This afternoon w•e have the Paris Papers of Monday. The Journal des Debuts has an Article from Vienna, dated August 19, to the following effect:— " Since the events in France have been known, there is great activity in the ministry of foreign affairs. A Council of Ministers was held yesterday. We learn that the Go vernment of Mayence will be reinforced, and that twenty five thousand Austrians have received orders to proceed. to Italy. Notwithstanding this, we do not believe that war will take place there, if no new division amongst the French nation occurs ; and that if the present Go vernment acts with moderation, nothing will be opposed to the acknowledgment of the Government of France ; and that the French Ambassador who has suspended his functions will be reinstated again." , • „.- „5:;,..... r, ff . . --- 4.,:44" . .t... 51 —, .)- pc - v- , 47:79 t , 'c , , i:t 'IS OZW: Vt iff7(4 . o (N 5 SF .

At noon this day it was rumoured in the City, that the Dutch steamer had arrived, and brought accounts of serious disturbances at Antwerp. It was added that several young men had been killed ; and that troops were pouring into the Netherlands from all quarters. On this eventful intelli gence, we intantly made the most minute enquiry ; and have new before us a letter from Antwerp of Monday last, which is to the following effect : " The Rotterdam steam-packet is now passing, and I have just time to tell you that since mine of last night, great disturbances have broke out here, and several lives have ken lost. A number of young men assembled last night, crying " Vive hi Revolution ! Vire Mr. POTTER ! bas les Ministres !" The Prince of ORANG E showed himself on the balcony ; but nothing could pacify them. The result was, that the soldiers , were called out, and several lives were lost. The Bourgeoise, or mer chants, do all in their power to preserve peace; and are going to form themselves into a guard for the pro tection of property. The KING has left for the Palace at Lacken, and appears determined to encounter every ob stacle. This obulition of popular feeling must not be con sidered as the spirit of the people. I hope by next post to inform you that they are more pacified; but I am sorry to say revolutionary feelings spread like wild-fire amongst the young men here. The English are leaving as quick as possible." As far as we can judge of the improbability of the revolu . tionary commotions in Brussels terminating seriously, from the causes which have produced it being inadequate, from its not having apparent encouragement in France, and from its period having been premature, we should be inclined to credit the opinions which predominate in continental com mercial circles, that tranquillity will soon be restored. In telligence, however, reached us this forenoon, of the revolu tionary spirit having extended to Antwerp; and if this be true, we shall not readily believe that the other great and po pulous towns in Belgium will be exempt: for we consider, ►hat if any should remain exempt from that spirit, Antwerp was the most likely to have been so. We believe that few are enabled to form a very accurate judgment, how far the policy pursued by the Dutch Go vernment, towards its Catholic Provinces, has been detri mental, or beneficial, when put into competition with that pursued towards them formerly by the French Govern ment. As far as can be judged by the mere public ! acts of theapresent King of Hou.s Nu, we should say that he his displayed an anxiety to propitiate all portions of 'his, in some degree, heterogeneous kingdom. We have ourselves observed facts, which e..en do not appear in public papers ; and which convince us, that much has been done by the Dutch Government to study the interest of the manufacturers of Brabant ; even when it has been at the sacrifice of the interests of the Dutch traders.— We have seen the Dutch Government sacrifice, not only the interest of the Dutch trader, but the vital irate;•ests of one of the finest islands which ever formed a colony to any. State, to the support of the nascent manu facturers of Belgium. We allude to the Dutch Colonial policy as regards the valuable island of Java. Not only there, have we seen British manufactures excluded by heavy prohibitory imposts, but what has been a grosser error in management, and, in fact, one of the most criminal acts of mis-government, which perhaps modern times can dis play, we have seen and we speak now from ac tual knowledge—the humble manufactures of the indus trious, simple natives, cautiously crushed by fiscal ordinances, and custom-house regulations of the most extraordinary character.