Affairs in Spain.

The Carlists of Spain and elsewhere have been seeking the sanction of the Vatican for an uprising of the followers of Don Jaime in Spain. The ecclesiastics, however, as yet seem to hope to conciliate the present ruler of Spain. In former times, the papal influence has been for the present dynasty rather than the Carlist pretenders. Yet other reports have it that local clerical leaders are urging immediate action on the part of Don Jaime. The party of this man in Spain were planning a demonstration at San Sebastian, Sunday, August 7. The government took such severe action against the committee organizing this that the idea of a demonstration was dropped. In the meantime the king and queen of Spain were heartily enjoying a visit to England, seemingly forgetting the dangers to their throne. What the outcome will be no one, even in Madrid, will venture.
