Committee --Of Legislation recommended Os abolition of
the dati.s called " (iceboat".. In the pitting, of the.
19th, a constitutional question relative to the Royal
'Went to laws was discussed. The Constitution rm
qnires that a law shall be passed or rejected, mithie thirty
days after it is presented to the KING for his signature.
It hail been referred to the Cointnittee of Legtslation'i
to consider whether the time which elapsed during the re
-
moral of the Government was to be reckoned in the
periml within which his Majesty should give his assent to
the plan of a law which had been agreed to by the GJrtes
in May last. The Commlttei expressed an opinion, that it
would not become the Cartes to take advantage of the estraor-
(finery circumstances which had occurred; and recommended
that other copies of the law should be presented to his Majesty,
allowing him the days which remained to make op the thirq,
after reckoning from the 49th of May to theist ofJune, and re-
garding the consideration of the assent as suspendad from the
Jet of June to the date on which the new copies should he sob-
milted to the King. Af•re some debate, the Cartes decided,
on a division of SO to 2.5, that there was ground for voting on
the report of the Committee, and it was finally agreed to with-
out any amendment. hinny civil and military officers have
given up part of their pay and emoluments during the war.—
General Alava is one of the number.

TUESDAY EVENING. AUGUST 26, ISI3.

SOCCIL EXCUANGt, T‘VELYIL O'
CLOCK.—Consols opened
this morning at 82ii, at which price they have remained,
with little or no Wainer, doing. This is generally the
case on Tuesday, as an Express from Paris seldom comes
on that day.

Thursday near being setting day at the Stock Exchange,
most parties are busy in making up tbeir accounts. The de-
spatches received by Government from Sir C. Stuart, at
Paris, are thought to be of importance, as they were sent
from Bologne in a galley. by the British Consul.

FOREIGN MARICRT.—LittIe or no business has been done
this morning in the aborr market, except in Poyais Bonds.
which are now at 10i to I I prem.
The public are antionsly waiting for the account of what
passed yesterday at Paris. Great expectations are entertain-
ed that the King of France would say something on the affairs
of Spain.

The Bayonne papers of the 18th inst., which have arrived
this morning, are chiefly occupied with speculations on the
effect of the defection of the Spanish Generals, and with
attempts to shew that the Constitutional Government is
nearly at an en.l. The evidence produced consists of letters
from ;individuals of different sentiments and in different
parts of Spain ; the firatof which is alleged to be from an
',Seer in the army of Ballasteros; and is as follows :
A N DUJ Aft,A The submission of Ballasteros will
doubtless surprise all the friends of liberty; but without
entering into the detail of all the causes which have led to•
it, I will content myself with observing, that the General
was not possessed of the necessary qualifications to conduct
his army in the difficult ciocantstanees in which it was
placed. He was not able to direct the military administra-
tion,to combat, or to raise the spirits of his troops, which were
' discouraged by a retreat of ISO leagues, without any
resources bat arbitrary requisitions, which would in the
end hive raised the inhabitants against us. The Cortes
from whom we received only reprimands, hat no succour,
became sensible, when it was too late, of the inability of
Ballasteros. The French have profited ny the disorder and
our dissensions. Some of the principal officers in the staff,
beginning with the General, were gained, so that in less
than a week we saw en army of 20,000 men dispersed, and
in tine, vanish ; whereas, if it had been properly commanded,
we might hare acquired the greatest glory. I now expect
nothing, but disorder antrdefection smug the rest of oar
troops, who cannot make any resistance to the enemy. I
shall, therefore, take the first opportunity to return to you,
and to repose, after my btigne."

The following extract) from a letter, dated Corunns,
the 4th inst., is said ,to have been written by a Gentleman
belonging to one of the first commercial houses in Bilbao,
who serves in the Militia:—

" I still exist, though by miracle, after the fatigues and
the privations that we have endured since we left Bilbao.
It is notorious, that the column of the militia of the three
Provinces, especially those of Bilbao, have defended the
entrance of the Asturias for two months, without any other
aid than 300 or 400 soldiers of the line,of Campillo. Con-
tinually fighting with the corps of General Huber, we ar-
rived here in time to take part in the defence of this town.
All my calculations have been falae, and, except 4 or 5,000
old soldiers, and about 2,000 militia, we had no means to
oppose an enemy, so protected by sea and laid ; for our
unhappy Chiefs, after having compromised us, and taken us
from oar homes, have basely deserted us. I see no means
of protracting the resistance of these places, unless we
would sacrifice ourselves. Those among us, therefore, who
ere the most conspromiacd, are freighting a vessel for Eng-
land, whence I will write to Bilbao. Wedo not know what
is passing out of the town; but what mast we think when
Qnirop, abandoning his soldiers embarks ? Since we
have left Bilbao, we hive had 21 militiamen killed, 30
wounded, and 5 missing, or prisoners "
The following letter was written by a person
attached to the Regency at Madrid, dated the 14th, We

