A SECOND EDITION of the EXPRESS, CONTAINIITO The Latest Foreign Telegrams; the Latest City; Railway, Mining, and other Shares; Sporting, and General Intelligence, I 8 PUBLISH= EVERY EVENING. LONDON, MONDAY, OCT. 19. SPA IN. THE leaders of the Spanish revolution are pro ceeding in their work with a dignity and circum spection which command the respect of all free nations, and belong to the character of a great people. They have, it is true, the bitter warnings of their own later history to guide them ; they have the lamentable example of a neighbouring Empire to teach them how liberty is lost. Although the Government of Queen ISABELLA had attempted to suppress public opinion in her dominions, to steep the popula tion in barbarous idolatries, and to make a corrupt priesthood the sole dispensers of instruction, it was impossible in these days to draw so absolute a cordon round the frontier that the glimmering lights of an age of science and inquiry should not penetrate a darkness which could be felt. The high minded and enlightened men who had been driven into exile were destined to come back as the missionaries and propagators of the liberal ideas for which they had suffered at home, and in their constancy and courage was preserved the hope of the better future of their country. It seems evi dent that the statesmen who are now charged with the maintenance of public order and the establish ment of public liberty in the Peninsula have for gotten nothing but learnt much. Among the more promising and favourable signs of the direction the Revolution is taking is the fact that although the chiefs of the movement are soldiers they are anxious to associate themselves with civilian and parliamentary statesmen, and even to give the latter the precedence in the direction of the councils from which the future government is to spring. In his speech at Saragossa, Marshal Lizaluxo expressly declared his wish for the formation of a ministry under the leadership of Senors °imams. and Rrvzno, as " best fitted to " organise the administration of the country upon " indestructible liberal ham. " Now Senor OLO7AOA, it is known, is eminently a constitu tional and parliamentary statesman. Ile is one of those men of law for whom the first NAPOLEON professed so candid an abhorrence, and his attach ment to those institutions which are so repugnant to the genius of imperialism has been made known to Europe by his powerful eloquence in the Chamber and by his long and honourable banish ment. No man in Spain is more capable of rendering energetic and lasting services to the cause of the national regeneration than this able and patriotic Progressist. Senor Riven° belongs to a more advanced, or what is called " democratic," section of the Liberal party. in coupling those two names together Marshal SEgitario shows that ho understands the thoreughueas of the work that has to ho done before Spain assn be made worthy of a future destiny more glorious than her past. Nor is it less noteworthy that in all the spoeohes of the millitary chiefs of the Provisional Govern ment ono and the same key-note--" liberty of " conscience "—is hoard: liberty of conscience , and what we should call in England " liberty of the subject." That distinguishoil Spanish publicist Senor 0 A REIOO has struck the true Omni in asserting that do present Spanish revolution is above all a religious revolu tion. We do not mean to point to the expulsion of the Jesuits as a sign of this—absoluto mo narchies have expellod the Fathers of that Society —though in the country of LOYOLA the proscrip tion of the Order is sufficiently significant. Nor do we suppose that Spain is likely to heroin° Protestant all at once. It is even possible that the new Constituent Assembly may declare the Church of Rome to be still the Church of the State. Yet it will be no small gain to civilisation and hu manity that in the native land of the Inquisition, in the last European State whore the Roman Church has presumed to insist on unity of faith and to pursue heresy with fine and imprisonment, religions liberty should at last prevail. Even on the lowest grounds of secular and material interests, thorn can be no doubt that a policy of perfect religious toleration is sound. Nothing can be better or mom directly calculated to rovivo tho continue° and industry of Spain. On the other hand, without at least so much of a religious revolution as liberty of conscience, the fruits of the poli tical and civil revolution would not be worth a year's purchase. If the rumour of an attempt to assassinate General Palm should bo confinuoil, it would only show that the Jesuits have not taken all their disciples sway with them into France, and would seem to suggest that the fanatical monks upon whose loyalty Queen ISA BELLA depended are be ginning to despair. Such crimes can only servo to precipitate and to