THE COLOMBIAN REVOLUTION.

Peace Measures Defeated by the Appear
ance of New Insurgent Leader,
Under date of July Admiral Jouett
has sent from Savanilla to the Navy De-
partment at Washington report of the
condition of affairs in the United States
of Columbia. He makes mention of a
recent battle between the government
forces and the revolutionists, in which
1000 men were said to have been killed.
The admiral says: "The government
troops, numbering about 1000, have ad.
vanced from Carthagena..to Calomar, on
the banks of the Magdalena river, where
they are strongly entrenched. Chlomar
is 66 miles above Barranquilla. In addi-
ton to this land force the government
has now an efficient steamer called the
Cauca, which is armed as vessel of war
and is ready to patrol the coast or to
perform and naval service which may be
required of her. The revolutionary forces
number only about $500 men, but the
revolutionists hold number of large
river steamers, and are therefore able to
move about freely on tine Magdalena
river, while the government forces, hav-
ing but two small steamers, are obliged
to move by land, and are therefore much
impeded.
"On June 10 General Camargo, a prom
inent Colombian politician and leader,
arrived at this port in an English steamer
and upon landing Immediately assumed
command of the revolutionary army.
The arrival of General Camargo, who is
a violent Liberal, effectually defeated the
efforts to secure peace by treaty, although
there is no doubt but that these efforts
would have been successful if he had re.
manned away while longer. General
Camargo attacked force of about 1900
men with his whole army, and although
he claims to have won the battle, admits
that he suffered a severe loss, which in
cludes seven of his best generals. 1t is
reported that each side lost about 500
men.
''The revolutionists clearly intend to
confine their operations to the Magdalena
river and the interior. This, together
with the fact that the government has
now a steam vessel of war on the Allan.
tic coast, insures the isthmus and vessels
on the high seas against any chance of
disturbance by the revolutionists.
''All reports from the Isthmus of Pan
anna indicate that political matters re-
main unsettled, and that peace and good
order prevail there. There is, however,
an alarming epidemic of yellow fever pre-
vailing at Aspinwall and all over the
isthmus."
Admiral Jouett says that the crews of
all the vessels of the squadron that have
remained are much debilitated by their
long stay in the tropics and the unavoid-
able confinement on board ship and de-
privatio of recreation.

"You treat us id shamefully," is
the way in which the President opened
conversation with a distinguished Mis-
sourian of high position. There was no
doubt that Mr.. Cleveland was thoroughly
out of temper, and the caller, who had
come in with a matter of patronage, felt
chill 60 down his backbone. With a
red face he begged to know what was
up. Then the President entered into an
Indignant explanation about candidate
who had been recommended for office by
some members of Congress and the party
leaders of a State. Information had Just
reached the White House, not through
any of the sponsors, however, that the
office-seeker had a blemish in his record
he had been sentenced to Jail for a
crime. The news had been given to Mr..
Cleveland just before the M;ssouriau en-
tered, and the visitor had come Will.
the flush Of anger was still on.
''But what have | to do with this
case ?" the Missourian asked. II chal-
lenge you, Mr.. President, to show any
recommendation from me-"
81 am speaking generally" the Presi-
dent went on. My remark applies to
Senators, members of Congress and rep
resentatives of the party who come here
and put in endorsements for this and
that man, and leave us to find out after
appointments are announced that we
have made trusted officials of convicts
and bad men. 1t is wrong"
For ten minutes the President contin.
ued in this strain. 1t seemed to relieve
his mind. He was evidently thoroughly
aroused, and spoke as if not caring how
much publicity was given his express.
