New-York daily tribune., 1854-09-14

The latest news from Spain received by the
steamer Niagara, shows that the reaction has 10.
only begun but has accomplished, without serious
difficulty, some of its more Important purposes.
First of all Queen Christina, for whom the peop.s
demanded justice and the stern execution OF what.
ever sentence the Cortes might pass upon hes
has been allowed to escape unbarmed' with no
other punishment than decree of exile and the
confscatOn Of such parts Of her property as she
had not previously invested beyond the reach Of
the Spanish Government. Next the Union Clab
at Madrid has been suppressed aud with it the
danger that repub can institutions aud the llberyof
conscience might be established in the country
supposed to be got rid of for the time. The Ma
tonal Guard has joined in the execution Of these
measures no doubt from fear that the eatire
kingdom would otherwise be plunged into state
Of anarchy, and all property be taken from lts
owners. How these steps will be received In the
provinces does not yet appear but If they dislike
them ii is not probable that they will attempt
new revolution for the purpose Of overthrowng
the Government they have just set up. The
revolution of Spain is, therefore, passing into the
category of respectable and conservative move
ments, though when we look at the enormous de-
felt left by the late Governnent-thiry millions
Of dolIGrs-One would suppose the whole country
would be in arms for radical change and for new
guarantees of official honesty. Whether this will
be done or not now depends on the rural districts,
for the Capital has submitted to see all these
hopes nufed.
New-York daily tribune., 1854-09-14

The Osrego Times and Journal publihes letter
from the Hon. WIN. Duer, declining an invitation to
apublic dinner, and expressing hs views on public
matters. Among other things, We learn from this
correspondence that when ts writer was in Congress,
be learned there was party much more numerous
and powerful than northern men generally suppose,
bent upon the dissolution Of the Union. In order 10
avoid that eventuality the Hon. William admits
that he waived the WImot PrOyisO, humbled bis
pde, exposed himself to misrepresentation, aud ~
he supp sed helped to settle the diiicly forever BY
the great Compromise of 1850. But now alas be
finds it is not settled. The peace is broken, aud
while others are indignant he is indignant too. Bat
he begs his friends not to 90 too far n this indigna
tiOn-nOt to form northern party, because, IL such
apaIty euccessful the Union would be dissolyei.
Instead Of gongnto dreadful an affair Is tbs, he ad
yses them to stick to the old National Wing party
which be thinks no doubt can never do any harm 10
anybody. Especially he believes they had better
not take up the new-iangled notion of no. edmittng
aby more Slave States for that would be even
than repeating the Fugitive Slave Law Instead ofany
such extreme measure, Mr.. Duer proposes they
should not let in any Slave State until ,ho prohibition
Of bgger-driyiDg is restored il Kansas and Nebraska
after which they might lei cm in. Having thus
delivered himself Mr. Duer bids farewell to his
friends with emotions he see',s in vain for words 70
express. He goes to California.
