THE SPANISH COMPLICATION - THE
POSITION OF FRANCE.


PARIS. July 8 8-The Spanish ques-
ton still causes much uneasiness,
though the feeling this forenoon Is
somewhat more assuring than on last
evening. There were transactions at
the Bourse at eleven o'clock last
night, Rentes touching 70f 14c, the
lowest figures that have been made
for year. The Bourse opened a
shade firmer this morning; Rentes
70f 35c.
The GonstituttOnaeI announces that
Senor Olozoga. the Spanish Minister,
has received instructions from Spain
to give official notice to the French
Government of the candidature of
Prince Leopold.
The Constitutioanel adds that when
France becomes convinced of the
persistence of Spain in this matter,
she will terminate diplomatic rela-
tions with her.
No definite intelligence has been
received from Prussia, but France
will not be content with the evssive
declarations of Bismarck.
Prussia ought. in the interest of
the peace Of Europe, to withhold
consent for Hohenzollern to sit upon
the throne of Spain.
From various semi official jour
nals this morning, are gathered the
following details touching the candi-
dature of the Prince Leopold, of
HoheuzolIern: General Prim meant
hostility when the Spanish Govern
ment notified the great power of Eu.
rope of the Hohenzollern candi-
dafure.
On the Third of July, Prim sdvis-
ed Senor Olozoga. Spar ish Minister
here. that be (Prim) bad chosen
Prince Leopold. that the Spanish
Minister felt assured that the French
government would object to it, but
that he depended upon the hiRber
sentiment of the Emperor. This
proves that Gen. Prim meant to act
without the consent of the latter.
France has communicated with other
powers of Europe. und in ell cases
has received words Of sympaty. All
she now seeks at Berlin and Madrid,
is to prevent political complications.
A dispatch recently forwarded
tn the Spanish Government By the
Duke of GrammOnt, has been made
public. The Duke says France hopes
Spain will reuounce the only candi.
date for the throne, who is altoRether
disaRreeable. He recalls the service
of the French Government In Spa nish
affairs by interdictiDg plots and ar
resting invading Carlists, aud urges
the fact that France aided Spain in
the establishment of q Provisional
Government.
No answer has, as yet, been receiv-
ed from Prussia since the declaration
of tho Secretary Of Foreign Affairs In
the Corps Leg g;slatif few days ago.
On the morning of that day, however,
a dispatch was received from Prussia,
to the effect that that Government
knew nothing Of the candidature of
Prince Hohenzollern for the throne
of Spain.
A report. seemingly we'll founded,
is IN circulation here that the Prus-
sian Minister of war has ordered all
the general officers of the Prussian
army to rejoin their corps without de-
lay. The Memorial Diplonsatfoue
says that a French circular has been
issued. defDiug the situation. The
Madrid Discussion has an article on
the throne question TO day. wherein it
says: Prince Hohenzollern's quail
fcations are indisputable. A beeRer
himself. be comes to rule a nation Of
begVars." The Speyer. (Bavaria.) Ga
ze'te says: After oll he is more a
Bonaparte than Hohenzollern."
