, THE SURRENDER OF SARAGOSSA— DISARMING OF THE NATIONAL

GUARD, AND SUPPRESSION OF LIBERTY IN SPAIN.

With the surrender of Saragossa, and the disarming of the National Guard throughout the provinces, the suppression of Spanish liberty is complete for the instant ; and O'Donnell | and the Queen have covered themselves with success and infamy. Yet the despots who of course look on exultingly may have little real cause to rejoice; since Spain thus| violently driven back from liberal government may only find therein the motive, as she certainly possesses the power, to) throw herself further forward than ever in the direction of

The official Madrid journal of the 30th ult., publishes the following despatches :—* The Captain-General of Granada writes to the Minister of War, on the 27th—* By an extra- ordimary dexpatch of this day, the Governor of the Castle of Gibralfaro, Commander of the Civie Guard, informs me, that at 9 o'clock a.m. he took possession of the city of Malaga without resistance. He was assisted in the operation by the war steamer Castilla and a division of Coast Guards. The Governor, without losing an instant, caused the most im- portant points to be occupied, and issued a bando, proclaim- ing martial law. He at the same time went over the whole city, re-opened the communications intercepted by the barricades.

PERILS OF O'DONNELL, TIE DICTATOR.

Marshal O'Donnell is now the acknowledged master of the situation,—the “ monarch of all he surveys, his right there ic none to dispute "—lor the moment; but it may be that the time is not far distant when disputants will rise up “with power to add to their number,” and moreover those disputants may have means at their command wherewith to back their arguments. The dictitor has numberless enemies even in the army. The Marshal has granted a variety of immanities, privileges and perquisites to the army; the troops are promised two years to be taken from their period of service ; honours and decorations are heaped upon his con- federates; Concha gets the Golden Fleece; and orders are showered upon the accomplices who took part in this great ecrime—-but even O'Donnell, powerful though he be, eannot content everybody, and for every soldier or officer who is rewarded he makes enemies of an hundred on whom he has nothing to bestow. The Navas Chasseurs gave out that they intended to “ pronounce ” for Espartero ; a regiment of artil- lery expressed its readiness and desire to join in this demon- stration, which, however, was put down by the distribution of 300 reals to each man ; the soldiers bargained for 500, bat after much haggling this condottieri consented to accept the 300; nor is this by any meaNs an isolated instance. A spirit of discontent and disapprobation of O Donnell’s conduet is steadily gaining ove the army, spreading through its ranks, where still lurks the long-cherished love of that chivalrous, but somewhat too lazy soldier, Kepartero. A military in- surrection is fag from a remote contingency. General Sanz, one of the ablest officers in the service, has blown out his brains at Lamora, preferring as he said, death to dishonour.

And now for vengeance: O'Donnell is beginning his butcheries and fusillades. He crushes all bis personal enemies. General Ruiz is deprived of bis rank and power, and is handed over to the tender mercies of a court martial ; but how comes

Senor Madoz added, with chivalrous dignity, that he came there of his own accord ; that he felt it to be his duty to make this declaration, and that he was ready to abide by the con- sequences ; that he had done what he conceived to be his duty, and that he should do so again if placed under similar

head. He can shoot his personal enemies, men of little note, but he cannot venture to lay his hand on Senor Madoz, who beards him in his own den.

RUSSIAN DISASTER IN ASTA.

The German Frankfort Journal states that General Chruleff, who commanded a division at Sebastopol during the seige, and who was then sent into Asia, has advanced too far towards the | Persian frontier. Deprived of all communication, and with his flanks threatened by the Kurds and Circassians, he has been compelled hastily to retreat across the vast steppes of that region, and the fate of his army remains yet in doubt.

DESIGNS OF RUSSIA IN FINLAND.

