the Russians separated from their stores, which had heel'
carried out to sea, were compelled to commence a disasi.
trous retreat through a country consisting entirely of
mountain forest and defile. With the exceptiOn of two
thousand who escaped to Anapa, the whole of the thirty

We have liadrid Papers of the 18th .inst."
SALVANDY, the French Ambassador, and the
Spanish Government were not on the best
terms. His Excellency, before delivering his
credentials to the REGENT, demanded a. prig
vate audience with the Young Qu"sl.:
This was refused on two grounds Fiestt:
because the Spanish Government could
not recognise him qs an Ambassador, before p'e.:!:
seating his credentials, and, again because the
QUEEN, being a minor, could only be seen in the;
presence of her guardians. M. SALVANDY talk"'

Passports,
which to his no small chagrin were at once °t--
fered him by the Foreign Minister.
The Funds were not quite so active on the 18th•
The Fives closed at 3:24 for cash, and 331 at 6o
days.

in France. Even the Debats staggers under
while essaying a sort of lame apology for the
Peers. Saturday
