SPANISH PAPERS. 251 CEUTA, JULY 16.—The Moorish Ramadan, or Lent, has suspended all communications, and kept us from knowing wlutt was passing in the Empire of Morocco. It appears, however, that important ope rations have taken place ; and, according to the latest intelligence, that Muley Zeid, having learned that his uncle Soliman had prepared a formidable expedition against him, set out for New Fez with his troops, and having defeated those of his uncle, took the whole train of artillery, consisting of six teen cannon, three mortars, and a large quantity of ammunition. Muley Zeid then entered New Fez with his army, whence he intended to march the next week to Teutan and this district, doubtless to act against Tangier (Cohils de Angharu), which remains faithful to his uncle. BARCELONA, JULY 15. —Captain D. A Sorrano, Counsel for D. George Besieres, appealed from the sentence of death passed upon him by the Court martial, and approved of by the Captain-genera), because his client, he s:thl, ought not to have been tried by the law of the 26th of April, and because of other informalities. The execution was in con sequence suspended. We want expressions to de scribe the enthusiasm which this happy news pro duced in this city. D. Be3ieres had shed his blood in the war for our independence ; he participated in the attempt of the heroic Lacy ; he bad greatly con tributed in the year 20 to the triumph of our Con stitution; he is the father of a family, and u stranger. How many reasons to interest a generous people ! A nation which manifests such noble sentiments is worthy of liberty and the high destinies to which it ' is called by Providence. MADRID, JULY 26.—The diary of the proceedings at Cadiz respecting the fatal events of the 10th of March is now published. Our papers begin to make some extracts front this immense body of evidence. His Majesty continues to enjoy good health. LISVON, JULY 20.—The deree of the Cortex re specting the establishment of the civil lists is now published. The King's civil list is 365,000,000 rees per annum, payable in two equal instalments to the persons whom his Majesty shall appoint.— The palace of Adjuda, Alcantara, Mafia, Salvaterra, Vendos, Novas, and Cintra, are assigned for the habitation and recreation of the King, with all their appurtenances and dependencies. The revenues of the House of llraganza will be paid into the public treasury. During the absence of the Prince Royal, the King shall receive the revenues of the Casa del Infantado, assigning to the Infant Don Michael such a revenue as his Majesty shall think tfit.

N i.w YORK, JULY I l.— Commode Barren.— The Court of Enquiry in the case of Commmodore Barron, dosed its sittings yesterday ; and, if we are correctly intbrined, there was not a shadow of evi dence in support of the surmises against this gentle man's character, SAVANNAH, JULY, 3.—We learn from St. Au gustine that the Spaniards were engaged in ship ping off to Havannall the munitions of war at that place—and that the surrender of the province would not be made to the American Government before the 20th inst. From the quibbling conduct of the Spanish authorities, we are of opinion that they will not surrender Florida before the 22d of August, the day which the treaty specifies for its delivery. Then they will be forced to relinquish. HALIFAX, JUNE 27,—His Majesty's brig Bel icht., during the lust cruize, detained, and sent into Digby, 13 American fishing vessels. We received Newfoundland papers to the 15th instant. On the sth the cargo of the schooner Alatchiess, consisting of 651 barrels and 25 half barrels of flour, and 200 bags of bread, which was shipped at this port, and seized by the officers of his Majesty's customs immediately upon its arrival at St. John's, was condemned in the Court of Vice- Admiralty there, on account of its being the property of aliens, inhabitants of Boston. The claimants, it is said, gave notice of their intention of appealing against the decision of the court. ST. ANDREW'S (NEW BRUNSWICK), JUNE 26. We beg leave to congratulate our readers, that the free port act appears at last to be properly under. stood, the collector at St. John's having, after due consultation with legal characters, abandoned the idea of extending its provisions to Passamaquoddy bay : he has, in consequence, given the collector at Indian Island positive orders not to enter or clear a single American. Instructions will, we understand, likewise be forwarded to the collector here, not to clear out any English vessel with American pro duce, that shall not have been taken on board within the bars of this harbour, where all Americans must unload. American vessels, therefore, found loading or unloading in British waters, unless within the specified limits, will be liable to seizure and con demnation. British vessels loading with American produce, admitted by the act (stanling, planks, staves, heading boards, shingles, hoops, horses, neat cattle, sheep, hogs, poultry, or live stock of any sort; bread, biscuits, flour, peas, beans, potatoes, wheat, rice, oats, barley, or grain of any sort; pitch, tar, turpentine, fruits, seeds, and tobacco), that has not been entered at this port, will likewise be seiz able, and there is no doubt the utmost vigilance will be employed in the enforcement of the act according to the true spirit and meaning, New YORK, JULY 9,—We have received Haven nab papers, one of which contains the following intelligence HAVANNAH, JUNE 19.—Captains MUM'S, of the Spanish schooner Gallega, which arrived here this morning in 25 days passage from Vera Cruz, reports that Cul.

The crew at tempted resistance, but were overpowered by the lboarding party. Many vessels are said to be on the coast, employed in this infernal traffic for human flesh, acme of them of large size. NEW LONDON (CONNECTICUT), JULY 4.—The schooner Betsey, Briggs, arrived on Sunday last, in 11 (lays from Bermuda. We have received our usual files of papers by this arrival. The disputes between the Governor and Legislature were still carried on is ith great animosity. The Governor appears deter mined to place all the authorities of the land at his feet. In this policy he is determinedly opposed by the legislature. A few days previous to the sailing of the Sea Serpent, several transports arrived at Bermuda from Halifax, with troops to relieve the garrison of that place. On their arrival the Gover nor called the officers together, and in an address to them, declared that the inhabitants of the island were in a state of rebellion, and that he expected the troops would stand by hint ! He had previously disarmed the militia by calling in the government arms. On one occasion he called the majority of the legislature "a ficti .us, irreligious, and disappoints(' party." The house returned a spirited reply ; and declined any further proceedings until they heard from their petition for the removal of his Excellency. The Governor rejoined—" Blinded by error, or some more dreadful infatuation, you have finally, in direct terms, refused to do your duty. You are pro ceeding at your own peril, and are collectively and individually responsible to your God, your King, and to your country, for the evils you may have en tailed upon the country." And here the business rests between him and the house.

A new minister to the United States, Don Joa quim D'Andruaga, has been appointed in Spain, as a successor to General Vives, and may be daily expected. It is officially announced that the yellow fever has mad its appearance in Baltimore at this early season of the year.

All the accounts from Co lumbia are favourable to the Patriots, who are likely to fight the treat battle with a superior force, and with every prospect of success. Bolivar united with Paez, is 9,000 strong, near to Valencia.

Important advices have been received from Mex ico, by a vessel which sailed on the 9th ult. from Havannah. Colonel Hevia, the commander of the Royalist troops, had been killed in an attempt to carry by storm a strong post near Puebla, held by the Patriots; and his fate had struck so much terror into his troops, us to threaten the most. fatal conse quences to the royal cause. Of the state of the in terior no certain intelligence could be obtained, as the communications between Vera Cruz and Mexic were completely interrupted. The Governor of Vera Cruz had sent to the Havannah fire a reinforcement of troops, not considering his garrison sufficiently strong to support the expected attack of the Patriots. The merchants and rich families at Vera Cruz were in the greatest alarm and confusion : their whole property, in goods and money, to an immense amount, was packed up ready to be shipped off for Havannah and other ports, on the approach of the Patriots. Mr. Oliver, the Ministerial spy, sailed from Ire land tinder the fictitious name of Jones, in a vessel called the Marianne Sophia, for the Cape of Good Hope.
