A Madrid despatch Of yesterday announces
the formation of Provisional Government, at
the head of which are Generals Serrano and
Prim, as honorary Presidents. The principal
men of the nation have given in their adhesion
to the Provisional Government The Junta,
it is stated, will free the children of the blacks,
in anticipation of the entire abolition of slavery
IN the colonies by the Cortes when it assemblies.
1t is understood at London that Com
mittee will report at the next session of Parlia
ment, a bill tor the adjustment of the land laws
of Ireland. A Paris despatch says that ad-
vices from Rio mention that Lopez had been
defeated and obliged to retire from his new DO
sition at San Fernando. An explosion took
place yesterday in mandatory of fire works
at Barnesley, England, by which five persons
we're killed and others badly injured
RELEASE OF A MILITARY PRISONER. Three
weeks ago Nh. Edwin Boone, citizen of this
place, was arrested by order Of the military au-
thorities and incarcerated in the city Jail. The
order was based on warrant issued by the
Clerk of Scott county for the arrest of man
named Cummings for killing Union man dur
ing the war The military professed to have
some reason to believe that Boone was the per-
son meant in the warrant. 1t turns out, how
ever, that they were entirely mistaken, and
that they have done injustice to an innocent
party: Mr.. Boone, we learn, was Captain of
the Company to which Cummings belonged,
aud they were totally different in their person
al,appearance. Cummings was a small man,
whereas Capt. Boone is quite tall and larg.
one. 1t is singular how such mistake could
have been made. The bayonets, however, are
not amenabe for mistakes They are supreme
and unquestionable. Mr. Boone has lost three
weeks liberty and labor, besides lawyer fee;
but what Of that? He is only rebel

Gen. Hancock incurs the direful
wrath of Congress by insisting on
making the military power subordi-
nate to the civil authority in his Dis
trict. This is reversing the ordinary
course of things very curiously.
Successful soldiers have generally
been champions of military rule, and
great perils to liberty have always
been apprehended from their fond
ness for arbitrary authority. In this
case, one Of the most brilliant gene
rails of our civil war is denounced
most vehemently by the National
Legislature for not being arbitrary
enough in his administration. He
has to fight to maintain the suprema-
cy of the laws and tribunals of JUS
