Madrid, Jan. 30, 1S69.-The Provision
al government yesterday issued an ad-
dress to the nation tending to restore
calmness to the public mind. They de-
cIined to take active steps against reac-
ton, but declare that they are closely
watching it, and if necessary, will COM
bat it. All religious questions they leave
to be finally disposed of by the Constitu-
ent Cortes, which is soon to assemble.
The abolitionists have presented a Pc
tition to the government asking them to
issue a decree setting free all children
born in slavery since September, 1868.
The Petition was referred to the Consti-
tuent Cortes.
The diplomatic corps have addressed
to the government a protest against the
treatment of the Papal Nuncio.
The city Of Madrid is quiet, but the
volunteers are kept under arms.
1t is stated that the members of the
provisional government are unanimously
in favor of the Duke M%outpensler for the
Spanish throne.
The Archbishop of Burgos has been
arrested and is now in the custody of the
military.
