THE RED MEN. Spotted Tail, Swift Bear, Yellow Hair and Fast Bear at the Astor House, THEY VISIT CENT.AL PARK. What They Think of Landscape Gardening. THEIR FUTURE MOVEMENTS. How They Like the Treaty and Its Terms. Ugh! Awfol not day! Sun burns! Air stings! Indian like ice water! Fire water bad ! Indian ean’t getit. Pale faces go to church; worship clouds. Indian want to go home, Thus thought, if not suid, the four chiefs of Sioux’ tribes who were yesterday domiciled at the Astor House, They rese early, a Spotted Tail, Swift Bear, Yellow Hair and Fast Bear were provided with that wherewith to pay tribute to the stomach, ‘They ate heartily and devoured the crumbs of civi- Mzation with a sort of magnetic zest that showed well how they appreciated the priceless gastronoml- ca} akill of their pale-faced landlord, who, in order to better entertain his guests, procured those de lightful disnea that do not infringe too severely upon the savage taste. The moraing meal over the pacers of the forest gathered about them their robes and blankets and all the gaudy paraphernalia of THEIR WILD ATTIRE, and, assuming expressions of a Conscious superiority over the mean pale faces, retired for a little quiet to ‘their quarters. Asthe day wore on they began to long for woods and streams and deer ana game. Their accom- plished interpreter and Captain D. C. Pool, of the United States Army, who has faithtully represented their every interest, then conducted them to the CENTRAL PARK * mearriages. They were amazed. Where the red men used to flourish among rocks and woods and hidden cascades, they saw a territory covered over with a luxuriant scene of cultivated beauty, where the work was performed by an artist who, with the elements of a toned and finished landscape in his mind, bad on the eartn’s surface a modern Garden of Eden. They wondered, and well they might, for this was civilization. It showed them a type of pro- gress; it spread before their eyes 500 years of entight- enmentin America. But they despised this creation of beauty, this marvel of esthetic culture, It was only the puerile fancy and childish, effeminate toy of the pale face; 1, would never do tor the red man He must live in the sound of waterfalls; his home must be endless solituile; his tenement rade, savage, untouched but giittering, resonant and bewildering natare~nataure oVerhead—in the deep chasm, in the dark ravine, Y) the brooklet and dell and beneath the burning sun, What wa that precise and mechanical Terrace to him? what that superb Mall trimmed with such exactness and resembling the downy velvet of the pale faced squaw’s fashionable gown? What the green sward, the downy lawn and bi 1 mead- ows, as free from wild exposure as the cradled ba- by’s skin’ What was the Pagoda, covered though it was with the gay colors that the red man loves? What the tame animals who could better read and write than the Indian; the pale-faced deer ia the deer paddock ; and the affected aroma and PATENT FINERY OF THE FLOWERS? No, the Indian did not like these—they were alt of an artificial dispensation, They were to him what heresy is to Catholics, what intldeliy ts to the Christian—this bullding architecural foliaged tene- ments out of the lands owned by the Great Spirit. It was the desecration of the pale face, and the red man mourned, Why should they do these things? Why treat the Indian to the same behavior that the poor suffers from ithe rich, that the lowly suffer from the great, that the worthy suffer from the evily The Indian thought this pale facea park Was dissipation; it was indulging a taste; it was pandering to an appetite. Indeed, was this elvilization? Then the red man wanted no civiliza- tion, Indeed, was tis progress? THE RED MAN WANTED NO PROGRESS, for it destroyed; it cut away the great rocks; tt made roads for the pale faces, who Were afraid to track the forests and pursue their own pathways im the wilderness; 1t tore down those great trees and drank up the streams and brooks. No, None of this for the red man, though he died before the setting sun had gone away to tie fudian’s wesiern home. Thus they marvelled at leaivn, ad thus they aroused the lofty contempt of their proud, savage atures and lett asigh on the green that we of New York are accustomed to believe the garden spot of the earth. Noble as their reverence is for the Jost nationalities of America, the Indians, moved by their blind, yet ¢plausibie, superstitions, believe thal the whites are an accursed race of infidels. think them cowards, No men, they say, from the bow and arrow and the tomahawk; men are reluctant to raise THE WAR WHOOP; to sit around camp fires; chase the deer, the fox and the bear into their secret caves an@ hiding places. They jaugh at the susceptibility of white men to avoid the recondite treasures of the woods, and at their taste for-big buildings and cheating tue red men, What a commentary, a forcible exposition of a grand truth, is all this infatuation of the Indian for mis) nomadic and dangerous Ife!

