PUERTO CABRLLO, Joly 7, 1868, Since last mail for the United States events of great interest have transpired in this republic. The Peace Convention of Antimano, between Genera! Bruznal, chief of the executive government at Caracas, and General M. A. Rojas, chief of the revolutionary party, has become a dead letter, Rojas having betrayed his party, and abandoned by bis partisans, who left the city of Valencia with the revolutionary troops and opened the campaign with General Kufo Rojas at their head. In the meantime General José Tadea Monagas, late President, ap- proached the capital with an army of twenty-five hundred men; from the eastern States of Barcelona and Camané the revolutionary troops in and in the neighborhood of Caracas, with General Mendoza at their head, join him, and new negotiations for peace are entered into between Monagas and Bruzual, the latter insisting upon the acknowledge- ment of Falcon’s government, and the former only a! lowing the formation of @ provisional government of #ix members, giving Bruzval the election of two. Alter a few day's conference turning on these points & reopening of hostilities js declared on the 20th, On the @ist the forces of Monagas, encamped at Chacao, about three miles from the city, and then about 8,600 strong are Attacked, but they were bray Tepulsed and followed in pursuit to the city of Caracas, which had been carefully fortified by all the ektli of Bruzaaj’s best chiefs, with artillery mounted upon the best sitnated pointe of the city, including the government house, frchbishop's palace, the arsenal and barracks, and the cathedral tteeif, after arresting the archbishop jor refusing to deliver up the keys. The revolutionary army entered the city from the east, owe by one, and with bravery drove Bruzual’s troops from every position. before attacking the Cathedral General José Gre- gorio vagus, the immediate commander of the army, and nephew of the commander-in-chief, Inu. Mated to the off in command the impropriety of barricading themselves tn such @ holy place, and slowed his unwillingness to make it the scene of a vioody contest, The general in command agreeing him set word to General Brazual to have him 1 by another officer, as he was unwilling to rep make himself the instrument of such sacrilege by defending the place. Bruzual put en oMfcer named Lara in charge and fire was opened again by ne Tevolu- tuonists, Who had, in the meantime, been gaining fround’ in other quarters of the etty. ade through the tear of the cathedral b: Pulgar, and the altyr serving them as a barr they drove Bruzual’s troops fach by inch inside butiding into the steeples of the church.

