Whilst ftapoloon w aasuriDp; the diplo matic corps which presented the annual address at the Tuilcrles that all was going on well, and that tranquillity reigned supreme, General Prim, Coude de Ktaes, was at the head of two regi ments of hnsears at Ocana and Aranjuez, raisin? the standard of rebellion against her mot CV tholic Majesty, Queen iHabclla II, and her minis ter, Marshal O'Donnell. You arc aware already of what had been going on for some time in the Teninsula. We will look at facts through two glasses. The first shall be the official glasses and the second those of truth. Let us begin with the oflicial glasses. AN OFFICIAL VIEW. Through these everything looks beautiful and serene. Trim is being abandoned by his follow ers, he Is suffering from a liver complaint of long fttanding, and trying to elude the troops of the Qnen, as the Clericals and Projrrossintas, In whoso name be has raised the standard of rebel lion, have lelt htm In the lurch. Those who have been foolharly enough to espouse his cause have fled in sudden panic and crossed the Portuguese frontier. It will not escape your notice that the Cabinet of Madrid, which affects the moat perfect tranquillity, is daily putting one province alter another in a state of niece, and placing person? under arrest; in fact, acting with all the violence of a Government at its last gasp. Even Madrid, which the French Mmitrur de clared devoted to tbe Queen, is in a state of siege. All these facts considerably diminish Our confidence in O'Donnell's despatches. It will he remembered that in 1854, at the time of the military insurrection which placed O'Donnell at the head of the ministry, the news from Madrid was equally favorable to the then existing Government; on tho 7th of July telegrams were forwarded to us wbich stated that the insurgents (i. e., O'Donnell) were halting nowhere, and were trying to gain tbe Portuguese frontier by way o Estramadura, and that they were being hotly pursued by the Royal troops. On the 20th of July Madrid made a pronunciamento in favor of O'Donnell. The same farce is being played all over again in 18GG, aud let us look at things through TUB GLASSES OP TRCTE. The scene now changes, according to private accounts of tho authenticity of which there cannot bo the slightest doubt. Barcelona, Valencia, Carraguna, and twenty o'her towns of equal importance are in a state of open revolt. Prim has completely beaten General Labala,who haa been sent in pursuit of him; the whole army Is more or less rihatl'ected, for not a day passes by without whole regiments going over to tho enemy. Madrid, it is expected, Jwill soon rise, but assuredly not in favor of O'Donnell. I have not the slightest doubt (and it is also the opinion of those arriving from Spalu) but that Prim has every chance of success. What is raoie alarming for Spain is that Prim, who is known to be very ambitious, is suspected (though appearances would lead one to believe that his only object is to displace O'Donnell) of "wishing to depose the Bourbons, and form an Iberian Union and constitutional monarchy in conjunction wita the House of Bragunza. and the present King of Portugal to be King. For It is evident that Europe is being tired of constant revolutions and wishes for peace, the inevitable consequence of the so-called principles of nation alities. This unitary movement seems to be a necessary stage road which is to lead us to the the goal so much desired, unioersal fraternity. I think the world is ready to make any sacrl flee that we may attain so grand a result. The movement in ISpaln is, I think, very siml lar to that which began in Italy a few years ago (minus the Pope, of course), and I should not be eurprifed if France required some compensation of tho new kingdom of Iberia when once consti tuted. In fact, the rrogressislas' movement would be unacceptable were its aim not to be the union of Portugal with Spain. The internal policy of Spain is execiable, and its external policy is that of the pirate without energy. However, as it is, the Spanish enjoy mor liberty of the subject than in France. Liberty of conscience alone Is for bidden by a Queen eaten up by superstition, and under the domination of a bigot like Hermana Patrocinio; but were a more liberal Covernraent established, this last vestige of the Inquisition would soon disappear. The abstention of the rrogressistas in the late election is a proof that something has been brewing, and that they have been waiting lor the word of command from Prim. Foreign powers cannot be suppos?d to be hostile to the House of Braganza. England has the greatest affection tor the King of Portugal, and will not regret the overthrow of a Govern ment which condemns those who sell the Bible