(tofore maintained with the unconscientious leader
of the Cabinet of the Tuilleries. Nothing whatever
can be obtained advantageous to the interests of Great
Britain byexposing still further the contemptible sophis-
tries ofa shameless statesman. Lord PALMERSTON might
1 double the extent of his masterly documents, illus-
trative of the Spanish policy adopted by the present
Administration, without divulging the chicaneries of
M. Guizor in a more conspicuous light, or
without rendering one jot more apparent the baseness
and juggling of that accomplished parasite.
The merits of this extraordinary misunderstanding
between England and France can scarcely be un-
folded more entirely than they are already, and,
therefore, a cessation from a correspondence that has
become, not merely superfluous, butliterally hazardous,
is manifestly the only rational course to be pursued.
Before the matter is brought to this comparative
settlement, it were reasonable, however, to enume-
rate the evils which have arisen indirectly and
directly from the selfish encroachments of King
Louis PHILIPPE and the accommodating morality of
his truckling Minister. It were well to see the
fruits which have been already gathered from these
sown seeds of international jealousy, and to form
some estimate of the pernicious consequences which
are always inevitable from a similar dereliction of all
the most sacred duties of statesmanship.
In Spain herself the harvest of troubles resulting from
this incongruous alliance are even now being rapidly
gathered in ; the confidence of the population in their
rulers has been shaken to its foundation with so much
violence that the powerful Cabinet of ISTURITZ has
been utterly subverted, and considerable difficulty is
experienced in constructing a new Administration
from its debris. Insomuch have these difficulties
accumulated round the Palace of IsAnELLA, that the
efforts of CASA IRUJO to form a Government have
proved altogether ineffectual, and it is somewhat
doubtful whether CASTRO I Onozco will be enabled
to collect into one compact body so many hetero-
geneous statesmen. But, apart from the considera-
tions of the obstacles existing to the establishment
of an Executive in the Peninsula, the whole frame-
work of Spanish society has been thrown into con-
fusion by the dastardly concessions of the rejected
Afrancesados ; the moral influence of ISABELLA
over her subjects is almost wholly eradi-
dicated from the hearts of the people, and the multi-
tude look with suspicion both upon her pageantries
and her seclusion. In Portugal, again, the evil con-
sequences of this introduction of Gallic power into
the Peninsula has been significantly experienced upon
her eastern frontiers, while DIETZ has fomented those
unconstitutional animosities in the heart of the king-
dom. It is unnecessary to trace the direct connexion
existing between the espousal of the INFANTA and the
incorporation of Cracow. It is equally superfluous
to specify the rupture of the entente cordiale solely in
consequence of the execrable duplicity of the French
Government. By the binding of that marriage knot
all the holiest bonds of amity between nation and
nation were loosened.

EGERIA.

We suspect that King Louis PlluarrE and hisfanti-
liar M. GUIZOT will ultimately find themselves in the
position of the gluttonous cur in .Esor, who loses
the substance in snapping at the shadow. In legisla-
tion, as well as in the marts of commerce, to the
statesman and the sovereign, as well as to the
pedlar and the costermonger, the venerable adage is
under all circumstances applicable, " Honesty is the
best policy." GUIZOT is finding this out already in
the execration with which his hypocrisy is regarded by
the more sensible among his fellow-countrymen.
LOUIS PHILIPPE'S turn will follow. The moral laws
are inexorable in their fulfilment. Time may elapse
to lull the anxieties of the credulous, but ultimately
there is certain to come the retribution, and the very
Procrastination of that retribution renders it on its
arrival only the more awful and overwhelming. The
recent calamities of Spain have each its NEMESIS, and
the swords of those avengers will descend together.

THE SUN, LONDON, TUESDAY EVE NING, FEBRUARY 2,

five acres ; and if Munster, with so large a relative
Proportion of farms from 15 to 30 acres, be the least
prosperous and worst cultivated province in Ireland,
what can justify dividing the waste lands into a
minimum of 25 acres and a maximum of 50 acres ?"
Again, it is evident that the greater the number of
farms we propose to create, the extra expenses for
barn building, road and fence making, will increase
in a heavy proportion. Therefore, as well upon this
as the other points to which we have referred, we
trust the Government will well consider whether their
scheme would not be far more beneficial by limiting
the farms in contemplation to an average much
beyond the size to which they have hitherto, in Par-
liament, expressed themselves to be favourable.

Advices from Frankfort state that the Northern
Powers have taken such offence at the Speech of King
Louis PHILIPPE in opening the Chambers, that they
have relinquished the intention they had intimated to
him of acknowledging the Queen of SPAIN.

It appears that the cause of the failure of the Duke
of SOTOZIAYOR in the construction of a Ministry, was
the objection entertained by himself and Senor BRAVO
Munuxo to entrusting the Portfolio of the Interior to
Senor PIDAL, without whom Senor MoN declared he
would not take office.

