Don carlos Gle BOURBON, Iukc u
Madrid, called the Pre;ender. but who
il st vled by his followers As Charles
VII. is the eldest son of Don Juan.
who was the see md son Il Don Car
los, Count of Montenlolin. who died
January =. l>6l. The present Don
Carlos de Bourbon was born in Aus
tria. in March, Isis. and j. How -
years Of age. He i said to he a man
AT easy access and without any trtc@o OF
hautiness in his deneanor. We learn
that i'll his composition the ~chaFaczer-
iSticS that should belong 10 the >oveg-
eign. the statesman. or the warrior. are
extremely deficient: although he y
very fond OF playing the prince, i'll

fashion of Spanish kings, not cXclud-
ing his counseIor>. some OF whom are
thrice his age. and surrounding HIM
self with a large number Of aide-de-
camps. secretaries. etc. all 81 whom
Svcuphan:lv make il their aim to fiat
ter his pride. His political notions
seem 10 be ola Very unsettled chaFat-
ter. and on political View, Il Is never
able to make out the substance OF his
opinions. Having been educated III
Europe. and having lived constantly
under European influences. lie las un-
consciously imbibed the political IDEAS
Of the aye. I, i though; lie would
make a very fair constitutional King,
We're lie properly restricted by law.
In his assurances, he declares that he
never intends TO carry out a5>oiui>,
theories: that II he ever COMES L.
reign. he will reign only with the a.
vice OF d freely elected Corte>: that
though he greatly respects The clergy.
he does not like their interfering in lay
or political matters: and tht the
promises he has made - the northern
provinces of Spain. OF re-establishing
their ancient f~uerOS. is the best proof
tina; he means 10 revive decentraijza-
ton and ancient provincial and NUM-
eipal liberties. These things he has
declared in several OF his manifcStue>.
When he crossed the frontier into
Spain, in July. he a greeted on a.!
sides with the greatest enthusiasm. and
there was scarcely an ab!e-boQ!ed man
in the northern provinces that did not
Join the Cari>t forces: and il a few
months thirty battalion> OF troops
were formed out of the few bands
which We're scattered about the Ma
ware mountains in the Spring of I>73.
The presence of the Pratender created
such a feeling in the northern pruNiH-
ce> of spain. that with the exception ri:

the unhappy Austrian prince. Ye: all
these dirctul ap~prehensions do not
seem to occur either 70 Don Carlos or
any Of his generals. They undergo
daily all kinds OF priya;ion, ana hard
ships, living and sleeping in the most
frugal and inconvc"ient manner, and
fight almost daily the sort of little
mountain skirnishes which do no.
