PARIS PAPERS.

PARIS JUNE 2,6.--The Grand Duke of Tus-
cany died on the evening of the 18th inst., at the
age of 55 years 1 month and 12 days, after an
illness of only 6 days. His only son succeeds
him under the title of Leopold 11. It is not
known on what day his funeral will take place ;
there is no precedent on this subject. Since John,
Gaston de Medicis, not a Grand Duke of Tus-
cany has died at Florence. The Grand Duke
Ferdinand Third was the first of the House of
'Lorraine who died in this town. It is thought
that the ceremonial of Vienna will be partly fol-
lowed. The Grand Duke and Grand Duchess
set off for the town of Castello, a league distant
from Florence, as soon as the Grand Duke
breathed his last. The account of his illness
reaehed the Princess de Carignan, his daughter,
at 'Turin, on the 19th inst., at eight o'clock in
the evening.
A letter from Vienna states that the Prince
Paul Esterhazy, the Austrian Minister at London,
is destined to fulfill the same functions at Paris.
—He will be succeeded in the English Embassy
by Count Appouy, the Austrian Minister at
Rome. It is said that M. the Baron Vincent
has refused the Embassy of Rome.
M. the Marshal Duke of Belluno has just dis-
tributed among the Peers of France a memorial
respecting his administration of the war depart-
ment.

PARIS, JUNE 26.—(Stock Exchange, June 25,
'ire o'Clock )—The fraud upon Rothschild's
house was the general subject of conversation

'upon 'Change to:day. It seems that the origin of
Thu operation was a bargain for Neapolitan Stock,
which M. Doloret bought of Messrs. Rothschild
for the Account, which l afterwards relin-
quished, and subsequently declared he wished to
resume. It was upon the profit resulting from
this bargain that the account was to have been
stablished, in virtue of which M. Rothschild of
Loudon drew upon the house of Rothschild of
Paris. It is said that part of the acceptances
have already been seized, and the signature
erased. The affair, it is added, is in the hands
-of the Attorney-G sieral. The price of Stocks
has experienced a further improvement. The
Five per Cents. for Money closed at 103 f. For
the end of the.month, the price at four o'clock,
when the Parquet closed, was 103 f. 15c. At
this hour it is 103 f. 25c. The Old Spanish Bonds
.have risen. In other foreign securities there is
no alteration.

A Council of Ministers was held at the house
a the Count de VlHelp.

The Count de Caraman, French Ambassador
at Vienna, and the Baron de Nagles, Director-
-General of the Post-office of Prussia, passed
through Frankfort on the Igth instant, on their
way to J ohan nis berg.

On Thursday evening the hotel Meurice, where
the Infant Don Miguel resides, was brilliantly
illuminated, in honour of the fete of the King of
Portugal. In the garden were stationed some
military bands, who played various airs.
A private lettei- from Leipsic states, that not
ouly has the Russia❑ Prince Galitzin been dis-
missed from his functions as Minister of Worship
and Public Instruction, but also from those of
Director of Bible Societies.

MA nRID, JUNE 7.—Tl e King and Royal Fa-
mily will return to Madrid from Aranjuez on the
lgth inst. The French Ambassador is still with
his Majestyrand will return here with him. The
Tollowing Decree has just been issued :

" It being the will of the King our Lord that at his arrival
no other persons should be found in the capital but those who
•-can remain there in conformity to the laws, particular orders,
or other provisions, all those who have not been resident in that
.city for the last six years, employed in trade, or a known occu-
pation and open house, are commanded to depart from it fbrth-

-with, as they cannot in any respect be considered to be citizens
of Madrid. The clerks or public functionaries, who have ro-
e orders to quit the capital, are forbidden to return, or to
make the shortest stay. This order more especially concerns
til Ecclesiastics, who, in consequence of superior commands,
re:;ide at Madrid."

This circular has been addressed to all the
Commissaries of Police by the Director Arjona,

who, it is said, hesitated long before he would

3:gti it.

PARIR, JUNE 2G.—The Chamber of the 'Fri-
-bon:11 of Correctional Police has pronounced the
,nullity of the seizure made by the King's Attor-
,ney-General of the first number of the Aristarque
:Francais, for the following reasons :
iiiecaitse the Journal is the property of the man who com-
=menced the undertaking—
Because the Aristarque has fulfilled-the conditions required
,by the law of the period in which it appeared—
Because that, according to the law, the proprietor has only a
•-right to declare that his Journal no longer exists—
Because that the giving of bail is only a condition of its exist-
ence, but not inherent in its existence; that the bail may he
withdrawn, and by that means the Journal suspended, but not
•anniltilateu ; and if it were otherwise, the bailing party might
cause the Journal to disappear without the consent of the pro-
prk.ter. Because only one of the ;ail of the Aristarque de-
mantled to withdraw his bail. Because the rights of the actual
proprietors have not been disputed. Because the Tribunals
are alone competent to take cognizance of abuses of the liberty
of the press. Because the Editor of the Aristorque has fill-
-filled, so far as depended on him, the formalities required by
-the laW for the publication of a Journal. And, the complaint
being dismissed, the Marquis de Bonne Puygiron granted a
replevy of.the seizure, &c.

