Tli Duko le Monipnitler, The following manifesto has been addressed to iho HpBtilh Provisional Government by Don ' Ilenrl de lioiitbon, tbe Puke of Seville, brother to ibe King Consort of Spmu. Tue writer, alter a violent diatribe against the Duke do Moutpen sitr, wboro he declares to bo mean, avaricious, unRrateul, ambitious, and devoid of talent or elevation of character, goes onto say: I, wbo sufiered lor more thin twenty two Tears political perff onions Instigated by Louis Pmlippe; who, without being Kuiity of any crime, tm baaisht d trnra my na'.ive country, am indignant ai a Spaniard and member of the Liberal party, at tbe privileges, as unialr as it is anti-patriotic, enjoyed by MontpenMer. In the name of Justice, I, wbo have newt desired the tb rone coveted by the lntrtKUtrto whom I refer, wbo would not leniean myself by oearin his title of Pretender, for my aspirations are tnoie of an honest citizen wbo knows the great value of self-denial; I, who look upon the glory of Wa hlngton as greater and more worthy than that of 0-tar, apply to the provisional government of Spain fur permicsioa to return to nay ua ive land, and to apain occupy, humbly, as I have al wavs been accuhionied to live, tny aparimeut at Madrid, which contains tbe Intle i possess. Tne ashe4 of my patents, tco-'e of one of my children, and of my wile, are in Spain: and these mortal re mains, so dear to me, call me near tbem. I do not, consequently, require a crowu like Moiit peinf r, who, in Hie enjoyment of his numerous millions, mitrbt live at bis ease and be silent. I as-k lor a ray of the sunshine of my beloved country, and that na'.ive air which every citizen wbo has committed no crime has a right to breathe.

Simple exhaustion rather than nny public or corporate procedure seems at length to bave brought about an armed suspension of knavery. The triumvirate retains the corporate lands and its uncontrolled power of flooding the market with Erie shares, but tue temptation to abuse this latter prtvihge is diminished by tbe circomstauoe that there is no one to buy. Meanwhile each party wal'.s longingly for tho coming sessions ot the Hew York and New Jersey Stale Legislatures, in the certainty, as our correspondent seems justified by facts In patting it, that they can "rusu to one or the other body, and, by judicious brioury, get laws pHSst d sanctioning any villany." This is a very extraordinary state of hlngs to have prevailed in the second coiumerr al capi ta of the world, aud it is not uiadr oetter by tbe just wrath of neutral Amencai ( at such revelations. Mew York, to cloar it.ilf of the guilt of connivance, outiht to have acted long aco. A sctmdal like this is ouly lostered oy indicnant discourses about tbe scale ol these diiectonal tnormi'u-8, accompanied by avowal ol aJratrntion for the "Napoleon c genius" they evince. Tho persons fir.st responsible for tue continuance of snch doiuers are t tie sharehold ers of tbe Kile Kaiiwuy themselves. It is hard to believe that the honest shareholders are uot still a majniity ot the rompauy. They are the people wbo chiefly suffer by tricks of Bnnuclng, ud they ought to make it their business to con vert themselves into a dominant malority. In the second place, tbe city and Stale of New York hie answerable lor acts which have turned their H ock Exchange into a common tailing bouse, and which bave made the impartiality of their courts more than suspected. If neither tbe body of Fne saireholoer nor the New fork public care to vindicate their own reputation, it roov become a question whether the commercial tindies of Europe nntUt not feel conapellel, wueu a company cannot or will not repudnte nch conduct of its manasers, to hold It equally gnilty Willi theui and t mark their sense of Its uutrustworttiiuess by cxcludiu;; U from their block exchanges. Serious Accident In u nine. The Kntllbh papers of tbe SOlti ult. coutaln iho ioJlowlug account of an accident of an alarming character which occurred a few days at'o .ia an ironstone colliery iu Shropshire. About a dozen men were employed, when the pus in tLe workiues tired and all ot them were injured. It 1" hoped, however, they will recover. Tbe Weliiner'on Journal says: "Tbe part ot the mine where tbe igi.itiou occurred was a Dew opening, at a couiderab'o distance, aui in an opposite direction from the other work iues, in which, also, there wer men employed at tbe eame time. In the part where the accident happened there were usually three m-u set to holing:" but in this Instance, to expedite the work, there were ten men aud a youth eniraged at this sp t. Tbe company had with them a pafety lamp, but we are uot certain whether the lamp was burning at tbe time or not. It would seem that there were cindles in use. Certain it the gas took lira with a terrible effect. Tbe men employed some 600 to 6u:l yards off. in another part of tbe mine, felt tho sudden motion and draw on the air arounl tbm: but tbe vie ins enveloped In the burning clement were seriously Injured. 8ix of tbem are married men. The eleven are all more or less injured, some of them seriously.

