It is said that King Louis Philippe is sorely disappointed at the resnlt ; and Queen Christina , who sees in it sot only the death of all her hopes of returning to Spain , but the sadden stoppage of the million of pounds sterling whioh Olozaga had promised to her as the arrears of her salary as Regent , must be not a little mortified . It is not likely that she will find another Minister so complaisant as to purchase her favour and support at the expense of a million . The Times Correspondent gives the following "j > lain . unvarnished tale" of thn nhnva « rfcrjum ? i .
nary intrigues , making the whole matter & 8 plain as a pikestaff : — Madbid , Dec . 3 ,- —Affairs of State are taking such an extraordinary turn' here that even we natives , who are case-hardesed in intrigue , are qaite at a loss to predict what will be the end of all this ; and you in England must be completely mystified . The facts , however , will speak for themselves , and very serions disclosures they have made already ; these , however , neither senators , deputies , nor the press have yet dared to translate in every-day language , nor indeed would it be very safe to do bo in Madrid ; so 1 shall beg your leave to do it via London .
Imprimis , Donna Isabel Segunda is the nominal Queen of Spain , but La MarqueBa de Santa Cruz , Chief Lady of the Bedchamber , is the real acting irresponsible one , subject only % o the inspirations of Narvael , who pays a formal visit to the Palace every day , ostensibly to take orders ftom ( he Queen for ihe customary dispositions in the garrison , according to Spanish etiquette , but really to receive his report from the said Camarera Mayor , and give her instructions for the ensuing day . This , and much more , was perfectly well known to Sen or Olezaga previous to his taking office a few days ago ; he knew lhat the entire Royal Camarilla was hostile to him , and had vowed his destruction ; « nd he knew , tod , that in forming a Ministry he had to exjxct , not only the enmity of the Palace , the opposition of the Afrancesado leaders of the army , and
the jealous , thongh covert v counteraction of the Moderado senators and deputies , but the eager , dar ing , wilful proceedings of his Progresista rivals , who insisted on re-organizing the National Guard in Madrid tout a coup , and inviting a conflict with the military . All these he endeavoured to meet on the exigency of the moment . He suspended the act reuniting the civic fores . He disarmed the enmity of the Progresistas by his unexpected decree , whioh restored their rights and honours , and recognized the Jfgitimaoy of the Government of Espartero ; and provided against the hostile votes of the insulted Moderadoes in Senate , and in Congress , by drawing up a decree for thoir dissolution the instant that a measure involving censure should be introduced against him in either Chamber with any probability of success .
However , with all cleverness , he could not take measures sufficiently rapid to counteract the hostile movement of the Royal Camarilla . Although he had on the first day of his Ministry prepared bis decree , dated in blank , for the dissolution of the Cortes , at his pleasure , and presented it to ihe Queen in his first private audience on the 28 ; h inst ., yet the Captain-General and the Camarera Mayor had forestalled him . They had counselled the Quean " not to sign ; " and when the Prime Minister laid his decree for signature before her , he found her primed with objections ; and then , instead of retiring and laying the resnlt before the Cortes , as a prudent man would have done , he explained and argued the point with the little girl , and still more imprudently bolted out
the Camarilla at both sides of the cabinet , as Mendizabal had frequently to do in his interviews with her mother . This , it appeara , ia the real state of the case , and constitutes the gravamen of offence committed by Olozaga . It was an insult to the listening ladies of the : Bedchamber , which they have endeavoured to revenge by stating \\ as offence to the Qaeen , and a violence committed against her dignity ; and I must say that Olozaga deserves all the annoyance he is enduring for his folly in attemping to hold the Qaeen "by the cars , " whue he knew that her mind was taken captive by his enemies . They also have played their parts very badly in the affair . They allowed twenty hours to pass , without making the Queen move in
the matter ; whereas , if the child had been insoked , as it is alledged , nothing would hare been more natural than for her to have complained of it on the instant that Senor Oloz&go had released her . The truth appears to be , that General Narvaez did not arrive at the Palace till the afternoon of next d&y as usual , and the Marquesa would not venture on the explosion of such & train withont his directions , laving delayed so long , they executed the accusation in » harry , and followed it up with sad breaches of etiquette . They neither sent for Senor Olozaga , nor the three Ministers who had token office with him , bat , on the contrary , called in their personal enemies to li&ten to the accusations put into the month of the Queen , and to record judgment of hifeh treason pissed on them bv tbs Camarilla .
