NEWS- FROM SPAIN.

Yesterday morning, M. hives, a Spanish General
Officer, entrusted with a diplomatic mission to:
United States of Amerita, arrived at Paris. He left
Madrid on the 3d, that is to say, lubsequently to all
the letters and Gazettes hitherto received, which are
not later than the SI st ult. The Spanish Embassy,
and probably the French Govorninent, have accounts
of what passed in Andalusia after the 26th, and it
Madrid after the 31st ult. to the-3d inst. The fol•
lowing are details, which appear to have escaped
the usual diplomatic reserve.
The insurrectional movement, of which Cadiz was
the theatre, on the day of the 24th, ought not to be
regarded as a fortuitous event, or one of little im-
portance. A part of the garrison, joined by a num-
ber of the inhabitants, formed the tumultuary assem-
blage ; exclamations of " Long lice the Constitution
and the Cortes r served as the rallying cry. They
went towards one of the gates of the city, in order to
open it to the insurgents ; who, on their side, made
demonstrations of attack, and seemed only to wait
the success of this movement of the inhabitants: The
gua'rd posted at the gate were nearly two hundred
strong, and received the assailants with a volley of
musketry the combat was short, but bloody. The
Chiefs of the commotion disappeared ; they effected
a safe retreat, either in the city or out of it; they have
not been arrested.

The spirit of internal dissension is not extinguished ;
it is only restrained. The Governor feels himself in
a situation of the greatest embarrassment. The au-
thors cf the commotion, among others Colonel San-
tiago Rotalde, belong to the principal families of
Cadiz. The latter is married to the daughter of a
Lieutenant-General of the Royal Marines. The
Royalists put great trust in the Marines, whose fide-1
lity various measures have been taken to confirm ;'
but things may take such a turn as to render their
assistance necessary on board the ships. General

Villa-Vivencio, who commands the squadron, wishes,
at all hazards, to prevent the ships falling into the
hands of the Insurgents ; were such an event to hap-
pen, the consequences would be incalculable.
The bead-quarters of the Royal Army were fixed
to be at Xeres, on the 27th ; General Freyre was to
be there in person on the 28th. The distance between
Xeres and the bridge of Suazo. before the Isle of
Leon„ is ten Spanish leagues, or about sixteen post
leagues. It is impossible not to perceive a great
slowness and much hesitation in the march of Gene-
ral Freyre; the Court is very uneasy at it.
A report was current at Madrid, that an advanced
guard, of between seven and eight hundred men, of
the Royal Army, bad had an engagement with the
Insurgents, at a league's distance from the Isle of
Leon; and according to all that appears, after ex-
changing some rounds of shot; the soldiers of Freyre
passed over to the other side.
No letter from Andalusia has arrived at Paris by
the last Courier.—Ceostitutionnel.
The French Consul at Cadiz has addressed a let-
ter, dated the 18th January, to the Members of the
Chamber of Commerce of Bayonne, in which he an .
nounces to them, that the Quarantine of Observation
which had been imposed on that City, had ceased
