the retired list, generally sustaining the Ma
val Board, but presenting bill for Naval
ScientifcEorps, into which portion Of the
retired officers may be admitted.
The dispatches by the Persia are entirely
friendly. There is no possibility of collision
on the Central American question.
Mr.. Wilson will speak tomorrow against
British claims in Central America, and will
oppose the Clayton and Bulwer treaty. He
opposes Mr.. Stewards plan as leading to war,
and he will offer in conclusion joint resolu
ton, abrogating the Clayton and Bulwer trea-
ty.
Mr.. Douglas has arrived and will oppose the
administration in its policy, upon Central
America. He advises an alliance offensive
with General Walker as preliminary to the
war with Great Britain which is about to take
place upon recommendation of the Presi-
dent, and with the concurrence OF Messrs.
Seward, Foote, and Wilson.

pencd, and q man by the name OF Banks,
miserable rowdy, a triple renegade, and
MASSACHUSETTS Abolitionst, is Speaker Of the
House Of Representatives. The details Of pro-
ceedings which led to this humiliating result
are given fully enough in another place. He
was elected by plurality vote. In an vil mo.
nent the conservative portion of the House
allowed themselves to be beguilded into tho
foolish belief that they could elect a conser-
vatiye man, and consented to aplurality reso-
luton. The consequence was inevitable
BAHKs Is Speaker, and Abolitionism controls
