Constantine republican. [volume] (Constantine, Mich.) 1836-1838, 1836-10-26

The accounts from Madrid state that no
serious disturbance has occurred there since
the 18th ult. but they describe the inhabi-
tants of that city as being in state of great
alarm.
Letters and papers from Madrid to the
22d ult. have been received. By royal
decree, dated the 21st, the Queen Regent
has restored to their respective appoint
ments the seventeen cx-deputies and other
persons removed by Isturia, in consequence
of their adherence to the Mendixabel Ad-
ministration. A second royal decree an
nounces the re-appointment of Gen. Rodil
to be communicating of the army of
the north; General San Miguel, who first
proclaimed the constitution of 1912 at Sara
gossa, to the chief command of the army
of the centre, and to remain captain. general
of Arragon; the Marquis Of Monsalud,
captain general OF Estremadura Don An
tonia Qui-Marchla, military governor of
Bodajos. Thus the appointment of General
Saarsield to the chief command Of the
army of operations is cancelled almost as
soon as it is signed. Some Disturbances
took place at Madrid on the night tot the 18th,
in consequence Of a quarrel between the
National Guards, the citizens, and portion
of Quesada's troops, but happily it was
quelled without the effusion of much blood.
The constitution of 1912 has been pro-
claimed throughout the whole of the King
dom of Arragon. On the 10th it was
solemnly proclaimed and sworn to in Bar
celona, by command Of General Nina
Calatrava had appointed the Dist for CON-
pleting his Ministry. 1t is supposed that
Mendizabel would decline accepting office
before the meeting of the Cortes, when he
is to defend himself against the charges pre-
ferred against him by Isturiz. Of lsturiz
and his colleagues nothing positive is known,
but that they keep themselves concealed.
Since their arrival in Madrid, the Queen
Regent has appeared well reconciled with
the new state of things. The Council Of
Ministers has decided that the Cortes shall
be convoked for October "a, and that the
proclamation of the constitution of 1912
having been effectually annulled the late
elections of new deputies are to be chosen,
according to the system of the constitution
of 1912, but the number for the Peninsula
and the adjoining islands is to be increased
to 26S.
A letter from Bayonne, dated the Odd ult.
states that an engagement took place at
Ladosa OH the 18th, between the Constitu-
tionalists under lrribarra, and the Carlists
under General Ituralda. 1t lasted for some
hours, and terminated in the total rout of the
Carlsts, who suffered considerably in killed
and wounded, and lost 900 prisoners, of
whom 81 were officers.
The constitution has been proclaimed at
Pampelona, Blboa, and several other places,
with great rejoicings.
Another letter of the same date, evident
ly written by partisan of Don Carlos, has
the following -" Gen. Gomez has divided
his army inio three corps; the first, under
the command of the Marquis de Bobeda,
and composed of 5000 men, is in the &C.
cupation of Mondonedo, in Galicia, and the
surrounding country; the second, under
Brigadier Arroyo, which is 6.400 strong, is
in the Asturias and the third, the effective
force Of which is 1000 infantry and 600
cavalry, commanded by General Gomez in
person, threatens the town of Leon and its
environs. All the three divisions are rails
ing recruits in the country. 1t Is announced
that the Carlist Brigadier Don Castor An
dechaga has completely defeated the Chris
tho Chief, Don +. Iriarte, in the Incartac.
tones, and forced him to retire in disorder TO
Santander."
