' In addition to what is stated above, there is little
of importance to be found in the Sittings of the
Cones. On New-year's Jay, as part of the grand,
civic ceremony in commemoration of the transactions
of the 7th of July, the Ayuntamiento, sired different
Corporations and Officers of the city of Madrid, were
admitted to the bar of the Cortes. The President ad-
dressed them in approbation of to patriotic efforts
they had made for the cause of liberty at that memo-
rable crisis. The Political Chief, Don Juan Palarea,
and the Commandant of the District, Don Demetrio
O'Dali, made speeches in reply. The Decree for
granting honours to the persons who assisted in sup-
pressing the mutiny of the Guards (ot which an ac-
count was given when it was under discussion in the
is
Cortes) was officially published on the same day.

PRIVATE CORRESPONDENCE,

~ PARTS, JANUARY 11.
ig Two points connected with Spanish affairs are
much talked of here—the Duke of San Lorenzo not
being invited to M. Pozzo de Borgo's diplomatic
dinner ; and the process against Hardouin and Rouge-
mont
for the humbug loan' to the Rebel Regency of
Urge!. As to the latter, I chink I may predict that
it will end in nothing; for I know that every quibble
of law will be seconded by every rut and influence of
power to nullify the proceedings. We shall see. As
to the slight offered by Russia to Spain in the person of
one Ambassador, and 'ay the agency of the other, what
does it signify ? let me ask. When insult precedes in-
ory it may be important, but not so when it follows it.
1 leave that to the logicians ; and if the Duke's not
dining with M. Pozzo de Bongo is a proof of Russian
liostility to Spain, we must suppose by analogy that
his cutting Sir Charles Stuart's mutton, a day or two
before, is decisive of the friendship of England.—
,Ah, there's the rub ! Assure Spain on that point, and
all is_well. Quiet •the apprehensions• of every lover
.of.liberty with regard to the policy of yourMinisten.
:Convince us that a generous and noble sympathy is
excited in the. Cabinet as well as in the Natioti—and
that the* ghoit Of Castlereagh is not beginning• to
stalk in the Council-rooM."
2rra4cr oi, Astortia Lama OP THE SAME DATE.
4 To the deep-reit-40f all the fair hostesses who
'Hue by the profits of di& soirEes, (and there are
.rriany)d,to the eonfusfeas of the tankers ides Salome)
--to the stnioas Joss of all the proprietors of hotels
.and .Apartemens darnie in the North of Paris (which,
be it known to you, is the west end); immense num-
bers of your wise and patriotic countrymen are on
,the wing—(although all pretty well plucked). Some
return as poor as French economy, the griping of
mercenary French Women, could make them, assisted
as they were by those favoured children of this most
Christian liovernment--Ahe bankers of the Rouged
, Noir,. Roulette and Hazard tables. Others return to
. fell old timber, or to squeeze new wax'—all to
curse their unlucky stars for having led them on
.to
Paris. In short, it has been a disastrous campaign,
~ Most Christian! How deserving of this appella-
tion is :hat Monarch, who, on the birth-day of the
liansaman, directed the drawing of the Paris Lot-
tery, by which hundreds of his subjects
.must
have been made wretched! Who, on last Sun-
day, at the very hour when 4 the Reliques of
Saint Genevieve were exposed to the view of the
faithful, on the altar of that magnificent church
which bears her name,'—at. the very hour when
4 the King heard Mass in his apartments'—at the
very moment when g' the Royal Family connnuni-
caged in the Chapel Royal,'—and at the same instant
when i the officiating Prelate invoked the blessings,
of Heaven on the lather of his People !"--at that
very crisis, not only was the Paris Lottery agil.n.
drawn, but the Police of the said Monarch, hy, i
paternal command, threw open the doors of all4* '-
gaming-houses in Paris! For what motire?y4
:
base lucre.
" You ask what is all- this to us?—A Vial deal.:
By the means of this infamous coalition, between jbe
Government and the keepers of those hells,haruiri4
of British subjects are yearly.ruitted—millions of 11,i1=
tish money yearly lost. $y- object in stating thqe
facts, so dishonourable, so disgraiefil to in Go-.
vernment, is to shame it into a dissOlutiou ot'the in•
famous partnership that subsists between 'Wand. the
bankers of the hells. In the same instant money is
disbursed for re-edifying Churches; and a proportion
of the iniquitous profits of the gamin tables passes
into the Royal treasury! What vretcned mockery !
,I We are all confident that liar will take place in
March. The emissaries of a certain party are active
en the froVtier, and it 'will not be their fault shoald'
;lie territory of France remain inviujita. Nobody,
believes the story of the murders conitnitterl by;
the Spanish Constitutional troops on French soil,
which you had last night in the 444 and whichwas, , as' is his custom,' produced upoti ,the Ex=
change early in the evening by. a swam perskin..
, It is a weak invention of the enemy: . War is.xle-
termined do, and every effort is making to produce
incidents likely to give it a popular turn. Nothing.
could be better imagined for the purpose, than the
Violation of i the sacred tenitory,! as. Napoleon used
to call it. French egotism is well known, but the
Spaniards will not fall into the snare. It is believed ,
by every body, and denied .by none, that General
Lagairde 'is recalled from Paris. If so—cost jini.
4, I have only time to add, that an attempt tri-
thange the law relative to the Rectuitalent of the,
!.is my -isr.49 be made neat Session. Instead of draw-

case of a fall of the Funds during the period, they are to pay
five per cent. more, which makes a difference of seven per cent.
under the price of Stocks.. This accommodation, it is thought,
will cause the Funds to ripe, owing to the Market being greatly

The French Papers of Sunday have reached us by .
the ordinary conveyance. The only articles of any
importance they contain will be found in another
.column. The Ultra Journals still assert that the
French territory hai been violated by a column of
the Constitetional Army, who, with some Revenue •
Officers and Militiamen, are represented as having
surprised the village of Valcarios, and massacred
some wounded soldiers of the Army of the Faith, in
oe hospital there. ThellePuty Mayor of Aldudes
'has been suspended from his functions, for having
famished the Spanish detachment- with, a guide—a
bad sign this for France, when her Public Function- ...'
aries thus exhibit their partialities for a cause which
the-Ooverntnent cOsidemni.: This affair has, how., •

Infect we can have the reply of the Spanish Nation, -

which it will be conveyed, to the Notes of France
and the three Sovereigns. That the answer will be ,
temperate but firm, we are persuaded. It will, we
doubt not, shew that while Spain wishes to avoid
war, she does-not fear it. ' - •
There are some who think that the Note—the
audacious. Note of the Holy Allies to Spain—mast .
be followed by a declaration of war. It argues great
ignorance of-the parties to suppose this as a necessary
consequence; for the Emperors of At/STRIA and
RUSSIA, and the King of PRUSSIA, 4$ can turn and
