MADRID, Dal SI.
The journals publish a manifesto from the Duke
of Montpensier, dated Lisbon, the 19th inst. The
duke explains the purpose of his recent journey
to Spain, which be justifies on the plea that be
was anxious se a citizen to =erase his right to
offer, as in duty bound, his services to his country
as a soldier in order to aid in its defence against
an outbreak which he believed had been instigated
by the reactionary party. He simply intended to
serve as combatant, and gave no preliminary
official notice of his step, as it was
his intention to throw off his incognito
so soon as he should have reached the scene of
contest. Upon his arrival at Cordova he dis-
covered that the true aim of the insurrection was
not of a reactionary character, and h• returned to
Portugal. The letter declares untrue certain
accusations which had been raised against him,
and proceeds to recall the fact that he wished to
have taken part in the war against Morocco, as
oonld be proved from official documents ; further,
that be and his consort, the Infanta, had
unceasingly endeavoured to induce the late
Queen Isabella, in 1869 and in 1886, to
follow a liberal policy, efforts which un-
fortunately had been unavailing. He respects
the principle of universal suffrage, as the
source of the legitimate claim of a nation to
share the political administration of a free country.
The duke says that, notwithstanding the fact that
be himself is a devoted catholic, ho wishes that
everyone in Spain should worship God aooording
to the promptings of his conscience, with as
mach liberty as is enjoyed by Spanish
resident, in London, Edinburgh, or Geneva. The
letter concludes with the assurance that the
writer is not influenced by ambition; that, in
fact, be covets nothing save once more to belong
to Spain—the new Syain of liberty. The
Impartial comments on the above, and asserts
that the candidature of the Duke of Montpensier to
the throne of Spain has recently undergone a
fundamental change, in conformity with advice
tendered by some statesmen of note. The duke
would resign his candidature in favour of his eldest
eon, under the guidance of a regency of three
members. Such an arrangement would afford
sufficient time for all questions of importance to
be settled in such a manner as would not preju-
dice the prestige of the future monarch. The
Impartial states that at Barcelona, of forty-seven
successful candidates for municipal offices, thirty
were republicans.
The details of the election at Madrid show that
24,000 votes were given to the monarchical can-
didates, while only 3,600 were recorded in favour
of therepublioans. Thepaper asks whist has become
of the 60,000 persons who took part in the recent
republican demonstration in the capital.

The MAYOZ (Mr. W. Woodall) presided. He said the
abject which bad brought them together was one it
which.lie took a deep interest, for he bad long felt, from •
somewhat extensive tiognaintanos with working men, that
more wiener or • knowledge of principles was required
is their work. (Hear, hear.) Through the want Cl
this knowledge matedal was frequently used where
it was not required, or larger than was neces-
sary, and left out where it was most wanted.
Now it was to give the working man a more thorough
mastery of his work that the government bad proposed
• scheme which Mr. Buckmaster would explain, and any
assistance in his power was at the command of the
Mechanic' lastituts, if they would organise classes for
scientific instruction, for this appeared to him the proper
duty and work of such institutions. (Cheers.)
Mr. Hucxsissam then delivered an address, showing
the industrial and educatimial value of scientific know-
ledge, illustrating, by numerous familiar examples.
the applications of geometry and mechanics in the
industrial arm, and concluded by urging the
friends of education to co-operate with the de-
partment in diffusing throughout the country • more
general knowledge of science and art. (Loud cheers.)
The MATOB, in proposing a vote of thanks, said the
lecture of Mr. Huck:master could not fail to be of the
greatest service. as • university man he had listened to
many lectures, but he had never listened to one with
more pleasure or profit. (Hear, hear.) The great facili-
s now offered by the government he felt sure were not
sufficienUy understood.

BERLIN, Dna. 19.
The Berlin and Vienna papers are in anything
but a Christmas humour with each other. In-
trigues, real or supposed, in Roumania, suspicions
of some deep policy in the east of Europe, or in
the south of Germany, form the subjects of attack
and recrimination, and war to the pea has become
a standing institution of late. I doubt if anybody
here believes that all this smoke has much danger-
ous Are behind it. It requires no profound poli-
tical sagacity to see that the maintenance of peace
is so unquestionably the interest of both parties,
that the breach of it would be a reasonable ground
for commending a bellicose statesman on either
side to the care of his friends.

Till a few days ago, there really seemed a fair
chance of our having got to the end of that un-
happy question of liberty of speech in the
Chembers. But the fates, in the form of the First
Chamber, have decreed otherwise. The govern-
ment had declined to agree to any interpretation
of article 84, through a resolution of the Chamber,
as this would be equivalent to setting aside
a judgment of the Supreme Court. A
compromise was therefore agreed on, and
the government consented to support the motion
of Herr von Guerard, by which the article of the
constitution of the Bund was to be substituted for
article 84 of the Prussian constitution. The
Second Chamber accepted the motion definitively
on Wcduesday, and the next day it was brought
before the Pint Chamber. Count Bismarck
strongly urged the !wive to confirm the vote of
the Lower House, not because he altogether ap-
proved perfect liberty of speech in itself, but
because compromises were often necessary in
politics, and he considered the continuance of the
conflict on this point a greater evil than any that
could arise from the measure itself. Count Lippe
moved an amendment forregulating the question by
a new law, which should put it in the power of the
house to expel, either for a time or altogether,
any member who should abuse the liberty of
speech. Many conservative members spoke
against the Guerard motion on that and the fol-
lowing day, and it was ultimately negatived by
a majority of 72 to 41. It is impossible to believe
for a moment that the liberals will accept this
decision as final, or that the conservatives have
obtained more than a momentary victory.
In addition to the damage done to life and pro-
perty in the towns, the storm of the 7th inst. has
left dill stronger evidences of its fury in the royal
forests. In a great many districts the num-
ber of trees blown down is so great as to exceed
the quantity marked for felling in the course o
the year. A celebrated oak at Lodebur's Hof, in
Hanover, which was reputed to be a thousand
years old, has also fallen a victim to the late hurri-
cane. It was 40 feet in circumference near the
Found, and some of its branches were three feet
in diameter. It stood near the mansion-house,
and happily fell in the only direction in which it
could do no harm to the neighbouring buildings.