broaden the course of the Revo lution. PRIM'S life is a guarantee : his death would be a consecration. THE EXPRESS, MONDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 19, 1868. GENERAL PEEL. THE announcement of General Pitat,'s with drawal front public life has been reci.ireil by men of all parties with sincere and merited re gret. Ili s retirement from the pilitical arena cannot be considered premature, since he has held a scat in Parliament for thirty-seven years. But the gallant General never appeared more vigorous than during the last session, when, amidst demonstrations of respect and sympathy from all parts of the House, be took his seat below the gangway, and separated himself from the government in which one would suppose he could never have sat without some misgivings by the side of the successful opponent and supplanter of his lamented brother. However it may become Liberals to treat General PEEL'S Toryism as out of date, it is impossible for us not to hope that in the new Parliament the prevailing Liberalism may be found not incompatible with those characteristic qualities which in General PEra were so singularly conspicuous among Tories without the courage of their con victions, and Liberals without the courage to be Tories. We shall always have plenty of mil lionaires and of self-seekers of all grades and professions, ready at a moment's notice t , ) dub themselves Constitutionalists, or Liberals, as their convenience may dictate. But of honest and highminded English gentlemen who are not ashamed of owning a conscience, or afraid of identifying personal with public honour, we trust General PEEL may not have been the last example in an English representative assembly. Ours is an ago of testimonials, and in nothing, perhaps. is the morality of a nation more clearly mirrored than in the choice of the objects of its preference. Most testi monials in England are given to results ; few to qualities. It is consoling to find that thu people of Huntingdon are not insensible to charm:- fn, which is so much out of fashion in these days. For while as a matter of form they are opening a subscription for the purpose of present ing a piece of plate to General PEEL., " as a lasting " memorial of the appreciation of his services as a " statuanan," it is probably to Lis character rather than his services, honest and conscientious as those services have been, that the testimony of respect is felt to be duo. In this sense the whole country will associate itself in feeling at least with the constituency of Huntingdon. MR. MAURICE AND HIS CBMCS. NawsrxrEns cannot take upon themselves to decide philosophical questions ; but it lies within the compass of our function to call attention to any phenomena of philosophic or other criticism which have a public interest. Such a pheno menon, one of constant recurrence, is just no w exhibited in relation to the recently-pub lished lectures on " The Conscience," by the Cambridge Professor of Moral Philosophy. We ineun the unreserved condemnation of each other by writers of totally opposite schools, on grounds of alleged misunderstanding, or misrepresentation, or both. It is proper to warn people who only read one newspaper, and who are not specially familiar with philosophic controversies, that no exclusive dependence is to be placed upon decisive partisan reviews. It is highly desirable, for example, that a person who has read Mr. J. C. MoutsoN's review (in the Fort night/y) of Mr. MAretee'S book, and the review in the Pull-mail Gazette of Saturday—both conceived in the same spirit, though the latter is the more re spectful—should also read tho letter defending Mr. ILtuatex, by the Rev. J. LL. DAVIES, in the last number of the Spectator. It is, besides, necessary to try and get it understood that although the state of the ease upon these questions is such that each side will be sure to retain its own view, there aro quite se many competent people who will think Mr. DAVIEB'S letter a complete defence (however brief) as the contrary. In must be obvious that the same original differences of mental constitution which make people take sides in philosophy will operate, in criticism, to their misunderstanding each other. All that a journalist can do to promote fair play is emphatically to warn the uninitiated that what wo have, without meaning any offence, called partisan reviews are not to be depended upon. They are, in the nature of things, nothing more thin► re statements, in terms of personal condemnation or praise, of the original abstract grounds of differ ence which divide the schools. MR. CLAD9TONe9 CAMPAION.--Great as was Mr. Olailstone's work hut week the tank he has set him self this week ia, atleast, an formidable. To-morrow he ad dreams the electors of Leigh. On Wednesday, at 2.30, be will meet the electors of Ormskirk, and, at 6.00, those of Southport.

