A considerable sensation has been excited in the
City, by an eminent Mercantile 'louse having told
the holders of Bills, drawn on it by. the Spanish Go-.
,vetament, ato present them when due." This ex-
'trpordinary conduct, which is variously accounted
fat' has done a serious injury to the credit of the
Spanish Government. We forbear further comments,
evicting that the House in question will give some
eittanation of its conduct.

• Vienna Papers, of the sth February, reached town
. this morning. The Austrian Observer, the official
Journal of the Austrian Government, contains along
tit de against those Journalists who predict a gene-
ral.wat in Europe from the unjust attack of France
non Spain. It is extremely angry at those Jour-
nals which announce broken credit, interrupted
commerce, and destruction of prosperity, as con-
sequences of 'war ; and it is so evidently alarmed
at the apprehensions generally excited that it seeks
to allay them, by declaring u that the language
which the Allied Powers held at Madrid was not
• a •declaration of war, and the recall of a mis-
sion not an act of hostility." Coupling this with
the tardy execution of the French Government, of
the Decrees of the Holy Alliance, we think there is
.reason•to believe that the Depots begin to be terrified,
and would willingly retreat from the contest they
have begun with the People sf Eutope. The Ger-
man Papers contain no other news.

Madrid Papers to the 6th and 7th-instant bare
arrived, and they contain accounts of the very
portant proceedings which took place in the Cortes
on the French KING'S Speech being officially commu-
nicated to that Assembly. We are happy to observe,
though it is nothing more than might have been ex-
pected from the heroic Spaniards—the gallant de-
fenders of their freedom against a far mightier arm
than now assails them, and 'with a cause certainly not
less just and sacred than at present—that the enthu-
siasm of some of the Members of the Cortes even
outran the zeal of the Government. ks demand for
supplies of money and men was cheerfully grantei ;
and it is evident that the exertions of the Government
will be powerfully seconded by the patriotism of the
People and their Representatives. M. CANGA eAR-
GLIELLES, who, it must be recollected,' is the head
of the moderate party, who is disposed to avoid all
extrenies, ,who has frequently tempered by his elo-
quence the hot and fiery zeal of the more ardent of
the Deputies, was on this occasion the foremost in
declaring for energetic measures. The speech
which he delivered, his allusions to the GOD of
St. Louis, and to the capture of FRANCIS the First,
with the use of several historical illustrations, made
a powerful impression on the Assembly, and is well
calculated to excite in the Spaniards the highest
degree of enthusiasm. Firm and undaunted as they
now sheer themselves, we hope that this exhibition
of their unanimity and zeal will have such an effect
on old Loma as to prevent him from engaging in the
war ; and 'we are quite sure that, with such disposi-
tioni on their part, it can only end in his disgrace,
and the ruin of his family.
The Cortes have declared that the Spaniards are
not opposed to the French Nation, but to the faction
which surrounds and usurps the powers of the French
