The affairs Of Spain have been much discussed at
the frequent cabinet councils that have OF late been
held at st. Cloud. 1t was thought at first by the
Walewski party that the contemplated fusion OF
! the male and female line Of the Spanish Bourbons
would meet the Emperor's immed ate Reproduction;
tut exactly the contrary is the case. Napoeons
answer to long harapgue on the subject from one
of the ministers, was simply an expression Of his
belief that Narvaez could not 90 better than pro
mote it. OF course not another word to be said
the oracle had spoken-rerbum sapiendibus l
does not appear to me- no viewer, that such circum
stance ought to occasion the surprise add astonsh
ment il has. Such an observation is perfectly con-
eistent with the antecedents of Napoleon, which,
since his elevation to the direction of affairs, have
ever been to give idealogists OF every descriptio
rope enough and to spare. 1t is by the complication
of schemes that he endeavors to establish his neces
sity; and presuming that his designs ultimately tend
Sowards proving to Spain that he is the Deur er
Nachend, nothing can better suit his purpose than
that Carlists, Constituencies, republicans and
pure monarchsts, should suffer themselves to be
jumbed together in hopeless confusion. The
Queen declares that anything like permanent secu-
rity for her in Spain is an impossby and especi
ally anxious to seize the present occasion, when for
the nonce the game has returned to her own hands,
of preparing for herself comfortable retirement. 1t
is for this she wishes to effect marriage with her
daughter and the male branch Of the Bourbons,
and then abdicate in his favor. What she
breads above all things is the meeting of the
Cortes, and all her influence has been exerted to
induce Narvaez to take the initiative in dispensing
by coup detat with that troublesome body, but
Narvaez it would appear, is not prepared at present
TO go quite so far. That he will buckle on his
amor and do eventually is very probable, for the
Cortes, il understood with standing all the in
duence that has been brought to bear its organi
cation is not ripe for Carlis fusion, and the ex-
cuse for dispensing with les labors will not long be
wanting.
