Madrid, April 2.  On the 31st past, between 11 and 12 at
night, large detachments of troops were sent to each of the
six different houses of Jesuits in this city; and the doors
being opened, the bells were first secured, and a sentinel
was posted at every cell, the occupier of which being
obliged to rise, they were assembled, and the King of
Spain's commands [to leave Spain] were signified to them. .
