TIIE NEW FRENCH MINISTRY.

It is wily fair to M. 011iyier to say that the com-
plete and official list of his Cabinet is very satisfac-
tory, and far superior to the strange combination at
first announced. It does not follow that this combi-
nation was an imaginary one. On the contrary, it seems
quite certain that the list published semi-officially by
the Constitutionnel, and so severely criticised on all
hands, was actually agreed upon, but that M. 011ivier,
despairing of its success, made renewed efforts. He
has been successful. His Cabinet includes all the
leaders of the Right and Left Centre whose omission
from the early list caused such surprise. De Talhouß,
Darn, Buffet, and Segris, arc all there. Count Darn,
the politician who was iinvrisoned for resisting the
coup d'etat, has taken the important post of Foreign
Affairs, and M. Buffet, who is regarded as personally
obnoxious to the Emperor, gets control of the
Finances. Nor must we forget the highly-respectable
Moderate Liberal, M. Louvet, who was not
in the first list, but figures as Commercial
Minister in the second. In short, the Cabinet is the
best that could be formed out of the materials,
instead of the worst, as it promised to be. The
result cannot fail to be of the highest consequence to
the interests of Europe. The French funds now
stand at a higher figure than has been known for
many years past.
RESIGNATION OF TIM SPANISH MINISTRY. •

A highly important occurrence is telegraphed
from Spain. The Spanish Ministry has
resigned, in consequence of receiving a decided
negative from the King of Italy respecting
the proposed election of the Duke of Genoa to
the throne. This news not only disposes of the
Duke's candidature, but it raises the important ques-
tion as to who will he the future Ministers. Prim him-
self was the leading upholder of the Duke's candi-
dature.
