QUEEN ISABELLA OF SPAIN ACcEPrs.
Advices from Madrid state That the Emperor Napo
Icons letter Of invitation delivered 10 Queen Isabella
the evening OF tho 11th OF November, and the ncx
day Council Of Ministers met 10 deliberate tho
ply.
According 20 the Correspondena II was decided that
the invitation should be accepted and that spain should
cause herself 10 he represented at tho Congress.
This resolution is warmly appl&udcd by the Fpocd,
which sayswe do not dissembic the satisfaction with
which regard this frank uob'e and resoutc attitude
OF Spain twill not be her fault the Congress fails In
settling the state OF Europe aud eliminating tho sad
ces OF war. The policy Of abstention, and OF exagxe
rated neutrality s OF impussance that which keeps
it's eye turned only towards the past leads inevitably 70
isolation.
