SPAINS SITUATION.
Ihe Cry Oe Hunger To Be
Heard In The Land.
New York, May 25.—A dispatch
to the Herald from Madrid says.
Tho situation in Spain is much
more serious than is generally
said. Black clouds are galh r
i ing over the peninsula and it will
be impossible to avoid the storm,
! which will burst with terribleeff ct
and sweep aaay everything in its
path.
I Such at least is the impression
which I have formed after stopping
here nearly a month and after
numerous conversations with high
ly placed personages belonging to
i the court, the government and
parliament, and with tradesmen,
middle class people and the mass
dS.
When Spaivards are spoken of,
prominence is always given to the
sincere patriotism which supports
Hid animates them under tin
xisting circumstances. 1 do no'
mean to deny the patriotism of the
Spaniards, but it should not be
vaunted to excess, for in Madrid,
furex'jmp'e, the fluctuations of
tho war inter -ts the inhabitants
le-- than Ihe next bu' 1 fishtor the
draw’'Eg'of the national lottery.
’ raking advantage of the ex
,change French and Belgian com
j factors have bought all the wheat
’ in "p in, on which they at once
Iroaiiz'd considerable profi's, and
, w lien the cortes passed a bill for
bidding the “ port of cereals, the
stock of cor . and vh ;at had al
ready cros’d the frontier, leaving
Spam with u* food for her own
people It therefore became neces
, sary io buy fl >ur abroad at ruinous
prices to meet the immediate
demands. In Madrid the price of
bread has not yet made itself felt,
because the mayo- promised to in
d tnnifythe bakers out of the
1 municipal funds but the credits
tor this purpose are not large, and
when they ar exhausted the Mad
rid baker-’ will also be obliged to.
