Three o'clock, pat.
The Paris Papers of Friday have just arrived,
anal, from the critical state of the Continent, their
contents must soon convey intelligence peculiarly
interesting to Eunve. Considerable importance is
attached to a Cabinet Council, held on Tuesday last
at the residence of the Keeper of the Seals, and the
next day the King presided at a Cabinet Council,
which sat from twelve to two o'clock. In the public
(Aces also much business is observed, and the ru-

mourn of an approaching war obtain consistency.—
The Eden du Midi states, that the Aide-de-Camp
of the French Minister of War had arrived at Bourg
M..daine, and had had it conference with the Roy.
alist Governor of Puyenda, on the Spanish side of
the river which form the boundary between the two
countries in that quarter. There are indications of
too great an intimacy between the French Govern-

went and the insurgents of Spain, an intimacy that
alarms all rational people in France, as it forebodes
a rupture between the two nations. The bigotry of
those who have sway and influence in that kingdom
leads them to espouse the cause of the insurgent
Monks and Priests, while some of the French Mi-
nisters imagine, that the establishment of a Constitu-
tionial Government in Spain would be dangerous to
the security of France. Such are the besotted and
mistaken politic% that are likely speedily to unsettle
. the state of Europe, and produce a scene of desola-
tion which the blind zeal of the Ultra maniacs pre-
vents them from foreseeing. The statement of the
antra Journals of the detest of Mina, with great
loss, before Castelfollit, is considered to be nothing
mare than one of those fabricated and unfounded
rumours with which the French Ministerial Jour-
nals abound, whenever they touch on Spanish affairs,
regardless clike of their character and. veracity.—
The Condit:aim:ad replies to this statement, by
giving a despatch from that General to the Governor
of Barcelono, dated the 24th ult. apprising him, that
after a siege of seven days, and a moat obstinate de
fence, Castelfollitt, with all its forts, had fallen into
the hands of the Conoitutinnalitts.
