Our People and Nicaragua.
Ihe departure of two numerous expeditions
irom New Orleans and New York, last week,
to join lien. Walkers army in Nicaragua, un
mistakably indicates flic current sympathy of
the people of the United States. We arc in
formed by the New Orlean papers, that the
lecruits by the Charles Morgan were not mere
idle stragglers or reckless adventurers, l;ut
voung men of character and energy, who go
..it with a firm determination to work out their
fortunes in Central America. These men rep
re ent truly the popular judgment of thiscoun
try. which holds the new Government of Ni
■ rrtguain higher estimation than that tissign
to it by the repulsive conduct of the nations
v ith which it lias vainly attempted to estab
lish peaceful relations. Our people do not un
derstand the argument by which all the prcce
ent revolutionary governments of tho Central
American States have been decided to be “le
itimate” and worthy of recognition, and Iti
<alone denounced as illegitimate and un
worthy because ho happened to bo aided by
• une of our own citizens in establishing his
rlaims to the Presidency. They do not com
prehend tho nice official distinction which has
heretofore readily accorded relations of amity
and correspondence to the thousand and ono
evolutionary leaders who have from time to
iine u surped power in Mexico and the Central
nd South American States, but which shrinks
with horror snd disgust from the proffered
uiendly hand of the now President of Nicara
gua, because in his cabinet and at the head of
ttia forces in the field North Americans exor
isc authority and influence. Neither does the
repugnance of our Government to that of Ni
caragua dampen the ardor or abate the inter
est of our people in behalf of efforts to spread
our institutions throughput the New World. —
That Walker’s enterprise, if permanently suc
cessful, must redeem Nicaraguaand other Cen
tral American States from their condition of
Kuni-barbarisni and almost brutish indolence
md ignorance, is too palpable to be doubted
ven by his bitterest enemies. The common
interests of humanity unite with those of the
people of tho country iu demanding that this
great, change for the better should be cousum
mtod and firmly established. The day hae
never been, when a besotted, ignorant and infe
rior race could maintain rank among the na
tions of the earth and shut out. from the pale
of civilization a territory which, under the do
. eloping genius of intelligence and energy and
the benign influences of peace and commerce,
could be made to act an important part in the
world’s great drama of busy life and human
progress. Cither they must themselves emerge
from the state of barbarism, indolence and in
testine commotion, which unfits them for tho
proper performance of their duties to the hu
man family, or a stronger and more civilized
mce will stop into teach them the proper use
of their “talents” and capacities. Thus it has
ver been, is now, and must always be with
nations; and the Colossus of the Western
World can hardly look with longer indifference
upon the sanguinary broils and interminable
•oniraotions which threaten to retard forever,
without tho intervention of our people, the
civilization and progress of the petty states of
i lie American continents.
The failure of our Government through Us
officials to arrest these expeditions indicates, we
think, a relaxation of its former watchfulness
r zeal. Whether this change of policy is the
result ofa conviction that its former course
vas carrying the obligation of neutrality to .a
logree unjust to our own citizens, or whether
it indicates mitigated opposition to the new
Government of Nicaragua, it is a gratifying
• videnco of tin fact t’ * tho spirit of our peo
ple i fill rise superior international etiquette
or old fogy diplomacy. when the fate of their
countrymen or the cause of true civilization
,nd progress is iuvolved.
Assured that similar expeditions in aid of
..nr countrymen in Nicaragua will follow each
other in rapid succession, we await the issue
of tho eontliet in that quarter with interest aud
confidence.
The Kansas Freesoil Memorial,

Senate of the United States a memorial from
the Freesoilcrs of Kansas, asking admission
into the Union as a State under their bogus
constitution, it was at once referred to the
Committee on Territories; but on considera
tion, and it being alleged that the signatures
to the constitution were not written by the
pretended signers, but were transcripts (so

trument in an indictment against the parties),
t reconsideration of the reference was moved
and carried by a vote of 32 yeas to 0 nays, aud

