Nothing is said, it is true, in the Min- j -vr's letter, about the time the nxonev should be { .' i; it shows that this is left for the Republic to ; determine.

London, Feb. 10, 1356. .'.nor Don Juan Rafael Mora, San Jose de Costa Rica. Much esteemed sir and friend : The mail wjjieh , brings the correspondence jof January Ist, from j i' ista Rica, has not arrived, and in consequence 1 ;i.ne nothing to sav to you in regard to mercantile j business. As to public matters you will please | refer to my communications of to-day, to the Min- j ..-ter By this you will see that this Government willing to put two thousand muskets at my dis- ! sal for the service of the Republic of Costa iliea. Nothing is said in the note about the time ; f payment. However, I have not made up my ; miai to take them previous to receiving instruc ts from you, or which of the two kinds of arms take, in case 1 should take them previous to i ur being able to write upon the subject, I will ■ nd them in the month of March, if a vessel -ids forPunta Arenas, without further orders from ; 1 have not vet replied officially to Lord Claren don to offer him my most sincere thanks, in my j nt name, and that of the Republic, for his mani festation of sympathy and friendship for Costa Rica: and though the affable manner in which Lord Clarendon spoke to me, when 1 bid him fare- ' well, almost induced me to believe he would uot ; r fuse the muskets, I will not deny the pleasure 1 felt on the receipt of Mr. Hammond’s letter. I aid not sleep at all that night for joy. 1 sent him a mite on the following day, stating that I would ad dress an official note to Lord Clarendon, conveying my thanks, and that in the meantime 1 entreated him to send me permission from the War Depart m?nt to examine the two kinds of muskets, so as j ' as srtain which 1 should take for the Republic. All this is very good, hut I don’t like the intelii- I genee from Nicaragua, where, it seems, Walker is establishing himself, firmer and firmer, every day. 1 cannot understand how the other States did not unite themselves from the beginning to expel him from Nicaragua. I have letters from tiuateinala and San Salvador, requiring me to re quest from this Government help and and succor ; hut what can he done for Republics or people who is n't make an exertion to help themselves? When I was telling Lord Clarendon that Costa Kica already had an army of eight hundred men on the frontier of Nicaragua, he w as much pleased, and said "that was a right step," an l 1 uni per- • mladed that my having made that insinuation, is 1 one of the reasons for giving tis the muskets. The questions pending between this country and | tiie United States are very complicated, but there will be no war; for this reason, that the gentle- | men in the great Republic observe that although : the British nation do not boast or sav much on 1 the subject, they are determined to punish the Vankees very severely for the least insult to the national honor. To the eyes of the whole world— i of this country in particular a war between the j two nations would he one of the worst of evils; but to Central America the case w ould he very dif ferent, as Walker and his associates would soon bo kicked out of Nicaragua. I send to the Government a copy of the Times, j ' in which is found a lettei from Mr. Marcv to the ( ! American Minister to Nicaragua. Though this I letter appears to censure the Minister, and holds out a threat to Walker, the true sense is, that in a : short time the Government of the United States will s . n recognize Walker's Government. May trod help us. Yours, Ac., E. Wai.ueustein. M.vwacbb at Panama.—Perhaps the following ! extract from the “ U. S. Naval and Astronomical r n... ditii.n,” by Lieut. .1. M. Gillis, A.

