Inauguration Of Gor. Curtin of Pennsyf-
raaia.
HARRISBURG, Pa, Jan. ~.
The Inauguration Of Gov. Curtin took place
to-day. In his speech the Governor says: IL
need hardly renew my pledge, that during my
term OF Office on which am about to enter
will give my whole moral and official power to
the prosecution Of this war, and 10 aiding the
national government in every effort to secure
early and complete success over our malignant
foes, for the preservation of the national gov
ernment's life, and all else should be subordi-
mated. II is the first, highest and noblest
duty Of citizen. II is his protection in per-
son, property and all civil and religious priv
ileges, aud for It's perpetuity in form and power,
he owes all his efforts, his influence, his means
and his life. To compromise with treason
would be but to give it renewed existence and
enable il again to plunge into another useless
war. In the destruction of the military power
OF the rebellion is alone hope of peace, for
while armed rebels march over the soil of any
State no real freedom can prevail, no govern
mental authority consistent with the genius
of free institutions can properly operate. The
people of every State are entitled, under the
constitution, 10 protection fully and fairly
The rebellion must be disarmed aud troden in
the dust BY these means, and these means
alone, can we have enduring union, prosperity
and peace.
MAS in the past, will In the future, in faith
full obedience to the oath have taken, spare
no means, withhold no power, which can
strengthen the government in this conflict.
To the measure OF the citizens chosen to adj
minister the national government adopted to
promote our great, cause l will give my cor
dial approval and earnest cooperation. II is
the cause OF constitutional liberty and law.
l cannot close this address without an earn
est prayer TO the Most High that He will pre-
serve. protect, and guard our beloved country,
and appeal to my fellow-citizens here and
elsewhere in our existing Embarrassment to
lay aside all partizan feelings and unite in
hearty and earnest efforts to support the CON-
mon cause, which involves the welfare of us
all.
Gentlemen OF the Senate and House of Rep
resentatives, pray you in Gods name, let us
in this era OF the history OF the world set an
example of unity and concord in support of
all measures for the preservation of this great
republic

From San DossisOo--CriticaI Position of the
Spanish Army- Victories Of the Donsimi-
cosss.
New YORK, Jan. 10.
The Turks Island Standard of the I'd inst
has dates from the city of st. Domingo of
Dec. 18th and Puerto Plato of the 26th. The
capture of Azua by the Spaniards under Quad
ara Is confirmed, but the Standard states that
although 1t has cost two months fighting and
many lives, as possession it Is OF no great
value to the Spaniards.
A train of eighty mules laden with ammu-
milton for Santannas' army was captured Dec.
9th by the Domincans.
city Dec. 9th to capture ST. Christobal, but
were harrassed terribly by the Dominican
guerrillas, and on reaching defile at the river
Jaina were driven back hitter skilter to the
city, losing some 200 in killed and wounded.
The Dominicans still hold St. Christobal, thus
preventing all land communication with places
occupied by the Spaniards.
Some 20Spaniards, 800 rifles, 1000 rounds OF
cartridges and field piece had been captured
by the Dominicans at Yabacoa, Santannas
army supply depot.
The Spaniards are strengthening the fortif-
cations of ST. Domingo by two redoubts.
Santana is near SAM Guino, and has been
lately reinforced by 1900 men, but there were
more than 100 sick in his camp. He is unable
TO move his army forward. His position is
critical, and il is feared the Dominicans might
infct fatal blow on him.
Two native regiments have been ordered to
be formed ia st. Domingo. M
A severe battle took place Dec 10th Mt
Puerto Plata, in which the Spanards were de-
feated with a loss OF $50 out of 600 men. The
Domineans are represented as fighting with
great gallantry in the encounter, and captured
q cannon.
A rumor that Dominican privateers were
cruising near the island is contradicted.
The Standard in a resume of the situation
of affairs says: "rhe sooner Spain withdraws
from the dishonorable and improbable con-
test the better. The Spanards are masters
only OF the ground they stand on, and
the district through which they fight their way
one day is occupied by the Dominicans the
next. The Spaniards will find instead of van
gushing the Dominicans they will acquire
only cemetery"
