POSTSCRIPT
• SATURDAY NIGHT. The Standard of this evening publishes a document purporting to be a manifesto issued by the Queer Regbrit of Spain, with an accompanying decree, by which the Cortes are convoked for the 20th January 1834. With the aid of the National Representatives, the Queen says that she hopes to bring about such changes as the state of the country may require; that the public revenues Actin a condition of unprecedented prosperity ; and that the confidence of the state creditors in the national faith " renders imperative the necessity of ameliorating their fate." The manifesto concludes with an intimation that the recognition of the independence of the South American Colonies will be one of the measures submitted to the Cortes. The Standard professes to have received this document from a most respectable quarter, but hesitates to place reliance on its authenticity. It has an eye, we suspect, to the price of Spanish Bonds.