The rest of the letter is similar to the statements given above , with the exception of the following additional particulars : — Senor Olozaga has been these two days endeavouring to obtain a patient hearing from the Congress respecting his " attack on the Queen . " His friends say that he has important revelations to make respecting the the influence of Narvaez in the palace , ihe intrigues now on foot in the Camarilla for the marriage of the Qaeen with the son of Don Francisco , and al ? o respecting a pension of 1 , 0001 . a month enjoyed from Paris , for the last three years , by an influential lady in the Palace . To-day it was . decided that he must resign his seat in virtue of his previous acceptance of office , but that he should be heard in explanation . He declares his innocence in the most solemn manner , but Baid that
he would offer no commentary on the document which had been submitted to them from the Palace unless called on by the Chamber to do so , when he would be ready to afford every satisfaction ; but the Chamber adjourned before these proceedings could be entered into . His friends expect , now that he has been deprived of the protection of the Chamber by the loss of his position as Deputy , that he will be arrested and placed in close confinement on the charge of high treason , to check , if possible , any farther disagreeable disclosures ; but this recent persecution of a whole Cabinet by the Camarilla has raised him up friends amongst both Progresistas , Moderados , and Sxaltados when he least expected it . £ ven Istnria and Salamanca declare that they will not join in euch an attempt *• to ruin a Prime Minister by an irrespon sible Camarilla , " justly foreseeing perhaps that it may be their own fate next , wtek .
Letters from Madrid of the 3 d state that considerable excitement prevailed at that date in the Spanish capital . The pnblio rejoicingB on the occasion of the Queen ' s majority had filled the streets with an immense concourse of people . The crowd was so great on the square , where fountains flowing with milk and wine had been erected , that the soldiers on duty occasionally were obliged to deal severe blows to the people . In the evening , a large assemblage collected before the town-house , uttering vivas in favour of " the Constitution , " ** Espartero , " and "ihe National Guard / ' A detachment of Eoldiers stationed at the Puerta del Sol was immediately marched to the square , and dispersed the rioters . At the sitting of the Cortes on the 3 rd , Olozaga entered upon his defence : —
M . OiciAfiAsaid he did not rise for the purpose of offering any opposition to a motion for an address to her Majesty , bnt he neither could nor ought to be silent when what he had to say might throw a light on the quesiiotu M . Olosaga then entered into a detail of all the circumstances which preceded his appointment aa the Queen's tutpr , and having arrived at chat point , declared that had never oeased during the whoift of the time he had held that post to impress upon the mind of the Queen that , in order to govern upon constitutional principles , sovereigns should never lend an ear on political matters to any other persons than the responsible advisers of the Crown . This doctrine bad , he said , created for him amoDgst the persons at the palace an antipathy
which had augmented daily , and when he had been called to take upon himself the direction of publio affairs , the antipathy increased to pesitire hostility , and it was the resistance , oceult or open , that he met with from the persons in attendance on the Queen that prevented his composing a homogenous cabinet . To such a height , indeed , had things reached , that he had been under the necessity of declaring that he would drive from the palace all who should interfere with political affairs , and most assuredly he would have carried his menaces into execution . The conviction that he would do so had brought upon him hatred and resentment . On the very day after his nomination to the office of President ot the Council , he was astonished at being
told by the Queen that he must immediately form his cabinet , for if he did not another person would compose a ministry . The person in question was not named by the Queen . It was , however , General Narvaca , who would not even wait for the formation of the cabinet to manifest his oppositiou , so great was the prejudice of the palace against any cabinet that he Ol Olozaga ) might organua . In this state of thingB all personal considerationa counselled retirement into private life } bat he saw that the Moderadoa were about to rush into a most furious opposition , asd he made a uterinee of personal ease and
security to the interests of Ms country . He preferred . the welfare of the country to his personal tnuqiuHirj . It would be easy , added M . Olo * ga , to enumerate a thousand instances of the ill-will against irhich I have had to struggle : one shall Buffiee . On tne day when there was some disturbance in Madrid , I and my colleagues proceeded to the royal residence of the Pardo . Her Majesty had done us the honour to invite us to dine with her . The Qneen having oountcrmanded her visit to the Psrdo , infonscd us that she relied on receiving us at her tab- ? 81 the Palac We ww * sact at the atpoiuted hour , Wbat was oui surpti&e &t learning

