►SITTING OF JAN. 22.

The discussion on the Address;;;resumed to-day.
M. Bechard, in opposing the Address, said that he was
equally an enemy to the line of policy pursued by the
present Ministry and to that professed by the party of
M. Thiers, neither of which deserved the name of a na-
tional policy, as understood by the party of which he
was a member. The commercial interests of the coun-
try were, he considered, sacrificed to the English alliance.
M. Dupin, sen., in alluding to the questions of Morocco
and Otaheite, stated his opinion that on neither of those
points had the dignity of the country been properly pro-
tected. He condemned the Ministry for not obtaining
an indemnity from the Emperor of Morocco for the ex-
penses of the war, and accused them of sullying the
honour of France by the haste in which the
treaty had been ratified. The conduct of the
Government at Otaheite, he maintained, was also
dishonourable to France as their flag should never
have been withdrawn. If the agents of the Govern-
ment had acted right in expelling Pritchard from
the island, what cause was there for blaming them, and
granting an indemnity? This could only have been
done by way of a peace-offering to England, and he
trusted the Chamber would never give its sanction.
With regard to the measure which the Government had
declared it had adopted of a mixed commission to seek
means to obviate the necessity for the right of search, he
thought the idea perfectly illusory. The measure of a
mixed commission had been designated by the Minister
as a grand pas ; in his (M. Thipin's) opinion it was a
faux pas. He was an advocate of peace, but he would
not that everything should be conceded to one ally, and
refused to another. His motto was, each for himself,
and each at home. He preferred it to an alliance with
England, if it was to be paid for at the high price
placed on it.
After brief speeches from M. Herbert and others, the
Chamber divided on the first and main paragraph, when
Ministers had a majority of 28.

HARRY LORREQUER'S NEW WORK.--The ad-
mirer's of Mr. Lever's productions will be glad to hear
that a cheap edition of " Arthur O'Leary" has just been
published, printed uniformly with the author's other
works, in one volume Bvo., price only 12s. bound, and
containing all the illustrations by George Cruikshank.
" A work from the graphic pen of Harry Lorrequer,
illustrated by George Cruikshank (observes the John
Bull) carries with. it such a recommendation as may.

LAW CUANGES.—We have reason to believe that
Mr. Platt, Q.C., will be the new judge ; but his appoint-
ment is deferred until some other changes which arc in
contemplation shall be arranged. Mr. Horace Twiss is,
we understand, to be the new Commissioner of Bank-
rupts ; and Mr. Sergeant Atcherley, it is said, will suc-
ceed Mr. Twiss as Vice-Chancellor of the Duchy of
Lancaster.—Evening paper.
Lord Sandon had an interview with Sir Robert

THE EARL OP ABERDEEN Ant
•LORD RANELAGH.-
(From a pamphlet entitled _Legal Orclite 'and Qmstiiim
trosal Itiyits. By Viscount Eanelagh). `J
DON CARLOS AND THE QUEEN OF SPAIN.

LORD RANELAGH TO LORD ABERDEEN.

3, Bolton-row, March 15,-1t44.
My Lord,—May 'request the favour of an interview at
your earliest convenience, being the bearer of a letter
from his Royal Highness the Infante Don Carlos, which
I am instructed to place in your Lordship's own handi,
and which is of the highest importance to the future
tranquillity of Spain ?—I have the honour to be, my
Lord, your Lurdship's most obedient servant,

RANELAGII.

In consequence of this note I had two interviews with
Lord Aberdeen, the result of which will be found in,the
letters following :
LORD RANELACH TO LORD ABERDEEN.

a 1844.
My Lord,—On the 17th of MarchM las 3 t 26 I, had the
honour of submitting to your Lordship, on the part of
Don Carlos, certain propositions with which I had been
intrusted by that Prince.
Your Lordship admitted the iirpoi tance of the pro-
posals, and I had the satisfaction of being assured that
they should be referred to Madrid, whence an answer
might be expected in ten or twelve days. On the 17th
of April following I had received no communication from
your Lordship, and I again solicited an interview. I
had the honour of attending your appointment accord-
ingly on the 19th, when you postponed your decision
until the arrival of a messenger from Madrid, expected
on the Wednesday or Thursday following.
On the ht of May, being still without your Lord-
ship's commands, I informed you by my note of that
date that I was under engagements to leave London for
Bourges in two days, and begged a few minutes' inter-
view before starting.
To that note I received no reply.
On-the evening of the 2d I called at the Foreign-offiCe,
where I learned from your message that your Lordship
was engaged, but that you might possibly see rue on
your return from the House of Lords. I replied that,
being myself engaged, I could not return on that possi-
bility ; and, having deferred my departure as long as
possible, I started the next evening (the 3d inst.) for
Bourges, without any communication a hatever from your
Lordship. - •
- I have ventured to recal these circumstances. I now
take the liberty of asking you for a positive answer.
I have the honour, &c.
RANELAGH.
