of it in Spain is full of instruction to us at the present maasent. The report is confirmed of the discovery of widespread Car list conspiracy at Barcelona, but beyond the fact of eight of the principal inhabitants of the town being among the persons arrested, no details are as yet supplied. We have already noticed the circumstance of the Portuguese Ministry having resigned. We now learn, that the Duke of Saldanba has been summoned by the King of Portugal from Rome to form a new Administration though it seems that both at Lis boa and at Oporto there is a great feeling in favour of the late Ministers, and a body of merchants has petitioned his Majesty to recall them, and dissolve the Chambers. The sitting of the Greco-Turkish Conference in Paris on Saturday was mainly occupied with the preliminary formalities.

They subsequently agreed on a communication, to be despatched by telegraph to Constantinople and Athens, requesting the Governments of Turkey and Greece to maintain the statu quo pending' the deliberations of the Conference. The Conference on the Greco-Turkish dispute has apparently ceased to be a fair proceeding. It has obliged the Greek deputy to withdraw from its conn, 36 la. The Greek Government telegraphed to its Minis-ter at Paris, instructing him not to attend the Conference unless he was admitted on the same footing as the Turkish representative and the Conference has now and proceeded with its deliberations notwithstanding the withdrawal of the Greek Minister. Greece, therefore, is no longer a party to it According to the Paris Moniteur, the Greek representative to the Conference has been treated very cavalierly by M.

de Lavalette, the French Foreign Minister. The account it gives is this, de Lavaiette's secretory called at the Greek Legation on Friday, and asked for M. Rbaggsbe. M. Rhaggabe was out Secretary left his card, with a verbal message to the effect that the Minister for Foreign Affairs begged him to call next day at four to attend the Conference.

Next morning an employe called to inquire if he had received the message, and if he did mean to come. Rhaggabe asked on what grounds he was invited, and added that if he was only to be present without a right of voting he should withdraw. We know the result It is thought impossible now that the Conference can do much good. There would appear to have been but little hops of much success from the Conference by the Government at St Petersburg and the Russian press has been unanimous in predicting its failure.

Cocoa is indigenous to South America, of which Maravilla is a favoured portion. Tat lor Brothers- having secured the exclusive supply of this unrivalled Cocoa, have, by the skilful application of their soluble principle and elaborate machinery, produced what is so undeniably the perfection of prepared Cocoa, that it has not only secured the preference of homoeopaths and cocoa-drinkers generally, bat many who have hitherto not found any preparation to suit them, have, after one trial, adopted the Maravilla Cocoa a their constant beverage for breakfast, luncheon, Ac A SUCCESS- UNPRECEDENTED." See following Extract from the Globe, of May 14v 1368.. Various importers and manufacturers have attempted to attain a reputation for their prepared Cocoas, but we doubt whether any success had been achieved until Messrs.

Taylor Brothers discovered the extraordinary qualities of Maravilla" Cocoa. Adapting their perfect system of preparation to this fanest of all species of the Theobroma, they have produced an article which supersedes every other Cocoa in the market Entire solubility, a delicate aroma, and a rare concentration of the purest elements of nutrition, distinguish the Maravilla Cocoa above all others. For homoeopaths and invalids we could not recommend a more agreeable or valuable beverage. Sold in packets only, by all Grocers, Jlb. and lib.

SUMMARY OP NEWS. It is stated that the new Foreign Minister of Franoe, M. de Lavalette, has sent a circular to the French envoys abroad, telling them not to let their zeal outrun, their discretion in prosecuting foreign prints for attacks against the Emperor. We learn that the French provincial journalists complain that they are prevented from furnishing tneir readers with any report of what passes in the Legiala-lative Chambers, in consequence of being- obliged to publish the entire proceedings or make no allusion to them whatever. They declare they have not room for the official report, and appeal to Government to alleviate their position.

