PRENCII PAPERS.

The Paris Papers of Saturday have reached us by ex-
press ; the following are extracts :
VITTORIA, JAN.n.
The fury of a certain portion of the people, displayed in the gra.
tikation of every excess, and which seemed to have subsided, has
broken out again within these three days with greater bitterness
1 than ever. Insults, and even blows, are inflicted upon the unfor-
-1 tunate ex-national volunteers of our city, who, not being sufficiently
wealthy to remain in their houses, are obliged to go abroad to attend
to their necessary axupations. Hitherto the assailants preserved
something like moderation, and awaited for night to gratify at cn.ce
their hatred and their vengeance. But at present it is m oper day
and in the midst of the streets that the old volunteers are assaulted,
without daring to defend themselves. Upon the other side the
bands of partisans (though each of them weak in itself), seem to
increase each day in the direction of Sar tander; and we are as-
sured that in that city, the audacity of the Constitutionalists goes
even to the extent of singing the TragaLs in the hotels and coffee
houses.

It is also affirmed that the bands of Constitutionalists are increas-
ing in Esuemadura, which appears to be their rallying point; the
persons composing them style themselves the Brave. The question
respecting the acknowledgment of the loans of the Cortes, is again
the subject of discussion. It appears that his Majesty has expressed
upon this matter an opinion different froni that of his Ministers,
and that in consequence of this disagreement the Ministers of
Finance, of Grace and Justice, the Keeper of the Seals, and the
Minister of the Interior and of Foreign Attain, think of resigning
at the same time.

BRUSSELS, Jag. 17.
Before the last campaign made by the French armies in Spain,
that country saved as an advantageous market for our linens, and
principally for those of Courtesy. The Flemish houses established
at Madrid did a great deal of business in this branch. The late
events have diminished in a remarkable manner the sale of the
Flemish linens in Spain; and what is still more melancholy, an
English house is established at Madrid to obtain a market there
for the linens of Scotland, and by these means to spread them
through the entire Spanish monarcnv. This circumstance is still
more injurious to Belgium, as the Scotch linens are of a lower
price than ours, and their whiteness and lightness will, of necessity,
insure them a preference in a warm climate, where these qualities
are particularly sought for. The mercantile letter from which we
take these details complains bitterly of the general stagnation of
affairs. It concludes in these words :--`• Commerce is utterly ex-
tinguished throughout all Spain, and nothing short of a mfraela
will raise it for a long that."
PARIS, JAW. 23.
It is said that the Marquis of Talaru gives up the embassy at
Madrid, and that he wiU be succeeded by General Bourmont, who
commands the Army of Occupation. It is also mentioned that
M. Ilyde de Neuville will be recalled from Lisbon.
Lters from Madrid of the 14th affirms, that M. Casa lrugo,
the Prime Minister, is at the last gasp. The journal of Belgium
states, the artillery and engineer corps of Spain will be established
upon a religious and monarchical plan, as will also the tlniver-
thisa, and the education of youth will be entrusted to the Jesuits.

[From the Courtier Francais."
PARIS, J*w. 23.
General Guilleminot has been indisposed these three days, sad
is confined to his bed. This event will necessarily retard his de-
parture.
An explosion which was heard on the evening of yesterday,
upon the Place du t'atrousel, made all the military posts at the
Tuileries run to their arms. Upon the next morning it was disco.
vend that it was caused bye pistol shot which an unfortunate tailor
had fired for the purpose of destroying himself. He did not suc-
ceed in the attempt, but he was arrested and conveyed to prison.
