BRITISH PRESS.' With deep and indignant regret we announce the ',execution of the gallant and unfortunate Riego at Madrid on the morning of the7th. This diskinguished patriot was publicly murdered by the tyrant's satellites on that day. The Journal des DObats Aid-el, that an immense crowd was assembled to witness his last hour, and that, vile as that rabble is, 'the dying moments of the departed Chief were unembittered by insult. The Etoile oft7s, he Ives taken to the place of execution in a patinierdrewn, by an ass. What must those exe grabk wretches be who could thus add obloquy toinurder ! who, not satisfied with Riego's death)  sought also to make his closing scene of death ' degrading I. Throughout Europe there will be but one Feeling on this infernal act. Horror and execration will universally attend its mention.— We yet hope to see a terrible retribution attend the remorseless wretch who gave his fiat to the foul deed : may he one day yet occupy Riego's dungeon, and perish on the same scaffold, " with no creature to love him while living, nor his memory when dead 1" We are happy to find that Mina and Rotten have escaped from the scene of murder; they both quitted its shores on the 6th; Mina for Gibraltar, from whence, it is stated, lie comes to this country, and not to France ; Rotten proceeds to Swisserland, of which he is a native. Their deaths would follow certain on Riego's, could the tyrant or his crew of assassins clutch them in their fell gripe. These are the blessings, this the happiness, the French arms have entailed on Spain. Angonleme's hands are full of Riego's blood ; no water will wash it from them. lie might have preserved him, and the Duke delivered him into the hands of his murderers, and saw him fall without an effort for his safety'. The tyrant's career is now commenced; and, like the tiger that tastes of human gore, he will be for the future insatiate of victims ; he ' will run riot in slaughter, until absolute despair rouses all Spain into united resistance again ;—and when it does, the monster Ferdinand, end his whole race, will fall before its fury. If that day should arrive, how poor an atonement will his death and theirs make for the incalculable miseries he is now entailing on Spain ! What must Madame Riego's feelings be in this dreadful hour. It would be an act every way worthy of  this country to offer her all the consolation possible ; and, though the incalculable loss she has sustained never .can be replaced, sympathy and attention might lessen her sorrows. We need not suggest it, we are sure, to a people who never yet have been insensible to suffering and misfortune, either on this or any other shore.  [MORNING lIIMALD.] The British Funds remained tolerably firm during the early part of Saturday. Consols were at 83, and the business in them considerable; but about three o'clock certain persons took advantage of many of the principal monied men being absent (which is generally the case on a Saturday afternoon) to bang the market.— They succeeded so far as to have Consols announced at 8311-4, and at the close of business they were 83; sellers. In the Foreign market Spanish Bonds were the, principal Security noticed. The reported new Loan of M. Gueb. hard has been the subject of conversation—but of conversation only. Much has been said by some of the Evening Papers respecting this Loan, but all that we pretend to know upon the subject, is, that we believe the Committee of the Foreign Stock Exchange have to-day assembled, to consider whether this Loan ought or ought not to be introduced on the market, but that they have not yet come to any decision on the subject: all the movements the Committee of the Foreign Stock Exchange are strictly secret. The highest price of Spanish Bonds of 1821 to-day was 244 ; their lowest price was 22i, they closed at 241 t The new Bonds underwent proportionable flue tuations.  Ellie
