Madrid, December 29.

The amelioration of that system of rigor, with which we had flattered ourselves, is far from having taken place. The ministry of M. de Cevallos has introduced no change.—We are assured there is no unanimity among the King's Council, but it appears in the measures of severity which we were in hopes we should have seen softened, all join, although divided in every other point of administration. Several Spaniards have abandoned their country, and many have hid themselves; in general, secret denunciations as well as those of a more public nature alarm a number of families, because in following the plan of recrimination, in matter of opinion or indulgence towards the government of the intruded King, it is difficult to find exceptions among the entire mass of the people.
