man power to place one Of its princes on the
throne of Charles Y; and subsequently Prime
Minister Olivier, while endeavoring to palm
off his Foreign Minister'S declaration as
forerunner of peace, fully confirmed the
position assumed by the latter, and resorted
to his usual trick of challenging vote of a
want of confidence by way of assuring the
world that an appeal to arms would be thelast
resort to save the honor and preserve the in
teRritv of France. 1t is also asserted that a
conference took place on the previous day be-
tween M. Olivier the Duke de Gramont, and
the Spanish Ambassador, the result of which
was the handing of an energetic protest
against the Hohenzollern scheme to Baron
Werther, the Prussian Ambassador, who i'm
mediately on its receipt started for Ems, to
consult the King of Prussia in person. There
is also q rumof that the French Minister at
the Court of Berlin was recalled Yesterday
afternoon, and another to the effect that the
Emperor Napoleon sent for the Spanish Am
bassador, with whom he had protracted in
terview. On the top of all this comes vio-
lent article in an Imperialist journal, lie
Pays, lamenting the recent diplomatic de-
feat sustained by France, and crying Justify
for war; while the other Paris journals are
thrown into excitement by the movements of
a German feet in the Mediterranean.
Spain, the country most nearly concerned
in this grand dispute, also naturally shares in
the excitement. There are rumors of dissen-
sions in the ministry, which take the shape
of report that. Admiral Topete, preferring
Prince Alfonso, the son of the ex-Queen, to q
Prussian for King will cut loose from Prim,
if the Hohenzollern scheme is persisted in;
while it is positively asserted that the Council
of Ministers will call the Cortes together on
the Goth inst.,. presumably to dispose of
Prince Leopold's candidature, if it is not
disposed of by Prim, Napoleon, and Bis
marck before that date. Unless the
threatening position assumed by the French
Government is mere bluster, it is more than
probable that the Cortes will never be called
upon to pass judgment upon Prince Leopold.
Desperate as General Prim has become in
his search for king, he will scarcely venture
to press the claims of Prince Leopold or any
other candidate who is extremely obnoxious
to the French Emperor. A universal
European war would be the inevitable result
in case the Spanish Cortes and people came
to Prims support, and for participation in
such struggle, Spain is in no degree pre-
pared. Its most probable result would be
the overthrow of the revolution of Septem-
Der, 1868, and the restoration Of the Bour-
bons to the throne which they so long dis
praced