s
.PAms, JUNE 26.—We aid a month ago that
. '.}.;irland could not acknowledge the independence of South
America, on account of the defeat of Bolivar in Peru, the anar-
-chy prevailing every where, and the ridicule with which she
would be covered, if, at the tune of her recognizing the inde-
pendence of both parts of America, Spain, as is probable,
should get possession of them, and bring them again under
ler rule.
The scene which took placein Parliament between Sir J.
Mackietesli.and Mr. Canning has not changed our opinion
on this important question. The two orators had evidently
• -come to an understanding before hand, as to the question, the
answer, and the point of discussion ; they both played their
:parts well, the Parliament applauded, the curtain fell, and the
scene,, for once, ended to universal satisfaction.
Let us examine what was said, •leaving enigmas and unin-
,teeuhiblle phrases to those who love them. in the former dis-
3'nthis affitir, a pure and simple acknowledgment of
right had always Mackintosh fix. been spoken of. In the present one Sir J.
ins the sense of this recognition, which Is reduced

would it be to
say to him, you are independent, if,
at the same time, Spain were told, you have a right to hang'

;Power of the .Royalists; Y does

wish to expose the English Government to the ridicule of a re-
cognition which, according to its system, it would be neces-
sary
to withdraw on the morrow. We now see that ➢lr. Can-
ning has no hope but for the Republic of Colombia. This is a
singular defeat for the hopes he gave birth to when he announced
to the world in Parliament that the Spanish Americas were de
facto independent.
For the second time, Mr. Canning. is about to commit a
great fault. When the war with Spain was in question, he
made such declarations to the Parliament, that it was believed
England would take an active part with the Revolutionists.
He thought to strike terror. Afterwards he lavished his advice
on both parties; and at last, during the siege of Cadiz, in the
latest moments of the existence of the Revolution, he still of-
fered his mediation.

The course which Mr. Canning. follows with Spain and her
Americas is the same. At first independence de facto; it was
believed that England would take active part for the Ameri-
cans • he wished to create alarm ; then tame counsels to Spain
that ;he herself should declare the independence of her Colo-
nies ; and at last he offerss a mediation betwaen the Mother
Country and her. trans-marine possessions. It is impossible
that this policy should not have the same results as that which
was followed towards the Spanish Revolutionists; and Mr.
Canning will write to Colonel Hamilton the same letter that he
wrote to Sir Wm. A'Court a few days before the surrender of
Cadiz. In that letter he made the amende honorable as to the
strength which he thought the Spanish revolution to possess,
and announced that the other _Members of his Alajesty's Coun-
cil had better judged of the state of things than he had.

The only interest, the immediate interest (of England) is to
trade with the Spanish Colonies on paying moderate duties, as
has long been done in Havannah, and the Philipine
The English, French, and the other trading nations, by aiding
the prosperity of these islands, have and still do carry on a
brilliant traffic. The whole coast of Peru and Chile will soon
be open to them, which will give an immense outlet to Euro-
pean manufactures. Later, indubitably, will come the liberty
of trade with Mexico, and then all the most important com-
merce of America will be open ; for Terra Firma and Buenos
Ayres are ruined for a long time to come.
If the other possessions enjoyed the same Ile facto independ-
ence so long as these two Republics, they would also have been
ruined. And what trade could be carried on with countries
wasted by so many years of anarchy ? " The too brilliant hopes"
which Mr. Canning* warned his hearers against, are applica-
ble to this fact. It is evident, then, even by his own admit.
sion, that the immediate interest of commerce, as well Eng-
lish as of other nations, is, that the Spanish colonies should
return to submission to the Peninsula—that a tariff with mo-
derate duties should be established by Spain, and that hence-
forward all nations should participate in an advantageous trade,
without fearing piracy on sea or land.
We venture to predict that such will be the issue of so many
discussions.. The energy of the English Cabinet, and its love
of order and legitimacy, may be displayed, and will be dis-
played—we cannot doubt it—once more in favour of Spain and
of universally acknowledged principles of justice.
* He foresaw the reproaches he would be exposed to. The
recognition of independence would lead to twenty years more
of war, the issue of which could not be foreseen. and trade
would be null as it is in Buenos .Area and Terra Firma.—
