Monsieur le Viscomte—Yesterday, at 6 o'clock in the after-

Chancery of the Minister for Foreign Affairs, a letter addressed
to your Excellency, in order to protest against the delay of funds
belonging to particular Spaniards which are sequestrated by or-
der of his Excellency the Minister of Finance. To-day, at the
same hour, I received an invitation from the Prefecture of Po-
lice to wait upon him immediately. 'Whatever difficulty I may
have in believing that this can be the answer to my protest, I
shall attend upon him.
I pray your Excellency to accept the assurance of the high
consideration with which 1 have the honour to be, your Excel-
lency's very humble and obedient servant,

The Chevalier de Machado, Secretary, &c.
Monsieur le Viscomte,—lt is by the police that the French
Government signify to me that I am to quit France, and
especially Paris, in 24 hours, the second day after my remittance
of a protest, solely and exclusively on behalf of the interests of
certain Spaniards. This object compelled my stay in Paris.
It rentals for me to pray that your Excellency will send me
the usual passports .for London, including one or two for my
domestics.
I beseech your Excellency to accept the assurance of the high
consideration with Which I have the honour to be, /ice.

P. S. 31. de Machado is requested to fix the number and
make known the names of the persons whom he would take
with him.

(Cory. No. 7.)
Monsieur—l have to-day received the letter which you re-
mittted to M. de Itauzan, and that which you have done me
the honour to write to me. The orders which you may have
received from the Prefecture of Police are not an answer to the
first of these letters. Ido not return my answers through any
person. I shall transmit to M. the Minister of Finance the
protest which you addressed to me against the measure which
has been taken by him. On reading the letter from M. de San
Miguel, it has been written about threemontlis, and in circum-
stances so different that I cannot suppose he will expect to re-
ceive any answer. I have the honour to be, Monsieur, your
very humble and very obedient servant,
Paris, May 11. 'CIIATEAUBRIAND.

jects, creditors of France, nor upon the step taken by the
police twenty-four hours afterwards towards an agent in the
employ of the Government of his Catholic Majesty, who has
honourably fulfilled his public functions in France during
tight years past.
It does not belong to me to diccuss the motives which may
have led your Excellency to believe that you would dispense
with giving an answer to the letter of his Excellency the 31ini-
titer of State of his Catholic Majesty.
I confine myself strictly to demanding of your Excellency,
if I am to conform to the peremptory term fixed by the police
for iny departure, or to watt the result of the communication
which your Excellency kindly informed me you had made of
my protest to his Excellency the Minister of Finance.
I entreat your Excellency to receive this new assurance of
the high consideration with which I have the honour to be, &c.

(Corr.—No. 9.)
To his Excellency M. le Viscomte de Chateaubriand,
M le Viscomte,—The passports which 1 required, and which
your Excellency had the complaisance to send me yesterday,
being already inspected by tie competent authorities, 1 sin
about to proceed for London, since the peremptory term fixed
by the police has expired.
I have not received the answer of your Excellency to the
letter which I had the honour to address to you yesterday,
though it appeared to me that the contents might deserve one.
However, I hope still, that the for of your Excellency will
do justice to my protest of the oth inst.
But if, contrary to my hopes, that should not be the case, I
ratify the contents of my protest before mentioned, in the
manner as if it were inserted here word for word, and I protest
solemnly against the assumed right, for all the injury tense
ie!)
may result to the Spanish creditors of France, in conseque
of the sequestration put by the French Government upon pro-
perty secure in its nature, its origin, and the circumstances
which created it. .It only remains that I renew to your Ex.
celleney the assurances of the high consideration with which I
have the honour to be.