to seven years' penal servitude. Italy would be delighted to boo the son-in-law of Victor E,n manuel ascend the throne of 8pain. .As regards France, there can be no doubt as to the step she will take, as her hatred of the Bourbons is well known. There is little doubt but that the fate of the Bourbons is scaled. According to last accounts, Malaga (i be country of the cele brated Matumos, condemned to the galleys for having embraced tho Protestant faith) is in open insurrection. In Madrid papers are being daily seized by the police. Tho Iberia, one of tho most liberal papers of the capital, no doubt in order to annoy O'Donnell, gives every day the life of some aint of the Catholic calendar. Espartero, who gave his allusion to the Pro Sressistas'1 programme in the lata election, has taken no part in the inurrect'!ou headed by Prim. The reusou is obvious, for Espartero Is much attached to the reigning dynasty of Isa bella II, und is only anxious for the overthrow ofO'Doumll. A STBAKGEQ IN PARIS , wo'ild uot for a moment suppose, whilo w.ilkinsf through the 6treets of the capital and readiu THE DAILY EVENING' WLEGBAIII.:--PHILADELPHIA, 1UESDAY, JANUAKY 30, 1866. tho papers In the cafes, that Prance is perhap in a moie unsettled state than Spain. Order pre. vails in the streets, it if true, but those who are acquainted with what is going' on in the con n ct'i of the Government are not Ignorant of the little harmony that there exists, and that we have many an O'Donnell and many Ejrim wait ing for an opportunity to substitute their private will for that of the head of the State. TUB OPENING OF TH FRSNCB CIIAMSKRS Is fixed for the 221 of January, but no fixed programme ha a yet been- decided on, for the question ip- with the Government, Shall we tighten or loosen the reins T Prince Napoleon, who to now again; in favor with bU Imperial cousin, is doing all he oan to urge the Emperor to adopt liberal measures. - As regard Napoleon HI, those around about him affirm that he has never been more taciturn. Are the reflections of the modern Sphynx similar to those which agi tated the mind of Charles the First, a year be fore he entered the Convent of MU Zulus, so ad mirably portrayed by Prescott tn his history of Philip IT If the present calm the precursor of a s,torra 7 Chi lo sa T However, Napoleon III seems, tor the present, to have quite given up any idea of annexing BELOIOST, AND LROPOLlI II tan reign quietly on the throne left him by his father. M. Van Praet, Minister of the Household ef the King of the Belgians, notified to the Em peror the accession of Leopold II to the throne., Ths Emperor and the ambassador exchanged words of sympatliy, verba volant srripla manent, it will be said; and the writings of Prince Napo. leon, when a prisoner at Ftanc, must be consi dered to be more sincere than the words of Na poleon III. However, as the Emperor has assured the Belgian Ambassador of his desire to see the integrity of Belgium maintamcd, and as he has done nothing to prove the contrary, we must believe, if any veracity still remains in him. He has enough to do with home matters, for three years only separate him from 1869, a date which seems no less important in the eyes of every one than 1852, when a new Presi dent of the Republic was to be elected. In 18G9, tbe elections lor the Corps Legislalif are to take place, and I prophc.-;y that no deputies favorable to the Government will be elected. It is, there fore, in 1809 that there will be a struggle be tween the power which will grant no liberties and the country, which 1.4 determined to wrench these by lorce, if refused. An election which has just taken place in the Department of the Orno proves that the inhabitants of the pro vinces are following the t HAP.cn of rnooBESH. For the Department of the Orne is an agri cultural one, nnd the farmers, for the most part very opulent, devote their attention to the breeding of cavalry horses an important point, for it would naturally lead us to infer that they would be ever desirous of keeping on good terms with the Government. The contrary is, how ever, the case, as the candidate of tho Ministry, M. de Mackan, will not, it is supposed, be re elected; and much tbe same thing is taking place in many of the Departments. In a constitutional country puch circumstances might fail to attract attention. Should the elec" tion of 18G9 prove unfavorable for ths present Government, the Ministry would change, the Whigs would succeed the Tories, and there would be an end of the matter; but In France, can one imagine the Constitution of the year VIII ca poned to such a conflict? It would be its death blow without fail. The year 18G9 has something fatalistic about it. Some hope in it, some fear