HAVANA, June 6.-General Yuclan has
been brought to Puerto Principe.
An official telegram, dated the third in
stant says that body of Spanish cavalry,
consisting of eight men and a sergeant,
encountered IgnaciO Agramonte, at the
head OF eighty mounted men, between
Guadalupe and Yareyes. The sergeant
attacked ArgamOnte, and a reinforcement OF
tftyt Spaniards arriving, a tough engage
ment took place. AgramOnte lost the greater
portion of his horses, and retreated to
the mountains, where he encountered
another Spanish column, whereupon
he abandoned the remainder of his
horses. The telegram, in conclusion,
states that a number Of Cubans were
killed, and several horses and quantity
of arms captured.
The DiaTio says it is considered certain
that Cubans in New Orleans send commits
sioners to Havana, who, under pretext of
being members of the International, pro-
NOTED strikes to gain advantages for the in
surgent cause. The Diario adds that the
Spaniards will repulse all instigations for
that purpose.

publican party recognizes 1he Gugy Of SO
shaDinp legislation as to secure full prOtec-
ton. and the ampIest field for capital; and
for labor. the creator of capital, the largest
opportunities; and just share of mutual
profits for these two great servants Of civil
zatiOn.
Twelfth-We hold that Congress and the
President have only fulfilled an important
duty in their measures tor the suppression
of violent and reasonable organizations in
certain lately rebelliOus regions, and for the
protection of the ballot-box, and that, there
fore ,sthey are entitled to the thanks of the
nation.
Thirteenth-We denounce reputation of
the public debt in any form or disguise as a
national crime. We witness with pride the
reduction Of the principal of the debt, and
the rates of interest of the balance. and
confidently expect that our excellent ma
tional currency will be perfected by a
speedy resumption of specie payments
FOuPteenth-The Republican party is
mindful oflts obligations to the loyal women
Of America for their noble devotion to the
cause of freedom. Their admission into wide
fields of usefulness is viewed with satisfac-
ton, and the honest demands of any class
OF citizens for additional rights should be
treated with respectful consideration.
FItteenth-We heartily approve the action
Of Congress in extending amnesty to those
lately'in rebellion, and rejoice in the growth
of peace and fraternal feeling throughout
the land
Sixteenth-The Republican party pro-
poses to respect the rights reserved by the
people to themselves as carefully as the
powers delegated by them to the States.
Seventeenth-It is the duty of the gen.
eral government to adopt such measures as
will tend to encourage American commerce
and shipbuilding
Eighteenth-We believe that the modest
patriotism, the earnest purpose, the sound
Judgment, the practical wisdom. the incor-
ruptible integrity and the illustrious services
of Ulysses S. Grant have commended him
to the hearts Of the American people, and
with him at our head we start to-day on a
new march to victory.
The national Republican committee or
ganized tonight by electing the following
officers: E. D. Morgan, chairman: w. E.

The stock market continued extremely
dull. There appeared to be very little in
quiry, and no disposition among holders to
press sales at any marked decline. This

for Mechanics and Traders Bank shares
We have rarely heard more complaints
from brokers of the prevailing apathy.
We heard of no movement in warrants.
The sales of city appropriation certificates
included $1,000 $1,000 and $1,000 at II.
