SPAIN.

The Madrid journals of the 25th February, pub-
lish some few details of the conference between
Muley Abbas and Marshal O'Donnell. Muley
Abbas was accompanied, as already stated, by
Mohamed el Setif, a Minister, and it was this latter
who carried on the discussion, and who eventually
notified that the conditions proposed could not be
accepted. The Moorish Prince and the Marshal
saluted each other courteously on meeting, and
shook hands on parting. The Prince and his
attendants wore rich costumes. As had been ex-
pected, a decree in the (Gazette appoints M. Pacheco
Minister in Mexico. The journals announce that
M. Calderon Collantes, Minister of Foreign Affairs,
has had the Grand Cross of the Legion of Honour
conferred on him by the Emperor of the French.
Larrache and Arcilla, lately bombarded by the
Spanish fleet, are two small ports on the Atlantic
coast. The latter is a town of about a thousand
inhabitants, eleven leagues south-west of Tangier,
ani is defended by only one fort. Larrache has
from time immemorial been the ordinary station of
the Emperor of Morocco's fleet.

The Bind states that, in the reply given to the
address presented to the Federal Government by the
political society r lielvette
.on the subject of the ques-
tion of Savoy, the executive authority has declared
" that it will oppose any restriction being placed on
the relations of neutrality of Savoy with Switzerland,
and will rather endeavour to render them more
simple and more solid, if an opportunity should
present itself ; and that there is reason for confi-
dent hope that its voioe lyi4 be heard, and that it

will succeed in bringing the affair to the satisfac-
tory and wished for result." The Federal Council
adds in conclusion, " that its attention will be con-
stantly directed to all that contribute to maintain
and secure the honourable, though modest, position
which the Confederation occupies in Europe, and
that it will not hesitate at any measure which cir-
cumstances may require for the general interest."

A letter from Pesth has the following :—" At
Debreczin, which is the real capital of Magyarism
and of Calvinism, the most brilliant reception
was given to the members of the deputation when
they returned from Vienna: An immense crowd
waited for them at the railway station, and on their
errival they were conveyed in two handsome car-
riages to partake of a splendid banquet. The fete,
in which all the inhabitants took part, concluded at
night by serenades and processions by torchlight.
The Assembly of the Hungarian Protestants of the
Confession of Augsburg, at a meeting held in this
place three days ago, and which was very nume-
rously attended, adopted the following resolution :
—' The Assembly has unanimously resolved that it
maintains its decision of the 7th Dec. last, and that
even according to the terms of the ministerial ordi-
nance of Jan. 10, 1860, it cannot submit to the
decree of Sept. 2,1859.' The Assembly of German
Protestants has come to a similar resolution."
