SPAIN.

MADRID, Ocr. 29.
A royal decree, dated Oct. 24, declares that all
titles granted by foreign sovereigns and governments.
comprising those conferred by the Queen's grand-
father' Charles 111., as King of Naples, arc to be re-
puted foreign titles, and are to give none of the
rights or prerogatives appertaining to those of Cas-
tillo. The decree further declares that foreign titles
cannot be used in Spain without permission, which
must be renewed in case of the devolution of any such
title to a successor. Ambassadors, representatives of
foreign courts, and travellers are excepted from the
decree.

The Pope's nuncio had a long conference to-day
with the Marquis de Miraflores, at the ministry for
foreign affairs. The various questions relative to
the concordat were doubtless the subject of the inter-
view.

M. Ernest Baroche is at Madrid, to terminate the
negotiation relative to the intended international
copyright treaty with France.
the Minister of Public Works is paying much at-
tention to the various railway projects. Tho lines
from Alar to Santander, and from Aranjuez to the
sea, will it is thought be the first to be proceeded
with.

M. Can Cliet, the delegate of the Dutch holders,
writes to the Ileralflo that he is a total stranger to
all that has been published fur a long time past
about the settlement of the debt, either iu the
Madrid newspapers or others.
The Epoca says:
M. Dummies Bravo goes to Naples on the 3rd of Nov.
lie has in his pocket his nomination as ambassador to the
Two Sieilies, signed by M. Bertran de Lys. The Marquis
de Miratlores, who had at first refused to concur in this
step, wing that by sending an ambassador to that court
Spain gives way to the King of Naples, instead of receiving
satisfaction from him, has yielded to the opinion of the
council. Why did not the Marquis de Miraflores, instead
of falling so short of all his noble antecedents, rather imitate
the conduct of M. Artela ? Does he think that his presence
in the ministry may prevent a catastrophe ?

Many of the journals had announced that M.
Pachecho had been appointed minister plenipoten-
tiary of Spain to the court of Rome. Tho Constitte-
clonal mvs it is authorised to state that no such pro-
position has been made to M. Pacheco.

ITALY.

LOMBARDY.

The Austrian government has prohibited, through-
out the Lombard-Venetian kingdom, the conveyance
of the Piedniontese journal Opinions through the
post, not only for the interior, but on its passage to
foreign countries. The government has carried its
spite to such absurd lengths as to prohibit subscrip-
tions from being received at the Milan post•office,
paid on account of the Opiiiimie for Austrian news-
papers, and papers addressed to the Opinionc from
being forwarded to the office of that journal. The
Opinions is not a radical, but, as every one knows, a
monarchic constitutional organ.

corded of it.
