LATEST INTELLIGENCE.

THIS DAY, Four o'Clock.
MOST IMPORTANT FROM

PARIS.

. - . . . . .
MADRID, FEB. 17.
The Paris correspondent of the Espanol is told by people
about the Infanta that Queen Isabel is going to meet her
sister at Pau in April, and that the Duchess will await the
issue of her confinement in that city. I cannot say whether
the former part of this notice deserves any credit, but it
seems highly improbable and inconsistent with the Queen's
preoossesaion *vilest the French. As to the Infanta's re-
sidence in Pau, it seems that a mansion has been rigging up
there for some time past with that destination. But I
have heard that it is considered desirable by the " persons
of the situation"—a convenient phrase applied here te minis-
ters and influential people—that the future Infant of Spain
should be born on this side of the Pyrenees. It
seems to be thought by wi 11-informed persons that we may
Look out for the Infanta and her Lob ind toward+ the cud nl
April. The diplomatic objections of England can be at
any moment disarmed by the Spsni-h government dimoun-
tenaneing on arbitrary r.,gitac in Portugal. Those objec-
tions far the rest have never had mni weight; and the de-
lay of the Montpensieni to present themselves at Madrid
must be rather attributed to the irritated state of the pro-
geesistas, and the violent anti-French tone of that portico
of the press. >larvara wishes, it FeeLor, to muzzle the
press with the French laws of September, to anticipate the
alarm which the Infanta would naturally feel lest her
arrival should be a signal for the discharge of a series of
resell aricles galling her hu-b sod with offensive retie:ions
on the Frimett alliance. Meanwhile it is not impessiole that
apprehension of the danger witit which the anxieties and
alarms insep trahle from residence in the centre of fierce poli-
tic agitation would be atrende Ita the tteilth of this
princess at so critical a juncture, would counsel the lying-in
at Pau.
The Gazette of yesterday bore a new proof of the earLeet
spirit of the reforms of Beltran de Lis. It contains a decree for-
bidding the conversion into Three per Cent Bondsof Treasury
Bills procedingfram contracts w.thout the report of the com-
mittee of liquidation pawing to the Consejo-Real to be exa-
mined in full comma, whose decision is to be reconsidered •
definitively by the council of ministers. The rise of the
public funds may be attributed to the confidence inspired by
such measures, and by the plain, straightforward dealing of
the present Minister of Finance.
Sanchez Silva, to whose researches as a member of the
• budget committee the Manor is no doubt indebted for the
information it publishes on the subject of titles, has proposed
in Congrem to make arrears of taxes payable in Three per
Cent. list Is, an important measure which will possibly be
adopted by the government.

