NEW YORK, July 29.--We have received
by the Stephania, Paris papers TO the 18th ut.
lnclusNS, but their contents have principally
been anticipated by the London papers re-
cely ed.
The following is an extract OLA letter from
respectable house, dated Paris, Jure Is.
The news from Spain has become less en-
couragng for the French army. 1t appears
by the MOniteur, this morning, that NINA has
sheen himself OH Me Frontiers of France,
which circumstance will retard the operations
at Madrid. Our coast is also much annoyed

valuable captures. These circumstances may
senslbly affect the state Of our markets, which
have been now for two months nearly in
complete state of suspense" [Afer. .4du.

In the annexed TRANSACTIONS from our French

holy Alliance is ever forward. After redu

that the minor soyerrgns are to he looked
upon, not as free agents to do with their own
domnons, whatever superior intelligence and
some more finely touched feelings might
inspire, for the happiness of the people, but as
pr0consuIs as 1t were, of that three-headed
monster, for even France Seems ashamed of
this last proceeding, which calls itself the Holy
Alliance. We alIude to the displeasure which
Russia, Prussia, and Austria, have by with
drawing Their Ministers from Stulgard, mani
tested against the King OF Wlrtemburg for
the sole crime of having granted constitution
TO his subjects. We recommend to orr read
crs the article from the Constitutional on
this sub ect-which, with all the trammes of
censorship, still exposes freely and strongly
the ennlty as well as absurdily, of such a
doctrine. As part of the same system, we
give the decree of the Germanic Diet sup

Observer, (not the Austrian Observer, which
