Sicklea, United States Minister to Spain, to-day. called upon Senor Figue sas, and addressed him no follows: ''Par saant to orders from my Government, I salute your Etcollehoy upon the estab? lishment' of a republic iu Spain. The wisdom and dignity with which the' change of Government was effected, is a happy auspice of a glorious futqro for, Spain. The United States, oconpying a large tract of continent civilized by Spa? nish faith and valor, cannot contemplate unmoved the spectacle of tho empire of Ferdinand andlaabellaV transformed into a republic. Tho American people rejoice to see Spain .imitating their example, j and ostablf ing prosperity and power] upon solid foundations. In expressing to your Excellency the fervent good wish of President Grant, and recognizing1 your authority, I accomplish the most j agreeable duty of my mission to this noble and generous country." Sonor Figueras, in reply to General j Sickles, said, "His grave responsibilities would overwhelm him; were it not for euoh moments as the present, when you so eloquently convey the robust voice of the American people in blessing and ao olaiming the advent of the republic, which moderate energy has achieved and prudence will preserve. If the United Statssis indebted to Spain-for the disco very of the American continent, Spaiu is indebted to the United States for the' founding of a new social order. Spain will remember the worthy example set her by the United States." Roub, February 17.?Tho Carnival was brilliantly inaugurated.

Washington, February 17.?The Com-1 mittco on Privileges and Elections meets i to-morrow for consultation, and will re? port Wednesday. It is thought, in Radi? cal circles, that Morton will make a re? port, sustained by Anthony and Alcorn, i iu favor of Kellogg. Oarpenter will; make a report, supported by Hill and Logau, for a new election. Trumbull will report for MoEnery. The better opi? nion is that Trumbull will join Carpen? ter, giving a majority of the oommittee against Kellogg. A member of the committee (not Mr. Trumbull) thinks tho election was as fair as elections usually have been reoently in the South, and that ho one will have tho hardihood to support the Keliogg Government. He thinks Judge Duroll had better have been attending to something else, when he was meddling with State affairs. The committee desires ajcompromise, but that failing, a bill will bo introduced, careful? ly drawn, for a new election, giving tho machinery to tho verge of safety to the State, but under tho supervision of a Federal Jadge, other than Judge Durell, p -obably Judgo Wood.

Havana, February 17.?Senor Oli varez, (he political Secretary, sailed to? day for Spain, to confer with the Go? vernment. Thousands of circulars were distributed yesterday, containing a pic? ture representing volunteers shooting a man in the baak. ,. They were addressed by the Loyalists to the robbers of the public treasury. The circular demands the punishment, as traitors, of em ployoes and merchants engaged in smug? gling, and calls upon the people to guard against the intrigues of the few smugglers who are attempting to induce the intondente to relax his vigilance. The document further says the financial situ? ation is bad, and It is necessary that much of the paper now. in circulation should be withdrawn, substituting gold therefor. The remedy, it concludes, for these evils pointed out, is simple but ne? cessary?to Bhopt those guilty of fraud upon the treasury, irrespective of oolor or oonditiou of the person offending, and invokes General Oaballds to nppiy the remedy, if he Intends to.deserve well of the oountry. General 'Oaballos has issued his expected proclamation, enjoining obedionoe to the Government proclaimed by the Oortes. The proclamation con? cludes with the publication of the names of the new Government of Spain and a telegram from the Minister of tho Colo? nies. Havana continues tranquil. The Diario has only a few words to say upon events in Spain; tho Voze de Cuba still less, aud tho Conslancin nothing. The idea of a republic does not please tho majority of the slave-owners. They do not make any demonstration, but are evidently disappointed. Business is en? tirely suspended; the merohantsrefusing to sell or exchange.

In tho House, tinder the regular call, a bill was introduced bridging the Ar? kansas at Dardanelles. Mr. Merriam in? troduced a bill to provide for free bank? ing and for the resumption of specie payments, Mr. Hoar made a point of order, that no notice bad be?u given of tbo introduotion of the bill. Mr. Mer? riam said that notice had been given, but he admitted that be had changed the title sinoe giving notice. This was fatal, and the bill was withdrawn.

