The ReveIatiea a Spain.

There is no question about the fact
that the recent changes in the govern
ment Of Spain have been looked for
ward TO with grave concern on the part
OF this government The Nshsnal Re,
publican OF this morHiug. in an article
probably inspired officially, says tha,
the existing trouble at Madrid may pro-
duce delay in the settlement OF the
differences between the two govern.
ments. IL is known that very soon the
United States intended to open negoti-
ations for the establishment Of some
provision against the recurrence OF
troubles arising from the condition OF
affairs in Cuba. The character OF
these provisions Is yet sbroudei in mys
terry which envelops the future; but it
is believed that they contemplate such
an independence OF the island aud such
an amenabilIty OF its people to the
laws OF civilization as will iu-
sure peace and qnict between the two
Governments" ltis pretty certain that
any such ideas as; the foregoing will be
unceremouiously scented BY the Serra-
no Ministry. But this is not all. The
American Government is said 10 have
adviCCs from Spain that the new Min
istry Is hostile 10 the recent protocol.
and It is apprshepded tha, Spain will
take advantage OF the inability OF this
Government to proceed iadicially
agaius: the Nirginlus. and refuse TO 60
on with the urlher execution OF the
protocol. II is possible that this
matter may have been msgnlfed by
Minister SIckles for his own purposes,
but the possibility Of It's truth has
cau-ed here the most serlOus coutider-
alton OF the Cuban question, and an
uneasy looking 10 the future. In case
the Spanish Ministry 20 back on the
protocol, it ia said by those having 10.
timstc relations with the President.
that the Government will not treat Il ~
cause OF war. but will quietly give
the Cuban sympstbizers in the United
States chances tor aiding their friends
which have heretofore been denied
them.

PHILADELPHIA.

PHILADELPHIA, January S.-Gorern-
or Hartranft's first annual message,sent
to the legislature, gives gratifying e1'
hibit of affairs. The State debt was
reduced a million and half during
1878. Annual receipts, 1856, ,9l7 .SSl
disbursements, $673, ,402,727; whole
State debt, 2,579, ,6S2. l94. Of which sum
81, $l,lO2,5I5,l24 ia provided for in the
sinking fund. The Governor gives a
cordial support to the new constitution.
and says the reform cannot be obtained
by mere constitutional ensctments, but
by surrounding Offices and trusts with
additional restraints. There must be
a disposition OF the people to comply
with the demands o! the law, and the
determination OF those delegated TO
execute them to see that their mandates
are enforced.

REFUSED A HEARING,

In the cards published in the A,gus come
time ago, by Myres and the argus Direc-
tors, there was considerable backbting, cross
firing, etc., each party claiming to be right,
and denouncing the other as wrong. We
do not know exactly, nor care, who was
right. or who was wrong. Myres was right
IN defending his property, and in critcisng
the official acts Of Judge Reardan, if there
was any ground for criticism, but he was
not right when in that criticism he used some
terms, which would have been better sup
piled with more elegant expressions. The
Directors were right, when they found them
selves in pot of hot water, in trying to get
out of it: but it was not right for them, in
order to give, as they doubtless thought,
better appearance to their side of the ques-
tion, to go beyond all reason in denouncing
both Myres and Mcneil They said Myres'
card was "fase, "brutal," "disgustng"
and 'libelous." These were indeed very
hard terms, and it seems Mr. Myers thought
they were not merited Firm in this belief,
and desiring only what was fair, he wrote
ont about fifteen or tweuty lines, politely
asking the Directors of the Argus to pub
licly point out wherein bis card was false,
brutal, or libelous, stating if they could not,
CT would not do it, they, and not he, musl
be held to be the guilty parties, in the eyes
of an impartial public This little card he
politely requested them to publish, as mere
matter of justice to himself, and they re-
fused to do so. Thus they have unprovok
ingly abused citizen, and refuse the trivial
