In Spain, matters appear to be very unsettled. The new
Government seems as cautiously to avoid making friends among the Liberals as if it relied upon receiving support from the Car- lists. All accounts from Madrid are incomplete and mysterious : -and it would be folly to speculate upon facts so contradictory and imperfectly detailed. We copy the following paragraph from the Morning Herald.'
."We learn by the advices from Madrid, of the 11th instant, that on the 9th a very extensive plot had been discovered, which had led to a number of arrests. Its ramifications had extended to Toledo and Valladolid, and the Bishop of 'Toledo was said to be one of the principal movers. Important papers had been 'discovered in his house, which led to a knowledge of the leading conspirators; and arms and ammunition had been discovered. It appears that there existed in the capital other depots of arms, and that many officers of the Royal Guard had been arrested."
