III such was the state of affairs when the last ac

III There is, il might almost be said, as wide
21hi!lerence between the views OF France ana .,'s
,S3|i,erency of Madrid, as between France and tht
fCortes France might have been content win
fsnodi6cation of the Constitution, and the restora
ESjton of the King to political and personal 'fee
5R&dom. But the Regency seem to reject all suc'
yHjyiews, and to act as il nothing would conten
s$hhem short of absolute and unconditional sub
n mission on the part OF the Constitutonalls's -
;!Iha, any set of men could be guilty of such IN
fhatuation and blindness, seems scarcely credible
JBut possibly it may be found that they are les
Ahe authors OF such an unwise policy than u
Asents acting from the secret suggestions OF
xoreign and distant Power. it could be be
1ieved that such suggestions proceeded from III
# Power, the world would be at no loss to see no
b s%1tle the professions of some Cabinets agree Wi
Gssiaher conduct. II would be policy which coul
W4bnly be dictated by desire to influence, not
koothe the animosltes of The two parties IN Spal
%5$-to prolong, not to sholten, the calamiiles
#&war, and finally to raise up fresh obstacles IN II
&Asay OF the French Government. 1t France see
I'm this light and if this be correct view OF o
i &g3ars, there would be but policy, which
WlRould be the duty, not only ct France and SpaI
Mgbut even OF this country, TO adopt, upon whic
1lowever, we shall not enlarge at present, trus
4nl6ng that the suspicious of any such conduct mi
Mo found to be, it not altogether untounded,
4f2p least greatly exaggerated.
# But to return to the conduct fthe Regency
ls8fWhen the Duke d'Angonleme was about to lea
S7Naslrid for Seville, the Regency peremptorily z
HdX,panded that they should be companions OF J
WTRoyal Hphness. The demand was as peremp1
Fxkaiy refused. Still the Regency pressed their
%{snand of being always al the head quarters OF t
sE French army, Upon which it was deemed
%X cessary to hold out threats which alone preve
cd their carrying their intentions into execute
8 One OF these threats we understand was, that
h III French army would leave them to themsev
VA and take up position behind the Ebro.
