spain's Long War and What II
Was About.


We remarked in yesterdays paper
upon the defeat, rout and escape Of Dor
Carlos, the Spanish prctender, who has
been at the head OF an instruction il
Spain for the last three years. No doubI
many readers are in the dark as TO how
this long war commenced, and what il
was all about. It's origin dates back tc
the succession of Queen Isabella, the
mother OF the present King Alfonso
She was the only child OF the Bourbon
King Ferdinand VII, ard was born al
Madrid in 1880. Being a female, il
became necessary TO repeal the Sale law
in order that Isabella might succeed her
father on the throne Of Spain. This the
Cortes did, and by SO doing set aside the
rightful heir to the throne, Don Carlos, the
brother OF King Ferdinand. To be beaten
out of his lawful and time-honored rights
in this shabby manper was not according
to Don Carlos way OF thinking; and nc
cordingly he and his Son refused, point
blank, to take the oath Of allegiance to
Isabella. Nearly one-hulf Of Spain being
Of the same opinion as Carlos, civil war
for the throne at once ensued.
This ragged for nearly seven years, and
finally terminated, in 1910, in the utter
defeat OF Don Carlos, who escaped from
the country, waited for something to oc.
cur in his favor, and then resigned all
claims to the crown in favor Of his eldest
son, the Count Of Montemolin, who died
in 1851. His brother, Don Juan, now
inherited the claim to the throne. After
the revolution in September Of 1868, Don
Juan became tired of waiting, and abdi.
Gated his pretensions in favor OF his eld-
est son, the Duke Of Madrid. and the
present Don Carlos, the man who is now
in the hands Of the FrenchI authorities.
This Don was born in March, 1913, was
married in February, 1867, 10 daughter
otthe Duke OF Parma, and crossed the
Northern frontier Of Spain TO regain the
crown in July, 1869. Al first the Carlist
cause prospered but slowly. 1t gained
rapidly, however, upon the abdication OF
Amadeus in 1872, so that when CASTELAR,
came into power in 1873 he found twenty
Of the forty-nine provinces OF Spain un-
der the control Of Don Carlos. CASTELAR,
had accepted the Presidency Of the Span
ish Republic, however, only on the condi-
ton that he could suspend the Constitu-
ton and carry on the war against the
Carlists after his own fashion. This he
did, and checked the progress Of Don
Carlos arms. Since then the Pretcnder
has been slowly driven from Spain.
1t has taken three long years Of stub
born fighting and has bankrupted Spain
to do It, but she has done it efectually.
Like James Stuart, the old pretender,
Don Carlos has tried TO force himself
upon the people Of Spain and has only
succeeded in making martyr Of himself.
1t is now to be hoped that poor, battle
worn Spain will settle down and give her
impoverished people rest from the cost,
the sacrifices and anxieties OF war.

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.
Wrsn1Norov, D. 3. Feb. ., $50.

WASHINGTON, D, c. Feb. %, 1876.
Editors Of the 1ntellIEeneer; ~
/ notice that your paper Of the Goth,
Just received, contains the death Of VIM.
Ewing; an old and highly esteemed citi.
zen, and in fitting terms speaks Of his many
virtues az a citizen and friend.
I had the pleasure Of meeting Mr..
Ewing in this city few months since, and
was SO favorbly impressed with his kind
and genial spirit, and also with his clear
and intelligent views on the current
questions Of the day, that'I not only form
ed an attachment to him but gained much
useful information from him on many
subjects affecting the past and present
welfare Of the country. You will there
fore allow me to sympathise with you in
the loss Of another ofthose venerable and
long tried citizens, who have served faith
fully and we'll their day and generation.
1t may not be improper for me TO say
that Gen. James Ewing, ian only son Of
the deceased) is regarded here as a
worthy son OF an honored sire, and has
the warm and heartfeltsympathies Of nu'
merous friends in this hour Of his deep
aff1iction.
Congress is making slow progress in
the necessary and legitimate business Of
the country, each party being anxious to
make favorable record for the ensuing
Presidential campaign. The balance
sheet thus far stands decidedly in favor Of
the Republicans, and Blaine as yet stands
on the top round Of the political ladder
with his keen eye hopefully turned
towards the White House. We cannot
tell what strength other candidates may
develop hereafter, but to-day Mr.. Blaine
stands head and shoulders above them all
His broad statesman-like views, his in.
innate knowledge Of the practical needs
and working forces Of the Government,
his unimpeachable integrity, his social
genial nature, and his warm and heart
felt sympathies with the masses Of the
laboring people Of all ranks, colors and
nationalities, make his name tower Of
strength all over the country. Ispeak Of
this not as a particular partizan OF Mr..
Blaine, but as fact too plain to be over
looked or gainsayed. You may have n
better man, il so trot him out and let US
have man in whose hands all the indus
trial interests Of the people and Of the
country will be protected, and the wheels
OF prosperity be again set in motion.

