 | | For two years Espartero ruled Spain in accordance with his Radical and conciliatory dispositions, giving special attention to the re-organization of the administration, taxation and finances, declaring all the estates of the church, congregations and religious orders to be national property, and suppressing the diezma, or tenths. |
 | | Espartero, deeming resistance useless, embarked at Cadiz on the 3oth of July 1843 for England, and lived quietly apart from politics until 1848, when a royal decree restored to him all his honours and his seat in the senate. |
