In the Paris Papers that arrived last night, the'
correspondence from Madrid is dated the 26th
ult. The only allusion to the Spanish finances
relates to the failure of the mission of M. Uriarte
to Holland, for the purpose of negociating a loan
there, through M. Navia, the Charge d'Affaires
at the Court Of the Netherlands. It was this
failure, we believe, that decided Ferdinand and
his Ministers to accede to the terms offered by
the English capitalists. Great repugnance was
felt to the partial recognition demanded for
the bonds of the Cortes ; but overwhelming
necessity left the Spanish Government no alter-
native : the treasury was absolutely empty, and
all hope of supply was extinguished except on
the condition to which Ferdinand finally, with
much reluctance, assented. The negociation had
been long pending ; and the admission of the
Constitutional bonds was agreed to several
months ago ; but it would seem that Ferdinand
did not till lately abandon his expectation of ob-
taining relief upon terms more acceptable. The
overthrow of his authority in Peru, and his daily
increasing and severely pressing wants, at length
fixed his wavering and tedious purpose. Some of
the Evening Papers of yesterday, without ven-
turing to deny our statements on this subject,
have nevertheless affected to treat them as if
they were without foundation. One of these
Papers remarks, in its city article, that " the
assertion (that a Spanish loan is concluded)
has been so often repeated, that it has lost
its effect." If the design of this sentence be
to insinuate that we have sent forth any asser-
tions concerning the new Spanish loan, which have
turned out to be in any respect groundless, we
deny the fact imputed to us ; and we challenge
the writer of the article to point out a line we
have published on this subject that has not been
since justified by events, now generally known
to be true. All that we said previously to yester-
day was, that the negociation far the loan had
not been interrupted, as the Times had positive-
ly stated. We said, that so far from being broken
. -
off for the reasons alleged by the Times, viz. Fer-
dinand's invincible determination never to ac-
know ledge the bonds of •the Cortes,we had agreed
,to admit them in the subscription to a new loan,
and that it only remained to be settled at what
rate they should be received. We said farther, that
we believed the negociation would be successfui ;
but we never stated that it was concluded till
yesterday, because it was only on Tuesday even-
ing that the letter was received from Madrid, on
which our information rested. If there be yet
any doubt remaining us to our correctness, a few
days must entirely dispel it. Meanwhile we advise
those who have not contradicted us not to have re-
course, for their own sakes, to misrepresentations,
which can serve them only until the following
morning. They will, besides, find it difficult pre-
sently to retrace their steps, when circumstances
shall render that movement absolutely necessary.