Rome correspondence (Dec. 22) says: "To b or not to be" guillotined Is still the qii'-stiou with ibecoodcmued prisoners Ajanl and Lizzi; but as ibey bave appealed asaiust their sen tence, and the Consult Tribunal will not give final judgment until after the fcpiph my, there is time lor diplomatic influence to be brought to bear opon the more mprclful propensities of tbe Supreme Pontiff in their behalf. I learn from the btst sources that this time the sentence of death will not be carried out, not from auy Inrteasc of clemency on the part of tbe ecclesi astical Government, which woutd have wil lingly dealt a tecoud deathblow at Its enemies, sheltered as it is Irom all consequences behind tbe trsrls of Krtnch protection, but because the French Ambassudor hits received Instructions to interpose bis veto, in order to avoid the tre mendous uproar which such a snnemniry bravado would inevitably excite throughout tbe kingdom of Italv.

A more sr-rlons matter than clandestine cir culars is tue proposition of the Italian par liamentary committee in discussing tbe budget to suspend further payment of tae PontHcal dividends so recently accepted by the Iinliau Coverument. If earned into effect, this measure may bring about a hitch with France, wbo considers beroelf to be in duty bouud to guarantee the Italian obligations established by the September couveution, although she does not fulQI her own, viz , that of evacuating the Pontifical territory. TUE ALASKA FRA UD S. llie ItevoIatloiiJt That Are to be Made Wliof ell Jlvlm to the Jvxlru 2,000.O00. The yesteiday's Washington correspondence of ihe N. Y. tttrad says: I state ! in one of my despatches a few tiavs aso tli.it Mr. Mar.iu, who pro'esses to know all about toe Alaska bribery business was iuthis c'uy, and prepared to give bis testimony. I repeat the stntement low. lie ib here, aud it the Committee on Public Kxpeuditures desire to pump biui, there is no otstruciion to (he giatidcatiou of their desire. Martin boasts that be haj some very damaging mtormatiou that he can furnish the ctiumiticc, and declures that he derived his knowledge ol the busiu-ss Irom a certain genMe man lormerly connected with the State De partment, whoe duties sometimes required him to translate documents from foreign luu - f;UHC(sinto Knglisb. This gentleman, it is ul eged, bud opportunities of peruslug records and papers in tne aepartmcui uot accession to everybody, and being an observing man, capa ble of putting stray facts in juxtaposition and bnding results, his suspicious were awakened in relation to tne Alaska job, and his curiosity led him to a private Inveuigition. Tho chain of evidence he thus formed he considers highly satiBtactoiy, and when he bad what he con sidered undoubted evidence of the transactions jelened to he called on the Secretary of 8tate and warned biru ot the consequences 01 an exposure ard bad 11 is inionnaiion poou- pooueo Dy mat illustrious aipiomut. ii iouk after, however, the gentleman was offered 1 stcret mission to Merico to ascertain lor eur Government what kind of a government the people of Mexico deired. I give the ubove and what follows wuoout pretenuing 10 state t.iat it is even probably true, but simply as the state ment of a man wbo represents that hi kuows what be is about, aud us something tor the investigating committee to work uoon. Ac- cordihg' to Mania's statement, which i-i at least worthy ot being sitied, wune the Aia-aa treaty was being negotiated, JSewitrd ev