TUBBD4i; JULY 22.

CONSTITUTIONAL Government has, for the moment
at least, been put down at Madrid, by base and long
proneditatd treachery. FSCOSURA. Minister of the
Interior, proposed to meet the Intrigues of the Aber:t-
hirsts, which have been convulsing the preening, by
promulgating the Constitution and dissolving the
Constituent Cortes. Hereupon O'Dorouria declared
that he could no longer remain a member of the same
cabinet with Bsoosuaa, but refused to tender his
resignation except, at a parsons' interview with the
Climax. That interview having taken place, in pre-
ono of O'DONNELL'S oolimpres, the Quetta, rather
than allow him to resign, accepted the resignation of
all the other Ministers. The first step taken by the resi-
duary Minister was to inns a programme of a neweabi-
net, which was immediately withdrawn sad another
substituted for it. It is now admitted that the names
of two Liberal. statesmen were placed on the second
list without their knowledge, and that they
have refused to accept office under O'DoNnam..
The first advice tendered to the Quin& by
the sew Ministry was to declare the whole o
Spain in a state of siege. The advice was
accepted, and embodied in a decree which was pub-
lished a few hours after the nomination of the O'Dox-
NALL Cabinet. As soon as these proceedings were
known, as many members of the Cotes as could be
got together assembled ander the presidency of Ge-
Mini INFANTE, and drew up a protest spinet the
O'Doxicau. Ministry. They were dispersed by force
of arms. The National Guard refused to recognise the
new Ministers; a fire was opened upon them by'
the troops of the vile, and after twenty-four hours'
hard fighting they were driven from all their posts,
and the survivors disarmed. Three things are clear
in this aarrative :—Fint, that O'Donxext acted with
the onsivanes of the Court; second, that he had
concentrated beforehand a strong fool of the troops
of the line in Madrid, to support his movement ; and,
third, that his object has been to prevent the pro.
molgation of the Constitution, and place Spain foe an
indefinite period under a military government.
How far he is likely to succeed in hie nefarious
project is, sad probably will continue for some
time to be, a matter of uncertainty. It appears
to be beyond a doubt that the whole of
Arnica stands eat against him, ander Gomm,
a man of inflames end energy. It is also
meowed that kis proftedinge are disapproved
of in a majority of the provinces. The
streeph of the Spanish limy, it is said, does not at
this moment exceed 60,000 se,. Ot these about
20,000 are sestioned at Madrid, and 15,000 at Bar-
celona. Not a man can be spared from either of
these placer. O'Dornexu., thereto*, in the event of
the people rising in arms spinet him throughout
Spain, has nothing to oppose to them bet a move-
able colema of 26,000 men, even though the whole
army should adhere to him, and he contrive to draw
together the scattered detachments. Meanwhile the
dispersed members of the Cortes are usembling at
Saragossa, where General FALCON is said to be at the
head of 20,000 men. Oa each scanty data it would
obviously be rash to venture upon any cosjeotnne as
to the result of the struggle.
Whether Spain is to be ruled by a parliamentary
Government, or a military despotism, it is for the
Spaniards themselves to decide. All that foreigners
have any right to insist upon is, that the decision
shall be lett to the Spaniards themselves. And with
reference to this pint, we confess that we view with
deep distrust the prompt despatch of French troops
to the Spanish frontier, and the mysterious silence
enforced by the French Government with regard to
the movements in Spain. The meagre information
that is allowed to transpire through the columns of
the French peers, and the organ of the French
Ministry in the Lagoa press, is fragmen-
tary in the extreme, and so coloured as to
betray a leanieg to O'Domexu.. The subject was
not even alluded to in the columns of the Ilioxiteur
till yesterday, when a brief To Drum was daunted
for the Nunes of O'Doxtrati. Such conduit on the
part of NAPOLEON 111. is not free from suspicion. He
cannot pretend that there is a shadow of danger of any
aggregate on the French territory from Spain. Are hie
troops mastered on the frontier to drive back any Li-
berals who may seek to 'sues, in order that they may
fall into the halide of 0 Annum. P If hie designs in
concentrating a force on the Spanish frontier are such
as he due avow, why is the movement shrouded in
each mystery P He cannot afford to brave suspicion
epee this object. For more than three months
rumours have been in circulation—emanating

is some oases from high eourome—to the
effect that the French Government was esmstly
Instigating the Court of Spain to attempt a
coup deist. And it °enact be denied that the crisp
dela which has now actually been carried into effect
at Madrid, beau a singularly aloe resemblance to
the Parisian comp cretat of th 3 2nd of Dtcember. It is
impossible not to connect these indications with the
tone of menace in which the Belgian Government
wee a few soothe ago addressed by the Government
of France, bassos it did not take 'measures to subvert
the oonstitutionel liberty of the Press; and with the
doubts which prevail u to the siseerity of the Ex-
!ma in urging the withdrawal of foreign trope
from the States of the Church and the Italian
Duchies.

