ous; and no such idea can have been seriously entertained by those who have desired reform.

France.

Two changes of the ministry occurred in Paris within three days, in the month of November. The Duke of Bassano having been raised to the office of Prime Minister, found at the outset that he could not enjoy the cordial support of his cabinet, and speedily tendered his resignation. Marshal Mortier was sent for at Strasburgh, and invested with the offices of Minister of War and President of the Council, and the cabinet was soon formed again as it was before the accession of Marshal Mortier, with the exception of only two members.

Spain.

The rising of the Carlists in the north of Spain has not yet been suppressed, although General Rodil has prosecuted the war with activity and repeated advantages. The nature of the country, and the favour felt by many of the inhabitants in the upper provinces for the cause of Don Carlos, have enabled his adherents to sustain themselves, though in small force. Nothing material seems to have been effected by the Cortes, during a session in which some important steps might have been taken under a different system of elections. One effect of the amnesty proclaimed to the constitutional exiles, has been the appointment of the distinguished General Mina to the command of the troops of Navarre. Towards the close of October, the Carlist forces were gaining ground in Rioja, Soria, Arragon, and Catalonia; and the priest Merino threatened to intercept the communication between the Basque provinces and the capital, so that five thousand men were thought necessary to secure the roads. The more recent accounts, however, as intimated above, represent the condition of the Carlists as less prosperous.

Mexico.

The state of things in this country already intimates the necessity of a speedy relaxation of the system proclaimed at the time

of the dissolution of Congress, mentioned in the last number of our Review. The election of most of the members of the new Congress had been held, at our latest accounts, and they had been authorized by most of their states to amend the constitution. In consequence of questions raised, respecting the extent of this authority, the government published a declaration, that it did not extend to any fundamental change.

New-Granada. This leading republic of South America continues to pursue with success various plans for improvement, particularly in fostering education. A society for the promotion of primary instruction has been recently formed in the capital, on a plan similar to those of Popayan and Pasto, under the patronage of the president of the republic, and the government of the department. The number of the devoted and intelligent friends of education in Bogota has also been increased, by the arrival of General Herran, who, after a visit of four years in Europe, and a short stay in the United States, has returned to his native land. This gentleman, who entered the army at the age of fourteen, and was actively engaged in many battels, from that of Popayan to that of Ayacucho, in Peru, has devoted himself for the future to the war against ignorance and vice ;-the most bitter and dangerous enemies of American liberty.

The disturbances in the Equator, it is probable, have ere this entirely ceased. After General Flores left home to operate at Guayaquil, the inhabitants of Pasto and other cities shook off his authority, declared against him, and took measures to restore a good understanding with New-Granada. His presidential term expired in September, and there were several candidates before the people.

A French squadron reached Carthagena in October to demand satisfaction for the insult offered several months before to the Consul of France. Satisfactory amends were made, and the matter harmoniously settled: M. Barrot, the consul, being reinstated, and affairs placed on an amicable footing. The re-moulding of the tariff has been made with a greater disposition to favour the trade with the United States.
