We are assured that his majesty willing to give to the king of Spain a proof his of friendship h desiiing besides to sec the Splnish army on a respectable footing, to enable it to coricur in the common cause, has not only authorised recruiting for i Spain of 25,000 men, to be taken! j from amongst the Prussian prison- j ers, but has consented that 25,000 I morepuld be put at the dispo sition 6'f the court of Madrid, on the single condition that the Prus sian prisoners from amongst whom they shall be chosen, shall entpr voluntarily, and shall be employed m none but military service. This news is so much the more remark able, as for six weeks past, the most extraordinary reports have been -spread respecting the arma ments of Spain.
