The Meese( the Court of Don Carlos are at the pre-
sent day to be found in that of Queen Isabella, and
even the same persons are there to be met with. Old
Father Crib, a warm partisan of Don Carlos, is now
Cardinal Priniste of Spain; O'Donnell, the Captain
General of Madrid, is An old Carlkt officer. As have also
lawn many other persons now holding high position, in
office.

The Press is continually being prosecuted, and an free
exprmiaion of opinion is prohibited ; religious fanaticism
is rampant, imparting to the Court of queen Isabella •
great analogy to that of the last monarch
t Ito Austrian dynasty, Charles the Second ;
in the gaols of Granada, Seville, and Malaga,
in the gallica of Ceuta, are convicts of the reign of
Qiieen Isabella, whose only crime consists in reading
the Bible without notes, or in professing some slight
difference of opinion from the dogmas of the established
Church.

Thu bravest and truest supporters of the old Liberal
party have died in exile or on the scaffold, or still live
retired from political life. Individual security is at the
mercy of Govennuent agents. The national credit has
been daniaced by the bail faith of the Queen's Govern-
ment, as all holders Spanish certifiLates can vouch.
Whilst the encouragement afforded to the iniquitous
slave tr in the face of the most positive engagements
for its suppression, affords a measure of the Us-gradation
•hich an unscrupulous Government Can inflict on a
liighdilindeil and noble people. Of the gratitude of
the Queen's Government, England and France, who
afforded it their aid, Can bear testimony. In almost
every case • line of policy has been pursued by the
Queen's Governuient at variance with the views and
irterests of its tau great supporters, although these
views and interests are in reality identical with those of
the Spanish pa,ple.
.

Affording a marked contrast to that of the Queen, WO
6nil the conduct of the Prince Don Juan; who, nurtured
in the school of misfortune, and Laving lived during the
last twelve years in this country, has learned that the
real greatneas of Princes is ha:red upon the affections
of their people ; and who, frankly renouncing the
hereditary traditions of his family, has shown in all his
Manifeidoes and public acts that he is a truly enlight-
ened Priam, whoa* ideas, political, religious, and
I economical, ore identitod with those of the great pro-
gressive party of our times. The Spanish Liberals
, have selected him as their candidate for the Throne, and
sooner or later the voice of the entire nation will call
him to that place which his birth-right has already
assigned him.
In order properly to estimate the probabilities in big
favour, it is worth while to observe that the revolution
of tlenetal O'Donnell in IS'4 had for its solo object to
dethr ..... the Queen; that her continuance on the throne
was wade depend-ut upon the vote of the Cortes; and
that, altl ~,,, gh it was weak enough to place confidence
in the solemn promises she made in her humiliating
speech, to be faithful for the future to the xinititution,
a gnat nifin4cr of nicnibers of Me Cortes voted for ker
dtpnsit ion.
Every day the absolutist tendencies of the Queen be-
conie more pionotineed, and her conduct to the party of
progress inure deceitful and treacherous. This severance
ist all connection with the Court daily adds to the
strength and tsipularity of the Liberals ; no that it has
become a limiter of certainty that the find shock or
political commotion will put an end to the reign of the
Queen, thus closing for ever the list of those in relic
of Spain who have looked upon the Spaniards as their
property.
by • natural death, by a revolution, by the first out-
break or pronunciitiniento, an event no frequent in
Spanish politics, the Queen must lose her throne, and in
any such event the Prince Dun Juan is the only person
who can occupy it; being at the same time the
rightful heir and the holder ef the suffrages of the
Spanish nation.
Prince Don Juan will inaugurate • new era in Spanish
politics. His accession bi power will afford a guarantee
for the development of liberal ideas in the interned
government of the country, whilst his foreign policy
will he in harmony with that of the nations of Western
Europe.
. . . . .

Accepting the revolutionary attitude hich the illegal
acts id the preacnt Coverninent not only justify
but I' le•I him to take. the Prince ha., resolved to be
prepared for a contingency which any day may bring
about, mid in which funds must nectisaarily b wanted.
With these views we look for support in the distribu•
tion of this LOOM -

To all interi•ded in the peas's, of Enrope,as the prompt
•scs•nNion 4 the Priece to tho throne c‘n alone.in such
a contingency no must soon arise, save us from the
oomplicreions that in the course of political events
would otherwise arise.
To all friends Of civil and religious liberty, as bis
principles are identical with their own.
To the opponents of slavery, who will find in the
Prince a warm friend, and an energetic suppressor
of this debasing traffic.
To all creditors of the Spanish Government, whose
just claims would be at once recognised and dis-
charged.
To the friendn of commercial and industrial progress,
none of the first cares of the new Government
would be to the remodelling of the tariff upon
free trade principles, and the development of the
immense natural rrsources of the kingdom.
And finally, to all who desire fur a small outlay to
irequirs, at • period more Or kill remote, but
almost certain to arrive, an enormous return.
It only now renmaimmu for us to explain the financial
position of the Loan.
The Bonds are an obligation to pay their amount to
the bearer in Crown lands or houses, with interest,
from Ist July, 1861, at the rate of 3 per cent per
annum, on the lICC.SiOII of the Prince Don Juan de
liorbou to the Spanish throne.

The total amount to be issued hi in no case to
exceed one half of the value of the lands, forests,
dwelling.houses. mines, and other properties belonging
to the Royal Patrimony, and which are not required
for the necessities, decorum, or dignity of the Crown.
*The whole of this property, which is of immense
value (although now, owing to the corruption and pecu-
lation of the administrators, producing • comparatively
small revenue to the Crown), is pledged as a guarantee
for this Loam •
So 511011 after the proclamation of Don Juan as King
of the Spaniards as may be, the Crown lands and pro-
perties, with the exception of the Royal palaces and
residences, will be offered for sale by public auction,
and Now the Bonds of the present Loan hare been all
recooped, no other riper or money will ic received in
paynield for the same.
The Stock will be accepted at its full nominal value,
with the accumulated interest at 3 per cent., from lit
July, 1861, to the day of liquidation.
By this operation the Crown properties, which are
now chiefly a source of wealth to corrupt adminis-
trators and Court favourites, will be brought into active
eliployment, and made to further the material pros-
perity of the nation, instead of being as now so many
drags upon its progremi. The money required will be
raised in a manner eutsiling no addition to the Public
ISebt. And the combination devised is of such a
cature, that the holders of the Bonds of the present
Loan are alinost certain to realise an enormous profit on
their investment,
Since there can be no doubt of the avidity with which
the Crown properties will be purchased, and since no
one but the holders of the Bonds of the present Lean
will be in a position to purchase, it follows that the
inevitable competition for their possession will enhance
the pries of the Bonds much beyond their full nominal
value. In this way foreign holders, who may not be
disposed to purchase lands or other property in Spain,
are certain to derive their due advantage in the shape
at the increased value of their Stock. It is also clear
that as sales progress, and as the Bonds in circulation
shall have consequently diminished, the ultimate
holders must obtain an enormous premium for their
invesiment ; every sale, and consequent absorption of
the Bowls, adding materially to the value of those still
outstanding.
We are authorised to issue 4,000 Bonds of 1,000 dots.
(equal to £2lO each,) at 10 per cent, of their nominal
value (say £11).

Subacnbers must forward the 1111011 of £ll to us, for
each Bond they intend to subscribe for, by enclosing
111 Us, Bank.notes (in registered letter), Checks or
Post-016w orders payable to our firm (the two latter to
be crossed), or by personal payment of the amount at
our Counting House. 36, Cannon Street, London, E.C.