The last post from Finland confirms the report, already com- municated, of Russia’s intention to establish a new first-rate naval station and arsenal on the island of Kasko, in the Gulf of Bothnia, where she will be able to carry out the extensive designs originally formed for Bomarsund. The island lies so close to the mainland that it is connected to it by a wooden bridge 200 feet long. The little town on Kasko contains about 000 inhabitants, who carry on a thriving trade with the produce of their extensive fisheries, and have enjoyed the so-called right of staple ever since the year 1785. The harbor is considered the found best in Finland, only yielding the palm to Helsingfors.

TERRIBLE STORM AT TIE SOUTH.

Great Desraucrion or Properry — 137 Lives Lost.— A terrible storm (to which we alluded in our last) occurred in the vicinity of New Orleans on Saturday the 10th. It lasted all day and also Monday. Its effects were most dis- astrous at Last Island, a summer resort and which accounts represent to have been entirely inundated. Every building on the Island js said to have been swept away, and no less than one hundred and thirty-seven lives are reported lost.

The steamer Star, Capt. Smith, which left New Orleans on the 9th, encountered the storm before reaching Last Islond, and became perfectly unmanagable and was soon afterwards a perfect wreck.

The seene among the passengers was terrific, there being no less than 250 persons clinging to the wrecked fragments of the vessel, each anxiously waiting the arrival of some other vessel to take them off. Whether any of this company were lost is not yet known, though hopes are entertained that all were saved, as a steamer is understood to have gone to their relief.

Couillon Island has been submerged, but the accounts from thence are very meagre. It is reported, however, that an immense amount of property and many lives have been lost.

She ships Bowditch aud Ellerslie also the brig Creole, which were lying near the mouth of the river, have all been seriously damaged by the storm.

On the Jake and river we also bear of numerous steamboats, flatboats, and other craft being injured. Nearly all the wharves at the watering places have been inundated, and the buildings thereon, bath-houses, etc., swept away.

Altogether the loss of property must be very heavy, but it is impossible now to calculate the amount.

The crops, it if feared, have alse suffered severely.

Further accounts to the 15th verify the above, and state that it has been positively ascertained that 188 persons have been lost.

lt is feared that Grand Caillon Island, another watering place, has also been submerged, and that many lives have been lost as well as property destroyed. The corn, cotton, aud sugar crops have been incalculably injured.

Many of the survivors have arrived at New Orleans. All from Last [s!and are badly wounded and bruised. The dead bodies at the Island were plundered by a set of pirates whe inhabit it. Tie steamer Perseverance has just arrived, but nothing has as yet been heard from the Nautilus.

The Louisiana arrived at Galveston on the 14th, picking up on the way the cabin door of the steamer Nautilus, which vessel, it is now supposed, was lost during the late storm.

Nothing definite has yet been heard from Caillon Island, but there has undoubtedly been a great loss of life. It is reported that thirty bodies have been found on one end of the Island. It is supposed that at least $10,000 in money in pockets fell into the hands of of the pirates on Last Island, and about $5000 worth of baggage. The loss on this island is estimated at over $10,000. The banks of the river at Bayou Sara caved in, carrying away 300 residences. No lives were loss. Several vessels were blown ashore at the mouth of the Mississippi. The telegraph lines have suffered severely. The loss at Caillon Island cannot fall short of $60,000.

Farat Cottistox 1x Boston Harpor.--Asa boat containing a pleasure party consisting of ten persons was returning from a trip down the Harbor, it came into collision with the East Boston Ferry steamer, and was instantly sunk. Five females were drowned, the other five of the party (men) were rescued. The occurrence seems te have been purely accidental.

Kansas.—A dispatch from St. Louis gives an extract from an extra of the Westport (Mo.) Border Ruffian, issued on the 13th inst., which states that two hundred Free Soilers had attacked the town of Franklin, in Kansas, and, after four hours’ fighting, had retired, carrying off the cannon belonging to the town, The accouuts as to the number of lives lost are contradictory. The United States troops occupied the town next day. Thesame despatch states that three hundred of Col. Lane’s men have entered Topeka. This is confirmed by a despatch via Chicago.

A fire broke out at Chicago on the evening of the 12th inst., which destroyed property to the amount of from $150,- 000 to $250,060.