•■ls thou lias a truth to utter,
Speak ! and leave the rest with God I
Kill rmi Jiaji.v Sr.s : —A Ur: That our ( tty
Council lms been oppressive no collator ot tacts
cun deny. Onr citizens, for the benetit ot
home enpitulistsand distant corporations, have
quietly submitted to and promptly paid enor
mous taxes. They have allowed the beuutitu
common of the city to become depots for the
Bailroads, instead of walking and pleasure
ground for their exliilei’ation. They have al
lowed the silly whim of persons to bo satisfied
by having nil the shade mid native growth
trees on the banks of our own beautiful river
to be removed, and immense washes with their
yawning mouths to cat far into the streets and
commons. All legislation seems intent on
stripping the city of all its pristine beauties,
and its citizens of homo allurements, which
make n city a constant home for its denizens.
All this has been done, and no successful
move has ever been made to have a City Park
for the common welfare of our people. And
as our Council has taken the moral training
and, we may almost say, the religious Care of
our people into charge, we have a jast.right to
enquire why our physical wants have been
neglected.
AVe do dissent in into from having our city
fathers copying with most singularpreciscuess
the blue laws and hypocritical code adopted
by that part of the world indelibly branded
“yankedom.”
1 tell you, Mr. Editor, the people do not
chose officers to become persecutors, and these
favored few should bear iu mind that whilst in
their official dignity and high place,
“A ?ratli cun unmake them as a brenth hu* made!”
Now, let me enumerate a few instances out
of a myriad how unequally the city ordinances
operate on the governed:
The person who is so situated by fortune as
to live without labor can have his own barber
and throw himself back in his luxurious chair
and enjoy that luxury of a good shave or
shampoo, whilst the poor laborer, who has to
toil from morning’s light to candle-light for his
bread, has to eschew his privilege to be shaved
by a barber on a Sabbath morning.
Those who delight in the use of a good cigar,
and the proper use of which none can oppose,
have no feelings of regard for those officials
who forbid them purchasing a good Havana
when they desire to do so. Now we all know
that when people were far better in the way
of health and wisdom and length of years—in
the days of our grand f'athers-and mothers—
the pipe sent up snow-white curls of smoke
before they partook of their meals, and as wc
might say before family prayer ; and this too
on the Sabbath as well as the rest ol’ the week.
But in our city nothing has to be sold in the
way of cigars, poor devils will have to betak*
themselves to the pipe (whose offensiveness
nearly equals certain city ordinances) in place
of the fragrant cigar. In truth, the loss of a
good cigar, even on the Sabbath, is more se
verely felt bj r the would-be consumer than
they who deal them out for pay. AVe can view
it in no other light than it is the disposition of
the Council to intermeddle uselessly with the
domestic rights and pleasures of the citizen,
and then we oppose it because the law has a
very “small potato” look about it. Such daws
only exhibit a narrowness of mind unsuited to
aldermanic station. AVe do trust that, for the
common sense, the authors of it will
repeal it, and “go and sin no move.”
AA'e now come to the bar-rooms. They pay
a license of large amount to the city. They
are needful things, for men will drink ; and
instead of the jug being a part of the delf at
home, let the tapster deal it out. AVe are op
posed to drunkenness, every day. Why give
licenses to retail, if they are the objects of
aversion ? AVhy take the retailers’ money and
pay it out for interest on railroad stock, which
is afterwards sold at a loss to the city ? AVhy
not close the drug-stores which sell on the Sab
bath ?
But we do wish to see justice equally me
ted out to all men. AVe are opposed to any
persons seeking the support of liquor dealers
and imbibers when they endeavor to suppress a
traffic not repugnant to our State Constitution,
though it may be to those who desire to make
a show of sanctimonious regard for their fel
low beings. Let all such follow the illustrious
Father Mathew, who endeavored to do good
only by example and persuasion, not like Beech
er temperance men, by force. Henry AVard
Beecher was once the great Light of Prohibi
tion, but now the donor of Sharpe’s rifles to
abolitionists. Heaven guard us from his like.
We could say more, but we do say the Coun
cil has had no business to legislate on these
matters now. even if at nil’ until all houses of
ill-fame had been driven from the city; the
city wharves well repaired ; tho city well sup
plied with good water; fewer subscriptions
made to corporations for the ultimate benetit
of private individuals; our court house square
beautified as it should be; and a true and con
sistent working aim to make our city not the
constant prey of fortune-seekers, but a happy
home for its people. A Citizen.

i losophically remarks :
“ My humbugs were gotten up more for the

immense sacrifice in order to pay my private
i debts, and thus they get nothing from my es
tate, aud 1 lose all.
) “ 1 have no ambition to “try again,” for
what is the use, when *400,000 are hauging
i over my head I can always earn my living,