it, it is indifferent to none; were it not for the exhibition of 1867, 1 think that the electo ral agitation would commence next year. The conviction is that the Government will not await 1869, but that it will give us another edi tion of the Coup oVElat of 1852. I cannot say that I share the general opinion, for the rea son that a similar attempt, with impunity, would be impossible within a space of eighteen years' time. It also must be taken into considera tion that the Prince Imperial will at that time be only fourteen years of age, and it is not by resistance that his father can expect to win the hearts of the people for his son. Napoleon III is now trying to sneak out of the alliance with II err von Bismarck and Victor Emmanuel, and is trying to be sweet with the House of Hapsburg and other conservative powers of Europe. TUB BOLE THOUGH OF NAPOLEON III, at present, is to get out of the Mexican scrape with as good grace as possible, in order to steer clear of the United States. The Emperor wished to retard the opening of the Chambers, in hopes that Marshal Bazalne might be able to send us news of some 'great victory over Juarez, wbich would have enabled the French to retire from Mexico with the honors of war. This Idea has been abandoned, as we hear nothing of the im portant victory. Napoleon III is now trying to calm the public spirit. Here is another proof of it. According to the terms of our convention of the 15th of September, the French troops will shortly quit Rome, leaving the Holy Father to the care and protection of his loving subjects. ITRY OF TIIE CLEBGY. In order to console the priests, the Govern ment has decided upon prosecuting the cele brated editor, La Crois, for publishing the Holy Scriptures, w itu notes by Proudhon. The pub lisher says, in his defense, that atheistical books, such as the "Life of Christ," by Straus, Lever bock, and others, have been allowed to be pub lished, and that Proudhon's Bible is much less offensive than the?e works. The Judge, how ever, informed him that ho had the right of prosecuting or of not prosecuting. This will give you an idea ol the state of things in France; and it U obvious t.;at the Government is desi rous ot not making an enemy of the clergy, who are mnch moved at the whiniugs of the Pope ou Christmas day aud on tbe first day of the year. The Pope loi'es no opportunity of complaining, and it may bo ttiid that resignation is not amongst his many virtues. It is indeed hard to see oneself slldinor down such an incline, when one measures with the eye the heights occupied by his predecessors. " THE COllINO SESSION will, no doubt, be of much interest, for we would seem to be on the eve, as it were, of taking stock. The C' ups Lcgislatifkua boon very animated lor t.ie U-1 month, aud from all I bear, the Government Is being picked to piecos without mercy, y.any are now, I fear, pre parir g tho way for a union with any party that might succeed the present Government. There is now a hnbbub lor the slightest cause possible. Ju. de Moiichy, who lias lately married Princess Anni Mui at, ccih u ot the Emp cror, haa bum named a men:beror the Imperial Commission f th thibitlon'of 1807. As the Duke does not (njoy'the reputation of great respectability, the nomination has given great offense. Eveiybody is discontented the civilian be cause the army is not reduced enough, and the soldier because It has been reduced at all. So we can sing with the song "There's nae luck about the house." Notwithstanding this general discontent, nothing can dampen the love of . ' AMUSEMENT OF THE FRENCH PEOPLE, or the rage for casinos; and tbe Diana ot them, the incomparable Theresa, now shares the favors of the public with the popular writer, limotee 2Wmm, whose daily articles la the Petit Journal delight the amusement-loving populace of Paris. Theresa is the representative of the low comic song, and Timotee, Trimm that of the nauseous literature of the day, which is entirely taken up with the sayings and doings of the fallen sex. But I wonld fain be silent on tho subject ; with a free people such literature would be a disgrace, and I have too much self-respect to wish to vie with the organs of our Government. I will not, however, close my epistle without giving you a piece of iews which will not be without inte-. rest. It has Just been discovered that herds of French swine are being attacked by that terrible malady known in our country under the name of lrichynes. It is a small worm which la said to multiply with wondrous rapidity. A morsel of meat thus affected causes instantaneous death, and whole villages have fallen victims from eat ing of the same. The Government has ordered that medical men shall be attached to alt tbe slaughter-houses