A mutual goed will and a recog- nition of this government are some of the preliminaries. They were conveyed to England bya ateamer that left here on the 4thinst., and will no doubt be accepted by Great Britain, a« Gen. Walker tells me that the propos!- ions of Eogiend were for the most part consonaut with the views of his government. An embatay that left here for Costa Rica some time eince wae received with honor; the object was to estab- lish friendly relations with that Power. The French re- sidents were said to be hostile to this government, and had induced the inhabitants to fortify, aa they feared an invasion by Wa ker; whie the Germans and natives were in favor of forming an alliance. ‘The following are the documents ia the cage of the Schlezsirger misaion:— Rervs.ic or Niwapagua, Muxisrey OF FoREIGN Arvares, GranaDA, Nov, 8, 1855.
