     do not desire war, and are indisposed to it, 
     
     yet they half expect it. They expect it, not 
     
     trom the policy or intention of the Emperor, 
     
     bat from his want of poliey and p&rpose. Ye

     do not talk about war, is the advices which the

     John Brannan, 2 soldier af the 22nd Regi 
     
     ment, was killed lust evening about 8 o'clock, 
     
    
   
   
    
     by blows received trom some blunt instrument,

     a violent blow. She 
     
     gave the alarm, stating that her brether and 
     
     Shaushnessy were murdering him. 
     
     Inquest, she testitied that she believed they 
     
     killed him, for no one else was present. 
     
    
   
   
    
     Brannan only lived a few minutes and never | 
     
    
   
   
    
     spoke. The Jury found a verdict of Wilful 
     
     Murder against Driscoll and Shaughnessy, 
     
     The latter has been captured. The murder 
     
     kzs caused great excitement here. The 
     
    
   
   
    
     examination will take place before the Mayor |

     The ouly cause assigned for the deed, is the

     «The measure, which has the appearance of 
     
     a disarmament,’ the writer says, ‘is absolutely 
     
     insignificant in itself; it has no other merit 
     
     than jhat of permitting the Prussian Minister 
     
     tothrow on the estinases of the following

     A letter from Florenge in the Debats says 
     
     jpeople are beginning to look seriously on 
     
     | Mazzinian schemes, the more so as what is 
     
     | done in the dark always produces more or less 
     
     ‘fear. From time to time there appear pro- 
     
     | clamations, placards, the statutes of a secret 
     
     society; the people imagine that they are 
     
     | walking on ground mined by unkyown ene- 
     
     ‘mies. But it is uncertain igat the working 
     
     imen of Liguria assembled at Genoa have 
     
     adopted the Doveve -a Mazzinian paper—as 
     
     their organ, and resolved to pay jointly contri- 
     
     butions to be at the disposal of Nazzini tor 
     
     |the purpose of delivering Rome. The minis- 
     
     try will be obliged to take sumg steps on the 
     
     Roman question. As lon, as there are fopeigp 
     
     troops in Italy the Government will be ina 
     
     false position, and it will find it difficult to re-

     and bled to secure its possession to her and her 
     
     children, she to-day would have been Queen of 
     
     Spain, prosperous if not happy. Her father, 
     
     Ferdinand VIL, left her as a legacy to the 
     
     Liberal Party, According to the Salique Law, 
     
     which was then ij force in Spain, no woman 
     
     coulg ascend the throne of that country. Fer- 
     
     Gjnaud, at the instigation of his wife, an ambi- 
     
     tious and unprincipled woman, repealed that 
     
     law. When he died, in 1833, his daughter 
     
     Isabella, then a child of three yeare old, was 
     
     proclaimed Queen. Don Carlos, the late King’s 
     
     brother, the legitimate heir to the throne ac- 
     
     cording io the Saligue Law, disputed the sue- 
     
     cession. A civil war engued. The Carlists or 
     
     Legitimists, ag’ the adherents of Don Garlos 
     
     were caled, were, afjer a long struggle, finally 
     
     and effectually beaten. This Carlist Party | 
     
     was composed of the Jacobites ang the high 
     
     Tories of Spain. The Queen's party were the 
     
     Whigs or Liberals of that country. No sooner 
     
     was the civil war over than Christiana, the 
     
     Queen-mother, throwing off the mask which 
     
     she had been compelled to wear as long as her 
     
     daughter's throne wag in danger, discounten- 
     
     anced Liberal men and Liberal ideas by evezy 
     
     means in her power. The Liberals were natur- 
     
     ully very indignant at this treatjnen, and after 
     
     a time made the country too hot to hold her. 
     
     She fled to France, but did not remain there 
     
    
   
   
    
     leaders who opposed her out of the Kingdom. 
     
     Her prime minister was General Narvaez. He 
     
     was a brave but thoroughly unsgrupulous man. 
     
     When he was g ing, being exhorted 0 forgive 
     
     his enemies, he is 1eported to have replied, (1 
     
     have none, I have shot themall.’” It was not to 
     
     be expected that a péoyile,with the least spark of 
     
     spirit remaining, would long or patiently bear 
     
     the rule of an abandoned woman with a shoot- 
     
     ing first iinigier. The Spyniards made many 
     
     ineffectual attempts to shake them both off, 
     
     and, after many failures, at last’ succeeded in 
     
     1854. The Queeu-mother wus again com- 
     
     pelled to seek an asylum in Heange. Since 
     
     then the country has been comparatively quiet: 
     
     for Spain, There have been insurrections aud 
     
     disturbances without number, but none of them 
     
     were productive of any very formidable results. 
     
     In (866, General Prim headed #2 ineffectual 
     
     rising Which resulted in bis banishment. We 
     
     may remark in passing, that one very ugly fea- 
     
     ture of modern Spanish polities is that all the 
     
     leading politicians have.been and are soldiers. 
     