of Paris. This may be of inte rest to your numerous readers, and I have thought it right to mention it. General Prim. General Prim, Lleutenant-General in the Span ish army, and Count of Reus bv the creation ot Queen Christina, was born in 1811, and educated to the profession of the army. In the war of the snccesslon he took the side of Queen Isa bella, and a iter ward of the Queen-mother Chris tina. Alter the flight of the latter he allied himself with the liberal party. In 1H42 a suspi cion fell upon him of complicity in the revolt ot Samgopsa, and he was compelled to Beck safety by flight into France, whence, however, he the n'xt j ear returned to take his seat in tho Cortes, to which he had been chosen. On the return of the Queen-mother he reaped the reward of his fidelity by receiving at her hands bis title of nobility, aud the honorary appointment of Gov ernor of Madrid. He was sent at the head of an expltionary force to suppress an outbreak in Cata lonia; but again came uuder the suspicion of the Government, and a second time was compelled to si ek rarefy by flight. When the Crimean war broke out be enured the Turkish service and won distinction, by his conduct of affairs in Silis tria. He was appointed in 1861 to command the Spanish contingent of the torce sent to Mexico bv tho triple alliance; but on discovering the ulterior designs of the French Emperor, with drew with his command Irom the expedition. Ho returned to Spain by way of the United States, and made a visit to tho Army of tho Potomac, then on the banks of tho Chlcka hominy. It will be remembered that in a letter written at that time, and subsequently in a me moir on the American aimv, of which a transla tion was published in New York, he expressed great admiration cf the military abilities of General McClcllan and of tho fortitude and en durance ot the army. THE SCENE OF OPERATIONS. 1 General Prim's friends aver that tho district Prim now occupies is a battle-field of his own choice. It is near Villarubia de los Oios that the rebel general possesses that country-house and those vast hunting-grounds which' were his favorite haunt and delight lor many months in the year. There is not a span of earth through out that wild and lonely Mancha that is not as familiar to him as the play-eround of his boy hood. There is not one of the hinds and boors of that dreary region that Is not as devoted to him as a lo?ier brother. If he choose to play hide an-1 seek with his enemies, or to carry on a harassing guerilla warfare against them, that is the very spot and those the elements that will enable him to hold on for months. South of the Toledo mountains a climate reigns that knows no winter, and the land which, with the favor of the inhabitant, would supply stores Just sutli cient lor him, would starve any other troops. The O'Donnell Revolt of 1854. SERIOUS REMINISCENCES. raris (Jan. 10) Correspondence of London Times. The Spanish Embassy here are calculated to puzzle rather than to enlighen. For three or lour days Piim has been in lull retreat. The first day he went to Aranjuez, not far from Ma drid; from Aranjuez to Guenca, due east, towards the point where the boundaries of Lower Aragon and Valencia meet, and which must be about seventy-eight miles from his Btarting point. The second day, still according to the official despatch, he started back at an acute angle to the southwest, ani reached Cludad Real in hot haste towards the Sierra Morena; that is, over eighty miles from Aranjuez; and the third day, retreating still more hurriedly, he is found at a considerable distance on his way to the Portuguese frontier. It may bo so, but it far exceeds in rapidity the celebrated march of Xenopbon, who knew something about retreats. As I have already observed, Prim may be a fugitive abandoned by bis men, as the oflicial despatches announce, but I have a vivid recol lection ol the revolt in 1854, headed by O'Don nell, who, like Prim, began with cavalry; and the coincidence ot the accounts given of the movement of the two is woudertully similar. In announcing O'Donnell's revolt the official despatch from Madrid stated thatGeneralDulce, O'Donnell's principal associate, was degraded lrom his rank aud honors; that martial law was proclaimed in Madrid, and a military commis sion, superseding the civil authorities, appointed ; that a column ot troops had sallied out to crush the rebels, w bo were posted at Alcala de Her rares, nar the capital; that the troops were enthusiastic tor the Government (of Sartorius), ani that his success was certain. On the 3d of July we heard from Madrid that the insurrection had utterly failed; that it was ex clusively military, and that the population took no part hatever in it. The