New YORK, september l7.--Jaooo
Baiz, Consul General for Honduras IN
New York, has received the following
advices regarding the late revolutionary
movement in that country; On his ar
rival in Costs Rico, Soto ordered Del
tsado, Morri and all his chiefs, officers and
enlisted men who were in Nicaragua
who numbered ssventy-seven men, all
told, to invade Honduras, which they
did on the I9.h OF August. The Hon
duras troops met and completely routed
the invading forces. and Morri. Nelasqus
and seven other chiefs and officers were
killed, and only Del Gado and Herrado-
va made good their escape. All the rest
Il the invaders remained on the battle.
field, either dead or prisoners. Del
Gado and Herradova fed to the mount
aims on foot. The people OF Honduras
are unanimous ia their allegiance to the
present Government. aud not one man
sustained or upheld the invaders. Peace
is entirely restored. A later communi.
cation to Gen. Baiz slys: You will have
learned of the total defeat Of Del Qado.
his capture aud the death OF Morri,
along with many other officers and men.
Del Gado is now being tried BY court
martial. Not man rose in bis favor.

conclusion that Soto's last ray OF hope Is
extinRuished.

From time immemorial it has been
the acknowledged principle ITO him
that hath It shall be given.n II has
juss received new illustration and
70 Annapolitans one Of much interest.
A few days ago only, we chronicled
the fact that the old and distinguish
ed institution, Dickinson College, !"
bad conferred on our fellow towns
man, Prof. VIM. I'll. Hopkins the de-
gree Of Doctor of Philosophy. We
now have to note q greater honor,
when we state that the same gentle
man has been unanimously elected
President Of the "Women's College
OF Baltimore now in course Of erec-
ton under the auspices Of the Balti-
more Conference of the Methodist
Episcopal Church. The salary we
understand is a liberal one. A year
at least will pass before the buildings
will be ready for occupancy. Mean
while Dr. Hopkins will probably make
q tour of this aud other countries,
with view to the best equipment Of
the institution, 10 the shape of course
of study, text books, the selection of
professors and instructors apparatus,
etc 1t is intended that the school
shall be of the most advanced grade
as q college for women, pro viding at
the same time al ample preparatory
course. The buildings are located on
Charles street extended, Baltimore.
This Is good selection, an honor to
Annapolis, but we fear, loss which
will be severely felt by our own In
stitution, old st. Johns and the COM
munity.
