SOLEIII QUIS DICERE FAISUM AUDEAT 2

LONDON,
FRIDAY, JANUARY 2, 1824.

In our preceding columns we have given ex-
sacts from the French Papers received since our

,ast. 'rue Bayonne news, as well as that con
tained in our Private Correspondence from Bit

bao, fully confirms all the material features of
the private intelligence recently given in THE
SUN, relative to the frightful state of Spain, and
to the situation of impoverishment and perplexity
in which the Government is plunged at Madrid.
It seems now to be thought that FERDINAND

will make the remonstrances and the earnes

solicitations of the Servile: a pretext for brat

fying his own personal and vindictive feelings,
and that the long-expected and promised am-
nesty will bo altogether withheld. Be this as it
may, there is now little doubt that even if a pro-
clamation of grace should eventually make its

appearance, it will he clogged with so many ex-
ceptions and distinctions as in reality to consign
every individual to exile or the gibbet who is
personally or politically obnoxious to the King
and to the fanatics by whom he is supported.
The Council of State, we have been told, is em-

barrassed by capitulations which eould only pre-
sent obstructions to the career of proscription ;
and it is not difficult, therefore, to anticipate the
kind of mercy of which the unfortunate vic-
tims of Spanish patriotism are doomed to be
tha objects. The most important political intern-

Bence contained in these Papers, is the Madrid
article which we have extracted from the Moni-
teur, and which seems to us to be intended to
prepare the European public for the abandon-

ment, by France and Spain, of their almost hope-
less projects against South America, and also,
notwithstanding the obstinacy with which the
claims of the holders of Spanish Bonds have
hitherto been rejected, for the eventual acknow-
ledgment of the debts contracted by the Con-
stitutional Government. The article to which we
allude says, that the Spanish Ministry" seems to
relax in its preparations against the Independents
of the Colonies," not only because it is " obliged
to give its whole attention to the affairs of the Pe-
ninsula," but because " some persons pretend that
some answers fromForeignCabinets are expected be-
fore our operations beyond the ocean are concerted!'
And again :—" There is a report that the loaf 5
of the Cortes will be recognized, with some mo-
difications. Their recognition is deemed indispen-
sable to the maintenance of our credit." These
brief sentences are no less satisfactory thou
they are concise ; and they afford a gratifying
gleam of returning moderation and good sense
in the Councils of Paris and Madrid. The hopes
which they are calculated to excite, are in some
measure strengthened by the contents of private
letters received this morning from Paris, which
assert that the French Ministry feel conscious
of their strength,—that the influence of Russia
in the Cabinet and in the Court is rapidly de-
clining,—that on the other hand, the Ambassador
of England appears to be in the ascendancy,—and
that it is believed that France is now sincerely
desirous of co-operating with Great Britain for
the preservation of the future tranquillity of
Europe. Most happy shall we be if these auspi-
