NO. 5653. MORNING EDITION.---- HIGHLY INTERESTING INTELLIGENCE FROM Nicaragua and the Musquito Territory. Attack on a Musquito Town bya Party of Americans. THE DESTRUCTION OF THE VILLACE OF QUAMWATLA, The Course of the British, Blo, Bie, die. ‘We have received, by the arrival at this port of the brg Marian Gage, Capt Read, from Belize, Honduras, whence she sailed on the 220 ult., and also by the British West India mails, some highly interesting intelligence from Nicaragua and the Mosquito territory. The advices from the Mosquito territory are pro- bably the most exciting, because they bring to us, for the first time, the intelligence of an attack, eaily in September, on one of the Indian towns, and its total destruction, by a party of Americaas, wrecked on the coast. Our correspondent at Belize, in detailing this af- fair, states that it has created some excitement there, and that the Mosquito King aud the English agents were taking affidavits, and collecting ex parte information, for transmission to Eaglaad, for use, probably, in the coming “sharp correspon- dence” between the Englich and American go. ‘vernments, m reference to the navigation of the San Juan. Among the passengers in the Marion Gage, is R- D. Pitcher, Esq., who was engaged in the attack on the Moequito town. Our Nicaragua correspondence throws a flood of light on the affairs of thar eonntry, and the policy pursued there by the American, as well as the Eog- lish, government. Altogether the news is important. Although about two very small nations, the occurrences nar- rated may lead two powerful countries into serious trouble.