—Will it be believed, in modern times, that any European Government, in order to force the population of an island to purchase printed cottons of their own fabrication, at a higher price than they could be supplied by rival traders,or than the natives could supply themselves with, by their own ingenuity and industry—should first plan to exclude the fo reign article by prohibitory duties, and then set to work to repress the native industry. Such, Reader, we can assure you, has been the policy of Holland, as exhibited in Java --an island which appears doomed, one would suppose, to be for ever a stage for the exhibition of pedlar fraud and impolicy. The native Javanese, manufacture a kind of figured coloured cotton, which requires the use of wax, as the figures are not printed, but dyed. The British printed cottons had, in the way of fair trade, interfered with this in genious, but operose manufacture. When ; however, the prohibitory duties drove the British, for a time, from the market, the Netherland manufactures came into competition with the native, which they could not undersel. To pre vent this rivalry, the enlightened policy of the Hague or Batavia—which had the honour of it we do not know—pro hibited the importation of bees' wax ! Was not this a noble specimen of political economy—ye readers of RICARDO and MILLS ? This policy, like all founded on such narrow-minded prin plea, failed; for the contrivance of man stimulated by his in terests, is not easily frustrated. The result has been that the whole line of Javanese coast is a scene of smuggling, which no extension of preventative force in such asituation can prevent ; and the island is again pretty well supplied with the industry of Manchester and Glasgow. We are, however, carrying our illustration to too great a length, for this part of our Paper. We must conclude there fore, by remarking, that while what we have stated displays an anxiety to study the interests of the Belgian manufacturers, it shows that in that instance the exertion has been injudi ciously made, and unsuccessful. On the first downfal of NAPOLEON, who made the manufactures we are alluding to, we witnessed in that country, that hip Go vernment was highly popular ; and we imagine the encou ragement he gave to the manufacturers at that time, and their rapid success under the policy he was then pursuing, may still be favourably remembered —and probably the connection with France be on the whole preferred. We have the Hamburgh Reporter of Friday now before us. It does not contain a line of news on the subject of the disturbances in the Netherlands. We can afford room only for the following commercical notices : BORSEN-HALLE, FRIDAY, HALF-PAST 4 O'CLOCK. Supplies of Wheat from the interior continue to arrive. The greater part has been bought for exportation, and the remainder will, probably, be likewise disposed of, as there appear to be still several foreign orders unexecuted. Our own consumers have been buying, though only sparingly. The high prices of the better qualities has induced the holders of inferior parcels to raise their demands, but hitherto with little success. RYE has been rising considerably, and a further advance is confidently looked forward to. The trifling supplies re ceived within the last few days were eagerly taken, and several parcels were bought from the warehouses. For the consumption of Hamburg and its vicinity, considerable pur chases were also made. BARLEY continues in demand, for exportation as well as for home consumption ; Oats, on the other hand, are less in favour than they were. From the 14th to the 20th inst. both days included, 149 cargoes of corn passed through the Sound ; of these, 88 were bound for British, 39 for Dutch, and 17 for Swedish and Norwegian ports ; 2 were bound for Emden, 1 fur Bre men, 1 for Hamburg, and 1 for a French port. Great fluctuations have again taken place in funds, this week. A scarcity of stock is felt for the approaching liqui dation, the consequence of which is, that purchases for the end of September may be made on better terms than for cash. The heavy differences to be settled at the end of the present month, excite some degree of apprehensions as to the result. Prices from Berlin come lower. Discount 5 per Cent. CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCE. We understand from the best authority that all the great powers of Europe have come to a resolution to acknowledge the new King of France, and every thing is going on well in Paris. Consols which left off yesterday at 901 for the Account, opened at 904 I, and were done at 90i 2, at present they are 901 I, with little doing. Buenos Ayres Papers to the 6th June, have been re ceived at the N. S. A. Coffee-house, although not of so late a date as last received ; we extract the following :—From the Robert Packet, 6th June. "We have again to notice the paucity of political events, and perhaps *his state of things may not be without its advantages. From the in terior provinces of the Republic there is no news. The Go vernor of this province is still in the country, on a tour of in-' spection ; the last accounts left him at Salto. A reference to our price current will show that the price of specie is ra ther on the decline, produced by, no doubt, the scarcity of money. Senor Rajas has been appointed Deputy for the Government of Buenos Ayres, to act in conjunction with the three named by the provinces of Santa Fe, Entrerios, and Circentis, to celebrate a definitive treaty of friendship be tween the four provinces." CITY, HALF-PAST ONE. A current report prevailed in Change, that the French rents came 70-50 ; since which we have received an ex press from Paris, and we may quote them at 73. When the Rotterdam steam-boat left, the King of the Ne therlands steam-vessel was engaged by the Dutch Govern ment to convey troops to Antwerp. We do not hear that the report of disturbances at Ant werp is confirmed. We understand that the East India Company has given notice of reducing their Bonds from 3 to 21. 