fame is that of having been the first to
hoist the standard of legitimate and

assembly in 1868, in the face of triumphant
revolution. His fidelity and capacity OBJ

Alfonsist party and in the proclamation of

In 1884 this Cabinet overthrown and
Castillo again formed Ministry. In 1885
this Ministry resigned on account of the
Kings intention to visit Valencia, where
cholera was prevailing, but the King gave

November, 1885, Senor Canovas Del Castillo
was compelled to resign on the question of
German occupancy of the Caroline islands,
and he was succeeded by Senor Sagasta,
who held the premiership until July, 1890,
when he resigned and Castillo again be-
