Advices from Spain, received in London
Goth, say that Gen. Zeballo, the Carlist
leader, was marching on Madrid with four bat
tslions. Foreign men-of-war were cruising
off the Spanish coasts, to protect the SUBJ
jects of their respective Gov
ernments. Italy, Austria, and q ma
jority of the European powers main
tain semi-oficia relations with Spain, pend
ing the formation of a regular government.
Russia is not disposed to recognize, in any
manner, the present government. The gov
ernment was organizing an army of 20 battal-
ions to fight the Carlist Insurgents. The
leading governments of Europe had agreed
to protect Portugal against aggression from
Spain. The Swiss government had formally
recognized the Republic of Spain.

London dispatch, 26th, says that Sir
Rowland Stephenson is acting as mediator
between the masters and men in South
Wales for the settlement of the strike. 1t

crease of wages they demand is not con-
ceded. The mining districts are quiet.
A dispatch from Vienna, 26th, says that a
socialist insurection is reported among the
peasants in the Russian provinces of VAL
hynia and Podolia. The insurgents are said
to be numbering their opponents, plumber
ing and burning property. A force of Rus
sian troops sent to suppress the insurrection
was defeated. The Government of Russia
forbids the transmission of any dispatches
relative to the trouble.
Madrid advices of the 9th, say that Senior
CASTELAR, had addressed memorandum to
the foreign powers, urging the immediate
recognition of the Republic. He argues that
the European powers, having recognized the
revolution of 1868, cannot refuse similar
action with regard to the Republic,
which is the logical consequence of
the events of 1868, now that royalty
has abdicated. The Spanish Republic
will not be a brand of discord for
Europe. The transformation the country
has gone through is purely internal. For
eign nations should not demand of the Gov
ernment energetic action, while they with
held from it their moral support. The mem
orandum had been forwarded by telegraph
to the principal capitals of Europe.
At Liverpool, Eng, recently, five women
lost their lives by fire which occurred in a