The Deputies sat on the 25th, but Senor SELTAs, who
presided, adjourned the sitting in consequence of the
absence of a Ministry. Senor CASTRO Y OROZCO, has
taken upon himself the task of constructing a Cabinet,
has presented to her MAJESTY two programmes,
one of concession, the other of resistance. Senor
PacnEco has suggested the first, and Senor BRAVO
MURILLO the second.

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.
The Cotton Market at Liverpool yesterday was without
animation. Sales, 3,000 bales, of which 1,500 were American
on speculation, at about previous rates. Shares were rather
flat again.
There are advices of a few days' later date from the Cape
of Good Hope, viz., to December 5. The Kafir war seems
to have been virtually at an end, although there was no
official announcement of peace having been concluded. The
Rev. Henry Calderwood had been appointed Commissioner
for the Gaika tribes in British Kafirland, and as this would
necessitate a residence in the country of our late enemies, it
was presumed that the appointment would be permanent, and
that the Governor expected to establish his authority without
further opposition. Since the surrender of Macemo, and the
communication carried on with Sandilla and Botman, the
people were more submissive, and had retired from a con-
siderable part of the country which they were informed was
to be constituted British territory. In the Gaika districts,
which, it is said, are to be called British Kafirland, many of
the natives were actively cultivating their gardens,
and the women were employed in providing firewood
and other necessaries for our camp, so great was
the feeling of security and satisfaction engendered
by the moderation in victory of the English troops.
At the same time every effort was made to instil into the
minds of the Kafirs the•perialty incurred by unjustifiable ag-
Fression, and they are stated to be sensible of the blame
justly ascribable to them. The Governor was drawing his
forces together, so as, if necessary, to exhibit an imposing
appearance, and in the settlement of the new boundary was
quite unfettered by any conditions made with the chiefs.
In a report of the Bristol Market a fall in the price of
sugar of 2s. per cwt. from the highest point, ten days since.
is noticed, and an advance of 2s. per gallon in rum, not a
puncheon remaining in first hands.
The English Securities have been further depressed again
to-day. The debates in Parliament last night upon the af-
fairs of Ireland are still looked upon as being unsatisfactory,
inasmuch as the method by which Government intends to
raise the funds for supplying food and work is left entirely
untouched. We find the belief pretty general, that when
the money comes to be raised, capitalists, knowing
the matter has been pushed off until the last
moment, will make the Government pay dearly for
the accommodation---tnore so than would be the
case were a loan at once taken, or an issue of bills effected.
At the same time, we should be sorry to encourage jobbing,
and if the supplies can be raised more cheaply by the crea-
tion and subsequent funding of bills, all the better. Tinker-
ing in finance should ever be avoided, and the promptest
measures are sometimes the best, and especially should be
so now, when the Bank of England is itself
likely to require its funds, and the usual reserve
of public deposits, to keep the currency in a sound condition.
Consols have ruled at 90% to 90% for transfer and
90% to 90% for time, having been yesterday morning
-1,4 to % per cent, above these rates. The New Three-and-a
Quarter per Cents. have been marked 92% %, and the Three
per Cents. 90% to 91. Bank Stock is heavy at 203 to 204,
and Exchequer-bills have receded to 6s. and 3s. premium.
The Foreign Bonds have been exceedingly dull. Spanish
Five and Three per Cents. have not been dealt in, the un-
settled state of the Ministry at Madrid not affording a guide
to either Bulls or Bears. Mexican Stock is fiat at 21%.
Brazil Bonds have been at 85. Dutch Two-and-a-Half per
Cents. are worth 58.
Shares have had a heavy appearance, and the dealings in
them have been mostly at lower rates, where the least dis-
position to press sales has been manifested.

The proceedings against the young persons concerned
in the riots near Pampeluna show that the youths were
actuated by no political motive. They merely resisted

MADRID BoLSA, JAN. 25.—Threes, 313 ; Fires, 20
15-16.

We have received the Paris papers of Sunday.
The Ministerial journals publish the reply of M,
G CIZOT tO the last dispatch of Lord PALMERSTON,
which the Debats hopes may terminate the correspon-
dence. Towards the conclusion of its observations on
the dispatch the Debals has the following remarkable
paragraph, which, as the article evidently emanates from
the hotel of the Minister for Foreign Affairs, may be
taken as an admission on the part of M. GunoT of the
entire truth of the statements of the Marquis of NOR-
MANDY ; a confession on the part of the French Minister
that he knowingly and wilfully acted with bad faith
towards the English Ministry and the English Ambas-
sador, and an attempt to excuse rather than to justify
his bad faith by the untlushing reiteration of a twenty-
times-refuted falsehood:—
" There remains but ore word more to say about the dis-
pute which the English portion of the correspondence has
given rise to among the French papers. It appears to us
that there is a great mistake as to the degree of confidence
the English Ambassador might have a right to expect on
the part of the French Minister for Foreign Affairs. The
reasoning is quite as if M. Guizot was bound to take Lord
Normanby for his 'confident.' This is a complete misap-
prehension of the nature of the relations that could exist,
under such circumstances, between the two Governments.
The English Ministry had changed; there were all sorts of
reasons to believe that the English policy had also changed.
Without assuming towards the new Ministry a hostile atti-
tude (which he has at no period done), M. Guizot would
hare acted very inconsiderably (legerement) if ha had not
kept towards them in a certain reserve.' Even if this re-
serve had not been justified by the recollections connected
with certain names, it would have been commanded by the
position which the representatives of a foreign Government
appear to have assumed. It is a justice due to the journals
which have attacked the Government's policy, that they
have not even taken the trouble of dissembling the source
whence they derived their principal arguments. We know
not whether those to wh)m this apparent connivance is,
perhaps erroneously, imputed, must be rendered responsible .
for it; but surely it was enough to render the reserve, which
was already the French Government's right, likewise a
duty."

