Paris, Aug. 10. Within these three days no less than 18 different couriers have been dispatched to Madrid.--All is hurry and confusion at Versailles: Expresses are every moment sent to the different seaports; and if some whispers are to be credited, we are on the eve of a new rupture with the most formidable of our neighbours. This, and the distractions which are but too justly apprehended in Poland, threaten to deluge Europe afresh with blood, and throws an uncommon air of dejection over this metropolis, which was just beginning to recruit from the miseries of the late war.
