London, Tuesday, April 6,...
We yesterday received from Paris, papers and private correspondence of Saturday last. The latter contain an account of the arrival of an extraordinary courier from MIadrid, on his way to England, with despatches for our Government. These despatches are said to be accomrpanied with an autograph letter from FI:DINAND) to his Bri- tannic MAJESTY, on the subject of the recognition of South American independence. The Ministers of his Catholic MAJESTY, havingDfailed in convincing Mr. CAXNING of thl propriety o meeting the Holy Alliance in Congress, to settlk the relations between Spain and the new trans-Atlantis States which formerly acknowledged her dominion, FER- DINANAD himself, conceiving, no doubt, that he had to dea with an English Reabsoluto,appeals from the Minister to thi Sovereign, and tries, as a last resource,his gentle persuasioi on the mind of GEORGE IV., urging him to consent to tlih proposed diplomatic meeting as soon as possible, and tellini him that a refusal to joiu in the solicite(d mediation mus be considered as a formal declaration in favour of the part, opposed to Spain. This " calamity," as the Royal scrib styles Amcrican independence, he hopes still to avert. The views and plans of the French Cabinet re specting the Madrid Embassy are still as unsettled am uncertain as ever. The Marquis de TALARU, thei Ambassador, almost every day kicks against his in. structions, and is every day reprovect for his conduct The constant resource with him, then, is, to send in his re signation, which the Ministry are as unprepared to receiv as they are ready to provoke. His opposition in the Ultr saloons and political coteries of Paris is more dreaded thai his folly or perversity at Madrid, With an efficient mili tary agent, and an accommodating diplomatic substitute iz General BouRNION'T, Ministers might therefore be tempt ed to allow the Madrid mission to remain An i t r footing for serne tine longer, if TALARU would coilsent to continue a cipher in what he calls a "disgusting residence." This, however, he refuses to do, if BouRMfONT remairts in command of the troops; antl General CURIAL, who was proposed as a successor, is equally disagreeable to him. It is therefore said, that M. de CHASTELLUX, the brother of the Duke dc RAUZAN, who is headl secretary of CHATEAU- BRIAND'S office, will receive the military appointment after the expected change.