Visit of Senator Morrill and Delegate Hooper to Red Cloud—Mr. Morrill’s Words of Syme pathy—The Red Chief’s Opinion of the More uous—Future Movements of the Party. ‘ WASHINGTON, June 12, 1870, Senator Morrill, of Maine, Chairman of the Com- mitice on Appropriations, and Who had charge of the Indian Appropriation bill, and Delegate Hooper, of Utah, called ycsterday evening on Red Cloud fo pay their respects. The Senator assured Red Cloud of his profound sympathy with him and his race, and that Congress, “the Great Council,’’ the President and the people would deal justly with the Indians. For his part he was convinced they had been too much neglected and, abused, witch operated to the injury of the white as well a3 the red men of the West. IfRed Cloud were to go North he would find multitudes ot friends who would be glad to take him by the hand and stand by him and his people long after he had left them. The country needs peace alike for the good of the Sioux nation and our own, and he hoped Red Cloud would be convinced of this when he saw with What warin-heatted mterest he would be re- ceived by the people of the land. Rea Cloud thanked him, and said he had received much kindness while here from the big chiefs, but he could not forget his people at home, He was sent here to care for their interests, and he thought of them sleeping and waking, tor they were on his heart. He had asked for the removal Of Fort Fetter. mam because it was a curse to his people, and tn- stead of protecting them, as the Great Father had toid him, it only brought mischief into. his country by whiskey drinking, abosing squaws and other bad work. He hoped there would be no war, and there would not if the whites waited forthe Sioux to commence It. His people having no food have to hunt, and when they. do that they are told they were off their reserva- tion and were shot at. This made trouble, and the Indians get the blame, as they have no writers or papers. Delegate Hooper was introduced and satd his peo- le—the Mormons—had crossed and recrossed the Plains forthe last twenty-two years, ‘through the Sioux country, with their women and children, cattie and goods. In all that time, though more than eighty thousand persons, they had never lost a life, an animal or a bale of goods until the railroad was built: since which they had lost some property on the train, He feit it his duty to bear this testimony tothe good conduct of Red Cloud and his people toward them, . Red Cloud thanked him, and said he knew the Mormons; they had always talked straight and dealt fairly with lis peopie.