We presume the transaction it discloses is the same detailed iu the Atlanta In telligencer, and copied by us. The whole affair is ! odorous of fraud on the part of the Bank, and richly deserves the condemnation of every hon est man. After this disclosure, on what ground can the managers of the Merchants’ and Planters’ Bank rest a hope that its bills can obtain a circu lation in Georgia, or its privileges as a Banking Institution be tolerated by the people? s . „ „ Dalton, Mav 1 1856. James Gardner, Esq.— Dear Sir : I presented at the counter of the Merchants and Planters’ Bank of Dalton, Ga., 29th of April last, £IOOO, in bills of thai bank for payment, and handed the bills to Mr Thom pson, the Cashier. He counted the bills upon the counter, and then picked up about one half of them. At this time the Sheriff of Whitfield county came in behind me and snatched up the bills that were on the counter. The Cashier handed him the bills he had in his hands, and he levied upon the whole with an attachment in favor of Preston A Co. is. Lewis, for about ten thousand dollars. | informed the Sheriff the next dav that I would give him a replevy bond and take the bills. He then, to prevent me from doing so, levied two other attachments upon the bills, making the whole amount of attachment £48,000, competing me to give a bond of $96,000 to get my SI,OOO out of his hands. All 1 can learn of this case is, that the bank through their agents loaned Lewis a sum ofmonev •the bills of the Merchants' and Planters' Bank of Dalton, without any interest, for the purpose of circulation. Lewis was to circulate them through the West, and was to protect the bank so that the bills should not come to the bank for redemption. Lewis put out the bills, and a few days afterwards they were returned to him for redemption. He re fused to lake them up. The bills were then sent back to Dalton. There was sent on an agent of Preston A Co. to this place, and asfast'asthe bills are presented at the counter, they are levied upon by the attachments. 1 have examined the attachments; they are is sued by a Justice of tliePeace, in the name of Pres ton A Co., bv their Agent, a Mr. Kkbbek. The only security is Mr. Thompson, the Cashier, who, I understand, does not own one dollar’s worth of property in the State; and the Justice who is : sued the attachments acknowledged to me that so : far as his knowlege of Mr. Thompson, he did not : known that he was actually worth one dime. I consider this a high handed measure, and would i advise all persons to look out. You can publish this ‘ statement if you see fit. yours, J. T. Kirk ham. ! From (he National Intelligencer, May‘2. Affairs in Nicaragua. The subjoined letter from General Walker, of Nicaragua, was read in the Senate yesterday, aud excited the more interest from its reference to | “British intervention” in behalf of Costa Rica. [General Walker to Senator Weller.] Grenada, April 15, 1856. j Ho i. John B. AVku.uk, U. S. Senate : My bear Sir: By the last napers from New York ! 1 learn that when T was denounced in the Senate for the conduct Nicaragua has pursued toward., the Transit Company, you were so generous as to undertake to defend me from the aspersions of men utterly ignorant of rav character. In conse- j ; quence of this, 1 lake the liberty of writing some j , facts in relation to affairs here, and the facts will, ! ‘ f think, prove not unimportant to the Government I of the United States. You have doubtless learned from the newspa- , pers how pacific was the policy Nicaragua propos ( ed to pursue towards the other States of Central , America. Notwithstanding all our overtures of , peace, the neighboring Government showed them- | selves, if not positively, at least negatively hostile to the actual administration of Nicaragua. It was j , constantly asserted, not only iiere, but throughout ' ; Central America, that the States were stimulated j to this conduct by English and French agents, i i But it was not until the correspondence of tin * Consul General of Costa Rica, in London, was in- j tercepted by me a few weeks ago, that'positive | , evidence was afforded of the active sympathy the j British Governments manifests for those who op- : . pose the Americans in Nicaragua. The corres- pondence shows that England is furnishing arm* j to our enemies, and at the same time the whole i j British West India squadron is sent t > San Juan j del Norte in order that the moral weight of tin ; English Government may be thrown into the scale against our Republic. j , I do not know how these facts may appear to j x the people of the United States, but to me they seem directly at variance with American princi- i j pies and American interests. These facts are pa- _ tent to all, aud their significance is apparent to | f the most superficial observer. There are other 1 circumstances connected with the present war I waging in this State and Costa Rica which may j require interpretation in order to make their ini- ( . portance felt. c The Government of Costa Rica has never yet t declared war against the Government of Nicara gua ; yet it has invaded our territories and has t murdered American citizens