from the persons whose duties placed them near to the person of Her Majesty , that ier orders had not been understood . Her Majesty herself , evidently deceived by the persons who Burrounded her , told as herself that the dinner would not take place . By chance , however , it was discovered that there was an error in the counter order of the dinner , and it was forthwith served . It was exquisite , and was certainly not got up hastily , in consequence of our arrival . These are petty details , but they show the spirit thai even in the most minute particulars existed towards the Cabinet in the Queen ' s household , I now come to more important matter . I will state to you freely and without reserve , that I regarded the appointment of the president who now fills the
obair in this Chamber as a fact of a most significant character . It was impossible for a cabinet composed of men belonging to the Progresista party to go on with a Chamber whose hostility was shown in the appointment of the president . Nobody , I think , under these circumstances , will venture to deny the right of the ministry to apply to the Queen for a deoree for the immediate dissolution of the Cortes , it being certain that the cabinet could do longer act in accord with the Chamber ; It was on this account he had agreed with his colleagues as to the necessity of dissolving the Chamber , and for that purpose it was necessary to be prepared beforehand , which was also agreed toby his colleagues : because if he waited till the crisis
arrived , with the secret influences which surrounded the Qaeen , he might be defeated . He then came to the way in which that decree had been received , and he said he would make so comment on the account read by the minister on the subject . His respect for the constitutional throne , and his value for the prestige which it was more than ever necessary to throw around royalty , forbade him to do so . However , he could not altogether forbear from alluding to the charge brought against him , and he solemnly protested , on the word of a man who had no patrimony but his character , and who valued his honoar more than his life , that he was innocent of the charge , and he placed himself entirely in their hands . ( M . Otazaga was at this time greatly
overpowered by his feelings , and was quite unable to proceed for several minutes , during which time he was loudiy applauded from the galleries ) . He then proceeded to Btate that on the night of the 28 t . h he had a great deal of business to transact at the palace , and many documents requiring the Queen's signature which had to be read before signing them Under such circumstances a little impatience might be manifested , and , supposing a minister in his situation had submitted any measure which did not at once meet the royal approbation , it was his duty in his situation to employ such means of persuasion as he might possess , to overcome that repugnance . His
voice here betrayed the deepest emotion . He was compelled to : stop several times , his utterance was choked by his sobs . He took Heaven to witness his innocence , protesting his unfailing repeat for royalty , and repelling with indignant fervour the calumnies which has been heaped upon him by his enemies , and a malignant Camarilla , whose intrigues were fatal to interests of the country . While M . Olozaga was protesting with great energy against the calumny raised against . him , the President adjourned the sitting , declaring that the time allowed by the standing rules of the Chamber had elapsed .
At tho sitting on the 4 th M . Olozaga resumed and concluded the vindication of his conduct . He stated that in the evening of the 28 th he repaired from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to the Palace , bringing a number of decrees , which he submitted to the approbation of the Queen , and which her Majesty actually approved and signed . The Queen had treated him with all the marks of kindness that a candid and grateful heart could express and when he teok leaio of her , she followed him , and , in presence of bystanders , saluted him most graciously . M . Olozaga then returned to the Ministry . Had he been guilty of tho attempt imputed to him , his guilt wouid have been betrayed by his emotion , and ho would noi have left the Palace without having been
arrested . Many hours of the night passed over , aud the Minister remained quietly in his hotel , in conference tvith several foreign agents . In the morning of the 29 th , however , persons attached to the Royal Household announced that tho decree of dissolution of the Cortes had been signed , and that violence had been offered to the Queen to obtain her signature to the decree . The President of the Chamber * it appears , was the first apprised of the circumstance , and those who should have been informed of it first were the last to know it . M . Olozaga then examined the style of the declaration put into the Queen's momh , and contended that it little re-Eembled the language used by her Majesty , and that it was not accordingly her own . The means , besides , employed to draw up the Royal act were illegal .
