ALEPORNT 4 DIAMONDS.—THIS NEW AND REAUTI = 9 = == - Reconstruction of the San Juan Territory Greytown Rising from its Ashes—Provisi- enal Government Formed—Colonel Kinney as Civil and Military Governer—Evidences of Progress. A little over twelve months ugo the town of Greytown, or San Juan del Nord, on the mouth of the Sen Juan river, in Central America, was a flourishing and rapidly increasing mart of commerce, being one of the chief en- trepots between California and the Atlantic States, and the point at which the Nicaragua Transit Company’s steamers transferred their passengers and freight to the flat bottomed boats by which the passage up the San Juan river is effected. The site of the town being claimed by two or three sovercign powers—Nicaragua Costa Rica, and the so called King of the Mosquito Coast —the diapute was compromised by the tacit setting aside of all their claims, and the erection of an independent municipa) government, the promanent members of which were Americans, with a small sprinkling of Briciahers. As the town iacreased in importance, the pretensions of its government increased also, and so far as these pre- tensions ¢lashed with the interests of the Nicaragua Transit Company, they met in {t decided hostility. The contest between the company and the citizens was carried on for some time to the injury of both, until fnally a dire insult was offered to the person of our Minister, So- lon Borland, growing out of these difficulties, To avenge this outrage on Mr. Borland, the sloop-of-war Cyane was sent there in July, 1854, under the command of Com- mander Hollins, to demand reparation or inflict chastise- ment. The apology not being forthcoming, the valiant commander, acting under the joint orders of Mr. Secre- tary Marcy, and Mr. Joseph L. White, agent of the com- pany, bombarded the town, reduced it to a heap of ashes, immortalized the Cyane, and gave undesirsble noto- riety to'the Pierce adwninistration. Such fs an epitome of the history of the Greytown of the past. The materials for the first page of the history of the Greytown of the future have been supplied, a few weeks since, by Col. Kinney and his band of adventurers, It is known that that gentleman, being annoyingly con- trolled in his movements by the interference of the Uni- ted States authorities at New York and Philadelphia, saw himself forced to abandon the mighty scheme which he had contemplated, of Kinneyizing the whole of Central America, and to content himself for the present with re- suseitating the fallen fortunes of Greytown. With a few of his followers he sailed from New York, landed at San Juan, built himself a house there, gave soirées dansantes, and other entertainments, to the few colored residents whom he found there, worked into their good graces in a variety of ways, acquired real estate, and settled it in his own mind that Greytown should become a great town in- deed. We have seen how he has entered upon the reali- zation of his plan. It is only a few months since he arriv- ed, and where, previons to that time, there were only a few lazy negroes to be seen stealing from hut to hut, there is now a provisional government in operation; a code of lawe—civil and criminal—established, and all the wheels of a properly organized society setin motion. We gave in yesterday’s HeRALD a report of the proceedings of the con- vention which gave form and expression to these mea- suroe—the election of Col. Kinney as Civil and Military Governor of the Territory of San Juan, his inaugural proclamation or address on that occasion, the appoint- ment of a Council of Five, &e., ke, We now reeur to the first number of the journal established there, for further evidence of the pleasing changes which American enter- prise has wrought in that desolated spot. In the first place, there is the establishmont of the journal itself, one of the highest proofs of progress and enlightenment. It is called the Central Americas, 1s printed in English, and, although the work was entirely done by amateur compositors, it presents a clean and re- spectable appearance, The following is its advertisement of terms:— THE CENTRAL AMERICAN. 8 PUBLISHED EVERY SATURDAY BY WILLIAM H.

B, Palmer is hereby authorized to act as nt for the “Central American’ throughout the United States. After this follows in the number before us—No. 1—Gov. Kinney’s inaugural, which we published yester day, and a paragraph of agricultural newa, which we gave at the same time. The third column of the first page is occupied with a letter from Baron Brunow, chief engineer of public roads in Costa iica, on the subject o emigration to that republic. The fourth column is en- tirely devoted to a “List of Jetiers remaining in the Post Ofice of Gréytown, on September 15, 1856,"’ which is closed by the announcement over the signature of F, Sal- ter, Postmaster, that the “local postage on every letter passing through this office is ten cents the half ouncear(j five cents for advertising.’ Next comes an account of the arrival at San Juan o the British majl steamer Clyde, having on board Consul Fabens and more colonists; an apology for the unavolda- ble omission of communications and advertisements, an acknowledgment of the receipt of @ present of ‘a choise piece of mutton, accompanied by several jars of delicious preserves and piquant sauces;’ a report of a ‘+ mas meeting’ at Greytown on the Oth September, at which Colonel Kinney and others made speeches, and where a series of resolutions were passed—published by us yea- teriay—organising the provisional government, a no of anable sermon preached on the previous Sabbath fp Rev. Mr. Smith, at which there was a large attendance of citizens and members of th Union.’ The first co, Iumn of the third page contains an aceount writen by one of the Kinney expedition under the heading, ‘ Our Reception and Instalment in San Juan—First Impression on Landing—Meeting with Colonel Kinney and his Stall. 4 We copy— We wended our flight to the ‘promised land,” headless of the advice of friends and opposition of the enermles to the Kinney expedition, the former warning us of b in the shape of yellow fevers, untutored savages or wild of the woods, together with reptiles, vampires, snd a combination of inonstrosities, seen, unseen and “felt most diabolically,”’ while the Jatter, a certain company, declined most ed and gullantly, to accommodate us with a transit in thelr commonious line of steamers, giv- ing a* & reason our personal attachment to the much esteemed and noble projector of tnis grea! and philan- thropie enterprise.