10s. per Cent. Consols have reached, in the course of the morning, 901, buyers ; but on the arrival of the Dutch steamer, when unfavourable accounts were spread, they fell to 901 ; at present they are 901 to 1 for the account, and 90 for money. In the Foreign Market little or nothing doing. COURT INTELLIGENCE. THE ROYAL FAMILY. BRIGHTON (TUESDAY.) —Their gracious Majesties King VrillLan and Queer. Adelaide arrived here about six o'clock yesterday evening, amidst the joyous cheer and acclamations of nearly 60,000 of their dutiful and loyal subjects. The town was at an early hour crowded to excess ; the people flocked in from all directions ; and for several hours before their Majesties' arrival, had stationed themselves in dense masses, from the Pavilion to Patcham, a distance of four miles. Every window, balcony, and even the house-tops, were filled. The fineness of the day added considerably to the grandeur of the spectacle. The utmost precaution was observed to prevent the crowd from incon veniencing the progress of their Majesties, notwithstanding which the pressure became very great at various points, and would have offered considerable obstruction but for the exertions of the Gentle. men of the Committee, who were mounted, and accompanied their Majesties from Patcham to the Pavilion. Their Majesties looked exceedingly well, and throughout betrayed the pleasing emotions which pervaded their hearts at the enthusiastic devotion manifested by th ei grateful subjects on the occasion. It was evident also that their Majesties were fearful any accident should occur, and more than i once inquired of the gentlemen who rode next the carriage (Captain Maher) if any person was hurt. The assurance that no accident had I occurred afforded their Majesties the utmost gratification. In the evening the town was illuminated in the most splendid and brilliant style. The variety of transparencies, devices, crowns, stars, in gas and variegated lamps, exceeds description. In fact, it would be in. vidious to particularise individual instances where the thing was so general. Splendid fire-works were let off on the Steine, and from the Eclipse steam-packet, which was also brilliantly illuminated The triumphal arch was splendid beyond description; upwards of 35 flags were appended to it, and at the summit waved the standard of England, supported by 70 sailors in full dress. At night it was brilliantly illuminated. The Princess Elizabeth, of Hesse Horn. berg, the Princess Augusta, and Prince George of Cumberland, arrived yesterday. Their Majesties received the addresses from the town, which we published yesterday, at two o'clock this day. They:received the deputation most graciously. Both the King and Queen read their answers. A town Meeting is called for to-morrow, to receive the an. avers of their gracious Majesties. Most of the Nobility, and a great number of Gentry, left their names at the Pavilion this day ; amongst them the Earl and Countess of Chichester, Lord John Townsend, &c. The Duke and Duchess of Cumberland gave a grand din nor at their residence at Kew, yesterday, to the Duke of Cambridge. There was a select party of the Nobility and Gentry to meet his Royal Highness. The Duke of Cambridge paid visits to the Duke of Sussex and the Princess Sophia, yesterday, at their residence in the King's Palace, Kensington. Lord Hill, the Commander of the Forces, and Sir Thomas Hislop, visited the Duke of Cambridge yesterday, at Cam bridge House, Piccadilly. The Ambassador from the. Netherlands had a conference with the Earl of Aberdeen on Saturday, at the Office of the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs; His Excellency had also an interview yesterday with the Earl of Aberdeen. The Count de Vitzhum (on a special mission from the King of Saxony) had an interview with the Earl of Aber deen, at the Foreign Office, on Monday. The Russian Minister and the French Charge d'Affaires transacted business with the Earl of Aberdeen yesterday, at the Foreign Office. DOVER, AUG. 30.—General Baudrand embarked in the packet this morning, on his return to Paris. We continue to receive reports of disturbances in Flanders. At Brussels, Ghent, and Bruges, riotous excesses had been committed. Several travellers who were journeying thither have returned. Two of the Government messengers went from hence in an open boat for Calais this morning, charged with despatches. A requisition for a Special Court of Common Council, to congratulate the French nation on their great constitutional triumph, is now in progress. Nearly 70 members have al ready signed the requisition, and as fast as the absent mem bers reach town fresh names will be added. The late events in Paris have sent us over, we are sorry to understand, a numerous importation of the gambling va gabonds of the Paleis Royal, who are seeking to set up their nefarious practices at some of the hells in the neighbourhood of St. James's-street.