CONCLUSION.

There have been several minor operations in the
iibnstering line during the last few years, but we
do not consider them of sufficient importance TO
give detailed account Of their proceedings. When
General Flores failed in England in getting up an
expedition, which he had planned in conjunction
with the Queen Dowager Of Spain for the conquest
Of the republic Of ECUADOR, he came to this country
accompanied by Col. Wright, an English officer, and
endeavored to get mp an expedition. Failing in this
he went 10 Chile and Peru, where he succeeded IN
preparing small party with which be invaded that
republic, but was soon driven out.
When General Castillo, the present President OF
Peru, overturned the government Of technique in
that republic, with the aid q seventy Americans
the latter 10 this city, and after long negotia
tons succeeded in getting up cargo of arms, am
munitiou and equipment on credit, which was sent
70 Valparaiso. Not succeeding IN Kissing the funds
and portion Of them have formed part Of the re.
sources Of Vivanco In his present attempted revolt
ton. In this contest Castillo endeavored
to obtain American assistance In recap
turirg from Vivanco the Chincha guaao
Islands, but did not succeed A brig has lately de-
parted from here for the west coast OF South
America with small hlibuster outfit supposed 10
he intended for q new revolution In Peru. In order
10 five come idea Of what those small expeditions
are we present the following list a her cargo;-93s
cases OF bomb@hells ~ do shot, IS do. mimic cart

cases cavalry sabres
II il said that this expedition is fitted out by Our
old friend George Law, -ho has received cash pay
ment of s25 900 on account and the balance 70 be
paid az some future time, with large bonus OF ga
ano. We close for the present the history on the
fiibuster movements in this country

When arrived in Washington on the 18th November

that although there was no violation OF principle III
not referring the whole Constitution to the people
for a direct vote, il would have been wiser to have

the people that such would be the case and all parties
would have been satisfied That the South at best
could only obtain empty andtemporary triumph,

by emigration, tie only way in which that settlement
could permanently be effected.
IN few days after my arrival il was announced that
Acting Governor stanton had convened the Territorial
Legislature in extra session. course he had undoubted
authority to pursue, however much the policy may be
doubted. The representatives of the people, elected
by 1890 voters, 900 OF whom voted for Mr. Parrot
for Congress, a. being opposed to any Constitution
from the LecomptOn tonN eltl"n, passed bill pro-
