Gazctts Extraordinary, March 25. " L>y a dispatch received last evening from Andalusia- the Shift has had the satisfaction of learning that the oath to the Constitution was taken on the 201 h j by 'he garrison of Cadiz, and on the 21st bv the second division of the army. The first division of the army was also to take itou the'iist. "'On the 20th the General in chief of the army, Don M. Frryre, decided that Mairhal du Camp Don Francis Ferras, and General Don Manuel Jaurgnry, should proceed to Cadh fo supercede Don Joseph [pnatio Canvpana and Gene¬ ral Alonzo Valde/.-" The Gazette Extraordinary of the 27th contains a dispatch from General Freyre, in which It* states that Generals Campana and Valdez had arrived at the head quarters, Puerto Santa Maria. The General also apprises two eficm of the national army to go to Madrid for the purpose of presenting themselves to the Klftgj and of making several commu¬ nications to him ou the part of Colonel Quiroga. A dispatch from General O'Donoju states, the Constitution was proclaimed at Cadiz on the 21st, amidvt the unanim¬ ous rejoicings of the people.—The Gene¬ ral **ays, that the people of Cadiz arege- ner" is, and have forgotten every tiling, and concludes by apprising tlie Ministers that he purposes on the 25th to proceed to Puerto Sauta Maria and thence to The Cortes are convoked for the 9tli of July; they will consifit of 1-19 Mem¬ bers for the Peninsula, without counting those for the present by 30 Deputies, to be chosen among the Americans who are in Spain. The Kins, in conformity w ilh the Con- stituiiou, has taken the title of King of Spains. The stamps of ihe kingdom will bear this legend — Werdinandus Septimus Dei Gratia et Const it ut tone Monarchies Hi.wunturum Ai.t. The following is an account of the e- Tents which occurred at Barcelona :— •u ... .The people rushed in crowds to the Inquisition. The Inquisitors re¬ fused to opeu the sates, but the people burst them. Indignation seized every heart at sight of the unhappy meagre li¬ vid victims, who being so long immured in darkuess, could now scarcely endure the light. Every thing was in less than two hours completely overturned. AiThe neighbouring streets were en¬ cumbered with books, papers and manu¬ scripts, found in this I or ihle tribu¬ nal. Among the persons set at li¬ berty weie found Geneial Castellar, and also a player named Pindro, who was in the dungeons of the Inquisition far two years. The leaders of ihisn ble enter¬ prise against despotism are Vainaro, a distinguished Advocate, and Plandolet, both inhabitants of Barcelona, and en¬ joying the highe-t popularity. ct It is proposed at Barcelona fo raze thf» foundations of the cavern of the In¬ quisition and to firm thereon a public square, eoosecrafed to the valiantQuiro- ga? the liberator of Spain/' » • * * * Vxr.is Starch 2J. A dailv paper announces as a report, but as a report coming from a Source worthy to be believed, th:it an explosion, like to that of Spain, seems to threaten the kingdom of Italy. The movement began at Bologna and the example was soon followed at Milan. A unanimous determination was manifested for the in¬ dependence of Efre Country- The revo¬ lutionists denand for their kieg the Arch-Duke Royaler* with a constitution¬ al Government. March 30-—They say that a courier has brought to the Austrian embassy, dispatches w hit h confirm the report, vhich we have adeady given, concern¬ ing the kingdom of Italy. [We hardly know what to make of that part of tlie following letter which alludes to Spain. There i* nothing to corroborate it, in any uf the papers.] A letter from Bordeaux ol the the 4th ult. states, that B" troops are on their march to Biyoune; probably a storm is gathering, which may burst ou Spain. The Holy Alliance will perhaps assJst Ferdinand. If they do, farewell to tlie tranquility of Furope fer a long season." A postscript to t!ie above says, fc; Ita¬ ly is in a state nearly like that of Spain, previous to the establishment of the Cor¬ tes. " " The two late laws passed for the re¬ striction of the press, and against per¬ sonal liberty, are extremely unpopular." There ie a report in circulation that a difpofuion to revolt has been manifclled among the troops in Pruffia. Notwith¬ standing the extreme watchfulnels of die government, the Spauifh news is known to every one. Pruffi. has not forgotten thai a constitution was promifed he'", as a reward for her efforts in favor of national independence. This con titntion, an¬ nounced i* danger, refufed after victory, 13 the object of all wiflies.

All our letters from Spain, announce that Madrid is not tranquil ; that disas¬ trous events are expected, aud that seve¬ ral provinces will not accept the Consti¬ tution of the Cortes. A Bordeaux correspondent writes as follows, under date of the 30th ult :— iw The Fu^lish Ambassador at the Court of Madrid, arrived here yesterday even¬ ing. It is rumored that Madrid is in a state of the greatest fermentation, as also several provinces of Spntir" It is asserted that a portion of the ar¬ my which remains faithful to the Kiog9JS marching upon Madrid, and that Cadiz is in the power of the Eb$ish. Congress. As congrefs are about to adjourn, they have gone to work in earneft—as they ought to h?ve done five months ago. By t^e proceedings of both Jloufes on Thurs¬ day and Friday, we find that much buli- nefswas tranfafted. We have not room for particulars ; but the following para¬ graphs from the Intelligencer, mention the mod important bnfinefs. The fubjeft of the redu&ion of the Army, and particularly the reduction of the Staff of the \ retry, yesterday occupied the attention of the lv*ufe of Reprefenta- tives. It ta postponed till the n< xt fcllion, and a call has been made on the fecretary of war for a plan for the reduction ot the army to fix thoofand men, fhoulJ it then be deemed expedient to reduce it. The motives for the latter proceeding as avowed, were not hostile to the Arm/. utilcfa its reduction, during peace, fliould be the alternative to a Epstein of direct taxation. With regard to the navy, the proportion for reduction fprung from no hostility.10 it, was entirely confined to enquiry,and wasconfequenton thepropoted enquiry refpe&ing the reduction of the Army. The joint rcfolve for fufpending the Qp'eration of the act to amend the Revolt! tionary Law, has been rejected in the Senate. That amendatory a&of courfe l*~->,s \rr,rr,^-\'t .• p\ y nn 'H- P^fiTl-tiierfi I Vl»9 information ought to be generally difluied, as well as copies of the amendatory act, and of the forms preferibed by the War Department for carrying it into effect- It particularly behoves the friends of the uninformed, indigent? and real'y meri¬ torious penfior.er, to look to this rnz.tt.r, and to look to it promptly. The bill fixing the fecend Monday in November forthe next meeting of Congrefs, has paffed both houfes and requires only the affer.t of the Prefidentto become a law. The fame may be fatd of the bill to 3mcnd the Navigation Act. NT. Com. Jld. QlTfiOEC, May 15.
