SPAIN.

MADRID, Pea. 12.
The government is doing its utmost to prevent all
allusion to the regicide from being made in the op-
position prints, no ono believing the declaration of
the assassin that he had no accomplices. There are
many reasons to suspect the existence of a widely-
spread clerical conspiracy, for letters from Navarre,
received yesterday, confirm what I stated the other
day, that on the very day on which the priest drew
his dagger on the Queen, the news of the Queen's
death was widely circulated, and hand-bills were
stuck on the walls, in which the king consort wu
proclaimed as regent. Another fact has also aug-
mented the fears of the lovers of constitutional
liberty. Balboa, the brother of that sanguinary ge-
neral who figured as minister of war in the
ministry which had a one day's existence two
years ago, and who is suspected of being a
nominee of the king Consorts creatures has been
summarily dismissed, and ordered to proceed forth-
with to Madrid from Gerona, of which important
city he was civil governor. The Ileral4lo, in noticing
this fact, observes that everybody knows and says
why it has taken place but that no one dare print it.
In a state of things in which the ministry find it ex-
pedient to hide from the public what is going forward,
tt has been found necessary to appoint a new censor
'of the press. The new functionary discharges his
duties so as to give as much trouble as possible. If
a newspaper has not presented its first sheets at his
office by eight in the morning, it is not permitted to
circulate during the day, though it publish but ex-
tracts from the Gazette; so that the sudden illness
of a printer's journeyman, or an accident in the ma-
chinery, may keep 3,000 subscribers without their
journal.
The Queen is much better in health, but her
spirits arc completely fallen, and, but for the energy
of Queen Christina, there is good moon to believe
she would abdicate, for she has pronounced the word
several times since her recovery, saying she will
never bear to lead the life of Louis Philippe, and be
ever on the look out against Albacete daggers. You
are aware that there was a Carlist guerilla chief of
no small celebrity in the civil war named the Curate
Merino. When Queen Isabella was a child, her
attendants were accustomed, when she was forward,
to say to her, "Take care, Isabellita, Curate Me-
rino is coming." On receiving the visit of one of
her attendants of that period, the Queen said, "You
see, Margaret, Curate Merino came at last."
Immense preparations are being made for the day
on which her Majesty appears in public. Everybody
is preparing to make some kind of manifestation to
their beloved sovereign. It is said that she will
appear on Sunday; but, as the weather has sud-
denly become cold and windy, it is doubtful whether
the physicians will permit her to go out. Ihe Gantt*
of to-day contains a bulletin, statingethat the Queen
is going on well. It also contains the following
letter from the Queen to Bravo Murillo, President of
the council :

Bravo Murilier—Petwainga before Divine Providence for
His ideal preemies se i blahs Grouts, my heart was
moved before the deemetreeks of love and loyalty which I
receive every memeed bum my subjects. These demon-
strations, however, mists be esemestmed as an object that
would symbolise in a permemet Eraser the religious and
beneficent character of the limmieeds. With this end in
view, I desire that the pememmeet take the initiative to
open a voluntary asbeeripelee. iteifwodset of which is

ratios of the bush oietF•balleml hter. eel of

Here follows the decree ordering the immediate
building of an hospital, to be called the Princess'
Hospital, to be built by public subscription, and in
the event of there not being enough winey the
Queen will give the rest. Three other hospitals aro
to be subscluently constructed. A board is formed
for the receiving of the subscriptions, which are not
to be more thin 100 reeds each person. The sub-
scribers' names are to be engraren on the hospital
walls. Another decree dismisses Fernando Balboa
from the governorship of Gerona. Majors-General
Lersundi and the Duke of Rianrares (Christina's has-
, band) have, by a decree of yesterday, been promoted
to lieutenant generalships.
The lle►aldo says it can announce, from good
authority, that Lord Howden, the British ambassador
at Madrid, has reci iced from his Sovereign the order
of the Bath, in ackno*ledgment of his exertions in
re-establishing harmony between the British and
Spanish governments.

A struggle for infiu,noe is now going! forward in our
