Demand Of rbe King of Holland on the Vene-
zuclan Government for the Observance Of
the Neutrality Laws-The Kings Demand
Treated with Indignity by the Populace--
Memorial to the King.
CURACAO, Feb. s, 1870.
There has been intense excitement here for seve-
raj days In consequence OF an order from the Hague
to expei the two Guzmans who came here with ex-
President Falcon, on account OF representations
which have been made by the government OF vene-
zuea to his Majesty the King OF Holland charging
them with being the instigatorS OF the troubles IN
Venezuela, and that they were taking advantage Of
a residence on neutral soil to aid and abet her ene-
mics, contrary to the laws OF nations respecting
countries at peace with each other. The elder Guz-
man was formerly editor or newspaper
at Caracas, and his son, Guzman Blanco, was all
adherent OF ex-President Falcon; and since they
have been here they have purchased for the reyola
nOnlsts quantities OF arms, ammunition &c When
the terms OF the order were made known here the
greatest indignation was expressed by all classes,
and ils execution was prevented by threats and
force.
The Governor and Council have suspended the
order, aud nave forwarded a protest against 1t TO
the home government, and the merchants here. who
depend on the revoutionists for o great deal Of
trade, are signing memorial to the King praying
that the order be revoked.
In the meantime the GnZmans remain and con-
tinue to carry on their pans against President
MonaGas' government.
Three Venezuelan men-of-war are cruising outside
in hopes Of capturing the GuzmanS IN case they are
forced to leave the Island.

About six hundred OF the French citizens OF New

alton Of the French Revolution OF February "a l848
In which LOUIS Phillip was deposed and ashortlived
repablic lnaugurated. The dinner should have been
given this evening, but The committee OF arrange.
ments found that every hall In the city was engaged,
and were thus compelled to anticipate the anniver
sary. Among the guests were many ladies. After
the dinner was discussed
The president Of the society, Mir. Charles Villa,
read an address, which is TO be sent to the republ
cans OF France. He spoke or the number OF his
fellow citizens present who had suffered exile and
persecution in their devotion TO democratic institu-
tons that during the long dark years since Decem-
ber, 1851, In which the tyrant OF France had en-
slaved people who had drenched the soil OF their
native land In blood for liberty, they had never
despaired Of frances regeneration, notwlthstand-
ing the apparent lassitude ana indifference OF the
heroes or ls4S to the faith OF republlcansm. But
since the ADVENT Of the Lanter'ne which mas en-
couraged other lights Of liberty TO SHINE through
France they were compelled to cry the great nation

ON the 26th OF last UctoDer they had hoped the
beginning Of the end had come. But since the
arrest ana incarceration Of Henri Rocheford they
have decided otherwise, and have submitted to the
judgment Of their co1y1eyes in France. They
sent them this counsel and ADVICE, saying,
"You are on the ground, and YOU under
stand what to do and when to embrace
the opportunity. BE firm and lndefatigabe
in the propagation OF our principles Remain irre-
conciaDly opposed to all adverse to democracy.
Have prudence and AVOID all rash demonstrations,
much desired by those Ia power. Remain vigil
liant, but apparently inactive; but In the moment OF
the decease OF the great criminal who has SO much
dishonored France ana humanity, be assured the
republic is established fact. You undoubtedly
