Private Correspondence.
PARIS, Aug 9.
The Regency at Madrid is proceeding
with in aec-isiomed frenzy. One of its
Serrctaries of S: itc (the secret aries of state
ol these ntei !) lately boasted to a gentle
man, whose loiter describing the conversa
tion has reached Paria.tlia: they had 50,0'JO
persons either in prison or on their istti ol
proscription. "It is true,” he added, "that
wc l ave 100.000 Frenchmen as their gaol
ers, and they pretend that they will prtrent
ns from attacking their prisoners; but ore
these gaolers never to sleep? and arc they
always to insist upon our tolerating their
pmiccti"i.? Vet, for hoiv many days, it
may he asked, would you exist us a regen

Nothing has of late been disclosed by Go
vernoient respecting the state of Barcelona,
hut every thing announces that the garrison
and the inhabitants are animated with the
m .st patriotic zeal and determined spirit
of resistance The following extract of a
letter from a General Officer serving in the
blockade shows to what a pitch the public
mind is exalted:—"l am lodged in the house
of a Colonel ol Militia,who on ourapproach
retired with his regiment behind the lines.

giment. anil gives daily proofs of devoti n

A Turkish mail arrived yesterday, and
brought letters from Constantir.nple’of the
10th and Irom Smyrna of the 3d ul!. At
the capital nothing important had occurred,
but the accounts Irom Smyrna evince, that
the Turks persist in their determination to
make the present contest a war of extermin
ation. An inroad had been made hy the
Turkish troops from Smyrna on the inhab
itants of the surrounding district, and more
than 6no individuals had been put to the
s-v -rrl This slaughter might, perhaps, if
resistance had been made, admit (ustifica
tion from the usages of‘‘civilixed” warfare;
but a hostile movement by the Pacha of
Bosnia in the vicinity of Volin, was marked
by all the atrocities which unusually distin
guish the incursions of barbarians. Twcn-
ty-lour villages have been laid in ashes by
the fury of his soldiers. Two of the prin
cipal villages tendered their unconditional
submission to the Pacha, but it produced
no other effect, than an order to put all the
male population to the sword, and sell all
the women to slavery. These atrocities,
however, produced the natural result ol in
flaming the Greeks In the highest degree
against their cruel enemies, and animating
them to the teverest retaliation. Their
cause, on the whole, is evidently in a pros
perous condition,
LONDON, AUGUST 20.
The Paris papers of Sunday, which srriv.

subject ol Cadiz, and are in other respects
quilo barren of intelligence.
LIVERPOOL, AUG. 22.
Spain—The ominous reports that Fer
dinand was his own master, and that the
Coites had retired from Ca-nz, are undoubt
edly false. Someol thi- Buurimn apologists
say that this news is indeed pie -aturc, but
that it only anticipates what must happen
The sanguinary excesses said to have been
committed by the Ultras at Madrid, upon
hearing the report of of these events (if net
exaggerated) will serve to show the Con
stitutionalist* what they may expect, should
the absolute monarchy faction get the up
f ier hand. These wretches, according to
otters from Madrid of the nth inat. com-
pelted the Constitutionalists or those who
were suspected to he such, to illuminate,
their houses s they paraded the atree:s, and
committed the most Irantic outrages, pillag
ing the dwellings of the peaceful inhabitants,
about twenty of whose lives ware sacrificed
to their lawless rage, before their dreadful
excesses -were cheeked by the French
troops.
It would appear that the Duke d'Angou.
■erne it the Spanish Regency are on terms
which demand arbitrary enactmenta on the
part of the former to restrain the furious
royalty of the latter. The Courier gives ■
decree from the Duke, dated Andujar, 8th
Inst- which he quotes as received, without
vouching for its authenticity. Cireunistan
cat warrant some dependance upon it. Ita
main points are;
*1. The Spanish Authorities shall not
make any prisoner* wit oui authority
“2. The Commanders in Chiel ot the
corps under our command shall drmand the
release of all prisoners of all prisoners, who
may have been imprisoned in any arbitrary
manner for political motives especially sol
diera, that they may return to iheirhomea,
excepting such as after liberation shall give
cause of complaint.
Another clause put publishers and peri-
odieal writing under the direction of com
manders of corps. Fine censors tiuly!
Our correspondent state, on the authori
ty of later advices from Paria than Ihe a-
hove, that d'Augouleme had actually dis
solved the Regency at Madrid, and made
other great changes.
It is quite certain that the Regency did
every thing in their power to induce the
.Duke <l‘Angoute ne to let them accompany
his march to Cadiz. They threatened to
move Ihemsclv es with the French head
quarters—upon which the Duke declared
that they sh -uldin that case send them back
to Madrid under a military escort. Tins
is said to hare given offence to the Ambas
sailor of-a I ireign power which has the
greatest influence over the Regency —

The oppom ntiof Mr. Berrien Im-.ng been sue.
eeM^ely driven from every ground which thry
occupied, have at a last desperate resource ralli
ed all tkeir force* tv maintain a single point—the
objection to bit conduct on the subject of the
dry culture, in the attempt to defend which, they
are destined t. experience a defeat still more sig
nal than any which lias preceded it. When to the
explanatory facts, uf which the public are alrea

Ingenuous men who luve made this the ground
of opposition, will then it is presumed have the
magnanimity to do him that justice, which under
a mistaken view of hit conduct they have hither-

Thii course was suggested hy Mr. Berrien un
der a belief that it would be acceded to and ren-
der a indicia! inve-tigation unnecessary, and his
engagement with Mr. Stiles, was on the express
condition that the validity of the contract should
in no event be impeached—a course in which
professional interest yielded to public duty and
private friendship without bringing them in con
flict.
Under such circumstance* I cannot conceive
how Mr Berrien has arrayed himself against tim
interests and feelings of the community, for aurc!>
it can have no concern beyond justice and heim
proposed noting short of it.
The Dry Culture system is deservedly cherish
edby those who have an intelligent anxiety for
the welfare of the city and I have personal know
ledge of Mr. Berrien's decided feeling in its be-
half, I must therefore deprecate the argument
which assigns ta him a motive foreign to his semi'
ment% and measures his conduct by thia gratuit-
assumption.