With sincere pleasure we see it stated that the
English Minister at Madrid has not presented him-
self at Court since the soup ditat. We trust the
English Cabinet have adopted the same course as
their repvesentative at Madrid ; and that they have,
moreover, insisted upon obtaining a positive declare.
Lion from their Ally, the Emperor of the FRENCH,
that he will not interfere by fora of arms is the
affairs of the Peninsula. It would be disgraceful to
an English Ministry to connive at the propaga-
tion of comp d'etat Governments by military in-
tervention.

We feed that it is oar defy to speak plainly on this
momentous subject at such a crisis. We feel equally
the importance of abstaining, at this stage of the pro-
ceedings, from peritoneum appeals. But we do hope
that some indopendeot Member of Parliament will
before the session closes, afford Ministers an oppor:
tensity of stating what they know respecting the
movements in France and Spain, and the light In
which they view them.

PINDIIIO the inquiry which the military author'.
ties of Ireland are males into the mutiny of the
Tipperary BMWs at Nemeth, it is searady possible
to trace with certainty the spirit of lontrordinetion

. .
which broke oat so unexpectedly is that regiment to
its more remote sad deeper cause. It may be that

it is owing to those habit, of lawlessness for which
Tipperary has always been notorious, or to the weak-
ness with which the regiment wu commanded, or
to real grounds of complaint among the men. Bat, so
far as the fasts of the am are known, this seems
certain—that the affair originated in a transaction in
which the private immediately concerned had not
the shadow of right on his side; while the combina-
tion of his company, and their attack on the guard-
hoops to release him, are evidence that a spirit did
exist In the regiment totally inconsistent with mili-
tary discipline and subordination.
It appears to-be the opinion of some of our contem-
poraries theta widaspread dissatisfaction existed in this
regiment, ankeziste in the Militia generally—first, as
to the fact, and secondly as to the terms, of their dis-
bandment. There does not seem to us to be the
shadow of a foundation far this opinion; and after
the industrious meaner in which the Irish lords and
representatives resisted a strict adherence to the law
of the land as to disembodiment on the cessation of the

war, the absence of any such general dissatisfaction is
the more remarkable and encouraging. That there
was no spirit of this sort in the Tipperary regi-
ment is established by the fact that the resist-
ance given to the terms of disembodiment was
confined to one man, and though his
confinement to the gaited-house led to an
attack by his comrades and the subsequent fatal
collision between the regiment and the QUEEN%
troops, there is not a scintilla of proof to connect
this mniiny with the terms d disembodiment. It
.. _ . _ . ... _ . . .

Hee, we fear, much deeper, and will be probably
found in the native turbulent., of the " boys " of
Tipperary, or in the manner in which the regiment
was commanded.

Tho terms on which an Irish militia regiment
ought to be disbanded, and on which all well-con-
ducted regiments are disembodied, were well de-
scribed, the other day, by Colonel LA Toneax, in his
parting address to the City of Dublin Militia; they are,
in substance, these :—Bach private gets a suit of
clothes, his ameesaries, one-half the years bounty,
and fourteen days' pay ; he returns, however, to the
Quearr's stores his arms and accoutrements, his dress
clothing, great coat, shako, and knapsack. One
luxurious Tipperary " boy " in the regiment of that
county was, it stems, not content with a single, and
that his ordinary or fatigue, pair, of trousers; he in-
sisted on also carrying off a second pair. On being
ordered to deliver them up the fellow resolutely
refused, and for that breach of military discipline he
wee marched off to the guard-home. His confine-
went roused the mutinous 'pith which bad lain slum-
bering in the regiment; the guard-hones was attacked;
the officers of the regiment turned out to have
little or no influence over their men; a QUEZZA
regiment had to be called is, and the fatal affray
which it now undergoing investigation followed, of
which we shall only at present say that in every
respret the conduct and behaviour of the QUEEN'S
troops of all ranks were the vet) reverse of those of
the Tipperary Militia.
Seem regiments on their disbandment have not, it
is notorious, received the half of the bounty then
payable, or rather, to speak more accurately, the men
have not; for the amount has in all cam been duly
paid by the Treasury to the regiment. Bat the
fault in all such ayes obviously lies with the officers
of the regiment. When the commanding officer of
the regiment has been a soldier of experience sad
efficiency, no difficulty on this point has arisen ; but
where the colonel is new to the command of a ngi-
meat or where the clear and lucid circulars of the
War Department have been misread or neglected,
then on disbandment the men have, In some cases,
not been entitled to receive in cash the whole of the
bounty payable.

