DIRECT FROM SpA1N.-We are indebted to gen.
tleman of this city for Cadiz papers to Deem
Der 18th, inclusive, received by the ship Calumet
Capt. Chase. They contain advices from Ma
drid to Dec. 10th.
The Queen Regent, having previously issued
a decree confiscatng all the property of Don
Carlos, has put forth another, suppressing the
celebration of his birth days
MADRID, Dec BY an express arrived to-
day from the head quarters of his excelency
n.
army Of operations news is received that the
numerous body of insurgents, who had fortified
themselves in Onate, by means OF the artillery
which the rebels had at Vittoria, were totally de
feated on the fifth instant with the loss of all
their canon and multitude OF prisoners. This
agreeable news would have reached the Court
several hours sooner, but for the fact that the
courier extraordinary who brought it, was twice
plundered on his way from Bilboa to Vittoria,
proving, that though the faction which Cypress
ed the BASQUE Provinces has been broken up
and dispersed there are still wretches along the
road who in honor of their Emperor Carlos V
are engaged in watching and plundering pas
sengers. We are awaiting the particulars OF
this glorious action which we shall hasten to
lay before our readers
1t is reported to-day that our troops have en-
tered Morella. Although this intelligence needs
confirmation, such is the channel through which
we hpve received it, that we cannot do less than
give it place in our columns.
MADRID, Dec l0-The news Of the taking OF
Morea is confirmed. According to the rumors
of the day, the castle was taken by assault, at
ter an obstinate resistance, in which we lost ma
nv officers and men, The insurgents, it is add
ed, were nearly all put to the sword
STILL LATER-By the Napoleon we have adj
vices from Lisbon, to December 18th. As pre-
dicted by our correspondent, the affair OF Count
Taipa is spread out at length in these papers
but the letter above published, contains perhaps
as much as would be interesting to our readers
except the following:
Remonstrance Of the Peers.-Sire,-The I'M
designed have the honor to represent to your
Imperial and Royal Majesty, that this morning
an order of Imprisonment was served upon the
Count of aipa, Peer of the Realm, signed by
one of the Police Magistrates Of this city, and
actually attempted to be carried into effect; and
as this proceeding appears to them to be an open
infraction of the 26th article Of the Constitutions
al Charter, which only allows the arrest OF a
Peer in the case of fagrante deIicto pcene CAPT
tails, "-they think themselves necessarily call
ed upon for the maintenance Of their rights as
Peers, to beg Of your Imperial Royal Majesty
to be pleased to declare if the articles of the
Constitutional Charter which guarantee to them
their rights are suspended by the decree Of the
10th July, 1882, in order that they may regulate
themselves accordingly.
God preserve your Imperial and Royal Ma