On this paragraph we siII make but a short comment.
There is a vast difference between refusing a man your
confidence and, under pretence of admitting him to your
confidence, telling him that which is not the truth. The
man who adopts the first course may perchance be
honest, but he who adopts the last must be dishonest.
All who have read the correspondence will know in
which category to place M. Guizor.
The Gauche and the Centre Gauche are now com-
pletely re-united, and at meetings held on Wednesday
and Thursday, to agree upon the course to be pursued in
the debate on the Address in the Chamber of Deputies,
it was determined to oppose, by all lawful means, the
" opprobious system which, at home and abroad, endan-
gers the prospects of France, and corrupts public mo-
rality."

The French Government steamer Etna was wrecked
at Tenex on the 20th, crew and passengers saved.
Count D'IlAussoNvILLE, the son of the Due DA
BnocuE, has left Paris fur London on a particular
mission.

The food riots still continue, and as a proof of the
serious nature of these disturbances, we may mention
the fact, that the Government have just demanded,
avowedly with a view of preventing the occurrence of
more serious commotions, an additional force of 182
brigades of horse, and 59 of foot gendermerie, and 10,000
men of the line.

The French Three per Cents. were done on Sunday, in the
Passage de l'Opet a, at 78f. 15e.

THE CAPE OF GOOD HOPE.
By the arrival of the ship Essex at Brixham, from
aoreld.

Calcutta and the Cape of Good Hope, we have receivedn
papers from the Cape of Good Hope to the 6th Decem-

and from Graham's Town to the 2d, from which we

Ttlinznes, Daecch.e
most of the Farmerfield cattle had been taken by Kafirs
dining the past night—out of the kraals. A party from
(D
Farmerfield immediately went in pursuit of the marauders,
and the Commandant here sent a party of the Sporting Club,
under Mr. W. Stubbs, also in pursuit of them
Mr. Penny, jun., of Salem, was fired upon by Kafirs as.he
was looking for some oxen near a drift in the Assegai river,
in the neighbourhood of that village. The ball perforated
the brim of his hat, and he escaped without further injury.
Tilunspa.Y.—Report received of the wreck of the Albatross,
a schooner of 20 tons, chartered by gessrs. Cawood, for the
purpose of attempting to land supplies at the Fish River
mouth. We have no full particulars of this disaster. It
appears that after crossing the bar she was steered on shore
by mistake, but that this mischief would have been produc-
tive of no serious accident had not a hurricane arisen on the
following day, and driven the vessel on the rocks. A great
part of the cargo will probably be saved.
FatDAY.—Received news from Colonel Somerset's division.
This officer, it appears, has lately captured 1,800 head of
cattle beyond the Keiskamma, killing thirteen of the enemy
and losing two privates of his own regiment, who were not,,
however, killed in action, but in consequence of some
irregularity of conduct on their part
A train of mule and horse waggons narrowly escaped
falling into the hands of the enemy, while proceeding from
Fort Peddie with supplies for Colonel Somerset's camp.
These waggons were very insufficiently guarded, and when
the convoy arrived at the Keiskamma drift, a large body of
armed Kafirs were seen on the opposite side, who dared them
to advance, and then the waggons were hastily driven back
to Fort Peddie, where they arrived safe. This might have
been a little Burn's Hill affair. The rule of experientia docet
seems without application here.
the Farmerfield people had recovered their cattle near
Blue Krantz, on the road to Bathurst. It appears
that only three Kafirs were seen, two of whom were
shot. . . . We are sorry to learn that two out of three
messengers employed to bring dispatches
• • to his Excellency
from the Government agent in Kreli's country, Mr. W.
Fynn, were shot by a party of burghers as they were cross-
ing the Kei, being taken, it is supposed, for hostile Kafirs.
One man crossed with great difficulty, after concealing him-
self for many hours among t the rushes growing in the river,
and succeeded i h• -8
hisdestination with a part of the
n reac mg
dispatches.
