The following is the previous
furred to in the above letter:

The present condition of Bpsia is lamentable.
Even the millions that were to have been epread
over the land by the Pontine, the Prows, the
Gauthier', aid others, are held beck, so utterly
unsubstantial is the government. The financial state
of France, it is clear, would have rendered the fol.
Blmeit of French engagements towards Spain impo►
sible; so that the disorder in Madrid is a
happy edneidenee for MM. Pamir* and Co.
But my purpose at the present moment is simply
to present to your readers a plain statement of a
family quarrel between Queen Isabella's bighead and
his family. In the latest published oorreepondenee
from Madrid, I remark the following passage:
" The Infanta Donna Josefa left for Ban Sebastian
on the 4.11, accompanied by her husband, M. Gull y
Bests.'

Permit me to explain this departure, as it hu
been explained to me in a recent letter from Madrid,
upon the authority of which firm reliance may be
placed. The story is one that hu created profound dis-
gust, sad to it the Queen may attribute the coldness
with which her eubjects received her a few days ago,
when, dressed in the costares of a Spanish general,
she appeared at a review. The decree banishing the
Infanta has been, I fear, the subject of mistakes,
which the following narrative may clear up.
The Princess Josefa married Don Gull y Rents.
This gentleman was known ass writer of some merit,
as a dspsty of the Cortes—as a man, in short, whine
influence, exercised on the Prograsista side, might be
dangerous to the governing power. This
brought Don Ouell no pecuniary advantage, for
muses ease to him sass dot. Five years after the
celebration of the marriage Don Francisco, the king's
father, sad father also of the Princess Janis, fell in
love with a courtesan of low degree, known se La
Redondo. This lady had been in the chorus of the
Thilitre do Cirque. Her antecedents did not, how-
ever, prevent Don Francisco, to the great scandal of
Spanish reepectabilif y, from marrying her. La Redondo
became the mother-in-law of the king. Don Fru-
risco, whose daughter had been sent to her husband
portionless, was yet able to load the family of his
sew wife with gifts. It was at this juncture that
the Princes Josefa appealed to the Queen,
her sister-in-law, and at the same time
to her own father, claimiag the fortune of her mother,
which was her legal right, and for which she war,
justified in making a demand, seeing that her father
was rich enough to be liberal to the family of La
Redondo. But the claim, in the hands of the meet ex-
pert advocate in Madrid, to whou sagacity it had loses
confided, was left unsatisfied, the princess being
appeased from time to time by her lawyer with the
hops of an early and amicable arraugement. It was
at last perceived that these delays Wirer destined to
be stretched beyond the limit at which the
law fixed the validity of a claim j but
twenty-four hours before this limit was reached
the other , infante, sisters of Jonah, entered an
action for the recovery of 21 millions of reels,
being their heritage from their mother, as well as
the sums and properties that had been taken from
their mother's will. The judge before whom this
action was tried acknowledged the validity ef the
princesses' claims, and accepted the Weeks of
mediator between ;hem and the royal family. Bat
this progress in no way suited the soseesiesse of
the King, seeing that the pressure ot his sisters
upon thew father would compel him to return told*
the sass which he owed him, and particularly lha
inWioss which Bravo Murillo bad advanced se
the man which the father owed to him shellhale
and which the King holds. This was, however,
the property of the princesses; and the King
illegally holds the rightful portions of his deism
The King, pushed by his sisters into a liras%
resolved upon having them exiled—one he
ose place, and another in an opposite &wades.
&exacted this act of shameless despotism frem the
Qum; who, in her turn' forced it upon her minis—
tses The infante were ordered to leave Madrid
within 48 boors—cot with respect nor with conside-
ration, but as subjects who had not merited well 41
flair essatry.
The Ideate Isabella, in the eighth month of
bee possess*, ie exiled to ranada; the In-
fanta leafs is sent to SaGn Sebsetian ; while
Primes Hearique, the King's brother, who claimed
with his sisters, is exiled from his country,
having declined to repair to the island of Majorca.
This scandalous passage in the contemporary history
of Spain will, we trust, make men even as adventur-
ed, as MM. Perigee and Pita pause before they
change a single 20-franc piece more into Spanish reels.
The King's esedoct is not only dishossst it is un-
gratefaL Far years have passed derisi which be
MS held his sisters' nosey with ispasity, and
daring which they have been at his service. He
forgot even the heroic bearing of his sister Josefa in
the revolution of 1854, when she presented her-
self on horseback before the troops at Valladolid,
and sexed them to cry "Long life to the Queen r
The tribunals, it is said, will, ere long, give publicity
to this great scandal.
