PRIVATE coRREsPoNDENCE---c COMMUNICATED
Fob THE NATIONAL INTELLIGENCEK

'' Gibraltar, 25tb Jan, 1920.
GA dispatch boat arrived here last night
from Cadiz, stating that the force OF the re-
yoIutonists at the lsla, or San'Fernando, a.
bout miles from Cadiz, had increased
their numbers materially, and that an ATTACK
upon that city was hourly contemplated.
The revoutionsts have taken possession OF
the arsenal, containing all the stores tor the
expedition to South America, and they have
also part of the feet in their power. There
appears now but one opinion here as to The
result Of the undertaking, and that in few
days they will have proceeded so tar as to-
render further exerions Oh the part OF Fer
dinand useless. Accounts now from all parts
of Spain. speaking of revolts and open de-
clarations against the present government,
confirm the belief that was first entertained,
that the attempt was to be general but,
owing to some movement of troops unex-,
pected, it broke out near CadIz rather pre-
maturely
SC Sir John Douny commandant at Seville,
writes here tina he does not believe the dis
contented troops near Cadiz exceed 5000,
but that they are effective. Some say $4,000
at any rate, thus far all the troops that
have been marched against them have join
ed in the enterprise. There seems but lit
| lie doubt now but that there is an under
standing between the commander at Cadiz
aud the revoutionists, and that when the
attack is made the city will Immediately
openFits gates and receive them. The mai
whu has thus far signed the proclamations,
&c. on the part of the revolulionists, is
Col Antonia Quiroga but 1t is said that a
Count O'Riey is at the head of the whole,
He was implicated in the last, and is said to
be man possessing proper capacity to
conduct the whole.
/" have only tune to add that the vessel
by which write sails Immediately, which
| must account for my haste.

MISSOURI REsOLUTION--REJE
{ Yesterday the house Of Representatives

mated as the friends of true republican
principles we're solicitous-in its rejec-
lion. Mr.. Lowndes exerted himself, with
more than usual energy Oh its behalf, but
without effect; his former remarks had
been ably, and conclusively replied tc, by
those gentlemen who followed in the de-

A gentleman, now in Africa, ia letter

tioning the fatality attendant upon those
persons who went from the United States
withthe view Of forming colony on the
coast OF Africa, says, The misfortune
can De attributed TO no other cause than
the spot selected for their residence. I
can assure you the Island of Bulam pos

colony would require; and should any
other efforts be made to colonize the A.

earnestly intreat and urge, that the friends
