NEW YORK. Feb. l3.-The IIerald's
Rio Janeiro letter Of Dec. 90, two days
latter than previous adviceS, states that
Admiral Davis with his fleet and the two
prisoners had arrived at Buenas Ayres.
He expressed himself satisfied with the
explanation made by Lopez, and believes
that Washburn, Bliss, and Maslerman
were all engaged in conspiracy to over
throw the Paraguayan government The
remnant of Lopez army was still at
Angustura, Lague being at present his
seat of government. Minister Mcmahon
was with him. Coxias' army was very
much in need of reorganization after the
fight at Valleta.
The fire in the custom house at Rio
Janeiro on the 9th destroyed a quarter
of million worth of property.
LONDON, Feb. l3.-The amnesty petit
ton which will be presented to the
Queen by the Mayor of Dublin contains
over 100000 signatures.
HAVANA, Feb. I3.-Capt. Gen. Dulce
has issued proclamation that insurgents
having refused to accept amnesty, and
others continually joining the insurrec-
tionary force, therefore the proclamation
Of amnesty is withdrawn and the liberty
of the press is also suspended and cen
soTship re- established. The printing and
distribution of newspapers without per-
mission from the government authorities
is prohibited. Persons guilty Of violating
the press laws, and all political prisoners
in future will be triei by court-martial.

TIE CONVERSATIONAL RIOT.

Correspondence of the Cincinnati Gazette
WASHINGTON, Feb. Il.-One subject
has filled all minds in political circles to-
day, and that is the disgrace of yester-
day. The cool reflection Of a night and
day has only intensified the terms in
which all honest men characterize it..
Few now believe that the merits Of the
question at issue had much to do with
Mr.. Buffers course in the beginning
but the opinion is general that he made
and seized upon the occasion to vent his
spleen upon the Senate for presuming to
declare that a point he had raised was
not admissible under the Joint rule
adopted to govern this very case pre-
scented. His manner in the presence of
the Senate was that OF a bully, and
the Globe Of this morning shows, what
was quite generally disputed last
night, that his language was that of a
bIackguard. The House, as appears
from the statements of several members,
did not participate in the disorder so gen
orally as it appeared to do, as quite
number who were shouting order were
directing their calls at the ones who were
encouraging Butler, and not joining with
those legislative rowdies in creating gems
eral confusion. The whole scene was
sprung upon every one so suddenly and
Unexpectedly last evening, that no huro
ried accounts cOulddo justice to it. 1t was
worse than reports made it, and, in fact,
it would be mild to say that had Kit.
Burns rat-pit been transported to the
area in front of the Speakers desk, or
had Ben. Butler stripped himself there
for prize fight the scene or the language
used would not of necessity have UNDER
gone much change. Such is a very gems
eral verdict, made up without regard to
the merits of the case, and solely upon
the conduct of the disorderly ones.
