The Paris papers of Sunday, which arrived to day,
add little to the information we had previously received
respecting the internal state of Spain. That agitations,
though exaggerated by misrepresentation for the pur-
pose of extending them, actually exist is that country
to a degree that occasions to its well wishen snidely
and concern, is a fact too obvious to be denied; and
that under the circumstances is which that country
was•placed before its revolution, and connected with
the reforms which the promoters of that revolution
contemplated, it wonld have been nothing leas
than a Miracle if no opposition or agitation
had taken place. In the mode pursued to bring
about that important change. in the establish-1
mint, the character, and the proceeding of the Cortes,
and in the harmony effected between them and the
throne, there was every cause, even in the breast of
the most fastidious politician. for approbation and ap-
plause. The calm, yet imposing attitude the nation
assumed, and the moderate yet energetic spirit with
which its objects were pursued, called forth the cordial
clagratulations of all whose hearts were alive to the
interests of civil liberty ; sad a sew era appeared to
open to human improvement. The commies of free-
dom contemplated the scene with envy, and like
Ike first enemy of the human race grinned
Inwrihly a ghastly smile." They soon prog-
aosticated disturbance instead of the tranquillity
that bad prevailed, and soon seised the opportunity of
promoting the mischrifs they pretended to foresee.
They confided in the resentment which the Priests
would be disposed to shew on the curtailment of their
easolensents and power ; and on the approach of those
armies which bad marched foe the restoration of so-
cleat despotisms, took occasion to excite that resost-1
soot into action. The agency of the Pante 111

KING'S TORATSIL—The msdience last night were
wish another novelty at this Amen in the person
Of Mme. Peony Bias, who mole hat fret appearance be-
fogs ad Beglish audiences in the divertisement between
thd win of the opera. She performed a pas std. sod
cloaca ie a pas de Crisis with Albert and Mademoiselle
MAW. Her reception was highly flattering. even to
see of the distiagnisbeil fasourites of the French stage.
Her style is characterised by extreme neatness of execu-
tive, Weeded, in appearauce, with as entire absence of
all effort She richly deserves all the reputation which
she 'Fajen in her native cite, for a more elegant and
finished *dancer we have seldom seen. Her facility- is as-
tonishing. 'rhe pas de Mae was a fine exhibition, and
will, no doubt, add to the many powerful attractions of
the present season. The House was crowded as usual,
and easy of the Royal Family were present.
IUOIROT °MIDIS THCATRO.--A humorous and
seeming farce was prodiseed at this Theatre last night,
called The Cited Tour. It met with considerable
success. The chief part of the Plot consists in an at-
tempt to impose upon an old tradesman of Rochester
(IfikaNceamo) who is about to give his daughter in
marriage to-an ignorant tradesman of Holborn (Li rrost)
substitute for his intended son-in-law. As the parties
are previously unknown to each other, this is effected by
Ad usual routine of misrepresentation and imposition. in
,Olia7me of which .loans plays a conspicuous part in
of his friend (Dunesex), the substituted and
successful suitor. EMOIT'S acting excited much
aserrilarat. He appeared as a Yorks'Aire servant to
Lures!. The scenes between him and Jos vs were
INN laughable. The piece was announced for re-
I petition.
SAIIIIOI WELI.S.—Last n4ht &abort Ballet was pre-
driatred to the Public at this Theatre, under the title of
Oho" Jovial Millers." It possesses a considerable fund
of entertainment at humour, and is caloilated to add
to the attractions which have so much increased under
the present management.
The three best dancers, and indeed the only ones de
serail of particular notice are, Miss SCOTT, Ma le-
ssened' 60111014, and lift. St ALBIN. To the former
lady we decidedly give the preference. There is a na-
tural and unstudied elegance in her movements. com-
bined with an unassinning modesty of iletneanour which
easiest fail to please that portion of the public whose
taste remains sufficiently unvitisted to allow them to
acknowledge that a dancer may bare merit, althourli
her name be not preceded by " &gourd," or Mademoi-
selle. Mademoiselle hi %KIWIS also possesses merit, and
although inferior in point of grace to Miss SCOTT, She
is ;Nampa in some measure superior 'a list in execution.
IH Mr. fie. ALIIIIN we can, in candour, say but little.
lie is a very fair third or fourth rite dancer; hut
his ambition is unfortunately too great for his
ability ; fur it is evidently his object to astonish
the spectators; and he appears to think it unnecessary
for the attainment of that object, that his manner should
Indicate a wish to please. Indeed the unlimited appro-
balon which he appears so liberally to bestow upon him-
self, seems to convince the spectators that it is out of the
power to add to it, and therefore induced them to be
sliest. This gentleman would greatly improve by the
.11` see of a rittle diffidence.