He next directed the attention of the Assembly to a conspiracy , existing both in Spain and throughout Europe , against the Constitutional Government . He had proofs of its existence , and knew for certain that there were agents in Spain labouring to bring about the marriage of the son of Don Carlos with the Queen . This statement was received with cries of " No , no ! " and excited a tumult which the President appeased with much difficulty . M . Olozaga , however , persieted in his declaration , and , after attacking the actors in the scene at the Palace who refused to allow him to be present and justify himself , and branding in energetio terms the imprudent courtiers who compromised the throne , he concluded by recommending the adoption of the address to the Queen , and bis own impeachment for the offence with which he was charged .
M . Pidal , the President , vacated the chair , and ascended the tribune . He said , tbat the disclosures and arguments of Olozaga merely tended to convince him of the truth of the words of the Qjeen , which he had never doubted , and whioh no Spaniard should doubt . The remainder of his speech consisted of recriminations against M . Olozaga , for bis desertion of the banner of conciliation , aud his choosing his colleagues in the Ministry from among the Progesista party alone . As respected his interference in the affair then before the Chamber , M . Pidal £ t&ted , that the first time he was sent for by
the Queen , and beard from her lips the account of the violence she had suffered , he could not refrain ! from shedding tears , on witnessing the simplicity , innocence , and accent of truth with which Her Majesty narrated the fact . The dismissal of M . Olozaga had been constitutional , for it was recommended not only by him ( M . Fidal ) , but likewise by all tba persons present , and the Ministers Serrano and Fries . The coalition had been dissolved , but it was by those who eat on the left benches of the House . M . Pidal having concluded , the Assembly , owing to the lateness of the hour , adjourned .
More Blood . —The Times correspondent writing from Madrid on tbc 4 th , says : —Last night , as the clock of the Puerta del Sol was striking ten , and the post-office window was bolted against foreign correspondents , a volley was beard in the adjoining street ( La Calle Mayor ) , and soon after another , and another , and another ! The troops and the people were firing on each other in front of La Tills ( the Town-house of Madrid ); and thus terminated the third and most festive of the three days appointed to celebrate the Queen ' s accession to power , upon which fountains or' milk and wine were set running in tho Plaza Mayor , in honour of the happy event , music was heard in the principal equares , the public buildings illuminated , and the crowd in front of the
brilliant villa were dancing to their national airs . The origin of this sudden change from festivity to warfare was related to me by an eye-witness . Four well-dressed men were walking along the Calle Mayor amusing themselves , compelling those whom they met to cry Viva la Reina and Muera Espartero , ' - with various success—the majority avoiding or tolerating them as a drunken partyan exhibition exceedingly rare in Madrid , where the street population is exemplary on the score of sobriety , and the observance of that cardinal point of politeneesi non-interference with each other . They at la ? t met with one poor fellew who was qaite as strndy as polite , and took their request very seriously . He insisted ou crying Viva Reina
Constitutional , and not crying Muera Espartero ! whereupon they fell upon him and thrashed him . He resisted and returned the blows , when cane-swords were drawn on him by the party , and he prudently ran away towards La Tills , calling for assistance . The four aggressors pursued him , and one discharged a pistol , whereupon the dance broke up , aud plenty of paisanot dame to the rescne . The offenders were pronounced to be officers in disguise , intent on getting up an alboroto ( something more than a riot ) , ' as an excuse for calling out the troops , and perhaps declaring a state of siege in the city . Peaceful people , women , aud children instantly ran home by back streets ; the hardier stayed and awaited the conflict . The result I only know by general report ; that troop 3 hurried to the spotTrom the Pest-offiae and charged on the raonle : that fire-arms were discharged on both sides :
and that individuals were killod and wounded in the crowd ; how many it is at present impossible to learn , for the friends of the sufferers in such cases are not very willing to complain of personal Bufferings which might lead to greater in the shape of prosecutions , imprisonment , and the iciiction of capital punishment at the hands of the offended military authorities , eager to make " examples . " Two deaths amongst the citizens are already confessed , but individuals who ought to know say that they amount to five , and that the wounded are nineteen . AmongBt them is a lady , one of a private party , who was seated in a coffee-bonse in the Calle Mayor , into which a bait from a soldier ' s musket entered and wonnded her in the hip . This moraine the angry feelings of the populace had not sunaided at the hour when the Congress assembled , and the result of their expression w ^ s that the troops were ordered to clear the Plaaa del Oriente with fixed bayonets .
