marrying the Austrian princess.
When Alphonso died Maria mourned

She was wrapped up in her children.
and though she did not love Alphonso
well enough to be jealous of him, she
loved him well enough to devote her
self entirely TO the little girls he left.
Immediately upon the death OF the
king. the liberal government wished TO
elect a president. and the conservatives
of the liberal constitutions party all
agreed hat IL was the only hope of
tranquility for poor Spain. But Sa-
gasta thought differently. Through his
influence the queen was chosen regent

of Spain. is now 40 years of age. She
was married in Madrid I'm November.
1873. and was then, as she is now, one
of the quietest royal ~personages in Eu-
rope.
To understand the life and character
of Maria Christina IT is necessary TO go
back TO her courtship. which was far
from being a happy one. Alphonso
XII. who was invited to the throne in
1874, was a monarch idolized by one
half of the subjects and destested b.
the other half. Senior Sagasta. then
the leading statesman OF Spain, loved
him and was influential in having him
put upon the throne to replace the lib
eral constitutional government. Ac-
cordingly A~lphonso XII. was pro-
claimed king in 1874. and almost i'm
mediately il became of the utmost
consequence that he should marry.
Sagasta and the people surrounding
him wished him TO TAX for a bride "a
woman from Germany or Austria, but
Alphonso had conceived a great at
tachment for Maria de las Mercedes.
who was the daughter of the Duke OF
Mcntpensier. The duke was unpopu-
lar in Spain and IL was undesirable
thai they should wed, but Alphonso's
deep love for Mercedes triumphed and
he led her TO the altar in January,
1873. Their life together was far more
than ideal for 1--WE months. but at
the close of that period Mercedes came
down with gastric fever and died, leav-
ing her husband inconsolable.
The Spanish people mourned deeply
for their beloved sovereign and al
lowed him to devote himself TO the
memory of his wife for a year, but at
the end Of that time they demanded
that he should marry again. and i'm
pressed by the Importance Of choosing
