The Kmperor is, however, kept ‘well informed of all that is going on beyond the frontier. Couriers are perpewally passing to and fro betwixt Bayonne and Mombieres. That the Queen's troops have £0 far bad the best of it, n0 one denies, bot the bloody contest bas been sufficiently prolonged to indicate the desperate nature of the evterprise to which the Queen ‘and her myrmidons have exposed themselves.

To stay the plague, it is thought Napoleon has no help for it bat tntervention, Which cannot but give a new faceto the Spanish question. This is what every one dreads. Can it be so managed ae to be rendered palatable to any considerable portion of the — NEW YORK Spanish people? Ca it be done wathout Tanning the em» bers coven jeai usy into a tiame? Already there are symptoms of this last being on the qué vive, and very little is wanting to give it tangible shape and form. Narvaez has twice, since the coup «’éat, gone privately to Plombiéres, and been closetted with the Emperor more than two hours atatime, He is known to have told his Majesty that without hia sd O’Donnell would be power- less as a moderado, and with no other party can he now pretend to have the slightest inilueuce. The sentiment towards Hepartero in Paris ought certainly to be very gratifying to him. His thorough honesty, his enlightened patrtotiom, his freedom from personal ambition, are the constant theme of laudation, and many look apon him ag the last champion of constitutional liverty Spain ig likely to possess for many a long year to come. A curious incident connected with the 0’ Donnell con- ‘wpiracy was related yesterday in my hearing by an inti- mate friend of the Countess de Montijo, mother of the Empress Pugeaie. A young lady, s daugh- ter of one of the noblest houses in Spain, two days before the accepteace by the Queen of bis resignation, drove up to the house of Hepartero. Notwithstanding the importance ef her rank, she found {t impogaible to gain admittance. With a thousand apologies che Duke of Vic- tory’s secretary informed her that his master was en- gaged with three Ministers on affairs of such emergency that to ‘nterrupt him just now would be to ensure tis own dismisesl. “You cam deliver ‘p note, I suppose, marked ‘ungemt,’ and wait for the an- swer?” was the sharp retort. The Secretary bowed. Should the apswer be sent to the lady’s hotel? No, cer tainly not—she would wait fer it there, if she remained io ‘thecourt al! night. Pen and ink were then given to the la¢y, who was-ene of the most boactitul persous ir Ma- arid, and she Wrote one Tne, not signing her name, bub sealing the open paper with her signet. The words wero swritten in English, and were simply theee, * It is 1.” The secretary disnppeared, ouly to rewurn in all haste to de- | sire the lady to enter tira cxbinet of his chief, Eepartero, and they were clogetted for halfan hour; aiter which the Duke was eeen handimg her to ber carriage with more than Andatasian respect and empressemont. Tne lady wes observedto be ip tears. As s00n as she bad lefi, tero communicated to-bis secretary that the Qrcen would accept his resignation; that the streets would be deiuget with bioed; that there woold be civil war. ‘* You are not wmen,”’ be added, ‘of much nerve; your health is deli cate.
