THE WEEKLY PRESS.

The Alenerlay Review says the pro cimate caul°
of the revolution in Spain is to ho Lintel in lie tact that
the advipers of Queen Isabella have found them viva.,
obliged to go on, stop after step, prowribity, &snits,. eking,
and exiling, until they have swollen the -111:01 n? th it
enemies to such en extent that they stand al Jolutely alone
with the hand of cvery.ine main.t them. The r..ra .ter
causes are disapprobation of the conduct of the [Wen, and
antagonism to the priests. The Quoen hasthrown herielf
into the power of an esclusive and extreme fiction, who
I eve warred so fiercely against all that differed from them
t! at they have gradually made and conenlidated a power
width premwee to be too strung for them. The present is
iladinguished from previous Spanish revolutions, ton, by
the feet that it is distinctly directed agsir-st the Q teen
end her dynasty. The Alstiirdey Review does not
bah re that utalication in favour of her e
would alve the difficulty, but thinks that the
elevation of the Duke and Duchess of Mnatpensisr to the
throne would be by far the best end of the revolution, if
At we'e possible. At the same time, it would be incisions
for one sister to prvtit by the disasters of auJilier ; and
Pie Emperor of the French would 4trenuluAly Vp.l3t, the
selection of an Ur Lana prince as sovereign in a country
se Ewer hire.

The foods* leeiew &scribes the ri.irg es a movement
of the townspeople in alliance with a sect:inn of the army
and navy. The unpopularity of the Queen has long been
Whiling fere., and certainly no m..uarcb has ever tried
hard. r to wear out the loyalty, and even the patience, of a
people. The Spaniards are a race easily governed; per.
'mai loyalty to the occupant of the throne is with them
• 'mission carried to the limits of ahuirdity; and the sub-
reissien of Dou Carlos in 1840 left Isabella in undisputed
possoision of a crown to which ',be might have added
lustre, bad her sense been equal to her opportunities. But
ehe had an evil genius in her own mother, who ha. con-
timidly driven her along that path of absolutimu which
bee now conducted to tho edge of an etym. With rogue'
to the peeetlar interpoeition of Fran.," our rota, mp.rary
does not see much ground for such an appeeluntsittn. The
Emperor would have little to gain by such an inter-
fertucr, while the difficulties it would ocerideu are tic
te lions to he lightly fac,d. _ .
