INTERCEPTED LETTERS OF D. MIGUEL ARANZA) MINISTER
OF FOREIGN AFFAIRS.
Paris, May 22, 1810.
Most Excellent Sir—l am informed by M. Caille,
a French Officer, who was formerly employed in the
service of Spain, afterwards passed to that of Portu-
gal, and now is with our ancient King, D. Carlos IV.
under the name of First Equerry, that that Prince
has, in his misfortunes, obtained a great melioration,
which has enabled him amply to provide himself with
every thing. Caille says, that he lives quiet and con-
tent in his private life ; but that the Queen, Maria
Louisa, is not in the same disposition; that she con-
tinually gives sufficient marks of her agitation and
discontent, with a desire of expence as formerly.—
They receive every month 200,000 livres, which are
very punctually paid—with this money, they have
sufficient to maintain themselves according to their
rank.
His Majesty the Emperor is expected tomorrow in
this capital.
To his Excellency Seign. el Duque de Santa Fe.
11.—TO THE SAME.
Paris, lune 16, 1810.
Most Excellent Sir—The people in Holland are
very discontented and disposed to revolt ; it is not
feared, however, that they will attempt any thing,
because there is every where a sufficient number of
French troops to subdue them. It is said that the
Dutch have offered 14 millions of livres, that the co-
lonial produce might not be confiscated, and taken
away to Antwerp, although it has been represented
that these did belong to the Dutch and the French.
It is believed that the transport of the said effects, al-
ready embarked, in a great part, has been, for this
reason, suspended.
Napoleon had before confiscated the colonial pro-
duce which are in Holland, whomsoever they might
belong to ; he has decreed the bankruptcy, appro-
priating to himself the two third parts of the Public
Stocks of that nation, stripped her of her marine, and
• finally has united her to the French Empire, depriv-
ing her of the shadow which was left her of inde-
pendence ; that is to say, he has regenerated her after
. his way.
It is not spoken for the present of the voyage of
the Emperor to Italy, and although the report has
been current that he would soon set off for Marrac,
and that various arrangements had been settled for it,
it is assured for the present that he will not go unless
the future successes in Spain require it.
To the Duke of Santa Fe.
111.—..T0 THE SAME.
Paris, June 19, 1811.
Most Excellent Sir—The time is at length arrived
when I have it in my power to write to your Excel-
lency on subjects which directly concern us. The day
before yesterday I had a long conversation with the
Duke of Cadore, Minister fur Foreign Affairs, who
had Oven me to understand at a former period, that
he washed to communicate to me some matters by the
Emperor's order. I shall relate the heads of this con-
ference in which many subjects were handled, and all
of importance.
The Minister told me that his Imperial Majesty
cannot send more money to Spain, and that it is ne-
cessary that kingdom should provide for the subsist-
o ence and expences of its army ; that he has done
enough in having employed 400,000 men in the re-
duction of Spain ; that France has exhausted its
Treasury, having sent there two hundred millions of
livres since the commencement of the war ; that our
Government has not availed itself of the resources
which the country offers by the collection of funds ;
that contributions should have been raised in Anda-
lusia, particularly Seville and Malaga, and also in
Murcia ; that his Majesty had imposed a contribu-
tion of 6,000,000 of Lyres on the town of Lerida ;
(I am not certain whether it was this or a greater sum
he mentioned to me), that the English, property found
in Seville should have been confiscated • and his Im-
perial Majesty is of opinion that this of Seville alone
might Have amounted to forty millions of livres ; that
the plate of the churches and convents should have
been taken possession of ; that in Spain there must
necessarily be a vast quantity of money in circulation
which has been introduced by the French and Eng-
lish, together with what had arrived from America;
that the Emperor has always made war by extracting
from the conquered countries the subsistence and ex-
pences of his armies ; that had he not been obliged
to employ so many troops in the reduction of Spain,
he might have dismissed many of them, and thus
have avoided the expences they occasion ; that the
funds of' our Treasury have not been employed in the
manner they should have been, that is to say, the
payment of the troops employed in conquering 'and
tranquillizing the kingdom ; that there have been
plapy pompous, estravagant, and nundossary .ex-