     Civilians seem to be of very little account in 
     
     Spuin as states:aen. The road to poligical in- , 
     
     fluence in that country lies through tae army.

     evough, but we rear the proposed changes are 
     
     of too sweeping atnature. Free institutions 
     
     require a free and an educated people to work 
     
     them properly. In the hands of those who do 
     
     not know how to use them, they are frequent- 
     
     ly productive of as much harm as good. There 
     
     may, howeyer, be much truth inthe view taken 
     
     by our Ayerican cousins in this matter. They 
     
     consider that the best, and indeed, the ouly 
     
     way to educate a people up to freedom, is to 
     
     muke them free. They will doubtless, make 
     
     many, and fearful blunders, but the suffering 
     
     which their perpetration causes, is a necessary 
     
     part of the discipline of their political educa- 
     
     tion. This is very mach like saying, that the 
     
     best way to make g man expert in the use of a 
     
     |tool, is to place it in his hangs aud yake him

     By the Herald of Wednesday last, we sep that 
     
     ¢he New York, London, and Newfoundland 
     
     | Telegraph Company will not lay a new cable 
     
     | wcross the straits, and keep the Island telegraph 
     
     line in working order, without a subsy of 
     
     £900 currency per annum. This isa very 
     
     considerakle sym, and Mr. Hensley did not 
     
    
   
   
    
     jconaider himself at liberty to close with the 
     
     |Company’s proposal, without first consulting 
     
     Mesgrs 
     
     Hensley & Davies were, we understand, author- 
     
    
   
   
    
     his colleagues in the Government. 
     
    
   
   
    
     iged to offer gn aunual subsidy of £600 cur- 
     
     | reucy. Phis, the Company would not accept, 
     
     | They have, 
     
     losers by the Island telegraph. 
     
    
   
   
    
     it seems, been very considerable 
     
     It cannot be 
     
     expected that any company will keep up our 
     
     | telegraphic communications without making at 
     
     | the very least,a fair profit out of the capital in- 
     
     jvested. If it can be shown that our telegraph 
     
     lines cannot be properly worked without the 
     
     subsidy, we are decidedly of opinion that the 
     
    
   
   
    
     | Subsidy, 
     
    
   
   
    
       
     
    
   
   
    
     large as itis, should be cheerfully 
     
     paid by the people of the Island. It is foolish 
     
     in the extreme, to expect that any community 
     
     jean in these days, prosner as it ought, without 
     
     telegraphic communication with the rest of the 
     
    
   
   
    
     world, The disadvantages connected with our 
     
    
   
   
    
     timed parsimony. It it is believed that the 
     
     New York, London and Newfoundland Tele.| 
     
     graph Company wish to take advantage of| 
     
     our necessities, and are endeavoring to 
     
     us pay tgo high a price for the telegraphic 
     
     accommodation which they can give us, can we | 
     
     not manage the matter among ourselves ? | 
     
     What isto hinder the moneyed men of the | 
     
     Isjand forming themselves into a company, | 
     
     and taking this business of the telegrapi into | 
     
     their own hands? We see that a local compayy | 
     
     has kept up steam communication with the, 
     
     mainland as suegegsfully og any foreign com.) 
     
     pany could possibly have done ; what is to hin-| 
     
     der the same being done with respect to tele. 
     
     graphic communication? The Government, it| 
     
     it is compelled to subsidize any company would 
     
     much rather subsidize a local company than 
     
     any other. The affairs of a local company, 
     
     too, would be much better managed than those 
     
     of a foreizn gue, Qne thing js certain, and 
     
     that is, that the Jsland cannot long remain 
     
     without telegraphic communication with the 
     
     rest of the world, whether the business be 
     
     undertaken by the Islanders themselves, or by 
     
     the enterprising men of g forgizn country.

     | {fall failed—as, he beheved, it was generally ad- 
     
     | mitted it had done—to prove a suitable place for 
     
     public speaking and discussions, the failure was 
     
     entirely attributable to the miscoustruction of the 
     
     Hall, especiaily as reepecting the reof or ceiling,

     its coustruction, the worthy Councillor then ap- | 
     
     ealed to the knowledge of His Loner the Re- | 
     
     corder, and His Worship the Mayor; each of 
     
     whou, in angwer to bis appeal, made a statement 
     
     tully corroborative of all that he had atated with | 
     
     reference to the question ; that of His Worship 
     
     the Mayor was to the effect “ that the Couneil | 
     
     Was unauimous in its decision that the Hall, when | 
     
     tinjshed, should be fimshed asa linll for public 
     
     weotinge, and net for additional market accom 
     
     wedation, although it was not intended imme- 
     
     diately to finish it for any purpose. Some gentle- 
     
     wen ot the Board, indeed, remarked that, before 
     
     many years should elapse, it would be required 
     
     for additional market accommodation ; but others. 
     
     thought that when additional market accommo- 
     
     dation should be required, it coyld best be ob- 
     
     tained by extending the centre segtivu ablut 25 
     
     feet Suuth-east and South west. 
     
    
   
   
    
     Councillor MeNeill eaid, that although the Hall 
     
     was usually called the Market Hall, ihe name of 
     
     City Hall had been given to it by a regular Reso- 
     
     lution ef the Coyneil ; and that name, he thought, | 
     
     clearly enough indicated the purpeses for which 
     
     it wae designed. It had, bowever, by publie cou- 
     
     seut, been condemned as alinost wholly useless for | 
     
     the purposes of Public Meetings; and be himeelf. 
     
     had proved it to be 80, even on the occasion when | 
     
     he auctioned “ the cake” in it for the St. Dun-| 
     
     stan’s College demonstration ; for, on that ecea- 
     
     sion, the echoes of his own vyice from different 
     
     quarters of the Hall, were such as if individuals 
     
     on ail sides of him, around its area, were amusing | 
     
     themselves by, ay the boys say, “ making fuu of | 
     
     him.” He would, in fact, for any effective pur- 
     
     poss, much rather address an audience of thtee | 
     
     or four hundred persons in a respectable cellar, 
     
     than in the City Hall. The werthy Councilor 
     
     couclided Yy sayiig the syuncy it was opened for |

     pamed, on the grounds that, in a year or two, the, 
     
     whole of the building would be required for Mar-
