The Ministers of Joseph are extremely pleased
with the intelligence, that Napoleon has called to
Prince, Kellerman, tote Governor of St. Andero,
and others; awl say that Joseph is named Genera-
lissimo of the French troops io Spain, and Beßeard
his Mujor-General. But, at the same time, they
are disgusted by Manx* having been arrested at
Paris by order of Bonaparte (this is positively as-
sated), who has likewise ordered Urquijo to appear
there. The reason appears to be the publication
made by the Spanish Governineur, from various
intercepted letters; to which are added other
charges relative to the managing and employing of
the public purse.
'ihe point which extremely pains Bonaparte is,
the seeing himself obliged to send as much money
to Spain as he formerly drew from it, and much
more than he can again reckon upon drainiwg from
it. _ isov, y.
