THE CIVIL WAR IN SPAIN.

An important document relative to the Spanish ques-
tion, and which will be made public in a few days, is an
" interrogatory" (as it is called) of General Maroto,
when he was in France, i❑ 1836. He was questioned
by General Harispe, as to the best means of putting an
end to the civil war :

" French intervention," said Maroto, "is the only
means of terminating the civil war, militarily and
morally. The question has two considerations—one that
of Don Carlos, the other that of the insurrection.
As to Don Carlos, he is nothing. The pro-
vinces see clearly a-head, that Don Carlos is an
longer a means in the face of the rest of Spain. Not-
withstanding all the lies told. all see tEat for three
years his cause has not made a step in advance. Even
the clergy have not stirred, in despite of assassination
and persecution. The rest of the nation thus will
not declare itself. Nor would the Basques have
taken any part had they known what Don Carlos
was, and what his spirit of bigotry, fanaticism,
and weakness. The provinces are more en-
lightened than other parts, and once they reject him
all will reject him. The population is worn out,
morally and in substance. Intervention would be
a providence for them. Proprietors are numerous
in the provinces occupying elective situations. The
peasantry are held in obedience by having their
sons in Don Carlos's ranks. All the chiefs, especially
the most reasonable, such as Villareal, La Torre,
and Campillo, see the powerlessness of Don Carlos,
as a miiitary chief ; but declare they will never lay
down their arms before the Christino soldiers ;
but would in one instant, before an amnesty and in-
tervention. The population is now only kept true
to the insurrection by the army, and the army only by
its chiefs. In Alava all depends on Villareal ; in Biscay
all depends on La Torre. In Guipuscoa there is no
enthusiasm since the death of Segristibelza. The chiefs
hold out but through honour ; and they would disappear
when foreigners intervene. As to Don Carlos, be
would willingly give himself up on receiving personal
guarantees. If the French army on the frontier
showed itself merely ready to enter, *and would
issue a manifesto declaring -for the rights of Isabella,
but determined to interfere between both parties
and stop further effusion of blood, guaranteeing an am-
nesty and the Fueros, under necessary modifications, to
be considered in a Congress—the Christino or consti-
tutional army, not to occupay Biscay for a certain tune,
say five years—after such a manifesto, the French troops
entering would meet with nothing save benedictions."---