Another correspondent of the Times Btates that the foiled Moderados , finding Oloaaga proof to the terrors of imprisonment ^ ( w ith the extra anticipation of being found dead therein some fine morning and & bottle of poison placed at his right hand , so that it arghi be taken for granted he had committed suicide ia despair , ) they have opened aegooiations with him to mop his m 6 uth . promising , as ihe con-

sideration , to feeouro his embassy to Ftanco once more , and even to allow him to abuse the Camarilla to his heart ' s content , but to leave Luis Gonzales Bravo and Narvaca in command here . The Duke de Gluokaburg is the mediator , and the negociations for " peace at any price" were going on at the French Embassy till four o ' clock this moming . Olozaga was willing to accede to the compromise , but Cortina , who now is at the head of a powerful opposition in the Congress , and on whom Olozaga relies for fair-play , would not listen to the " transaction" He insists on the resignation of the Camarilla , that is , in fact , on Narvafz retiring from his post of Captain-General and La Marquesa of Santa Cruz from that of
Camerara Mayor . As to : Gonzales Bravo , he says , " He will fall of himself . " Thus party war Btill is the order of the day . I understand that orders to that effect have also been sent to the provinoes . A new score of insurrections are expected next month- '¦ BabceLona . —The Phare of Bayonne states , from its correspondent on the Catalonian frontier , who writes under the date of the 2 nd instant , tbat General Sanz , the Captain-General of the Province , had arrived at FigHeras on the 1 st with a battalion of infantry and two squadrons of cavalry . Previously to his leaving Barcelona , he had published a proclamation , expelling from that city every person who had taken any part in the late
insurrection . "Madbid , Dec . 5 . —The Ministry has been this day constituted . M . Gonzales Bravo , President of the Council ; General Maserado , Minister of War ; Marquis of Penaflorida , Minister of the Interior ; M . Mayans , of Justice : M . Portillo , of the Navy . The Minister of Finance is not yet appointed . The debate on the projected address is not yet concluded . Madrid is tranquil . Canada . —It is reported that Sir Charles Metcalf has resigned the Governorship . Severe indisposition is assigned as the cause . ^ ortitqax ^—The Govermenthaving undertaken no lest than 130 prosecutions of the pr $ jas since 1840 , in all of which they have failed , not obtaining a solitary conviction 11 have introduced the project of a law to prevent the ** abuses" of the press .
The opposition journals , it is hardly neoessary to add , treat of it in terms of unmeasured reprobation . The Tribuno of tho 27 th instant concentrates the import of two columns of comment in the following suggestion : — " The people from this time ought to form associations in all the towns and villages . " In the government papers , co-existent with the publication of the project of law for suppressing "the abases of the press , " an ordinance appears for a new recruitment , for the purpose of bringing the effective miltary force to the complement of twenty-four thousand men—the standing army fixed by the Cortes for the present year , whioh had undergone a considerable diminution from desertion and other causes . The nature of the remedy for the abuse of the liberty of the press is such as to render measures of precaution of this kind its necessary accompaniments .
