Book excerpt: Excerpt from Spain Revisited, Vol. 2 of 2 Many of the passengers in our own and the other diligences, moreover, were young students in the solemn professional garb in which alone sci ence may be acquired in Spain. Most of them had come directly from the masquerade, at the Theatre of the Prince, to the diligence, 'instead of preparing themselves, as would better have he seemed clerical aspirants, by hearing mass. They were talking of various women whom they had entertained, and recounting their respective adven tures in a flippant tone. The postilion happened to ask one of them for his flint and steel. He lifted his cassock, and drew forth a leather pouch containing his smoking apparatus, which be de livered up with the remark I am one of those who always carry the most necessary things with them is there any thing else in which I can serve you? You have only to command! This house is very much at your service l Thus giving him to understand, that, like the student in the masque rade, he carried all his worldly goods with him, and, at the same time, ridiculing the pompous customary profession of service with which a Spa niard places his habitation, and all which it con tains, at the service of the first comer.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Revelations of Spain in 1845, Vol. 1 of 2 The first six months of 1845 will be for ever memorable in the legislative annals of Spain, as having been marked by most important and extensive reforms in the Constitution of 1837 - changes so vast and so threatening to liberty, and at the same time so apparently definitive, as to merit still more than our own Reform Act, the name of a Revolution. The strong position accorded to the Spanish Church of re endowment with real property, and the several events which found their completion last month, in the close of the Cortes and the promulgation of the Con stitutional Reform, combine to give to this second edition, the character of almost a new and substantive work. About one hundred original pages have been added, embodying in the various chapters, under the fitting heads, a careful analysis of all the late constitutional and legislative reforms, and a com pletion of the History to the present hour.

The au thor's name would insure it no acceptation; and there would, besides, be little modesty in appearing as the hero of a narrative, which, to be interesting, must become egotistical and exclusive. If it should succeed, the author will not enjoy it the less that he will enjoy it in secret. But he dreads the con trary. The difficulties which he has encountered in procuring publication are ominous of evil, and he would willingly avoid the odium of having made.

The friar, who seemed to be highly delighted with the way the robber's crime had been requited to him, remarked, that the limbs must all be taken down and collected for Christian burial before Palm Sunday, as no exhibition of that sort could continue during the Holy Week. The conscientious denial of absolution on the part of the murdered curate, may serve as an answer of no little force to such fanatical revilers VOL. II.

Just as we had passed the fork of the road, and this terrible finger-board, pointing to Valladolid, we were overtaken by the Madrid diligence, drawn by no fewer than ten mules, coming on at the rate of a hunt, as is usual with diligences on entering a city, where there are likely to be abundance of spectators to be terrified or astounded by their speed, the zagals whooping, cursing, and belabouring their mules at every jump, and the train setting in motion a cloud of dust, in which we were suffocated.