New Yobs: Central Park.?The an? nual report of tho Departmout of Public Parks in New York, for 1872, just pub? lished, shows that daring tho year the appropriations amounted to $971,016, and the expenditures to $897,430, leav iug a balance of $74,181. The Central Park, to January, 1872, cost $12,448, 623, but ou the other hand the city has i euiized great benefits from this improve- j meut. Thus, in three wards adjoining the Park, the assessed value of property has risen from $26,429,585 in 1856, to $185,801,195 in 1871, being an increased valuation of $159,371,630. In the three wards mentioned, the increased taxes huve exceeded the interest on tho cost of land and improvements by $2,720,596. In 1871, over 10,000,000 persons, or 30, 000 persons daily, visited tho Park, while on some Sundays as many as 100,000 persons have enjoyed its benefits. The Central Park police in 1871, cost $148, 014. '?Who Belongs to It?"?An awkward question has anseu in Kansas: What shall be done with the money that Se? nator York says ho received from Se? nator Pomeroy? $7,000 is a sum too large to take cure of itself. York bund? ed it to tbe officers of the Legislature, "quit claiming" bis title. It does not belong to the officers, and it is not like? ly that Senator Pomeroy will claim it, if it was ever his. In fact, this snug little sum seems to be knocking about with? out an owner. This is a remarkablo fact in Kausua politics, and if, iu the course of human events, it should turn out that it shall escape all the private traps which are usually set for wuifs of that sort, and find its way iuto the Stute Treasury, then there is sorue room to hope that oven the tricks of politicians have a limit. Fire at Church Flats.?The store o? Messrs. Lancaster, Howe & Co., situated nu the main land at Church Flats, Stono River, was totally destroyed, with its contents, about midnight on Thursday last. The less is estimated at 63,000, on which there wus no insurance. The lire is supposed to have been the work of an incendiary. Mr. John H. Miller, the manager of the store, was iu tho ou.' at the time of the disaster. His wife and child barely escaped alive, having been compelled to flee iu their night clothing. Tbo clothing, furniture, &c, of Mr. Mil? ler's family were destroyed. Mr. W. Butler, a clerk iu the store, behaved most gallantly, and but for his exertions, Mrs. Miller and child might have pe? rished in tho flames.?Charleston News, The course that legislation is taking in the various States is regarded iu many respects as extraordinary. An exchange remarks that there is now pending in one of tho States a bill to make chil? dren born out of wedlock legitimate, and to make them the heirs of their fathers iu an equal degree with their other chil? dren. And now comes a law-maker of Pennsylvania, and proposes, iu a bill in? troduced iu the Legislature of that State, on yesterday, that whenever au unmar? ried man aud ou unmarried female are found to havo beeu guilty of illicit inter? course, they shall thereupon be declared to bo married to each other quite as if the nuptial ceremony had been regularly performed. Whether this is to be in lieu of all other penalties for their crime does not appear. -? ? Fatal Affrat.?Yesterday aftoruoon, about 3 o'clock, an affray occurred iu tbe bar-room of Henry Severs, about a mile North-west of this city, iu which a negro, by tbo name of Rumple, lost bis life at tho hands of one Joe Baker, a white man. The negro was stabbed to the heart with a large knife, and died iu a very lew mo? ments after receiving the injury. Baker was arrested at his house, two miles from the scene of the homicide, aud brought to this city, where he was lodged in jail. Baker strenuously denies having perpe? trated the deed.?Charlotte Observer. Tho grand jury of Jacksonville, Ore? gon, iudioted Scarfnued Chnrlej', Hocker Jim, One-eyed Moso, Old Doctor Hum? phrey, Little Jim, Boston Charley and Dave, all belonging to Captain Jack's baud of Modocs, for murder in the first degree. Mrs. Brot nerton and son, tho survivors of tho Brothertou family, swore positively that these Indians were iu tho band which massacred the settlers on Lost River, Lst Deoember. It is be? lieved the sheriff will uot try to make any arrests till tbo result of the Peace Commission is known. Grant's Forthcoming Inaugural?A Washington despatch says: "The Presi? dent has not yet commenced the prepa? ration of his inaugural address, and very few speculations havo beeu made con? cerning it. It is believed that its tone towards tbe South will bo very friendly, aud intimations aro freely made that the next Administration will be very con? servative." Tho proprietors of the Charleston Evening Bulletin, for whose unrest bench warrants were issued on Friday, appeared ot tho sheriff's office ou Saturday, and gave bonds for their appearnuce for trial on the charge of libeling the officers of the court. The palace is now completed for tho Vienna exhibition, and the various fo? reign commissioners are already busily employed iu tilling their respective de? partments. Those of France, Egypt and Turkey are far advanced. A bill has paused the Virginia Senate making tbe seduction of females a fe? lony, with a penalty of from five to ten years' imprisoumeut iu the penitentiary.
