DIR. Greeley's advice to impecunious city peo-
Ile to Ego west is being acted on by many
New Workers of both sexes. The first meeting
of the woman's real estate association, organ
lied to encourage emigration to Oregon, was
held On Tuesday afternoon, and about fifteen
young and fashionably dressed women contrived
to get through a large amount of business in a
wonderfully short time. The same number of
men would doubtless have wasted much timein
FurToseless talk; but this meeting adjourned
within quarter OF an hour Of its opening, after
organizing, choosing directors, adopting by
laws, and transaeting other business. The
friends Of the Puget-sound emigration scheme
met the same evening, and were addressed by
Mr. Greeley, who, while warmly advocating the
cause Of western emigration, cautioned intend
ing settlers against expecting anything even
distantly approaching comfort for a considera-
BE length of time. There were some people
who could never be contented, and if the Gar
den OF Eden were situated in the centre OF the
continent, one-half the inhabitants would be
Iullirg up their stakes and moving further

"Lopg live Charles the SEVENTH "Death to
the libeTals.'' are the cries raised by the Car
list bands, which are increasing in numbers
throughout Spain. The advent of Don Carlos
is momentarily expected. This is the third Don
Carlos that the century has seen. The first was
the younger brother of Ferdinand VII, who be-
came king by the abdcation Of Charles ", in
1908. He remained heir-presumptive to the
throne from the date of the restoration of Fer
dinand VII, in 1914, until the enactment of the
''pragmatic sanction in 1880, the effect of
which was to abolish the salique law prohibit
ing the succession OF females to the crown.
The ex-Queen Isabella was born in the same
year, and on the death of her father, i'm
1883, she took the place formerly occupied by
Den Carlos as heir presumptive to the throne
He maintained, nevertheless, that he was the
legitimate successor of the late King and took
tie title OF Charles v. In 1884 he appeared In
aims, and for five years Spain was the prey of
civil war; till the treason Of one of his ge nerals
forced Don Carlos to abandon the struggle.
Isabella III, then girl of thirteen, was elevated
20 the throne in 'i3, andin '45 Don Carlos trans.
ferred all his rights in the succession to his son.

Gen. OTtega, governor of the Balearic Isles.
landed at TOrtosa, in Valentia, with 900 men.
and declared the Count Montemoln King, nm
der the title of Charles vi. He and his brother
Ferdinand were shortly afterward arrested. and
compelled to renounce all claim to the throne.
lie died in 1861, and the inherltor of his preten-
sions, who has now been proclaimed under the
title OF "Charles VII, Is a man OF twenty-four.
The outbreak looks formidable in the dispatches
and adds seriously to the embarrassment of the
yOurg King Amadeus, who is certainly not
having an easy time of it. He arrived in Spain
December 30th, 1870. Since that period there
have been at least seven changes i'm the min
istry, and the country has been the scene of con-
slant political discord. This is not to be won
dered at, for, in addition to the rebellous Gear
lists, }" there are half a dozen other contending
parties to deal with, and there discussions in
side every one OF these parties. Conservatives
TrOgresistas, democrats, republicans, socialists,
internatOnals, amadaists, montpensierists, al
consists, &C., are all striving for the mastery:
hut as no one party has hitherto been strong
enough to hold its ground against the others
they have been in the habit of resorting to coal,
tons for the purpose of ousting those who are in
Office; but when this object has been attained
the coalition has tumbled to pieces in the strug-
gle for the spoils, and the turmoil begins afresh

The struggle which appears to be imminent in
Spain; It Ii thought In Paris, will be q severe
one. The Carlists in arms are estimated to
number ten thousand. They are reported to
have been victorious In two engagements with
the Spanish troops near Blbos, in the depart
mentof Biscay. The Madrid Ibeyia saws thatone
OF their bands had been defeated by the govern
ment forces, and thirty of them made prisoners
The whereabouts Of Don Carlos seems to be still
unknown; the arrest Of his brother In Marseilles
is supposed to have been ruse of the Carlists
to divert attention from their leader.
SPEECH or KING AMADEUS.
King Amadeus delivered his speech In person
at the opening of the Cortes yesterday. In re-
lation to the movements of the Carlists the King
says: "a party, denying the legitimacy OF
modern right and q stubborn enemy to the ma
tioDai institutions, after its defeat at the cleo
lions, rises in arms in some Of the provinces.
The government has taken effective measures to
promptly crush the instruction. Taught by ex.
Perience the futility of the policy of clemency,
II Will be inexorable in its punishment of con.
slant enemies OF liberty and disturbers of peace.
III ordinary measures prove insufficient the gov
eminent will ask the sanction of the Cortes for
others, which may be necessary to restore the
reign of law" The King expresses hopes OF a
prompt termination of the insure ction, and asks
in the Cortes q guide and means of identifying
himself with the nation. The speech concludes
as follows: "While never impose myself upon
SpaDiards against their will, will never desert
the post to which they have called me- the con-
stitutional duties or which will fulfill with the
loyalty and constancy due to the honor of nv
name"
