SPAIN.

. • .
We have not received any farther particulars respect-
ing the dispute between the Spanish Government and
General IiIEGO. According to the statement in the
3/mviteur (see the STAR of 7esterday) he seems to
have aimed at powers inconsistent with public safety ;
but that a person of his grave character (the general
characteristic too of the.nation) should have got up
in the public Theatre to sing a song, intended to-es-
cite an,.l secure adherents, appears to us incredible:
it would, with such a people, produce a contrary
effect. It remains yet to be seen whether the intended
disbandment of the very Army which brgught about
the Revolution was not, as stated by Mem in his
Addresses t;) the'REco and the Cortes (see the STAR
of Saturday ), a measure originating under foreign in-
fluence. We cannot easily be hroUght to believe that
the person with whom the public liberty originated
stouhl dim at anything personal, especially when we
recoilect that both him and his Army refused an offer
of reward made to them by the Cortes. A little time
mill perhaps clear up some of thepresent mystery.—
The private accciunts differ from the statements in
e:e French Papers, in stating that Rim° has not been
miled, but sent to his quarters at Oviedo 'on half-pay.
Let us hope that his conduct will silence all his ene-
:Lies (if he has any), and that his dismissal may not
rove prejudicial to the, cause in which he has taken
so active a part.

" MADRID, AUGUST so.

4, The accounts of Slain, taken from the Courier,
ate by no means to be. relied On. There has been no
such revolution in ' Galicia; and everything is per-
fectly tranquil throughout the Peninsula. The
Cones ale taking measures that, I am persuaded,
will ensure the. prosperity of their country ; and the
system of titiance they are preparing, part of which
I have seen, will throw vast riches into the country.
—The Jesuits have been expelled, and the other
friars will meet the same fate, though not all at
once, as that would depreciate their property,
:No more money is to go (Alt of the country to Rome
for bulls and dispensations, and tithes will be abo-
lished. I have reformed my opinion respecting the
Spaniards, and begin to think they will again oc-
cupy the political character they have so long lost.
Usher Food regulations have been made for the inte-
rior; and a new code of laws is framing. An these
great reforms cannot be effected i❑ a day, but I think
tuo years will thew the beneficent disposition of the'
present Cortes. While I observe with pleasure the
pr: ~.iess of the human n,ind in this country, it is
painful to me to turn my eyes to my own, and see
the despicable figure our Ministers cut while prose-
cuting a woman with all the animosity that malice,
salumny, and immorality can invent. As an Eng-
ii,hman (and not one of those who least love their
country), 1 blush; as a nian, I am disgusted and in-
stigmata. An Englishman will forgive a man an in-
luiT, but never a violator of the public morals.—
TLe immortal Riego arrived here this morning."

We learn by a private letter from Bombay of the
425th of April, that a detachment of his Majesty's
47th Regiment was about to be dispatched, at the
d •te of this letter, for the Deccan, to quell an insur-
:onion which had brOken out among the Native
Princes at that place. It was not, however, thought
of any serious consequence at Bombay.
The cholera niorLus had again broken out at Cal-
cutta, and numbers perished daily.
The trade at Ilomlyty was at a complete stand ;
there was nu cotton for the regular ships, and a great
number were laid up on hall-pay.
