lUplto this afternoon there is no very
important news from Spain. The whole
country has unanimously accepted the
programme of the Revolution. The COM
position of the Provisional Government
Is not yet officially known, but little
doubt is entertained that Marshal Sierra
no and General Prim will be members of
| it; also Don Jose Ofozaga (brother of
the distinguished chief of the Progresista
party, Salustiano Olozaga,) Cantero.
Senator belonging to the party of, the
Liberal Union; Figuerota, a moderate
Democrat; and Rivero, an ex deputy,
who is of the most advanced party. In
Madrid, a communication has been re-
ceived from Don Salustiano Olozaga, ad-
dressed to the Provisional Government,
congratuleting them on the success of
the change they all have labored to
bring about, and declaring the writer's
firm determination not to become men,
Der of the Provisional Government. !
see that Paris Journal names General
Dulce as member of that Government,
and it is possible that it may figure i'll
the list, but for the present only as mat
ter of form. 3 aa
There can be no harm in now stating
a fact which, for obvious reasons, it was
desirable to conceal until the Revolu-
tion had completely triumphed. Gen.
Dulce is not in Spain. Henever left the
Canary Islands. His friends and COM
rades, before departing, visited his sick
bed, from which he would fain have risen
to accompany them. But, though the
will was strong, the power was wanting.
They. insisted on his remaining, and he,
feeling his weakness, with great regret
was fain to do SO. They promised that
his name should appear in company
with theirs at the foot of all their proc
lamations, and soft was done. If phys
ical weakness prevented his taking an
active part in the. carrying out of the
plot, he, at least, has the consolation of
rejecting that he was one of the first to
join in and combine it, and that he la
bored hard and ran great risks to bring
it to maturity and insure its success.

"Events in Spain having taken more
serious turn since yesterday, the Queen
decided to leave San Sebastian and en-
ter France. This morning she commu-
nicated her project to the Emperor, who
hastened to send three officers of his
household to the frontier-General Cas-
telnau, his 5Aide-de-camp; Viscount
Dennanoir, Chamberlain; and Lieuten-
ant Conneau, orderly officer. The royal
train arrived at Andage at IL o'clock,
bringing the Queen, the King, the four in
fants of Spain. the 1nfante Don Sebas-
tian, (the Queens uncle) the Minister of
State, and several persons attached to
their Majesties. A great number of San
Sebastian functionaries and officers of the
garrison had accompanied the Queen to
the frontier and rendered her royal hon.
ors as she left Spain. The Emperor, the
Empress, and the Prince Imperial, sur
rounded by their household, awaited
the Queen at the station of La Negresse.
After an interview marked by that SYM
pathy which misfortune always inspires,
the train resumed its journey to Pau,
where the Queen proposes resting some,
time in the chateau the Emperor has
placed at her disposal"
| Nothing could well be colder than
this, or less hope inspiring for the de-
throned Queen, to whose disaster her bro
ther potentate accords the sympathy
which misfortune always inspires, but ac-
cords no more. The personal condo
lence is of the most meagre and common
place description. The Queen goes to
Pau to repose for while in the Emper-
or mansion. For how Hong awhile ?
There are grounds for suspicion that the
sojourn will be but brief. Will she af-
forwards occupy the apartments her
mother is said to be preparing for her in
her villa on the Norman coast? This,
too, is doubtful. 1t may be questioned
whether the hospitality of France will
long be granted her. VIII she seek that

the political destitute Rome might
suit her better, now that Venice has
ceased to be the chosen asylum of out.

| AS far as can yet be discerned, the
attitude of the French Government is by
no means unfriendly to the new state Of
things in Spain. M. Mercier, the Min
lister at Madrid, is understood to have
given little satisfaction at the Foreign
Office here, by the position he took up
during the recent events. He shows
/ himself, it is related, too favorable to the
Queens cause. This was n,dIadrost, tc
say the least. That his personal sympa