same day the tele graph stated that an encounter had taken place between O'Donnell's bands and the troops; that the loss ot the former was very great; the garri son was faithful; Madrid was profoundly tran quil; tbe defeated rebels were returning to their allegiance; tho news from the provinces most satisfactory, and the remnant of the rebels were escaping townrds Toledo. The day following we were Informed that the troops aud rebels were fin front ol each other a few miles outside of Madrid; that the tight had not jet commenced, but that the success of the troops was beyond doubt. The next day we heard that tho Queen had re viewed tho troo.b in the Prado, and was received with unbounded enthuMa'm by the army and the people: that by royal decree Generals O'Don nell, Roa de Elano, and Marino were degraded from their otiices, titles, and decorations; that the tioojs had again attacked the rebels with ad vantaee; that tho latter were in full retreat; that the disloyal officers and men had returned to their allegiance; Madrid was profoundly tranquil, and the test ot the insurgents were seeking re time in the mountains of Toledo. The H'reuch Monittir confirmed the intelligence, and ob served that, if O'Donnell s -object had been to draw the troops from the capital witn a vif w to tho rising of tno population, it Lad failed, lor tne population coutiuued prolouudlv tranquil. tin thotiih of July it was announced from Madrid tbat the Rebels were at Aranluez, a column was about to march out to attack them, relntorecinenw were coming in to the Govern ment lrom all quarters, Madrid was perfectly tranquil, and that nowhere was there any sym pathy lor the traitors. Ou the 7th the MoniUiur aajn announced the tranquillity of Madrid; and the RuboH, more disheartened, were still lallini? back before the troopn, .. , . , ..,)' On thr 2d, tho Madrid. GateUe anno'unoed that the Quen hart conferred on the colors of the regiments ol Cocnca the cross ot St. Ferdinand, and that the genrais who had distinguished tnemselves tn the "glorious action of Vicalvaro" had been named Grand Crosses ot divers Orders, and the Governor of Madrid, at the same time, proclaimed that the' insurgents were in fall retreat, and the private soldiers who had been deceived by them were returning to their alle giance and asking pardon for their crime. On the 7th, Madrid despatches mention that the rebels were flying to Madrilsjo and Mora; that the royal troops were between Aranjuez and. Tillasequilla; that they must certainly beat the enemy should they come up with them before' Itaining the frontier, and that profound tranquill ity prevailed everywhere. On he :utb and 11th it was the same; "the country tranquil, the insurgents still flying or deserting, the troops pressing hard upon thorn, and General Serrano, who had joined the Rebels, unable to gain anv one to his cause." This con tinued till the 18th, when we alt at once heard from San Sebastian and Perpignnn that the gar rison of Barcelona and of San Sebastian had re volted, and that General Zabala (the present Minister of War, who is in hot pursuit ot Prim) had put himself at the head of the insntreclinn in the Baque provinces, and that the rising had become general. On the 20th a despatch acnon need that Madrid had risen, troops and people joining; tbat the 1'riine Minister, Sartorius (Count St. Louis), had fled; that the Ministry was dissolved; that Saragoesa was up; that Espartero was named chief ol the army of the insurgents, and that General Zabala had Joined him. Finally "last scene ot all, that ends this strange, eventful history" tbe Madrid telegraph of the 31st sent us word of the publication of a royal decree reinstating Generals O'Donnell, Serrano, Rob de Olano, Concha, Messina,! and Dulce in all the honors, titles, rank, and dignity from which they had been degraded a few days before, and annulling all the acta ol the Sartoriua Cabinet; that Esoar tero had entered Madrid in triumph, and that the Queen hud issued a mani'esto denouncing her late Ministers as calumniators, who had con cealed the truth trom her, naming Espartero President of the Council ot Ministers, and the late rebel O'Donnell and others td seats in the Cabinet. The present revolt has begun like that of O'Donnells; how It will terminate I do not venture to say. DYNASTIC A8SURANCES NECESSARY. The deputation of the Senate appointel to lay belore the House the assurance ot tne firm allo giauce of that body to the cause of the dynasty and of order was received by the Queen January 7. at 3 o'clock in the afternoon. Tho President, Marshal Serrano, Duquo de la Torre, presented the address, and was answered by her Majesty vtith a gracloas assurance of her grat tude. INSURANCE COMPANIES.
