Capiz, Nov. 20, 1868, I presume that no ‘one who has been so fortunate as to read the Spanish State papers, proclamations, orations and forms of the present day can have overlooked the eloquent allusions to “the initiation of the glorious revolution in the bay of Cadiz” and to the heroic marines who 80 bravely and s0 blood- lessly, it may be added, inaugurated the grand move- ment, The bay of Cadiz will undoubtedly furnish hereafter themes enough for the poetic and oratori- cal talent of Spain, whose gushing patriotism and liberal sentiments must flod vent in the musical vowel-ending verse and the stately and opaque prose. Here was seen the beginning of the revolu- tion whose end is as uncertain as anything on earth can be, Thns far it has been a good thing to dwell upon the event in this grand bay, because the drift of affairs has taken a direction likely to re- sult In giving increased liberty and happiness to the people. fo be sure the interests of the people weighed very little among the causes that induced the feeble leaders to strike the first blow. The peo- pie were an element that did not seem to enter into the probiem at a'l, aad it was only when they ob- tained arms and organized that the leaders dreamed that the nation was made up of anything else than themselves, the army and the navy. It has al- the army that carned on previous lutions, and why stould It not prove so this time? Therein was the mistake of Moutpenster, Serrano, Prim and company, and when they saw the people moving with @ clear design to look after their own interests all their nice litte schemes of personal aggrandizement: had to be changed, and, perhaps, entirely given up. Certainly from the day Prim entered Madrid the sell-formed government has grown weaker and less respected. What might have been done in the early days in establishing a new monarchy cannot be done now. These Andalusians are # sturdy race, bold, brave, full of resources and determined to keep whatever they gain of iberty in the present contest. They partake of none of those feeble and vasciliating qualities of the mummy- like inhabitants of Castile, where tobacco smoke, the ry ar of the region and con- stitutional laziness combine to debilitate the body and cneebie tue mind and prepare them for a Diersed government such as the ex-Queen gave them or that Moutpensier could oferthem, The Andaiu- sians and Catalans are made up oi much betterstult than those peop e avout the capital, and it is amon; these provinces that the Jove ef independence rm | liberty has deepest root.

ENGLAND. FROM OUR LONDON COARESPONDENT. The Results of the Parliamentary Elections. Lonpon, Dec 2, 1868. For a wonder the Daily Telegraph professes to have some exclusive information this morning, and Publishes it in a double leaded editorial. It is to the effect that at the interview which ts to take place at Windsor this morning between Mr. Disraeli and the Queen the Premier will place his resignation in the hands of her Majesty, and that afterwards, at a Cabinet council, he will make statement to his colleagues, informing them that the Queen has been gTaciously pleased to relieve them of the cares of ofmice. The Telegraph bolsters up this news by a number of specious arguments, going to show that the best thing Mr. Disraeli can do ts to retire before he is expelled by a Parilamentary vote of confidence. I am afraid, however, that the ‘vlegraph's wish is father to its news, and that, like most of the exclusive information in the London papers, the news is bogas. Nobody else has heard of the rumors of which the 7vlegraph speaks. At the Political clubs no gossip of the kind is current. Everywhere the double leaded editorial is laaghed at and ridiculed. But if by any chance it should Prove to be true, you will have the facts by tele- graph to-night, and it will then be found that this is only part ot the scheme to keep Gladstone out of the Premiership. To-day ail the elections, except those in Orkney, Shetiand and the two Scotch Universities, are over, aud we may fairly count up the killed and wounded. Two hundred and twenty-eight new members have been returned to Parliament—more than a third of the whole number of