ten millions of reals applied for it in the name of the
Government, and .though the money was payable to
MENDIZABAL as a Minister of the Crown, it was re-
fused to his successor, the new President of the
Council. This mortifying incident was noticed by
the Procuradores in the sitting of the 16th, without a
syllable condemnatory of the conduct of the Banker's
Agent. The plot thickens, and we shall shortly have
the denouement.

We have seen letters from Madrid to a late hour on
the 17th. They represent the ferment in the capital
as continually increasing, and assuming a most alarm-
ing attitude. M. ISTURIZ had been for a consi-
derable time closeted with the QUEEN, and
rumours were circulated amongst the best in-
formed circles, and met with considerable credit,
that the decree for the dissolution of the Cortes,
had been signed. From the provinces we have
yet no certain news ; but the courier, the bearer
of the letters above mentioned, noticed during his
progress to the frontier, unequivocal symptoms of tur-
bulence.

Accounts from the army were looked for with the
greatest anxiety—the consequences of the stoppage of
all supplies to that quarter, at the present critical mo-
ment, were contemplated with dismay.

We have received the whole of the Paris Papers of
Sunday. Their contents are unimportant. The fol.

lowing are extracts :-
PARIS, MAY 22.-It is affirmed that a law on the Na-
tional Guard, supplementary to that of 1831, will be
shortly presented to the Chamber of Deputies. It is said
to be in a great measure the work of General Jacqueminot.
It consists principally in the multiplication and aggravation
of the punishments. Whatever may be the zeal of Gene-
ral Jacqueminot, it is doubtful whether his new penal code
for the citizen-soldiers can be voted, or even discussed, dur-
ing the present session.
The Minister of Commerce has authorized the Revue
Commerciale to publish documents existing in his office, to
guide the French merchants in their relations with foreign
countries.
To-day at noon the inquiry respecting the project for the
iron railroads from Paris to Rouen, Dieppe, and Havre,
which has been going on for this month past, at the Hotel
de Ville, was closed.-National, May 23.
The National has not a single word of intelligence from
Spain, or from any foreign country except England.

Bouitss, QUARTER TO FOUR.-Very little business was done
to-day. Three per Cents. are rather worse. They have
been done at 811. 90c., and are now buyers at that price, and
sellers at 811. 95c. Spanish Active Stock is much steadier
here than in London. The price opened at 44, and is now
431 ; but very little business is doing in any Spanish stock.