pressed to Rarcn Stoeckl doubts as to t! e chances of getting tbe matter through Congress and advised the latter to do sotnutbing to oil the wheels of legislative machinery. In anangiucr the price to be paid lor the Territory tne means were provided wherewith to furnish tbe oil. Tbac. 8ievens was the man seb-cte l to put the mutter through, and it Is alleged the linpu- rial agent visited ibe Great Commoner, and in bis blandest manner laid tue mut'er open, assuring bim that a bait minion ot aoiiars would be regarded a a mere bagatelle if his influence could be t ecu red. The good old man refused any recompense, but put bis shoulder to tiie wheel with a will. A distinguished K.isiem member was found to tuke charge of the uittter, and a bill was prepired. At this stage of tbe pame another Eastern member, who his a mutation ror smelling goou things, seemej tne game, lie had a small claim on the Russian Government that he was prosecuting for an Kastein brm who furnished the Uussian bear with tire arms amounting to $800,1)00. lie at ODce saw the hist Eastern member and let him know that be was fully posted. Nunbeis ouh and two then Dut their heads together and tettleil that number two should In roduce a resolution to make the deduction trutn the Alaska purchase money iu favor of his clients, but should subside when number one raised a certain point of order. Well, the appropriation was bnaily made, and the following are repre sented as some tue items of expenditure: -To an ex-public printer, $5000; to a near relative ot the Great Commoner. $40100; to au ex-Coni-mls'ioner of Pennons, $10,000; to the Washing ton correspondent of a flew York radical morning paper. $5000 : to a Washington eone-pendent, who is on the list as belonging to the Herald, but who is known to be attached to a C.ncinnati paper, $10,000; to a conservative morning paper in Baltimore, $2i),0(i0: to the Washington special correspondent of tbe same paper, f000; 10 a Chicago Democratic mormn.' paper, $6000; to a representative ot the Jones lauiily. $10. 00; to au Eastern Senator who ha I influence with a pronilufiit journal, $20,000; and tbe Eastern member before alluded to as No. 1, $260,000: to Easiern member No. 2 $150,000. Tne diplomatic chief fell heir to $200,000, and tbe great king of the New Vork lobby, who had tbe general management ot the job, received the modtst Utile sum of $r00,ooo. Mtrtiu pretends tbat there Is evidence ready for the commt'tee to show that an acquaintance who chanced to call on Baron S.oecKl booo after the appropiiatiou was made saw lviug on the Miuister'sdotk a draft lor $.5,000,000, which the Baron handed blm to loon at. Tho geniloraan Hfked what it was for, and wus told that it was the payment for Alaska. "Hut this," said he, "is only lor $5,0o0,00. I thought the United States wf re to pay 1 7 200,000." Tbe U iron answered, "No, air; tbat Is bit we asked for tn? Territory. You Yankees got all the rest." Tbere Is also proof tbat Mr. Beward receive 1 Irom Boston, about the 4th of October, a letter, of which the following is copy : - My Dear Sir: It apjeart tbat iim oa connected wlil ihe Kuisiaa Legailou ha bto telli n taJueoul oftrfeool, and lam threatened w 4h hlacknal Inr. I thought at first lo submit to 1 he exigency If It was pot drawn loo itroni, a la tbese matters Ibe leant talk lbs better, I UiooRbt. however, M apprise you of the foot. Wbal do you adviser "This letter bore the signature of an Eastern member of Congress. It wss Inclosed