An entertaining story comes from St.
Petersburg OF the efforts Of Russian
scientific commission to investigate the
mysteries of modern spiritualism. The
commission was appointed by the Society
Of Physical Science, and among It's menu
bers was certain Mr.. AksaEoi, an ardent
believer in phenomena, who brought from
America at his own expense two mediums
brothers named Petty, one II and the
other ID years old. Mediums, it would
seem, are scarce and dear commodity
in Russia. Mr.. Aksakof laid down the
proposition that there are four kinds OF
spiritual manifestations, namely; move
ment Of inanimate objects by the touch
OF the mediums hands, movement with
out such contact, answers TO questions by
signs given by such objects, and finally,
the apparition Of various parts Of the
human body, called naturalization. Well,
the commission began to investigate, and
all st. Petersburg waited the result with
bated breath. Would 1t be announced
as a scientific fact that the spirits OF
the dead revisit the glimpses Of
the moon7 Finally, the President Of
the commission, distinguished profess
sor Of chemistry, announced that an nc
count Of the investigation would be given
by him at public meeting-admiSsion
BY ticket, and the proceeds to go to the
relief Of the sufferers from the Herzego-
yinian insurrcction. Public curiosity
was at fever heat. Tickets sold us. high
MS twenty-five roubles apiece, and the
hall was crammed. Alas the professor
had no news from tho world Of spirits.
There had been six scanceS, he said, but
been produced, nor had anything super.
natural occurred. The tables would not
move; the guitars remained mute. One
OF the members had seized the hand Of
medium just as it was about to grasp, in
the darkness. n recalcitrant bali. And

that was all-no, there was about 81 200
in good hard materialized money as the
proceeds Of the meeting, which has no
doubt by this time fed many destitute
women and children; so some good came
out Of the affair. Mr.. Aksatof was not
satisfied. He sent 10 Bristol, England,
for another medium, named Mons, and
the commission agreed not to dissolve
until they had seen what Mons could do.

The Swedish SchOOlhOuse.

The government of Sweden has erect
ed in the Centennial grounds, situated
east of the annex to Memorial hall, O
Swedish schoolhouse. It is square
building, one story in height, is COM
posed of light wood, stained, the
boards forming its sides being about one
half foot in thickness, the ends extend
ing out several feet, and notched to fit
across, after the same plan used in the
construction of log house. Over each
of the doors and at the sides are gables,
giving to the building pleasing archi-
tectural finish. The doors are very
ornate. They are covered with nickel
plated nails few inches apart. STEP
ping within, we pass through small
entry into the schoolroom. The windows
of this are larger, admitting sufficiency
of light, and the matter of ventilation is
we'll looked after. Heat is supplied by
means of patent fireplace, which is
surrounded by a polished tile, which ex-
tends to the ceiling. The desks are fitted
to accommodate but one person, and are
similar to those in use in our own
schools, rs are also the chairs, except
that the latter have straight backs. The
walls are covered with maps, charts and
drawing cards, while one corner is oc
cupied by cabinet of natural curiosities