trarlatS it weed for word:--" Madame—The alfairbf
Negros b settled ; our triumph is no 'Unger doubtful, alty
tst.e the& their complete defection in all parts of die Penki-
sits. Prom the events in Galicia and Andalusia, we Imp
expect the speedy deliverance of one master, which will be
followed by the surrender of the fort,eues *Lich are still
din tbe bands of the revolutionists. I send inclosed a paw
port for your son—send it by an express to Cartliagena, and
persuade him to take advantage as soon as possible of the
assistance of yo'ne friends to return to you and abjure the
party of the Rebels."
The decree of the Doke of Angouleme, ordering the
release of persons arbitrarily imprisoned, is stated to have
produced in general a salutary effect. Six hundred per-
sons confined in the prison of Madrid have been restored
to liberty. About fifty are to be brought to trial, but
these too have solicited the clemency of the Prince. The
mediation of Holstead is now generally spoken of. The
Congitotional party are said to wish it. Addresses continue
to be sent to the Regency, desiring the establishment of
the ancient system in its fullest extent, and pamphlets are
published which, refering to these addresses, blame the
Prince for objecting to institutions which the present
state of Spain demands; and "predict all kinds of disasters,
if a Constitution, liberal even in appearance, is to be
maintained. •

The Holy Alliance is likely to meet with a check in its
infamous career, upon which it did not calculate. It was
known that liberal opinions had made a great progress in
all the German Stares. The constant railing at the ty-
ranny of the French Government, and the frequent oppor-
tunity of contrasting it with the domestic tyranny of
Germany, enabled the reflecting to perceive their tree situ-
ation with respect to the Governments under which they
were placed; and when Napoleon was overcome, and the
old system reestablished, it was discovered that even the
military sway of the French armies was not more repulsive
to the habits of freemen, than the despotism to which they
were subjected by their native princes. A sudden re-action
of opinion took place, when it was found that like the ass in
the fable, the people were tobe still slaves, whoever was their
masters, and the States of Germany became deeply imbued
with Republican sentiments. They still continue to he so:
but the perfection of the military despotism in the various
States, prevents them from any expression of sentiment ;
and while the various rulers had agreed in their hatred to
liberal opinions, and the common proscription of them, the
people might have waited for ages for a favourable opinion
of throwing off the yoke. Bat, fortunately for the progress
of liberal opinions, there appears in some of the Govern-
ments of the minor States, a disposition to resist that
over-weening despotism, which will be satisfied with
nothing less than the extinction of every liberal idea.
Bavaria and IVurtemberg stand at the head of this
party, in which the rulers wisely prefer to concili•
ate the spirit of the age; and, although they are
not able to make any formidable head against the brute
force of the leaders of the conspirators against the rights
of humaeity, they have rendered great service to the de-
velopment of the tree principles of Governments, by foster
ing the spirit of enquiry, and furnishing a means of express-
ing the sentiments of the enlightened who wish to be free.—
This has drawn down upon them the most decided enmity of
the leading Powers of the Continent ; for they know that i
there is any shelter for such principles, so that they may
tike firm root, they will ultimatelz spread through the
whole alliance ; and the result will be, that only the Mo-
narchs and their mercenary saves will be arrayed on one
hand in behalf of the " Monarchical principle, " while
on the other hand, the people, with all the Wiso
and honest at theirlread, woald be embattled in behalf of the
Representative principle; and when this result is obtained
the formal abolition of Monarchy would follow as a mat;
ter of course. Russia, Prussia, aild Austria, see this; and
abandoning all the ancient principles of monarchical Go-
vernment, which went to the acquisition of new territory,
they make common cause against the people of the respec-
tive States,—each tyrant holding himself in readiness to aid
his brother despot in the maintenance of an unjust art:ho•
rity. Any disposition on the part of any 0 wernment, to
liberalize the system, is considered as a declaration of war
against the Holy Allies; and every spark of liberality must
be crushed under foot as soon as it appears, lest it Amid
improve-to a blaze which could not be extinguish-
ed.—The more liberal Governments of Germany are
therefore about to pnt under the ban of the Alli
ante; and nothing bat the want of power would restrain
the proscription to the Continent. Switzerland hIS been
ordered to close the asylum% she was wont to afford to the
stranger. The liberty of the press, it is said, weer existed
in the Cantons; but this is not correct. The ertstodt of
using the pre .s was not very extensive amongst them ; but
there was no prohibition of its use. Now it is formally
fettered by the express orders of the tyrannic Allies ; and
their orders hive also been issued throughout Germany
and Italy, to suppress all the publications that dare be ho-
nest ; and to warn all who might be disposed to utter their
sentiments, of the danger of so doing. But even this
does not' satisfy the Despots; beams., although they
claim a species of authority little abort of the omni-
potence of the Deity, their power to enforce it falls much
below what is requisite. They cinnat be alwa7s
present to enforce their wishes: amid they find that to
punish the pzomulgaturs of truth is not to des:roy the mis
chief of its promulgation to their authority. Hence they
wish their system jo be perfected by having souse devoted
union of authority at the head of the smallest subdivision of
territory; with a force at hand ready to be called upoa, in
ease of emergency, to carry into effect any measures of pe-
t/talk* that may be deemed requisite. Such a system never
could be perfected. The very satraps of despotism, in such
cues, often rebel against it, and torment their masters
almost as much as the dread of liberty can do ; but it is the
fatuity of despots to aim at what they cannot accomplish.

