4 “EUROPE. THE ALABAMA CLAIMS, The American Minister’s Re- ception at Liverpool. PRIM AND~ GIRARDIN. Difficulty of Finding an Occupant for the Spanish Throne. ‘The Atlantic mail steamships Cimbria, from Ham- burg via Southampton, 23d ult., Captain Barenas; the Cuba, Cunard line, Captain Moodie, and the St. Laurent, Transatlantic Steamship line, Captain Bo- candi, arrived at this port yesterday, with mails and despatches up to the 24th ult. } The English papers devote a large amount of space to the banquet given to Reverdy Johnson, the American Minister to England, by the people of Liv- ‘@rpool, on the 22d ult, The Spanish journals state that Queen Isabella @uring the thirty-five years of her reign received '1,785,000,000 reals, or $89,500,000 in gold. Prince Mimboutaio, brotuer of the Tycoon, has left Marseilies on board one of the Imperigl Messageries steamers on nis return to Japan, The Empress of Russia, before leavitig Milan, ex- pressed to the syndic, through Count de Kisseleff, her thanks for the sympathetic welcome which she bad met with in that city. Her Majesty also for- warded a sum of 10,000 francs for the poor of the city. At Malaga the Junta has decréed the confiscation of the property of the Ministers who formed the last Cabinet of Queen Isabella and of some of their friends ‘rho occupted important positions. » Sgveral Protestant residents in Madrid have asked Teave to build a chapel for the exercise of their wor- bhip. ‘The Liderté having stated that a duel with pistols had been fought between Rochelort and Marfori, and that the former had his right collar bone broken, the Figaro announces that it immediately teie- graphed to Brussels for information and eceived the following reply:—“Nothing is Known here of what you mention, Rochefort is perfectly well; I saw him last evening at nine.” The foilowing notice appears in the Cologne Ga- zette, Whether it is an advertisement or a pleasantry 1s not easy to sa: My houxe in Madrid, No. 11 Calle de la Catedral, Dew, handsome aud well situated, is, in consequence of my departure, to be suid or let on advantageous Conditions. Immediate possession may be had. MAKFORI, Intendeut General and Major Domo. General Turr has just laid before the Chamber of Deputies, at Pesth, a motfon on the subject of the rer of Fiume, which he proposes to declare free, ike Hamburg, with an independent government. Should that project be adopted the /ransleithan Ministry would piace in that town an agent instead 0f 4 governor, and the intervention of the Hungarian @uthorities would extend only to common atfeirs. » The Epoque gives the following amecdote, which, judging by what we already know of the character of Don Ferdinand, appears to bear the stamp of truth and is worthy of belief. Three leaders of the Spanish revolutionary party called on the ex-King. The Prince said to them, “You wish to make aking of me? Know, then, that if I have already exchanged @ crown for a Panama hat, it is because the former headdress was a bore.” Then, pointing out of the window to some magnificent vineyards:— “See, I have turned vine grower. 1 make capital wine, which is far better than politics, which often turn sour.’? ‘The Gauiois of the 21st ult. publishes a letter from Marshal Serrano, addressed to its editors. He says:— “The revolution born at Cadi# proposed to leave to the country. acting in all its sovereignty, the choice of the government it should deem most worthy of itself; and the men who have put themselves at the head of that national movement are firmly Tesolved to have the programme respected which 1s inscribed on the revolutionary flag. For my own part I believe that a constitutional mon- archy, environed by all the liberties compatible with that form of government, might well be tire form the Most in harmony with the present times and with the spirit and particular circumstances of our country.’ A correspondent writing from Madrid, October 17, says that “a duel was fought in the bullring here be- tween a step-son of General Concha and a sub-Secre- tary of Stave. The gentlemen fought with the small sword and the Under Secretary received @ severe but I believe not dangerous wound in the arm. I have not heard what was the exact cause of the quarrel, but i believe that it had nothing whatever to do with politics.” ENGLAND. English Diplomacy and the Alabama Claims. . LONDON, Oct. 26, 186%. You have already nad by cable a full report of the grand banquet given to Minister Reverdy Johnson at Liverpool on Thursday evening, and from the Eng- lish journais despatched to you by this mail you will obtain a very clear idea of the English sentiment in regard to tue pacific speeches. made at the banquet, Let me, then, very briefly, describe to you the senti- ments of those Americans who were present at the dinner and saw, with unprejudiced eyes, the genu- fme feelings of the Liverpool Englishmen. The editor of the HERALD, judging the whole affair from @ higher standpoiat and with a wider view of inter- tional polity and policy, may not agree with these mericans in their conclusions, but nevertheless he will not refuse to allow their opinions to go upon record for what they are worth, In the @irst place at least mine-tenths of the Eng- lishmen present at the Liverpool banquet had been sympathisers with the Southern revels. Many of them had invested money in the ‘#acred cause” of disunion. Most of them had been losers by the triumph of the Union, From Mr. Gladstone to Mr. Laird these gentemen had sympathized with sec sion for more or less interested motives. They did not disguise their preferences. Of course, they cheered every allusion to peace, becanse peace means more commerce, and consequently more money for Engiand; but they did not cueer and looked grimly askance at cacn other when Mr. Johnson talked of tie perma manent triumph of the Awerioan government. Every man of them would own to-day, if he were placed In the witness box, that he believed the South still anxious t cape from the North and that be approved of this anxiety, Then why did these gentlemen meet Mivtster Jobn- | fon at a banquet? Fortwo reasons—one of which is | very clear aud the other very upp le to vome | persons in the United States. The frst reason is, policy—which everybody can understand. ‘The « | wishas to distinguish his mission by practical pei that Seoretary Seward has made # blunder as bad ‘as ‘hat in which he pred cted tne restoration of the Uuioa within ninety days and inuch more fatal in it results. Let any one read tho speeches of Secre- tary Staniey and Mimster Johnson and then say ‘Whether such speeches would have been deitvered by such men tf ‘he Aiabacua claims were about to be settled by the payment of the damaves. Joba Bull does not part with his money 30 eas.!y—SO spree to use Mr. Jobnson’s pitrase, No; we are appl ing @ setilement of the subject based upon vastly diverent premises, and, consequently, upon wrong Premises, { am authorized to ee 2 that there is any truth in the paragraph In the Datty News to the effect that a mixed com sion of Americaus and Englishmen i to 6it in London and investigate the Alabama claims; but i do not attach mich eredit to this deniai, I believe (hat the policy of Lord Stanley is to humbug the American Minister with professions of friendship, to deiude bim with offers which seem fair, but are reaily swinties, and to hoodwink him by means of hospitaiities, Which appear Dvcayn tes are cer* tauly partofadeep-laid diplomatic scheme, And, worse ian all, I believe that Lom Stanley has suc- ceeded in bts poucy, and that Mr, Reverdy Johuson, with ail his talents, learaing and tact, ts now @ blind American Saison in the hands of the English Philts- tues, It ts easy to see, even without the exclusive infor- mation Which the HBRALD always possesses, to what result the negotiations between Minis- ter Johnson and Lord Stanley are progressing. Some of the American claims for damages will be ailowed; some of the English claims tor dimages will be alowed, then &@ balance will be struck and the United States will be offered the few hundred pounds diifer- ence in their favor, and England will expect Ameri- cans to be satisfied with this “poor mau’s plaster’? to outraged patriotism and injured commerce, At this rate recogaitions of revolutionary factions and Violations of well establisned blockades will pay well. Joho Bull will actually mage money out of his own violations of mternational law. England sent forth privateers to prey upon our commerce, Hi up the ocean with our blazing ships, crippled Atmerican meri- time enterprise to an incalcuiable amount, sagcles the rebels with every necessary of war ata high profit, aud now turns about and by the payment of @ few pounds—not enough to cover the Value of chronomete:s stolen from one merchant vesseis— hopes to saive all wounds and cement an everlasting friendship with the Ainerican nation, It thia can be accomplished ali the fuisome tlatteries lavisiied upon Minister Johnson will not be Wasted and may profit- ably be increased and extended. But if it be accom- plished the Atherican people must have sadly changed the character which they displayed during the late civil war. However, Secreiary Seward is quite equal to such a in, ad witness the ‘I'rent ‘aifair, and the Minister from Maryland is a tool titted to his hand. I write as an American in England, subject to edi- torial correction, and professing only to state accu- rately the fooling among Americans here, But, can- didly, the speeches of Mr. Roebuck are much better criterions ol genuine aristocratio English sentiment than the speeches made to and at Minister Johnson, Mr. Roebuck declares that the United States is the cesspool of Bhrope, and Englishmen believe this. Mr. Roebuck declares that both North and South wish, even now, for &@ separation from each other, and Engiishmen hold this view generally