by the diplomatic chief In an envelope and adlresjed to Mr. llodlsoo, of the Russian Legation, to gether with tbe note, asking, "What does this mean?" This is a brief summary of what Mar tin expresses himself willing to communicate. It seems an extraordinary story throughout. DAMA GING EXP OSUEES. The Operation of Lnnd jrlonopollsits) In Coufrea, Mr. Clarke, of Kansas, mode a damaging exposition in Ibe House, on Wednesday, of the abuses of the land-grants ol Congress to corpo ration. Reviewing the public land system of the nileJ States, he said the Pre-emption tot ot 1841 laid bonds on the future. Toe acts ot 1863-64 gave stability to tho homestead policy and corrected abuses. Since the war closed Coneress baspla ed 60,000,000 acres of public lands in Rebel Htates nuder that system, from 1802 to Juue 30. IPC?, entries under various B2ts have covered 7,000,000 ncres, a totnl of 67,000 farms of ItiO acres. Within the late insurrec tiooary (rates, in less than two years 225.840 acres have been tiispo-ed of under homestead entries. Alluding to the advantages of that systen, Mr. Clarke said I bat 30,000,0(10 acres of the public domain are still 111 the hands of specula tors. In addition Goveruni',nt has donated to Pacific railroads 124,000,000 acres; other rail toads, 67.000,000 acres. To the otves. and already selected as swamp land, over (10,000,000 acres. Nine miil'on six hundred thousand seres bave been granied tbe Stales tor agricul tural colleges which have or will be sold by srnp, and thus pass iuto the h inds of specu lators. - An enorinons nggte?ate of at least 225,000,000 acres is iu the bands ot railroads and other railroad monopolies Properly settled, 15 would yield 1,750 000 tarms of 160 acres. The public domatu Is a trust we hold tor the world's poor, and no sound reason exists why it should be thus despoiled. Mr. Clarke denounced the practice of barter ing awav bv the Senate, under the shallow p.e- tense of exercising a treaty making power, ot vest tracts ot laud occupied by ludiaus, and said it bad been done in respect of K.msas lane's and others in the pcerecy of Executive ses s ion at the o'.ber end of the Capitol. The control of the publ'C lands Is delegated to Con snss by express provision of Congress. One fortieth o( tha aiea ol Kansas bus bcn c?ded to 11 few corporations and individuals, by treaty. If other pending treaties are rtttitied, one-ninth of the State will be similsily absoraed. Oue nvllion seven hundred and seventy one tlio.i snnd three hundted and titiy acres tiavn thus been granted to a tew individuals, three ot whom obtained about eight hundred thoasand acres. He presetted authentic tables showing the status ot Ibe O-age lauds and tho Cherokee neutral lands, and said It tbe pending O-a-te tieaty shall be confirmed bv the Senate, 8,003.202 acres, enough to make 60,200 homes'.eads of Pi J acre's each, and sustnin a population ot 1,000,000, will be swallowed up by a monopoly. lie alluded to tbe injustice thus meditated asain-.t Kansas and declared that this gigantic attempt to nlundtr, along with schemes already cou Bmnmated, would wrtbt Irom the Bottlers 9,744.659 acres of lnnd in desirable portions 01 the State, and Irom Kansas values of not les than $30,000,000. Though compara'.ively unde veloped to-day, gr-ed.v sp-culutors, watching the secret sessions of the 8-nate, see in the vast natural resources of Kansas colo-sal fortuues easily secured through the corrupt chicanery ol the treaty sybtem.