THE WEEK IN CONGRESS. AN UNUSUALLY LIVELY BUDGET. The Cuban Lobby Mare’s Nest—It Grows Smalier and Smaller—The General Opinion Is that It Is @ Confidence Game or a Trick ef Span- ish Agonte—Senor Ruiz to Be Exam- ined at His Own Request—Appre- hended. Dissension Among Re- publican Leaders—The 8t. Domingo Wrangle. ‘WASHINGTON, June 11, 1870, A preity lively sort ot week has it been here on the whole. The Cuban pond lobby mare’s nest, the St, Domingo wrangle, the city elections, the arrests ot two people for contempt of the mighty House of Representatives, and an unusual quantity of un- pleasantnesses, large and small, have served to keep the public here in a high state of delicious excite- ment, and afforded a relishable novelty in the midst of the dreamy monotony of Congressional proceed- ings. - The Cuban lobby sensation gtows small by degrees ‘and beautifully less, The more one pierces through its stunning looking shell the more one becomes convinced of its almost complete emptiness. What at the frat examination promised to develope into something which would involve members of Con- gress, Cuban envoys and well known characters about town in a most disreputable scheme of bribery and corruption, has dwindled into a very insigni- ficant affair indeed; a mere lobby trick at the most in which certain confidence men got possession of a quantity of valueless bonds, for what precise purpose does not appear, or possibly & not very honorable ruse de guerre on the part of the Spanish Minister to strangle the growing senti- medt in favor of Cuba and defeat in advance the contemplated effort appointed for next Tuesday by the House of Representatives. Ben Butler figures very curiously in the whole of this proceeding. He claims to be on both sides of the question, Loud in his declarations of sympathy with Caba, he nevertheless is laboring very earnestly to develop everything valculated to injure her cause, Under authority from the House to investigate how the gold conspiracy testimony got prematurely into print, he has expanded his inquiry until it seems to take in nearly everything in and out of Congress, Instead of reporting what was expected of him— namely, how General Garfield and his clerk came to hire out the testimony taken before the Gold Conspiracy Investigating Committee—he has apparenily forgotten all about that subject, and busied himself in summoning Tom, Dick and Harry to know how the lobby is conducted, how many members have been bribed and how many news- paper men have Jent themselves to jobbery. He has employed deteettves, it 1s said, to dog people about and listen to their conversations, It is said he wag privy,to a scheme to kidnap the fellow D. B. Taylor from Canada to the United States, so that the whoie story about the Cuban lobby might be disclosed, But Taylor was too smart to be caught that way, declining all suspicious invitations to fishing parties, and other traps laid to get him outside the sacred limits ofthe Dominion. Wad it not been for this lativudinartan investigation of But- ler the Cuban lobby story still would have been en- | tombed among the secrets of the Grand Jury room. Butler is, therefore, responsibte for the whole of this sudden flood of false light upon the Cuban question, It is his fault if, as a result, some votes that before were sure for Cuba are found on the other side when Banks’ resolutions. come up for discussion next Tuesday. Indeed Butler, though pretending to be working hard tor Cuba, does not hesitate to siate that Banks’ report isa sailure; that 1¢ shows no such condition of beiit- gerency as Is recognized by the law of nations, and that when the question comes up members will dis- appear from their seats rather than give their con- sent to support & movement which is suspected of having brivers and swindlers for its advocates. In one of my recent despatches I called attention to another egpreye 4 of Ubis investigation. It has been entirely ex parte. Sefor Ruiz, than whom there is no more respectable man in this country, who has been mentioned as one of the jeaders of the bribery conspiracy, -has never been examined, though he has asked General Butler to summon hin, berteate that he could clear up everything that as been said abont him. ie slates that it is uiterly false from be- the whole story, 50 berg to _end, jar as he.is concerned. His name, he states, was not on any contract, agreement or memorandum, as either principal, accessory or witness, and he 1s ready to swear to all this and more. Now, after having thus applied to be examined, why has General Butler failed to grant the request of Sefior Ruiz? Why not give him a chance to explain under oath? Why not give both sides an impartial hearing ? I learn that Sefior Ruiz, despairing of getting jus- tice at the hands of Butler, has applied to