The French telegraph announces that the Duo de Montpensier and
the Dde d'Auniale entered Madrid on the 6th instant, and were received " with the utmost enthusiasm."
`The French papers have been occupied for the last few days by a fur- ther note said to have been presented to M. Guizot by Lord Normanby on Monday last. This is confirmed by the Constitutionnel of Thursday; which describes the note. "It admits that the principal and real object of the treaty of Utrecht was to obviate the possibility of the reunion of the crowns of France and Spain on the same head. That reunion is not probable at this moment; but it becomes possible hereafter, by the union of the event- ual rights of the Duc de Montpensier to the crown of France with the ac Mal rights of the Infanta to the crown of Spain." On this point the British Government have made reservations; which are copiously but loosely described in the Constitutionnel.
