SPAIN.
The Progressistas presented a petition to the Queen, praying her Majesty not to sanction the law piesented to the chambers for conferring on her ministers despotic powers, in favour of which the Senate had reported. The papers of thr 6th instant state that ministers have determined not to recognize the French Republic until after the holding of the National Assembly. Senor Isturitz left Madrid for London on the 6th inst., to resume his duty as Minister. The Queen had expressed the most lively sati faction at the intelligence which she had received on the previous day of the arrival of her sister, the Duchess of Montpensier, in London. Maria Christina and Narvaez, unwarned by the fate of Louis Philippe and Guizot, seem determined to continue their attempts to govern by force. Large sums of money were distributed among the troops on the 6th instant, by Narvaez ; but this cannot long continue. There is no M. Guizot, with a large secret service fund, to apply to now to uphold dynastic interests.
