Ofthese, only the Minister Of Foreign Affairs
and Of Justice are new. Alonzo, the former
Minister of Justice, retired for no other reason
than because be had thought it his duty to cur
tail the power Of the priesthood, TO suppress
the converts, 10 modify the Concordat and
withdraw several Of the concessions which the
Court of Rome had extorted, Of late years, from
a debauched and dissolnte Camarilla in all Of
which measures he had been resisted by Espar-
tero and his other. colleagues. Espartero, who,
while Regent, strove to impoyerish the church,
declared that :" no member Of his government
should address the Holy See in such sharp Ian
guage as Alonzo had thought fit 10 usel" Agu-
frri, who has taken his portfolio, is ultra Pro
gresista, in many respects democrat; but he
will obey the commands Of his chief. He for
merly filled the chair Of Canon Law in the eel
ebrated University Of Alcala, and at the time
Of his appointment TO the Ministry, held SINH
lar chair at Madrid. OF the other Ministers
the Times remarks;
"Luzuriaga is Esparteros .fdus Achates. He
is his alter ego, and may be considered as his
nominee; but be is an honest man, and will do
his duty TO the best Of bis ability, which, how
ever, must not be estimated at q very high rate.
AIiendi Sallazar retains his place and portfolio,
which we're nearly wrested from his grasp; but
the Democrat has eaten humble pie, and has
drawn in his horns; he has explained away his
circular TO the electors Of Biscay, whom he told
not 10 trouble themselves about the Monarchy
or the Queen, but to think Of their country.
All this be has modified, and is nov one Of the
most loyal Of Spaniards. His character has
somewhat suffered by his regeneration, but he
retains his place"
In addition 10 this, Mados and Infante, noted
Moderados, have been elected, by large MAJOR
ties. President and Vice President Of the Cortes
How unsettled Spain still is, may be Judged

THE MICHIGAN ELECTIONs-OFFI-
CIAL RETURNS.

The Detroit Free Press of the 24th instant
says:
The Lansing Journal of Thursday brings us
tables of the official canvass of votes cast at the
recent election in all the counties of the State,
for State officers and members of Congress.
An analysis of them reveals many curious facts,
which we shall make the subject of future com
ment. One remarkable feature-the only one
we shall now mentions the tightness Of the
vote. The whole number of votes cast for
Governor is only S2,366-nearly one thousand
less than were cast in 1852! The counties
showing the largest falling off are Oakland and
Wayne, in the first Of which it is 1851, and in
the latter $50.
The total vote of the State cannot be less
than 10000; hence it appears that some 49,
900 voters failed to 60 to the polls.
We subjoin general recapitulation of the
number Of votes given to each candidate:
