The ir aris Papers of Saturday arrived at a late
hour this\forenoon. Our attention is naturally first
attracted to the accounts from Spain, now an object
of such painful interest. We can scarcely say that
they are of a tranquillizing description ; hut, happily,
they add nothing new to the chapter of horrors.—
The following accounts are from the Gazette tle_,
France, which, it may be necessary to remark, is a
Paper unfavourable to the Constitutionalists :
"We learn, by letters from Bayonne of the 12th,
that the Liberales ofGalicia have succeeded in arrest-
ing about three hundred persons designated as the
most marked Anti-Constitutionalists of the province.
—ln this number are a great many ecclesiastics: it
appears that the plan was concerted beforehand. The
persons arrested have been conducted, under escorts,
to the prisons of Corunna.
" Letters from Madrid, of the 7th, state, that Me-
rino, against whom considerable forces were directed,
has not been exterminated, as pretended at Madrid.
On the approach of an enemy superior in numbers,
his corps dispersed among the mountains, and left
the Empecinado to make an easy victory. Ws have
not yet forgotten, in France, how, during our civil
wars, the intrepid Vendeans only disappeared from
the field of battle, to re-appear on the morrow more
united, and more strong. We know, besides, that
this method was that of the guerillas, and that it
was this which destroyed the power of Bonaparte."
The following is given in the same Paper, under
the head of Madrid, Bth May :
" Our city has been a little calmer for these last
twenty-four hours. Every moment couriers arrive
from the different provinces, and the news which
they bring is by no means tranquillizing. On a great
many points insurrection manifests itself, arrests
multiply, and lists of proscription circulate. The
popular ferment at Carthagena was very great.—
The arrest and exile of seventeen persons was de-
manded, among whom were the Governor of the
Province, the Treasurer of Finances ; the others are
Ecclesiastics and Officers of Marine. At Algesiras
the exile of a number of persons was demanded, and
eleven were seized and put into close confinement.—
They are among the most distinguished inhabitants
of the city. Aranda and Burgo de Ossuna shew
themselves very unfriendly to the Constitutional sys-
tem. They talk of tending some Agents to purify
these towns."

The proceedings in the House of Lords last night,
on the Grampound Disfranchisement Bill, will be
found of considerable interest. The Noble Lords in
Administration have divided on the subject—Lord
LIVERPOOL taking one side, and the LORD CHANCEL-
LOR another; but, as usual where the Treasury is
matched against the Woolsack, the former has pre-
vailed—in this case, we think, fortunately. Lord LI-
VERPOOL is in favour of the principle of the Bill—
that is, in favour of the principle of Reform. He
has taken the Bill, in fact, under his protection,
and there can be no doubt it will pass. His Lord-
ship, however, is not for conferring the privilege
forfeited by Grampound on the town of Leeds, but
as a less innovation on the existing order of things,
for adding it to Yorkshire, the population of which,
compared with that of other Counties, is, doubtless,
most inadequately represented by two Members.
Being of that order of Reformers who would rather
have 4 little than nothing, and disposed to be grateful
for every little, in the hope that we shall at last get
all we want, we are not disposed to quarrel with his
Lordship's alteration, and are happy to see that there
is no inclination on the part of the Lords on the
Opposition side of the House to divide against his
Loreship on this point.
The LORD CHANCELLOR was against the disfran-
thifng the Borough of Grampound altogether, and
proposed, as an adequate punishment on its freemet.,
for their recent abuse of the elective franchise, that
the inhabitants of the adjoining Hundred should be
let into a participation of the franchise ; but his
Amendment to this effect was negatived by a majo-
rity of 60 to 26.

We beg to refer our Readers to the Second Report
of the Committee on Foreign Trade, which will be
found in another part of our Paper. It appears to
us, that nothing can be fairer than the recommenda-
tion which it contains—that, without encroaching on
the privileges of the East•lndia Company, British
subjects shall have the same freedom, with respect to
the trade to India and China, as the Company allows
. to foreigners. We earnestly hope to see the recom-
mendation carried into effect before the present Ses-
sion of Parliament terminates its labours.

The following extract, which appears in a Bombay
Paper, from a letter written off Muscat, on board the
TMONMOUTH, gives an account respecting the late
disastrous affair at Alashkarrah, in the Persian Gulf,
which we are glad to find is more conformable to
the high character which the native troops of India
have to long and well sustained, than the official state-
ment of Captain THOMSON, published in the STAR of
Saturday last—a statement which calls for, and cer-
tainly will be followed by a public investigation.

