Andrews, Barcelona to Grantham, Madrid Has seen all the curiosities of Barcelona, but still more curious the mountain of Montserrat "admired by me for the wildness of its situation and the beautiful prospects it commands, and by others in a religious light as the habitation of the wonder-working Virgin". Visited Hermitages built on apparently inaccessible cliffs, giving him no mean opinion of his own strength. Lord Harcourt, the new Ld. Lieut. of Ireland, has shown no leaning to either party. Will leave Spain in a few days.