The concert saloon of Andrew Peterson, located in the basement of premises 47 Bowery, was the scene of a terrible affray about two o'clock yester- day morning, which resulted in the death of William Cramer, a young German, only nineteen years of age, Iteppears that at the time named deceased and John Smith, who live in Hudson City, N. J., were in the saloon conversing with two of the waiter girls, While thus engaged, Samuel Josephs, living in Paterson, N. J., then much under the influence of liquor, accompanied by an acquaintance named Smalifealds, entered the place and commenced a dimficulty with Oreamer and Smith. After bandying words a@ few moments Creamer and Josephs, it is sald, left for the street to settle their dimeutty, as Peterson told them they could not nes there. On going oe the steps itis alleged that Josephs and several thieves and sus- Be pious characters who have been in the habit of frequenting the vile resort made an indiscriminate assanit upon, Creamer, knocaing him heavily upon the sidewalk, Smith, who came to the assistance of his friend, was set upon by several of the ruMans, one of whom struck him on the left side of the face and back of the neck, after which several of the gang chased him down the Bowery, towards Bayard street, for the purpose of robbing him. The assailants then fied and made their escape, and a few moments subsequently an officer of the Tenth precinct, who had heard the alarm which had been Paled, hastened to the s ot and found Cramer lying on the walk in a state o! insensibility. He was con- veyed into the saloon, where death ensued soon afterwards, and the body was taken to the Tenth precinct station house in Eldridge street. After hearing of the occurrence Sergeant Weed, in command at the station honse, directed detectives King and Lynn to make vigilant efforts to secure the murderous assailant, and several hours afterwards the officers found Josephs in the upper | portion of premises 411 Canal street, where it is sup- | posed he had taken refuge, and conducted him to the station house to await the result of an investiga- tion, Search is also being made for other parties | known to have been concerned in the affray. After the remains of Cramer had reached the station house it was found his pockets had been rifled of a | gold watch and hair chain and @ breastpin had been | torn from the bosom of his shirt. Coroner Keenan being notified of the murder, pro- ceeded to the siation house yesterday, where Wooster Beach, M. D., made a post-mortem exami- nation on the body of deceased, ana found that con- cussion of the brain, the result of violence, was the cause of death; there was no fracture of the skull, and but a few slight bruises and contusions about the neck and face, A few of the witnesses have been secured, but as a number of the most important ones were absent Coroner Keenan adjourned the inquisition till to-day. Deceased, who is said to have been a young man of good character, lived with his aged mother, at No. 159 Chrystie street. He was a frame joiner and picture frame manufac- turer, and worked at No. 177 Canal street. The place where this tragedy oceurred is said by the police to be the resort of the most vile and abandoned charac- ters of both sexes. The Thirteenth | THE EXCURSION DISASTER, Concluston or the “Tnventigntion—Verdict Against Captain Bloodgood. Coroner Flynn yesterday concluded the investiga- tion commenced some days ago in relation to the recent disaster off the foot of 152d street, North river, by which officer Henry Corlett, late of the Thirty- second precinct, and a girl named Jane Bell lost their lives by drowning. Below will be found a copy of the testimony of another witness and the verdict of the jury:— i ‘TESTIMONY OF JOHN A. HALL. John A. Vall says:—I reside at 106 West Twenty- fourth street; | was “n board the barge Waiter Sands and another was in tow of the steam- tug Seth Low, carrying an excursion party to Dudiey’s Grove; on the return of the party to the city, When opposite 152d street, the steamboat left the barges, dropping her hawser, and came along- side the other barge for the purpose of taking off the passengers who wished to land at 152d street; I was on thelower deck of the barge as she came along- side the barge; | went up stairs and saw the Set! Low leaving the barge with passengers on board; when the steamboat was about fifty yards from the barges I saw the passengers aboard the steamboat making signals as thoug! romporig Son happened among the passengers; I then ran to the other end of the barge to see what was the matter; I saw a young man named Glenn holding on to the person of a Woman in the water; he was sresity exhausted, and I saw @ young man named Charles Breckle Jeap in to his assistance; they got the woman into a small boat, when it partially capsized and the | woman went under water again; other persons leaped over afterwards and saved the party by getting them into the boat; I saw no appliances of any kind aboard the barge reir saving life; the steam- boat continued her course and no assistance was given by any person on board the steamboat to save any one in the water; there were about five hundred male passengers on board the barge. The evidence of several other witnerses was taken, but nothing particularily new or important was elicited. ‘The case was submitted to the jury, who rendered the following verdict:—That Heiry Gorlett came to his death by crore © and that Captain Andrew J. Bloodgood, of the Seth Low, was gutlty of criminal conduct and neglect, as shown by his language at the time of the caguaity, on the 1éth day of July, | | | i 1868. Ou the above verdict Coroner Fiyna required Cap- ‘ain Bloodgood to give bail in the sam of $1,000 to answer any indictment the Grand Jury may find alust him. TOE LABOR MOVEMENT. jceting of the Master Masone—Reports of “Bosses”—Partin! Resumption of Work. An adjourned meeting was held by the master masons yesterday afternoon at their usual place of meeting, the Mechanics and Tradesmen’s Exchange rooms, No, 51 Liverty street. Mr. J. T. Conover oc- cupled the chair. Mr. Ross reported that a prominent master mason had assured him that he had obtained all the ten hour men he wanted, and that a portion of them were society men. This gentieman had two stores in process of construction, he SECRETARY reported that Mr. D. 0, Weeks had resumed work on Randall's island with ten ten-hour men, and matters were progr ssing iloely between botl men and laborers, Mr. WRLEAINTON reported thar he had again com- Menced with four ten-hour men, and he had been promised by two others that they would resume work to-day, Part were soclety men. His greatest trouble ‘Was fo get “front” men to put up rear wails, These could not yet be secured.

These wien were found guilty and fined. Mr. Sayer thought this case analogous vo the present atrike. mM ToSsTEVEN and Dottinaen reterred in quite severe terms to the course of certain daily journals in this city relative to the strike.

