The Moniteur of Wednesday contains a notice relative to the
inlisting of men to serve in Spain, which is equivalent to the sus. pension of the Foreign Inlistment Act in this country. French- men who may "enter into the service of her Majesty the Queen of Spain, may at the same time preserve their quality as Frenchmen."
The proceedings in the French Court of Peers are slow and un- satisfactory. The prisoner who was on trial on Wednesday was named CARRIER, a workman of Lyons. A principal witness against him was PICOT, whom CARRIER proved to be a police- agent, and an instigator of the people to rebellion, in order that he might afterwards betray them to his employers. Considerable excitement was produced by the discovery of this fact, which aggravates the iniquity of the Government proceedings through- out this affair.
The American Indemnity Bill has passed both Chambers, and the Royal assent to it has been officially published in the Moni- ieur. Upon the bill finally passing the Chamber of Peers, it is said that the Duke DE BROGLIE could not repress his feelings of delight.
