MADRID, August 2.-The Captain
General of Madrid addresses letter to
Regent Serrano and Gen. Prim, in which
he says: ~ took part in the revolution
hoping to see morality, law and justice
succeed to former abuses. 1t is now
ten months since the revolution was
accomplished. My hopes have been de-
ceived. Greater abuses, widespread
immortality and deplorable anarchy pre-
vail, disorders to which it is absolutely
necessary to put an end. The Consti-
tuition having proclaimed monarchy,
the immediate choice of King is in
dispensable. If the Government does
not shortly consider the question shall
abandon all hope as to the consolidation
of the revolution and retire to private
life" This letter was read in the Coun-
CT of Ministers and created profound
impression.
