LATEST FROM SPAIN.

Williams, arrived here on Saturday evening
from Gibraltar, which place she left on The
18Th Sept. We have seen several letters da-
ted on the 18th, which all agree in stating
| that the French had entered Malaga without
much resistance, the place being incapable oil
defence. The brave General Riego with has
forces had retreatrd TO the Interior all was
quiet at Malaga, and business began 10 assume
some regularity.
The French were still before CadZ and the
account of their having taken Trocadero, re-
ceived by the way of England, is confirmed d.
No mention is made Of any further fighting
or negotiation having taken place

In addition Ia the above intelligence, we
have cOnveTsed with gentleman who has re-

ieinbrr, which give gloomy picture of po-
liical affairs al that place, and entertain fear.
that Cadiz will not be able to hold ont. They
do not write much, fearful their letters may
fall INTO the hands of the French, in which
case they would have TO suffer for them.
! The Daily Advertiser says letters have beer
received in town from CadiZ, dated the Sd Of
September, which give gloomy picture OF
political affairs al that place, and express fears
hat Cadiz will not BE- able To hold out. Our
correspondent writes as follows:-' The af-
| lars OF Spain, we are given to expect, by let
tiers from CadiZ In 9Th instant are about to
be- compromised. probably through the mcdi-
alton OF Great Britain"
The frigtlr Tribune arrived at Gibraltar on
the ST. from Malaga, and brought information
that =" General Count de Loverdo, con 1mandina
French division; entered and took possession
oil the town of Malaga on the morning of III,
preceding day (ihe 4ih) without the least resis.
taHce, and were juyfuIy received by the in
habltants. Gen. Riego fed the preceding
| night about l-2 past ii o'clock, at which time
the h9tilla sailed from the harbor with some
soldiers ofdiferent corps. Late on the even
ing ot the Sd, some cavalry and infantry re-
tired by the road to VeIcz Malaga ; and on the
morning ofthe 9TH, the French cavalry pursued
the rear guard, aud took the whole of the rtg.-
ment del Key, prisoners. tits known that Rirgo
embarked large sum of money, and church
plate melted down. re this be true, it is
likely that Riego's robbery of the churches
and OF American merchants, was not done fOr
Tue most patriotic and dlsIntPTested purposes
unless he has sent it TO some other point for
the public use. There were various reports as
to the direction taken by Ripgo on his retreat.
One report is" that Riego not wishing to risk a
battle, their force being 10000 strong, and the
position untenable, retired with his for ces To- Gre
nada,with an intent TO pass down towards CadZ
collecting, on his way, the troops recently under
the command of Baasteros thus corr, Ing into
| effect his original project" Now whose force
was 10000 strong lift be the French, The
force is estimated too high and if Ricgu had
any thing like that force, he should have met
the invader in the field Another story is
that Riego has gone the other way, 10 Cartha-
gena, ION the Mediterranean in the province o
Alurcia) And a third story is, that he has &C. 4
into the interior. The French left Algesira.
