London, England, 1846-10-14 00:00:00

about Don ENRIQUE is not true, for at the time of
the confl2renecs of E:t, h,,d
broken with the constitutional party in Spain
(called constitutional, we presume, ut lucus a non
lucendo). But it is useless to unravel further
this tangled skein, in which the slightest possible in..
fusion of truth is made to colour oceans of falsehood.
There is, however, one portion of this article which is
worthy of being remembered :—"France has given
England notice that henceforth she will hold herself
free to act as may seem most conducive to her in-
terests." Be it so ; England then will do the same.
In commenting on the article in the Prexse of the
day preceding, in which that organ of the Tuileries
took upon itself to order Queen VICTORIA to choose
for Ministers Tories who would not object to see a
grandson of Louis PHILIPPE on the throne of Spain,
the National says—

" We are not under the necessity of remarking upon
an antagonivnie which expresses itself in terms so violent.
Between the Whigs and Louis XIV. it was war, but in
the historical events referred to by that paper, it omitted
to cite the simple dates which corroborate the great
guarantees of the treaty of peace signed at Utrecht.
The date of that treaty is 1713 ; Louis XIV. died in
1715. In 1719 the war broke out again. Perhaps the
Presse ought to have added that the principal author of
this treaty (Bolingbroke) was compelled to fly to France
to escape from the justice which threatened him in Eng-
land, and which accused his colleague, Lord Oxford, of
high treason. All these recollections are of an irritating
nature, and we can scarcely understand the imprudence
which rouses them at a moment when tho Whigs are
more firm than ever."

The KING has pardoned upwards of one hundred
persons on the occasion of the marriage of the Due
DE MONTPENSIER. Among them are five of the ac-
complices Of QUENISSET.

The Epoque contradicts the statement which ap-
peared in the papers of the day preceding, that a
revolt had broken out in the 15th regiment of Light
Infantry, stationed in Algeria.

The price of flour fell on Saturday nearly 2f. per
metrical quintal, at the halle of Paris.:
The Constitutionnel says—
" The inquiries ordered by the Minister of Commerce
for the purpose of ascertaining the produce of the crops
in the departments are now terminated. The Prefects
have addressed to the Minister detailed reports, which
are said to leave no doubt as to the extent of the evil.
The greatest part of the central departments, and many
of the western, have sadly suffered, and the working
classes will be left without resources during the rigorous
season, if the Government does not devise means of re-
lieving them. The Minister of Commerce, it appears,
has concerted measures with his colleagues of the de-
partments of the Interior and Public Works. which, it
is hoped, will have the effect of reassuring the popula-
tion. Several Deputies have recommended the Admi-
nistration to give labour to the people, and open cha-
ritable establishments, in which the old an infirm, unable
to earn their bread, should be admitted during the
winter. The Government, we are informed, has accerleil
to those demands, and approved various works proposed
by the lenal authorities."
The Moniteur contains the following telegraphic
dispatch, dated Marseilles, 10th instant.—

" Therapia, St. 28.
" Reschid Paella is appointed Grand Vizier. Ali
Effendi succeeds Reschid Pacha as Minister for Foreign
Affairs."

The sale of railway shares to-day, at Messrs. Lomond
and Co.'s, went off better. East Indians improved, and
a better tone existed. Prices are not looked at as yet
firm, s_pite of a little improvement. The following are a

There are very general doubts entertained in the City
as to the authenticity of the news received, or said to be
received, via Havre and Paris, of a treaty of peace hav-
ing been signed between the United States and Mexico.
However, a temporary purpose has been served by the
advance in the price of Mexican Bonds. Had such
an important event really occurred, it is con-
sidered very improbable that the intelligence
would have come by such a route. It Reed hardly be
remarked, that the extremest anxiety is expressed here
to have the fact represented fully confirmed.
It is hardly a useful occupation of space, to enter at
present upon the question of the policy of the Mexican
Government to change their Charge d'Affaires cr their
provincial agents here. It is true Mr. Murphy
is an able and intelligent man, courteous at
all times ; but still with alterations at the
seat of the Government of the Republic, variations in
agents may be looked for. The Mexican Ministers
have played so many pranks to the injury of the foreign
creditors of the republic, that it were a vain hope to
anticipate much fixity of purpose, as the mere quibbles
can be raised the more delay is obtained in paying past,
and rapidly increasing accumulations of obligatior.s.
In the private advises received from New Zealand this
morning there is very little information beyond that
already made public. There was an increasing demand
for labourers. Money was scarce.
The payment of the half-yearly dividends has not yet
had any sensible influence upon the rate of interest.
Exchequer-bills have declined a trifle to-day. Consols
for Account remain at about 951, and for private
transfer at 95 1. Some bargains have been made in
India Bonds at 255. premium, in Bank Stock at 206,
and in the New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. at a, fall
to 96, ex dividend.
There has not been a single bargain reported in
Spanish Stocks up to this hour, nor for Portuguese.
Mexican Five per Cents. have fallen to 23f 41 ; Brazilian
Bonds are at 854; Grenada at 21; Venezuela at 411 ;
I
and Dutch Four per Cent. Certificates at 91.1
