 at Each Other.

Pelzin, Dec. 27.-The government and national assembly issued counter defiances.

 The assembly's counter blast took the form of a memorial to the throne, which recites in scathing terms the career of Prince Ching, whose office is that of adviser to the naval depart ment but who is of such influence in the government that he has borne a great share of the attack of the pro- gressives and that of his associates in the grand council, by whom, it is asserted, the country has steadily been impaired