—Herald. The East India Company's ship Farquharson arrived off Margate the 30th August. She loft China the 12th March, and St. Helena the Bth of July. The Scaleby Castle ar rived in the Downs the same day. She left China the 3d of April, and St. Helena the Bth of July. Though marine insurance originated with the Dutch, yet, notwithstanding their sagacity and desire to cultivate indus trious habits, they rigidly prohibited, in its outset, insurance upon lives, which it was left to this country to originate and carry on to the extent in which it now exists. The whole of the records now occupying the dangerous wooden erection in Westminster Hall are about to be re moved to the building lately the King's Mews at Charing cross, preparatory to the Coronation of their Majesties, which is expected to take place in the spring. ANOTHER COINCIDENCE.—It is a remarkable fact that Charles X. and the Dey of Algiers were both, on the 19th of this month, on the point of landing on a foreign shore. INVERNESS, AUG. 27.—The Election of a Member of Parliament for this County came on to-day. There were two candidates in the field—the Right Hon. Charles Grant, the former Member; and Mr. M'Leod, of M'Leod, who rested his pretensions chiefly, if not solely, on the support of Government, and whose recent address to the freeholders formed the subject of discussion in the London Newspapers. Up to the day of election the confidence of M' Leod and his party was unlimited and unabated; but after the meet ing of freeholders was constituted, and motions made on both sides for the appointment of Chairman and Clerk, it appeared that Mr. Grant had so decided a majority, that Mr. McLeod declared, that in consequence of the first aspect of the Meeting, which rendered all chance of success on his part hopeless, he felt himself constrained to abandon the contest. We shall only add, that Mr. Grant's ascendancy in the county of Inverness continues triumphant, and that the great interest of the day was increased by a speech from Mr. Grant, in reply to certain animadversions of his oppo nent, in which he explained and defended his public conduct in Parliament, in a strain distinguished alike by warmth of feeling and brilliant eloquence. He was enthusiastically cheered in the course of it, and his manly and forcible ap peal carried conviction to the hearts of all who heard it. TUE NEW POLICE.—We understand that it is in agita tion to call a public meeting, in order to check the unconsti tutional system of the New Police, to adopt the best means for rendering them servants of the public, and not a ques tionable force in the hands of Government. Their suiveil lance is, at all times, disgusting, and their conduct has been, in many instances, flagrant. It will he proposed that all appointments be made parochial—(the superintendents and inspectors to be householders in their respective parishes). —that three cr more respectable parishioners, according to the population, be chosen as delegates, to form one general committee, which shall elect from their number three or five commissioners to superintend the whole system, instead of two persons, above all a military man, nominated by the Home Department. If Government really and honourably intend the police system for the benefit, and not the slavery of the Londoners, we cannot foresee any objection on their part to a measure so rational, so just, and so watchful, over British freedom.—Herald. SPIRIT OF THE JOURNALS. CHROKICLE.—The most ominous defeat which the Duke of lington has yet experienced is that of which an account reached us by the post of yesterday. Mr. Charles Grant has been returned for the County of Inverness, notwithstanding the canvassing letters of Mr. 31‘Leod, his rival, were franked at the Home Office, to give the Free. holders the assurance of the high consideration in which he was held by Ministers, and notwithstanding the interest used w i t h the Lord. Lieu. trestle of the County, and other friends of Mt. Grant, to detach them from his cause, which have been in part successful. The trial of strength took place on the vote for the Chairman, when, without co unt . ing disputed votes, Mr. Macpherson Grant, of Bell adrum, was ap. pointed, in preference to Colonel Grant, of Chant (the Lord-Lieutenant) by a majority of 34 to 26. Those who know anything of Scotch County Elections, must know that in keenness of scent the Scotch freeholders are not surpassed by any men in existence. Yet lieu we see Ministers exerting themselves, as if the matter were one of life and death, to keep out Mr. C. Grant, and yet, with a set of men c keenly alive to the blessings of the Treasury, they have failed. How is this? Where one or two great proprietors can command a majo. rity of votes, there are instances of Ministers having been defeated: but in an independent Scotch county there is no former instance I t corruption not carrying the day. In fact a Scotch freeholder would in general consider it as an insult, implying some defect in his under. standing, to charge him with voting against the Administration for the time being. It is one of those acts