MADRID June 10, ls47.-The results which had been
anticipated by all wenformed persons, as consequent
on the royal marriages concluded by King Louis Philippe
and the Queen Dowager, continue to develop them
selves. The Queen Isabella and her consort in fact
separated They domiciled miles asunder. Mutual
aversion is the feeling which has followed these unhal
lowed nuptials, which have had assuredy no honey
moon. The marriage bed will, of course, be barren
and unless the cunning Of the French King have over
reached ITSELF the regning Queen is only the iocum.e
mems OF the throne which his danghter.n-law and her
children must ultimately occupy The prince consort has
for some time back occupied royal palace at some dis
lance from Madrid, called the Pardo where he is
rounded by coerte hostile to the Queen and her cab-
net He tc of uioitc nd
attentions from the French ambassador the Duke of
Glucksburg Every exertion has been made the part
of the friends of the Queen to induce him to return to the
same roof with her Majesty, at least not to present
to the world the scandal OF an open separation These
attempts have been Intellectual Meanwhile the young
Queen attaches to her person the fallen Don Francisco
and of the sisers-the lnfanta Josselao her
sort In all her rides and drives she is accompanied by
these and they domesticated iii the palace. When
she makes visit to any OF the summer residences they
invariably accompany her.
Her mother, Queen Cristinc, who, if will be remem-
bered, time since obliged to quit Spain in con-
sequence OF the unconstitutional influence she attempted
to exercise in the palace has lately applied for penis-
ton to return to Madrid The ministry intimated that
their part opposition would be made to such step,
but it ascertaned by the friends of the queen
that the reception she must expect from her daughter
would not be such would prove agreeable TO her. On
this hint she decided against returning, and is now in
Paris.
The Queen Dowager has Just returned to France from
visit to Napesthe protested object OF which was to
see her brother, the King OF the Two Sicles, and the
other members OF her family She had hardly arrived
there when she departed for Rome 1t underst God that
the reception she met with from her family not of
very cordial kind Indeed, according to some reports
they declined to receive her at all On her return she
stopped four days at Rome, where she had a private
audience OF the Pope, the object of which is said to be
suppcate his Holiness not to grant the divorce which
her daughter Queen Isabella is understood TO have APP
plied for.
The present ministry here is in politics, of shade
between the tory and the radical sort of jalsemieu
as it is called in France Its stability, however, very
doubtful, and it seems probable that ere long there
will be modification in the liberal direction The
,ervaves the moderate party they here called
who were go unceremoniously dismissed by the Queen
some months ago, appear little likely to recover office
The court of Rome, which, since the accession of the
present Queen, held diplomatic relations with Spain,
has just sent egate, NJ. Brugnelle TO Madrid This
step is considered highly detrimental, il not totally de-
,ructive to the hopes of the Count de Montemolno
