PARIS, Tuesday, Juue q.
The events which have recently taken
place in Spain baye been very far from gain
irg Garor or confidence among the liberal
party In this country. In fact, neither the
origin nor programme Of the new "liberal"
Cabinet Of Madrid are such IS are calculated
to win appreciation from the real friends of
liberty and consistency. Fer how have Mar
sbal O'Donnell and bis friends come into
power, and what ale the professions they
make cn assuming cfl1ccs There has been q
satd IN Tic serssito, for the wh5le
afIdr looks more ssltanic and Ma
hommedan than l1oaarchIal or Cath-
Ole There has been squabb1e about
aproir tlrc major domos aud equer1ies; and
10! Queen 1Eatel!a revcEges herself by turn
1pg her whole Cabinet ous Of doors and " rev.
o1uttontzine" the entire policy of her CIV
crnment On this trumpesy consideration!
One only wonders that she did not have them
tied up In sacks and drowncd-1f wator
enough Tor the purpose could be found In the
Mnrzanates At this time Of the year, In any
other constitntio1al' country than Spain
It might haze been difficult fof her 5fa]esty
to fill her Cabinet sgain, after emptying It
60 uncercmoniously. Dut no. only docs she
succeed fE1mtdiately In doing SO, but she
1lrds men willing, either from "cir-
cumstances'' or their own ''con7ersion," }" to
Issue dec,atation Of political faith In
di1ect eontradicticn with all their own per-
sonnl antect dents. Hero We have, for in
stance, such man as II. Hcr1ara, who,
when before Minister OF the Interior, distiu-
Euished himself by his impEacabl1 allmosity
against the riess, no~ re-ccceptin the 6atne
office with the profession that the press shall
be absolutely free! Can 1t be wondered at

public organs cry out ti1seo DdEd3sl and re-
iuse to place much trust in the sincerity OF

all, men Of business and capitalists In France,
many Of who11 have embarked largely of
late In railways and credits ModQcrs CeTond
the Pyrenees, are struck with the absence OF
all mentien Of, Of any allusion cven, to the
momentuons subject Of Spanish unanccs b5
the new ministry. 1t is n very common re-
mark here TINT Government which should
start with M avowed determination to
set tie public 1nsnces In order, to re-
deem The lub.ic credit, not TO say the
common honesty Of the country, AID secure
That such q government would conicr far
greater boon upon Spain thaa one which
promises elective Scnatcs,' and s.cxtcuded
lranchise;''. p-ll.!eal rights intended for
very different population anl q yuy d.f1ennt
degree Of instruction to that to bc found n
suuons and pies;rlddeu couul1ies Of the
Old World. AL fnanci.l men engaged in
Spanish affairs Look very blank, and p,acs lit
tie confidence either In Tie existing st1:e Of
things Or IN the sincerity Of the new regime
IroIOnnded 10 the EAtion. One ouly ,Sud
seems likely to be effected by tbs change, and
that Is the recognition by one CT the Cithoiic

have been serious disturbances in yetiSus