who have never for feited the protection of the United States Govern- | merit. This lias been done under cover of a de- ! , cree issued by the President of Costa Rica declar , iug war against the American forces in the ser- ! a vice of Nicaragua and not against Nicaragua her self, is to deny in the most positive and offensive : manner the right of Americans to engage in the j service of a foreign State. Not only has this do- j duration of war been made in this offensive anil i j unheard of manner, but another decree has been ! published, ordering all the American prisoners of i J, war taken by Costa Rican forces to be shot. This t is to deny to Americans engaged in a foreign ser- ( vice the common rights to which soldiers are en titled by the laws of war. Such decrees as those j ( I have mentioned, not only throw Costa Rica, as M conceive, beyond the pale of civilized nations, j ( but they directly affect the honor and dignity of j | the United States. I Thev i the Costa Ricans) attempted to control the j American people and keep them within a limit 1 which the American Government has never pre- j scribed. Costa Rica says Americans shall not cm- ; , igrate to Nicaragua and take arms in her service. ! { It remains to be seen whether she can sustain her- j . self in so singular a position. In such a war as | they arc now waging against us, there can be but [ one result. They may destroy my whole force—a 1 circumstance I deem almost impossible—they may j kill every American now in Nicaragua, but the ; I seed is sown, and not all the force of Spanish America can prevent the fruit from coming to ma 1 turitv. The more savage the nature of the war ( they wage against us, the more certain the result, 1 the more terrible the consequences. I may not ; live to see the end, but 1 feel that my countrymen j , will not permit the result to be doubtful. I know that the honor and the interests of the great coun try which, despite of the foreign service I am en gaged in, I still love to call my own, are involved in The present struggle. That honor must be jeal ously maintained. So far we have had great moral odds against us The Ooverninant to which we all naturally look for 1 aid and comfort has treated us with coldness and disdain. There has been |no Government to en- 1 courage us and bid us “God speed.” Nothing but our own sense of the justice of the cause we j are engaged in and of its importance to the conn- j trv of our birth, has enabled us to struggle on as far as we have done. We mat perish in the work we have undertaken, and our cause may be for a time hist. But if we fall, we feel it is iii the path !of honor. And what is life or what is success in comparison with the consciousness of having per formed a duty, and of having co-operated, no mat ter how slightly, in the cause of improvement and progress? I begin, however, to leave facts, and therefore will conclude. I remain, with high regard, your obedient ser vant, Wm. Walker. Gov. Rkedkr’s Appointmknt. —A gentleman in j Virginia calls our attention to the tact that the | enemies of President Pierce in the South lay pe j culiar stress upon his appointment of Governor | Reeder as proof of his willingness to favor Free- i soilers, and asks us whether, at the time of his ap pointment, Gov. Reeder was not regarded as a sound uaiional Democrat. It is in our power to answer this question with entire confidence, and to sav down to the time that Governor Reeder went to Kansas to assume the duties of Governor • of the Territory there had not been, so far as we ] i ever heard, or so far as the President j t ever heard, a breath of suspicion as to his i ■ mining Freesoil or Abolition sentiments. lie was j appointed under the strongest assurances that, he j was strictly and honestly a national man. We are j i able to state, further, oil very reliable authority, ! that whilst Gov. Reeder was m Washington, at I the time of his appointment, he conversed with j j southern gentlemen on the subject of slavery, and ■ i he assured them that he had no more scruples in j 1 buying a slave than a horse, and he regretted that ' he had not money to purchase a number of slaves j i to carrv with him to Kansas. We have under-! ! stood that lie repeated the same sentiments on his wav to Kansas. We will repeat what we have had occasion to sav more than once heretofore —that no man has ever been appointed by President ’ Pierce to office who was not at the time under stood bv him to be a faithful adherent of the Bal timore platform of 155"2 on the subject of slavery. If am- appointments were made contrary to this rule, it was done under a misapprehension as to the positions of the appointees. We may add that the evidences of Gov. Reeder s soundness were so strong that President Pierce was slower than many others to believe him a f reesotler alter h ■ had gone to Kansas. It is, therefore, the gross est injustice to refer to Gov. Reeder s appoint ment as proof of the President’s willingness to 1 favor Freesoilers.— Washington Vnnn, llAHßisßnto, May 1. —Aaron Coburn, a member i of the Legislature, who was charged with the lar- I ceny of State arms, was acquitted to-dav. Congressional. Washington, May 2.