Catalonia, adding at the same time that even white
ribbons mere seen in the people's hats, similar to those
carried by the sed tious Catalans. Iranza restored the
King's confidence, by Veiling him that the people would
be quirt, and that suitable measures would be taken for
the purpose. The Municipality also engaged itself-to act
in like manner. In fact, before tl.e King entered the town
a decree was published, imposing the most rigorous
punishments upon all tho.e who, during the King's'
passage should utter any other cry than that of " Live

measures of precaution that the King entered Valencia.
BARCELONA. Om 6.

PRIVATE C4ll

A great deal is tasked bete of the speedy arrival of
the King of Spain in Barcelona. Repairs ate going on
in the interior of the Palace. The offices of the Captain
General, which were held there, have been removed to
the house of the Viceroy of NM. Two or three ships
of war belonging to the Spanish Navy which were in
this port, bare been sent to 'Tarragona. The Mem
bets of the Royal Audiencia of Catalonia have em•
barked for the same destination; they go to compli-
meat the. King.
It is believed that when his Majesty shall have quit-
ted Tarragona. the trial of the Chiefs of the Insurrection
will be proceeded on. Valuable documents have been
obtained from the Secretary of the Junta of. Manreea,
who bas ■tadaftis submissiott, by giving up documents
of an exueirsely interesting nature. It is affirmed. that
the heads of religious houses have received orderer to re-
pair to Tatra& na. whet, the Bishops of the Province
ate already arrived..

The int division ofSpaaish troops charged with the
stsbmisaion of the plovince, will this day pass into the
environs of Barcelona in three columns, one of which
will pass close under the walls; the second, to Igualada ;
and tbe third, between both, to Wallis. It consists of
about 3,500 infantry, 500 cavalry, and four pieces of
artillery.
It is said that the King has appeared greatly irritat►d
against Calomarde, whose reports respecting what took
place here were not exactly conformable to the reality.
An Extraordinary Courier, from Tarragona, arrived
here this morning. at eight o'clock.
The Junta of Manresa, as I informed you in my last,
is.dissolved. The Journal El Realista Catalan, which
appeased ia. tbis place, after having given an account
of this dissolution, terminated its discourse by a re-
quiescalia pass. The soldiers of the 2d, or Queen's
Regiment, oho had filen in favour of the malcontents,
now say, that they were forced in that respect to follow
the orders of their chiefs. Same subaltern officers, who
had offered to resist, were cut to pieces by the leaders
of the insurrection ; but the Junta relied very little on
the soldiers; the grenadiers and the light company
had alone preserved their arms.
The Marquis of Campo Sagrado returns to Bane•'
lona, after having obtained from Ferdinand permission
to remain there during the whole time his Majesty shall
remain in Catalonia.

JARTEACT OF A FAIVATS LATTER.

Oa the Sd, about 1,500 rebels entered this town, and
levied a comribution, which was paid them without re-
sistance. A recent example had taught the iiihabi-ants
to submit without a murmur to the exactions of the
factious. A short time since they had made an expe-
dition to a town in the district of Girona : but as their
demands were not instautly complied with, scarcely had
they entered tie town, when they hanged the Mayor
and the Secretary of the Municipality, in order to terrify
those who might dare to resist rebellion.

On the 4 h, 1,V.00 men of the Guard arrived from
Lerida at VaHo. The same day the Count D'Espagne,
with 4,000 infantry, 600 cavalry, and twelve pieces of
fit Id artillery, marched; this division defiled on the 6th,
under the walls of Bricelona, taking the road to Girona.
Yesterday Count D'Espagne was at Vitreres, four
leagues from that for ties;. Within the last three digs
the blockading force has been considerably reinforced;
it now amounts to 5,000 men. Meanwhile, Ballaster
appears very uneasy, and says, that he is anxious the
matter should be at an end, no matter what complexion
affrirs may take.
At Tarragona several thou:and persons have present-
ed themselves to demand to take advantage of the
amnesty, and give up their arms. It is thought that
the number will increase. The Chiefs are detained,
without any rigorous measure being enforced against
them

It is assessed that the infant Don Carlos is going to
travel in Italy, and thee the Infant Don Francisco de
Paola will come to France.
Scarcely any thing is spoken of at the Court of Tar-
ragona but a secret dispatch, which the King Ferdinand
had entrusted, to the Queen belore his departute, and
which was to bare been opened in the Couria-ef State,
of which the Queen is President, on the 29th of last
month. This document, according to what is affirmed,
will be inserted in the Extraordinary Gazette of Madrid.

HARWOOD V. GALIN.

