CftLlUßlh. Fill DAY. APRIL T.IW9, Foreign Rclaiioasbhlgs Ordered. The Diplomatic relations of tbift <loveruuict with that of Control A roerica are afcraming a com plicated nature, and present an is#uo of difficult adjustment. Suspicion attaches to the Admini* tration that too much confidence has been placed in the protestations or friendship on the part of Uar Mpeaty's Minister, #ir Was Oew Owrtey. who Ixae intervened to defeat the ratification of the Cass- Irisarri treatr, and the protection of American interests in Central America. The •tore suspicion, however, unattended by a sup ported allegation, by no means proves the dupli city of oar government in settling her diplomatic affairs. The question Is not yet definitely as certained that the British Minister has succeeded in gaining the ascendency of his government in Centra! America in the face of the American con fltruotioa of the 6tayton Btilwer treaty, and that in the convention concluded by him with M. Martinet no provision is made for the cession *f the Mosquito protectorate. Hut were it true, it doe* not follow that a misunderstanding should exist between this Country and Great Britain.— The object of Sir Uora Ousley’s mission to Central Aw-rioa was to settle the question of the respec tive rights of the two Countries. Great Britain having already ceded to Nicaragua the country along the Eastern coast known as the Mosquito Kingdom, and to Honduras, the Bay Islands, thereby acknowleding the American interpret* Uonof the Clayton-Bulwer treaty, it would he an agt of had faith on the part Sir Gore Ouslsy to in sist. upon a British ascendency over those in tea It. Lord Dsrhy has already declared that Great Britain “has no interest whatever in Centra) America, bey oud that of possessing a free transit across the Isthmus, which the United tiUte* hav© ■aver disputed.” And Lord John Kusaeli said : “With regard to Central America, I am glad to nee the course which the Government have taken. This phan tom King of Mosquito may, I hope, tie said to have disappeared, and we nhali run no risk of be log involved with that great Republic, the United H** l **! In any difference oanoerning the various tribes ocoopying Central America, who are uono of them worth the lives of 6,000 British cr Ameri can, * M The English people cordially endorsed these sentiment!. In the face of these declarations, the hop# Is entertained that Great Britain will not insist up on a protectorate over these island* which she has long since abandoned. If so, our Govern - ment will demand that apology, which, according to late despatches from Washington the President has already demanded, in eoasonaure with her dignity and iudepondenoe. The Minister will have exceeded his instructions and placed his government in a position of having violated a solemn engagement. This, however, might be avoided by Great Britain under the pretence that the Clayton-Bulwer treaty had not been violated —that she bad never relinquished a protectorate over the Mosquito territory and Bay Islands.— Showing the utter uselesMiiensof that treaty and the necessity for its speedy abrogation by Congress. Late despatches from the seat of Government in farm our readers that the President has ordered •hP* to the Nicaraguan coast with a view to pro teet alleged indignities against ths life and prop arty of our citisens. In the event of a refusal to eomply with the pencahle demands of this gov ernment, and to indemnify our citisens for gross intuits and wrongs, then, Gen. Mirabau Lamar, our Minister, is directed to close negotiations with that country, and demand his passports. Greet Britain will then have an opportunity of giving that construction to the Clayton-Bulwer treaty held hy this government, or denying to tally such as interpretation of that instrument. fmkeiia the Mtelmlppl From extracts which ws publish to-day, we may infer that tbo valley of the Mississippi will be the scene, during the next several months, of disasters similar to those which abounded in that quarter in the Spring and eariy Hummer of last year- The work which has been done upon the Uvea hy the people in that section is all fresh and, ooniaquently, is poorly prepared for this trial of Us strength.

