Public opinion was at once, therefore, brought to bear upon it, and the result was that it fell to pieces almost as soon as formed. Another Ministry has since been formed, with Espartero at its head, as President of the Coun- cil of Ministers. This appointment has not entirely

In addition to the above, in order to complete the series of documents connected with the treaty of the 15th July, we now publish the note from Lord Pal- merston to the French ambassador, by which it was accompanied :—“ NOTE—The undersigned had the honour, on the 17th of July, to inform his excellen- c M.

execution of which this convention provides, have created an obstacle which has prevented France from bein!Ir a contracting party to this compact. But her Maajest ’s government feel confident that the cabinet of the ' ‘uilierics will see in the provisions of this convention indisputable proofs that the four powers, in undertaking the engagements which it contains, ,have been animated by a disinterested desire to maintain those rinciples of policy with regard to Turkey which France has, on more than one occasion, distinctly and emphatically declared to be her own, that they do not seek to obtain, by the arrangements which they have in view, any exclusive advantage for themselves, and that the fleet object of their aim is to uphold the existing

lance of power in Europe, and to avert events which would disttirb the general peace. PALMER- s'rou, Foreign-office, September 6, 1810.”

The reply of M. Guizot to Lord Palmerston’s note, communicating the signature of the convention of the 15th ofJuly, has been the subject of much curi- osity and speculation ever since the appearance of the latter in_ the journals. The document so anxiously desired is at length given to the world. We find it in the Augsburg Gazette ofthe 14th inst.

“ Memorandum delivered by M. Guizot to Lord Palmerston,” the 24th q/‘July, 1840.—France, in the nfl'air of the East, has always been desirous of'actin in accord with Grout Britain, Austria, Prussia amgl Russia. Her conduct has been influenced only by the interest of peace. She has never judged the proposals made to her in any other point of view than that of the general interests, and never with a view to her own interests, for no power is more disinterested iu the eastern question than she is. Judging in this manner, she has considered as 'ill-conceivcd all the proposals, the object of which was to tear ii'om Meheinct Ali, by force ofarms, those portions of the Turkish Empire of which lie is in occupation. France does not conceive that this will be for the good of the Sultan, because it would ‘ tend to give him that which he could neither govern nor keep. She does not think it good either for Turkey in general, or for the maintenance ofthe balancn of power iti Europe iii particular, because it would weaken, without giving any advantage to the sovereign, n vnssal who may give poweiful assistance in the common defence of the em ire. Nevertheless, this is a question of system on w ich there may be many diverging opinions. But! France has particularly declared hciself against anv project the adoption of which might bring on the employment of force, because she could not dis-

FRANCE-The fortifications of Paris are commenced at various arts. En ineersare alread at work inthe plains of euilly an the Bois de Bou ogne, and in a few days at least 30,000 men will be employed. Louis Philippe, accompanied by the Duke d’Aumale, Generals Dobe and Vaillant, and the minister, paid a visit to the pro'ected works on Sunday last, and expressed himself highly satisfied with the plans. The Courrt'cr Francois and Constitutionnel, semi- oflicial paper, give a summary of what is doing and what is to be done. There are 1000 field-pieces of artillery ready for use. The army, at the end of October, will be composed of 610,000 men. The cavalry will be effective in men and horses to the number of 60,000. Manufacturers of clothing, hur- ness, and all other military necessaries, are at hard work. Saltpctre, sulphur, iron, brass and copper have been purchased in large quantities, and the founderies and arsenals are in full activity.
