The News. ‘The steamship Atlantic, from Liverpool for this port, with four days later intelligence, has been out thirteen days, and may be expected at any moment. The news from Nicaragum received by the steam- ship Daniel Webster at New Orleans, is of a highly imteresting character. The declaration of war py @osta Rica, and its consequences, we have comment- ed on in another column. Gen. Walker had issued @ proclamation stating that the democratic party of Nicaragua had invited him to espouse their cause, and that he had endeavored to carry out the princi- ples of the revolution of 1854; that the legitimist party had resisted all efforts at conciliation, and there was no resource but war. The government of Gosta Rica had issued an address calling on the peo- ple of Central America to destroy the North Ame- yiean invaders. In the United States Senate, yesterday, the Chair- man of the Committee on Foreign Relations reported a joint resolution to remodel the diplomatic and con- salar system of the United States, which was adopt- ed. The debate on the action of the Naval Retiring Board was resumed, during which warm and per- sonal remarks were indulged in by Senators Clayton, of Delaware, and Bell, of Tennessee. In the House of Representatives, ten thousand copies of the Cen- * tral American correspondence, together with thet between this country and Great Britain on the arbi- tration and enlistment questions, were ordered to be printed. The Lill appropriating $500,060 to main- tain the peaceable disposition of the Indians on the Pacific, was passed. In Committee of the Whole, Mr Warner, of Georgia, made a speech vindicating the rights of the South in the common territories of the United States. In the State Senate yesteruay 2 remonstrance was presented from the citizens of New York against the construction of wet basins in the East river; the bill for the construction of a bridge across the Hud- sen river at Albany was passed; the resolution ealling on the State Engineer to report what work is nec2seary to make Harlem river navigable, was adopted. In the Assembly nothing of public im- portance occurred. Ovr despatch from Washington this morning is of an interesting character. . Hise, of Kentacky, had been seni for by the President, and offered the post of Minister to Nicaragua, in place of Coloner Wheeler. A Cabinet council had been held on the despatches brought by the Canada, but their import was not known. General Pierce had declared his intention to make no more appointments to office anti] the Cincinnati Convention had made anomina tion, and that be was in the hands of his friends and would abide by their decision. The trial of the case of Giles against Flagg, for the contested office of City Comptroller, was com- menced yesterday morning, in the Supreme Court, before Judge Emott, of the Second Judicial dis- trict, anda jury. After the opening remarks of the counsel for plaintiff, the testimony of Mr. Jason Mills, one of the principal witnesses in the case, was taken. His evidence was chiefly in regard to the alleged error in the returns from the First district of the Nineteenth ward, which gave Mr. Flagg 316 votes, and Mr. Giles 136. According to the plaintiff's statement, the 316 votes were given, through a mistake of the clerk, to Mr. Flagg, in- stead of to Mr. Giles, thus securing the election of the former by a majority of 179—the total yote for Mr. Flagg, as appeared on the returns of the whoe eity, being 20,513, while Mr. Giles received 20,134. The report, which will be found elsewhere, gives the details. The case will be recumed at eleven o'clock this morning. At a meeting of the Board of Almshouse Govern- ors, held yesterday, William S. Duke presented nis resignation as a member of the board, which was accepted. A ballot was immediately taken, and @ornelins V. Anderson, ex-Chief Engineer of the Fire Department, was elected to fill the vacancy thus created, by a vote of seven in his favor to one blank. Mr. Duke is an old line whig, with Know Nothing proclivities, and Mr. Anderson is under- stood to beiong to the saine schoo! of politics, 50 the political balance of the board is not destroyed. A resolution was adopted to increase the house «tat of the medical department, and a number of nomi- nations made. There are 6,406 persons now under the care of the Governors, being a decrease of 45 since last week. George Wilson, the negro of the Madera Imo- gene notoriety, was brouglit*)p before the Supreme Court on habeas corpus yesterday, he being held in custody by the United States authorities on a charve of revolt. The Judge refased to interfere in the matter, as he was committed by the federal an- thorities. Yesterday thiee of the crew of the brig Sea Breeze, of Bucksport, Maine, bound to Darien, mu tinied and drew their knives on the captain. They were put in irons and taken ou board the revemac cutter Washington. We have dates from Mexico t) the 14th ultimo, ‘The insurgents at Puebla were confined to the Ca- thedral of San Angnstin, and were suffering for pro visions. An outbreak had taken place in Guadalajara, in which some two hundred persons were engaged, but it was supposed, it would be promptly suppres- sed. Late letters from Lower California announce the discovery of new and very rich gold and silver mines, some of the products of which had already reached La Paez. Commodore McKeever died at the (iosport navy yard yesterday morning. Mr. Robinson, the gentleman who ctaims to be Governor of Kansas, is in Washington. ‘The Merchants’ Exchange, and a number of other buildings and stores, in Bath, Stenben county, N.Y., were destroyed by fire onthe 23th ult.

