ISTITRIZ.  M. Isturiz, the late Prime Minister of Spain, has arrived safely in London, and glad, no doubt, to exchange the quiet and hospitable home of his friend M. Zulueta, for the noisy and dangerous quarter of the Puerta del Sol. We are told that he escaped from Madrid in the disguise of an English messenger, havine. taken =advantage of a commercial courier being despatched' to Lisbon to accompany him, as couriers are in the habit of doing, with a view to society or security. Though he contrived to get safely through his political enemies, he had to pay forfeit to plunderers of another description, equally notorious in Spain, though not. quite so blood-thirsty as the murderers of Quesad, In fact he was robbed within a few miles of the Portuguese frontier, near Badajoz, and lost all his luggage and money. He contrived to raise a supply at Elves, and then passed on to Lisbon, where he remained until the departure of the steamer, his perfect knowledge of the English and French language enabling him to avoid the observation which would be be given to a Spaniard at that particular tmoment. His ,colleague, M. Galia,2,o, fortunate, and he still remain been oblige,,,' b hourly expectin: '.. at Madrid in concealment, has not been so for, vered. This ip the fourth time that M. Isturiz has that his retreat will be discoput to leave Madrid in consequence of political 7.ag.ital.;•-'in- He emigrated after the Cortes of 1812 were he played a ' day.

The Mendizabal Ministry having ewg oustedoti a tTioat.. reno, Isturiz was enabled to appear, and a lon was carried on between him and his friend, h anxious to unite him in the Cabinet. Isturiz, it iso s wass selected for himself, instead of honour in Madrid prolfit, in the Island of Cuba, land wanted Mendizabal to name him Intendiente of that colony, qne of the most lucrative places in the gift of the Crown ; but his wishes could not be complied with, and an ill feeling sprang up between the two friends, which ended in an angrdiscussion in the Chamber of Procuradores and a 1' less duel near the canal. Mendizabal ,had v. proposed to make M. Isturiz Minister of FA  His Majesty's ship Portland, at the close of July, went up the Gulf of F,gina, and when off Callimichi several officers, of whom the purser was one, obtained leave to visit Corinth ; afkcr viewing Hicropolis, the whole party came own together, but when in the suburbs of the city of Corinth, the purser told them that he would overtake them at the inn directly. After waiting for him until late the next day, the party directed their steps to the frigate, and reported his absence, when Captain Price landed with a considerable part of the crew, and searched in all directions to ascertain, if possible, the certainty of his fate. A dispatch had been sent in the mean time to Admiral Canaris, who immediately went up in a b...ig and aided the crew of the frigate with his men in findfog some clue to the purser's mysterious disappearance. The search, however, of eight days' continuation, proved fruitless. h was supposed that a gold chain which the unfortunate gen..4llPr tleman sported attracted the cupidity of some of the Mainotes, ergVious/y and that, after murdering him for the sake of it, they buried ~reign Affairs, the body.
