tries. A private letter says the Queen,
since her arrival, has spent her time be-
tween the little drawing-room and the
chapel, wherein the ex- Bishop oil Cuba
says mass every day. A project OF the
Tuileries, and o certain number Of men be-
longing to the Imperial household, are ON
duty in the Chateau de Pau, as regularly az
in any other palace. Queen Christina, lsa-
bella's mother, who was visiting her large
estates in the Asturias when the final blow
was struck IS expected at Pau daily, and
the mother and daughter will be able TO
lmediate over human aud royal vicissltudes.
~ t"When the Queen saw herself
poweFless and fiiendless, she wrote letter
to Espartero, the purport Of which was az
follows: sHou have already saved my dy-
nasty--yoIi shall save it again. AS to my
self, am no longer anything, and | wish
for nothing; but here is the Prince OF the
Asturias, whom ! throw into your arms and
confde to your care, What You have done
for me you shall do for him. Il appears
that the letter was expansive and touching,
but the little'prince had to be persuaded to
leave the Queen, and the mother had to
make up her mind to separate from her
child. The latter, though too young to be
conscious of the position, SAW that some
thing was going wrongS threw himself INTO
the Queens arms and wept bitterly, lsa-
bella broke down at once, burst into tears,
tore up the letter, and abandoned all idea
of appealing to Rspartero."

I f58 THE CARIIsT PRETENDER. 2
The Paris correspondent of the Londoi
Times says:
tSome of the Paris papers have beeI
blundering sadly about the present Cariis
pretender to the throne Of Spain, an'
seem extremely obfuscated in their notion
of that branch of the Spanish Bourbon
family. Some OF them talk OF HIM as IN
son OF the Don Carlos who was the Queen
Iunole. while others seem to imagine hin
To- he the son of Count de AIontemolin, Il
whose, favor Don Carlos resigned. Dol
Carlos and his son Montemolin are bot
dead, and the present pretender Is the sol
of Don Juan, second son OF Don Carlos
Don Juan is a iantastical, scattered-brlne'
sort of person, who at one time proiesse'
democratic principles, and at another wa
talked of as n candidate for the throne G
Mexico. His eccentriclties rendered LII
unacceptable to the Carlists, and they 90
him to abdieate his pretenslons IN favor
his son Carlos Maria. 1t is possible tina
this. Young lnanimay have inherited frol