1

and to help to destroy their own authority by extetoti!,g it
'beyond the hounds which Nature sets to the po,;er of go.
ierning by despotic means. The Berman Diet its....lf,
comprises the elements of resistance to the system of the
more powerful members; and we are told that a Congress is
in contemplation, to take measures to subdue this spirit.—

A circular has been sent to invite aft the members of the
Dirt to assemble in October next, to consider of means to
" introduce into the system of government in Germane,
" a greater similarity and uniformity; thereby to strength'
" en the ties which must unite all the members of the con-
" federation." The account adds, that " this circular bag
" caused it to be believed and generally reported, that the
" affairs of Germany are to be regulated at Vienna, under
" the influence of the Holy Alliance." No doubt this is
intended to be the case. The Majority of the memb•re
of the Diet are at the disposal of th • three great Powers;
and ahateyerdetermination the Alliance might wish, would
be arrived at, notwithstanding the objection of the Mia
oority. In such a case, the liberal Governments should
refuse to attend ; because their interests are meant, before
hand, to be uctificed ; and it is meant to cover the
tyranny, by the pretence that the decision was the
act of the Majority; and that the Minority mast
abide by it. We are told that " the Government of
"'Bavaria has refused to send a representative to this Con.
" yen, and that Wurtemberg has followed the example."
This is right. The question is one that each Government
should decide for itself; and which ought not to be sub-
mitted to the decision of any assembly, the majority of which
woald come prepared to take one side of it, at all hazards,
and without reference to any other reason than the commands
they might hare received. The Holy Allies, however, are
not likely to be put from their purpose by any such con-
duct: and there can he little doubt that they will attempt,
even by open force, to crush all opposition to their despotic
madness. To this crisis we look for the commencement
of an epoch which will rid the Continent for ages front
the " monarchical principle." The German is slow
to move; but when he is moved, he is active and
energetic. The power of Napoleon prevailed, until his pre-
ference of ambition to the good of mankind, roused the
feelings of the peasant and the citizen against him; and
then the colossal power, and the mighty genius, which had
defied the combined power of all the tyrants of Europe,
dissolved before the concentration of public opinion, as
quickly as the ice melts before the rays of the sun, or as
the shades of evening retire from the approach of the dawn.
All that we wish is that the public opinion should be pro-
voked as decidedly by the Holy Alliance ; and the folly of
its members bids fair to gratify us in this respect. The
affairs of Europe were never on a more unstable footing
than they are at present. Wherever the politician steps,
lie treads upon quicksands. The ground trembles every
where around him; and he knows where to place
his foot, in the old world, and to say this to-morrow will
be terra-lirm a.

In Sweden, there is a little of that spirit stirring, which
gives us an occasional indication. that there is such a thing
is public feeling. A motion has been made in the Chamlet
of Citizens to reduce the army ? on which a Mr. Linstrom
nude a remark which we recommend to the notice of Mr.
Haskisson. He said that " a penny saved in the pod -et
of a subject, is an increase of the internal prosperity of the
country, and tire best defence against hostile attacks; as
people like what is their own; and those who possess
nothing, have neither courage nor energy." A full Tres
sury commands the mercenary services of military hire.
tinge ; but the arm of the citizen soldier can only be
inspired-by the knowledge that be strikes in defence of his
own stake in the common weal, as well as for the benefits
which he derives from a proper administration of its affairs
in common with his fellow citizens. Hence, the Treasury
should be kept low, that the resources of the State may im-
prove; and the system should be good, that the love of the
people may bring them spontaneously to its defence.

