I’lease publish, and oblige, respectfully yours, James M. Cross, 5 Bowling Green. March 17 th, 1856. The Nicaragua Line is withdrawn for the present, in consequence of the difficulties in that country growing out of the extraordinary conduct of Gen eral Walker, in seizing or taking by force the pro perty of American citizens. I deem it a duty 1 owe to the public, to the coun try and the Transit Company, to remain quiet by letting the ships of the Company He at the wharves until our Government has sufficient time to exam ine and look into this outrage committed upon their property. In the meantime, as Ido not con sider passengers or the property of American citi zens safe on the transit of the Isthmus, I cannot be instrumental in inducing either to take the pas sage. C. Vanderbilt. March 17 tli. From Washington. Washington, March IT. Ina letter dated March 3, 1855, (Jen. Scott sends a letter to Paymaster- General Larned a memoranda, asking payment in ■ accordance therewith. Gen. Larned to Gen. Scott, the same day, in forms him that lie (Postmaster Larned) cannot do so, owing to important questions involved. Gen. Scott to Secretary Davison the subject. Secretary Davis to Gen. Scott, in reply, in which he says: “ The resolution conferring the rank of Lieuten ant-General is one of the most limited character. The grade is revived, not to he tilled like other grades, hut for the purpose of being conferred as an acknowledgment of (last services, rendered in a war expressly designated, and the authority con ferred is so limited that when once exercised, it is gone forever.” Mr. Davis, however, then applied to the Attorney j General for his opinion on the subject. Gen. Scott, ; meanwhile, learning by rumor that a Treasury j functionary at Washington had captiously suggesi- | ed that his claim might be rejected on the ground i that the statute originally creating the rank of Brevet Lieutenant General had been repealed, on- j deavored to anticipate that suggestion in Mr. Da- 1 vis’s mind by another statement, fifteen days later than the one previously sent. Mr. Davis replies, saying: “ In regard to the confluence which you express with regard to tho claim, it is proper to apprise you that I have not come to the same conclusion, and hence the necessity of a reference to the At torney General.” The documents comprise the opinion of eminent counsel sustaining Gen. Scott’s views as to pay, together with a long written argument of the At torney General, with the President's sanction of the same, Ac., and Gen. Scott’s receipt of $lO,- 405 as awarded under the decision of the President. (Jen. Scott to Paymaster Gen. Larned, Nov. 6th, I last, says: “ I have learned that Mr. Secretary Davis with held from the Attorney General every point spring ing from the face of the accounts themselves, and substituted a leading question, in bar of all com pensation whatever —namely, whether there is in i force any law fixing the compensation. The Sec ! retary retained them in his own hands, and after | another delay of more than nine weeks, has ob tained from the President a decision against the double rations, and the higher rate of forage to in v loss of about $3,000 per year. The Secretary of War, in communicating these documents, says : “ The greater part of the corres pondence is not within the scope of the resolution calling for information, and therefore cannot be properly extracted.” The suppressed papers, it is supposed, embrace a fierce epistolary conflict be tween these distinguished gentlemen. A mass of documents were transmitted to the House to-day, in compliance with the resolution calling for the correspondence between the Secre tary of War and Lieut. Gen. Scott relative to the pay of the latter as Lieutenant-General. Washington, March 15. —The agent of the As sociated Press at Washington takes pleasure in correcting any injurious impressions which may have arisen against Mr. Charles by the affray on Sunday last, at the National Hotel, by stating that lie has seen letters from every gentleman present and others aware of the encounter, completely ex honorating him from all blame, and expressing the opinion that his whole action in the matter was in self-defence. He has also seen a very com plimentary letter from the lady boarders of the house, inviting Mr. Mahen to continue his visits. The simple fact of Mr. Mahen never having beeu introduced to Mr. Stuart, uud has yet to speak the 1 first word to him, is a sufficient corroboration of the above. Washington, March is.—The night train from Richmond for Washington, on the Richmond and Washington railroad, ran off the track this morn ing. The locomotive was nearly demolished, but no other injury was done. Boston, March 18. A tire occurred this morn ing in Commerce street, in a building occupied by Messrs. A. & H. Jacobs, Door, Proctor & Co., Yater A Drake, Noreross, Nellen & Co., Bridge, Gould A Co. and others. The losses amount to upward ot $60,000. Washington, March 17. —The British govern ment, having through Mr. Crumpton extended to this government cordial congratulations on the safe return of Dr. Kane and his gallant associates, and wishing to confer some token of thankful ness on the naval officers thus engaged, ask per mission of the executive for that purpose. As the i power to give permission rests with Congress, the correspondence between Mr. Crampton and Mr. Marcv has taken that direction. |9 lO COFFEE.—Hon bags prime and choice 16 Rio COFFEE, in store, and for sale low, bv mhl# HAND, WILCOX A CO. ' The Heart’s Guests. When age has cast its shadows, O’er life’s declining way, And the evening twilight gathers Round our departing dav, Then we shall sit and ponder On the dim and shadowy past; Within the heart’s still chambers The guests will gather fast. The friends in youth we cherished Shall come to us once more, Again to hold communion, As in the days of yore. They may be stern and sombre, They may be bright and fair, But the heart will have its chambers, The guests will gather there. How shall it be my sisters, Who, then, shall be our guests ? How shall it be, my brothers, When life’s shadow on us rests ? Shall we not, ’midst the sileuce, In accents soft and low, Then hear familiar voices, And words of long ago! | Shall we not see dear faces, Sweet smiling as of old, ’Till the mists of that still chamber Are sunset clouds of gold, When age has cast its shadows O’er life's declining way, And the evening twilight'gathers Round our departing day!
