With her son to witness the bull fights on Sun

say sac does all this to spite her successor, but
THE REAL OBJECT OF IsABELLAs PROLONGED

Is that she Is pressing her long standing claims

years Of accumulated interest in old arrears due

Dy her father, Ferdinand 7th. She does not
press her Claims very vigorously. Knowing the
embarrassments OF the treasury, she only seeks
the1r recognition and an annual pay ment This.
Ine lawyers say. the government cannot re-

new burden to the estimates that have cIose1
every year since the restoration with deficits
that range from $26 900, 600 to $29 OOO 600. Isa

six or seven days or New York. No one can
calculate the immense advantages from this

says: Your letter OF 18th May was duly re-

Mexico Will commence TO enjoy progress ad-

could in the L. S. bring In the most important
persons we could form a syndicate which
could carry through these enterprises without

They find, after a careful review OF all testI.
that George F. Nye. master Of the Stonington.
dld, through his pilot. alter her course for the
Narragansett without giving the proper signals
as that he also failed to stop his steamer
without properly locating the Narragansett, or
unt1l proper signals could be given, answered
and understood, as required Upon sighting
the Narragansett. through careleSsness or for.
getfulness the signal was given to start the
steamer, which caused the collision Upon his
own admission, there was found In Capt. Nye
disposition to totally disregard the law as far as
greater number of passengers than allowed hy
law, and, In consequence, he is liable to the pen
altfes prescribed by law, and his license as M as
ter and pilot would be revoked had it not already
the Narragansett, proceeded from New York
without the. engineers department being In
charge Of chief engineer as required by law
Upon sighting the Stonlngton, through care
1eSsness or excitement The signals were given
TO go ahead thereby contributing to the colli-
sion. After discovering the fire In the upper
means to eXringuish it; and leaving his steamer
ip lifeboat with his pilot SO soon after the COL
I1son with SO many passengers on board, was
entirely at variance with good judgment and
the duties and obligations Of a master of a
steamer. In consequence Of these violations
MS license as pilot and Inspector has been re-
voked. The Providence and Stonington Steam
ship company did not provide the Narragansett
with complement OF licensed engineers nor
number OF watchmen for her state rooms, deck
and ladies' cabin as required; In consequence OF
which they are ameDable to law as prescribed In
sections AIS and $50, r. s. There was fail.
ure TO ketp a correct list OF passengers as re-
quirt by law, and for which they are amena-
bic. The report recommends In conclusion a
number OF changes In the laws and regulations
governing steamboat navigation as conducive

cate as to signals &c.
