MADRID, JAN'. 10.
•
For several days past a certain agreement has been noticed
between our Government and that of France ' • it is not so be-
tween the Spanish people and their allies. The French have
at present against them all the servile and monastic population,
which composes the great majority of the people. It is a me-
lancholy circumstance to have spent such immense sums, to
have shown so much generosity, and not to have found more
friends. Ail that we now say is however the exact truth.—
(Courier Francais.)

PARIS' Jaw. 2l.—We have already predicted that the con-
duct and language of our publicists who advocate Jesuitism
woldd tend to eusperate the EnglishGoverthnent against th;

Catholics, and make it consider individuals who profess this
Faith as dangerous, and ready to revolt against the Government.
The Etoile in reproaching Mr. Canning for having recognised
the South American Republics, threatens him with vengeance
from India and Ireland. Nothing can do more injury to the
cause of the Catholics of Ireland than such threats, which be-
get a belief that there exists a connection between them and our
congregation of Jesuits. Nothing can be more likely to expose
them to severity, for it is wellknown that the Ultramontane
Militia allow neither kings nor people to enjoy peace unless
they are themselves kept in obedience. Fanaticism, which has
ruined the Peninsula, and destroyed the liberties of the Gal-
lican Church, may retard the civilization of Ireland for a whole
century. Those, too, who blow up the fire of sedition in that
country, make it a crime in England to recognise the inde-
pendence of the Spanish colonies. Resistance to oppres-
sion seems in their view to be right only in the Jesuits and
their friends. As.to India, the English have remarked witty,
surprise, that the Birmans mamsuvre after the European man—
ner, and employ arms made in Russia: This discovery has
caused some sensation at London,-and to it is attributed the re-
solution of the British Cabinet to leave off temporising. Mr.
Stratford Canning, it is supposed, is instructed to ask from the
Court of Petersburgh an explicit explanation on these points.—
( Constitutionnel.)

We extract from German Papers, which al--
rived this morning, an article from Augsburg,.
containing some sensible observations on the late
fruitless negociations between France and Hayti,
which are peculiarly interesting at the present
moment. The story of the meditated invasion of
St. Domingo by France, mentioned in the Hague
Courant,is quite incredible; and theAugshurg writer
shows very clearly that it would be more for the
interest of France to effect an amicable arrange-
ment with Hayti, and thus secure to herself a.
productive trade with her former Colony and no
ample indemnity for the French Colonists, that
to resort to open force, and run all the risks of
war, destructive alike of her soldiers and her re-
sources.

A UGSBITIZG, JAN.I7.

.
The Allgemeine Zeitung contains a very long article con-
cerning Hayti, headed France, 3d January. 'this article has
lost much of its interest by the publication of the official docu-
ments relative to the late negociations between France and •
Hayti. The writer recapitulates the negociations that have
taken place since the restoration of the Bourbons. First was
the mission of General Lavaysse immediately after the restoi
ration, which failed, because he required that Hayti should re-
turn to the state of a colony : it is remarkable that the French
Government afterwards denied having.sent him on this mission,
while the Government of Hayti affirms that the Gene-
ral delivered- to it his original instructions, signed bY
the Minister of the Marine. 'The Second attempt was
in 1816, when Lieutenant-General Fontanges and Mona,.
Esmangart were sent to Hayti; to induce Petion and
Christophe to recognize the supremacy. of France. The
conditions proposed were on the whole very favourable- .
Petion was not satisfied, because they did not recognize the in-
depence of the Republic. The negociations having been again
broken off, it is not unlikely that if France had felt itself suffi-
ciently strong it would have attempted hostile measures. lo
these latter years indeed France might perhaps have felt itself
able to make an attempt, but as it has done mottling for eight
years, it may be presumed to have renounced the idea of con-
quest, especially as it has again proposed negociations. It
was not to be supposed that France meant to repeat the
proposals rejected in 1816 ; but that it was prepared to recog-
nise the independence of its former Colony, at least under cer-
tain conditions. Nor could it be expected on the other hand:
that the Government of Hayti would abandon the basis it had
before laid down, for though it might have more to fear now front
the power of France, yet the safety and strength of theikepub•
lie is increased by the union of the whole island under ono
chief, and the position of England with respect to the South
American States affords a kind of collateral support to Hr., ti. Ir
may be presumed that French commerce would enjoy some peen'
liar advantages in return for the abandonment of its pretensions/
and would be favoured also by the predilection for every thing
French which may be supposed to exist among a people living
in the French manner. The Colonists would be indemnifien,
for the loss of their plantations by the sum of 100 millions ei
francs, which would be a very reasonable compensation to be,.
paid byi the Haytians, to whom the property would be mow
more valuable, and it is not likely they would refuse to pay is'
The grand cause of the rejection of the proposals of Frani°,
probably is its demand to place strong garrisons in the toy
most important points of the island, as a guarantee for the pet:
ment of the stipulated sum. It seems reasonable in France to
require security, and prudent in Hayti to refuse a security of till.
description. If Hayti, couldfind means to partlfe scam required
once, no security would be wanted, and the reconciliation desarell
by both parties might be brought about. It cannot be doubted ths
the Government of Hayti might easily make a loan for 4 million
sterling in England on reasonable terms, as soon as it w
certain that the sum will be applied to obtain from France 01
recognition of the independence of the Republic. The polities
situation of Hayti would afford the lenders much better sass:*
rities than any of the new South American Governments',
which have borrowed such large sums in a short time. 'Tis•
energetic Proclamation of Boyer, on the return of his nee
ciators, does not take away all hope of an amicable arrant'
ment. He shews himself as a prudent Chief, ready to meet '
worst that may happen ; and it may rather be hoped tn.;
France will be sensible that it will attain its object by Menai'
means better than by open force.