Judge Bingham, who 1s chairman of the Judiclary Commit- tee, ana itis probable he will be granted his long de- sired opportunity to make an explanation, With all Butler's admitted sirewdness and cun- ning, it is evident he goes on a wild. goose chase once in a while. Thus, in this very investigation, when the name of Mr. Par- sons turned up as that of a person who had procured bluff old Ben Wade's influence for Cuba, Butler forthwith jumped at the conclusion that Marshal Parsons, of the United States Supreme Court, was the éndividual, and actually bad the m- nocent Marshal laid out for execution in his report. The jParsons referred to, as your correspond. ent assured General Butler, was an en- tirely different man. Should it turn out that the genial and good natured Sefior Roberts, the Spanish Ambassador, is at the bottoin. of this movement it 1s generally admitted that he will find himself in @ very unpleasant fix. It would be aserious charge against a foreign minister, and how it would affect his relations with our govern- ment is bemg seriously dtscussed, It 1s generally thought 1t would result in his passports being handed to him by Secretary Fish. For a minister to engage in the business of tromping up charges of bribery against Congress- men is no shght offence. It is no joking matter, as Mr. Roberts would could soon discover. But, of course, lam not alleging that the story is true; J am only stating the theory, and explainin; that, if correct, the Spanish Minister would, in all probability, be invited to return to hls native coun- William L, Marcy gave John Crampton his king papers for an offence of not nearly such Jarge proportions. DIVISIONS INTHE REPUBLICAN PARTY. ‘The indications in the Senate for the past week or two point to. a division among what are termed the Jeaders of the republican party. It looks very much as if the old condition of affairs that existed duriug Andrew Johnson's administration was about to be repeated, one part of the party going with the Presi- dent and another opposing him, In. the present in- stance the radical republicans will go with the administration, while the conservatives will try.to form the nucleus of a new party, affiliating more or less with the democrats to break down govern- ment. The debate on St. Domingo has develope this feeling to an extent which was not anticipat by either party, certainly not by the administration, Itis said that the President himself expresses sur- prise at the hostility of such men as Ferry, Sumner and Schurz towards him. His friends have advised him to draw the rems tghtly on these gentlemen, so as to make them work within the party traces. Grant, however, is not as Quick tempered as Johnsoa ‘was, neither is he quiteas bold, His inexpertence in. aoe affairs makes him more or less timid, or at jeast tolerant of the opposition of such men as Sum- ner. The old jealousy of une military power, which cropped out to such a re nes when Grant was elected, has not quite out, In the Executive Session, the other day, it is said Sumner accused the President of endeavoring to set up & military des- potism. For one, if this was contemplated he Wanted to know it. ‘The effort to vent miliary omicers from holding civil ey ions was an- other ebullition of this same feeling. The Cuban question 1s another rock upon which the republicans are likely to split. There is known to be a large majority in the House, made up of republicans and democrats, and a respectable minortiy, if not more, in the Senate, that favor the recognition of the Cubans as beliigerents, The administration, under the guidance of Mr. Fish, stiil holds to its old posi- tion, and already a prominent lawyer has been en- @aged to write down Banks’ report for the news- papers, The fact that this gentleman is connected with the State Department a8 counsel is supposed to show that the administration 1s disposed to continue to eerie the policy heretofore adopted towards Cuba unless Congress should decree otherwise.. The financial questions are another source of division, the Western republicans being antagonistic to those from the East on all questions of currency or bank- lng. Altogether the councils of the party are by no ‘means harmonious, and the breach 13 widening daily. : THE HOUSE ON RETRENCHMENT. ‘The House has made sad_havoe with the Senate amendments to the Legisiative Appropria- tlon bill, the first that has come back after going through the upper House. The Senate piled On amendments to such an extent that all the economic ideas of Mr. Dawes were upset, and the sum total of the appropriation was half as much more as agreed upon by the House, The House Commitice on Appropriations has gone to work and cut out nearly all the amendments, and now the bill goes to a conference cominittee, where it will be wrangled on