THE NEW SPANISH GOVERNMENT

THE NEW SPANISH GOVERNMENT.
Our dispatches this morning give a full and
satisfactory account of the prompt and bust
ness-like way in which the Spanish revolution
was accomplished. The final resolution was
moved by Se1or Pi y Margall, man too cool
and self possessed to make any mistakes, even
in the enthusiasm of such a moment. 1t con-
sisted of several propositions, including the
declaration of the Republic, the assumption of
sovereign powers by the COrtes, the appoint
ment of responsible Ministry, and the ques-
ton of the election of Constituent Assembly
The last clause wls temporarily postponed, but
the others were passed with something like unan-
unity. Ruiz Zorrilla made his appearance on the
floor, and a sharp passage took place between
him and RiverO the President OF the Cortes
who seemed disposed to magnify his Office
On being called to account by bis old asS0-
ciate, Martos, he left the Chamber, and
FiguerOla, for a long time Minister of Finance,
who is named by Office-seekers who have read
French history, the Necker OF Spain, was
called to the Chair. AT the moment Rlver0
was thus shaking the dust OF the Congress
from his shoes dispatch was on its way to
London, announcing that he would probably
be President of the Provisional Republic.
That honor was reserved for a firmer and
more consistent Republican. If any man In
Spain could be said to have a claim upon the
position of Chief of the Provisional Govern
ment, that man is unQuestiOnably Estanisao
Figueras He has stood for four years at the
head of the Republican minority in the COrtes,
its first parliamentarian, as CASTELAR, was
its first orator. There is no Republican
in Spain so generally respected ana
esteemed by the Monarchists. He is a
man of great energy of character, good
LAWYER and thoroughly reputable citizen.
At his hands, at least, it is certain the Re
public will receive no detrment Associated
with him in the Government are the two dis
tinguished Republican leaders, Pi Margall as
Minister of the Interior and CASTELAR, as Secre-
tarv of State. Their eminence in the party
and the COrtes made their appointments
matter of course. The Samerons have
the portfolios of Justice and the Colonies
nominations which promise well for the cause
of emancipation in the Antilles. The rest OF
the Cabinet is composed of old and expert
enced statesmen and soldiers. COrdova is Min
ister of War, and Beranger is again at home
in the Navy Department. Becerra goes to the
Public Works. and Echegaray resumes the
portfolio of Finance. He is a man of industry
and talent, and will find full employment
in that department for all his powers.
The composition of the Government indicates
that there is q complete fusion between the
Radicals and the Republicans, and this insures
trusty majority in the present Congress and
an easy victory in the coming elections. The
new Republic enters upon its thOrny way under
good auspices. The only fault we can find
with the construction of the Cabinet is that
it will probably deprive us of the services OF
our invaluable regular correspondent, Don
Emilio CASTELAR,.

Mr.. p. H. Watson deserves all the congratulations
he is receiving for the admirable management that
enables his Board Of Directors to bring the Erie
once more into the list Of diyidendpayin roads
During the war Mr. Watson enjoyed the reputation
of being of the very ablest administrative officers
summoned by the great exigency to Washington.
In an Office almost as difficult. he has now shown
ability even more marked. The Legislators at Tren-
ton and Albany who resent the judiciOus economy
which results in dividends by sending back their
passes, are building better than they know If now
Mr. Watson will only endesvOr to make
an end of the whole business OF giving
free passes to legislators, he will be taking
further step in the right direction.
The Legislature which leaves taxes uncol-
lected when it gets free passes and proposes to col
lect them the instant the passes are stopped or
abridged. occupies before the people an attitude
which makes its future friendship about as impu-
dent as It's hostility.