members, This, however, is about an average proportion io general elections. Avoat a score o1 these new members have been in former Farilaments, but not in the last, Fifty- Viree seats were taken away by the dis- franchiseraent acts passed by the ‘ast Parlia- ment. ibese were very equally divided, since the liberals lost twenty-seven and the conservatives twen IX. Fifty-one new seats were created by the Reform bill, of which the liberals have gained twenty-seven and the conservatives twenty-four. In the contesis over the old seats the liberals have ained sixty-four and the conservatives fifty-one, tis evident, then, that the liberals have increased their majority in the new Parliament by precisely fifteen votes—a result which tallies with the infor- mation Lent you long previous to the elections. ‘The predictions of a conservati batratum amu the newly enfranchited voters have also been real ized. Tie conservatives have carried the counties splendidly, and their triumphant gains in Lan- cushire, Whteh was thought to be the home of radi- calism, and their gain of one seat tn Westminster, which always returned radicals, go far to cofsole them for their general defeat. ‘Lhe radical portion of the libera party are terribly dissatistied with the results of the elections and vent thelr displeasure in no measured terms. They de- clare that the Hberal party io Parliament is weaker than ever before, because It has lost to brains more tuan it has gained in numbers, They assert that the new Pariiament will be more whig tian liberal, and loudly jament the loss of almost every leaving mera ber of decidediy progressive tendvncies, They say that Mr. Gladstone takes his tone from the men who are about him, and that he will new be surrounded by wen Who are too moderaie, too Siow, too well satisiied with the present state of things. ‘They fear tliat, after the disestablehment of the irish Church is accomplished, Parliament will sink back into apathy, content with its work, abd unwilling to grap- ple with other greatly needed reforms, They are astonished thatthe new workingmen’s constituen- cies have returned no workingmen to Parliament, and they mourn over Beales, WhO Was thought to be popular because he engineered the Hyde Park riots; over Bradiaugh, tno trreligious iconoclast; over Miale, tue opponent of the Kagiish Church.

Execution of Monti and Tognetti—Particulars of Their Crime and Sentence—Appointment of an Itatian Ecclesiastical Commissioner. ROME, Nov. 24, 1868, The expectations indulged in by the public that the Pope would not confirm the sentence of death on the two prisoners, Monti and Tognettl, were disap- pointed by the decapitation of those offenders this morning, at the early hour of seven, when it was hardly daylight enough for the executioner to per- form his lugubrious office. Your readers are already aware that the offence for which these men suffered was that of having blown up the Lerristori barracks on the 22d of October of last year, causing the death of twenty-two zouaves and wounding twelve others, of whom three eventually died, besides killing 8 man and his littte daughter who were casually passing the barracks. Monti was a foreman and Tognetti a working bricklayer, the former thirty-three years old and the latter twenty-two. Both entered into the pay of the Revolutionary Committee and exe- cuted their orders unscrupulously; but it has caused some surprise that, white they, who were mere in- struments, have paid with their lives for their whole- sale homicide, the directing heads of the conspiracy have been spared, as far as capital punishment goes, and have only incurred imprisonment, some for life and others for different periods, Twenty-one persons ‘were accused, but only eleven have been sentenced— the other ten having taken flight in good time. Monti was the man who actually lighted the mine, as he has amply confessed, so that there can be no doubt of nis guilt; Le? te passion blinds peo- ple’s judgment, for the liberals here, and in Italy especially, consider him @ murdered man, and say that he was no more culpable than the soldier who in time of war springs a mine and blows into the air an enemy's fort with all tne soldiers in it.