CON TEMPORARIES. (THIS D4Y.) rus armittan stroossance. The Times traces the origin of the Spanish revo lution to the policy of Lents Philipps in relation to the Spanish marriage question, which exalted the political world some two-and-twenty yearn ago. At that time the King of the French resolved on securing the Spanish throne for his own family by the projected marriage of one of his own sons to Queen baliella,. But when this proposal was rejoutid by the cabinets of Europe, Louis Philippe surrendered the higher prim on the condition that his son, the Due de Minitpeusierr, should marry the younger sister of the Queen, and that no foreign blood should take its place on the throne of Philip V. The result was that the Queen was affianced to her cousin—a match from which it was well understood that no legitimate issue could be ex pected, and now the Bourbon monopoly of privilege has been converted into a monopoly of proscription. The least, indeed, that can be raid of the scheming .which ar ranged the Spanish marriages is that it was all thrown away ; but it may be said of it with equal truth that it ended in the confusion of its anthers and the discomfiture of all concerned. The PM maintains that the understanding existing between: Prins and Serrano could scarcely have been an iyed at without entertaining an idea essential to the completion of the revolution for which they are primarily answerable, and before the statement could be publicly appreciated our contemporary claims to have been advised that the vigorous action of the Provisional Oovornment was susceptible of an interpretation perfectly compatible with tho ostabliahment of a constitutional monarchy, and that the name of a Prince, not in any mule a claimant, would be submitted to tho Con es. That prince was King rcidinand of Portugal. It is, however, highly improbable that a prince who has had a long Peninsular expeiience will accept the Spanish crown, if offered to him, unless he be satisfied that the Spaniards as a nation are prepared to proceed in the way upon which they have entered, and to turn their revolution to a good sailabiding account. In the opinion of the Herald, King Fertlintnd is the only reeource of the Spaniards. But Ifulison's choice is not always a had one, and in King Ferdinand the Spaniards will probably find the wan in Europe boat fitted to tilltheir flu este. rux QIIMITKILLY UTIIW. The Daily Aiwa draws attention to the fact that a groat reconciliation has been brought about. The Quarterly Review has made it up with Mr. Disraeli and is now enrolled in the literary lifeguard of tory-radicalism. A year ago it denounced the conservative surrender. It has now it.olf surrendered. Just twelve mouths since, it was vituperating Mr. Disraeli, and Mr. Disraeli was laughing at it. It charged the present Prime Minister and his colleagues with having degraded politics and made upright party government impossible; with having lowered the standard of publio honour, and debauched the conscience of the nation. The whole art of goverument was, indeed, reduced to the solution el the simple problem, how not to be ousted i' Mr. Disraeli laughed at all this, as winners can afford to laugh, and made comparisons which were anything but flattering to tae Qvartrrly Recipe-. The reconciliation is, how ever, complete , . and the man who dares say sword against Mr. Disraeli lied better beware. So completely, indeed, has the vontidence of the Qeortrrty Rawer been restored, that it believes in Mr. Disraeli is the only character in which he hue never believed in himself, in that of a finan cier. the Court. 11ALMORAL CASTLE, 0.-r. 1#;.

Despatches were sent to the Governor-General of Canada, and to the Governors of Brithl Columbia and Malta. Their Royal Highnesses the Prince and Princess of Wales have kindly consented to take under their special patronage a bazaar, to be given in Liter during Easter neat, in aid of the support of the twenty-one lifeboats belonging to the National Lifeboat Institution on the comb of IN:V011 and Cornwall. The lifeboat stationed at PattlbtOW, ' , resented to the institution by the city of Bristol. is named the Albert Edward, after his Royal Highness the Duke of Cornwall. It has been announced that the Crown Prince and Prince's of Prussia will visit St. Leonard's-ou-Sea proper, or St. Leonard's West, this week. There is reason to believe that St. Leonard's owes the honour of this choice to the measures which its Commissioner; took last year to render the town worthy of royal and public confi dence. Ten thousand pounds have been spent, under the direction of Mr. Bazalgette, upon drainage works, inde pendently of the large sums that have been expended by the Hastings Commissioners upon works described a few months ago in this journal. Since the Prince and Princess of Wales visited St. Leonard's the new railway, rid Seven Oaks, has been opened, and the town is now only twelve minutes farther from London than Brighton. It is rumourcil that Prince Arthur will shortly receive a commission in the Royal Artillery, and join for duty, and that his royal highness will be attached to Colonel Tuner's battery, to learn the duties of field battery service. The Marquis of liuntly and Lord Gosforth, as we learn by the overland mail, were at the commencement of last month the guests of the Lieutenant-Uovernor of the l'unjaub.

