GENERAL ELECTION.

TO THE 'WORTHY AND INDEPENDENT LIVERY
• OF LONDON.
Giwrs.xxxte, •
.
THE success which ll4ve.experiented during-my
Canyass, has exceeded mfmost san_gulms expectations and
has removed all apprehensions as tbtkt result of the cciiffest. ' I.
had some reason to .fear, when I offered myself to your notice,
that my competitors, experienced in the business of Election,
and baying more command of their time, might have already
'Engaged the exclusive support of Gentleinen Whose. political
bias bad identified they with opposing parties, ' This impedi-
ment, formidable to a new Candidate; did not deter use, and the
flattering reception with-which I hive invariably been greeted,
hai convinced me that I did not over-rate the reliance I placed
' upon you.
In my Address of the 17th ult. I made you acquainted with
muretensions, and my Sub-Committees have afforded me the
highest satisfaction in reporting the ready accordance of the Li-
very with what I advanced.
I had occasiol. to make sly apology, in a recent Advertise-
ment, for not having been more generally seem amongst you.
Tlie delay is attributable to the peculiarly heavy Public engage-
ments which press upon me, and to a determination not to per-
mit any pursuit, however dear to me, to interrupt the discharge
• of my tacial duties; I entreat you not tb allow this circumstance
to operate to ray prejudice. I could rot be mute usefully nor
more pleasantly engaged, than in cherishing a familiar intercourse
syth the whole of the Liveryoto whom I feel already so much
day cf Election being fixed for-Tummy, the ith Instant,
mot earlic-tly request the favour of your early attendance at
Guildhall in aiy behalf, and remain,
'With t:te greatest respect,
Sour faithful and obedient servant,

Ereyre.... He was imme4iately'reeognized by a-ma- •
jority cilthe InsurgentOffrcers, 4419,, far from treat•-•
ing him,asa. spy, .welcomed hiair.-mosCkindly, and'

they Sent hiriiiiick to General Freire with a letter,
inviting that individual to join their party.
Riego left his division fora short time at Algesiras,
and went in person to Gibraltar, where, in a few
hours, he negotiated a loan of 100,000 dollars for
the Insurgent Army.
Marc Aguero, one of the most active agents of the
Insurrection, went to London for the same purpose.
He found no difficulty in accomplishing his object.
It is 'certain that Riego has•had an engagement
with the division of O'Donnell; that the Royal Cara-
bineers, who alone gave battle, met with very awk-
ward treatment ; that the remainder of the division
refused to fight, and that two regiments of cavalry
went over fo the side of the Insurgents.
The consequence of this affair was, that General
Fleyre had disarmed and sent into the interior four
Regiments, oa which he thought that he could not
perfectly rely.
There is no longer any doubt of an insurrection in
the Asturias.
A very remarkable circumstance is, that the Royal
Vales, which had no longer any circulation,: have re-
gained some credit. The only plausible explanation
of this species of phenomenon is, that arbitrary power
.had destroyed public credit, and that the hope of
better times, distant and vague as it is, aiising out
of a Constitutional form of Government, has.beenl
sufficient to restore confidence to the Creditors of the,
State.—Constitationnel, March 9..
Extract of a letter from Cadiz, February 14.
:
It is to be presumed that very alarming news, on
the political condition of our Sovereign, must have
produced distrust in the minds of certain persons
Cadiz, however, still enjoys the same tranquillity.
The few Insurgent troops that there are here have not
been able to enter it. They are at the distance of,
four leagues, and we hope that in a few days they
will be exterminated. Thus you see that an affair,
which must, doubtless, have been exaggerated in fo-
reign Papers, does not deserve much attention:—
Gazrite de Fiance.

The Journals of Cadiz, of the 1 lth of February,
which- have reached us, contain several Ordinances
of GenerariTaldes, the Governor, in which he pre-
scribes divers measures ,of policy, which circum-
stances rend,m- necessary. He has prohibited plays,
balls, masks, and other diversions of the Carnival ;
he also has prohibited any greater number than three
persons to assenible and travel se the city. It is not
allowed to pity on the guitar, or to sing in the streets;
and the shops wilere confectionary and liquors are
sold,. are ordered t': be shut at nightfall. The,,e mea-
sures were enforced lot the three days of the Carnival
