THE SPANISH MARRIAGES.
TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

- -
Ma. EDITOR,—Your observations generally upon the
scandalous intrigues by which the Montpensier marriage
tvis brought about are so perfectly just and conclusive that
it might appear that scarcely anything could be added to
them. There is, however, one point that seems not to have
been touched upon by yourself or any of yotn- contemporaries.
It is this—that even the Queen's having Issue would not re-
move the ohjectioni to marriage. The treaty of Utrecht,
nich expressly excludes both branches of the house of
Loarbon, was intended to guard against, not the probability,
I,llt the possibility. of the union of the crowns of France and
Spelri ou the aims head.
.Naw, admitting that the Queen should have children,
fright
ttt,ty not all die in her lifetime? and have we not had
". La instance of this in our own Queen Anne, who,
“:though she had by. prince
Sherie George of Denmark not less than
:drtcen children,
y
line of the Stuart f survived them all ; thus ending
u'Jdient ervant,
anuly.—l remain, Mr. Editor, your
s
