Mr. Crampton and Mr. Clay ton. Amongst the letters on the Central Americau question recently published bv the British government, is one dated March 31, 1860, from Mr. Crampton to the Earl of Clarendon, from which the following is au extract: Wxsuixqton, March 31, 185 G. It will he withiu your lordship’s re collection that Mr. Clayton was inform ed, by Sir Ile.nry Btilwer, before thu treaty of 1859 was signed, that Ruatan was de jure de facto a British possession; and Mr. Clayton has on various occa sions since in conversation with me, stal ed that he considered Ruatan as much a British possession as Jamaica or any other British If r est India Islands. In the Sena’c, on yesterday, Mr. Clay ton called the attention of that body to this extract, and in the most positive and indignant terms denied the truth of Mr. Crumpton's statement. He called on Air. Crittenden, who was accidentally present and heard a conversation be tween Mr. Crampton and Mr. Clayton ■on this subject, some time in March, to state whether the extract reported the conversation correctly. Mr. Crittenden fully sustained Mr. Clayton, and said Mr. Clayton’s position in that conversa tion was directly the reverse of that at tributed to nim by Mr. Crampton It is a matter of surprise that a gentleman occupying the position held by Mr. Crampton should be guilty of such a perversion. As to the truth of the case there can be no doubt, and we are not astouiahed that Mr. Clayton manifested a feeling of indignation at such au act of injustice.— Washinylon Union. President’s Message on Nica ragua. On Thursday the 15th inst., a message was received from the President relative to the routes of transit between the At lantic and Pacific Oceans, and the gen eral condition of Nicaragua. He says the small party of American citizens invited to Nicaragua by the Caslillion party there, have apparently put an end to the political struggle which existed in that State. “We do not go behind the fact that a foreign Government ex ercises actual power in investigating in to the question of legitimacy, nor do we inquire into the causes that may have led to a change of government. If, then, when Parker 11. French, the Nicaraguan Minister, came here a few mouths ago, the facts now presented had existed, he must have been received. Various ob jections to him were stated. Another Minister—Padre Vijil—has presented himself and been received, satisfactory •evidence existing that be represented the Government of Nicaragua, de jure nnd de facto."' The President then ad vances various considerations of interest with reference to the propriety of his reception, lie recommends additional measures of security for thetransit route. Nr. Weller spoke in support of the action of the administration. lie re viewed Walker's whole history, includ ing his invitation to and advent into Nicaragua. He spoke warmly and feel ingly. Mr. Crittenden denounced the action of the Executive, and said that in less than ten days after the intelligence that we had recognized the new Government of Nicaragua, Europe and our country would be involved in war in consequence W ashington Items. —Wasl ii ngton May 19, the President lias vetoed the bill for the improvements of the St. Clair Flats, at the mouth of the Missis sippi river. It is understood that the President will not veto the act making appropri ntions for the improvements in the Sa vannah river. The case of Mr. Crampton was con sidered in the Cabinet sessiou to-day.— It is confidently believed he will be im mediately dismissed. Astou Hovse, New Yoiik. — The firm of Coleman & Stetson, the land lords of the “ Astor House,” has been .dissolved, in consequence of (heir ina bility to meet the acceptances of A. B. Coleman, of the “ Burnett House,” in Cincinnati Ohio, amounting to $140,000. All the regular debts of the Astor House are secured, and Mr. Stetson will con tinue the business. Railroad Enterprise. —The people of Texas seem to be pretty generally responding to the call for a Railroad Convention at Austin, on the 4th of Ju ly next. The movement is evidently made with more earnestuess than any before in the State, and we believe will result in much good, if all sectional and local prejudices can be discarded and the good of the whole State kept stead ily in veiw. The different sections of the State have never understood each other upon this important subject, and it is well and wisely contemplated to bring them all together for its free dis cussion and a better understanding. ill |£IIII ?19.1 Indian News from Florida. An extra from the Alligator Adver t’.scr, of May 9tb, confirms the previous reports of the presence of Indians, in considerable numbers, in the Gulf Ham mock, Levy county; Col. Wright, who had been sent out with au exploring par ty, reports that on the sth inst., while scouting in the Gulf Hammock and ad jacent swamps, fresh Indian trails were frequently discovered, one of which fif teen or twenty Indians had