TUESDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBER 13, 1836.

The pressure of matters of local importance, and the
report of the proceedings at Newton, prevented our giv-
ing, in our Friday's impression, the names of the mem-
bers of the new French cabinet,—we now append the
list, as prepared for that day, and we have to add, that
our Thursday's intelligence is corroborative of the ap-
pointments which appeared 4in a royal ordinance, pub-
lished in the Moniteur of Wednesday.
FRANCE.—The preliminary steps towards the completion of
the new French Cabinet have, at length, been taken. The
Constitutionnel furnishes us with the following list of the cabinet :
—M. Mole, Minister for Foreign Affairs and President of the
Council; M. Gasparin, Minister of the Interior, with M. de
Remusal as Under-Secretary; M. Duchatel, Minister of Fi-
nance; and Marshal Soult, Minister at War—the duties to be
performed by the Marshal Count Molitor, ad interim ; Admiral
Rosamel is to be Minister of Marine; and M. Guizot Minister
of Public Instruction. The list furnished by the correspondent
of the Times doe's not materially differ, but gives the additional
names of M. Dumont, as Minister of Commerce, and M. Persil,
Minister of Justice. This is the party of the Journal des Debats ;
but that paper furnishes nothing on the subject. Altogether,
this ministry, as composed, may be taken as a much more effi-
cient one than the last, and should it even disclaim the principle
of a positive armed intervention in Spain, it is not likely to stoop
to that temporising policy which signalised the cabinet of M.
Thiers. As a war minister, notwithstanding his advanced age,
Marshal Soult is unquestionably one of the ablest men in France.

It is said that another attempt has been made by the republi-
can party to get up another revolutionary display ; and that it
has been discovered as !usual by the police. The particulars
had not fully transpired on the 28th. The Monileur state's that
the telegraphic despatch from Bayonne announced the prepara-
tion, by the Carlists, of another expedition to Arragon.
The deserters from the English legion at St. Sebastian, to the
number of one hundred and fifty, were to be passed through
France to Calais, in parties of twenty each, the English govern-
ment having refused assistance to bring them home.

The letters from Madrid state that an ordinance has passed to
render disposable the services of the Natiunal Guard.
A royal decree .has also been issued ordering a conscription
levy of 50,000 men; from the ages of 18 to 45, with liberty to
purchase exemption from service.
The crisis of affairs in Spain it would appear has led to the
recently concluded formation of the French ministry. Marshal
Soult had not arrived in Paris, but the war department remained
open for his acceptance. Should he refuse, it is said Marshal
Molitor will have the post of honour; and it was generally cur-
rent that Marshal Gerrard would go ambassador to Madrid.
The French Funds had experienced no marked variation.

From Spain we have no fresh intelligence of interest
relative to military operations beyond a report that a
body of the soldiers, which lately marched from the capi-
tal, had been attacked by the Carlists, about forty miles
from thence, on the Ist and 2d instants, and completely
routed, with the loss of their baggage, ((v. the rev olution-
ary materiel?) and that a body of National Guards, under
the royal ordinance, had been rendered disposable for the
succour of the northern army.

From Saint Sebastian we learn, that Brigadier General
Shaw had thrown up his commission, in consequence of
a personal misunderstanding with the Commander-in-
chief, Evans. Mutiny and desertion amongst the brave
Legionites " the order of the day."
SPAIN.—Our latest intelligence from this ill-starr'd country
does not furnish any new matter of striking interest beyond the
daily accumulation of incidents connected with the insulting
arrogance of the movement party and the pitiful condition of
the Queen Regent and her new ministry, its servile dependents,
if we except the proclamation of Sergeant Garcia addressed to

the Madrid journals, wherein this hero of a revolution justifies
himself and his brave constitutional followers for their orderly
deeds at St. Idelfonso, before a defenceless woman, on the occa-
sion of their compelling her, as Queen Christina, at the peril of her
life, and with the refined murders of Malaga before her eyes,
to accept the free constitution of 1812.

This document, produced by the braggart asserter of a people's
rights, affords us another very decent specimen of the genuine
quality of democratical law, unrestrained by a superior control-
ling power. This fellow, who has the impudence to put himself as a
leader,having been already dubbed a captain,after a bombastic dis-
play about liberty—the rights of the heroic Spanish nation, and
her desire for a constitution, has the further audacity to declare
his devotion to the cause of Isabella and her illustrious mother,
under his partisanship, denouncing at the very same moment
the ministers she had called to her counsels! His manifesto,
which, under the colour of a declaration of loyalty, is a
tissue of ignorant declamation throughout, against the real
and presumed opponents of the constitution, ends with an
indirect menace against all the enemies of Spain who shall
oppose it—this document of freedom, as may be supposed, has
passed without any observation from the parties composing the
government of his indulgent queen mistress, who are glad, fur
the present, to put themselves under the formidable protection
of Sergeant—we beg his pardon, Constitutional Captain
Garcia !

The next affair, of any importance, is the march of the Prw-
torian band of soldiers, composing the late garrison of Madrid.
These worthy subordinates, imitating the good example of Ser-
jeant Garcia, after demanding and receiving all their arrears of
pay, were, at length, drawn off by General Levane to the army
of the north, but not until the veteran soldiers had been sent
three times back to the capital on various pretences. This is a
petty state of things, truly, when an armed banditti, falsely
calling itself an army, dictates the law, and demands and re-
ceives the immunity of halting and marching at its own plea-
sure; and yet our associated Liberals, our "guardians" of the
people's rights in England, herald forth the progress of anarchy
and insubordination in Spain, and tell us, that it is all conge-
nial with the principles of justice, because the people, that is,
the ill-governed, and, consequently, ungovernable multitude will
have it so, "Le povrle le vent" is their jacobinical watchword ;