—Senate.— A message was received from the President of the United Htates transmitting a report of the Secretary of State with documents in relation to the settlement of the controversy withregard to the Lobos Islands; also, a message from the same, transmitting a let ter from the Post Master General and the corres pondence in relation to the mail transportation be tween Atlantic and Pacific possessions, in which the President commends the subject to the earlv consideration of Congress. Mr. Benjamin addressed the Senate on the Kan sas question. He said that for the third time with in the short history of our Republic had its inter nal peace been imperilled, and each tune the dis turbing element had been the same. In 1820, when it was endeavored to admit Maine into the Union and exclude Missouri, for the purpose of se curing harmony, the Missouri Compromise was agreed to ; but that did not answer the desired object. Scarcely had it passed, when it was broken by nearly every Western State; it was scorned, derided and repudiated. When, in 1850, the South proposed its extension to the Territory acquired from Mexico, that proposition was contemptuously rejected. When, in 1854, it was finally agreed to repeal in terms that which for more than a quarter of a century had ceased to have any active effect, that was made use of as a ground for vituperation towards the South. She was accused of violating her plighted faith, with very much the same regard for truth that has recently been observed here in the mendacious tales in regard to the affairs of Kansas. The policy of seeking for other compromises than those contained in the Constitution, was a mistaken policy on the part of the South, and he (Mr. B.) thanked Heaven that the South had at length be come aware of its mistake. She had no longer any compromises to offer or to accept. She would j adhere to the Constitution, and if its provisions should be violated to her injury, then she would ; calmly and resolutely withdraw from a compact, all the obligations of which she is expected scru pulously to fulfill, and from all the benefits of which she is iguominiously repulsed. He argued ; that the Constitution might be us plainly violated | by the abuse of the powers expressly conceded in it, as by the usurpation of powers not therein con : tained. lie contended that the crusade against i slavery on the part of the North was merely a ; struggle for power. A principal motive of the North to sustain the negro or Black Republican cause, was an ignorance of facts. They bad been so misled by a continuous per ■ version of the truth as to induce them almost to bate the white man of the South, and love the black man in preference. The graphic narrations ‘ of Uncle Tom's Cabin was preferred to history | and official statistics. In conclusion, he said, the Whig party was dis i solved, because a common cement was wanting; and lie said that whether right or wrong the bare : suggestion that the Senator from New York Mr. Seward,) was in favor of General Scott for the Presidency, was fatal to his success. The opposi tion of the Senator would have secured many Southern votes for General Scott which he failed to receive. Mr. Cass asked and obtained permission to ad dress the Senate, on Thursday next, in defence ot “ squatter sovereignty,” which had been assailed by Mr. Brown. Mr. Seward replied to Mr. Benjamin’s allusions to his political course. Mr. Hale, alluding to what he said, were grossly personal attacks upon him in Mr. Clay’s recent speech, remarked that he had but one word to .sub mit in reply: That it will take something besides malignity to redeem imbecility from contempt! Mr. Clay sprung to his feet, greatly excited, say ing: 1 defy the Senator’s malice us much ns I con temn his baseness. No man shall assail my rights or those of my constituents, and shirk his respon sibility by skulking behind a plea of non-combat- ’ anev. If he had been animated by those heroic ftelings which lie professes, he would not come upon this floor, and, under the protection of its i rules, seek immunity for his insolence. I know lie j is pleased by this attention. There are those of j his class who, like the London Attorney, Mark j Meddle, in the play, are ambitions of a kick. |Sen- j sation.l He concluded by remarking tlml he had nothing more to say to that Senator, having twice declined his acquaintance; and he asked pardon of the Sen ate for consuming so much time about a Senator who soils the carpet upon which he treads. Mr. Hale replied that he had never sought an introduction to him but once, and that was on pro fessional business for the benefit of a citizen of Alabama. Mr. Clay rejoined. He did not think his reputa tion for veracity would .suffer by conflict with one who had repeatedly eaten his own words. Mr. Hale replied that if he did cat his own words, he would have a more palatable meal than the Senator from Alabama, if he should undertake to eat his. (Laughter.) Adjourned to Monday. Hoist:.