[From the HtoirofWednesdav.l We have received, by ari extraordinary courier, the Jfadrid Ga- ete of fthe 20th, whence we give the following offncal details:- The Infant Don Niguel reccived frem his august Father an or- der to go on board the Windsor .astle, hich heinstantlyobeyed. The King was already tF.ere. The first interview presented a most oFecting and imposing spectacle. Th firmness and majoty of a father and of an offendea Sovereign were urited in his countenance Itlithe sentiments of nature, whilst the young Prince displayed the Moat filial submission. His Royal Highnesz explained the means of artifice and seduc- tion whic had been used to induce him to act as he had done. The King, after having commented upon the fault which he had cam- Z'ttted, presented to him, in signal of pardon, his august hand, which the Infant kissed respectfuly. He retired into another cabin of he zip The Diplomatic Body was present at this solemn scene: they did not return to lnd till the evening. T he Kingis still on board the Windsor Castk this day (the llth). e anpears ~thathis M5ajesty vwill not lard till to-mostow afternoon, the day befere the annsversarv of his birtb. His orders are every wohere executed with the ob'dience that is due to them. Thiugs rill resame their accustomed course, and energetic measures will prevent the return of the excesses of which we have been just wit. nesses. Illuminations and rejoicings of al kinds express the general joy. The l?arquis de Palmella addressed, on the 10th, the following Official letter to tbe Duke of Villahermosa, Ambassador of his Ca. tholic AIajesty:- " The undersigned Mlinister and Secretary of State for Fordeg ATfairs has the honour of transmitting to his Excellency the Duke of Villahermors, Ambassador of his Catholic Mlajesty, a copy 01 tho Proclamation and the Supplement of a Gazette, which have ap. reared with other documents on the subject of the events which n,ave taken place for the re-establishment of tranquillity and publc order, which had been so unhappily disturbed.

" It cannot be doubte lthat the unanimous resolution taken by thi worthy representatives of the Sovereigns, atlies and friends of hi- ,9ajestv, on the 30th ult., and the common declaration which the5 4-iate, have powerfully concurred to prevent the fatal consequencet of this painful crisis. The memory of this act shall never be lost It is one of the most extraordinarv which the history of diplonmac presents, but it is only a testimony of the friendship and commu. nity of feeling which unite the nations of Europe in mautual bar. mony, guaranteeing to the people the advantages of which revolu. tions could not fail to deprive them. Neither will the magnanimonu resolution be ever forgotten which was taken by his lMlajesty o transorting himself on board the ship Windsor Castle, anchore3 it the Tagus, and belonging to one of his most andent, powerful, ane affectionate allaes; there it was that all the diplomatic body assem. boled around his royal person: thence, as from a point inaccessiblet all diseensions, wil emanate the good order and tranquillity whiel tihe faithful subjects of his Majesty demand,at the same time that hi bas received there through the month of the representatives of hi august alLies the testimony of the satisfaction they feel at his noblh de terrmination .

A Supplement ot the Lisbon Gazette of the 11th contains the fol lowing anote:- " Although the fidelitv of the Portuguese army to its augus Sovereign is universaly known, we feel pleasure in publishing, or this occasion, the following protestations which the military corp1 of tbis capital have addressed to the Kingour Lord.

" On board the Windsor Castle, Mav 10,1824." Another order of the samne day is thus conceived:- " The good of his Uajesty's service, and the confidence whicl Officers composing the army ought to inspire, require the immnediatc dismissal of all those who, by their affiliations to certain Gseet clubi and rodeaiese, end their attachment to principles contrary to th( systemn which happily governs us, are an object of scandal to thi public, and were in part cause of the unhappy events which have jus passed. " In consequence, the King, our Lord, ordains that his Mtinister o lVar shall immediately propose seven General Officers,to inquire ant search out those officers who are affiliated to secret societies, anc whom other circumstances may render unworthy of confidence." To-day_(the Ilth) the Mlarquis of Palmella has notified the fol. lowing to Don Joachim Pedro Lopez:- "The King orders me to reprimand you very severely on thesub. ject of the fosmal disohedience of vwhich you havebeen guilty in ths execution of the orders whicb You received from me in writinz, rela. tive to editing of the Lisbon Cazettc, bv inserting in the Gazette o0 theist inst not only your own observations, but even official docu ments.without waiting for their being transmitted from the Ministr3 of Foreign Aiffirs, in contempt of your formal instructions.
