THE WEEKLY PRESS.

The Leedom Review observes that the new ministry 6 a
good ace, and there is no whig Mentor in it. It starts
with the best prospects of realising its high thoughts in
high deeds, and our contemporary regards the dangers of
division with which idle tongues threaten it as chimerical
in the last degree. It is not likely such a ministry could
have been brought together at all had there been any pro-
beble point& of difference in sight.
There are people, says the Saturday Serowe, who are
bound to be disappointed with everything, and this class
of persons are disappointed at finding so many peers in
the cabin, t. It is painful, they say. in these democratic
days to think that out of fifteen members of the cabinet
there are six peers and the Marquis of Uartingion. Lord
Russell could not have been more exclusive, more whig,
and more aristocratic than Mr. Gladstone has shown him-
self, or more contemptuous of the leaders of the people.
The charge is in a way true, and it a cabinet was to he
composed exehnisely of the fifteen ablest men of the
party, the cabinet would not have been rightly formed.
Hut in the light of practical sense and worldly wisdom,
the choice of Mr. Gladstone may perhaps be justified.
Criticising the oonstitution of the new cabinet, the Spec-
tato► remarks that, odd as the ilistribution of offices may
have born, and it is nearly unintelligible, the collective
force of the cabinet will be very great, and it is that which,
after all, drives the machine. It is not a cabinet which,
when once decided, will fiat to use its majority, or allow
its measures to be "compromised" out of existence. or
submit for one second to the dictation of the permanent
bureaucracy. It has strewth for any purply°, foreign
negotiation excepted, and the will to make that strength
felt in the actual business of life.

The Itzintaimer says with respect tothe renetisnary muve-
oust in Spain, that until the Constituent Aeunnbly shall
have mot and determined what the form of the now govern-
ment is Jobs, there is no excuse for disorder or menace ; and
the republican party is bound, above all others, to maintain
and uphold the liberty of law, pending the national deci-
sion. If by numbers, by reason, or by eloquence, it can
win its way, there is no reason why it should not prevail ;
if not, it would 1* only to retard the eventual triumph of
its principles to seek prematurely the abolition of
rept ity.

FOREIGN NEWS.

(TBlB DAY.)

COUNT BISMARCK AND TfIR DEPOSED
GERMAN PRINCES.

The committee for the sequestration of the pro-
perty of the ex-Elector of Mese held a sitting on
Thursday. Count de Bismarck declared that the
deposed Prince bad calculated on the imminence
of a contingency of war and paid no attention to
the reiterated warnings which he received. The
apprehensions of hostilities which had pre-
vailed in the jiroeeding summer were not
without foundation, and had only been re-
moved by an unexpected circumstance. A
committee of agitation, hostile to Prussia, is in-
triguing at Hier-inc, and among its members are
Guelphs, Hessians, Danes, and Republicans. The
count incidentally remarked that ho had no know-
ledge of the famous note to M. d'lTtselom except
through the journals, seeing that it had lawn sent
after the went and had been lost on the thoatni
of war in INGO. After these declarations the
prokositiou of the government was adopted by
13 votes to I, given by M. Virehow, with an
amendment to the effect that the seluestration
can only be removed by a law. In the Chamber
of Deputies the Minister of Justice presented a
regulation on mortgages. The budget of foreign
affairs was voted. Count de Bismarck declared
that he accepted the principle of the proposal con-
cerning the transfer of the above-named depart-
merit to the northern confederation from 1870;
and ho promised to bring forward a measure, in
that sense. He added that, so far as the confede-
ration was concerned, the question was de Moil by
the vutusg of the budget of 1870.

THE INSURRECTION IN SPAIN.

EXPECTED ATTACK UPON THE INSUR-
GENTS THIS DAY.
MADRID, bac. 11, EVENING.

Ilostilitics have not yet been resumed et Cadiz,
but a vigorous attack is expected to-morrow
should the insurgents not submit to the authori-
ties. Meanwhile great exertions are being mule
to induce the latter to lay down their arms. The
insurrection bears an essentially republican cha-
racter, as was solemnly asserted both by the !h'+-
cession and the lynablad, two republican papers
that appear in this city, and this declaration has
caused much indignation among the public.

THE THREATENED RUPTURE IN THE
EAST.- GREEK MINISTERIAL STATE-
MENT.

ATHENS, Dm 9.

iu reply to a question put to him on the pre ent
state of affairs, the Minister for Foreign Affairs &-
dared in the Chamber to-day, that the Porte con-
templated breaking off diplomatic relations with
the government onaccount of the generoussuecour
which Greek subjects bad given to Candia in her
struggles. He stated that the Ambassadors of the
Great Powers in Constantinople had intervened to
prevent the contemplated rupture from taking
place, and declares] that the Government acted in
conformity with the requirements of national
dignity, and with the desires of the nation. Next
week he would lay all diplomatic documents re-
ferring to the present momentous position of
affairs before the floirie.

TURKEY AND GREECE.

ATIIENS, D FX. &

The Turkish Minister has applied to the Greek
govcn •nt for the punishment of the Greek
subjects at Ogina who illtreated the Turkish agent
on that island and forcibly prevented bun from
recouve)ing certain Camliote families to Crete.
The TurkiNh Minister also demanded that Greoce
should prevent any despatch of further munitions
or assistance to the insurgents.
It is asserted that the gove Het will not ac-
cede to the demands of the Turkish minister. The
ultimatum of Turkey has not yet been delivered to
the Greek cabinet.

OUR PARIS LETTER.

(FBO3l OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.;
PARIS, Finnvir

The Sa,/e says that every precaution has been
token to ensure the election of M. Gambetta as
the successor of M. IkTryer. The Marseilles
committee, which unanimously agreed to support
M. Gambetta, consisted of 37 persons, of all
shades of democracy, in the district, and who
represented upwards of 2,000 electors. The
Slick exhorts M. Ganibetta to go at once to the
Douches du Rhone and canvass for himself.

mere play of his superabundant natural forces can we

The latest news is that 31. Gtuubetts, the grmit
tribune, developed by the Baudin ease, has gun..

Every day brings fresh revelations of the great
battle of Clichy gained by the government on
December 3 against no anuses. Not only, as I
stated positively at the time, were the garrisons of
l'aris and Versailles under arms, but depots in
many distant towns were warned to be in
readiness to march on Paris. The Onire of Arras
now says that five companies of engineers in that
town were among the reinforcements in waiting.
Yon, in London, who were led by a telegram to
believe that an insurrection was imminent in
Paris, can scarcely realise how ridiculone all this
seems to us hero, who knew that there never wae,
from the first, the least fear of so much as the
slightest and that the whole comedy was
got up by the authorities for inscrutable purpe4es.
Of all the people arrested, only 10 remain now in
prison, awaiting their trial for a most trivial
policy misdemeanour.