Herald, who is now travelling to Northern Africa, in n recent let Ur to bis paper, gives a full account of the Eng lish experiment of cotton-raising in that coun try. We annex some extract*, which will be matter of interest, at least to our southern rea ders : Tuis ta, (Barbary .State,) don. 16, 1860. You know England 1* just now making strenu ous effort to grow cotton on her own hook. 11-r present abject dependence upon the Southern States of America lor that important staple, coup led with her loud profession of hostility to slavery, places her in the rather equivocal position ot be ing, in spite of herself, virtually one of tin* strong est backer* of an institution ah#offset* o cordial ly to hate. To escape, if possible, from this de pendence, she has set t> work to plant, cotton fields iu ludis, nad portions of Northern and Western Africa. An association in Manchester, obtained some twa year* ago, a grant oflnml from the Bey of Tunis, for the purpose of trying the expert meat of cotton -growing —an experiment which has since been prosecuted with tin* energy for which the Briton is so distinguished The necessary arrangements were made, agents were sent out to Africd to set the enterprise in mo tion, and some eighteen months ago the fir*t crop was planted. The tract of country selected is some fifteen miles west of Tunis, in the heart of u level and exten sive plain. It is watered by a considerable river, whose waters if it shall lie found necessary, can be used for the irrigation of ths soil during the dry season. Many difficulties were of course, en countered in tlie beginning. The country ws-wild, and the Inhabitants were comparatively barbarians It was difficult to get laborer*, and those who wore employed were la/y and ignorant of the work required. Thu Arabs round about! are egregious thieves, who stole all they could lay hands on, and even threatened the personal safety of the white superintendent. Through a blunder, or something worse, tbo seed failed to arrive until the season was far advanced. The ground wa#, however, prepared, and something like a thousand acres planted the first year. At first it promised well, but dry weather Hotting in sooner that usual, and the season characterised, it is said, hy some other unfavorable characteristics, the crop proved a fail ure. Home seven bales only were harvested. This, J am informed, is of fair quality, though by no means equal to the best or even second best of onr southern cotton. Most of it is moreover stain ed like tbo Egyptian cotton, and, would there for* be quite worthless for the more delicate tab rics. The association, by no menus discouraged hy the failure of ia*t year, have planted ft second crop, using, I believe, different seed, and some what curtailing the amount of ground. The ex perience of a year hH taught them how to avoid many difficulties, und they profess, some whut confidently, to bo able to give a better account of themselves next year. The difficulty, however, of obtaining the right kind of plows; of comman ding reliable labor, the long drought of summer, and the incessant rains of winter, render the suc ooss of the enterprise, to say the leoal, dubious. After stating that the management of the nlan lat ion is in the hands of a former eitir.cn of Lou isiana, named Rose. wh<> hud spent many years in tbo busbies* on Red River, the writer goes on to glvs sonio of the difficulties in- hn> had to en counter ns follow*: Mr. Rose lifts of course had runny difficulties to encounter, since coming here. Ignorant of the Iwnguage and customs of the country -surround ed by dishonest mid unscrupulous men compel led to guard the interests of his employer* against the rupacity at ontoe of the Arab mob, and the Government officers- -annoyed in a thousand way* by a people who looked with distrust, if not with indignation, upon the Introduction of Eu ropean enterprises into their midst —his position has been such n* few men would covet. Nor is this all. lie finds the fAeoriss of his employers constantly opposed to hi*’experience as u practi cal cotton grower.

APRIL 11. ISMk Tjtt’ A Hedged *'Bargain*’ beluroa Meaai* Uhb, Lumpkin aud Brown The Southern Confederacy, at Atlanta, has made a grare and aerious charge against Gov.

Cobb for tho Preaidency. We a#e loth to believe that Gov. Brown ha# entered into any #ueh arrange ment. We do not believe him capable of such du plicity and lolly. There wo# no inducement for him to make #uch a bargain. He wa# in no dan ger whatever of defeat from the opporition of Judge Lumpkin or Gov. Cobb, or any other per ■ou or party. Hi* personal and political antece dent# aud predilection# would lead him altogether in a different direction.

Brown to recon cile aud remove it, if it could be don© by honor able means. That a meeting did take place be tween Gov. Brown and Judge Lumpkin, and a few mutual friends, in Dalton, a# stated by the Con/edcrmctf, is doubtleas true. At whoa© instance the interview wo* held, is wholly immaterial, nor do we know.

A recon f iliation took placo—Judge Lumpkin became sat isfied that he. had been misinformed as to the comhict of Gov. Bruwu, and that be has no cause of grief or quarrel with him. He agreed to bury the batcbct,au*i to act os became a mau of honor and (rue Democrat, and support Gov.

Wo are assured upon the beit authority, and fully believe the assurance, that neither the Senatorial or Presidential questions were discuss ed on the occasion alluded to, or formed a part, either directly or indirectly, of the understanding entered into by the paitie*. In fai t Gov. Browu made nd pledges for or against any aspiraut for office in the State. He entered into no combina tion looking to th© Senatorial, Presidential or other election. Hi# only proinfee was that, in all political arrangement* and official dispensation*, it© would do justice to th© friend# of Judge Lump kin, ami would treat them a* li© would treat all other personal and political tricudfi and Demo crat*. To such a promise and such a course o© rcaosnn ble man eon object. It i* the duty of Gov.

That he wa* not only willing, but auxi ou*. to remove all ©au*© of di*tra#t and dissati*- taction from the minds of Judge* Lauipkta and hi* friends toward- himself, personally, and bring them into hi* own support of the Democratic Party in the approaching < anvaas for Governor, was natural and laudable.

That he ho* pledge*! hiutcclf to support Gov. Cobb for th© harle#t*>ii Convention, w© have not the atigbtett idea.