Tuo following is htsrcDlv: December 20, l8C8.-Dcar Friends I might even say dear fellow-citizens, for ail tree iucq belong to one party I have beeu deeply touched by tbe address which you have frater nally voted ie, aud by the splendid soaveuir that you bave dedicated t my etiorts 10 utt tue Preiich nation out of the abtss iu which lor the last seventeen years the has buen sunk. Tue siectncle presented b? America is the grand argument against tyrauny; all the sophisms of rit-snots full to the ground before that fact. She Is great, she is powerful, she is rich, and yet she Is tree. Imagine theu the ioy I feel, dear fiieuds, at receiving from across the Atlantic a cordial Land-grasp Irom those whom every lepublicau mutt regard as his ma.ters aud models. Mvdear friends all. members of the French Republican Club, of the Radical Repuoiicuu Club, ui.dof all other organizations which take an interest In my labors, jou beseech me uo longer to risk my life in unequal duds. When I threw myself into tbe struggle against those military politicians who are plundering r ranee, and whom 1 Know to De capauie 01 every crime, 1 at once oflf red the services of my lile, and I am bound to conduct myself in such wise an la prove to them tbat if their offers bave not se duced me, their threats caunot terrliy me. No one knows better than myself tbe folly of those so-called sff nrs of honors, which make my country every day more dishonored but in a community where it bas become almost impos sible to write or to speak, it remains only, as a last resort, to show that you are a man. We have at lasMihope. entered upon btruggles more important and stnous. It is for these you cour.se! me to reserve myself henceforih, since 1 hose alone can bring us tbe long-awaited triumph of liberty aud lustice. A thousand, thousand thanks, dear Ir'.eods, tor the comfort your sympathy has afforded me iu'tbe midst of my labors, which are sometimes clouded by olscoursgetnent. To one who haj mad" up bis mind to struggle whero there is so little cer tainty of victory, words like yours are more than a hope they are strength and arms. Be assured, however, dear biothers, that whatever inav be tLe result of the war that honest men have now declared agnlnst tri uinpbttut crime, I will never employ tbe mag nificent pen, ti e leceipt of which has aroused such agreeuble emotions ot surprise, out iu de fense of humanity and France, and not merely to the last drop of my ink, but to the List dron ot blood In my veins. Humble soldier tbat I am in defense of republican ideas, it is from men like you that I look for my prouio ion. No decoration eiven by a despot can ever oe so valued as the pen of honor tbat I bave this day received from the hands of loyal citizens ot free America. Receive in retu'n, dear friends, all that I can seud you my gratitude and my warmest and most iraternal acknow ledgments. Ubmri ItOCEttOBT. POLITICAL MORALITY. How It la Defined by Cieorge W. Curti In bis lecture on "Political .Morality ," George William Curtis BBei the following language: Is tbere a different standard of morality for individuals and nations f May a nation without blume da what a man may not do without dis honor f I remember I was In Boston when Anthony burns, tbe last fugitive slave, was delivered back 10 slavery from Massachusetts. I think it was about one thousand years ago. I ara sure It was la tuedaik ages. A Iriend of mine who thought tbe law wicked, but that it ought to be obeyed, marched down Htute street with a musket In his hands and tears In Ids eyes, lo (orce as innooent a ruau as be was bark Into bondage. He said, as a man, I woald have been shot first, but as a citizen, my daty is plain. I replied tbat there were two ways of obeying the law: yon may do its behest or you may submit to Its penalty. Klcven years later through that same street a regiment ot men, of the race ot Anthony Hums, matched to save ua from Dolitlral ruin. Tbe principle I laydowa la that the rule tor the one does not differ from the rule for the many. Of course I do not deny that practical politics, as the name import, is expediency. It involves a choice of methods, but a bad means to a good end, ami an'mnocent means to a bad end, are equally intolerable. LEGAL INTELLIGENCE.

He has shown an Indomitable per sistency in plans well considered and jus'.tdcd by eood fortune. He has chosen bis lieuteuauts with instinctive felicity, and done justice to their merit with almost unexampled magnan imity. Ue possesses beyond most men tbat vutue of moderation which so many American politicians fschew as unpopular.

Ote Innls. a colored barber In Jersey City, has made tbe treatment of premature bald heads a special study, and after a series of experi ments has demonstrated tbe fact tbat htlr may be grafted into such a heal and made to rrow. He takes bair from the head of another person and examines it with a microscope to ascertain if it Is perfect and healthy. Tots hair he inserts Inlo the cavities of the scalp, and eecures it to Its place by bAndaires, which are allowed to remain a few days until the hair takes root. A writer lo the An't-Slavery S anlartl, who says be has seen the baiber perform this operation successfully, adds with mournful emphasis, "aud jet the Commonwealth of New Jersey in its wisdom tavs that this Mr. Inuis bas not brains eoouah to exercise the elective franchne.''
