the Chamber of Deputies ou the subject of

naye, who took comprehensive view of the
foreign relations Of France, as well as of her
5nternal stuation and pointed out the dangers
10 be apprehended from the vacillating con
duet ofihe ministry.
NJ. de Villele replied at great length, and
indicated the conduct of the French govern
nient in the present situation of Spain, which
neither Afforded security to its sovereign nor
offered any guarantee of the integrity of
lseig!Aoriug states. France was not engaging
IN a war ofaggression or ACKNOWLEDGEMENT; she
was only anxious Ia maiu!ain those common
principles of security which were essential to
che preservation OF peace, and which the
sovereigns of Europe, had entered into Il So
feino compact To preserve. France did not
attack Spain, she only made war ON a party,
and against principles which were injurious
10 that country and obnoxious to the general
feelings of the Spanards.
M. de Ville!e abored hard to show that
fhe national honor, TO preserve peace and
TO save Spain; and that she had no other al
tentative than that Of vindicatng those prin-
c'pies which were equally essential to- the
peace "i France and Spain, by the course she
was now pursuing, and which he doubted not
would be crowned with success.
he Minister, however, seems to have had
some little niisgiving on this point, for in the
course OF his very elaborate speech, he spoke
ct the nccrttude which would attend the
war.