The as; stands that. Every private is furnished
with a book, and in it is debited against him the
cost of any wilful damage to his arms or accoutre-
ments and of small supplies of neaseariea. A certain
fixed amount of credit is in this way opened for each
company, and for its payment the Captain is liable.
He consequently hes or ought to have an interest
in keeping down the amount. This he an
easily do by proper inspection of his men's
kits, and enforcing that most useful of all kinds
of economy to the poor which is embodied in the
proverb that a stitch in time laves nisei. He ought
to have also an interest in seeing that the amount at
each man's debit in his book is undergoing liquidation.
Furthermore, it is the especial duty of the Colonel,
whenever the balance in the regimental ledger
against the regiment or any of its companies ap-
proaches or exceeds the maximum, to take the most
peremptory steps for its gradual redaction and dis-
charge by placing the men indebted under stoppages,
When this hu been done with a firm and vigorous
hand, the consequence has been that when the
period of disbandment arrived, the debt of the
regiment has been wholly discharged, and the men
entitled to every penny of the bounty payable on
discharge. Thus, for example, in the case of the
West Suseex regiment, the Duke of RICHMOND, an
expekenerd old soldier, had had it under proper atop•
pages for two mouths previously to its disembodi.
went, and to every men in It the bounty dos to him
was paid. In such a regiment there was not of course
any grumbling, murmuring, or dissatisfaction; and
accordingly from the Duke of RICHMOND not a
word of reproach or objection to the course adopted
by the Waralice bee been heard is the Hass of
Lords.

In the cuss, however, of Militia regiments having
Colnnen without experience, with small intelligence
and little foresight, who could read the plain and
simple circulars of the War-vice only to misunder-
stand and misapply them, in each came these
means of reducing and discharging the regimental
debt have not been applied, and when the period of
disbandment arrived, there was no alternative but to
apply the bounty, or so much of it aa was requisite,
to the payment of the men's balances, or to make ill-
commanded regiments a present of a large sum of '
public money, which in all properly-commanded
regiments has been faithfully refunded.
This is the explanation why in some regiments'
the men on disembodiment have received their full
beauty in cash, and why in others they have not. In all,
the same rate has been paid to the regiment for bounty ;
whether the full rate ruches the men depends on the
way the regiment has been commanded; and as a
general rule it may be taken as a very good test of
the condition of the regiment. With any disappoint-
mouton this head it will now be apparent the War
I Department has literally nothing to do. It is power-
lees to control the Colonels in the matter of stoppages ;
it has paid the full bounty ; but it is u much bound
to take oars that the regimental debt to the public is
discharged on disbandment, as it is that the arms,
accoutrements, tunics, and shakoes are placed in storr.
When, then, our Tory contemporaries speak of the
m in which the War Department has
cheated and deceived the Militia regiments, they refer
only to regiments ill commanded, and to all who
really understand the subject their ensure falls not
on the Government, but on the Cabmen of the regi-
ments whose men have not received the full bounty.
For the appointment of the Waal. of Militia
regimento--as, indeed, for all the ellsore—the Lords
Lieutenants of counties are ruponsible. If, however,
we really wish our Militia to beams a thoroughly
efficient name. emu alteration is tile respect is re-
quired. We Oft admit the utility of baying deem

of local oonsequenos and connexions, and we are as
much opposed to any augmentation of the military
patronage of the Crown u any one; but clearly some
security is neceestu7 that the commanding officer of a
Militia regiment should have some military expe-
rience. If, then, it be 'inadvisable to give the Horse
Guards or the War Department a veto on their sp-
pointmente, let as at all events require some military
qualification—either lengthened militia, or shorter
regular, servicc—in gentlemen occupying pests in
which they have to manage some hundreds of not
gorily managed men.