Ibeg leave to dissent from this conclusion as exaggerated and ill-founded, Such a charge might ‘be brought against some of the States of Europe, for France has become so powerful under the adminis- trative ability of the Emperor that she naturally awakens jealousy and distrust. Even in England, strange to say, similar sentiments prevail; for though Napoleon has manifested an unfaltering friendship toward her, and has, at the risk of his popularity at home, made untold concessions to her trade and com- merce, yet suspicion and apprehension continue to haant the English mind, and the slumbers of John Bull will never be sound till France shall fall into hands less skilful and vigorous, But why in the United States should prejudice or dislike of Napoleon III. be entertained? His career abounds in such extra- ordinary vieissitudes and displays so many com- manding traits of character and intelligence that he cannot to be an object of universal interest and admiration. The at fact, too, that he owes his elevation to the and ated choice of the French le must commend all the more to the sympathies of this country. Doubtless the out- oe) against him for his coup d'état of 1851 has malsied many honest minds; but what was the coup q@état after all? Simply a struggle for sovereign wer between the representative of the masses of france and a league of hostile factions, conaisting of socialists, monarchists, republicans and what not, View the: act, however, as we may, it was enthusi- astically endorsed by the entire nation; for the vote which elected Napoleon to the Presidency of ten years, and afterward to the empire, was some three millions greater than the vote which first made him Chief of the State. What nght have we, as republi- cans, to clamor jt the unanimous voice of the French nation? And if they pronounced the coup @état a necessary and patriotic act we are forced to admit they are better judges of their own affairs than any foreign nation. No more conclusive proof of the common sense of the French people in A proving the coup d’état need be cited than the uncontested fact of the ee prosperity of France since the di el The disorder and uncer- tainty that of that eve ad prevailed gave way to confidence and security, Under the marvellous sagacity and indomitable energy of Napoleon ili. the well of France has been develo; to an extent thi be; all comparison and far eclipses the most brilliant epochs of French history. ‘nelieu put anend tothe disorders of the feudal system and consolidated the French monarchy. japoleon 1. closed the crater of the fearful revolution of 189 and added volumes to the military glory of France. Less cruel than one and jess ambitious than the other, the modern Augustus has steadily devoted his whole time and genius to the welfare of all classes and the aggrandizement of the nation. Agriculture, manufactures, trade and commerce have all in turn been fostered, until the wealth of France has been augmented beyond all precedent. an such a ruler, then, be unpopular with the lower class, whose wages have increased ? or with the mid- die class, whose profits have swelled? or with the higher class, whose incomes have doubled? How nonsensical, therefore, are the rumors of rev- olution in France. It is true there exists in Part as in’all large towns, New York included, gangs worthless creatures who would overturn order any- where for the sake of pillage. lt was the ringlead- ers of this desperate cohort who lay ae red in the grotesque celebration over the pretended tomb of Baudin, one of the chieis of the red faction of 48. The character of these wortlies may be inferred from their immediate flight at sight ofthe police. True, also, there exist in Paris bands of discontented politicians of all factions, eac! hating the other, but all united in antipathy to the Emperor. These men would giadly plunge France into revolution to-morrow if they could arrive at power; but they are kept at bay, not more by the calm cow of the Emperor than by the public opinion which sustains him. is these gentiemen who agsail the government at intervals through their Tespective penny whistles, such as the Soleil, the Avenir, the Temps, &c., which figured recently tn the Baudin subscriptions, and were fined by the courts, These tty papers, the oa handful of isans, with @ circulation of a few hundreds, must not be confounded with the \ journals of Paris, such as the Sidcle, Const. tution: the P &e., as the Baudin affair, and eir dignity by keeping out of the criminal courts. Iwas struck, in a late visit to Paris, by the indignation of the middie and lower classes against these violent partisan prints, which provoke disor- der for their own ends, of the effect on business and the ruin of tho industrious. 1¢ must be evident, from this simple recital of facts, that the rediction of revo'ution in France is wholly un- founded. Hardly less absurd are the frequent reports of the Emperor’s ill health, which was never better at ae of his life. In short, these sensational are deliberately manufactured Tek a personafor various purposes. Some are up for effect on the stock exchanges of Yaiis and London, where large sums are made by a temporary fall, ‘tne Emperor is assassinated every year two or three times by these remorseless speculators. Not unfrequently Parisian corre- spondents of Engiish journals, desperate for news, fabricate ® conspiracy or announce & war with Prussia. All these inventions come flying over the cable, and fortnwith overspread the land. It is not from ill-will to the Emperor that our journals circu- Jate these canarda, but simply from a supposition of their truth. Your correspondent, “A Frenchman,” 1s, therefore, unjustified in regarding the publication of cablo fictions in our journals hs any indicatloa of sympathy with the “Bonemians” of Paris or of “anti-Napoleonic feeling.” To judge from public and private expressions of wonder at the marvels of his reign, it may be doubted ti any country could roduce @ tithe of the adwirers to be found here of Napoleon IlJ. ag the first statesman and greatest ruler of hia age.