GREECE . —The new National Assembly of Greece was opened at Athens , on the 20 th ult ., by ( he King in person , who . made a speech from the throne , in which he said * u Free municipal laws , provincial councils , and trial by the jury , were the precursors of representative government in Greece . Our task now is to place the crowning stone on the ediBco , by the introduction and establishment of a Constitution . " UNITED STATES . —Philadelphia , Nov . 1 » , 1843 . —Another movement has taken place in the Oregon question . The committee appointed at a publio meeting in Philadelphia , have published an address to American citizens residing in Oregon , recommending that Congress should pass laws taking Oregon into possession , make military roads , &o . In one passage in says : — " We want no treaty—we
might as well make a treaty with Great Britain about Philadelphia . " * • " Let 30 , 000 Americans , each with a stout heart , and a stanuch rifle in his hand , emigrate to Oregon , and we phall have no war . " The document will be read with deep interest in England . Remember , there are now seventeen English forra . stations , or villages in the Oregon territory , and quite a large settlement at the mouth of the Columbia . Every day developed more and more the danger of this question , which ought to be settled without further delay . I have no hesitation in asserting that , in the treaty of Washington , it might have been settled with greater facilities to both nations than now . What a shook * ing blunder—the omiBsion ! The popular feeling in this country is adverse to allowing to England a single foot of ground , in the Oregon territory , either north Or south of the Columbia .
The new " Native Americana , " or " American Republican" party , in New York , have held two or three meetings , at which the leading Whigs and leading democrats have been blamed as the mere heads of factions . The speakers and resolutions say — " We want a truly American and republican feeiiug to prevail to sustain the honour and the credit of the country , both at home and abroad . They have been sacrificed to faction . We will restore them !" This party , depend upon it , will augment rapidly in power , influence , and numbers . But the most extraordinary feature in it at the present time is the hostility it exhibits against the Church of Rome . This feeling has been called out in consequence of his Holiness , the Pope , having recently appointed several new Bishops in the United States . The " American Republicans" are adverse to the Pope exerting any kind of power whatever in the United States .
The Madisonian is still urging the annexation of Texas to the United States , and is followed and supported by the pre = s of tho South . That of the North is averse to the admission of Texas , except as a free state . These ara merely the preludes to stormy debates on that most exoiteable of subjects in the coming Congress , for it ib clear that the Texas annexation question will open the whole matter of slavery in its consideration at Washington . West INDIES . —Lord Elgin opened the Session of the House of Assembly at Jamaica on the 24 th of October .

psr : Iy IkmHiar , paiiij scricas , said , * ' Tamos firma vue ^ ira ZlajettaP The Queen signed , and said nothing 35 10 what happened ; but on the following day ( vUi 29 Ui ) , when rising , the Marchioness of San- -jt Craz ijsrint ; a ^ ked what hai passed at the interview » viih M . 01 oz 3 ga , die told her the above feet * , aud asked what she onght to do . The Marchtosess recommended xo her to consult General 2 faTF > i . 2 , which ske did . when the general came to the Psiitiie to dtmand the psss-wcid . The Qaeen told mm what tiid happened , and N&rvatz immediatelj deiercaDed to eall il . Pidal , General Serrano , M . Pna 5 , M . Mazarcoo , the inTHi&ry governor and pcHiic&l chief of Madrid ? M . Gouzaieo Bravo , and MIL Alcoa and Q ,-. mia , the Tice-j > resident 3 of the Coi ^ grtss . The retult was the decree dismissing Olozaga , which appeared in the Gaxetls .
This 13 one version , but we ia ? e another quite as likely to be true : — Oii . the eTening of the 28 ih , Olozaga repaired to ihe p&l&ee , and presented the decree of dissolution to tht Qaeen , who signed it , yriviiout ihe least demur , as a mailer of course . To ibow that she was then on iha most cordial terms with Olotaga , she inquired , as was usual with her , after hi 3 young { iaaghier , and sent cer by him a case of sweetmeats . This trivial ineideni shows at least tbat the trumped cp story of violence bein ^ nsed , and the Queen leaving m tears , was all a mere fabrication . Had the Qaeen resisted s-igning the dfcree , shed tears , covered her face ' with ier hands , aa the Seraldo has It to-day , and been actually forced by Olozaga toEign it , is i \ credible that ai ber age she ¦ woula have let the v * hclo evening pass by , and have taken no notice of it to *« ho people who are always about her till the next day ?

