SPAIN.

The Madrid journals of the 9th have arrived.
The Occidente exhorts the Cabinet to be firm in
exacting reparation for the so-called insulting lan-
guage toSpain used in the English Parliament, and
also in obtaining redress from Mexico. The
Ministers had again met in Council, and the subject
of their deliberations was believed to be the orga-
nisation °lithe Council of State—which is regarded
With great interest in Spain. The postal treaty
between Spain and England, which has been some
time i❑ preparation, had been signed. A letter
says :

" The attitude of the new Spanish Ministry be-
gins to, reveal itself, and the revision of the elec-
toral lists may be considered as a first step in the
path of a more just and more constitutional policy.
The composition ,of the electoral body, say the
Ministers, has been constantly changed .by parties,
and the day has now come wt.:en that abuse ought
to disappear. Every one shares in this Opinion,
but the question is to know whether the Ministry
will succeed in triumphing over the interests
which have always falsified the lists and in esta-
blishing on solid bases the Liberal party which it
wishes to ,constitute, and into which it hopes to
introduce all the-men who desire neither reaction
noe political convulsions. In presence of the
actual state of things, doubts, may be entertained
of the success of the Ministry."

Accounts from Giurgevo of the 3cl announce the
arrival there, by a Danube steamer, of Prince Adal-
bert of Prussia, who travels under the name of

he was received by. the authorities in a brilliant
manner.

fender of the system of resistand and the principal
author of the common constitution. No new mem-
ber has entered the cabinet • .

ficent piece of plate was yesterday presented to Major-
General Hall, 'of the Ist Life Guards, as a mark of the
ceteem and regard of the bilkers who served with himin that regiment. The ceikraonY took place at the Duko
of B,aufurt's res.dence, Si,: ja(1108'd-quaro. Toe Duke'

Major General Hall expre2sed his acknowledgment,.
The Duke then invited the officrt present to a sump-
tuousth te,ltnitnacohredoancitsseerlviefd,,wriiltiihngvrl splendid addition. The
intrinsic value of theat prof treion and elegance,
piece of pla'e is about 900/. It is
from the well-known establishment of Mr. C. F. flancuck,
Bruton-street, Boad.street. It was designed and model-
led by Mr. Armstead, and re2resents the three epochs of
the regimeat—its embodiment ,in IGI3I, another cbauge
of costume in 1742, and• the upif,trut aynich was worn in
1855.! Nothing can be more lifelike and characteristic
tLanrider the dprreestisenotfetdheuxsescri;oa3o pthereiy were andods. Both horse and
are at the
present day. All the details are beautifully and artisti-
cally rendered. The execution ctf the colours of the re-
giment is particularly worthy of notice ; they are as
Pliant as if of satin. The figutie of Fame forms the sum-
mit of the t7ldcau. Altogether this testimonial is worthy
of the occasion, and will form a fitting memorial of the
distinguished regiment. It will remain at Mr.... Ha-
