No thoughtful man should be surprised at any amount of delay and difficulty in inducing an effec tual and permanent popular interest in Adminietra• ties Reform. The transition from the old methods which have become intolerable to the new which Inset be decided on involves so radical a change that it ;;;;;;coura g ing than disheartening to see that the nation is not running after a superficial fancy, but hesitating on the verge of • new and untried 1 order of things. Every regime has its good and evil attributes; and when the evil preponderate so as to eompel a change, it is permissible to regret the kits of any ancient benefit, end to face with roluetanse 1 the admission of any new dangers, however indispa table may be the preponderance 01 advantage. Thus 1 it is with the changes made and contemplated is regard to the filling up of public offices in Ilighad. The political biographies which have of late 'Amended, exhibiting the life of statesmanship for Ilme net 70 or 80 years, cause a sort of painful otos inmost to young readers, from the revelations they melte of oligarchical views on the subject of Aloe. bolding.

The very first eentenee of the report intimates that "the directors congratulate the shareholders upon a considerable Increase of receipts, without any augmentation in the ordinary working expenses." Surely, then, at this period of pesperity the Board might not to shrink from Idepag any item of legitimate expenditure. Yet, is item, is the natural bent ot railway adminis trative in this perverse direction that they would probably start if told the plain truth, that the 6 per Nat dividend now declared by the Loudon and North-Western Company is not fairly earned. The bet is, the Board have " put on the screw " to queens out this rate ot distribution, apparently sepulleas of the circumstance that the charges now peelpened will inevitably have to be met at a future period. Not apart from the delusion which is systemati cally attempted in the handling of the " rail re 'mai fund," there are other items of the accounts to which, had we epees, the ariticiem of the pro prietors might be usefully directed. Making every allowance for the extent of the company's spa► dens, we cannot help thinking that, unless tams be a design in the matter, laxity of ■smepwsit is isdioated by the magnitude of two items slatedieg empisdrely on opposite sides of the "General Wenn "To outstanding accounts ere by the company, 409,3041. 16s. 4d. ;" and ea the other aide, "By outstanding amounts due to the company, 640,7631.

The constant swilling of the capital mount* of railways seems a fixed principle, for all the riding antherities have a direct interest in promoting the movement, whilst shareholders are too apathetic to step forward and arrest ft. Yet, if one fact be unmistakeably proved by oar railway experience it is this—that oompanise whisk begs. with a comparatively small capital, and imbued themselves to their own legitimate amide, have almost uniformly paid large dividends, and that the extension of the original undertaking into a variety of bah direotioos has infallibly resulted in diminished dividends and impaired credit.

SPAIN. 02011 ♦ SPACIAL The Association, a journal published at Madrid, contains the following : " Some alarming rumours were circulated yester day, and it was said that new troubles were on the point of breaking out. The inventors and propagators of these reports have no other object than to make foolish and turbulent people believed that the only way to re-establish order, and to secure the prosperity of our trade and industry, is to recall such men as Narrate, Mon, and Salamanca to Spain. We recommend all patriotic citizens to maintain the strictest vigilance. Whoever proposes now to resort to insurrection and street fighting, is sure to be an infamous tool of the reactionary party, a wretch who has sold himself to Christina and her partizins. Be vigilant, all you liberals! Our enemies are not less hypocritical than cowardly; and let us be not lees prudent than brave." The journal above goofed was suppressed on the 9th by the Governor of Madrid; and its contents are now limited to bare matters of fact, and newe. A despatch from Barcelona states that a certain degree of agitation recalls there, caused by the levying of the new tax, which is to supersede the odroi and the right of preemption. The governor of Navarre has prohibited the exportation of MS on account of the high price of wheat, which is now at 60 reale the fanoya. The same measure hes been adopted in other provinces, to avoid such disturbances as have been excited by scarcity of food in Castile. The Spanish Gaulle of Railways gives some par ticulars of the scheme of the company to whom has been conceded the line from the Pyrenees to the Mediterranean. The company is already proprietor of two great MUG between Armco, Madrid, and the Mediterranean, connecting Samara and Alioant with the capitol. This great association combines the interests of five distinct parties:—Fiat. the oonceseisanaires of the line from Madrid to Bars- goes', including Metered, Monty,Guetave Delahante, Chateloe, end Lebois ; god, the proprietors of the Grand Central Railway of France; 3rd, the home of Rothschild; 4th, the commercial and industrial body in Spain; and sth, the town of Salamanca. The term. of its coostitution, which have already been submitted to the approval of the government, will probably be sanctioned, and the issue of shares will then be commenced, both in Spain and abroad. The Ans gon line la to be divided into three motions-4nm Madrid to Guadalajara, from the latter place to Calatayud, end thence to Saragossa. There is nothing of importance in the Madrid journals of the 9th. The GaseUe only contains