ISA.BELL& against the constitutional liberties of Spain. We tan detect the infamous treachery displayed against the honest and high-minded, but, unfortunately, the unsuspecting ESPARTERO, by the SOVEREIGN who owes her throne to his exertions, and the colleague who is indebted to him for the power of inflicting so severe a blow to his superior. We can perceive the diabolical ingenuity with which the project was carried into execution —the concentration of troops sufficient to crush the unorganised resistance, which the manifest determination to establish an irresponsible despotism on the ruins of the Constitution was sure to provoke, and the sanguinary resolution to cement the foundations of absolutism with the blood of the best and bravest of the people. But ore do not, and cannot, know what has been the result in the provinces, owing to the break in the telegraphic communication at Saragossa. As we have already stated, we have nothing but ex park statements and one-sided versions of the proceedings, and it is scarcely necessary to say that these are coloured, if not prepared, to suit the exigencies of the reactionary party from whence they emanate.  That there has been a temporary success at Madrid seems but too certain. Those who rose on the spur of the moment were left without leaders round whom they could rally, and the cmnon, the fusillade, and the sabre, soon performed their deadly work on the indignant but unprepared Constitutionalists. But it is not so easy to trample on the liberties of a people firmly resolved to be free. There may 1,3 a brief triumph, but the parties can never be secure.  " For freedom's battle once begun, Bequeathed from bleeding sire to son, Though baled oft, is ever won."  Spain may for the moment be trampled on, bu, she is by no means subdued ; and if the Spaniards be worthy of the constitutional freedom to which they aspire they will eventually obtain it, despite every obstacle which the diabolical cunning and sanguinary atrocities of the Reactionaires may place in their way. We regret to say that there are sinister rumours in circulation respecting the participation of the French Court, and more especially of the French Minister at Madrid, in these very untoward events—rumours which recsive at least a partial corroboration from the movement of French troops to the frontier. It would almost seem as if the precious Peac3 by which the Western Powers sacrificed the advantages they had obtained, at the expense of so much blood and treasure, was patched up for the purpose of enabling the conspiracy against Spanish Liberty to be carried into practical executkn- All those, who were not in, the secret, felt Surprised as well as grieved at the disgraceful termination to a war commenced and carried on 'rider very different auspices. But it now seems as if NAPOLEOX were too strongly actuated by the spirit of Imperta. link), to inflict any injury on the Atrrocitar—that he would rather direct his power against the constitutional liberties of neighbouring States, so as to have no example that could influence his people in their opinions. It is only the EMPEROR himself that can terminate these serious doubts and fears, and prove to the world that he is not actuated by the insidious policy so generally imputed to him. We should greatly regret to find that the personage once so popular in England had forfeited the respect and approbation then freely accorded. We should have hoped that Lours NAPOLEON would have been fax too prudent to engage in affairs which have  been so frequently proved fatal to his predecessors, and led to repeated changes of dynasties in France. It would scarcely be necessary to trace hack beyond his immediate predecessor, whose dethronement and exile were mainly occasioned by the intrigues relating to the Spanish marriages. To these intrigues, and the disgust thereby created both in France and England, NAPOLEON owes his throne, and he should beware lest he may, in turn, become the victim of a similar mistake. LOUIS PHILIPPE himself had ample warning. He must have seen the effect produced by the ill-omened intervention of the elder branch of the BOURBONS, which led to the judicial murder cf the patriot RAPHAEL DE RlEGO—and
