Thanks to lithography, we shall soon have a come pieta collection of all the personages, whether at Madrid, at Perpignan, or at Toulouse, whose name hone trumpets forth.

Romero Alpuente, is now esidakei fbr sale at most of the print-ohopa. He is in slN tary attire, in the act of mounting guard: Tide old man is aged 70, and still appears full of energy. It is afflimed that the likeness is perfect. We have received, by an extrabrdinary courier, Intelligence from Madrid of the 29th of December. • The Ministry and the Council of State are at issue respec,iug the Treaty of Alliance with Portugal— the latter have declared strongly against the alli ance. Such a contest is remarkable, and cannot fail to be attended with serious consequences. (EXTRACT Or • LETTER.) MADIUD, DAC. ti9.—A visit paid by M. A'Court the English Minister Plenipotentiary to bl. San Mi. guel, has given rise to numerous conjectures; but the true motive has not transpired. It is said that on this occasion, he gave some explanation respect ing the English expedition off Cuba. The proceedings of the t urtes are of se mania interest. (From the Quotidienne.) There are no examples in history that war has ever been avoided by postponing it, and there are a thousand, on the contrary, in which it had bean pro secuted with SUCCESS, by not deferring it. All wars which justice and honour command art alwsyi t quully indispensable on the grounds of pro. j denee and reason. France has so long shewn us the abuse of force, elm she not now show the employment of it? • There era inconveniences to sustain in making' s war, but there are dangers in not making it. It al the characteristic of want of foresight *nil et weak.; ness, to be more impressed with present inconve. niences than impending dangers. If France now hesitate to make war against an oppressive Government, with the almost unanimous support of the oppress td nation, which every where rising to brelk her chains, I ask with sincerity against what can she ever make it? Will war be declared to the Cortes? Useless ques tion. Will war be made against the Cortes? This is what must be inquired. If the revolution of Spain triumph, it will remind us of what we seem to have forgotten. It is, that we have declared war against it, as it is declared against a powerful enemy, every time that it is ,hewn; and if the revolution be conquered, it will be disastrous to France not to have contributed to its overthrow. In this time of seduction, the French soldier oubbt only t. be encuciped iii the enemy's country. Nothing Is more than is bee In far. dalel ' risons an army which' elolPealed le learek Willa the enemy Oh ! what wise that which would im pound a revolution. ' a great nation intd barbarity, to prestos' in Europe. Tacitus relates that reVolu having broken out amongst the Zeit King, an ally ',Elbe Romans, was trout the throne, sea his Stat e su ' to an Om Merin of civil istueen war; the Emperor Claudius was sarimitly entreated Iss pulse to the relief ad& pox* and their King; lark contented hien& with get?sten praising the King of the SWINi eg emflum in his el , if Why drove him out of* own. and he wrote at the woe time to the Gerstner of Peanonis, reoms.

'ems, they should davits follow up the war within the limits of the Empire. This policy eventually ' succeeded very ill, andappeared contemptible to the imam; wad hence, it cannot be that of France. In the peewee of Revolution there are no happy Wines. • ' The French soldier Is borii for attack, and it ii NM than itnprudenoe io let hiss continue bungles wader the artillery of Liberalism. \ To dissolve the Army of Observation would be a defeat ; to maintain it, an imprudence; to indulge In the idea that war may be avoided, a chimera; to await it, a dishonour; to expect that revolution will refiwm itself, an illusion..-what resource remains?

And has France forgotten that a captive King has already one foot upon the Jicatfuld? What was the cause that Louis XVI. lost his head ; was it an invasion ?—No, it Was a retreat • * • *. .

Last evening there was a grand reception at the residence of the _Duke 'of Orleans. His Serene Highness received the Ambassadors and Ministers Plenipotentiary of the Foreign Powers, M. the Archbishop of Paris, . and numerous persons of dis tinction. The suit instituted by the Spanish Ambeesedor against M. M. Ouvrard and Roggensent de Loves burg, will positively not come on until Tuesday next, the 14th inst. when it will be tried before the sixth Chamber Correctioaelle. M. Mane pleads for M the Duke de San Lorenzo • MM. Bonnet and 6.l'lC:tiers Menap are the Counsel for the ac. cured. 'l'he Notes of Russia, Austria, and Prussia will ' be published forthwith. The public mind of Paris is exclusively occupied respecting the answer of' the Cortes. and the deter mination which the French Government will come to. This determination cannot be more mat ter of doubt than the reply of the Spaniards. The Ministers of the Revolution have their language as direct as the Ministers of Legitimacy. They are now in the presence of each other. The loan for the Regency of Spain daily acquires confidence. It is probable that the whole amount will be shortly made up. Spanish bowls continue declining. It is affirmed that a French General, on present- ing a Spanish General to a seat personage, said— " I here present the standstill with which the French army should enter Spain." It is said that three Colonels of the army have been allowed to retire upon half-pay. The dismissal of several Cbloneis is spoken of.

The torments which he endures are more easily imagined than descriked. They who surround him, and exercise his authority continually threaten to abandon him ; and are con stantly representing the danger yas which he exposes himself, if he dues not frankly and noreservediy its- trench himself in the revolution.
