LONDON, July THE Times to-day
refers to the military and political situ-
alton in Spain and gives gloomy view
of the Alfonsoist cause. 1t says the
recent minor successes of Jovellar have
been outweighed by reverses elsewhere,
and the Carlists seem about to give for
ward march. All the bright hopes Al
fonso brought to Spain have vanished
and his best Generals are less active
than heretofore. They have met defeat
instead of victory and the King has not
been more successful in Madrid. He
has failed to satisfy the Church and has
enraged the liberals. Hence thu minis
try seem ready to try the effect of as
much religious toleration as will permit
protestarts to worship in the back
streets. But such concession will dis
gust clericals ard not satisfy Alfonso's
political supporters. Neither has the
King made peace between the waring
factions. The Press is ihuzzled to pre-
vent it from being disloyal and there are
no funds to pay, the army and navy.
ROME, July Tho Otinions an

sion appointed to consider whether it

LONDON. July Sin the House of
Commons this evening, John Bright
presented petition signed by 10000
members of the agricultural laborer's
union and others, asking extension of
household suffrage to counties and
boroughs, and for redistribution of
parliamentary seats. Trevelyan moved
a second reading of the household fran
chise or counties bills. Hon. P. W. E..
Forster supported the bill. The princi-
pie involved had already besn decided
upon its merits by all perties. The
proposed measure was one of such pure
justice that its eventual passage was
inevitable. Henry Fawcett said the
agricultural laborers had been neglected
in regard to education and other things,
because they had not been enfranchised.
The House would ultimately be obliged
to concede the demands of an indignant
people. The speakers on the other
side pointed to the large majority
against the bill at tho last session and
urged that the measure was inoppor-
tune. The House divided and the mo-
ton for second reading of the bill was
lost by vote of 16G yeas to 26S nays.