The following is given in a morning pc per as an extract
of a letter. dated Madrid, 11th August, receivod from their cor-
respondent yesterday :—" There vs an understanding between
all parties that a Con.tituti on is formed end agreed upon for
Spain ; but it is In some respects so hostile to the present sys-
tem of tile Royalists and Clergy. that the French dare not ven-
ture to expose their plans, until the force In Madrid shall he
augmented to at least fifteen thousand men. At present there
ere not here more than three thousand effective troops. The
new Constitution, or Charter, embraces the French and Enc.-
lisle systems combined. It is understood that the King sill
remain in Cadiz until the new arrangements shall be conso-
lidated."

Count Nesselrode has adaressed a note. to the Reis Effendi.
The Russian Government in this eammuuication professes to
found its claims on ttie faith of treaties, and to feel solicitude
for the welfare of the Turkish empire. It. however, declines
to renew the ordinary forms of diplomatic intercourse by so
embassy at Cons.autinople until the Porte shall put into a train
of execution its promise to evacuate Wa•achia and Moldavia.
to grant the inhabitants of those provinces the privileges COD-
rerred upon them by tre ..lee. and to arrange the other points in
dispute. The language of Count Nesselrode is moderate, and
is at least respectable on the pert of Russia, whether it be he►
purpose to temporize or to re-establiari peace.

Letters have been received from Marseilles, stating that
the whole of the Turkish fleet has been destroyed by the
Greeks, with the exception of tem sail, and that these escaped
in a wretched condition.—The same letters state that the
Greeks have been successful beyond their hopes in Landis
—that by stratagem they induced the Turks to make a
sortie in great numbers fro t Itetimo, where their retreat
was cut off. In all, 16,009 Turks have lately met their
fate in that Island. In Thessaly, Macedonia, and the
Pelopontresus, success has also attended the exertions of the
Greeks. _ _ _

Acct. 20.—Monday, at two o'clock. Patrick
Isis, of Askraton, convicted at the Conttty Assizes, of attack-
ing :he dwelling of Lancelot Santis, r,q.. at Mount Plea-
sant, underwent he awful sentence of the law, at the front
of the County gaol. The wretched man was fifty-eight
years of age, quite grey, and seemed to meet his fate n ith
becoming. fortitude. Previous to the fatal minute that was
to take his soul to the presence of his Goo, he ta (pleated
the Rev. Mr. O'Halloran, who zealously ministered every
spiritual comfort to the unfortunate tnan since his con-
viction, to address a few words to the asirmilled
tale as from him. Mr. O'Halloran feelingly told them
that he was instructed by the sufferer before them to say,
that to drink be chiefly attributed his -untitnely end; he,
therefore, beseeched them, an they valued their characters
and lives, to abstain from the excessive use of spirituous
liquors—it wan his misfortune that he had not done so. Mr.
O'Halloran then said, that Iris acknowl dged the justice
of his sentence, having been at Ow attack on Me. Sands'
house; but that 'mowed it to his chsrarter to deny that he
had ever planned that attack, or been the chief instigator on
. the unfortunate occasion ; on the contrary, the plan was
got up by the informer, Sheehan, who swore away his life;
Le also denied that any species of force or compulsion•was
used to oblige the party to go there ; and he firmly denied
what Sheehan swore as to !via's having said, that if they did
not shoot 31r. Sands, they ha I no business to show their
faces to bum again—all dila he deemed to he untrue ; but
he now forgave Sheehan from the hot!om of his heart.
Mr. O'Halloran then impressed upon the multitude the ne-
unity of obedience to the laws, and the evidence they then
bad before them of the folly of placing any confidence in
each other in a bad cause. Mr. O'llalloran's address
seemed to make a very deep impression en the crowds be-
low, and in a short time after the unfortunate Ivis was
launched into eternity.

A meeting was held in the Town ball, nn Friday last, in

bution of wine and eatables to thous who are disposed to
scramble for them; temporary theatres have been erected
in the open spaces of the gardens, for the exhibition of
rope dusting, and other holiday fetes; fr linen for fire
works are already made n ithin sig let of the Thuilleries, and
appropriate artists have already trimmed their lamps for

FRANKFORT, Aug. 19.—The Genoa Gazette relates, as it