Among the perso’ Who will soon occupy @ more or less important share of ap gn political atten- tion is Yukoob Beg, sovereign of Western Turkestan, close to the territory lately acquired by Kuasia, The Pagilish papers have already mentioned this sover- eign as “a most impor.ant personage.” He resides in Yarken city located in the centre of a feriie plain, well adapted for commerctal enterprise, but not turned to any account til the preseat. Until lately the Kuen-lun mountains were supposed to over an insurmountable barrier to Engiush enter- rise, and Kussia dil not push forward beyond the Frontiers of Yakoob beg's dominion. Kecentiy, how- ever, there has been the most lively competition carried on between these two European countries in order to secure the ascendancy in this portion of Turkestan, England was supposed to be tue favored nation until the occurrence of the events that have transpired within the last few days. A speciai agent has been sent to St. Petersburg with instructions to effect a treaty with Iussia, and thereby stop her de- sire for conquest in that quarter, and report states that the envoy is empowered to offer Kassia the commercial monopo! throughout Western Tur- kestan, The English commercial communiy naturally jealous, and itis not to be wondered at that phe press urges action on the part of the gov- ern@ent in order to prevent such # serious Liew being levelled at Britesh subercsta, WAVAL INTELLIGENCE. mandizig, sailed from Mazatian on the 13th ult., and was to touch a ail points to Panama and return to the North Pacdlc waters.

Jennetre— Marita Adyentures and Abandouments—The Pri- moner Held for the Crimo of Bigamy. ‘The case of James W. Jennette, blockade runner, ‘Sdventurer and discoverer, charged with having three wives, all of whom are living in New York ana to whom he has acted deceitfully and cruelly, prac- tising frauds without number upon them, as already reported in the Heraup, was up again yesterday at the Jefferson Market Police Court before Justice Dodge, At an early hour the room of the court in which the Were, held was fliled with a gather. ing, taken a3 @ whole, very respectable, consisting of many friends of the bereaved Indies and 1ew of the accused's, with here and there a lazy oillceholder and several of those peculiar reotyped faces—a living enigma—always tobe flitting about a police conrt. Besides the aMdavits, revealing the particulars of the accused's marriage with wife No, 2, and with an additional aMdavit from Dr. Price. the facts ell- cited were few. Yet the commendable despatch with which Judge Dodge alsposed of thi case, attempt to set aati the aMidavit of wife No. 2 med plea that it was outlawed under the statute of iimit- ation and the sturdy indifference of the prisoner made an interesting: afternoon. Ten minutes before the examination began Jen- netie was sent for and brought up from the prison below. He sat beside his counsel, with his back towards his wives. ‘The proceedings commenced with the annexed:— AFFIDAVIT OF ELIZA ANN M. BAKER, WIFE NO. 2, Eliza Ann M. Baker, being duly sworn, deposes that she resides in New York, and that she became personally acquainted with James W. Jennette in the month of Al it or September, 1864; that she had known of him rior thereto on account of his acquaintance with her father’s family and especially with him; that during the autumn of that year sald James made proposals to her to enter into a marriage contract with him, stating that his wife had died in Mobile, leaving him one daughter, sixteen years of hat he had large property in New York and in Cuba; that he was the owner of two vessels, all of which he promised to share with her, and that if she would marry him he would make her comtortadle and happy during his life; that under all these repre- seatations and the early acquaintance of him with her father and her own condition in life, being of small means, and believing that said Jennette would make her @ kind and affectionate husband, she co! sented to marry him on the 27th of Noveuber, 130: at the residence of Rev. Dr. Jos. H. Price, rector of St Stephen’s Protestant Episcopal church, No. 6: Sec- ond avenue, where the contract was dnly solemn- ized, and that they thereafter lived together as hus- band and wife for the space of sixteen or sevent:en montis, Further, that the satd James was a sea captain and a seafaring man, and that she treated him with all the kindoess and tender regard duo from a wife to a hasband, and gave him no cause to desert her; that she went to the Bermuia isiands with said James in the spring of 1316, oad leaving there herself to return to the city he pro- mised that he would join her immediately upon vhe completion of his business; that upon her arrival in New York she learnei that the said James had at the time