There is nothing from Madrid later than the
9th.
General Espattcro, who arrived at Lisbon on
the 18th hy the Malabar, has not been able TO OBJ
tain permission to disembark. He has, therefore,
repaired on board the Prometheus, on his way 10
London, and touched at Bayonne for the purpose
OF taking with him the Duchess, if she was still
there but she had already quilted that city for
Paris. The Regent did not disembark from the
Prometheus, but set sail for England on the lG.h.
Parliament, after long protraced session, was
to be prorogued on Thursday, the 9th, by the
Queen in person. The latest proceedings of the
Lords and Commons are quite inlcrestinu and
the close OF the session has been rendered more
Than usually animated by debate and several di-
visions, on bill introduced by Government, for
securing the services of the out-pensioncrs i'm aid
oil the civil power, when necessary. The bill has
met with great opposition, and the attempt to
coerco The people instead Of giving them cheap
food ana plenty Unemployment, has been strongly
censured.

Dish ReptGi-A great--periaps the greatest
demonstration which has vet been made in favor
of repeal, took place at Tara llal--a memorable
spot In the carly history of Ireland and It's kings,
and celebrated even in late years by the resistance
which was made there to the kings forces by the
"Croppies" in the rebelon of l795-on Tuesday
last. All the accounts in representing

The reporters of the various papers, Wing, Tory
and Radical alike, agree with O'Connell's de-
scription of this being the GROWING gathering of
repeal agitation. The day selected being strict
holiday in the Roman Catholic Church-the fes-
tlval Of the assumption-all the ceremonies of re-
ligion were brought to bear on the enthusiasm
OF the meeting. Mass celebrated three or
four times before the commencement Of the pro-

were mouldering beneath, and who fell, according