and se- riously. On all sides, and irom Engushiuen in every Tank and condition of lif? among the governing classes, you hear the prediction that the contest between the North and South will be renewed, and that next time it will end m @ very different manuer, Ido not biame Englishmen for this, and £ admire them for the candor with which they utter wieir opinions; but Ldo blame them for attempting to deceive the American people by hypocritical ad- dresses and politic banquets to Minister Jounson, If they can ouiwit us in tis matter, if they can induce us to accept hundreds of pounds when we are enti- tied to millions, if they can quietly condone offences: waich between other nations aud under other cir- cumstances could only bave been wiped out by a bloody war, ten the reputation of Americans us a shrewd, intelligent peopio will have been lost for- ever, and Eng.and will certainly be entitled to the praise of naving got the best of a bargeinin which she was entirciy in the Ada A The administration of President Johnson ts near its close. The sands of Secretary Seward’s oMctal life are nearly run ont. Itis not fitting that so creat a queation aj that of tie Alabama cialins should be settled at the fagend of a Presidential term by a Socrei of State in whom the Americans have shown that they have no confidence, and by a Minis- ter who comes from a siave State and has 10 a= thies with tue next admimistration. General Grant and the soidiers who fought under him will probably have the control of tne Waited States goverument for the next four years at least. They know what England did against ‘the Union in the feld and in the southern coiminissariat. They have faced the Kugiish caunon loaded wit Engiish ammunition in the hands of rebel soldiers. They are the proper persons to deal with the Alabama claims and the settlement of these claims should be their honorable work. Surely an Executive fresh from the people and em- bodying ‘the popular will can treat ali such questions more safely, vigorously and satisfac- torily than the present rump of an administration, #o Weak that it could obtain no favor even in a that it retires to ob respect of jie Amer: tive, therefore, tue Alabama claims should be en- trasied. ‘The Anrerican Minister In Liverpool. From the London /imes of the 23d ultimo we make the following extracts, commenting on Mr. John- son’s late speech at Liverpool, which was publish@ in the HERALD on the 24th ultimo:— The visit of the American Minister to Liverpool has not only given occasion for @ display of mutual cour- tesies between the leading peopie of our ciel sea- port and the representative of a great commercial Dauon, but it has uliowed Mr. Reverdy Johnson to give assurances on important public matters Which wilh be received with geueral satis(ac- tion. The chief diderences between the mercan- tile communities of Liverpool and other Engiish ports arise from the close connection of that town With the business of the repubiic on whose prosperi- ty Its own prosperity mainly rests, Neariy four years have elapsed since the Alnerican war came to a close, aud during this period there bas been time for the passions aroused by that struggle to calm down, and for the domestic politics of the Union and its relations to this conntry to be contemplated more sedately on both sides. A new Minister does not necessarily ch@nge the nature of diplomatic oom- | munications, but it is anderstood that Mr. Johnson has received the powers, and that he has the will, to bring toan end ihe disputes that have arisen be- tween the two countries, ‘The wish ot Bugland, and eminently of the pre- sent government, which can look forward to no long tenure of oilice, is to settle all outstanding questions, and it may be said with truth that never ‘was there @ beter opportanity of cleartng off the ‘old scores in @ peaceable inanner, Mr. Johnson, in his repiy to the Liverpool Cor- poration, Was abe to say that the negotiations be- tween Lue two governments had made sausfactory progress, ‘They have gone so far,’’ ne said, “as to assure me, and to assure your government, that there ia nothing m the past, and that tuere can be nothing in the present whigh will disturb ‘ae peace Which now happily prevails." t the subjects of difference,” he continued, substantiaily settied om terms alike ii ach; and the third—I leave you to in that is—will soon be settled on terms eq wblo Mr. Jolinson is understyod to re.er vo the dis- ple about the island of San Juan ana tat concern- ing naturalized Americans as the un on which the two governmenis have artiveg ata substantial agrecment. tue second subject of discnssion between the two governments reiaies to the stacus of uatived of the United Kingdom who have become naturalized in the Cuited states. ‘The most tmportant subject in diapnte hotween the two countries, however, is the claim for damages on the park of those whose property has been destroyed by the Awbama.