Now that a fresh snOw-storm has more
blockaded everything for the sixth eighth Tor is
it the tenthD time within month, the question of
saltng the streets by the railroad companies be-
comes again a very practical one. Thousands of
citizens find their horses useless through lameness
brought on by this wretched and illegal practice
The street railroad companies Systematically prac
tco it in defiance Of law and of the public Interest,"
and the owners of valuable horses submit, just as
citizens of all classes do to every species of outrage
in New-York. 1t is the most public spirited city in
the world and its citizens have the least spirit when
it comes to the question Of protecting their own
rights, OF freeing themselves from annoyances.

An incomplete exposition of the internal
affairs of the Market Bank, made by the in
yestigating committee, yesterday, shows
clear case of robbery and fraud. Positive
proof of the guilt of the officers of the bank
has been discovered on nearly every page of
their books. One lesson of this shameful
crime should be found in the recollection that
the guilty men were very loud in their decla-
rations of innocence when first accused.

The veto of the Kentucky Salt Works bill
by the President, was expected His disap-
proval of the bill for the relief of j. Milton
Best made similar rejection of this last
measure inevitable The same principles are
involved in each; and the President thinks
that no citizen should be indemnified for the
loss of property destroyed, during time of
war, to prevent its use by the enemy. The
Senate Committee on Claims sharply dissents
from this view of the case. 1t is satisfactory
that the President watches so closely the
course of these claims on the Treasury
whether he or Congress is technically right is
another question.

1t is time that the legislative servants Of
the railroad monopolists should come to some
understanding of the New-Jersey temper. In
a word, they are tired of having their devel-
Opment fettered by bonds so monstrous that
not another State in the Union would endure
them beyond an election, or suffer the men
that imposed them ever again to reach
the political surface. 1t is possible
that the monopolists may once more
win the victory, this Winter, at Trenton; but
it will be dear-bought We promise the peO-
pie that they shall have no difficulty in find
ing out who betray them. They want free
railroads. Let us see what legislators propose
to stand in their way.

understood that he will give them back their

that with them finally rests the choice of

A RUSSIAN MARRIAGE CEREMONY.

The bride and the bridegroom hold a
lighted taper in their hsnds in front Of a
small altar placed in the centre of the
church. Rings were placed on their fingers,
and their hands being joined, they were led
by the pope three times around the altar.
Two highly-ornamented gilt crowns were
placed on their heads and held over them
by the groomsmen during part Of the serY-
ices. They drank wine out Of cup three
times, and kissing one another, the cere-
mony was finished. The married couple
then made tour Of the church, crossing
themselves at and saluting each sanity
Icon on the way. Weddings generally
take place toward evening, so that imme-
diately after the ceremony, dinner COM
mence5 at the house OF the brides father.
At marriage feast lighted candles are
placed in every position and corner possi-
BILE. No other wine but champagne should
be drunk, and the quantity consumed
Of this beverage is remarkable. The din
ner is followed by a ball, and the feastiDg
is usually kept up for twenty-tour hours.
The custom of honeymOoning does not ex-
ist in Russia. The married couple spend
the first few days Of their welded life with
the BRIDES father. After the marriage the
bride and Bridegroom must call upon every
one of their relations, friends and aequaint'
ances, and after this ceremony is finished
they sink back to their ordinary life.

CHARACTERISTIC.

There are thousands Of thousands of
whom, if you take away their houses and
ships. and lands, snd fiscal skill, and such
other qualities belonging to them as they
will not want in heaven, there will not be
enough left to represent them there, of
righteousness, and godliness, and
faith, and love, and patience, and
meekness, and such like qualities. They
have used all the faculties up for fuel for
their machine. Il has been their business
in life to sacrifice probiLy that they might
be rich; that they might gain power and
influence; that they might make their hold
on this world broader and stronger. And
if they cannot carry forth these things,
which have been objects to the attainment
of which they have devoted all their ener-
gies, what is left for them to gosout of life
with?

The Supreme Court yesterday decided in
the case of Hutchings against the State 0f
California that settlement upon the public
domain does not confer such rights upon
the settler as will prevent Congress in its
discretion from disposing OF the land for
other purposes. Congress Is not restricted
in its power to dispose Of lands by sale or
