Their papers confirmed the suspicions of a conspi racy, which had been for some time entertained. It embraces many officers of the Army of Spain, some of whom would have been near the person of his Royal Highness the Commander in Chief. Two (if the Aides-de-Camp of General Guilleminot are im plicated in the plot. I have heard (though it does not rest on the same authority) that Gen. Guile minot himself; who is chief of the Duke d'Angou leme's stall; and who, from his high military cha racter, was appointed the Mentor of the Prince, is likewise implicated. The Minister of War will proceed post-haste.to the army, and order the arrest of the conspirators in person. Promptitude and de cision in such a case are ngeessary to success. I have not as yet been able to collect the necessary details either with respect to the extent of the con spiracy, or the object of the conspirators. It of course was intended to effect a change of dynasty by means of a military revolt, but in whose favour, or by whose co-operation, I as yet know nothing." TIIE FUNDS. YESTERDAY.• HALF-PAST Two o'CLocc. Consols opened this morning at 741, soon after twelve o'clock moved to 74i, and. , are. nowi74l. The quantity of business has been considerable. On Easter Monday.fand Tuesday, the Transfer Offices will not be opened. Next Monday being settling dny in Foamost, the Bears in Spanish have been forced into the market, which has occasioned a rise of one and two per cent. Bonds: which yesterday closed at 27k, opened this morning at 271, and advanced. to 29, at which-price considerable soles were effected. Cotomatssi.—The market looks well at 574 to 58, but the quantity of business, not considerable.. All Foreign Securities have been better through out the day. French Rentes on Thursday, 78f. 40e. money. EIYONNII. MARCH 20.—The Marshal Dake of Reggio arrived in this city yesterday,. to take the. command of the first corps of the-army. M. %Card; the intendant General, is also arrived. The move ment of the troops continues, and all go to take up cantonments on the frontiers, as they arrive. Of the two battalions of infantry of the Guard, one has gone into cantonments in the &while of Bay. onne, and the other, which is to do duty about the Duke of Angouleme, remains is the eity. It is im possible to form an idea of the immense quantities of provisions which are- preparing, and of the large bums of money that arc daily employed; and yet it is with difficulty that forage is procured at Bay onne. and in the environs. The want of this article is much more sensibly felt in the three provinces of Biscay; and it is inipossible that Navarre, though fertile, should long support 18,000 or 20,000 horses, which there will be with this army. On Friday last the Police arrested, in. the Bourg.- la-Reine, the Bourdeaux Diligence, in which were beveral military men going towards the South,, with false passports, and under false names. Gen. Pint is named amongst the officers who have been arrest ed.. Many reports on this subject are in circulation in Paris, which the future only will explain. It -is said that a great number of . papers, trunks, Sze. which were forwarded by the Diligence, have been sealed up. It is difficult to believe that these pro ceedings of the Police have nut been provoked by important indications. It will not be long before the intentions of these travellers, who were so soli citous to conceal their gainer and their journey, will be di►covered. Seville, to which King Ferdinand and the Go vernment are to remove from Madrid, is the most extensive and beautiful city in Spain. It is the capital of Andalusia, and famous tor its University. It bears the title of the Royal City. The Metropo litan Church and the Palace, called the Alcacar, are considered incomparable works. Travellers admire the town-hall, the bank, and the aqueduct, which brings water into the city. They have 120. hospitals and public institutions, It is a common saying in Spain, that " he who has not seen Seville has seen no wonders!' Among a great number of illustrious men this city has produmd, we find Miguel Cervantes, and Diego Vulaeptes. It stands on an extensive plain, abounding in al} that is ne cessary for the comfort and pleasures of life. The beautiful Gua-del•quivir runs near the city, which is about eighteen leagues front the sea. It is four leagues West of Grenada, 73 East by South from Lisbon, and 85 South by East from Madrid. A French periodical work announces that a large quantity of healing plaister, fur the use of the Duke d'Angouleme, has been forwarded to his Royal Highness at Toulouse, by the chymist of his house hold ! The severity of the cold in the United States has been very remarkable this winter. At Albany, on the 10th of February, the temperature was 18 deg. below zero of Fahrenheit.

'rive bodies of about twenty.nine persons, principally females, were landed from the several boats, and were stretched out in different pails of a field near the water side. The mint awful and melancholy spectacle here pre sented itself to the view. Mothers with their ittfauts at their hearts, exhibited the last dying efforts to chug to life ; but, alas, they clasped nothing tpitj the inns:cent infant, who, with its battle mother, su audeleitly, and so soon were immerged in a watery grave.

From the construction of Buckingham-house, some diffi- • culty was felt as to the means of remedying this fatal inconvenience, till one of the architects, who thought the foundation of life of much more im. • portance then the mere ornaments of it, observed that the octagon room in which the books• were, . would make a superb kitchen. It was. then pro posed to sell the library, but this was objected to by the Ministers, and the idea then arose of giving the collection to the public—an idea not the least praise worthy, because the train of thought which led to it had it origin in the wish to gratify the hospitable predilections of our beloved monarch." KINGSTON, JAMAICA, Firs •B.—The death war rant for the execution of the pirates included tea in number, who were, . about an hour before down of day yesterday morning, token front the gaol, under a guard of soldiers from the 50th regiment and the City Guard.

Montilla was on the march . with a very superior force to attack Morales in Ma ratatibo ; and Puez had returned to Valencia from the interior, his presence there being no longer ne cessmy to put an end to the disailixtion which had broken out among the.lndians. The commercial in tercourse with Caraw►san' L:tguayra was conse quently on t mush better fou.ing, and the commerce with the Main generally had acquired greater faci lities by.'the protection of two Danish ships of war which soiled to and from the coast as convoy. The fact seems now fully established of the ascendaney of the Colombian fleet at see, which held Puerto Covello in strict blockade.
