As ii was not supposed that the Cas-
telar government would be Of long
continuance, a change was expected,
but not in the manner yesterday re-
ported from Madrid, and therefore The
cOap d etat Of General pavia excited
much surprise in diplomatic and other
circles, his nmonot having heretofore
been mentionedin any manner which
would occasion even suspicion of such
move on his part. Specu|alons are
freely expressed as TO the future, and
the general opinion is that the Republic
can cause has been damaged by the
late revolutionary proceeding. The
official information thus far received
is Of so me6ger a character as to afford
no basis for reliable comment.
The CASTELAR, government had dur
ing the Nirginius negotiations repeat
edly declared not only its i'riendlnesa
toward the United States, but its desire
to draw still closer the relations Of the
governments, and our own govern
ment evinced like amicab!2 feeling
toward Spain, even taking the nego-
tiation out Of the hands of General
Sickles, in order TO be in better accord
with the Castelar, government The
friends Of that government in Con-
gresS and executive circles regret the
recent event in Spain as likely to delay
the promised reforms in the Antilles
and of preventing such negotiations
through General Gushing rs would
tend to pacilication in Cuba and Porto
Rico, and at the same time protect
Americans in Cuban waters from the
annoyance and outrages to which they
have been so frequently subjected.
There are official dispatches to the
effect that Pavia is to becourt-martialed
for rebellion, that his forces are dis
armed and that the government is
undergoing reorganization under Mar
shat '5errano. Explicit details are in
accessible, tonight, here.
