THE KING OF SPAIN VERY ILL.
The Over Ambition and Hard Work Of the
Monarch the Cause.

LONDON, November 25.-King Alfonso
in the spring OF last year, and during four
weeks was ailing, but not q single day was
he i'll. In the summer of 1884 he took the
water OF Bateln, in the Casque province OF
Guipuzooa, with such complete sue
scess that he passed q good winter,
and resumed his life and habits, hunting,
shooting, riding, assisting at military man
oeuvers and reviews, and above all being
unceasing in his attention to State and
military affairs. This summer at one
time the Royal physicians thought OF
recommending His Majesty to take a
second cure at Bateln, but in the SANE way
that he had so calamity braved the cholera
in Madrid and Aranjuez, King Alfonso de-
clined to 60 to Bateln, when the King re-
turned to Madrid on account OF the Caro-
lines affair. He displayed a GOODNESS and
determination that went a great way to
vER A SERIOUS CONFLICT,
but he felt, it seems, deeply the painful and
cruel position in which Germany had un-
knowingly placed him. Just about the
same time he caught cold one day in Casa
de Campo, the royal residence outside OF
Madrid. where he was trying some young
horses with Duke Disexto, the Lord Cham
berlain. Since the middle of September
the King has suffered, nrst from Jne
return Of his old catarrhal fever
and then from indigestion and diarrh@a:
He was laid up for about three weeks, and
his physician, DR.. Camison. forbade him
presiding at the councilo of Ministers for that
period. King Alfonso, with his usual ten.
acity in the discharge OF his duties retarded
his recovery. and insisted upon receiving
his Ministers and other distinguished
persons in his room at the palace.
DR.. Camison successfully stopped his
catarrhal fever, and His Majesty speedily
became so convalescent as to preside at
CT -S~u.IIs. a rev weeks asv, w d.
pei all doubts as to his recovery, the King
drove ia a close carriage with Queen Chris
tine through the principal streets Of Mad
rid to the Atocha church and the Retro.
The King looked pale and a little thinner.
DR.. Camison and the royal surgeons then
said that King Alfonso's health inspired
them with no apprehension whatever, il
His Majesty would only consent to

Royal hunting seat OF Ell Pardo. near Mad.

take the advice OF his physicians.