Mr. Bzcznsarza, in reply to the vote of thanks, said:
Closely connected with the subject I have brought under
your consideration, there is another in which I take •
good drat of interest, and on which I have been asked to
ray a few words. It is proposed next year to hold in
London a Workmen's International Exhibition. We
lave received much encouragement from the workmen of
France, Spain, Germany, Italy, Switzerland, Belgium,
and Russia; and a hearty co-operation on the
part of working men in the large towns of
England will make the undertaking a great success.
A requisition seventeen yards long, and signed by some
thousands of working men, was preanted to Mr. Glad-
stone, asking him to give the council the benefit of his
name and support, which he has cheerfully consented to
do, and our prospects, now the elections are over, are
brightening every day. (Hear, hear.) Almost every
decent workman endeavours at some period of his life to
produce a specimen of his trade. I have seen in the
houses of working men many such examples. In a small
town in Norfolk I was shown a musical instrument con-
trived by a working man, which, when played, gave you
the impression of listening to a full stringed band.
Like all working men he wanted the instrument patented,
which is quite another matter. Only yesterday I was
shown by a young watchmaker a moat excellent bust in
clay of his mother, and the impulse to do this was given
by some one pointing out to him in your museum a hone
sculptured, I think, by Chantry, and saying jokingly,
" You may be very clever, but you can't do a horse lam
that." (Laughter.) He went home and carved a wooden
horse, which is not without some merit. Now'
we want to bring all these things together,
with the names and trades of the men who
made them a bond fide workman' a exhibition,
such sa we have never yet seen, because most of the
things exhibited in former exhibitions have been exhi-
bited under the names of the manufacturers. (Hear,
hear.) I recollect, my first desire, when an apprentice,
was to make a work-box for my grandmother. She had
been very kind tome after the death of my mother, which
mewled very early in life. The first thing I had to de-
cide upon was the form and size, and I endeavoured to
see as many workboxes as possible, both public and, pri-
vate, and after much thought and consultation with one
or tuo workmen, I decided upon the size and form.
The next thing was the material. I had little money,
and my master had little sympathy with the object, and
I had to match as best I could a few minutes from meal-
times and after work hours, which in summer were twelve,
thirteen, and often fifteen hours a day. There had been
EOM extensive repairs of the interior at Windsor Csstle,
and a good deal of wainsooat oak had been sold, split up,
and burnt. The idea of a box made of wood from a room
where kings and queens used to sit, whom neither my
grandmother nor I had ever seen, greatly increased my
desire to obtain some of the wood. 1 purchased for one
shilling and a pint of beer of one of the joiners a piece of
oak with good figure, which I cut up into veneers, no
easy thing to do. I purchased little pieces of ebony
stringing, tulip wood, and satin wood for inlaying, and
then the idea occurred to me that if I could represent with
various coloured woods on the lid a shepherd dog which
had often been my only companion in the fields for
days together, I should have done something whial
would make me immortal in my native village.
(Cheers.) No man who ever commenced building •
house for a thousand pounds, which at last
cost him ten, amid have been more puzzled and
perplexed than I was about the ornamentation of the
lid. (Laughter.) One suggested one thing, another
something else ; but the dog was a failure, and with
much regret I had to wipe him out. About that time I
heard accidentally from a man who used to hawk tools that
a new kind of wood had teen imported which was remark-
able for its beauty. I thought the place intended for the
dog might give lace to • parallelogram of this wood.
(Much laughter. I only had one holiday in the year ex-
cept y, and that was on Whit-Manday. I
had saved utanienamoney, altogether two shillings and
throe penesas ; and soon as the day began to
break, with alight heart, and a very imperfect knowledge
of the place, or name of the man who had the wood to wan,
I was on my road to London by 4 o'clock in the morning.
That day I walked 36 miles, and spent 2a, in fancy woods,
and was in the shop at work by five o'clock the next
morning. After occupying the Wham of nearly three
years, I finished the box, and what with alterations and
so-called improvements and restorations, it was very un-
like what I had intended it. (Laughter.) The veneer in
some plams, by incessant scraping awl polishing, was re-
moved, and to hide this defect new ornamentation was
necessary. (Laughter.) I often look back on that period
of my life with mixed feelings of pleasure and sorrow,
which I suppose is the normal condition of every state of
life. I fell into many scrapes during my apprenticeship.
but this work-box saved me from greater scrapes ;if there
had been an exhibition at that time, I shouldcertainly
have been ambitious enough to become an exhibitor. The
modern disregard of the apprenticeship system is, I be-
lieve, • mistake; it is • valuable tut a stern dacipline,
and under • good man • great blessing. The poitry and
traditional associations of the old trade guilds have nearly
passed away, and we have substituted nothing iii its Oboe.
The extreme subdivision of labour in some de te
of industry—in which • man is kept all his • setting
threads in a screw' or watching the breaking of • wire—
is not favourable to the development of an intellectual
race of workmen. A reckless system of competition-
contracts and speculation has does mock to osparste
classes, and destroy the desire and audition to rodeos
good work. (Chan.) Look at the houses built now
and those built two end three ago Look
