PAWN, OCT., 7.—A Journal, which is supposed to be writ.
ten untier;the influence of a Minister, said yesterday, that " the
news was spread during the day that the King of Spain was
free ; we are authorised to declare that it was inserted In the

.crening papers by mistake."
is difficult to conceive how mistakes of this nature could
'have been committed ; and the Journalist might be asked who
nuthorised, him to publish the contradietiim ; for, if there was

in fact an error, is not that as much as to day the first dispatcl

was not received ? It is however certain, that it reached the
Corernrnent, for it appeared yesterday in thiofficial Journal.
If we ate correctly informed, immediately after the arrival of
the first dispatch, It was found necessary to send couriers into
toe departthents, and perhaps to Foreign Courts, and now then

'other couriers must be sent to contradict the first.

We do not pretend to draw any conclusion froin theie oh-
!:ervations ; 'we may, however, ..ask how the Elbik, whO could
have received the dispatch only from, the Minister, could have
'given two dittliient versions ? We might also remark, that this
celebrated dlspateh did not annoUnce that the,King of Spain
'had repaired to head-quarters, but only that he was to repair
there on the following clay. There wan, therefore, still coons
!Or doubt as to the .arrival of Ferdinand ; and it appears to us
that a somewhat indiscreet zeal has been shewn, in hiving pub-
licity to news of this importance, when it may. not be realised,
.and which, in fact,i was contradictedsome hours after. a ,

.(` Fortunately this premature publication took place on Sun.
,day, when the Exchange was closed, and but for this circum-
stance it might have produced much mischief, anti added to
the calamities which haVe reduced so many families to poverty
youLdespair.
In ruadht the second dispatch again, we observe the wortls,
" the negoeiations are broken ofil". There have been negocia-
diens then. It will be remembered, however, that all the Ml-
nigerhil Journals, and particularly. the Treasury Journal, have
repeated twenty thnes that no negotiations had been entered
and that it was hoped we never should negociate with
the (fortes.;

However this may be, it seems certain that we 'are still
'obliged to wait till the force of arms brings on a denouement,
which policy, agreeing with Immunity, would have preferred
'to he indebted for to the peaceable way of negodatioris.
