BY AN ASSASSIN. Premier Canovas Del Castillo Murdered at Sauta Ageda. fell Woandwl in the Presence of His Wife— The Assassin Immediately ArrestedThe Minister of the Interior to be Premier ad Interim. Madrid, Aug. 9.—Senor Canovas del Castillo, prime minister of Spain, was assassinated yesterday at Santa Ajyeda, by an anarchist. The murderer fired three shots, oue of which struck the premier in the forehead and another in the chest. The wounded man fell dying at the feet of his wife, who was with him. He lingered in agony for an hour and then passed away, with the cry of “Long Live Spaiu." which were the last words upon his lips. Santa Ageda is noted for its baths. The place is between Sau Sebastian, the summer residence of the Spanish court, and Vittorio, the capital of the province of Aiava, about 80 miles south of liilbao. The premier went there last Thursday to take a three weeks' course of the baths, after which he expected to return to Sau Sebastian to meet United | States Minister Woodford when that geutleman should be officially received by the queen regent. The assassin was immediately arrested. lie is a Neapolitan and gives the name of Rinaldi, but it is believed that this is an assumed name and tiiat his real name is Michele Angiuo Golli. At a special meeting of the cabinet vesterday, under the presidency of Senor Cos-Gavon, minister of the interior, the latter announced that he had been intrusted by the queen reg nt with the premiership ad interim. Biographical. Senor Antonio Oanjvas del Castillo, according to the Dictionaire Uu lversal des Contentporains, was born at Malaga, February », ISIS. He tool, the course in philosophy and law la the University of Madrid and began his career as a journalist. la lsM he made his debut, uni der the patronage of Senors Kios, Kosas and Pacheco, as chief editor of the Patria, in which he defended conservative ideas. About this time he published a volume of lv- : ric poem-* and a series of historical papers. ; He was in doubt, whether to follow a literary ; career, but soon found himself turned to poliI ties by the course of events. In ISai he was i named deputy from Malaga, aud from that time ; to his death has never ceased to occupy a seat | in the forces, in i;v>6 he was charge d'affaires at ! Home, and prepared the historical memoran- | dum on the relations of Spain with the holy ; see, which serve., as a basts for the concordat. | After serving the crown as governor of Cadis [ in lsoj, director general of the aumiuis-.ration j from is«S to Isol, and lastly, in that same year. ! as under secretary of state for the interior, the i ijueen call him to the ministry, as a member of I the Mon cabinet. In tMx> he held the portfolios ! of finance and the colonies in the O'Donnell cabinet, auu it devolved upon him to draw up the law for the abolition of the slave trade. Shortly before the revolution of 1868 he be- | came especially conspicuous as one of the last to defend with energy in the cortes the princij pie of blending liberal aud conciliatory ideas ' with the constitutional monarchy, when all the ; parties that had supported this political doc- | time had deserted the parliament. He was, banished a short time before tht I revolution occurred, and took no part in it. In | the face of the triumphant revolution, after his return from exile and in the full constituent assembly of 1868, supported by Senors Elduayern, Hugallel and two others, he hoisted the standard of legitimate and const itutional monarchy. This is his greatest title to fame. His fidelity and ability finally secured for him the supreme direction of the Aifonsist party, and, on the proclamation of Alfonso XIL as king, on December 31, IW-i, Senor Canovas del | Castillo became president of the council, and i chief of the new cabinet called the cabinet ol conciliation.

extreme conservative party, but he was callec back to the presidency ot the council on December 2. of the same year and charged particularly with the direction of the tlrst legislative elections of the new regime. He was himself elected to the cortes from the city of Madrid, in January. 1818. He was called upon to repress the second attempt ot the Carlists tc bring on a civil war and to deal with the lirst insurrection in Cuba. With the exception of an interval of a few months he continued to hold tne premiership down to 1S79, wheD, on the return of Marshal Martinez Campos from Cuba, he retired from the premiership, and was succeeded by Campos, who accepted as his colleagues the principal associates of Senor Caaovas. The opposition to the policy of Campos soon forced him to retire. Senor Caaovas skillfully resisted, delayed and tinally defeated the free trade and emancipation projects of Campos. On the reassembling ot the cortes, in December. 11*79. Campos gave up the attempt to conduct the government, and Senor Canovas formed a new cabinet on Decern be i 10, with a second Cuban insurrection to be deal' with. Will Benefit the Cana* of Cuba? Xbw York Aug. 9.—Emilio Agratuonte. president of the Jose Marti revolutionary society club and the Marti charity organization of this city, heard the news of the killing of Premier Canovas last night at his home and exclaimed: “This is truly hard to believe.* Then he said: “Sagasta, who is head of the liberals, will surely succeed Canovas, and £ feel certain that should Sagasta succeed Canovas, he will follow the same general policy in regard to Cuba as Canovas made every effort to do. It will doubtless be his idea to bring about a relationship between Spain and Cuba such as exists between England and Canada. But such a relationship will never be accepted. She must have complete and absolute independence. “Still it is my belief that the killing of Canovas will be a great benefit to the cause of Cuba. It may eveu lead to independence. Independence—that is the ouly thing for Cuba. THE PEACH CROP. The Supply of the Luscious Ficlt Will be Curtailed. Cuambersbl'RO, Pa..
