The Madrid journals of the 10th have reached us.
On the preceding day, the members of the Senate
and of the Chamber of Deputies met in their re-
spective chambers, and, calling one of their oldest
members to the chair, proceeded to nominate
deputations charged to receive the Queen on the
opening of the Cortes. The number of senators
present was 154 ; that of the deputies is not stated.
The only minister present in the Chamber of
Deputies was M. Martinez de la Rosa. The
kstado had been seized. The Government, it
was reported, intended decreeing that lieutenant-
generals alone should be eligible for captaincies-
general. The Northern Railway Company was
about to proceed to the purchase of the ground
which it requires between Madrid and Escurial.
The evening papers publish the Queen's speeob, but

they gave no details of the opening of the Cortes,
owing to the late hour at which it took place.