The great point in the Deputies wa =, whether OI < -iiaa . should have an opporxuoity allowed for stating what had occurred s * the palace , and rt-buuiLg the charges circulated against him . The Mcderados tried to prevent it , on the grotmd that by becoming minister he had eeasea to i * e a uepjty , and having been dismissed from the ministry , be had no right to sit in the Chamber in eiihar capacity . Olozaga , however , entered ihe house with the other members , and took his &tat , End thc-n arose a tremendous nproar , the peoplB in * uc galleries , which were thronged to overflowing , g . " . mp . up and giviag cheera upon cheers as he entere-a ine house . There were , of course , a few
demoBSir-iuans of an opposite charsc : er . The tumult "iras bo great thai ihe President left the chair , and sngpecdtd the sitting for half an hour . Business Tras resumed at tbe end of that time ,-when the secretary , having read tho rnits of the house bearing spon the ease , Olczaga got up and claimed his right to give the explanations be had to make to the Chamber and me country . upon the important eventJ that had transpired through the press ; he claimed the rVnt , bi-cause , althoujth subjeet to re-election by ihe constitution on becoming & minister , yet , by the standing raies of the Chamber , it was necessary , T > efore a member ' s seat was Taested , that notice Should be siven by the secretary of the same , and a fresh election be moved for : this rule had not been complied with since he took tfnee , and he claimed ihe benefit oi ihe omksion , particularly as , under the cireumsvancesj he h&d a claim npon the generosity of the Chamber .
TTfcis was violently opposed by ihe Moderados . Ultimately the proposition to exclude Olozaga and hiB colleagues was xeierred to the bnreaux to appoint a CommiEsion to examine it , by a majority of 1 % to 75 votes , the former being thePxofiressfsta party , snd the i * t , er Vue Moderados . Thus far Oloiaga triumphs . In the Senate ike Qaeen ' s declaration was read by Gonzal&s Bravo , in his capacity of chief notary , confirming ibe story circulated of Olozaga respecting the manner in which she had been induced to sign
the decree dissolving the Cortes . It iB stated to be drawn up io-day in the presence of Gonzales Bravo , the President , Yice-Preadents , and Secretaries of the two Chaaoera ; tie Dukes of Frias and Castro Teneno , Wntiralsi Swrano and Warvaez , Lleopart , President of the ^ Jbunal « f JnsUoe ; ine DukTof Hnar , Marquis of Malpica , Marquis of St .

FOREIGN MISCELLANY . Disorders in Hungary ^ . —The Journal de Fran Itfort has a letter from Presburg of the 26 th ult ., which eays : — " A spirit of disorder haa lately been so violently displayed in this city , that the Grand Equerry of Hungary , who is at the head of the police of the kingdom , has published a proclamation , announcing that the Emperor has issued an ordonnance forbidding the collection of all bodies of the people ia the streets , either by day or night , under any pretence whatever .
Thb Slave Trade . —Extract of a letter received at Lloyd's from their agent at St . Vincent ' s : — " A slaver , for the negroes were seen on deck with the naked eye , and two other vessels bearing all the appearance of carrying on the same dreadful traffic , have passed down the south-east channel of this island within the last four weeks . They run close over to the Bignia shore until they run about ten miles ; past the west end of that island , and then haul away to the northward . No doubt one of them h the same as seen out of the Commercial Room windows at Barbadoea , Captain Petty , of the brig Belfast , now here , says one possed close under his stern , and that he saw tho negroes on deck . The owners of these slavers are well aware that during the hurricane months nearly all
men-of-war are snugly ensconced in the Carenage , Grenada , and run down this clear passage in three or four hours , and then bear away for Porto Rico or Cuba perfectly safe . A small fast steamer , during the hurricane season , could lie in Calloaqua , a smooth , safe , and hurricane-bound harbour , and by having a look out from Fort Devirnette could interrupt one of these vessels with the greatest ease . If government were to station a small fast sailing steamer there during the next hurricane months , if it should be as it has been this year , they would take from 1500 to 2000 negroes , without saying what may pass during the night ; but if the parties should get scent of it I suppose they will take the St . Lucia Channel . Souffriere Bay , St . Lucia , but for the hurricanes , would be a good place for another steamer . "
