1t has been inferred from the extraordinary
powers thus conferred on person whose orr.
gin is obscure, and who is seheld with much
jealousy by the ancient nobility of Spain that
more important measure is in agitation, and
that the mission of Beauharnois, the French
senator, to Madrid, is possibly connected
with an intention to set aside the prince Of
Asturias, and declare the prince of peace heir
to the Spanish monarchy. Such measure,
howeyer,s never would be endured in Spain,
unless itwere the effect of revolution brot
about by the power of France in more sum-
mary manner.