by the conjréres of the House and the Senate. ¥ PRESIDENT GRANT'S FISHING TOUR. Departure from Washington—The Party— Visit to Senater Cameron’s at Harrisburg—Arrival at Westport~Prepara- tion for Piscatorial Sport. Wasrront, Pa., June 10, 1870, Last evening, on the forty minutes past five P. M. train from Washington, Senator Cameron's fishing party left the national capital on their long talked of piscatorial excursion into the moun- tains of Northwestern Pennsylvania. The party waich left Washington consisted of the Preaident of the United States, Mrs. Grant, Miss Nellie Grant, Master Jessie Grant, Postmaster General Creswell, Senators Edmunds, of Vermont; Howe, of Wiscon- #in, and Robertson, of South Carolina; Represent- ative Rooper, of Massachusetts; Generaf Porter, Pri- vate Secretary to the President; Marshal Sharp and Wife and son, and last, though not least, General Cameron, the host, A special car had been secured for the ovcasion, which added the extra comfort of seclusion, The Weather at the time of starting was anything but encouraging, Not satisfied with fifteen days of rath, after an intermission of one day the floodgates were gain opened, and the well soaked face of nature Was subject to another drenching. When the Presl- dent arrived at the train with bis family, the rest of the party awaiting him there, it was just dnishing Up a very severe shower,, Arriving at Baltimore the Party took carriages across the city for the depot of the Northern Central Railway for Harrisburg. Here the palatial Presidential car of the Pennsylvania Railway was in readiness. The party immediately embarked. The gorgeous saloons, Commodious staterooms, silk trimmings, mirrors and numerous lighted candles were rather more suggestive of the journey of a royal family than of a plain republican President, attended by a few of the higher officers of the government, on @ fishing ex- cursion, At forty minutes past seven P.M, we left Balti- more, our car being attached to the regular train for the North. A sumptuous lunch was now spread in the main saloon, and was much epjoyed by appe- tites not only whetted by the absence of dinner, but as well by the ride. At night we reached Harrisburg. The train ‘was halted near the residence of General Cameron, where the party disembarked ta pass @ few social hours while awaiting the be extent of the Erie train, to which i¢ was pro atiach our car. The spacious parlors of the mansion occupied by General Cameron were thrown open with their usual hospi- tality. mm, assisted by her daughter, Mra. Wayne MeVeigh, and by Mr. McVeigh, her son-in-law, the newly appointed Minister Resi- dent to Constantinople, received the distinguished guests, After some minutes passed in conversation the party were enteriained at supper. Shortly alter two o’clock the car returned from the Gepot, We once more embarked and turned tn for a night's big dea larrisburg our Party’ con- sisted of the President, Postmaster General Creswell, Senators Cameron, Edmunds, Howe aud Robertson; Representative Hooper, General Porter, Marshal Sharp and son, and General Beal, of Chester, who sone Ld Harrisburg, and Mr- Barr, who got aboard at Yor ¢ hour of preparing tot'ets found us high up on the Waters of the Susquehanna, beyond the beauti- ful valley town of Sunbury. At eleven o'clock we breakiasted at Williamsport. The clouds bei not ull we promising much of a piscatorial success, pursued our way, determined to try a hagd at least. At precisely noon to-day we reached thiQpamiet, a station on the Erie Ratiroad about 190 mile east of Ene. The surrounding scenery is wild and moun- tainous, A narrow defile here “passes between two ranges of bills. Kettle Greek here finds a rapid course towards the broad bosom of the Susquehan- na, and drains a number of small mountain streams abounding in front, Here we have joined a party which left Harrisburg in advance, arriving yester- day. This party, made up by Don Cameron, 1s com- posed of Dawson Coleman, of Lebanon; General Kane, of Kane; General Reynvldsand Mr. Hiestand, of Lancaster; Messrs. Colder and McCormick, and Dr, Chariton, of warrisburg; Mr. dick, of Williamsport; Mr, Wistar, of Duncan- non, and Mr, Dutty, of Marietta. They have brought with them all the conveniences of living and si ing, @ hotel on wheels, saloon, dining and kitchen cars. ‘At one o’clock the President, accompanied by General Cameron and several others, visited the resi- dence of Mr. Noyes, a prominent citizen of Westport, and was entertained by an oid fashioned Pennsyi- vania dinner. The rest of the two parties were feasted on the train, Later in the day those who felt disposed to fish set out, and were requested to report and in case of success it Was proposed to make a general demonstration. Senator Edmunds, aliuding to our appetites and