of imprudence in Scotland which would place a man In danger of that sort of ordeal to which Mr. An. derton was lately subjected. Those who know the prudence and worldly wisdom of the Scotch freeholders in independent counties, will arthe at any conclusion rather than that the Scotch are on a wrong scent . They must have strong suspicions of the tenure of a Nlinistcr, betioe they turn their backs on him. Prudent men will know what to think of tide augury. Posy—lf the people of France were not free previously to the publi. cation of the Ordinances of the 25th July, are they free now ? The Liberals—without doubt assisted by that keenness of perception which characterises their fraternity—profess to see every reason for satisfaction in the late occurrences, and tell the world that France is now indeed a great nation, and that her people are in the full enjoyment of unrestrietul liberty. A mighty change has undoubtedly been effected in the posi. tion of France, but it appears to us that our neighbours h a v e on l y ca . changed the ild and wholesome restraint of a monarchy for the arbi. trary rule of an oligarchy. It is true the French Deputies have talked much about the rights of the people, but have they shown any respect for those rights ? Have they proved themselves anxious to conciliate public opinion, or have they evinced any inclination to fulfil the wishes of their fellow. countrymen ? No. The Revolutionary Deputies of France have most contemptuously disregarded the desires of their fellow.countrymen—they have endeavoured to stifle the expression of public opinion by hurrying over the business of the Revolution—they have acted for tocroselvcs, and not for the nation ; and, in a word, they have all along adopted such a line of policy as would best ensure a continuance of their own power, whilst it diminished the influence of the people. If a few Deputies, assembled in an illegal manner, have conducted the whole of this new Revolution (always excepting the dangerous portion of it,) how can it be said that the thirty million inhabitants of France have profited by it? Or how can they be acid to be free, when it is evident that they are the mere playthings of a handful of conspirators ? We repeat, therefore, that the French has. gained nothing by their rebellion ; and that, hay. ing escaped from the mild restraint of a monarchy, they have surrcn. dered themselves to the arbitrary rule of an oligarchy. Hzum.D.--There is, evideTh7t7, l 7 — reat alarm excited by the reccr.t revolution in France among the despotic Governments of the Continent. They have cause for it. They have governed more by terror than by affection. They have relied more upon military force than on motal in. nuence. They have resisted improvement, and arc conscious of violated the promises which they made to their subjects when they re. quired and obtained the energetic assistance of their people to overthrow the gigantic empire of Napoleon. The King of Prussia has been amen.: the foremost to upbraid the 111-fated Charles X. with the violation of his oath, although he thereby passes a sentence of severe condemnation on himself. 11 hen the tide of conquest turned against the modern Hanni. hal, after the disastrous Russian campaign, and the Kings who had been his vassals confederated against their master in regal rebellion. he induced his people to devote themselves enthusiastically to tit,. liberation of the Crown and country from foreign thraldom, by pledging his Royal word to give them a constitutional system of Government. But he and his brethren now found themselves so secure by the destruction of Napoleon's power, that it was not thought necessary to fulfil promises in favour of their sub. jccts which were given under circumstances that had ceased to exist. Their liberality was the emanation of terror, and vanished with the danger that had produced it. A greater power than that of Napoleon is now abroad ; and Kings, y ho considered themselves exempt from moral and religious obligationi, will find it their interest to adopt a sounder line of policy tt aann that which is founded tn. resistance to en. lightened opinion and on the violation of good faith. It is likely the King of Prussia will now recollect that the people performed their pan of the contract for which the establishment of a constitutional system was to be the consideration ; unless he and his Ministers should be actuated by that " fatal courage" which AL de Martignac described as the inspiring principle of the last subversive measures of Charles X. The alarm of Austria is also very great. Her Italian dependencies are in a most precarious condition, and she knows it. She already pours reinforcements into the Alilanese and the Venetian territories—she says such steps are necessary to preserve peace and good order. She means they are requisite to uphold her iron despotism —that despotism which crushes mind wherever its power is felt— that despotism which has reduced the fair and fertile provinces of Italy to a suite of the most deplorable wretchedness, and withers the energies of man on that soil which had been rendered glorious by Roman intel. lect and virtue It is