Party spirit and feeling runs very high and will run stronger before the contest ia over. You may with @ certainty say that the liberaia will have an over- whelming majority in the next Parliament. Both par- ties have lost confidence in Disraell, althongh @ small minority believe him capable of good. But he is not. He sacrificed all principle to obtain and hold place. The people generally look upon him asa trickster who should not be trusted; and I bo- lieve the people to be right. Gladstone, on the other hand, has the conidence of his party and the respect of his opponents, We Irish belleve that, he means (if placed in power) to put all subjects of her Britannic Majesty on an equality in this por- tion of the United Kingdom. Of such a natare and strength is this feeling here that Jay and clerical of the liberal creed are putting forth greater efforts to secure his return than has been done in any previous election. Party spirit, as before stated, runs very high, In Dun- garvan we have a strong proof of this fact. Here two ministers of religion have besmeared themselves with iI language. 1a this instance itis rival candi- dates and not opposite parties that the reverend gentiemen have split on, The Very Rev. Father Hally, the parish priest, has taken up Lhe cudgels for Barry, the liberal tanatdate, and on the other hand the other reverend gentleman has espoused the cause of Matthews, liberal also, Barry was Crown prosecuting counsel agains: the Fenians during the special commission. He used very doubtfnl means to influence pubic opluion against those unfortunate patriots, Among other base assertions he salt ata preliminary heating before a bench of magistrates in the Castle “that he held in his hand proofs that they (the Fenians) were a society of communis's and socialists, whose aim and Intent was a division of the property of Ireland, and that they Intended to get possession of the property by massacring the owners, beginuing with the landed gentry and end- ing with the priests if they offered any opposition.’ He bas been challenged for the proofs of this assertion; but they were not forthcoming. Infact he had none. This wanton attack en the characters of those men, who were not in @ position to detend themselves, brought a well merited casti- gativo on Barry from the liberal press of Dublin, The wickedness of this act of Barry will follow him | for all time in this country. How @ liberal anda Catholic miniyier of religion can support this miaion of tyranny is beyond the comprehension of your cor- respondent.

Reception of Senor Olozaga at Madrid—The Form. of Government to the Ohoice of the People—Extinction of Religious Houses—A Colony for Prisoders—Probable Departure of the Papal Nunci . ie ties! MADRID, Oct. 21, 1868, ‘The arrival on Sunday of the eminent patriot, Sefior Salustiano Olozaga, was an event that was not allowed to pass without a popular demonstration in his honor, Ho had long been expected, but for various reasons, better known to himself, he had lingered in the French capital many days atter the other leading men in the revolution had made their triumphant -entry amid the -plaucitsof all Madrid, aud had received merited ‘awards im dehaif of a people struggling for hberty. Though not a military leader he had gained a place in the affections of the people by his noble qualities a3 8 man and his zeal and courage a8 a patriot. No man in Spain stands higher than Olozaga as an orator and statesman, and the people naturally looked forward with anxiety to the time when ‘he should. assume @ place in the new govern- ment and lend his aid in the direction of affairs. Although ‘every influence that could be honorably used was brought to bear upon him to Induce him to accept a high position in the government he steadily” 4 peremptorily declined all propositions, and he L now here only as a private citizen, ready to lend ncils to the authorities. In political faith Seep ei nrnee--et With @ decided lean- jug towards the democracy; but it Is not belteved that he is quite ready as yet to advocate the adoption of & republican form of government by the people of Spain. But whatever his views they will enjoy great weight in ths councils of the nation and will materially ald in directing affairs in this work. The weather on the day of his arrival was very unpropitious. A cold, dreary rain fell without in- termission during the entire day, which would have effectually ciilled the enthusiasm of @ less warm- hearted people than the Spantards. But in spite of the dismal surroundings quite a large assemblage of clubs, studenta, volunteers and citizens gen- erally gathered at the railway station and gave the eminent patriot an enthustastic and extremely flattering