The following pleasant peep behind tho scenes of the oourt at Biarritz is from the Gironde of Bor deaux: The Journal le Grni-re speaks with more precision of the ministerial modifications conceived by the Emperor during a month's meditation. Public liberty has nothing either to gain or to lose by these palace intrigues. It is the old story of the same set of men changing placed from the stage to the side scenes and vies eerie. The embroidery on the coat and the name of the office are the only things really altered. M. Rooker. instead of going out, as was reported, is still to remain the principal man in the ministry, only the Ministry of State being for the moment supproesed, he will take the portfolio of the In terior, in order to work the genoral elections with that plias for whiidi he is famous. M. Pinard will become Minister of Justice, and M. Barochs, who is getting too old for work, will enjoy Count Walewakes 100,0001 r. a year as • member of the Privy Council. Thus M. Itouher maintains his posi tion as Vice-Emperor, while M. Grainer de Cruna,-, , mac breakfasts with Napoleon 111. and receives imperial en couragement. All this is logical. It is, by the way, perfectly true that the Pays was very near passing into the bands of M. Ilippolyte Castillo, to the groat chagrin of the present editors. M. Oibiat, the manager of the united journals the Pays and Conatilettiomml, being offended at the rejection of his pretensions to be a government can didate, resolved to avenge himself, and, in spite of M. linard's remonstrances, convoked a meeting of share holders for the 30th of November, in order to vote that the rays should no onger belong to the company. This resolution was a heavy blow to the Cassagnacs, father and son, who between them draw one year with another an income of 60,001/fr. from the Pays. The emotion of Cass►gnac, son., was so great that he found it necessary to unbosom him self to the head of the state who, while complimenting him in terms already made public, put an end to his alarm by promising him to end the money necessary to buy the paper. It is said by people professing to be well acquainted with the details of this history that ,100,000 fr., which is the price asked, would have been deposited by his Majesty were it nut that the private purse at this moment is somewhat low. M. Rouher, who returned to Paris only on Friday, dined the same day at the British Embassy, where he was asked to meet the Earl and Countess Clarendon. The portrait of Senor Marfori is for the moment the lion of the Boulevards. It has the prominent place in the print shop windows in the goltrie des cvhtemporains, and, as such, stands out alone on a little easel a few inches in advance of the reigning sovereigns and their wives. The intimate councillor of Queen Isabella has the physique of one of those herculean footmen who stand behind Belgravian carriages. He began life as an actor, and it was during his impersonation of a knightly warrior that he made the conquest which opened him the road to for tune. The legitimist pretender to the Spanish throne has not yet left Paris, where he has been staying for more than a week. Ho lodges in a genteel, but by no means sumptuous set of apartments in the Ruo Cardinel Pesch. Charles VII. is a young man of handsome exterior and grave polished manners. The comic journals turn into ridicule the attempts of his friends in Paris to awaken sympathy for him by dwelling on his external advantages. One of them says that were the prince a bachelor, it should have suspected a certain flattering description of him, which ap peared last week, to be a matrimonial advertise ment. When receiving visitJrs, of no matter what rank, he invariably hands them a chair him self, in order to show that he dispenses for the pre sent with the strict Spanish etiquette which forbids any one to sit in the presence of the sovereign. The Friend of India says :—" The Punjabees are going in with spirit for the erection of a Theatre and Concert House at Anarkullee by a limited liability com pany with 10Ors. shares. Eighteen shares have been already subscribed and operations are to be cummenced directly other 18 shares are taken up. Unfortunately the Punjabees are always most vigorous at the outset of such undertakings." We read in the New York Time g,—" Quite • number of celebrated European se:runts will visit this country the present winter. Dr. Karl Vogt, of Geneva, the distinguished anthropologist and zoologist, author and professor, will favour our scientific classes with certain new theories and views on his favourite subjects. Professor Robert Schlagintweit, one of the three brothers who explored