millions of shares and 12 millions en obligations, the

.M. CASIMM PERRIER himself, in- proposing the for-
matiou of a company for this lendableenterprise 'had
set :(7,otvn his ntunefer a vary large sum. His illness
and 'other circunistences arrested the project, and we
believe that-pm person pf sufficient influence to have a
reaentieble prospect of success had taken it up, until
about two years ago, when the PRESIDENT of the Re-
public- directed his attention to it. In what state it
now ie as regards the Chief of the State, we know not,
but it iOreasonable to suppose that any project founded
on theinies of that of M. CASIMIR.PEREIER would
have his cordial support.

SPAIN.

Our accounts from Madrid are of the 241 inst.
We read in the Espana—
" Yesterday, in returning from her promenade, the
Queen paid rather a singular visit to her August Mother.
Her Majesty ordered her carriage to be stopped under
the balcony of the palace of Queen Christina, who,
bLing apprised of the circumstance, immediately went
to the balcony, and a conversation took place between
their Majesties, which lasted half an hour. As may be
readily supposed, this circumstance attracted the notice
of all the persons who were assembled in the square of
S. Anthony, and they drew near to listen to the con-
versation. Queen Isabella complained greatly of the
length of the quarantine established between the two
palaces, in consequence of the measles in the children of
Queen Christina, and her August Mother repeatedly
It is necessary; it is necessary.' A great part
conversation related to the Princess Royal, whom
of
the replied,ue Queen Isabella sabella had in her arms, and on the time to be
fixed for her vaccination."
The Three per Cents. were done at 434 for time; the
New Three per Cents. at '2 2 ; the Debt of the First Class,
at 814 ; that of the Second, at 5 7-16; and the Coupons
at IU.
