General Zavala has written a letter to his friends in that section advising them to give up the struggle and pointing out that further resistance would be useless, Nicaraguaus are proud of the fact that the country has passed through another war without having wit- nessed any of the outrages which usually attend the factional fights in Spanish-Amer- ican countries, No women have been mi treuted by the soldiers of either side.

IAMENT, Furthier Debato on tho o Rtule Bll—A Little Excltoment. Loxpox, Aug. 7.—There was considerable excitement among the conservative members who wore present at the opening of today' session of the House of Commons. The re- port stage on the home ralo bill was reached atan carlier hour than expected and Mr. Balfour, the conservative leader, who had an important amendment to offer to the bill, was not present to submit tho amendment. Mr. «Balfour's proposed amenament is in- tended to prevent the Irish members who shall be retained in the Imperial Parliament from voting on any questions except motions that are offered to amend the home rule nill after the bitl shall have become a law. The conscrvatives were exceedingly desirous of having the amendment submitted. Mr. George Bartley, who represents the north- ern division of Islington 1n the conservative interest, requested to be permitted to act as his substitute in offeriug the amendment, Speaker Peol ruled that at this stage sun- stitutes could not be allowed. A number of conservatives, who bad expected that there would be a prolonged debate on Mr. Bal- four's proposed clause, had taken advantage of their expectations to absent themselyes, intending 1o bo present when notified that o yote was about to be taken upon Mr. Bal- four's proposal. By thowr absence they also lost their ehance of moving amendments to the bill, Among those who had important amendments to offer but who were_absent were Sir Julian Goldsmid, Viscount Wolmer, Mr. Edward Heneage and Major Genersl Goldworthy. Search was madé for tiem, but thoy could not be found. A number of clauses were then proposed by other mem- bers of tho opposition, but tho speaker ruled them out, on the ground that due notice had not been given of their submission or that the proposals did not comply with the rules of the house, The unionists stood aghast as thoy saw. the roport swoeping through with lightning speed. Th ri s aliayed, however, when' M. Parker Smith (liberal unionist) mber of tne Patrick division of Lanarkshiro, after having eight now clausos proposed by him ruled out, obtained the speaker’s sunction to move that the bound- ary commission under the bill be instructed to inquire as to the better division of tho Irish electoral districts, “The debato on this motion was taken up and this gave the opposition time to breathe “The couservative and liberal unionist whips were at once dispatched in search of the absentees to summon them to immediate at- tendance in the house.

He said that the silver in the hands of the people of India was estimated to amount in value to from £150,000,000 to £150,000,000 Owing 10 the steprage of free coinage of sil- ver by the Indian goverument the people were unable to find a market for their metal sud were sustaining enormous losses. The abolition of the hall mark law in England, together with free trade in articles manu. factured from silver, would, he declared, mitigate the eviis brought about by the stoppage of freo coinage. ‘Ihe earl of Kimberley, secretary of state for lndia, admitted that it was desirable to chauge the law, Silver manufacturers in ngland, however, are opposed to the aboli- tion of the law compelling their goods to bear a ball mark. Hesaw no reason why the various standards of mavufactured silver ought not to exist in England the same as in other countrivs. Lord Hersohell, lord high chancellor, said he had been advised that there were no lurge hoards of silver iu India.