Mr. PLATT opened the pleadings. - This was an ac-
tion of libel. The defendant pleaded, first, not guilty;
secondly, a general justification of the whole; and
thirdly, a justification of certain parts of the alleged libel.
Mr. Sergeant TADDY addressed the jury for the plain-1
tiff. In opening this case, he confessed he felt a very
deep interest for his client, who was a young man under
30 years of age, and who was employed for the first
time in the particular voyage in question, as a master
and commander of a vessel in the transport service.—
This vessel was called the Jupiter, lad the libel com-
plained of was published by the defendant, who is a
a Lieutenant in the Royal Navy, and who accompanied
the plaintiff in this voyage as superintendent or agent in
the transport service. The libel was contained in a let-
ter addressed to the Chairman and Committee at
Lloyd's, imputing to the plaintiff an incompetency to
the command of a weiseL That such should be the
tape wareaceedingly improbable, for his father was an
old Commander in the merchant service, and had'
brought up his son (the plaintiffiregularly to:the sea ser-
vice, and with that view had given him a good educa-
Bon._ fle bowl-Wm apprentice ow ineara a wserchasir,
vessel for_ several years, and he afterwards went
through the general gradations in that service, having
served as third, second, and first mate. In the
year 1825. when the transaction complained of
occurred, he was appointed by Mr. Mates, the owner
of the ship Jupiter, to the command of that vessel, she
beim about to proceed from London to Cork, and from
thence to Jamaica, for the purpose of conveying troops
to and from the West Indies. Having performed his
former duties to the satisfaction of the parties who had
employed him, he was promoted without hesitation, for
the first time, to the command. While be was in the
command of this vessel, it was his misfortune to incur
the displeasure of the defendant, who was a Lieutenant
in the transport service. This gentleman was an officer
in the Royal Navy, and it was customary for the Go-
vernment to employ many in his situation as the super-•
intendants of those merchant vessels which they might
employ for the transport of troops. The. defendant
was, in the present instance, employed to sail in the
Jupiter, and accordingly went out to Jamaica with
her. On the voyage he assumed a great degree of im-
portance, and appeared in a great measure to impose on
himself the command and responsibility of the ship.
The vessel, however, arrived at Port Royal, and on the
16th of February, the plaintiff received an order from
the defendant to proceed to Montego Bay, and by the
leeward passage, home to England. The Jury were, no
doubt, well aware that there are two passages from Ja-
maica to England, the one called the leeward and the
other the windward. They also, undoubtedly, knew
that the island of Cuba extended for a very considera-
ble length, and that, in sailing from Jamaica, it was ne-
cessary to go round, ether by the castor west. In the
present instance it was determir.ed to proceed by the
west, and in order to show how much the defendant had
assumed the command, the Learned Sergeant would
only refer to a note written by him to the plaintiff on the
18th February. It contain d :h s order, which was-writ-
ten about the time the defendant was going to bed :
" If the wind continues us at present, I desire the ship
may be tacked at 12 o'clock at night, so that she may
be close in shore in the morning. If, on the contrary,
it should fall off to the north north west, let her be. put
about directly." In consequence of this order the plain-
tiff proceeded to Montego Bay. In order to prosecute
the leeward passage, it was necessary to pass by Cape
Antonio. which was situated on the west side of the
island of Cuba, about where the Gulf ot Florida begins.
Of all situations upon the seas, there was hardly any so
difficult of navigation, or any that so abounded with
reefs and shoals, as the Gulf of Florida. The Jury
would observe, that in coming round tl..e Isle of Cuba,
it w..s a great object with the Captains of vessels to
keep as near in shore as it was possible to do with any
security, because the nearer you can keep to the land
the shorter will be the voyage. The libel in question
stated, that on the day on which the vessel passed Cape
Antonio, the Captain betrayed great ignorance of the
navigation, and ran the ship in great danger. It was
contained in a letter addressed to the committee at
Lloyd's, and was written immediately on his setting
toot is his native land at Portsmouth. It was in these
terms—" I beg to represent to you the conduct of Robt.
Harwood, commander of the transport Jupiter, from
Jamaica to London. The Jupiter sailed from Poet
Royal on the 16th of. February, and on the 25th was
run on :bore on the west side of the island of Cuba,
wberqsbq remained for an hoar and a half." The Learn-
-ed Sergeant admitted that that was true. she did run oa
alto e on the Lie of Cuba, where site remained for some