the Ilimalayu and a great part of Upper Asia eleven years ago, and who has for some years been engaged in publishing his contributions to geography, is coming over to deliver a series of lectures in Boston, Dr. Lemerier, of Paris, a distinguished professor of compara tive anatomy and physiology, will deliver in this city a popular course of lectures, accompanied by a large colloc• tion of elastic models. La Petrick , le, Offenbach's new burlesque opera, is only a few nights old, and it is already famous ; and, as Mdlle. Schneider takes the principal rues, a portion of fashionable Paris will crowd the \rarities for many nights to come. The musie is said to be a happy combination of the French opera comic and Spanish melodies. Through out the two acts there is not a blank of five minutes' dul ness—sprightly, bustling, pleasing; in fact the whole com position thoroughly French. Some of the orchestral ac companiments to the duets, trios, and choruses are re markably rich, a plaintive Spanish melody creeping out of the rattle and frolic of the general design. The Paris cor respondent of the Pose says :—" English mothers in Paris always ask you, can I take the young lady to any parti cular drama or opera which is the talk of the hour ; and no doubt parents and guardians will inquire if young ladies can with propriety bo taken to see Schneider, iu Offenbach's new opera. Well, I think, no ! because they would not be able to describe in society afterwards what they bad seen and heard and guessed at."

(won out OPLOPAL oeasesesessurr.) MADRID, OOP. 14. The task of reorganising the whole system of Spanish government, political, religious, and financial, is one 'of no ordinary magnitude, and we cannot expect that it can be completed in a day, or oven in a year. At the name time it is but fair to record that the present ministers appear to be exerting themselves to introduce the necessary changes as rapidly as possible. The &area dis solving the Society of Jeeus in Spain, and ordering its members to leave the country within three days, is at first sight hardly reeencileable with that complete liberty of religion which it is one of the objects of the new men to obtain and to secure. But then we must remember that the Jesuits are, by their opponents at all events, regarded rather as apolitical than as a religious society, and that the suppression of their order will throw no obstacle whatever in the way of the free profession of the Roman catholic religion, and the complete per formanoe of its rites by the ordinary priests and ministers. The Jesuits have so long exercised a oontrolling influence in the affairs of this country, and they are in the minds of the people so inti mately antedated with all the recent misgovern ment, that their expulsion seems almost a natural and necessary consequence of the revolution. The suppression of monasteries and convents has not yet been decreed ; but as the measure has boon proposed with the authority of tho Junta, and as just now public feeling runs very strongly against the maintenance of such useless and corrupting institutions, we may expect to see all these reli gious foundations dealt with in a manner which, if not quite as summary, will be quite as effectual as the treatment which has been extended to the Jeeuite. The Junta propose the extinction of all religious communities and associations which have been established or created by government since 1835, the voluntary discluistering of com munities which are not included within this description, and the abolition of all special privi leges conceded to religious corporations. The grounds upon which the Junta has recommended this sweeping measure are, that the religious asso ciations and communities sanctioned by previous governments were established with the object of creating in Spain institutions which were hostile to liberty; that they were, in fact, an integral and principal part of the shameful and oppressive system of government which the country has just thrown off ; and that without their abolition it will be impossible to consolidate the revolution. Although I am at present hardly in a position to pronounce a definite judgment upon the sound ness of these positions, I must say that they carry with them a great appearance of plausibility. Religious bigotry and exclusiveness and civil mal administration are very commonly found together; and monks and nuns are very generally, if not always, the ready tools of ministries who will enlarge their enduwitients or increase their privi leges. Ido not win!: to raise here the vexed question as to the position and authority of Father Claret, but no sane man whom I have