The War In Spain.

The HERALD special telegram from Madrid,
with other reports from the Spanish capital,
which we publish to-day. supplies fresh evi-
dence OF the fact that the war between the
republican forces and the Carlists is still
waged with great animation at certain points
of the territory, and that very many lives are
lost and large number of persons wounded
and manned in the combats General Portilla
gained, as we are specially assured, very i'm
portant victory over the Carlists on the 21st
instant, the result of the fighting enabling
him to break the Gordon of military union and
field communication which existed between
the Bourbonists under Ollo and Dorregaray
The routed Carlists may possibly reunite, but
they were, at the moment, hotly pursued by
the columns Of the government army. The
Carlists, in contradiction to Madrid bulletin,
assert that their soldiers were not beaten but,
on the contrary, gained victory. The ques-
tion of Cuba is still under consideration in
the Spanish Cabinet. The provinces and
cities OF Spain remain in an excited condition
Barcelona has been disturbed by riot between
citizens and government soldiers. In the
meantime the Carlist agents appear to be very
active in England, Queen Victoria's govern
ment having been just compelled to seize and
embargo two vessels which are it is stated,
laden with munitions of war for the Iberian
royalists.

The Campaign In Massac chusetts.

The Cincinnati Commercial says that as Gen.
eral Butler has opened his gubernatorial cam
paign in Massachusetts, by speech on defence
Of the salary grab, ''let him stick to it and
against all odds. Let him ask the people to
vote for him as its great defender, if not its
author. We want to see the matter tested,
and he is the proper man to put it to the test"
Butler is now in o position similar to that he
occupied in the beginning of the old coalition
times in Massachusetts. He was then demo-
crat and the great defender, if not the father,
Of that coalition between democrats and free
soilers which eventually led to the organiza-
tion Of the great republican party that has
accomplished such startling results within the
last thirteen or fourteen years. The coalition
was very unpopular among democrats at the
outset, and when in democratic State con-
vention held in Springfield the old hunkers,
being in majority, denounced afiliation with
the free soilers and impugned the motives OF
those democrats who favored the movement,
General Butler took the stand, and in his own
vigorous and whirlwind style declared that
he would ''stick to what he had done, and if he
was compelled to he would do it over again.
So with the salary grab. He seems determined
to stick to what he has done, but it is ques-
ton whether he would ''do it over again if
he had the opportunity. The gubernatorial
campaign in Massachusetts,, we may add, has
opened with considerable spirit for the re-
publican nomination, Butler, as he did last
year, taking the stump in advocacy of his own
nomination.

The Ministerial Crisis In Spain.

1t is only few days since Sehor Pi Mar
gall came into power at the head of Minis
try which seemed equal to the situation.
Already that Ministry has resigned and Spain
is passing through another Cabinet crisis.
Evidently things are far from being right in
that unhappy country. Sefor Pi Margall
has asked time to form new Cabinet and
has been postponed until Friday. This Cabi-
net crisis does not promise well for the fed
eral Republic. Another piece of news is to
the effecs that Marfori and De Rodas are in
Lisbon, as if ready to appear on Spanish soil
when the first opportunity presents itself.
seeking an audience Of the Pope. Add to oil
this the fact that Serrano and other royalists,
now ON French SOIL are conspiring against
the present government What does it all
mean? Does it not seem to justify the state
ment made by Fgueras to our correspondent
that the issue Of the present state of things
would be either the restoration Of the mon
archy, with Alfonso as King or the establish
ment Of the federal Republic. The federal
Republic has been established. But it is
by no means certain that the monarchy,
with Don Alfonso as King, will not
also soon be restored. The avowed object
of Serrano and his friends is not the restora-
don Of the monarchy, but the establishment of
aunitarian republic. It is undeniable, however,
that the unitarian Republic means the mon
archy. Sucha conspiracy, directed by such
men, indicates real danger to the Republic.
The reaction which has taken place in France
has, It would seem, prompted the Spanish
royalists to make bold and vigorous effort.
We may have startling news from Spain at any
moment. Everything depends on the army.
Overtures have been made to the Carlist chiefs;
but it does not seem as if the Carlists were
quite prepared to give up their man. It was
the opinion Of Fgueras that the Carlist off,
GERS were really fighting for Alfonso and
although the negotiations have not yet been
crowned with success it will not surprise us
to learn that the Carlist leaders and the
serrano party have united in the interest Of
thu Prince Of Asturias. 1t is king which is
waned by the more prominent adherents of
the Csrlist party; and provided king can be
had it viii be found to be q secondary ques-
ton whether the King be Carlos or Alfonso.
1t does seem as if the revolution had spent
itself, and as if reaction had set in with o
powerful tide.

lege, Fourth street, near Broadway. very large
attendance Of interested spectators were present.
The number Of competitors was five, and the am

observed. Miss Clara Collard proved herself the
successful competitor by her proficiency in each
branch OF knowledge which the examination COM
prised. The second place OF merit fairly and well
deserved, was given to Miss Mary F. Wright. The
judges presiding yesterday were Doctors Howard
and Crosby and the Rev. Drs. Cyrus and Foss. The

warm congratulations.
