TUESDAY EVENING, JAN. 8, 1871.
Death of General PrIm.


The cable brings us the announce
ment Of the death, from his wounds, OF
the Spanish statesman and soldier, Gen
eral Prim. On the evening of the 28th
ult., as be was leaving the Cortes. a
number of shots were fred at his carriage
by band of assassins in the street.
Among the royaists great indignation was
expressed at the dastardly act but,
strange to say, no arrests were made, the
people generally exhibiting nothing but
sullen Indifference. His assassination was
the result of conspiracy to e1terminate
the enemies Of a republican form of gov
eminent.
For several days his wounds were not
regarded as dangerous and on the 10th,
General Sickles, the American Minister,
called upon him to congratulate him on
his escape. On the Both ult., the Cortes
adopted resolution expressive of horror
at the attempt to assassinste General Prim,
and on the same day seven of the eight
balls imbedded in his person were ex-
BILE. 1t is probable that his true condition
was not made public for prudential rea-
sons.
The history of General Prim for the
last two years in connection with Spanish
affairs is well known. A great soldier,
General Prim was an incorporating
royalist, and for two years past has been
prominent in the Provisional Government
of Spain. At the time of his death he
was President Of the Council and Minister
of Foreign Alters and War. During the
late rebellion in this country he visited
the Army Of the Potomac, then under
the command of General Mcclellan, and
was everywhere received with the dis
tinguished attention due his prominence
as a soldier of Spain.
A foreign dispatch announces the arrival
of the Duke Of Aosta, the new King of
Spain, at Carthagena, on his way to Mad
rid, and states that he was received with
hattering demonstrations. The fact cam
not be concealed, however, that the peo-
pie are determined to have Republic,
and will not brook King. The assassi-
nation of Prim proves to have been part
of regular plan to prevent the elevation
of Aosta to the throne, and to inaugurate
Republic. However we may condemn
the means, we must certainly sympathize
with the object. Meanwhile it would seem
as though the whole country were in an
uproar and rife for rebellion. The soldiers
are mutnous, the populace sullen and in
different, and military movements going
on everywhere The burning eloquence
of CASTELAR, has lit fame in Spain which
threatens to destroy the last vestige of
monarchical rule Washington Chronicle.

she takes half as much pains with her heart

he reached us, he made two attempts to 60
into the yard OF small house; but the gate
was heavy, and would swing back before be
could get through.

lightly forward, "Pll hold the gate open.'

smile as she went on. ,'...'''-,i