met in Spain appears to doubt that he was in fact " a power behind the throne," and that his was an influence which was always exercised upon the side of tyranny, injustice, and oppression. Of course this view may be an altogether erroneous one, and the venerable ecclesiastic may have been the meekest and most benevolent of mankind. What is important at the present moment is, that the people of Spain, almost to a man, entertain a very different opinion, and that large numbers of them believe, and are prepared to act upon the be lief, that the only way, or at all events the best way, to secure themselves against the repetition of a similar scandal and abuse, will be to abolish the system of religious orders altogether. I should hesitate to say that this is a measure which will command universal approval. On the contrary, I have no doubt that it will be regarded by very considerable classes of the people with alarm and repugnance. Although by no means so utterly sunk in superstition as it is the custom of fanatical protestants to represent them, the Spaniards are a reverential and tradition-loving people ; and it will, I fancy, be rather a rough blow to the feelings of many women, and of not a few men, especially in the rural districts, to see the pious nuns and holy monks whom they have been accustomed to venerate all their lives reduced bylaw, by the legislation of a mere political assembly, to the condition of ordinary human beings. The shock will be a severe one; and in ordi nary times might perhaps not be borne with out resistance. Now, however, there is such a general satisfaction at the overthrow of the rule of the infamous Isabella IL, and, if one may judge from the reports which are received from all parts of the provinces, such a general confidence in the men who have wrought the beneficialchangein the national condition, that a measure which at any other time might be regarded with suspicion or aversion will probably be accepted from their hands as necessary to the completion and consoli dation of the revolution. While the government or the Junta are thus active in devising 'items for securing complete religious equality, the Finance Min ister is working hard at the measures which are required for the liberation of trade and for the re-adjustment of the system of local and general taxation, which has during the late reign pressed so severely upon the industry and energies of the Spanish people. The Gaz, etc of this morning contains a report from Senor Figucrola, setting forth an elaborate scheme for the abolition of all octrois or internal duties, and the substitution of a small personal tax. By this means the Spanish Chancellor of the Exchequer expecte to reduce the burden of these duties, while at the same time ho will, by diminishing the cost and improving the regularity of their col lection, increase the amount which is paid into the public treasury. By the extinction of the rural guard the government will effect a considerable saving. This body, which was established by Narvaez rather more than a year ago, was nomi nally intended to supply the deficiencies of the old country guards, who existed over nearly the whole of Spain, and who were paid by and were dependent upon the local communities, or the proprietors whose estate' they were engaged to watch. The real ob ject of its creation was, however, to increase the military power of the government without any apparent addition to the strength of the regular army. With this intention it was formed mainly of old soldiers, was placed under the orders of the generals of districts, and was male as much de pendent upon the War-office as any other part of the military army. Thus Narvaez, and after him Bravo, counted that in any ease of conflict with the people they would be enabled to reinforce the army with the gendarmerie, and afterwards with the rural guard, and that by thew moans they would be certain of ultimately gaining the victory. It never appears to have occurred to them that army, navy, gendarmerie, and rural guard alike —for all these forces were represented in the in surgent army at Aloolea—might become weary tff lighting for a Amnion Quoin and a cctrupt and tyrannical ministry. Now that thore further use for this somewhat hybrid force, whin" although fully armed and equippe 1 as were nominally only country watchmen, it b 1 been determined to diololvo it. The offic'ti sergeants will return to the eiril goard or it, darruerio, from which I fancy they vr.,re orig:cal: drawn, and the members of tho furors wh„ „,, with Herren° in Andalusia will, as a r,warl their ger-view, be allowod to enter that 1,, J i they desire to do so.
