We were in diplomatic uniform. The Regent resides in a very spacious palace called Buena Vista, formerly belonging to the Prince of the Peace. It has an elevated site, with terraces in front, so that it might resist an attack and maintain a respectable de- fence — an important consideration in the residence of the pres- ent mihtary head of the Government, who is surrounded by dangers, and the object of incessant machinations. We passed by sentinels posted at the entrance and in vari- ous parts ...of the palace, and were introduced into an anteroom of spacious dimensions, with busts of Espartero in two of the cor- ners, and a picture of him in one of his most celebrated battles. Some of his officers and aides-de-camp were in this room, as well as Mr. Cavalcanti de Albuquerque, charge d'affaires of Brazil, who came to deliver letters of credence as resident Minister. After a little while, we (Mr, Vail, Hamilton, and myself) were ushered into an inner saloon, at one end of which Espar- tero stationed himself, with Count Almodovar, Minister of State, on his right hand.
