SPAIN
The Paris correspondent of the London Times says

interview Friday with Count Waewski and is said to
have declared that before proceeding to hostes with
Mexico the Spanish government would publish mani
explaining the question issue and permitting the
Mexican government to open fresh negotiations.
" Although accounts conflicting with respect to the
exact the Spanish Mexican dispute is taking, and
to the manner in which it is likely to be arranged it
pretty evident that all danger of collision between the
two powers is for the present As regards the final
that considering the national character of
the dspuants may be long deferred But fears regard

MAcAuLAy's ELEVATION
We copy the following from the London Times:
OF the various peeages which about to be created
the public will regard with most interest that which ele
Yates Mr. Macauay to the House of Lords 1t is hon
which belongs peculiarly to the man, and which is
fitting if not adequate return for life spent in the
public service and devoted to literary labos of the most
dgnifed order 1t is much to say that he is the
more With style that compels attentin, with u
calm wisdom that commands assent he has interpret
ed English history to ourselves and to the world To
the history which he has indicted is worth of
charters and cartoad of laws; it is Bill of Rights
and our code of political duties We know better what
we are we know what fathers fought for, we can
sympathize with the aspirations of wgs learn to
pect the endeavo of tories less of partsans and
more of patriots To Europe that history is worth all
the constitutions that have yet been devised 1t has
been translated into many languages and widely read
over the continent. Who does not remember the APP
peaTance of these volumes in that year of revolution
when all the peoples Of Europe maddening with
fury about thrones that seemed to be tottering to
their fall 1t with profound gratitude that amid
the universal wreck, Englishmen saw, as the hsto
rian described, how in their country liberty to
be linked with order and contentment and fraternity
were made consistent with the inequalities of aris
tocracy. If it lessen which shall never forget
It lesson also which, have little doubt will one
day bear fruit in every kingdom of Europe making
eregns wise, and making subjects tremble for that
crisis shadowed forth by the historian in which it may
be necessary to sacrifice liberty in order save civil
lzaon." In this view, if except Lord Palmerston
there is probably not Engshman living who has more
powerfully influenced the destinies of Europe than Mr.
Macauay and for his influence upon ourselves those
who fond of quoting the hacneyed saying of Fetch
of Saltoun would have stronger and Ineligible
if they would give the preference the maker of
laws not to the writer of ballads but to the phosophic
historian who leaves his mark palpably the great
author whom her Majesty is now about TO honor.
There can be no welcome addition to the debates
of the upper House than the ortions which, trust Mr.
Macauay will occasionally contribute the few great oc
caons by which the Lords every session vndcate their
position Although at time he took prominent
part in the discussions of the House of Commons his tone
of thought and style of speaking quite suited
