PARIS, AP :IL

The Proclamation of the Spanish Junta produvs
a great sensaticn. Much anxiety is expressed to know
positively ss hether M. Martignac has approved this
Proclamation, which goes so much farther than that
addressed to the Spaniards by his Royal Highness
the Duke of Angouienie. Is the Junta recognised
by the French Ministers as the real, the only Spanish
Government? And in that case is it with it that ar-
rangements can be made for the settlement of the
differences between the two Powers?
The Junta declares positively, that everything of
Government or of Administration that has been done
in Spain since the day when the King accepted
the Constitution of Cadiz, arc null, and ought to be
rer,arded as void from die beginning. Let us see
what consequences such a declaration may have, not
only as respects Spain, but even Europe ; for the
Government of the King of Spain has concluded
Treaties with foreign Powers, has contracted Loans
on every Exchange; and, lastly, the Ambassadors
Of England and the United States, and Consuls of a
number of Powers, still reside near the seat of the
Constitutional Government.

May it not be regarded as an act of direct hostility
towards these Powers, to signify to them that they
have agents residing with a Government, all the acts
of which are null ?

It is said that the English Government has made
some observations on this Proclamation. It appears.
to us so strange, and so carable of prolonging a war,
which every good citizen must wish to see brought
to a speedy determination, that we know not what to
think of it. What astonishes us is, that such a Pro-
clamation should have been inserted in the Aloniteur
without any reflection.—Constitutionnel.
The Bourdeauz Indicateur announces the appear-
ance at the mouth of the Garonne of several Spanish
corsairs. The Number which gives this news has
been seized.

Letters from Perpignan state that Sieur Cugnet de
Montarlot has been detained in the fort of Rosas, on
a charge of corresponding wit! the enemy.
