Senior CASTELAR,, who has been visiting
Rome, was recently entertained there by
the members Of the Italian constitutions
al prOgreasist association, and addressed
them in reference to the JemgcTsiic
movement in Europe, devOtiGg special
attention TO its manifestations In Spain
and Italy. He urged that the Radical
parties of Europe should combine pru-
dence with their zeal, in order to achieve
success. Said he. 81 could never tire Of
speaking upon this point, because I be-
lieVe that the worst fault CI democracy
arises from it's impatiaLce, and that
demagOgy constitutes its sole obstacle.
The periods Of revolution ana viOIeuCe
are ceasiDg in all Europe. The people
who, to their disgrace, fail into absurd
reactions, who see epoch OF hated
tyranny return upon them; the people
Who, losing the liberty Of the press and
the liberty of speech, find themselves
brought to the feet Of theOcracy by fool
ish reactiOnists and hurled into she
abyss, these people have 10 other
remedy but recourse to revolution. But
the people who possess the essential con-
ditiOn Of modern life, who are governed
by constitutional system sufficiently
ample, with liberty Of the press and the
platform, and who can dsmsud reforms
through the fundamentally OF pariiG-
ment and the popular vote, appear to
me, if they resort to g revolution, quite
as foolish as the TeaCtiOuists. They es-
tablish q tyranny fol themselves, and
perish with all the disgrace of suicide
Both France and Spain were cited by
him IS examples OF this.

both declared that they were married,
they had no evidence of the fact to offer.
From that time Mr.. and Mrs. COrtereal
dwelt together as man and wife, living
generally in this city, though twice she
accompanied him to Havana on his
business trips. Since her marriage with
COrtereal she inherited from her father
some valuable property, among other
pieces of real estate the handsome house
on SchermerhOrn street, in which he
died few years ago. The last home
she had in this city was in = boarding.
house in Nineteenth street, where she
and her husband met DR.. Curtis and his
family. The wives and the husbands
became very intimate, and though DR..
Curtis removed from the city he fire.
quently returned to call on Mrs COrte.
real. He seems to have been 8 weak
man, easily infatuated and without
prudence. Mr.. COIteTeal Wss called
to Havana by his business engagements
few months ago, and about the middle
of May his wife went to join. Immedi-
ately after her departure, DR.. Curtis told
his wife that he was going out OF town
to be gone several days, and without
further explanation he packed his Tag
and started for Havana. The result was
told in yesterdays dispatches. Curtis
had been there about q fortnight, when
last Friday Cortereal burst into his room
early in the morning, awOke him viO-
lentiy, and accused him Of having held
illicit connection with his wife. Curtis
denied the truth Of the charge. An eX-
cited meeting followed, and few hours
later the two drove together, without
witne sses, 10 Marianao, and there fought
the duel. At the fifth fire Corteresl saw
his opponent fall, and then, under some
impulse, either Of fear or despair, he
turned and shot himself through the
head. His acquaintance here describe
Cortereal as man of high passion, but
of no moral courage, and they say that
he would not have dared to fight had be
waited for his frenzy to cool. In mo-
ments Of passion he became eXlraVs-
giant even to arrangement, and it was
under such 8n impulse that he must
have stood up in the duel. When he
was in the Henry street boardinghOuss
in Brooklyn, he at times, when dis
pleased by the management of the
house, proceeded to his room and vented
his anger on the furniture, which he
wrecked and threw from the window.
This he did three times, each time ab-
senting himself from the house for sew
eral days. Then he returned with apollo
gies for his conduct and new set Of
fIIrDiTIIro for his rOOYs0
