SPAIN.

ALADttin, Nov. Majesty's character
begins to unfold itself. He does many acts of
grace and justice, in the very face of Ministers
who attempt to amuse or oppose his will ; for in-,
stance, thr house of Hawrie, the great •wine-mer-
chants at Xeres, bad suffered severely during the
Ftencii influence in this country, and were en-
gaged in a law suit with sonic persons who had
great influence with a 'certain Minister; an ap-
peal had been made, and a favourable decree
given .by the King to the House of Hawrie;
which was distorted and quibbled at by tlie
ulster, and who sedn after told a principal of the
house of Hawrie, that he would arrange himself
cvado en tnano (sword in hand) agaiNst their
ptetetvions to the King'S decision,--n second ap-
peal-was made toltis Majesty, and the Minister's
assertion whispered in the roynl ear ; the King
instantly repeated his command, .and made the
Z‘linister (although it %.s.4s not dispatch-day for
Iris dvaitinent) transact the' business, and a
Couritr Extraordinary was sent riff to Xeres. • •