The Moniigur seems to be in a position to disclose official privacies more freely, of course, than when it was itself under efficial patronage and control One of its latest revelations is that the French Cabinet is no longer a "happy family." Marshal Niel is said to have had a tiff with M. de and M. de For-cade la Roquette has had a difficulty with M. Rouher himself." Some of the Paris papers state that a marriage has been arranged between the Prince of' Asturias and a daughter of the "Duke de the Prince is very young, and his bride elect is not yet born The last aeeounts of Prince Napoleon represent him as out of danger, but so seriously prostrated by his illness that he is left but a shadow of his once portly self. It seems that at one time he had as many as five doctors in attendance but the strength of his constitution afords every reason for hoping his speedy restoration to health.

It seems to be expected in Paris that the Emperor will open the Chambers with a speech more than ordinarily vigorous on the subject of foreign pelioy, and likely to. take those persons by surprise who have given ear to the rumours of his Majesty '3 waning capacity for business. It is- believed that Baron Seguier will follow the example of M. Pinard, and join the Paris bar. There is some-talk also of the Procureur-Imperial of Versailles following the example of M.

Seguier, while the magistracy in general is reported to be discontented with the conduct of the Government and the tone of the official journals. The budget of the French Minister of Finance, an abstract of which we published yesterday, isoonsidered to be, on the whole, free from any extraordinary or alarming features, owing to the greatly increased receipts from taxes. The Minister testifies to the gradual restoration of public confidence. The ground of such confidence, however, according to one of the semiofficial exponents of the press, is rather an eqnivocal We are now strong enough," it says, to live in perfect harmony with all the Powers, because we are strong enough, if need be, to- fight them. The Conference at Paris has continued its- sittings.

An. incident has occurred which, though it wab- not expected to interfere with the progress of the Con ference, could not but be an unfavourable omen as to its practical results. The Greek renresentafcive tested against his position as compared with thai of tne Auriush representative, and announced that he should telegraph to his Government for instructions as to whether he should withdraw from the Conference. The accounts from Spain are still nnsaW. There has been further insurrection anywhere, but were 18 aisariection.

And even in the capital, where the Provisional Government. ia i. xuvugw, mere is an alarming under-current of discontent Some uneasiness is felt there, we learn, owing to the Voluntaries de la Libertad having in some sort espoused the cause of thoso at Cadiz and Malaga and requested the recall of General Caballerode Rodas. and. guarantees tiat they themselves shouldi not be dis armed, several conferences have been held with this object with, the authorities.

The Volunteers have become a power in the nation, and it is believed that the Government is afraid of thenu The Spanish Provisional Government, in immediate preparation doubtless foe the elections to the Cortes has issue a Manifesto, addressed to the electors, which ihehallenges approval ef its conduct, and claims to have- fulfilled all the promises made at the commencement of the Revolution, reiterating also its pro-mise to maintain a strict neutrality dwiag the elections -the result of which, as to the form of government, it gives a pledge to at the same time, it cannot withhold its opinion that the monarchical principle is more-likely to ensure a happv foJmre than any other. They are finding out in Spain, along with other evis. revolutions, their costliness. We see it stated that the revolutionary disturbances at Cadiz have cost ne numons of real (90,000 damage to private property, without counting municipal losses or the sorrows of the families injured by the wounds or death ci thai bread-winners. The similar disturbances at Mafega arc thought likely to have cost as raucb more.

The demoralizing effects oi the Snaniab V-c-r are said to be strikingly seen in Andalusia where it has led to so strong an attachment to the communistic principle, that they have actually asked for a division of the municipal property amongst them In Estremadura they are a step further in enlightenment for there they are waiting for the Republic to do away entirely with purchase and sale; goods are to he obtained at the shops simply by the asking for and no money to be paid at all as we see remarked, "the inhabitants of St. Giles's expecting Ae City oi London to divide tably amongst them its Corporation property or the natives of White-chapel expecting the butcher, baker, and grocer to supply their daily wants fre of allsuch sordidne as a request lor payment From Republicanism to Socialism ThlatZ8 9teP "Nonary times."

The Invalvie Jtusse has predicted that it would be impossible for Russia to support the Turkish ultimatum at the Conference, as the Greet Government had given no support to the Cretans, and could not constitutionally prevent -the patriots of Athens from assisting their heroic brothers.
