MADRID, May 22.-At a quarter to yesterday
friday morning, after four days discussion, the
articles relating the future form of government
for Spain were voted, as presented by the Commits
sion. Clause 81 declares all powers to emanate from
the nation and was adopted by taking the Yeas and
Nays in the usual way Clause 80, to the effect that
the /" form of government of the Spanish nation is
the monarchy was voted nOminatigely. Two hund-
red and fourteen deputies recorded their names IN
favor of, and II against the clause. The majority
was swelled to 220 in the course of the day, by the
addition of six who were absent when the vote was
taken. The Republicans, who constituted the sole
minority voted compactly. The majority could not
do otherwise, being committed In 1854, when
Rivero now President of the Chamber, voted against

against the monarchy the Republican strength
was only 10. 1t is now H. not IN

ever this essential difference: In 1854 the deputies
who opposed the monarchy represented merely their
own individual sentiments, not those OF their con,
stituences in 1869 they express the opinions and
the aspirations of all the great and the intelligent
centeTs of population, having been sent to the CON

soon as the remaining clauses OF the Constltuton

of the Regent 1t may be regarded as pretty certain
that the jealousy of the other leaders OF the reyou-
tionary movement viii hedge the Regency with lin
tations as to authority which will render 1t harm
