The Spanish Government, at the instance of Mr VILLIERS, the British Ambassador at Madrid, has suspended the Royal Order of the 13th July, 1830, which imposed exceptional duties upon vessels proceeding from Gibraltar to Spanish ports ; and likewise suspended in favour of English and French steamers the Royal Order of the 9th of April, 1837, which prohibited the importation of foreign coals into any port of the Peninsula. Until the Cortes shall otherwise determine, British and French Steam Companies arc allowed to have depots of coals for the use of their vessels at Barcelona, Alicant, Cadiz, and Corunna. These concessions are of some importance to us-; but in truth they are of an hundred times more value to Spain than they can ever be to England or France. The vessels for whose consumption coals are required at the above ports are principally engaged in guarding- the Spanish coast, and in that capacity have already rendered most valuable services to the ConstitUtional cause. It is, therefore-, unworthy of the Spanish Government to parade the temporary suspension of two ridiculous, suicidal decrees, as a liquidation of any part of the debt of gratitude which Spain owes to England. But, unfortunately for both countries, it is next to impossible to make Spain and Portugal comprehend any part of their true commercial interests. It appears never to have entered the heads of their Ministers and representatives that, while neither cif them could possibly lose, they would of necessity gain by an extensive intercourse with a nation wealthier and more enlightened than themselves.  The Gazette of last night contains an Order in Council, exonerating the servants in ordinary, with fee, of her Majesty, from public offices, from serving on juries or inquests, watch or ward, arid from any mulct or fine for not submitting thereto ; also an Order in Council approving the recommendation of the Ecclesiastical Commissioners that the sum of 850/. per annum be paid to the Bishop of Lichfield from tha funds in their possession, in order to raise the annual income of the Bishop to the sum of 4,500/. per annum, subject to the postponement of payment of the said 8501. from deficiency of funds ; also an Order in Council approving. the recommendations of the Ecclesiastical Commissioners with respect to the appropriation of the Castle of Durham, and certain precincts thereof, to the University of Durham, saving certain rights and privileges now appertaining to the Bishop of Durham, and to the officers of the see. LusEcK, A ec. 2.—Our Senate has issued an order in consequence of the accession of the city to the treaty between Great pritain and France for the 411Q1i t ion Of tho slave.trada.
