[BRITISH PR ESSI •
Last, night we received the Paris Papers -of
FrWay,with theEtoile, dated the following day. A.
slight accident had happened to the King, which
had produced temporary indisposition. While
his Majesty was sporting a, few days ago at Rana-
bouilleT, he suddenly had occasion to go up.a
steep path newly :gravelled. The .guard who
was carrying. the ..King's fowling piece by his
side, slipped in consequence of having trod•on a,
flint. The King attempted to prevent his fail, and-
in so doing was thrown with him to the ground.
The guard was not hurt, but the King felt a pain
in his loins, which was increased by hisjournpy
to Parrs. The application of leeches became 'lei,
cessary, and by them his .Majesty was. relieved.
He has since intirely recovered. The s,ubscrip-
tiOn for, General Foy's family is proceeding.,-with.
great success. Receiving places have been open-
ed in all the great towns in France, and in..seve,
ral in Belgium... The amount.. advertised .on,
Thursday evening was 371,595 fran6. There,is
every reason, to believe that the question of,
American ind;Tendence is now under the ennsi,
sideratioq of the:Cabinet of Madrid, The Etoile,
indeed,'in very coarse terms, deniei the assertions
of the Spanish correspondents of two of tlieopßo,
sition Journals, that Mr. Lamb and the other..
foreign Ministers had presented notes calling
upon the Cabinet of Madrid to e-xplain its inten-
tions regarding its late possessions in America ;
but the Male doei not deny that the subject has;
been by some means forced upon the attention of
the Duke -del Infantado and his colleagues..
Meanwhile the Colombians, it appears, are en.
deavouring to enter into friendly relations mid)
the Emperor of Morocco, who continues to ex-
tend his protection to the unhappy fugitives from
the Peninsula. The arrival of part of the Capi-
tan Pacha'a fleet at. Navarino is confirmed .by •
several
_letters from the lonian Islands. . The
remainder was engaged in combats, of . what
nature we are not informed, between the islands
of Candia and Cerigo. There had been'a decline
of nearly one per cent. in the French Funds on
Thursday.

LTIIE TIMES.]
The French Papers of Thursday and Friday
are principally filled with political and financial
discussion. The Journal des Debats and the
Constiltdionnel contain letters from Madrid, in
which additional details are given of the manner
in which the diplomti'tic body testified the disap-
probation of their Courts at the dismissal of M.
Zea. They at first informed us, that -the
tish Ambassador took 'no interest in the proceed-
ings of the Spanish Court, but they now tell Us.
that his Excellency has addressed a note to the
Duke of Infantado to the following purport :
That all the European Powers having agreed in
" the necessity in which Spain is placed of recog-
" nixing the independence of America, and all of
" thorn embracing eu that subject the opinion or
" En:4lam], although they differ on some minor
" points and details,it would be desikable that the
" Spalisii Government came ton determination to
" enter into arrangements with its former subjects,
" and that in case it did not, every one of the.
" Powers would make treaties 'with the
" gents suitable to their interests." 'lt requires.
little penetration to see that a note of this tenor
could never be written by any British Minister.
Accordingly, the _Etoile denies, as from authority,
the authenticity of the statement.

Another meeting of the New Catholic Asso-
ciation took place at Dublin on Wednesdaj last,;
but we suppose the people of England are not
very anxious to know what was said by Nr.
O'Connell, Mr. James O'Gorman, Mr. Nicholas
O'Gorman, Mr. Coppinger, and Mr. O'Gorman'
Mahon. If any curiosity should prevail as to
the opinions of these worthy orators, any report
of any Irish meeting for the last two years wilt
answer the purpose. It is always the same dish,
dressed in the same way.—(lbid)

[MORNING POST.]
We received last night by Express Paris Jour-
nals to the 10th instant, and the Eloile of Satur-
day. The King of France has been slightly in-
disposed in. consequence of a fall which he had -
whilst shooting at Rambouillet. As he was.
ascending a steep and sandy path, the Guard '
who carried his gun stumbled over a stone.
The King endeavoured to save him but was
dragged along in his fall and rolled with him
to the ground. The Guard was not hurt, but:.
his Majesty's back was sprained, and the
tigues of the journey from Rambouillet to
Paris having increased the pain, it becamp.,
necessary to apply leeches to reduce the in.
flammation. The whole, however, was kept a
profound secret, till the King was considered
sufficiently recovered to prevent any alarm being
created by the knowledge that he had met with
an accident. Had it transpired earlier, the effect
might have served to augment the panic in the
Money market, and the rapid decline of all the
public securities. Both the Journal As Debats .
and the Cunstitutionnel contain letters from Ma-
drid, which state that the British Ambassador .
had addressed a note to the Duke de Plnfaa-
tado, declaring that all the European Powers
shared the opinion of England, and being
agreed that it was necessary for Spain to recog-
nise the independence of South America, called
upon the Spanish Government to enter into ar-
rangement with its former subjects across the
Atlantic ; adding, that if this were not done,
every Power would openly conclude with the
Insurgents such treaties as they would think con-
sistent with respective interests. The Elate
however contradicts these assertions, kgether ,
with one still more confidently made, that the .
Ambassador of France had demanded the pay- •t
went of the amount of the two first instalments-
due to the French, insinuating that otherwise the
French Government might very likely resolve
to withdraw its troops. It de Tares, not in
the most polite terms, that these statements are
" lies," and advises those Papers to compose
them in Paris, instead of paying a correspondent ,