MEXICO | Excitement Over the Mazatlan Imbroglio. Resolution of the Mexican Gov- ernment. Rumors of a Huropean Coalition Against the Republic. MEXICO, July 10, 1868. Not a little has transpired since my last letter, the most important items of which, relating to the dim- culty between the commander of her British Majesty's ship Chanticleer, doubtless reached you almost as soon a8 they were received in thiscity, I1send: you with this letter a copy of the resolution of the Mexican government upon this important and deli- cate business, a perusal of which plainly indicates that the officials here have given expression to their national prejudices without examining what the highest authorities upon international law say upon the particular points in this case, Wheaton, in book 2, chapter 2, paragraph 10, section 8, saye:—“A foreign army or fleet, marching through, sailing over or stationed in the territory of another State with whom the foreign sovereign is in amity, are exempt from the civil and criminal jurisdiction of the place. If there be no express prohibition the ports of a friendly State are considered as open to the public armed and commissioned ships belonging to any nation with whom that State {s at peace, Such ships are exempt from the jurisdiction of the local tribunals and authorities, whether they enter the port under the licenee implied from the absence of any prohibition, or under an express permission, stipulated by treaty.” 1 am not disposed to defend tn toto the acts of Commander Bridge, but his course towards General Corona and the Mazatlan Quthorities is sanctioned by all prominent writers upon international law. Commander Bridge being the highest represen tative at Mazatlan of the English government, whose flag he considered had been insulted and her treasury robbed, pursued the very course towards the offend. ers laid down by Wheaton and Vattel, and it re- mains to be seen whether his acts will be sanctioned by his government. ‘The opinion prevails among foreigners here that unless some settlement of the vexed question shall have been made before the resolution of the govern- ment shal! reach the hands of Commander Bridge, something serious will grow out of the attitude which affairs are likely to take. The declaration of the Secretary of War in his communication inform- ing Commander Bridge, through General Corona, that “the government had determined to use force and suffer any sacrifice necessary to maintain the dignity and rights of the republic,” can hardly be viewed as a declaration caiculated to pacify the en- raged commander of the English war vesssel, while the order requiring the officials of the Custom House to be subjected to a trial and be tem- porarily suspended from office cannot be weil re- ceived’ by the same officer who, a bording: to the documents of the War Secretary, was the p: offended and insulted and not the British pet er. Whatever of oficial pettifogaing may be discov- a in this oficial resolution of the government it is perhaps equalied by the Tombs lawyer-like shuf- fing and Be the question by the Diario Oficial in an editorial npon the now interesting subject of “American credits,” which editorial was called out by an earnest demand of tie press of this city upou the government for information as to whether such debts were actually due as the meeting in New York of the 19th of April of creditors claimed was honestly held. The pettifogging in this latter case consists in the Dario’s committing the indecent dishonesty of f substituting the word “ignorant” for the word ‘ug- nored,” as it appeared in the HERALD’s report of that meeting. The teliowin is the action taken by the govern- ment here at Mexico upon this delicate matter:— ‘The President of the republic ia informed of your comnin- nication under date of June 22 last, with the eo} and ite en- closures, in regard to the ma Brides, commander of the frigate- rot-war of her Britannte M Chanticleer, ‘anchored’ in the harbor of Mazadan.

In_the case of the money of Mr. James Sullivan, the English subject, over which, during his absence and death of his nt, Mr. Lafontaine, the English Consul placed the ngs seal, which seal was sub- sequently broken, and the discussion which followed having occastoned the order from this government announcing the non-recognition of English consuls vr (oa gen and their subsequent withdrawal by the ees, nothing has been concluded, bn rage he most ample time has been taken by the courts, and the case seems hopelessly buried in “Mexi- ican chancery.” Does the worid know what Mexican chancery is? Let me explain. The cash and pro- ceeds of goods sold were more than a year since put in the hands of a depositor by the judge, which de- positor is under bonds and the penalty to ye the funds when the court shall Pequire or tl limit of time shall expire. The latter was the case some Wi since, and upon the most - tive and urgent demand of Mr. James Sullivan that the money should be immediately put in the place of public deposit called the ‘Monte de Piedad,” which had been vainly promised him for havin; some time, the judge who has it in charge—Judge Mariscal, of the Sixth Court—begged Mr. Sullivan not to urge the matter, as it would ruin the depos- itor, he having used and speculated with the money, which was placed with him in trust under the re- sponsibility of the government, and that {t was ut- terly impossible for the said depositor to produce the money. Such is chancery in xico, Mr. Sullivan will press this matter now to the bitter end, and un- jess be is speedily satisfied will present all of the facts of this shamefai official TObLery before his own government. Itis due to Mr. Ygnacio Mariscal, a gentieman well known in the United States, to say most distinct); eet it au not he who ts referred to. Mr. Ygnacio mies the Cabinet seat of Minister of Justice.

Nemes a PANAMA, July 14, 1868. ‘The steamer Arizona reached Aspinwall from New York on the 9th inst,, but owing to the large amount of cargo she brought out, among which was a quan- tity of fron ratls for the Pacific Railroad, the Golden Age, which took up her passengers, &0., did not get off from Panama till the 10th inst., and will, in con- sequence, be bebind time in reaching San Francisco. My last gave you intelligence of another revolution and government capsize in Panama. Themovement has met with no favor except.among the few persona directly concerned in it; but ag they are’ supported by the government troops thelr opponents are afraid to say much. The foreign prese of Panama, the only papers published here, have come out very strongly in con- demning so high-handed an outrage on the liberties of the people, and the Star has pretty ably refuted the argument brought forward by the Secretary of State to show that a necessity existed for the change. Since the 6th we have had daily decrees and pro- clamations issued, turning captains into colonels, cotenels into generals and generals into commanders of departments; in fact, everybody has got kicked up a step who has chosen to remain by the govern- ment. Some of the officers, however, have re- signed and had to fee the country, and the judges of the Supreme Court have been replaced because they refused to act under the new régime, This city is kept quiet by armed guards constantly moving about the streets, and there is little danger an Heed here at present; but in the interior, where the con- servative element 1s stronger, a different state of affairs exists, and trouble hy lemarviena reat in Chiriqui, Ve and other departmente. diresdy sepirit of opposition has shown itself at La Villa, where the newly made General Gortia, full of fuss and feathers, marched a few days ago at the head of his to subjugate that section.