—Mr. Ritchie presented the memorial of Judge Irvin, of Pennsylvania, in response to the charges of the Pittsburg bar, against his official conduct, and asking an investigation. Referred to the Judiciary Committee. The private calendar was then taken up, and thirteen private bills were passed. The Committee of Conference on the part of the House, on the disagreeing amendments of the De ficiency bill, being unable to agree, a new Commit tee was ordered to be appointed, aud the House adjourned until Monday. From the Washington Union. A Pleasant Scene in the ('union. We translate from the Press? J'Orient the fol lowing letter, dated Woronzoff, describing the spectacle witnessed on the banks of the Teheruaya on the 14th of March, when the definitive signa ture of the armistice by the Allied and Russian Generals took place. The litter says: “The monotony of our existence has been dis turbed by a long-looked for event. Yesterday, March 14th, the armistice was signed. Up to that time all communications had been verbal. The lino of demarcation between the two armies is the Teheruaya. The stipulations of the armistice are now written and signed. “ Yesterday, then, a large French tent was pitch ed at the end of the Traktir bridge, on the left bank, 011 our own Territory. General Martimprey, chief of-the stall'of the French army, accompanied by the chiefs of the English and Sardinian stall's, repaired thither towards one o’clock. Almost at the same moment the chief of the Russian stuff ar rived. The interview lasted an hour and a half, and the Generals parted, interchanging cordial hand shakings and with evident marks of mutual esteem. “The scene was a peculiar one. The Russian General escorted by several platoons of Don Cos sacks, with their brilliant red uniforms and long lances. At a short distance, at the foot of the plain, a small column of infantry and cavalry was ranged in order of battle. On our side a detach ment of Zouaves, in line array, was placed near the tent, around which sentinels were posted. A large number of officers of all divisions of the four armies had arrived in the plain of the Tchernava, and literally covered both banks, every one in liis epaulets and with sabre at his side. There was a real fraternization between the two sides, and wo again witnessed an expression of those sympathies which we have so often remarked between the French and Russians. Several officers recognised one another, having met before in the armistices which occurred during the siege. So gourds and bottles began to fly I'rom’one bank to another, as bullets used to fly a little while ago. More than one fell into the water, but the greater part reach ed their destination safely. “ A brilliant young Russian officer, with his left arm iu a sling, was followed by two solders carry ing a heavy basket. ‘ Where are Ihe Zouave offi cers, gentlemeu ?’ demanded he. ‘This way,’an nounced several officers of the corps. 'lt is t"o on# ! of you,’ was the reply, ‘that I owe my wound ; j your very good health!’ and with his well arm lie 1 hurled, one afier another, three bottles of cliani i pange, which were emptied in a twinkling. The j Zouaves, in turn, sent back several bottles. Two 'of them were broken on the way. ‘Keep the I corks,’ was the cry; ‘tve will change them at 1 Paris!’ ‘At Paris!’exclaimed the Russian officers, amid immense applause. The champagne was choice. The Russians sustain their reputation for good taste. 1 have Jthree of the aforesaid corks; two of them bear the brand Ve Cliquot, one that of Lelegard & Co., and all three the name of the i city of Rheims. We interchanged our names, j anil among our foes was 11 nephew of General Lu | ders. | “Upon our right, in the rear, the scene was rnag ! nifieent. To the light were seen the Fedouchine mountains, covered with troops who had come i down en masse from their encampment—French, i English and Sardinians intermingled. Behind 11s i there was a like spectacle on the crest of the forti i Bed rampart which commands the valley and ; which rises bv degrees, by the Canrobert redoubt, till it reaches the plains of Inkermann. Every I arm was raised, caps were waved, and immense I hurrahs (lew from one bank to another, it was really a moving and exciting spectacle. “Add to all this that several English ladies cara- j coled to the end of the bridge, where their pre sence was hailed with cheers and all other demon strations. Some words were uttered by the eharm ; ing troopers. They were not perhaps those of civ j ilit v or of good taste ; they were perhaps those of badly expressed gallantry; but thev were piquant. | All heads were raised and everything went off , well. On the Russian side we saw oulv one lady, i and she was in a caleche drawn by two horses. , j She was said to be Madame Lttders, wife of the . commander-in-chief. The carriage advanced with . in the circle reserved for the stall' which accompa nied Gen. Tatehimoff, who was commissioned to treat with Gen. Martimprey. At half-past two , , o’clock the interview terminated. The Russian General remounted his horse; General Martim prey accompanied him to the end of the bridge, r followed by a numerous cortege of officers who bad accompanied him out ol curiosity. There | they finally parted. ’ BY TELEGRAPH. K. A. ABBOT, REPORTER, 70 wamTstreer, N. t.

