The Madrid Gazette of the sth contains nothing
of importance, and the other journals are chiefly
occupied in discussing the elections. Several gen-
tlemen of the press have been returned ; and among

Espana, for a district in the province of Vittoria ;
M. Alfaro, principal editor of the Fenix, in the
province of Albacete ; and M. Rascon, proprietor
of the Clamor Publieo, and during many years
one of its principal writers, in Alicante. Colonel
Verdugo, who had obtained some notoriety

The Peninsular Correspondence says :
" A paragraph has gone the round of the papers,
to the effect that a document has lately been dis-
covered in the archives at Seville, which will de-
cide the pending question between France and
Brazil with reference to the limits of Guyana, some
doubt concerning which had been occasioned by
the obscurity in the wording of a clause in the cele-
brated Treaty of Utrecht. The Brazilian empire,
as successor to the rights of Portugal, maintains
that the Vicente Pinzon, mentioned in the above-
mentioned treaty, is the river now called the
Oyapock, while France as firmly contends that it
must be the Carvassapouri. The document alluded
to is said to be so conclusive in favour of the French
claims that a certified copy of it has been, forwarded
to the Tuileries."

The Archbishop of Cologne has ordered prayers
to be offered up that the approaching elections
