- Spanish King:.
Alfonzo XII (Alfonzo Francisco de
Asais Ferdinand Pio Juan Mario-de
in Conception Gregorio Pelayo) was
born in Madrid, November 28, 1857.
After the downfall of his mother, . in
1868, he followed her to Paris, whence
he went early in 1870 to Vienna, en'
tering the Theresianum, a college de
signed for youth of noble birth, but
only remaining there three j months,
then returning to' Paris to continue
his studies. It was on the 25th of
June, 1870, at the Basilewski man
sion, that his mother formally re
nounced her pretensions i o the crown
of Spain in his favor. It was not
till nearly fivt years afterwards that
he ascended the throne. In Novem
ber, . 1870," Amadeus, the Duke of
Aosta, was elected King, Alfonzo re
ceiving two votes of 311, the offering
of the crown to Prince Leopold, of
HohenzollernSigmaringen, ; having
meanwhile precipitated the Franco
Prussian war and ; brQUght about the
downfall of the Napoleonic dynasty ;
Kins: Amadeus landed tin Spain on
tbe 30th of December, the day on
which Prim the only man who
might perhaps have made his reign
possible, died the v ctim of a coward