Sudden Death.— We learn from Mr. Troutham, of Glennville, Alabama, while on a visit to this city, was sitting in the porch of Dr. Cleckley’s residence, on Thursday last, and while in the act of conveying a glass of water to his mouth his hand suddenly fell backwards and he appeared to be ill. On going to his assistance, he was found to he dead beyond recovery. Colunitrus Enquirer, Buy 3. The Prospectin' Kentucky. —The change of pub ! lie sentiment in Kentucky ( says the Yeoman) to wards the dangerous doctrines of Know Nothing ism. is aptly illustrated by the relative strength of the party presses. Just prior to the gubernatorial election last August the Know Nothing papers out numbered the Demeratic and anti-Know Nothing by a majority of eleven. Now the list stands: Democratic, nineteen; Know Nothing, nineteen; and independent or Whig, three. Within the past twelve months a number of Know Nothing papers have died for the want of support, and several Democratic presses have been established. These indications are definite ars to the result of the Pres idential contest in this State. Kentucky cannot and will not vote for the Know Nothing candidates. Washington Union. From the Correspondence of the Baltimore Sun. \\ AsiiiNGTON, May 2. —The decision of the Cabi net, upon the question of the reception of the new minister from Nicaragua, has not been made known. The new minister is in New York, but will not come to Washington uninvited, uor present him self an unwelcome applicant for recognition to Mr. Marcy. It is a question before the administration wheth er any and what notice shall be taken of the inter position by the British government in behalf of Costa Rica in the present conflict. There is noth ing in the Clayton-Balvver treaty which restricts either party from forming alliances, offensive and defensive, with any or all of the Central American States, still less from selling arms to either of them. The question for our own government to consider is, whether they shall imitate and go bevond the example of Great Britain, and after recognising the new government, proceed to afford it material aid. It will require no appropriation— no repeal of the neutrality laws to do this—as we have recent ly seen, in the fact that Walker is receiving rein forcements from New Orleans and other quarters, without the slightest hindrance from this Govern ment. The state of things at Panama calls for prompt action from this Government. We have a treaty with New Granada which hinds both Governments to protect the Panama transit. The Government of New Granada will of course be called upon to bring the persons who took part in the late riots and murders *o punishment, and to break up their den, which, as long as it exists, will threaten the safety of passengers on that route. lon.

He prefers To let others speak its praise, and therefore introduces the following certificates, from two planters, well and favorably known in the community in which they reside. He might in troduce many others, but the Plow Stock will speak for itself whenever examined JAMES B. MELL. Riceboro’, Liberty county, Ga. This is to certify that 1 have, with my own hands, j thoroughly tested the newly invented Plow Stock ot Janus B. Mell, Esq. Jn point of simplicity and t perfection, T have never seen or used its equal. In j it is combined every thing that 1 could wish in a : Plow Stock, and it, in my opinion, is the cheapest j and the best that has ever been offered to the pub- j lie. 1 speak from having used it with my own i hands. I was raised to follow the plow, and think ! that f know how one ought to run. 1 would cheer- ! fully thank any one, who will thoroughly try it, to ! point out to me one single fault in it. It is easier upon the horse and the plowman than any that I ! have ever used. The principle upon which you regulate the depth ! of the Plow is so simple, and yet so perfect, us to ' commend itself to any one; and the Stock is adapt- i ed to any kind of Plow Hoe. It is, moreover, just j as light as any could desire it to be. 1 would re commend to any and all, if they wish the best and j cheapest Plow Stock, without hesitation to get Mr. i James B. Moll’s. 1). W. Wilson. Pentield, Ga., April 15, 1856. In company with several others, I, this dav, wit- ! nessed the trial of Mr. James B. Moll’s Plow Stock, by Mr. D. \Y. Wilson, and cheerfully state that all j present were fully satisfied that it does everything as stated above. I would, moreover, state that 1 have been using them on my farm for several months, and every day serves to confirm me in the opinion of the superiority of Mr. Mell’s Plow Stock to all others now in use.