ing
.. . . ---. Learned Sergeant did not
mean to impute to Mr. Green that he would wilfully
withhold any knowledge which he possessed; but hi
certainly thought, if it could be evident to any one the;
she ship was in danger, he being otpdeck, an, experts
enced officer would have seen it, and, should have mt.
esunicated it to the master, who might have been less
bequainted with it. On the 28th of February
ppremustances occurred whiCh would require the
solar attention of the Jury. ' They had to passthetinif
of Florida. ' It so happened that the American Govetn•
t had erected a light house, which was sot marked
arty of the charts. It was raised to point out the Lli
ation of the dry Tortugas, which was well knowa
Ma very dangerous reef of rocks. On seeing this lights
there was a great doubt raised on board as to what it
coeld'be. Mr. Green expressed his•-opinion that It was
the Bahama Bank, which was at lease 100 rniim from
the place they actually were in. The plaintiff ordered
the ship to be put in a nurth-easterly course, which it
bad since appeared would have been the best possible.
Kr. Green, however, insisted that she should be put to
the north-west. The vessel was pot in this direction,
pad in consequence she came on shore on the dry Tot.
tugas. There were several witnesses who would prove
that the running on shore was entirely in consequence of
this order. The Lensed Sergeant then proceeded to read
other parts of the letter. The 'intendant begged to call
the attention of the Cornmitteeio the ciapmstance of
there being nalead lines in the wins at tillitime the ship
was in shallow water, and thamno order was given for
sounding, Now, that there were on lines in the chains,
was in words true. The vessel, as be had stated, was
pmplosect for the transport of troops, and be would
gio,'e it wls customary lot those vessels never to have
lied lines in the chains, for the soldiers, [or the purpose
of drying their clothes, would cut any lines they could
lay their hands on. t was, therefore, usual for Cap.
tains to put them out of their way ; he should have ne
difficulty, however, in proving that the lines were tit
readiness, and that a seaman was holding them for the
express purpose of sounding. The defendant's letter
went on to say, that in consequence ,of the master's
ignorance, on the 28th of February the ship was run
aground on the dry Tortugas. where she remained for
some time in great danger, beating on the *rocks. Now
that the vessel did go on tore on the dry Tortugas was
prfectly true, but it would be shewn that, far (reins
being the plaintiff's error, it was the defendant's. He
bad stated that be had been this voyage before; the
plaintiff never had, although he had been through al.
most every other part of-tne West India seas. The
defendant, therefore, had the best knowledge of the
:ship's situation, and of the dangers with which she was
surrounded; and surely. if he considered the, master
ignorant, was it not his duty to have taken the com-
mand himself, and thus, by his superior knowledge,
have prevented any anrident whatever? If he bad
not chosen to take the responsihility on himself, and
saw that the accident arose from unavoidable cit-
cmstxnces, he had no right to come to England
and publish statements which he must know would
be of the most injurious nature to the plaintiff.---
When Mr. Green gave it as his opinion that the
light was on the Bahama batik, the p!aintiff, on
the contrary. expressed his opinion that it must
be Cape Florida or the Martyrs. These were much
neater than the Bahama bank, so that the plaintiff cer-
,taittly displayed a better knowledge of their situation
than did Mr. Green. The defendant in his letter then
went on to say—'" Previous to striking on the Tortugas
the lead line was cast, and when the ship can e into ten
hifathoms, I advised the mater to come to anchor, but be
'said she would tide better in seven fathom!, and he let
her drift,.and consequently in a few minutes she struck."
Now this the Learned B.ergea t admitted might be true,
but could any man have s ippoied th.t the sl tp would
have ikon. in a moment from ten fathoms at once upon
die shore? In fact, there appeared throughout the Toy-
age to be no want of caution: the accident had °courted
solely from the circutn.ta,-ces he had described of cur-
rents and tides, which it etas impossible to account for.
It was considered necessary. after the ship bad been on
theTortugas, that she should be provided with a pilot,
and for that purpose the plaintiff went ashore in the
morning. Of this circumstance the defendant bad spoken
in the following terms —u On the morning after the
ship struck, the master had the presumption to leave
the ship at day light, and go on shore, where he re-
mined for about six hours." This was a most import-
ant charge, because, if a master of a ship having
troops on board, should think proper to go on shore,
and leave her in danger, be was guilty olla most un-
warrantable breach of dirty. The Learned Sergeant
would prove, however, that on the shore were a body
of people_ who have a most perfect knowledge of
the coast, and are called ~ wreckers." These mei-,
from their excellent local knowledge, were most va-
luable as pilots. It was with a view to get one of
these that the plaintiff had gone on shore, where he re-
mained for about three hours. When he returned, he
found that Mr. Green had thought proper to hire a
fisherman for a picot, whom he bad engaged at double
the pike for which the “ wrecker" cffered his services.
He would prove that the plaintiff was not absent for an
unreasonable time. and that he went for the sole pur-
pose of engaging &pilot, which be bad done; and be
