NOVALICHES, MANUEL PAVIA Y LACY, 1ST MARQUIS DE (1814-1896) , Spanish
marshal
 , was born at
Granada
  on the 6th of July 1814. He was the son of Colonel Pavia, and after a few years at the Jesuit school of Valencia he entered the Royal Artillery
Academy
  at
Segovia
 . In 1833 he became a
lieutenant
  in the guards of Queen Isabella II., and during the Carlist War from 1833 to 1840 he became general of division in the latter year at the early age of twenty-six. The Moderate party made him war minister in 1847, and sent him to Catalonia, where his efforts to put down a Carlist rising were not attended with success. He had been made a senator in 1845, and marquis in 1848. He was sent out to Manila in 1852 as captain-general of the Philippine Islands. In April 1854 he crushed with much sternness a formidable insurrection and carried out many useful reforms. On his return to Spain he married the countess of Santa
Isabel
 , and commanded the reserves in the Peninsula during the war with Morocco. He refused the war
portfolio
  twice offered him by Marshals O'Donnell and Narvaez and undertook to form a cabinet of Moderates in 1864 that lived but a few days. He volunteered to crush the insurrection in Madrid on the 22nd of June 1866, and when the revolution broke out in September 1868 accepted the command of Queen Isabella's troops. He was defeated by
Marshal
  Serrano at the
bridge
  of Alcolea on the 28th of September 1868, and was so badly wounded in the face that he was disfigured for life He kept apart during the revolution and went to meet King Alfonso when he landed at Valencia in January 1875. The Restoration made the marquis de Novaliches a senator, and the new king gave him the Golden Fleece. He died in Madrid on the 22nd of October 1896.