a circular of the Minister of the Interior, explaining some points in the recent airculu relative to the math in, and circulation of, corn and provisions. In consequence of the r►eetabliebment of tran quillity, the government (says the Bpoca) had ordered that the divieion of General Dales in Arragon should be recalled. According to the same journal, the garrison of Madrid was only between 6,000 and 7,000 men, bat a • trees &roe was encamped in the environs. Marshal Serrano, the new ambassador at Paris, had had a long eoeferenes wit► the Clasen. The Espana says that M. Moo, instead of M. Pacheco, was spoken of as ambassador to Ragland. MADRID, Arson 12. Boma persons who had been mated at Barcelona have been condemned to the galleys or to transporta tion to the °Monism The general disarming of the National Guard is everywhere being carried on with t►e most perfect tranquillity. The fears entertained of scarcity an gradually diminishing. CONDITION OF SPAIN : THE , PT AN ENGLISH TILATELLER. It will be my she, in the present commuoication, to oil with the fear North-Eastern provinces of Spain -Navarre. Armen, Catalonia, and Valencia. The molter configuration of the latter province renders perhaps scarcely a legitimate appeadsge to a group North-Eastern states; bet it may be allowed for Aconicass to fall within the present classification. The salient divergences of national character be twain the different provinces of Spain, to which I before adverted, are siegularly applicable to the four provinoes now coder discussion, in spite of their close territorial proximity. The only qualifications to be eared to this statement are, that they unite in do vish's the revival of their single independence; that their hatred of the Central Government knows no appreciable distinction ; and that the inhabitants of each province detest those of the others with a most impartial and patriotic reciprocity. The form of these conflicting sentiments in their itifluenos os the political organisation of Spain is thee completely neutralised. The whole centrifugal power of these ea- ' flout predilections is lost, because there are no means of combination between single provinces. Were the national antipathies between province and province once overcome by the political antipathy of each provisos to the Central Power, Spain would immedi ately cease to be governed by a single monarchy. I will deal first with Catalonia, as the most impor tant and peculiar of the provinces here in question. The Catalonians are the manufacturers of Spain. Their oedema character is the most singularly ver satile on the fees of Europe. They are the hardest labourers and the most ardent politicians of the Pen insula. The whole soul of the nation oscillates from the permits of commerce to active rebellion, with a suddenness and a rapidity nearly beyond belief. They alone, of all the provinces of Spain, have practically been nearly flung away by the court at Madrid. Zajoyiog this comparative independ epos, they have become the greatest difficulty of the state. Too important, both by commerce and by tenitory, to be abandoned, and too powerful and determined to be subdued, their relations with the supreme power are jest those which diplomatic terminology would love to classify as ' , abnormal." When we look upon this people as hard-working, strictly frugal, and scrupulously honest—thus 'tending in the broadest contradistinction with their neighbours —we are hardly able to credit the fact that the history of the last twenty years places them among the most blood thirsty of the republicans of Spain. During the recent civil wars they probably produced more manu factured goods and murdered more prisoners of war than all the other territories of Queen Isabella. As it will be conceded—whatever may be the future disturbances of Spain—that the question of the sue. cession to the throne is now virtually settled, so far at least as the Carlists are concerned, it may be interest ing to cast a glance over the commercial politics of Catalonia. Cotton and calico are the chief manufactures of the province; and Barcelona, the head-quarters of its industry, bears about the same relation to Liver pool or Manchester that Spain itself, in point of national wealth, hears to England. Its manufac tured goods are of a very rude kind : the whole people exhibit that idiosyncrasy which may be classified ell a state of " commercial barbarism " rather than com mercial civilisation. In Catalonia the people, though divided into manufacturers, agriculturists, and twenty other vocations, have this common characteristic-- that they are all smugglers. Nobody disdains, or so much as denies, the imputation. You might as well ask a Greek if he were not a thief, as ask a Catalo nian if he were not • smuggler. Such an or ganised violation of political morality and public law never probably existed in any commonwealth of Europe. The vast manufactories of Barcelona are so many engines for the maintenance of this openly illicit trade. The cause of all this evil—at once to the com merce and morality of the people, and to the uee of the state—rests, of course, in the pro- tective system which has been so long maintained ; and which seems to have entailed a spirit of centre bandism upon the people which I believe no reform in the commercial policy of Spain will immediately eradicate. The Pyrenean frontier affords the greatest facilities for the maintenance of this system with France, and with France, accord ingly, a large share of the commercial relations of Catalonia are maintained. Nothing is more common in Spain, or even in this country, than to hear that the English have been kicked out of Barcelona, and that French commerce now reigns supreme where English