sport, remarked that it was a war of the Huns against the Fins. The Rain Spoils All the Sport—A Land Sitic The Presidential Train Blocked Up—Return of the Party to Harrisburg. HARBISBURG, June 11, 1870. The continuea appearance of rain debarred the President from indulging at allin the angling sport at Westport. This was a disappointment, as the success of his trout fishing experience last year had excited his desire to try again. Yesterday afternoon a small party having started returned afftra brict absence on account of the rain. Notwithstanding this fact, however, there was no lack of trout, and the culinary accommodations. on one of the cars enabled @il to indulge their taste for them, if the could not gratify their taste for the sport. After dar the most terrific rain that we had as yet experienced came down like a threatened deluge. ‘fhe necessity for the return of the President to Washington before Monday morning, and fears being entertained in regard to the condition of travel in view of the prospective rise ip the streams, at six clock Iast Night we set out on the -return, halting at a station called Kenovo. At five o'clock this morning we againset out, but had proceeded but a few miles when the train was brought to a short stop by an enormous landslide which covered the track to the depth of twenty feet and a width of about 200 feet. There being no prospect of getting the track cleared the party walked over the immense pile of earth, rocks and trees to a train on the opposite side. On this train we rode as far as Willtamsport, where we dined. Thence the train hastened on to this point, arriving shortly after seven o'clock. The proceeded at once to General Cameron’s residence, where they rest to- night, To-morrow they will be entertained by Mr. Don Cameron at his country seat, Locheil, a few Miles below this city, and in the afternoon will de- part for Baltimore by special train.

MEXICO. The Guatemalean Invasion of Mexico. The Destruction of the City of Oaxaca, Correspondence Relative to the Invasion by the.

Chiapas on the part of Guatemalian filibusters. It has been rumored in certain circles for some time that a combined effort was being made for the separation of Oaxaca, Yucatan, Tehuantepec and Chiapas from the republic of . Mexico, the union of the same with Guatemala, ox & Portion thereof, and the establishment of a new re- public, I¢ has been whispered that serveral very Prominent Mexicans were implicated in the movement, and some high officials, Herewtth will be found some official correspondence on the subject, Ifthe Guatemalians enter upon this business with determination it will cost the Mexican government much toil, money and blood to frustrate it. It ap- Dears that although the Mexican press is fond of presenting it to the world that only the Anglo-Saxon race are filibusters, still the present instance is de- monstrative of the fact that the Spanish-americans: are also possessed of this spirit of aggression and of conquest, of which Hernando Cortez was an illustri- ous example. ©, Mx i—By the copies of the coramunieations of ahha fie ab often aay it et 8 | large portion and 2, i advise Guaibenlsaie, comit s town cal ‘acana, of the fro neighboring re) ley @ peneti aries of their supre a ties dependant ‘on the government of “Oat ei @ government of Guatemala, they were in their own province, with every aioe of advancing, with prejudice to the territory of our ftepublic, Upon the receipt of the cited communications, the first thought of this government was to advise the “Jef politica’® of said department. that, if the invaders did not obey the in- timation which it should make to them, to leave the Mexican territory, it would digposseas them by means of an armed force, allowing also the land marks and ranches which they have formed to be destroyed; but, reflecting afterwards that the resistance which ihe invaders would make against this measure would cause grave results and serious conseque: ‘and, moreover, that the supremo vernment makes the regulations which ft judge necessary upon nil international questions, io lay the mentioned issue before the national decide upon the conduct which it should obs portant cage, and this fs 1 ent information, Now, it has a ao. aved reason for torwi ‘ding the prea- been ordered that the ‘Jefe itica” is only authorized to intimate the evacuation of the. led territory, making » formal protest, on refusal, of = Dv violation of the ‘wish of this republic, This government hopes that the President will see fit to dictate a speedy and energetic measure which may put a check upon the ambition of the government of Guatemala, who has attempted the same thing other times, {a order to extend the limits of its jue risdiction, with detriment to the Mexican territory. MINISTRY OF FORVIGN RELATIONS—MEXICO.