We have received, through French and Flemish
Papers, a variety of new and interesting particulars
respecting the progress of the Greek Insurrection,
which we subjoin. The power of YPSILANTI seems
rather to recover importance, but more on account
of the inaction of the Turks than anything else. We
must not forget how proverbial the Turks are for the
slowness of their movements, but how enthusiastically
vigorous when once roused into action.
BUCHAREST, APRIL IS.
The following is, in a few lines, the substance of
all the events of hich we have, during these some
days past, been the witnesses :
" On the Bth, one Braczky, who gives himself out
to be an old Captain of the Austrian service, hoisted
the flag of the Greek insurrection, and immediately,
preceded by four trumpets, ran through the streets
of Bucharest, calling on the Germans,' To arms t
IThis man endeavoured to seize on the Austrian Con-
sulate, but he was vigorously repulsed. He suc-
ceeded, however, in drawing around him a number
of Germans, in spite of a very energetic Proclamation
of the Austrian Consul. Among the number was one
Adamsberger, employed at the Cannon Foundry,
and an Engineer, called D'Ott. The latter presented
to Theodore a very expensive plan for fortifying the
city. Theodore replied—' A ditch that a cow cannot
leap is all that is wanted
" Before the Proclamation of Prince Callimachi,
and the Anathema of the Patriarch of Constantinople
had spread inquietude among the Insurgents, there
arrived at Bucharest a very great number of young
Greeks from Odessa, Buda, and even Vienna. They
refused to enrol themselves under the standard of
Theodore, saying that they only knew Prince Ypsi-
lanti. This Prince did not appear at Bucharest till
the 9th of April, with some hundreds of followers,
and three wretched pieces of artillery. He had with
him Prince Cantacuzene, formerly General in the
Russian service, and decorated with several Orders.
All the Proclamations of Ypsilanti have a seal, the
impress of which is a Phcenix, with these words—
' Alexander Ypsilanti, Liberator of Greece.'
46 On the 10th, the official Declaration of the two
Emperors, relative to the insurrection, was generally
known. The unanimous cry was, 4We are all lost!'
In vain, to counterbalance a blow so terrible, did
Ypsilanti spread a report that the Pacha of Janina
had become a Christian, and was advancing with a
strong army to support the insurrection.
" On the 12th, we learnt that 700 Turks were
marching from Silistria against Bucharest. The fear
which even so weak a corps inspired was such, that
the Prince ordered the cloth which had been put into
the tailors' hands to be made into dresses for his
troops, to be immediately withdrawn ; and the same
evening he retreated precipitately on Tergowitz,
abandoning artillery, pikes, lances, and about 3000
bayonets, which he had caused to be fabricated.—
The Turks have not yet appeared."

The King's visit to Norway seems to be indefinitely
deferred. The Crown Prince has had a relapse within
these few days, but it was not thought of sufficient
importance to issue any Bulletins.
Count Schmarin, who founded the Debating So-
ciety, but which was forbidden by the Government,
has obtained from his Majesty leave of absence for
half a year, to-make a tour through Norway and
Sweden, with a view to the Statistics of the two
kingdoms.
A very bitter literary dispute respecting the politi-
cal opinions expressed in the work, Tessin and Tes-
siniana, has broken out between Count Adlersparre,
the anonymous author of a criticism on the work,
and President Baron Von Ehrenheim, the author of it.
The first of May, which is a popular festival for
the citizens of Stockholm, was favoured by the finest
weather. As soon as the King, with a numerous and
splendid suite, appeared in the Park, the most lively
acclamations and cries of joy resounded on every side.
Her Royal Highness the Princess was likewise there
with her Court. All the Foreign Ministers were pre.
sent; among whom the British Ambassador, Lord
Fitzgerald, and the Spanish Ambassador, Chevalier
Moreno, were particularly distinguished by their ex-
pensive and splendid equipages.

Power. We expect him here in a few days. Ypsi-
lanti is reported to have joined Theodore, for the
purpose of going, with 30,000 men, to assist the Ser-
vians. The Provisional Government, consisting of
twelve Boyars, have commenced its functions with
sending an humble Address to the Sultan, 'begging
the appointment of a new Prince, in the room of
Prince Suzzo, who bas run away, and the pardon of
all that has been done in Moldavia contrary to the
will of the inhabitants. With this Petition a Depu-
tation has been sent to the Pacha at lbrailow, who
will forward it to Constantinople.
The Government has allowed the importation and
exportation of all articles of commerce. The former
tranquillity is nearly restored in Moldavia. The few
Greek soldiers still remaining in Jassy have laid aside
their uniforms since they received information of the
Declaration of his Majesty the Emperor of Russia.
The Wallachian peasants who had joined Theccbre,
are in the greatest dejection, since they see them-
selves disappointed in their views. They had been
promised that their supposed rights should be en-
forced at Bucharest, and that they should be allowed
to plunder the houses of the Boyars, and now they
say all is to be employed for the advantage of the
Greeks, with whom they have no concern. Above
400 of them have already abandoned Theodore. The
Boyars at Bucharest have, in concert with Theodore,
drawn up another Petition to the Porte, which they
sent on the 10th to Constantinople by a messenger of
their own.
