On a significant night, a report emerged from the telegraph office declaring that King Don Carlos had fled from Bourges and re-entered Spain via Catalonia. This marked a notable moment in Spanish history as Barcelona had risen in rebellion to support him. The news emphasized the shifting political landscape and the rising tensions within the country.

These events seem to encapsulate the tumultuous nature of Spain during that era, highlighting both the struggles for power and the strong regional loyalties. The situation reflects the broader themes of conflict and rebellion, which are prevalent in the writings of Miguel de Cervantes and other authors who capture the spirit of their times.
