firing on the troops at Playa Prieta, but their
attack was unsuccessful Col. Pernette was
wounded in the arm by them. Firing was kept
up all the rest of the night and day, with no re-
suits. One company Of sailors left the Benicia
to reinforce the Y. s. force at the railroad sta
ton. The government in the afternoon sent out
a force asd stopped and searched the train
coming from Aspinwall. 1t was reported 70
Captain Hughes, U. S. N, who at once sent out

such thing again. Hereafter guard of u. s.

Amusements of the Week.

Amusements Of the Week. The
present week has baen prolific OF amuse-
m"nts with US. On Monday evening
the drouth of entertainment was refresh.
ed by the efforts Of lecturer who held
forth nt Firemens Hall. His themes
were Mcsmerism, Spiritualisn aud
general newIaugloism. The lecturer
appeared to be "iu the spirit" but utter
ly failed TO mesmerize or electrify his
auditory. Indeed we learn that his
very unorthodox positions were rendered
unsenablo by the pungont queries aud
criticisms Of one Of his hearers.
On Wednesday and Thursday even,
ing the Elliott Hall was filed with
highly entertained audience. John
Byrum's great show" was there The
delusiona of legcr de main wore very
illuSive and amusing. And the Min
s,rel Deiiuuas;on was really excellent
AMI most enjoyable. The burlesque of