TILE 'MANCHESTER UIIAMBER OF 1-08IMERCE re-
cently made their annual report, which concluded with the
following observations on the free-trade question:—
In conclusion, your board cannot hut ranee. Ito deep regret
that the dawn of the free trade policy of this country should have
been so clouded by adverse cirenmatancee, as to make it almost
true to say that the commencement of it has yet to take place.
The corn bill of 1016 w. but a promise to admit corn ats •
nomtnal duty, at a day three ;curs distant, for in the face of a
famine, which had been raging In Ireland for nine months, it
retained a sliding scale of duties, ranging from four to ten Phil-
, lings per quarter; the subsequent suapension of that set took
' place in January, 1817, is not repent, d by your board as a
practical adoption of tree trade principles, but rather as a scramble
for fool for a (=tithing people, which must have been
granted by parliament had there been no previous relaxa-
tion of cur former restrictions, and which, in the circumstance.,
ander which it began, and in theme which have attended its progress,
Cap rather exhibited the former infatuation of our rulers than
the effects which arc sure to follow the letter system which the kap.
lature sanctioned when it emoted the measures of Sir Robert
Peers adminiamtion. A abort review of the circumstance, may be
useful. The failure of the potato crop and the corn harvest of 1815
alarmed the government. and did much towards laying bare tkat
which reason had long made manifest, the dthgee of continuing legal
reatrictiome upon the import of food ; for, besides the actual presence
of famine in Ireland, indicatens of coming calamity in this weary
could not be mistaken in the rapid disappearance of stocks,
and esnaequent advance or price, and the certainty of an
early necessity for seekings in foreign countries, though
the new law was still to be restrictive in a moderated degree
until teb.l, 18N. Vet there was a hope generally entertained that
the roundatiocie thus laid for safely might soon repair the past, and
enable us to provide against the future. But the diapeneatione of
Divine providence had further eintatione in store. The autumn of
1816 again displayed a second failure of the potato crop and a second
defective hared, not only its this country, but through the whole of
northern Europe; and no obvious became the approach of that misery
which has since been suffered, that in every country except our
own the promptest mealieres weee taken to incite supplier of food—
that food which the law had forbidden to be gradually accemulated
in this—to meet probable or apparent contingent:4e. It was under this
state of things that eir Robert. Peel's administrution carried their
mesterei through a stormy and raving opposition to completion,
both the corn importation and tariff bills receiving the royal area
on the 26th June, 1046. The amount of hellion in the Bank of England
on the 27th June was 16,015,6591. ; the reserve of notes, 9,661,0901.
These measure. were proposed to shield the country from the recur.
renee of the calamities which the hart eats of 1e45 had brought
upon it, and to which it was evident it must be ex-
posed, so long as the old system continued. On the 14th
October of that year, when the bullion in the Bank had fallen
to 15,581,2341. and the reserve of notes to 8,305,7651., your
board addressed an carnet memorial to the Lords of the Teseury
who had mouthed power on the resignation of Sir R. Peel's adminis-
tration, imploring them to open further the ports foe the free admis-
ion of food, and to suspend the navigation laws; but no step was
taken until the Mat January, 1817, on which day ministers announced
to parliament that it DM their intention to propose the suepension of
both thine laws ; and then only were we allowed to become competitors
in there markets where food was procurable. but where atocire had •
been diminished and prices greatly enhanced by the earlier opera-
Cons of other and wiser countries, which had for eever..l months had
priority over us. By thin cruel procretination were the intensity of
our calamine. and the coot of relieving them greatly Increased, whilat
the power to relieve was diminrehed. The suspenson acts received
the royal assent on the 26th of -liumery, 1817, in which week the Bank
bullion amounted to 12,901,658/., and the reserve of note to
5,703,5551. What effect this search for fool, eo sudden in its or, and
so protracted in duration, has had upon the meths of theigin country
may he gathered from the fact that betty en the 26th of June 1546,
when Sir Robert Peel's corn bill received the royal amens, and le sth
of November, 1847, a period of sixteen months. there hes been im-
ported f all kinds of grain an aggregate of 16,311,2a:quarters; whilst
the preeure upon consumers Is indicated by thin, that the weekly
average price of wheat, which was 52.. 2d. on the 27th June, 1816, be-
came on the 30th Jan., 1847, 71. t. ltd., and on the 29th May, 102 s. sd.
per qr.; on which !oat day the Million in the Bank was returned at
in,1ite,7211., or 3,815,938/. kas than on the 26th of June, 10th,
and the reserve of notes at 4,629,0304. or 5,036.060/. let than on the
day named. Ali this mold not occur with-tut grievous derangement
of the industrious pursuits of commerce; but without more than a
peeing allusion to • subject which has been, and Is still, most griev-
ously telt amongst us, it is clear that, up to this period, the utmost
energies of the country had bete uirected toward' obtaining food
with a hoote necessarily nettles, and not in that safe, cheap, and
gradual emuse which free trade is destined to secure, as mon as ex-
isting disturbances shall have paased away. (Loud cries of - Hear.”)
But other elements bare also intervened to defer the commencement
of free trade operation', of which one, the consequence of the rail-
way insanity of 1845 and 1846 won concurrent with the dratirt.nees
exceed he the famine, and another the crash of credit that soon fol-
lowed the drain of bullion, of which corn operations had been the
primary cause. In this manner halt been impossible to commerce
that Mealy and equable coupe of international commerce which they
who advocate free-trade principle have ever held to be the god at
which they aim, and the only s .fe basin for permanent prosperity.
Itut even amidst the jerks and confusion to which commerce lea been
subjected during these months of dreadful trial, owneh is manifest to
arm the free trailer with the utmost confidence in the truth of his
inciple, and to disarm objectors. On the peeing of the corn and
tariff bills of 15N, the legislature of the United States revised their
tariff in a similar spirit. The board records Ws fact with great de-
light, not that ri considers reciptocity necessary_ to the usefulness of
free trade, but beaux it will in this, au it world in every other in-
stance, greatly expedite and extend the bles-ing. But the famine in
this country forbade the gradual developmeot of the results which
were to ensue from the respective changes of policy ; our
necessity for food was dotard, and betwon the 3th July 1a46, and
the lOth October 1547, the United > totes supplied us with grain
of all kinds to the extent of 4,648,016 quarters. We had not goods
to give in return for such sudden purchase% nor did we then want
them ;we had is pay in gold. But In the enure! of a short time
U the nited States wanted goods more than geld, and dur-
ing the last twelve moaths the export of our manufacture
thither has been fourfold that of the previous year, and as we
have ceased to press upon her our extraordinary demand far grain,
she is now returning to r•
the gold which in the M.
innroneut we bad to part with. This gyration has not been
performed without greet Ices and disturbance to this country, but
for that our former corn-law system alone is reseonsible. One in-
stance of a different kind may also he noted. poring the search
we had to make for food, we received from the Levant and the
Black Sea 973,449 quarters of grain ; for this, supply little or no
gold has been required, bat the payment for some time h. been
going on in manufactures the valuable demand for which has con-
tributed so much of late to the employment of our orate.; and in this
may be found a vale bidet of whit mud ensue when demand and imp-
ply are freed from the trammels of our former mischievo.
Its board renews its aspiration. for the time when the consequences
of our unpreparedenet for famine shall have passed away. It does
not venture to motile how long the preset,: deplorable preside may
endure, no
when a return of confidence so necessary to healthy come
merce may be looked for, bat it does reiterate its conviction, thee
though the commencement of steady free trade has ben eeriest
impoeible by the convulsions of the Lot 18 month% nothing wiR •
contribute so much to the speedy reemitation of alien,. or the gees
ral good of the commonwealth as permedon to purchase freely what-
ever we may RIM, and especially food, wtxtraver it can be found beet,
and therefore cheapest.
The debate OD the report was adjourned for a month, the
only subject entered upon in the course of a short con-
