CORUNNA, Fun 10.—Yesterday afternoon, at faur o'clock, a drunken man called out, " Long live the King, and perish t:ie Constitution ;" he was imme diately arrested, but not till he haul received some severe blows from-the persons who heard his sedi tious cries. The occurrence caused many persons to assemble, who demanded the punishment of all the delinquents. Order was maintained without difficulty during the night. At 12 o'clock to day people began running about the streets; the doors of the houses were shut, and several persons appeared armed with pistols and sa bres, demanding the heads of the prisoners brought from Oreuse, who were confined in the Castle. But this commotion wits kept down by the appear ance of the troops and the exertions of the magis trates. In the afternoon fresh groupes assembled with the same demand. The General appeared at the balcony and addressed them, afterwards went down into the square, and assured them that the law would punish the delinquents. He nick all the necessary precautions, sent out patroles, &c. and all was soon made quiet. FRENCH PARIS, MARCH s.—We have just received a private litter from Naples, dated the 15th which supplies the fidlowing details:— To-day, at the breaking up of a long sitting, in which the report of a committee nominated the preceding evening to examine the ultimatum of the powers was read, the Prince Regent left the hall at the head of the members of the parliament, anti pro nounced, betbre the assembled multitude, the form of a declaration of war against Austria and the coa lesced powers. The troops have received orders to march. General Carascosa has taken the supreme command. Begani has int renched himself in Gaeta. The Neapolitan troops appear to have a design of marching against Rome. A proclamation in the Latin language, which it is thought has been drawn up at Naples, has been disseminated amongst the Ilungarian regiments which tore part of the Austrian army in Italy. VIENNA, Feb. 2 I.—Notwithstanding all rumours to the contrary, the certainty of war has in no degree shaken Public credit. One filet suffices to prove this ; the fund, yesterday were at 70 5-16Llis 3 tc-day they are ut 72, and every thing indicates a further rise. MAnnin, Feb. 2b-Since the late disturbances, assassinations have increased in this capital : not a night passes without some new victim fidling beneath the stiletto. '1 he King's health gradually improves. His Majesty has resumed his accustemed airings. His carriage, and that containing his children, are now encircled by strong detachments of the regiment d'Ahnanza. It is remarked that the population of Madrid has recently been augmented very consider ably by new residents. The last time that his Ma jesty went out numerous persons of distinction were observed amongst the crowd, in very simple attire. It appears that many eminent men, sincerely de voted to their Sovereign, make it a ditty to watch over his sacred person ; and that it' the scandalous scenes which took place on the 4th and sth instant should be revived, his . Majesty will find, besides Lis guard, a thousand arms raised Inc his protection. The Monitear contains a report of the trial of Guindon, alias Roquefort, found guilty of the tour der of Marshal Brune. It was on the .‘441 of August, 1815, this shocking event took place. On the morn ing of that day the Marshal and his suite were passing through A vi ; olon, on their way through Marseilles to Paris. The carria;e was stopped and surrounded by an enraged multitude. They ex claimed that he must suffer the fate of the Duchess of Lambelle, whose head they charged him with having carried on the top of a pike. The civil au thorities were unable to protect him. He darted from his carriage, and sought refuge in the Palais Royal. The populace mounted the roof and pent, trattAl into the house. Having got a view of the Marshal, they fired at him. On the second shut the bullet entered the back of his neck, and passed quite through. The Marshall fell dead. It was proposed to bury the body immediately; hut the populace interered, and threw it into the river.— Roquefort was one of the most violent and active among the populace. LISIWN) Feb. t 7.—On the 13th of this month the Portuguese gdley Alexander I. entered the Tagus from Pernambuco, after a voyage of 48 days; the Captain of this galley reports, tnat two days before his departure news had been received troin Lis .1 metro, that the want% of the vessel John IV. .- .~.;: 'Tr - -- THE NATIONAL REGISTER was nearly terminated, and that he was assured his Majesty intended to come to Portugal on board this vessel. They hoped, at Pernambuco, soon to see the embargo on all vessels destined for the other ports of the kingdom taken off Ctutz, I: Fn. 1 3. An event has occurred here to-day, which would be incredible if we did not know what excesses the sanguinary enemies of our institutions are capable of. The boys in one of the public schools were repeating this morning the Catechism of the Constitution : among the persons present was a man of respectable appearance, who asked the twister which of the boys was best ac quainted with the Constitution ? The master made no difficulty in pointing hint out, on which the man praising his application, asked permission to take him to a confectioner's to treat him with some cakes. The master agreed, and the man took away the poor boy, not to the coutZ:ctioner's, but into the held, where he beat him in a cruel manner, leaving him weltering in his blood, and nearly dying. In this state he was tbund by some women, who car ried hint to a house. _ _ _ ANDUJAR, FEB. 15. Onr political chief has published tut energetic proclamation, exhorting the inhabitants to deliver up the inflammatory procla mations, great numbers of which has been received by the post.

A letter from Boulogna mations, as a rumour, that a Russian squadron wai tiliversing the Darda nelles, to take its station in the Mediterranean. If so, it is not difficult to foresee its object. It is necessary that Englaad, Feance and Spain, should each have a squadron of observation in the Medi. terranean, for there was no knowing what secret treaty exists between Russia and Austria, in the event of the latter subjugating Naples. Is it not probable that Russia will require a port in the Me diterranean for her assistance.
