PARIS, WEDNESDAY EVENING

The mirk e favour shown by the Emperor
Napoleon to Prince Joachim,.Murat—a very young
mar, although said to be sensible. beyond his
years, and a mere lieutenant in the army—bee
.;
seedling him to Berlin with the letter to the King
of Prussia, could not fail to attract observation,
and give rise to rumour~. One of these, which I
did not consider. worth mentioning at the time,
was, that Trine:, Joachim would be the French
candidate for the throne of Moldo-Wallachia.
Oilier names have also at different times been put
forward as likely to have the support of thiS
government if it should be finally decided to
place a foreign prince over the Danubian
Provinces. These reports may all be con-
sidered ns idle, and as set at rest by the
fact that, should a foreigner be needed to rule over
the country in question, the French Government
will be an advocate for the choice being left to the
Molds-Wallachians themselves In that case, and,
if my information from the Principalities he correct,
it is not probable that a member of the Bonaparte
family would be selected. It seems a fixed idea
with some persons that the Empeor Napoleon seeks
opportunities of placiiig his relations on foreign
thrones, but certainly up to this time there has
been not.the least iedication of a desire on his
part thus far to imitate his uncle's system.
Up to late last night nothing had been decided
at Madrid about the new Ministry. Nobody can
understand the conduct of the-Queen, or what she
is alining at ; and • some alarm seems to have been
excited by the id-ea that had got abroad that Bravo
Murillo was Considered by; her to be too liberal in
his political views. Amid these unpleasant doubts
and misgivings, general satisfaction 'appears tnbe
felt at the fall of Narvaez and his colleagues, whose
period of power, and especially its latter portion ,bas
been marked by .every kind of illegality, jobbery,
and oppression. Sanguine persons has entertained
some hopes of Narvaez, whose programme was one
of reconciliation and moderation, from which he
quick!), departed ; and lie committed the faultsof
surrounding himself with persons whose unpopu-
larity infected him. His Minister of the Interior.
M. Candid() Nocedal (eandil only in name), is
probably the most unpopular 'man in Spain—a
man whose recklessness of public opinion and
neglect of common decency have earned him the
moat odious reputation. It is well known that in
Spain no great amount of talent is required to lift
a men into a high place. Self-confidence, some
aptness for intrigue, an abseucee of all scruples,
and quickness in scezing au opportunity,
have been the chief qualifications of nine out
of ten of the ministers who, for more than 20
years, have misgoverned constitutional • Spain:
All these requisites Nocedal possessed. Three or
four years ago the notion •of his becoming a
minister would have been scouted as a bad
.jest.
When once he had worked himself into office be
commenced the mad gallop in which a beggar on
hors:-back is proverbially said to indulge. His
insolence astonished even those who knew him
best. The manner in which he treated senators
and deputies, men whose age and position at least
'entitled them to some consideration—leaving their
letteA and applications for interviews unanswered,
and in various ways slighting and offending them—
raised np for him hosts of enemies. Alwayseies-
pised, he soon made himself detested. There can
be no question that his presence by the side of
Narvaez estranged from the Premier many who
would otherwise have supported him, and contri-
buted hugely .to render impossible that un'oo
among the Moderato party which the Duke of Va
lencia, at.the op wing of the c9Ftes of 1857, empha-
