FRENCH PAPERS.
(From the Moniteur of Tuesday, Jan. 2.)
" Manato, DEC. 18.—The whole of the Royal Family are in
perfect health.
Several detachments of Portuguese Royalists entered into
Spain last week, in order to raise recruits, and penetrated as far
as Viseu, and other villages of the Sierra, which are' in the juris-
diction of the Captain-General of the province of Seville. As
soon as he was informed of it, he gave the most positive orders
for the full execution of the treaties in force between Spain and
Portugal, and, in consequence, addressed a circular letter to all
the Governors, of the fortresses in his province, to disarm and dis-
perse all the Portuguese emigrants. As soon as the latter were
informed of those orders of the Captain-General, they took flight
aid returned to Portugal.
" DEC. 21.—General Rodil, the hero of Callan, of whose ap
proaching nomination to a high office we have already spoken, is
just appointed second Commandant-General of the Provincial 31i
litia of the Royal Guard, of which the Count de San Roman re-
mains Inspector-General, and first Commandant. M. de San
Roman will especially command the battalions of grenadiers, and
General Rodil the chasseur9.
" The latter, which succeed the grenadiers, whose three years'
service in the capital was expired, have just arrived at Leganes,
Yicalvara, Caraniancheles, and letafe.
" A very important piece of news was communicated to us yes-
terday. Our Government replied a week ago to the last applica-
tion of the English and Portuguese Governments, that it consent-
ed to receive a Charge d'Affaires from Portugal. We must con-
sider this concession as a kind of recognition of the Portuguese
Government by ours. It is, at least, a tacit recognition ; for
what matters it to the relations between two countries whether
their agents are Charges d'Affaires, 'Ministers Plenipotentiary, or
Ambassadors ? In consequence of this arrangement, M. de Casa
Fiore!, our Ambassador at Lisbon, is going to return hither, and
a Charge d'Affaires will be immediately sent to Portugal.
" The Duke de l'lnfantado used to receive the diplomatic body
three times a week, M. Salinon has received it only twice since be
has been in the administration ; and he has just declared,
,that he
can now receive it only on Sundays. His Excellency adds in his
..ircular that if any member of the diplomatic body has any thing
urgent to communicate, that he cannot wait till Sunday, he is re-
quested to inform him of his intended visit the day before. What
is the meaning of this regulation? Is M. Salmon already busy in
making up his accounts ? It is affirmed that M. d'Offalia arrived
at Madrid the day before yesterday, and that be did not come
without being sent for by high authority. We know also, that
M. Sobrado, formerly member of the Council of Castile, to well
known for the exelantatiOn which escaped him at the return to
the Council of most of the members who had been dismissed,
" that he would not sit with Negroes,"—an exclamation
which caused the King, who was justly irritated, to dis-
miss hire and banish him to Grenada. We know, we re-
peat, that M. Sobrado has just arrived in this city, and it has been
generally reported since Tuesday in our Salons, that M. d'Offalia
is going to resume the office of Minister of State, and that the
Department of Grace and Justice will he given to M. Sobrado.
Don Louis Lopez Ballesteros is also to have a successor, who :a net
mentioned. In consequence of these nominations, M. Salmon,
t is said, will have the embassy to Rome, whither M. de Casa
Flores, now Minister at Lisbon, also much wishes to go. The
Count de la Puebla, who was for a time Ambassador in France
last year, has also come forward to obtain this embassy of his
Majesty, These are the reports in the court and city ; they put
all our place-hunters in motion.
" PARIS, JAN. 1.-We have the following accounts from
Madrid, Dec. 26 :
" The Spanish Government has ordered a corps of troops to
be sent to Estremadura and Old Castile : this corps is to be com-
posed of seven regiments of provincial militia, of one regiment of
the Guard, and a reeiment of horse chasseurs, making 7,000 or
13,000 men in all. "These troops will be under the orders of Ge-
neral Rodil, whose command will be independent of that of the
Captains-General of those provinces.'
" Accounts from Lisbon of the 20th of December say—' The
students attempted a movement at Coimbra; but on the first de-
monstration made by the garrison, order was restored.'
" At Almeida the refugees had summoned the Governor to sur-
render the place. When they came to take possession of it, the
garrison made a sally, and put them to the rout.
" They have also been repulsed at Amarante.
" The refugees have not been able to advance beyond the line
of the Tamego ; they have been beaten at all the points where
they have attempted to cross that river.
" The corps of the Marquis de Chaves is still at Chaves ; that
of the Viscount de Montalegre at Villa Real; and that of Silveira
in the environs of Braganca.

" ST. PETERSBURCIf, DEC. 13.—The Post-office has just
published a list of the foreign periodical publications which are
not to be admitted into the Russian Empire in 1827. (Only
-the names of eight German literary journals are mentioned in the
Etaile.)
" 'The sentence passed by the Council of War at Wilna, on
occasion of the peasants of Sabelli, who had revolted against their
=aster, induced the Grand Duke Constantine to ask the Minister
of Justice whether the ordinance proclaiming pardon and amnesty
of the 14th of September last, was not to be applied to these pea-
