While the fueros existed French'con-rabandis.s had nearly the entire trade from the French frontier to the line of the Ebro in their own hands Now this will be to a great extent lost to them by the establishment of a regular line of frontier Custom-houses. If the French journals had the can- dour to admit this, we should be far from quarrelling with them as to the principle. We would have trade as free as the winds and waves, and are therefore op- posed to all Custom house restrictions. A curious story is whispered in Paris. It appears that the Em- peror of Russia, who is known to court the reports of bis female subjects residing in other countries, recently received from a Russian lady of high rank in Paris a rather piquant account of the attempted revolution in the Basques, which so disgusted him with the conduct of Louis Philippe, that he has ordered the departure of the Russian Ambassador from Paris to St. Peters- bnrgh, to hear verbally what explanation he can give of the matter. This affair is said to have created quite a sensation at the TuilerifS. Louis Philippe is in a rag-e, and swears that there must have been treachery somewhere in the Cabinet. Louis Philippe and M. Thiers are once more on the best possible terms. The ex-Minister is become quite a favourite at Court, and rumour adds that the next change in the Cabinet will accomplish his appointment to the Ministry of the In- terior. On Monday Mr. H. Lytton Bulwer, Minister Plenipotentiary from her Britannic Majesty, remitted to thn King of the French, at a private audience, the letters of recal of his Excellency Earl Granville.- Galignani s Messenger contradicts on authority the re- ported conversion of Lord and Lady Holland to the Catholic faith. We thought the report from the com- mencement exceedingly improbable, as we never heard Lord Holland taxed with any weakness of intellect. The Madrid papers to the 3d inst. have come to hand. In the Gazette of that date we find the annexed decree of the Regent, suspending the payment of the 30,000/. granted by the Cortes, as an annual pension, to the perfidious and profligate widow of Ferdinand VIT. With a due regard for just political considerations, and for certain motives of public propriety, in my quality of Regent of the kingdom during the minority of her Majesty Queen Isabella j[>( and with the concurrence of the Council of Ministers, I have decreed as follows:—From this moment, and until the adopllon ot a new tegistative measure, the payment of the grant allowed by the budget to her Majesty the Queen-Mother, Maria Christina, B°ur!Jon» 's suspended. You will receive this as A i-ided and will see to its execolion. lJUCA DE LA VICTORIA. A. M. ANTONIO GONZALEZ, go President of the Council of Ministers. This is g°'n £ the ri*,u way to work' If the Re £ ent J-J iess than this after the proofs he has of the treason f <1 is abandoned woman, he would be unworthy of the fidence of Spain and the respect of Europe. Nor ^"ld the Regent have adopted a measure better calcu- lated to wound the feelings of Christiua Munoz. This woman is avaricious as she is heartless, and certainly be more afflicted at tlie loss of her pension than by 11 the generous blood shed in Spain on her account. We trust one of the first acts of the Cortes when as- uied will be to pronounce a sentence of perpetual ie"hmet)t upon her. The unfortunate Brigadier rf roffa Y Frias was s,lot at Madrid on ,he 3d inst- w displayed a firmness at his death worthy of a belter It was believed in Madrid that General Concha caUS6c ncealed in the house-of the French Charge A-Affaires The Madrid papers are loud in their de- nriations of the intrigues of France. The projected rria<re of a French Prince with the young Queen is arpnerafiv ridiculed. We invite," writes the Minis- ferial Expectador, all those who, faithful to a policy of old standing, dream, of such a marriage to re- member 1808, and not forget tbat the blood of the laniards of Pavia, St. Quentin, Baylen, and Tolosa aril! flows in our veins. We ran to arms in 1808, and 1814 we drove from our territory a Monarch sup- ported bv the colossus of the age. In 1841 we still feel slron* enough not to permit that the King of Spain hould be a Prefectof France. Of the bitter hostility of feeling produced in Madrid by the recent conduct f France, some idea may be formed from the follow- ? toast drunk amid loud cheers, at a banquet of the National Guards of that capital, given to celebrate the defeat of the attack upon the Palace :—" To the happy day when we shall drink the blood of tyrants as easily as we do this cup of wine To the advent of pure democracy." If the Pope excommunicates the Due do la Vittoria, may Spain shake off the yoke of Home." May the Supreme Being soon take into his holy keep- ing the King of the Barricades An affecting incident followed the death of the unfortunate General Don Piego Leon. When the account of his being shot reached his family, a maid-servant who was much at- tached to her master, went mad on hearing it. By the arrival of the packet-ship Garrick, Captain Skiddy, New York papers have been received to the 26th ul t., six days later than those brought by the England on Monday last. This fine vessel has made a rapid voyage across the Atlantic, occupying eighteen days only, and brought twenty-seven cabin passengers, who ¡ highly complimented her new commander upon his first voyage in the Garrick. The New York papers state that M'Leod had arrived at Montreal, having been accompanied to St. John's by the Sheriff and two officers of the United States' Army; he was heartily cheered on landing.—These papers also announce the death of the Hon. John Forsyth, the late Secretary of State, a name familiar to the English reader.—Several destructive fires had occurred in the State. An incen- diarv fire at Georgetown had laid the entire business part of the city in allies. At Williamstown the College was destroyed by fire and in other parts of the Union large manufactories had fallen a sacrifice to the fiery element.—From New Orleans the most distressing accounts continued to reach New York as to the health I of that pestilpntial place the yellow fever still raged to a fearful extent; 115 deaths by the disease are reported in one week. In Vicksburgh and other southern places it was producing similar lamentable results.— The United States Government had com. menced a prosecution agf.inst the Shareholders of the nank of the United States, to recover sundry protested Bills of Exchange to the amount of 400,000 dollars. The markets uf the United States had slightly improved upon the latest news from England.— In the Stock- market exchange on England was quoted at S)J and 10 per cent, premium, with a fair business doing for the Garrick and Columbia.—The steam-ship Columbia, with dates from London to the 4th ult. inclusive, ar- rived out at Boston in fifteen days. She took 120 passengers, amongst whom was Viscount Morpeth.
