The latest accounts received by way of Paris from Madrid,
repre- sent that capital to be in a state of perfect tranquillity. The events in Biscay, and the news of the entry of Don CARLOS into Spain, had produced no apparent impression on the inhabitants. The insurrection in the Northern province's is, however, becoming more formidable. With the exception of Pampelima (which is gar- risoned by 3,060 troops), it is universal in Biscay and Laba ; the pea- santry everywhere declaring for Don Cautos.
The monks had also attempted to raise a revolt in Barcelona ; but were overpowered, and many of them put to the sword, by the Queen's party ; who subsequently pillaged their convents.