You mention in our report that your first thought was to advise tha gee po- itive of Soconusco that if the Invaders did not obey the intimation dictated of them, to leave the territory, you would give orders to dispossess them by an armed force, declaring that at the rame time the landmarks aud ranches which they have formed should be destroyed. In view of your information the President bas resolved to say to you in reply that he considers it just and necessary to p as you had first thought, and ‘approves of it entirely; that you give orders that {f thé invaders have not obeyed the intina- hon given kthem vou. will dispoaors them by torce, The President hopes that they may have obeyed the intimation, or atleast may not resist the armed force; but if they do 're- sist tt, anda greater force shou'd be needed to drive them out, in view of your report the government will decide what to do to sustain the rights of the nation. Such is the announcement in the official paper of the general government. The revolutionary movement in Guyamas, recently inaugurated, has since been suppressed, The Secretary of War proposes to increase the standing army of the nation to 25,000 men. He re- juires tor their maintenance about nine milltons of jollars—one-haif of the reveaues of the country for @ single year.

The Llane @ having asked information as to the amount Toney presented to the Laucasterian Society - (benevolent) of this capital by Mr. Willtam H. Seward, asa token of regard for this people and a return for the unparalelied hospitality received here, the oficial newspaper announces that the amount given was not considerable. ‘The petition of Mr. Edward J. Perry, agent of the English bondholders, asking that the appropriation bill should include an amount suMcient for oper ment or settlement of said bonds, was referred to the Committee on Petitions during the session of May 19. The Society of Free Thinkers was installed in the National theatre a few days since, speeches belag made by the leaders to an audience of more than 1,000 people. There was coined in Mexico city mint during the mouth of March $26,000 gold and $293,000 silver. One of the dailies of this capital publishes the fol- lowing extract from a Tampico paper with extra- ordinary greed and “gusto.” The writer, having pot Teper but recently escaped from the leading | strings of the nursery, has a holy horror or being’ under restraint, and rauts about “tutelage” as if he himself were competent to be trusted away from home after dark. The sophomorte author pits Mext- can bravery against what he siyies American covet- ousness, Notwithstanding the article below quoted and its parent the world wags on the same:— We not only do not believe in the success of the Cubans, but even more—we do not wish it, To us the present revolus tion, protected by the Americans, supposing an unhoped for victory gained, would case the discoyragement, ruin and bu miliation of the generality of Cubans.

The history of this nation makes ua believe st, and time will confirm cur axser- tion. : ‘The latest news from private sources give full partientars of the terrible earthauake which nearly Tuined the entire city of Oaxaca on the 11th of this month. About haif-past eleven P. M. several hard shocks were felt, causing destruction of lite and pro- perty alloverthe city. ‘The motion was oscillating at tirst from south to north, then vertical or trem- biing. Theshocks lasted about fifty-eight seconds, and. in force, destruction and severity sur= passed anything of the kind that bas ever taken place in this State. Oaxaca is probably one of the strongest, most firmly constructed cities in Mex- ico; yet the condition of the houses since the earthquake 1s truly deplorable—some of them in complete ruins. The palace 1s almost destroyed, and will require thousands of dollars before it cam be made suitable for occupation. San Francisco is one mass of ruins, and the whole of the corridors of the old convent of San Juan de Dios fell, buryin, four persons ane wonnling many more. The clot tower, which was only finished on the 6th of May, Was shaken down, passing through the top of the pullding into the Supreme Court a and through the floors of these into the portals of the palace. The total number of persons killed 18 about one hun, dred, while it is impossible to ascertain the number of the wounded. ‘The shocks continued the next day Thursday), and about a guarter to one a very severe one Was felt. Friday there were one or two very slight shocks. Terror reigns supreme, and upon the countenance of every one anxiety aad fear of greater evil are plainly depicted. Ail remained in the public squares and outside of the city for fear that greater shocks would come, and, on account of its duapidated condition, would make a complete ruin of the entire city. and without'a possible hope of reatity.
