AID without any improvement t, that ill-soverned
oourty, that they are unworthy Of notice. The
last one effected however, may be mentioned, as
the Envey to be appointed from the Ucited States
to the Court of Madrid might find in it men no. at
oil prepared to listen to the schemes Of Mr..
Buchanan and his adherents. The military rule Of
Ger. Naiyaez is after much hesitation, superseded
BY Cabinet nominaly formed by the Admiral.
General ArmerO, but whose leading mind will be
Mon, Secretary of Finances. Martin de la Rosa,
one of the Oldest moderate Liberals of Spain lie
Secretary for Foreign Affairs, and the other MEM
be- belong to ths'same moderate side The char.
acter of the whole Cabinet is what might be called
liberal doctrnsire. Armero has laid dowa as a
political basis the Constitution Of l845, BY which
tie Electoral right is chiefly confined to property
holders, thus falling on the bourgeoisie or middle
clSss. It ia certainly departure from the pro.
gressist principle of electoral extension
as tried of late unnecessarily under the
Leadership of Esfartero. But the now
Cabinet promises to abide strictly BY
tie parliamentary government; that is, to abstain
from military, sbsolatist and Court encroacbments
aid il fuences; likewise to introduce in the fapda
mental acts of l545 such reforms as public opinion
and events require. II ii fui6llits programme; if
il will show respect for con,ttutoa'l vtnciPlss
and lava thitg hitherto unknDV. for years
on years in Spaio; if 1t bring the consf-
tutiopal mschr cry into orderly movement, and at
least in some mode iDfuse order into the admins
tration and tbs finances of the kingdom; then it
might deserve the sympathy of every friend of
freedom even il the prime pie recognized by the
Cabinet might not DO so broad as tho Progresssts
desire Rs'pect for the laws by men holding
power accustoms the nation to the use Of oonsG-
tuior shts, even if on rather restricted scale;
this, with an end put to military pronunciamento'
and usurpatlons is what Spain urgently needs to
restore her from malsdmnstration, rapine and
chaoe.
Secretary Mon il already known to the political
world He has several times been in the Cabinet;
among others, under Narvaez in l0ii-45. He in
trcduced direct taxation aud protection instead of
,b,olute prohibition. He is generally considered
the ablest and most honest Spanish Statesman.
Admiral General Armero, if we recollect Alright,
comm anded the feet in Cuba during the Lopez eI'
petition. TIE who'e Cabinet as it stands, will be
adverse to enter into any negotiation whatever con.
ce,nipg tie sale or abandonment Of Cuba. Any
money offer will be reje ,ted, Sr. Mon desiring to
restore to order the finances Of the country, and
70 fcster the various domestic resources, and not
to di,n ember and teIl portion of the kingdom.
1t is hinted in some of our journals that Mr. Bel
mont, recently returned from the Hssue, is now to
be cent as Minister 10 Spain. The plea is, that
backed by the powerful interest of the Roth'cbids
in Spain he might succeed in bringing the purchase
of Cuba to successful conclusion. But notwith
standing the Rotbschilds, Us farmers of tho quick
silver mines Of Alnsdep, aud otherwise creditors
of the Spanish Government, hold Herewith i'm.
meIse pecunsry relations, still their influence is
not so paramount. They opposed with al! their
might the new lean concluded between the Spanish
Government and NJ Mires, their fnanci, antago-
mist on the Paris BOurse. The Rothschitds, by try
ing un.ucc,s fully to crush the Mires ioan have
raised an inimical Outcry against them in Madrid
ST. Mon not at all in their sraces or their interest;
accordiusly, all the hopes based on them will be
bsltd, and the present ministry will not sell Cuba
to oblee the Rothschilds, Belmont, Buchanan, and
heir Southern following.
