PARIS, July 15.-The following is a
text of the declaration made by Duke
De GrammOnt before the Senate to-
day: fr
MeSSieuys: The manner in which
the country received our declaration
of the 9Th of July led US to commence
negotiations with Prussia, to secure
her recognition of the validity of
our grievances. We did not treat
with Spain, whose independence
we have no wish to trammel, nor
with the Prince of Hohenzollern
whom we consider to be under the
shadow of the King. Nor have we
advanced any other grievance than
the candidacy of the Prince for the
| Spanish throne. The Prussian Min
ister of Foreign Affairs opposed to Us
a determination not to receive
our representation, pretending to
ignore the affair. We then addressed
! ourselves to the King, who main
| tanned he was a stranger, and he could
| not intervene except as head of the
| family; but he avOWed he had in
structed Bismarck. We could not ac-
cept that as an answer We demand.
| ed that the King should influence the
Prince of HohenZOllern. Resistance
\ in the project came from the quarter
whence it was least expected
| We then demanded that the
King should give promises foT
the future. This moderate de,
mand ,smade in moderate terms, was
declared to be without any reservation
The King declined to say he would
refuse in the future to interfere with
the candidature, and he refused to au.
thorize US to transmit to you the decla
| ration that he would in future oppose
the candidature. He declared thai
! he reserved to himself the
right to consider the remonstrance
Even after this refusal we did not
| break off the negotiations, but ad
journed our explanations to you un-
til this day. Yesterday we were ap
priced that the King of Prussia had
notified our Ambassador that hi
would no longer receive him; and, t.
render the rupture more obvious, he
| gave notice of his action to the cabi
net of Europe. At the same time be
announced that Weithey might
take leave and that the armaments o.
Prussia had commenced to move. Or
our part, we yesterday called out the
reserves and we have taken such
other measures as the interest anC
honor of the country demanded. A
copy of this declaration has been pre-
sented to the Corps Legislatif by tn,
keeper of the seals. The government
asks vote of supplies, and the call tt
arms of all classes owing military ser
