From verbal accounts which We have received. We
are led 10 believe that Arstas popularity i on the
decline. and that revolution against his Govern
meni Is extremely probable. Indeed. many persons
consider Il certain and say that n VIII occur IN iew
weeks. 1t i said that the President has abandoned
the Liberal party. and allied himself with the clergy
for brlbe This course II i understood, was dOOpt
ed BY the clergy 10 secure their large possessions,
which were menaced by the Government IN order TO
repenish the treasury These reports. however, re-
! celve no confirmation IN the newspapers

Arisia's administration. wages as vigorous war as
ever upon the priests. whilst the trirsrSa the ac-
know edged Jesuit organ, continues 20 exhibit the
most bitter hostility to the Government. The ruWors

The Tran GUnion asserts that foreign diplomacy
had nothing to do with the action OF Congress on the
Garay grant That body alone must bear all the re-
sponsibty. The Government itself cannot be ac.
cused of participation IN this act which was passed
against rs incnations. The only reproach which
with propnety be urged against the adInnistra-
ton IS that did not oppose the proceedings OF Con-
Tess energencally, and with all the means IN Its
power.
