Letters from Madrid, dated July IS, an
nounce that iii Spain every thing is so her.
metricay sealed against the introduction
OF foreign pIpers and correspondence, that
the people do not even know what is pass
ing on their osgn frontiers, mush less in the
other states of Europe. Nothing is known
but what is found III the columns OF the
Madrid Gazette. and this paper is exclu
sively traced out by the Deepen ants on the
foreign department. The police and the
inquisition, united. have filed the Country
with spies, no one dares to speak of polit-
ical events. and much less write respecting
them, as the p st-office has already serv
ed as a most fatal trap to many.

plotting bids fair to produce equally as
great effects as the Berlin and Milan de-
rrees or the Confederation of the Rhine, 4
bout which our ministers made SO much
noise.

sovere;gns az Cariabad, shall be concluded
before the former assembly meets.
1t is again stst- d, that the Emperor A
lexandcr had communicated to the Otto
man Porte his desire that the Mediterra-
mean and the Adriatc should be freed from
the outrsges of tie Algerines and other
pirates who recognize the supremacy Of
Turkey, and had at the same time ann I'M
Ced TO tn DiVan, that ke considered the
cause of the Christians, who had recently
experienced Injuries from the barbarians,
as the common Cause of humanity, & would
therefore join his forces in those of other
powers united for the destruction of the ri
rates.
The story Of the assassination of the Dey

The idea that Ministers feel it to be their
duty to assemble Parliament, is become
general. A rrquisition is in course of sig
natures, for calling Common Hall, with |

clfeclual means of relieving the dstresses
Of the people at this time.