greeting. Then music, plenty of music, of course, and the wildest cheering aq the procession escorted the new arrival first to the House of Deputies, where he made a brief address, acknowledging the honors he had received and urging the people to remain united in carrying for- ward the great work they had so well begun, He asked them to have confidence in the provisional government, in whose hands they had en- trusted the conduct of affairs, He ex- pressed his entire confidence and faith in their ability, integrity and patriotism. The speech was received with tumultuous approval, and Olozaga was embraced by Prim Serrano, Tepeta, Rivero and others, to the greas pleasure of the crowd, Sub- sequently he proceeded to the Puerta del Sol and again addressed from the Gobernacion building an immense crowd, who patiently stood in the rain Hstening to his eloquent words. Hts speech was of the samé tenor as his first one, and clicited a like goueral approval, Then, with more muste and viras, the orator and the crowd separated and the last popular demonstration came to an end, ‘pe presence of Olozaya has already been felt tn thé somewhat irresolute councils of the nation. He did not hesitate te say to bis friends that the further existence of the Juntas in Madrid and throughout ES) ‘was annecessary and impolitic. The provi- sfonal government was in the exercise of ite ti mase fanctious, which embraced every power that had hitherto pertained to the Juntas, and he sug- | gested that the latter should be at once dissolved in order to remove day cause of embarrassment to the formér, His proposition was #0 sensibl and wise that the Junta here, conipo ol ; , Usage Aig a en it, and last night form: 1380) recomige: ail the Juntas im Spain to do map R Ree The resolutions were telegraphed to every Junta on the peninsula, and several promptly acquiesced tn ; the measure aud decreed @ dissolution.

The Provisional government has abos swept oat all the old Provisional Governors andappointed in their psoas liberals of advanced views. It will e the duty of the latter to everything for the coming election of the oiusiitutional Cortes—a duiy involving some Loy reaction'sts should creep into that body and crate division and trouble. ‘The Minister of Justicy gad Public Works—the well ‘known liberal, Antonio Romero Ortiz—has decreed the immediate extinodig of all the monasteries, con- vents, religious bonpenend 001 ations of both sexes that have beenjesgblished in Spain and the ad- jacent islands ‘Juy, 1887, when they were last Abolished.

The nuns who, by virtue of the present decree, can remain in these convents may leave them witenever they please by an order given at their re- quest by the civil Governor, the bishop of the digvese being duly informed thereof. ‘he nuns who took taeir vows before July 29, 1837, have a right to tileir pen- sion of five reais a day, but those who have taxea orders later have only rigutto their entrance foe. ‘The associations called Sisters of Charity. 3t.

The Cortes will doubtless follow it up by expetiiny all of them aud confisca‘ing their property. ‘Tne dil- ferent orders haye dost Spain a great deal of money. In some way or other in .ater years they managed to draw regular sums out of the treasury whica cer. tainiy did no service to tae State. In the matter of pensions they were until two years since a terrible burden on the treasury. When they were expelled in 1837 they Were allowed a pension of five reals a day to each person, and probably that sum would haye been paid out unt now to thousands had it not been discovered two years since tilat more than 10,000 pensions were being drawn by the superiors of the convents, &c., for persons wiio had been dead for years. The longevity of these pious people wes regarded as so: mething Ua+ usual, but no investigation was imitiated until two years i when the discovery 1 mention was Made. Under the new order of things very litle money from the State will be received by any re- ligious institution in Spain. A rather singular tuing may be remarked in all these decrees al ing the Chureh—that Cuba and Porto Rico are never wmen- tioned. Indeed, in no decree yet issued have ‘those islands been named, ‘The term “adjacent islands,’ do generally used, i8 always applied to the Balearic Jales in the Mediterranean and the Canaries, Cuba and Porto Rico have not as yet been brought under the operation of any law decreed. ‘They will recetve the attention of the Cortes, which will legislate Bpe-_ Ciaily for tueu. mi long expected circular from the Minister ot ii \e to the pp See Tk ve | y = Mie ket ame! i harrates the cabsey thar ea we wc TevuMugE wie ‘the ideas that Will control tie government and nation in the iuture.
