The latest news from Spain is little more
hopeful for the Republic, the tidings Of the
government victory at Malaga being o cheer
full indication for the friends of order But
one triumph cannot dispel the cloud which
overhangs the country; one successful battle
cannot uproot anarchy 80 deep-seated. The
real condition of unhappy Spain is photo
graphed in the letters of tie special CORE
spondents of the HERALD which we print this
morning. The cruelties described in one of these
letters are heartrending. The alcaldes, or may
ors, of the smaller cities in the insurgent dis
tricts seem to suffer every class of outrages
which an infuriate mob can infict. One of
these, the Alcalde Of Alcoy. was dragged naked
through the streets, and two members of the
Town Council were drowned ia baths of Pc
troleum and their bodies afterward burned
These stories are almost beyond belief, but
there are so many of them told from day to
day at Madrid. and Spanish cruelty is a thing
SO fearful in itself, that it would be more won
derful still if they were not true Another of
our letters this morning gives very different
account of the courtesies which pass between the
Carlists and the government troops. We are
even told that the Carlists, on vacating LEILA,
ordered hot breakfast for the pursuing
forces, and that wine enough was supplied for
20, 600 men. Is this the way Castai1on and Nou-
villas fight each other? The same letter de-
scribes the laundering warfare of the republi-
can Commander-in-Chief. Then we have q
graphic account of the death of General Ca
brinetty, shot by his own troops before they
voluntarily surrendered to the Carlists. We
have also an interview with Don Alfonso, and,
altogether, the series of letters is most inter-
esting, giving an exceedingly graphic as we'll as
a very painful picture of the anarchy which
exists in Spain.
