FROM EUROPE.
The Spanish Question.


PARIS, July 8.-The Spanish question still
causes msch uneaslness, though the feeling this
morning is somewhat more assuring than last
evening.
The Constitutional, the Imperial organ, an
nounces to-day that senor Olozaga, the Spanish
Minister to France, has received instructions
from Spain to give official notice to the French
Government of the candidature of Prince
Leopold of Hohenzolern. The Constitutional
adds that when France becomes convinced of
the persistence of Spain in this matter she will
terminate diplomatic relations with her.
No definite intelligence has been received from
Prussia, but France will not rest content with
the evasive declaration of Count Won Bismarck
Prussia ought, in the interest of the peace of
Europe, to withhold her consent for Prince
Hohenzolern to sit upon the throne of Spain.
From various semi-oficial journals this morn
ing are gathered the following details touching
the condition of the candidature of Prince of
Hohenzollern:-Gen Prim meant hostility
when the Spanish Government notified the
great powers of Europe of Prince Hohenzol-
lerns candidature. On the Sd of July General
Prim advised Senor Olozaga, the Spanish Minis
ter here, that he General Prim) had chosen
Prince Leopold that the Spanish Ministry felt
assured that the French Government would
object to it, but that he depended upon the
higher sentiments of the Emperor. This proves
that General Prim meant to act without the con-
sent of the latter.
France has communicated with the other
powers of Europe, and in all cases has received
words of sympathy. All she now seeks at Berlin
and Madrid isto prevent political complications.
The despatch recently forwarded to the
Spanish government by the Duke of Gramont
has been made public to-day. The Duke says
that France hopes Spain will renounce the
only candidate for the throne who is altogether
disagreeable.
