The accounts of anarchy in the Spanish provinee4l

a friend of his had the whole of his crop of olives 4°l

THE EASTERN. DIFFICULTY.
King George has at last succeeded in finding ‘ 011#
who is willing to accept the declaration of the Conference;
and who is able to form a Cabinet to support him.
Zaimis Ministry is complete, and Count Walewski left
Athens on Monday, "taking with him the reply of t:
Greek Government, which is satisfactory in every rare:
How the popular demonstrations against aceepting
declaration have been dealt with, and what willbe the c°11:
sequence of the acceptance, remain to be seen. Trust
worthy information states that the new Cabinet hag bee-,.:
hatched for the sole purpose of getting over this slit:6011;
it has not the confidence of the people, and cannot 041c-

MORE ABYSSINIAN PRISONERS.
Though we are not likely to hear of another Abyssiniflo
expedition, it appears that the romantic enterprise ailed
year did not complete its work. It will be rememb!
that two members of the Armenian-Gregorian clergy“
Jerusalem set out previously to the expedition in ordervi
obtain the release of the prisoners by peaceful met;
Religion, however, succeeded no better than diPb/ratc;i;
Not only did the two worthy ecclesiastics fail in fro
mission, but they aro still in Abyssinia, and w 113.410
worse, cannot get out. The mantle of Theodore has f':;
upon the new sovereign in respect of retaind',
captives. The imprisoned clergy have written
letter to their brethren assuring them that °it
are in the power of the monarch, and cannot get s°',
They thought the Abyssinians were Christo,oosl
but they have been bitterly deceived. There is no reliPi,
in Abyssinia, only the name. Even the Abouna, Wll°
the bishop of the one Abyssinian diocese, and is tilt
from the Coptic clergy of Alexandria, is not treated'
respect. Why the new sovereign will not let the Sial
Armenians go is not quite clear, but the doleful leg
seems to hint that having thus got a good stock of cle
on hand, he is disposed to keep it in readiness, Ana°
the trouble of sending to Alexandria.