The Chinese Potato.
A new esculent, knowit ns the •• lgnama,”
ir Chit esc Potato, lias been introduced into
France, which by some writers is regarded as
more nutritious than the potato now in use.—
It has long foriueu an important article of iood
among the people oi China and Japan, and the
satisfactory experiments which scientific men
have instituted in France to test its properties,
induce us to believe that it is well deserving
of extensive cultivation. According to the
Philadelphia North American, the French ex
perimentalists speak of it with enthusiasm.—
M. Dte'iisne, who has charge of the depart
ment’*'''? Cultivation in the Museum of Natural
History, .-ays :
“ Tit.: t no plant which it has been attempted
to substitute for the potato, for several years
past, can be compared with tiie ignama. It
lias been domesticated in China from time im
memorial. Its root is large and rich in nutri
tive matter. It may be eaten without cooking
as a fruit. < Iritinny cooked without any trou
ble, both by boiling and roasting. It is, iu
plain words, bread for the eater, with as full
a title as the common potato. VVe have, he
adds, the firm conviction that the Chinese po
tato wild just us the common potato did, in
creasc the wealth of many and diminish tlic
misery and suffering of more, and that this
useful t xotic will lot meet with the same ob
stacles and repugnance to its adoption which
were experienced for more than two centuries
by the common potato.
“ Experiments instituted by M. Eroiny,
chemical professor at the Museum, lead to the
belief r iat this root may also be employed iu
making bread. It can be reduced to a fine
paste, similar to that made of wheat flour.—
The taste of the tubcrcules, boiled or roasted,
is that vs the first qualify of potatoes; and its
cooking takes about half the time. Another
advanUge it possesses, is that it can be kept,
without lisle, from one year to another, and
even longer, without sprouting, and without
danger from the heat or cold. It is said to be
of very easy culture, and to be exceedingly
productive—about double as great as the po
tato. It has succeeded well both in France
and Algiers, so that there is no difficulty to be
anticipated ns to its acclimation in onv coun
try.”
Tho “Prairie Chief.”
fke hhicramento (California) Journal gives
an interesting account of a noted wild horse
which has recently been captured iu that vi
cinity. ‘i lie animal was know nas the “Prai
rie Chief,” or wild horse of Yolo, and is con
sidered the best native trotter in the State,
and the most enduring animal perhaps in any
country. He had baffled for years the repeat
ed attempts to capture him, although every
method that ingenuity could devise and man
execute was tried years ago. More than forty
horsemen, mounted on the very flower of the
ranches, pursued him time again, often run
ning him from sun to sun, and occasionally
hunting him on the second day, when he prov
ed as fresh as on the lirst; and never, until at
last captured, even when hottest pursued, was
seen t> break into a gallop. Trotting, be
could run around most horses galloping. Once
he was decoyed by means of other horses into
a corral, but on perceiving the snare he at
once bounded clear by several feet the bristling
posts of the corral, A reward of $1,500 was
once offered for him, and he was, after several
attempts, driven into a narrow pass and las
soed, but he snapped the lasso in an instant
and escaped.
The last organized attempt to secure him,
howev or, succeeded, and the noble animal was
robbed of tbe freedom lie had so long and gal
lantly contended for. A party of thirty per
sons, well mounted, assembled at the place
where he was known to be grazing, which was
along a range of hills on the west bank of the
Sacramento. A few of them, in the morning,
drove him to the mountains, when he was com
pelled to turn back upon the plains, where the
rest of the party, scattered in squads for a
distance of thirty miles along the country,
dashed at him by turns, and thus run him at
his lull speed back and forth to the mountains,
and up and down the plains, until he was com
pletely jaded and worn, and at dark they were
enabled to lasso and capture him. Thus did
this wonderful horse run (or trot rather) the
entire day without amoment’s breathing time.
At the close, when closely pursued, he broke
into a gallop. It is estimated by those who
know the ground well, that he traveled from
160 to 170 mil’s. He is a gray horse, with a
darkish mane and tail, about fourteen hands
high, and is believed to be about fourteen
years old, and is, withal, very tierce.
A Serious Charge Against the United
States.
The Liverpool Times of March loth says
that the “group of unsettled questions’” to
which the American Minister referred iu his
Londoti speech, is increasing—
“ For the Brazilian mail this week brings an
account of occurrences connected with the
slave trade which are sure to complicate our
relations with the United Slates without any
superfluous ‘thunder from Printing House
Square. It appears that an organized conspi
racy baa been arranged at Boston aud New
York for fitting out slavers to supply the Bra
zil market with negroes from the coast of Af
rica, and recently r., slaver, manned by an Am
erican crew, aud sailing under the American
flag, has been captured and condemned by tho
Brazilian Government under circumstances
which leave no doubt of tlio fact that this hor
rid traf ic has received a fresh stimulant in the !
ports of the American Union. A British crui
ser and an American ship-ol'-war were nearly
coming into collision off Brazil respecting this
iugitivc slaver. All these circumstances are j
caloula ed seriously to embarrass the present i
misund ;rstanding_ between this country and ,
the United States.’
The .'irnes surely cannot have read the ac
counts trotn llio Janeiro correctly. The trou
ble between the English and Americans there :
was on account of a Yankee clipper whom the ‘■

The War.
The Richmond Enquirer thus sums up the
results of the European war:
•• I'o Bum up results: Sardinia, alter ex
hausting its credit, is dismissed with a repri
mand lor its impertinent interference ; the Ot
toman Empire in Europe is overthrown, and
l urkey has become the prey of its protectors;
Great Britain has been outwitted in the cabi
n®l. dishonored in the field, and degraded
from its proud position among the nations of
Europe: France has monopolized all the ma
terial advantages and military glory of the
war, and is now indisputably the foremost
Power: Russia is just what it was before, not
diminished in its resources, not disparaged in
character, nor curbed in its ambition, but. full
of young life, irrepressible energy, and confi
dence in its own great destiny.”
