According .to the accounts from Spain re-
cently received in France, that Country is in
a very critical state, as we have before men-
tioned, from our own private information. It is
well known that the Spaniards have always been
vary loyal, and they conceive CHARLES'S abdication
to have been an involuntary measure. They are not
cordially attached to FERDINAND, whom they con•
tier, in fact, as .an Usurper, but to whom they
would be faithful, if be bad reached the Throne
in regular succession. It is thought that he will
he obliged to abdicate in his turn. Some \re-
ports assert that he has actually reached Bayonne,
and is going to reside at St. Germain's, the,
re-
treat of our JAMES 11. That -he will be induced
to resign the Throne is deemed probakle, for it
-is argued that no people, who have once tasted
freedom, will ever submit to the, infamOus Inqui-
sition and the rule of a bigoted and criminal
Priesthood. Yet such, marty of the leading people
say, is the reward of the Patriots who sacrificed
a:1 to preserwe their Country from-the usurpation
of JOSEPH BLIONAPARTE. Matters are really conv•

iug to a crisis with that country, Awl re4t:lt
will most probably be highly favourable to the
cause of the South American Revolters.
