THE SPANISH FIAsCo.

The late attempt to foment a revolu-
luton in Spain has proved an igno-
minious failure. 1t appears not only
to have proceeded upon an entire mis-
conception Of the amount of popular
support to be depended on, but even to
have misused such opportunities and
resources as 1t had in most unsoldierly
and unstatesmanlike way. A more
complete fiasco can scarcely be i'm
agined, and the discovery of General
Villacampa, the leader of the insurrec.
tlonary movement, hiding In mill,
caps the climax of its righteousness.
The disaffeciion of the army or Of
the populace makes so slight show in
the matter, as compared with the
energy and strength displayed by the
Government, that it is scarcely appre-
ciable; and the necessary conclusion is
that the insurgents were deluded into
their venture by phenomenally foolish
leaders.
Considering that the Queen of Spain
Is little girl of six years of age, State
affairs just now seem to be remarkably
well managed and the throne safely
en,renched in the loyalty of her sub
jects. No higher compliment could
possibly be paid to the popularity of
The young widow having the royal in.
fant In charge. Whether the Queen
Regent can maintain her hold upon the
allegiance Of the people for fifteen
years longer IS, of course, conjectural
but at present no evidences are dis
cernible Of any deeply laid or well or
ganized plots against the reigning fam
ily.
