I am Of my Pointe Minister. I hale followed you to Bayonne. You have brought affairs to such a state, that henceforth every thing must depend upon the arrangements and protection of this Great Prince. To have recourse to insurrection.s of the people, to plant I re d uce yourself, my kingdom , my sub j ects, an..l my family, to the t h e standard of faction , would be the ruin of Spain, add would greatest wretchedness. I hale opened my Wb ole heart to the Emperor. He is acquainted with all the insult. have received, and the usurpation imposed upon me. He has deCleeed tome that be will never acknowledge you as King, and that the en m emy of his father can excite no confidence in the breast of a He has besides shewn Me letters, which contain proofs .of Your aversion from France. stranger. Under these circumstances It is evidently my right, and 011 11 more evidently my duty, to spare the blood of my. subjects, a. l d . net at the end of my days to adopt a course wbich would th expos Spain to fine. and sword, and re duce the country to e most wretched condition. Assuredly you ought, faithful to your duty, and to the feelings of nature, to have rejected the traitorous coun d - sels given you. Had y ou constantly appeared by my side, reay for my defence, and had waited till the usual course of nature had raised you to the Throne, then the political interests of Spain might have been brought to coincide with the interests of all. Doubtless for these six months circumstances have been very cri tical; but such as they were I should not have feared to meet them, supported by the good conduct of my subjects, and even my own feeble efforts; but, above all, with the moral power which I should have posse.sed in proposing to my ally an arrange ment calculated to reconcile the interests of my subjects and my family. In depriving me of my crown, you have broken your own in pieces ; you have stripp ed it of all that was illustrious, of all that rendered it sacred in the eyes of men. But your tonduct towards me, and your intercepted letters, have erected a brazen wall between you and the throne of Spain. lam a King in the right of my ancestors. My abdication was a consequence of compulsion. I have, therefore, nothing to- receive from you. I can consent to no meeting--I will consent to r.Othing that may occasion a civil war or insurrections. Every thing ought to be done for the people, but nothing by them, and to forget this principle is to make ourselves guilty of all the consequences which its neglect occasions. I have, through my whole life, sacrificed myself for my people, and at the years at which I am arrived I shall never do any act repugnant to their religion, their tranquilli ty, and'their prosperity. But all my sacrifices will be forgotten whenever I am informed that the religion of Spain, the inviolabi lity of my provinces, and their privileges and independence are se cured; I shall then lie down in my grave forgiving you all the sorrow which in my latter years you have occasioned me.

No. I,.rridarzn OF HIS MAJESTY THE EMPEROR TO THE • PRINCE OF ASTCRIAS. Mr Bacasza!-.4 have received the letter of your Royal Highness t in the papers which you have received from the King, your Royal Highness's father, you must have found a proof of the interest Which I have always felt for you. You will permit me, under the present circumstances, to speak to you with truth, and I wished, by my journey to Madrid, to draw over my illus trious friend to some necessary ameliorations of his States, and also to give a certain satisfaction to the public feelings. 'The re moval of the Prince of the Peace appeared to me to be necessary for the prosperity of his Majesty and that of his subjects. '1 ha affairs of the North had retarded my journey. The events at Aranjuez took place. I pass no decision on what had previously fallen out, nor upon the conduct of the Prince of the Peace; but I knew well that it is dangerous for Kings to accustom their people to shed blood, of to seek to redress themselves. I pray Goo, that I your Royal Highness may never feel this by your own experience. It is not the interest of Spain to injure a Prince who has married a Princess of the Blood Royal, and who for a long time directed the affairs of the Kingdom. He no longer has any friends: your Royal Highness will possess them no longer than while you shall be fortunate. The people willingly revenge themselves for that homage which they pay us. How also can the process be drawn tip against the Prince of the Peace, without involving in it the 1 Queen and the King your Father ? This process would give nourishment to hatred and factious passions, the issue of whirls would be fatal to your Crown. YOUR ROYAL HIGHNESS HAS ND OTHER RIGHT THERETO THAN THAT WHICH YOU DERIVE FROM