the Articles of the Constitution that relate to the Viceroy
—Hence is explained the idea long entertained by his ivir,
jesty to call back his son to be near him.— The following arc the
proposed changes in the Constitution :—Section 14, Only 01,
Crown Prince, or his eldest son, can be Viceroy, when they half
attained the age fixed for the majority of the King. The otEeel
Governor can he given to a Norwegian as well as to a Swede,
the Viceroy, with the King's consent, is out of the Kingdouij

I'he Austrian Observer, which arrived last
! ,'lght, contains a report of th* operations of the
I,urks and the Greeks, which will be found in
"Other column. As usual, the successes of the
Greeks are reduced to nothing, and their bites-
Ilse divisions highly exaggerated. The Consti-
tuionnel, on the other hand, contains an article
frein Corfu, dated 17th December, which shews
that if the Greeks are suffering from civil disseu-
.l3c'ns, the condition of the Turks is little bettor
in that respect, and that the Ottoman Porte, by
%en ding the grandson of the celebrated, ALL
4611 e. to. Albania, is itself fomenting disunion
4rn°tlg its best warriors, and sowing the seeds
Of a civil war among its own partisans. The arti-
cle in the Constitutionnel to which we allude, af-
ter sortie remarks on the arrival of MArtmoun
!AGRA, the grandson of Ar.i PAcnA, at Vasi-
conclUdess with the following paragraph :
veTer Vrione knows well that the Porte only wishes to draw
'llll Into the interior of the empire to destroy .him. with the
titer !Else ; but so far from repairing thither, he will defend
cl?eif in Albania, where he has numerous partizans. Mahmoud

rat of his. grandfather, will not fail to come into collision
"k 9 him. Behold libel], the war of Ali Paella renewed; than
1411 10.1 no circumstance more advantageous to the Greeks could
4,tise The most probable supposition in this case is,
,that

gyre up to them the fortresses of Arta, Prevesa, and Souli, upon
the conditions that such an alliance was attempted to be formed
sornetime ago.

ROTHSCHILD, jointly with some noblemen
high rank, has obtained from Government a
grant of those lands in North Wales which were
formerly the property of Sir HuGll MIDDLETON,
but afterwards reverted to the Crown. These
lends, although they have not been worked for
a very long period, are well known to contain
:)fe of various metals in great abundance. It is
therefore; proposed, under the superintendance
Mr. Rontscumn and the noblemen above al-
'Wed to, to form a company and to raise an ade-
quate capital, for the purpose of working. this
Valuable district. The public advantages of this
great undertaking, in forming a most just and
111efIli medium for the investment of English Ca-
pital, as well as in furnishing employment to an
almost indefinite extent to the labouring poor in
need
not be dwelt on. It is not surpris-
ing that this splendid undertaking, in this era of
schemes of every description, should have raised
Peculiar expectation in the city, and it is mate-
rial, therefore, that it should not be confounded
with other undertakings which might be supposed
'rom their title to arise out of it. This has been
the Case with the Welsh Mining Association,
,which has been mistaken for that in which Mr.
OTIISCHILD is concerned. It is proper, there-
fore,ll, to state for the information of capitalists,
that no company has yet been formed in conse-
Vence of the grant to Mr. ROTHSCHILD, nor
any of the preliminary arrangements for
that purpose been made. Nothing, in fact, has
:et been done beyond the completion of the grant
from Government. We understand that it is
RoTnscumn's intention to publish with the
utmost expedition the reports of the several En-
&ineers sent to examine these lands.
...We are happy to announce that his Excellency
matquis WELLEsrAv is perfectly recovered.