not, however, military but moral reinforcements that her tottering dominion requires. Amelioration of government, and improvements in political instttutions, might prolong an authority which 'an obstinate perseverance in the logic of force will lead rapidly to its fall. Dominion which is not founded on justice has at all times but a frail foundation. The age of military governments is passing away. Fifteen yeses had the policy of Metternich been at work in the devising of various contrivances to extinguish mind, suppress opinion, and per. petuate the slavery and degradation of Continental Europe. For this purpose was that regal conspiracy against constitutional liberty, called the " Holy Alliance," founded. How short a time has sufficed to make that vain and presumptuous confederacy feel its own feebleness, and tremble for its very existence ! They who advise despotic Kings to make reasonable concessions to their people, and to identify their own power with the public improvement, are their true friends ;—they advise them to adopt reform, in order to prevent, sooner or later, the shock of revolution. If rejecting such salutary counsel, Prussia should interfere to put down the spirit of revolt in the Belgic provinces, and Austria should continue to try the endurance of her Italian subjects by increasing the severity of her military Goren.. ment, the example of the fate of Charles X. will have been lust upon both these Powers, and history will have to record, for the instruc tion of after-times, the melancholy consequences of their intlatiation. lien Ferdinand of Spain, it is said, seems to be aware that lie cannot retain his throne without restoring to his subjects their ancient So far has Charles X. been a benefactor to mankind ! Tnas.—Tlic Paris payerstWahed an account of th.. success of General Baudran's mission, and the announcement of that favoura ble result, which was so anxiously desired, has diffused general satisfac tion throughout Paris. The Cohrier Francais pretends to know what passed in our Cabinet on this important question. It is stated that some slight objections raised to the recognition of Louis Philip by the Duke of Wellington being removed by the personal wish of his Majesty. and by the observations of Sir R. Peel, the decision of the Council was unanimous. it is further stated, that the envoys of Charles X. exerted themselves to retard the recognition. The exiled Court was tkeirous to obtain some delay, in the hope that the other Powers of Europe would in the meantime doclare themselves in its favour. We hare no difficulty in pronouncing the whole of this story to be a gross and unfounded tabri. cation. There was not a moment's hesitation in our Cabinet resprctir.g the recognition. The conimission appointed by the Chamber of Depu ties to examine the late Ministers proceeded, it appears, to Vincennes on Sunday, to commence that duty. When our neighbours ascistair from this inquiry, and also from the perusal of the official documents found In the portfolios of the late ministers, that the Duke of Welling:of was never privy to any of the proceedings of Polignac, and was, on:4' ' generally consulted, the strenuous opponent of arbitrary measures, tK bonds of friendship between England and France will, we have no daub:. become closer and firmer. No step is omitted by England which can indicate good will to Franco. SVe believe that it is not intended, at least at present, to send a new ambassador to Paris ; but new credential , ' were forwarded on Friday last to Lord Stuart de Rotitsay, which wil; put hint at once into the regular relations of friendly communication Fish the new tioverr.ment of France. TIMES.—We once did put ihejueiition to a noble Spaniard. an:r hearing that some of his countrymen had been blamed for not accepdng certain facilities offered to them, with a view to their return to the Peninsula. We mated hint directly, t' Why do you not go yourseli't • His answer was as follows Because I know how faithless art: worthless is the word of Ferdinand : should I go home to any os country to-morrow, and repair to 3ladrid, there is no question that. se far front treating me uncivilly. he would receive me with compliments and milts. I might p ass two days agreeably—perhaps a wee k ; what next ? Why, in the dead of the night I should be seized, by Order t' t the Minister of Justice= dragged away to a dungeon; accused by some suborned witnesses of crimes which I had never dreamed of, and hanged or shot without farther ceremony" This, then, is the feeling order which Spaniards, who had by dreadful evidence been taught to distill. guish between the promises and deeds of a traitor, shrunk trom the kindrirse proposed to them by honest, but not v e ry considerate media tors, interceding with Ferdinand to forgive hi s exiled subjects. And what was the charge against these virtuous and glorious men? The monstrous one. that they had resisted a foreign. invader, who came to scourge and reduce their country to bondage. Yet It is still recent. :mended by certain, and even amiable and respectable person I, that now. when the hour of retribution is at hand, Spain should forfeit all the he I e ? ,1 w .. k~ I
