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. The Trappist may test
by the side of U. Llorente, the Baron d'E
General Mina, and the Bishop of Tarragona !TA..
famous &cal Parades. Th'e portrait of the NOW
of the Cortes, M. 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.

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

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
