convened in session yesterday, and
President CASTELAR, read his message
He says peace prevails everywhere in
hecountry except in the North, where
the Carlist war exists and at Cartha,
gena, which was captured by Grim
inal instruction in that city, and tbs
fortress and iron clads have not been re
captured because of the want of troops
and resources; but the final overthrow
of the insurrection is certain. There
are undoubtedly direct connections
between the Carlists and Carthagenf
insurgents.

has been terribly aggravated by disor
ganization, lack of discipline and dis
sentjons in the republican ranks, anC
appeals to ALL in face of trouble in the
country, to sink party difference ano
unite in the defence of the republic
While war exists nothing but wal
policy is possible. The expenses of the
war during the recess of the Cortes
were 400 100000 reals. The govern
ment has distributed military com
mands among generals of all parties
in order to give the army a nationa
character. President Castelar, recon-
mends the passage of bills providing
for free public instruction, and for thu
annihilation of involuntary servitud,
and slavery on both sides of the AT
lantic.
He says, "you must first establish {
stable government, then the European
powers will soon recognize the repub
lie. No nation has any irremOvabl'
antipathy to republic. All countries
first desire to see order maintained
and protection given to immense com
mercial interests"

ton to the Virginius affair. These
he said, will demonstrate that war has
been averted, while the principles of in