commerce was once almost exclusive. But this is simply the immorality of Protection. British goods are both cheaper and better than those of France; but the difference in economy is not equal to the differences of exorbitant com mercial imposts. The result very naturally is that Francis, with every physical facility for the mainte nance of contrabandism, can introduce her goods by smuggling more cheaply than England through the legitimate ports of Spain. If we contrast the character of this province with that of Valencia, we shall find the difference very striking. The Valencians, though equally laborious, are essentially men of the South." While the Catalans are openly cruel in war, and honest in their ready avowal of coutrabandism, the Valencians have all the cunning and treachery of the Greek, joined to the sullenness and vindic tive character of the Italian. Their daily life in not lees distinct. Their labour and sorrow are alto. gether agricultural. Ri.e forme the chief produce of this district, and its cultivators are so devoured by swarms of the southern murquitoes that it would appear by the laws of nature in Valencia that rice was made for man, and man was made for the mite• quitoes. The labour of the people and the produce of the soil are, however, amazing. Irrigation was alone wanting to the natural fertility of Valencia; sad this deficiency his been in great measure me. ' plied by canals artificially constructed in communt cation more often with one of the chief rivers of the province. I should be disposed to regard these two bordering populations, thus widely differing from each other in many characteristics, as among the suet hopeful of Spain. The people of Arragon and Navarre are widely dia. tinot from the Catalina and the Valencians. They are altogether an indolent and warlike race, Weeps. btu of effecting much, under any system of govern men; towards the material developmen t of Spain. They are strikingly suggestive of the truth, that the Spa nish provinces were designed by nature to constitutes great federative state. For while the attempts to effect their complete consolidation are essentially ineffective, they are bound together by this fundamental necessity of nature, that each mote or less c,ntribntes to the wants of the other. Thus the interposition of a mar tial people, like those of Navarre and Arragon, be tween France and the central provinces of Spain, seems to indicate an especial provision for the Inds psodenos of the rest, while the labour and resources of other provinces appear designed to requite the service of military protection. In the moun taineers of these districts there is just what intrepid Spartanism, living among rocks and stones, with eavious neighbours around, is always likely to create. In Navarre, the custom which re. gaited the whole male population to congregate with arms to the frontier on the signal of danger being given is still recognised. The tradi tionary bravery of the mountaineers has been main tained through every Peninsular struggle, from the age of the Romans to our own. There le much in their character which corresponds to the qualities from which such mighty results accrued of olel: Hans Aim veers% 'Ram colliers Sabiai ; Hans Ramos et trater ; sic fortis Etruria erev:t ; Scilicet et terms (seta est puleberrima Roma; Septemque ass sibi sure eireamdedit seem. Is the course of the present sketch I have attempted to demoutrate the importance of these four provinces, and their several relations to the general system of Spain. In other communications I shall attempt to apply the same mode of treatment to the Central and to the North-Western Provinces; and shall thus endeavour to point out the elements of harmonious action which exist beneath a superficies of the grossest prejudices of nationality and the most vicious system of government. 1111881 A. A letter from Sebastopol of the 23rd olt., in the Austrian Gazette, says:—" The Archbishop of Cher. son and Taurida, Innocent, arrived here two days ago, to bless the southern part of the town, which the Emperor has ordered to be rebuilt. The churches being destroyed, Divine service was celebrated in the chapel of the Virgin, which alone stands entire, on an altar made of wood. The archbishop compared the town to the fields of death of Ezekiel, and re• marked that even if Sebastopol were not rebuilt, it would still remain grand and immortal. The *oath side being still uninhabited, the only spec table present, besides the admirals and authorities, were • few sailors, two battalions of infantry, and some people drawn by curiosity front Sim. pheropol. In the plaoe where existed the six bes• Lions which defended Sebastopol there will now be constructed hospitals and residences for invalid soldiers. The communications between the north and month shores will be established by means of • bridge of boats, placed between the former forts St. Nicholas and tit. Michael. In the Ksrabelnaia good I ho•ses,oo a uniform plan, will be constructed in place of the miserable huts which formerly existed there. These will be let out to soldiers' or sailors' families at the rate of 3 per cent. on the money expended." A letter from Odessa of the tad, in the Austrian Gazette, says :—" The reigning Princem of Mingrwa Catherine Dadiao, with her young son, Nicolas, , ttenant in the Guards, arrived here a few days ago by the Dargo. She was likewise accompanied by her sister, widow of the unfortunate poet Gribo. jedoff, assassinated in 1826 by the people of Teheran daring his embassy to Persia. She is going, with • numerous suits, to Moscow, for the coronation, to swear fealty, and be again invested with authority, as is the custom on such occasions." The Gate!le d'Augstwurg states that M.