apparently just passed over; was pursued by Cos!. Wright’s command to a dense swamp which it was thought imprudent to en ter with so small a force, as the Indians had evidently taken a strong position, and only awaited tile approach of their pursuers to give them a murderous fire, nnd then continue their retreat. Col. Wright isfully satisfied that the Indians are ia the Gulf Hammock in consider able force, and that they are quits indif ferent to the consequences of their pres ence briny known. Col. Wright, be lieving his force too small to continue operations in the hammock, posted hi command upon Martin’s Island, where be will await reinforcements. The Tampa Peninsular of the 10th, mentions that two soldiers weie fired at near Fort Simon Drum on the 2d inst.. by about twelve Indians, but escaped without serious injury. Washington Monument —Speaking of the various delays in the work on this great national structure, the New Or leans Picayune says:—“ We have never had any fears that the monument would not ultimately be reared to the proposed height, and be fully completed accord ing to its design. Although it would be creditable to our own immediate day and generation to present it complete and finished to our posterity, yet there lias ever been in our minds something in the consideration that it is a work which generations might well bo trusted to carry on to perfection. Why should ours monopolize the glory of rearing it ! Let it rise liy the efforts of succes sivo posterities, all of whom will have the same interest in its elevation that we have.” Four of Dupont’s powder mills at Wilmington were blown upon the 15th. Three men were killed. -j/oiiecs.

April 5, 1356. 14 Holloway’s Ointment and Pills will Cure Asthma and all Disorders of the Chest —Henry Vincent, of Selma, Alabama, was al most a martyr to Asthma for nineteen years, which literally shook him to pieces, and made him as thin as a skeleton, so that he neither ei " joyed rest by night ox by day. He tried many things for the cure of this complaint, but they did uot benefit him. About three months ago, he commenced taking Holloway’s Pills, and well rubbing the Ointment into the chest night and morning. Immediately he gave these remedies a fair trial, he was able to sleep at night. By persevering with them for only seven weeks* every sytnpt m < f Li> disorder left him. His friends who have not seen him for some time, now hardly know him, he has so wonderfully improved. 3~gjp**As a Spring and Summer Medicine, Carter’s Spanish Mixture stands pre-eminent above all others. Its singularly efficacious ac tion on the blood : its strengthening and vivify ing qualities ; ils tonic action on the Liver; its tendency to drive all humors to the surface, there by cleansing the system according to Nature’s own prescription ; its harmless, and at the same time extraordinary good effects, and the number of cures testified to by mail}' of the most respect able citizens of Richmond, Ya., and elsewhere, must be conclusive evidence that there is no humbug about it. The trial of a single bottle will satisfy the most sceptical of its benefits.— For sale by Bexj. G. Liddox, at the Book Store. BTN l*using Mothers. —Many ladies, while nursing, suffer from a sore and inflamed nipple, which is not only painful to themselves, but causes uneasiness to the child, whose heated, irritated gums inflict increased suffering upon the distressed but patient, parent; this afflictive state of things, may be remedied by a moderate application ofthe “ Balm of Thousand Flowers,’* which will allay the inflamalion, and render de lightful and painless the most important function of maternal love and duty. Thousands of young mothers have been cured by the “ Balm,” of in flamation in the breast, sore nipple, caked milk, and other accidents incidental to a nursing time.

The annexed statement of Prof, A. A. Jlayes, M. D., State Assayer, is ample testimony of the scientific manner in which this medicine is com pounded, and recommends it to Professional Men, asicorthy a fair trial in their practice: — An opinion having been asked for of me, in consequence of the formula for preparing Oxy genated Bitters being known to me, I express the following, in form: The composition of these Bitters includes those medicinal substances which experienced physi cians have long resorted to for special action on the system, when deranged by Fevers, Dyspep sia, Agues, and General Debility, rosulting from exposure or climate inlluencc. These arc rendered permanent, and remain active, in this preparation, as a consequence of the scientific manner in which they are combined. It was a well founded inference, that the pre paration, used in larger or smaller doses, would prove a valuable General Medicine, which expe rience has demonstrated. In this medicine, no metallic salts can be found, by the most delicate chemical tria.s. Respectfully A. A. Hayes, M. D, Assayer to the State of Massachusetts?
