The New Spanish Minister.

Don Jose Polo de Barnabe, since 1869 Rear Ad-
miral or the Spanish navy and lately commander Of
q squadron the Mediterranean, is yet In the prime
OF life and q man OF great energy, but. to Judge
from his autecedents, scarcely fitted to fill the
part OF diplomatic representative. He has
passed the greater part Of bs naval career in and
around Cuba, and is therefore well acquainted with
the affairs or that island. His Appointment, coupled
with that OF Marshal Concha, seems certainly un-
favorable to the maintenance OF friendly relations
between the United Stares and Spain. Admiral Polo
de Barnabe made himself prominent under the
reign or Queen Isabella, by advocating violent
measures against the South American republics.
particularly against the republic Of Peru
He was SO violent in his attack on the government
for what he called its trucking the United States
and IN demanding o more vigorous prosecution OF
the war that he was removed from his position He
predicted that the defeat OF the Peruvlans would
ultimately lead to the restoration OF Spain's
supremacy over all her former colonies in South
roy court his violent denunciatlOn OF the govern
mont on this question made him quite
and when ne was removed from his command in
the navy he was Immediately chosen a member OF
the COrtes, where he continued his attacks on the
Cabinet. He has published pamphlet entitled
1.-The Future Greatness OF Spain, which, in one OF
Its chapters, treated the relations or Spain to the
United States Admiral Polo contended In it that
the Monroe doctrine was an insoent assumption
the part OF the United States and that Spain had
try to disregard and DEFY It. 1ne author also tried
to prove, from documents relating 10 the war
against the rebellion that the aggressive strength
or the United States was far inferior to that or
SPAN; that the American navy was unable to cope
with the spanish leer. and that war between the
two countries would be certain TO end In favor or
Spain, the more so Spanish privateerS
could not only greatly injure, but totally destroy,
After the overthrow OF Queen Isabella IN Septem-
ber. 1885, Admiral Polo was renstated in his former
position, and became the most faithful adherent OF
the position OF Assistant Secretary OF the Navy.
Having taken an active part IN the intrigues which
led 70 the election OF King Amadeus he
was rewarded with promotion ana placed
in command OF the Spanish feet IN the
Mediterranean. He has ever since been favorite
at the Court OF the new monarch. AS regards the
Cuban question. Admiral Polo has always voted In
the COrteS In favor OF the most rigorous measures
for the suppression OF the rebellion. The AM
basSad0r Is said to re perfect nreeater and to
Snrtafn the most exaggerated ideas or the power

WASHINGTON. Dec 20, 1871.
Senior Roberts, the Spanish Minister, has received
ofncial notification OF his recall which was partly
due TO the influence OF Marshal Concha, who ac-
.cepted the Captain Generalship only on condition
that the Legation at Washington should be filled
by nominee OF his own. General Crcspo Acting
CAPTAIN General during the late massacre OF
the students, and all the heads OF departments IN
Cuba have also been removed, and their places are
to be file0 by men OF Concha's choice. Admiral
Polo de Barnabe, the successor OF Senior Roberts,
will leave Madrid without delay.
The changes in the government OF Cuba, as well
In the representation OF the Spanish government
here. Is the bject OF considerable speculation.
The fact that Concha is even more the tool Of the
volunteers than Vamaseda Is regarded BY the
friends Of the Cuban patriots in no way encourage
ing, and the change from the warlike tone OF our
own government is considered extremely ominous.

POPULAR ERRORS.

How is this? It is current belief with
thousands of people that there are GER
tain powerful beings in existence who
hold in their possession the most extra
ordinary secrets. For instance, a woman
in st. Louis has made out an affidavit that
her husband has been seduced from bis
love for her by potent drugs administered
in the interest of another woman, and
that although she has used the same drug
to recover his wandering affections, she
been unsuccessful Her only reliance
now il on tie police-that they, with
their clubs and warrants, may bring her
truant lord and his affections back to her
She paid FIVE dollars for the love medicine
which she used before applying to the
guardians Of the peace. This woman is
only the type Of thousands of Others who
believe as she does, that there are potions
that move the human heart to love or
hate Anda vast army of empires live
by cultivating this belief and selling these
pretended medicines. Probably the reader
of this article can call to mind individuals
of his own cognizance who are now labor
ing under this strange fancy. Did it ever
occur to the st. Louis character that
if there was any truth in her affidavit the
medicine should have been as powerful to
restore her husbands love as it was to
withdraw it
Then again we have another class who
spend many hours and much of their
money listening to and paying for the
tabrications of fortllne-tellers. Men and
women alike, engage i'll this delusive hunt
for secrets that no mortal is allowed to
possess. No darkened room or mystic
glass can reveal the unsearchable here
after. All that we can do is to wait. No
herb can mould the affections or turn the
eye of love away from the form or face
that is shrined in the heart. And it should
appear SO to every sensible man or woman.
If the mysterious agencies had ever been
discovered by which one man or one
woman could disclose the future, or alter
/. the true and loyal course of genuine
love, they would not now be secret.
Too many powerful kings and
queens have striven for these secrets
without success, to allow that they
were i'll the possession of any human
being. Is it supposable that if the for
tune-tellers could disclose the future, as
they declare they can, that they would

ON CARONDELET STREET.

The only topic Of conversation ana DIS
cllso:on on Carondeict street, yesterday,
was the sudden and terrific onslaught on
the Slaushtcr!louse Company made by
the House OF Representatives, The day
before holders OF the stock had conso.ed
themselves with the hope that tne con-
,aryative wisdom of the Senate would
come 20 the rescI!c OF the company and
defeat the designs OF the House. Jester
day this consolation seemed to be grow
in3 weaker, anu to be accompanied by Il
corresponding depression OF the stock.
Hope o. defense in the Seuate gradually
faded away. and tie stock fell point by
point until it was freely offered at seven
teen without finding purchasers, The
prevailing IMPRESSION seemed to be that
the Senate would pas, the House bill. and
toward evening this impression grew to
L conviction which appeared to be found

amply able to defend itself in the courts,
and successfully resist the attempt to to-

the action OF the Legislature has certainly

conspicuous yesterday that nothing else

attention. Some person, tried to excite
interest III this stock by declaring that it

been refused for it, but only aroused a
