Particulars Of the Assassination Of
Marshal Prim.

The New York Herald's special cor
respondent at Madrid writes the 29th
of December in regard to the assassin
alton Of Prim:
/ 81 was at the opera when the news
first reached us. The curtain fell on
the first act, when, as the audience
strolled throug h the lobbies, a Govern
ment messenger rushed in with haste
inuuiring for Prim. Instantly, as il
by magic, the cry went forth all over
the house, 'Prim has been shot!
'Prim has been assassinated J! How
the news was first uttered aloud, how,
with electric rapidity, it ran over the
pit, the boxes, the gallery, and the sa.
looms, it is impossible to say but
as the cry spread the effect was
tremendous. Deciding to go to
the fountain-head for news, FASTENED
to the War Office, where the General
lives. There was crowd Of carriages
at the entrance OF the ornamentcd
grounds surrounding the palace OF war.
A thropg of idlers were obstructing the
sidewalks and ways, in spite Of the
thick snow As / went up the WIDE
staircase, the guard, which had been
instantly doubled, sorrowfully pointed
out the reddish blotches on the balus-
trade. THE Generals blood, he whis-
pered. The Generals AdUtant gave
me the first correct story He witness
cd the scene, having occupied front
seat in the carriage. His own version
of the affair is as follows: Prim and
two aids, as usual, left the Cortes at the
conclusion of the debate in the evening,
at half-past o'clock, and entered a
carriage and drove rapidly in the short
est way from the Cortes to the War
Office. The streets were deserted at
the time. At the point where the Gale
del Tured debouches into the Alcalla,
the broadcast street in the city, through
narrow passage, two hired cabs were
drawn up and obstructed the way. This
is so common an event, however, that it
would scarcely attract notice; but Lieut..
Mayo, my informant, dropped the glass
in the door nearest him and looked out
Just in time to see two men, who were
carrying guns under their long Andalu-
sian cloaks, advancing from the shadow
of the cabs. He had barely time to
cry out Stop, General. They are going
to fre!' when the muzzles of the blum
derbusses were dashed into the car
riage through the windows on either
hand, shivering the glass to atoms, and
the contents discharged point blank at
the occupants in the back seat, who
must have been undistinguishable in
the darkness. The next moment the
assassins darted back under cover OF
the cabs, and so around into the Al
Gala, where they mounted two horses
that were there tied to trees, and in an
instant were safe from pursuit because
of the snow and darkness. The coach
man dashed the horses forward against
number of cabs, upsetting one, and
drove in hot haste to the War Office,
where the wounded men alighted.
Prim simply remarked to the sentinel 4:
Il am wounded, but not much