YOUR MOTHER. If this process degrade her, your Royal Highness destroys your own right. He who has lent an ear to weak and disloyal counsels, has no right to pass sentence on the Prince of the Peace, His misdeeds, if he can be reproached with them, go to destroy the rights of the Crown. I have frequently expressed a desire, that the Prince of the Peace should be re moved from affairs; the friendship of King Charles has often induced me to remain silent, and to turn away my eyes from the weakness of his conduct. Unhappy mortals that we were! Weak ness and error, these are our motto, ; but all may be arranged ; namely, that the Prince of the Peace should be banished from Spain, and I should invite him to a place of retirement in France. As to the abdication of King Charles the Fourth, that has taken place at a moment when my troops were traversing Spain ; and in the eyes of Europe, and of posterity, I should seem to have sent so many troops solely for the purpose of pushing from his throne n.y ally, and friend. As a neighbour Sovereign, it is fit 1 that I should know this abdication, before I acknowleged it. I say it to your Royal Highness, to the Spania-ds, and to the whole world, if the abdication of King Charles has proceeded from his own will, if he was not driven to it by the insurrection and uproar at Aranjuez, I make no scruple to accede to it, and to ac knowledge your Royal Highness as King of Spain. The circum• spection which I have observed for this month past, must be test:. curity to you for the support which you shall find in me, should ever party differences disturb you, in your turn, upon the throne. " When King Charles made us acquainted with the events of last October, I was very much affected by them : and I think that by my efforts the affair of the Escurial received a happy issue. Your Royal Highness was much to blame—l have no need of any other proof of this, than the letter which you wrote to use, and which I shall always desire to consider as not having come to me. Your Royal Highness must distrust all popular commotions and insurrections--A FEW OF MY SOLDIERS MAY BE MURDERIIO, BVT THE SUBJUGATION OF SPAIN SHALL BL THE CONSEQUENCE OF IT. I see with pain that some persons at Madrid have disseminated certain letters of the Captain-General of Catalonia, and have done every thing to excite disturbances among the people. Your Royal Highness perfectly comprehends my meaning. it perceive that I have touched slightly upon many points, which it would not be proper to enlarge upon. You may be assured that I will conduct myself in every thing towards you, in the same way as to your Royal Father. You may rely upon my desire to arrange every thing, and of finding an opportunity of giving you proof of my perfect regard and esteem. Herewith accept, firc. I! PARIS, MAY IL The Moniteur of yesterday contains the following *nicks : .... - BAYONNE) MAY 6.—The following particularsire contained in a letter from Madrid, dated May 2, seven in the evening : " The people of Madrid, since the events of Aran jue7, have been constantly in a state of ferment. Their pride and presumption had arrived at the highest pitch of which it is possible to form any con ception. The victory which they had obtained over their King, the trophies with which they were elated, having snatched from the two hundred carabineers who formed the life-guard of the Prince of the Peace, inspired hopes that every thing must give way to their fantasies and licentiousness. Every day were inju ries done to the French.; sometimes the guilty were punished in an examplary manner ; but the French always discovered the ceolness and tranquillity of the strong, towards the commotions of the multitude. It is true, that the good sense of the great body of the respectable inhabitants of Madrid confirmed this dis position on 'the part of the French. " Within these two days, the assemblages of the people were more numerous, and appeared to have some determinate object in view. Reports and pro clamations in manuscript were dispersed over the country ; cool spectators of those things, as well Spa niards as French, saw a crisis approaching, and saw it with pleasure ; for without some severe lesson, it was impossible to bring back the misguided multi tude to reason. " The Queen of Etruria, and the Infanta Don Free cisco, indignant at the affronts to which they were daily exposed, asked and obtained permission to set out for Bayonne. The Grand Duke of Berg sent one of his Aides-de-Camp with his compliments and assurances that they should sustain no injury ; having reached the court of the Palace, the Aid-de-Camp was surrounded by the assembled mob, but he defen ded himself long, and at last was on the point of sinking, when ten grenadiers of the guard advanced No. $ .
