THE PRINCE HoHENzoLLES ANiuuLgEa dSPASIsH
THRONE.-A cable dispatch annoinces th6t Sagasta
and other members Of the SerPano, cabinet, which IL
now attempting to govern Spain, favor the renewal
Of the Hohenzollern candidature for the throne Of
that country. 1t was well known that Serrano, Pres
ident Of the Council, and Sagasta are both monarch
lists, and it was Serrano who was mainly instrumental
in bringing the Prince Hohenzollern forward in
1870, when his candidacy oceasioned the Franco-Ger-
man war. 1t has recently been said that Serrano was
quietly working to convert Spain again into a mon
arcby, with Alfonso, Prince Of Asturia. son Of the
deposed Queen Isabella, on the throne. IL will be re-
membered that when the name Of Hohenzollern was
withdrawn in 1870, the Emperor William refused 70
give a pIo1se not TO sanction his candidacy at q fu-
lure time, and it was this refusal which the late Ma
poleon made the pretext for a declaration Of war.
Spanish politics are ever changing, and although the
present report, which comes from a French source,
may not be entirely authentic, it is significant that
the same power which offered Prince HohenzoIlern
the Spanish throne in 1870 still rules at Madrid. The
former offer Of the throne TO this German Prince led
to the most sanguinary war OF modern times, and q
renewal of the offer at this time viii at least be sure
to cause serious sgitation. -Builefin.