of his marriage ity her a wife living, whom he had deserted. and from whom he had no lezal separation; therefore she alleges that on the 5th of July, 1847, he was married to Deborah 7. eae by the Rev. T. B, Stratton, of New York, and that they itvea vether ag husband and wife, and had several iidren, one of whom 18 Further, on learnt these Grit she ceased to live with him, and has not liv with him since such knowledge; that from information and belief subsequent to her marriage with said Jennette he on the sist of March, 1867, was married to one Lucy A. Smith, by the Rev. 8. D. Brown, New York, and that they iived together as husband and wife about one week, ail of which was unknown to her until along time subse- quent to her platen’. Stull further, that his repre- sentations of his being a widower and that he would make her happy and give hera good home were {a'se, that he knew them to be such at the time, and word only pretexts to enaide him to carry out his design of assaults upon her; that by these fraudulent and fey us oe were Bal pea ie Ln great er oo kite an in life and to her chi r in and before the community; that she is poor and dependent upon her friends for support, and has had no ep por irom Jennette since the time of his arrival in this city from Bermuda and her Knowledge of his previous marriage. And in view of all these facts she charges James W. Jennetie with feloniously practising fraud and deceit ou this Ri apa in procuring her marriage with him; also with assault upon her person and character with felonious intent, and aiso with bigamy, m marrying her while he had a wife living. aes this attention was given to the reading eo AFFIDAVIT OF GEORGE A. DOUGHERTY. Geo! A. Dougherty, being duly swora, deposes thai he knew the contents of the foregott, aMdavits; that he knows and for several ycars has kuown said Eliza Ano M, Baker; that be also knows James W. Jennette, named herein, and that the 27th of Neveu ber, 1364, on invitation of said Eliza, he was present at the marriage ceremony at the residence of Kev. Dr. J. H. Price, No. 62 Second avenue, and there saw and heard the marrige ceremony performed, making said Jennette and Baker husbaad and wie, &c.; that he was present during the whole time; that he was acquajnted with Eiiza previous to and siace such mi e, and also knew Jennette, and, jurther, that of his own knowledge he ‘Kuows that, they did lve together as husband and wife. The reading of these documenis giving the par- ticulars of Jennette’s second adventure in the matrimonial line was followed by the amMdavit of Dr. Price gi - a the int b as it appeared upon marriage records of the church; that it was performed by the request and con- sent of both parties, eye nig oa the marriage cers tificate Fe by him at the time, with his aMdavit. These facts seemed tosharpen the appelite of tue audience for ‘‘more;’’ their anxious, eager gaze being interpreted for more that would tend to the honor of the ladies, who, a3 they allege, have been 80 crueily wronged. At this juncture counsel for tbe accused moved to quash the affidavit of Mrs, Baker (wile No. 2), as it was outlawed by the ive of limitation; out this was not granted, the Court ee “that 16 ld accom! the other papers tw the bistrict Attorney’s,”” which remark produced evident satis- faction, as it presaged tue decision that the prisoucr be held for trial. Tuis sevtied, the Court asked the ladies to be seated back of the prisoner, and in rotation as thetr marria; occurred, his wives took seat irom the Judge. [tis no. often that such @ sight is presented in a court room, and when it is consider-d that during this (rial—one through which but very few men would paas without ex- hibiting some traces of weakness or excitement— dennette sat with his usual per eee x re and never looking back, his eyes in a vac: acting to all intents and ‘parpos were a thousand miles away, likeiy to occur very frequently. “He has nerve if all other manly attributes are lacking,” said one of the andience in & whisper, aud that assertion ved instant endorsement. Court (to prosecution)—is that your case? A. Yes, sir. To defence—Anything to submit? A. , wir, THR DECISION. Court—Well, I shall hold Mr. Jennette upon the charge of abandoninent; that he must pay Mrs, De- boraa J. Jennette twenty dollars per week, ior tie yinent of Which be must give aii in the sum of $600, and I shall aiso hold hin upon the charge of bigamy, for Which his bail to ap- pear before the Grand Jury is fixed at $10,000. ‘This dec ston, although it was auticipated, was re- ceided with great satisiaction.

THR PRISONER'S STATEMENT. When told that certain quesiious woud be asked him and that he could make any statement that he desired in relation to the charge that he was gulity of bigamy, he answered that hi name was Jawes W.
