It is stated in letters which we have received from Mla- dlrid of a late date (to September 21), that the Royalist vo- lunteers are appointed to guard the ex-Minister (RUZ, who is still kept in chGse confinemnent. His trial is said to be proceeding with extraordinary despatclh, and a disclosure of the most alarming projects is promised in the bodly of the evidence wyhich will be adlduced against him. WVitnesses, we are told, will be examinedl to prove that he had givein verbal orders to General CA)'APE to excite ani instirrection in Arragon, anid to detmand theestablishmnent of a reprcsenta- tive Government. This proicct is said to have been em- braced by a great numiiiber of distinguished persons in dif- terent parts of the kingdom, whose safety is now compro- misEdbyits.premature exposure. Government, in looking about for support in this unexpected emergency, can see na safety but in organizing a greatbodyof Royalist volunteers, and thus preparing the elements of a re-action which inay utltimately be more dangerous than the detectud conspiracy. The number of volunteers to be thus leviedt and equipped will, according to report, amount to 200,000 rnen, MIadrid alone supplyin.g 10,000. To show how little relianec can be placed for the support ot' thc Royal cause, or the preser- vationi of the nationial tranquillity, on a force thus created, it is oinly necessary to mention, that it has alreadly been found necessary to disarm these volunteers in Navarre, Ar- ragon, and some other provinces ; and that in Tolcdo it has lately proceeded to sUch1 an excess of violenice, as to ordet out of the city, in twenty-four hours, all persons who had maintained order duirinig the existence of the Cortes. In Madrid itself, Go'-ernment (acting undler the influence of the samc spirit) had 1proceeded witlh seuch rigonr as to coin- pe] all the Constitutional volunteers to deliver Up their arms, an(l to instruct the police to extend their domiciliary visits to the houses of all persons whom they n ight suspect of retaining any means of defenice. iModeration and common sense have becn proscribedl in the persons of the dlisgraced Ministers, Cnuz and OFALIA, who were considered as their organs; and eveII General QUEsADA,whose fanatical loyalty drove him to organize in Navarre an insurrection against the Cortes before the late wvar, is said to have been arrested on a charge of being less furious thani he ought to be. Yet, amid this general confusion-this chaos of criies and misery, without the operation of a single principle of order-we are told by the M14nisters of CHARI.ES X., that theFrenieh expelition has restored tranquillity to Spain, and for ever destroyed the seeds of revolutioni and disaffection !