The telegraph news trom New Orleans is ex- ceedingly important. Col. Schlessinger had been escorted out of Costa Rica, and that re public had formally declared war against Ni- earagua. Gen. Welker was at once in the tield, at the head of a force of abou‘ six bun- dred men, and proposed to march at once egainst the Castle of Guamo. It is alleged that the Nicaraguan army had been reinforced by 310 Americans, making, according to the most reliavle information, an active force of about sixteen hundred men. The military force ot Costa Rica is composed of 300 rega- lgrs and 5,000 militia men. We thus have the nominal array of the two Powers, They are in collision; an event pre- cisely what, it is believed, Gen. Walker most desiree, We shall now hear of the total over throw of Costa Rica and the other States ot Central America, and the establishment of a confederation under the auspices of the Walker men. Viewed as mere military operations, these events are of little consequence; but re- garded in the light which is retlected over up- op them irom Texas and Califcraia, they be- come matters of the profoundest interest and magnitude. No military man acquainted with the powers and energies of the conflicting torces in Nicaragua and Costa Rica can fail to foretell the complete triumph ot tne former. The arrival at Granada of Major Heiss, with despatches from Washington, and of a peace smbassador from San Salvador, are sigaiticaat of the course of eventsin our Cabinet, and of the smaller States of the Isthmus. It is pro bable, indeed, that Pierce is prepared to re- cognize the Rivas government, and that San Salvador will be found on the side of Walker. It is, then, highly probable that within a short period, under the force of arms, the American movement will become a permancat power in the Isthmus States, which being coa- solidated, the left flank of Mexico will have been turned, and that republic placed literaily in the hands of Anglo-Americans. Tue Cie tN Ponrries Acarn.--In the New York 7rilwie of yesterday apoears an- other letter from a clergyman, signiag him- self Willard Jones, on the slavery question. Like bis three thousand brethren of Massacha- retta, this reverend Jones has the blasphemy to claim to be a especial mouthpiece of God, and to wield the thunders of the Almighty against all who do not agree with him in opi- nion. “Statesmen,” says this reverend, “may see what seems to them the beat political po- licy: but the men who take God's word for their guide, see what is right.’ Addressing the advocates o° slavery in Kansas, be adds: “The Almighty, with his principles of mora! government, is against you.” Again, “(God is waging a conflict with this nation, God marks out a line of duty, and those who walk in it and serve God occupy an honorable position:” but “those who uphold the wrong and fighs against God will be like Ahab,” &2., &c. What the reverend Mr. Jones means by fight- ing egainst Ged is fightiug against Jones: so far as he sees, Jones is God, and God is Jui, or at least they are so closely allied, and it is so utterly impossible for Jones to be wrouz in interpreting God’s word, that they may be used as convertible names. When Jones wants athing, Jones says that God wants it; God declarer, if Jones is baffled, or kept waiting, or ctherwise annoyed, that He is against thors who thus baftle or annoy His servant Jones-- at least Jones says so--and woe to the perverse mortals who thus “war against God.” Al) this is as old at least asthe Oracle of Delphi, There never has been so poor a knave who could not somehow make out that God was on his side. and that his enemies were inspired by the devil. Religion, Master Jones. had better be 1. alone by politicians. Preach it, practice i, honor it; but do not try to use it as a polit: cal argument. It cuts on both sides and on a!' sides, and infallibly ends by doing most mis chief to those who first appealed to it. At all events, if you must talk about religion and the priesthood of God, wait, for pity’s rxke, till a good east wind has dissipated the ctilu- via of the Cox trial. Great Wo1s.—We publish elsewhere three great wills--that of the millionaire, Heary Parish, that of the late Nelson Robinson, of this city. and that of a Wrenchman na ned Michel, which latter has been a bonne forune for the lawyers of Paris. Mr. Parish died worth some two millions, He left over a mi!- lion of dollars, including fifty thousand to churitable institutions, by various codicil § It is alleged that these codicils were mace when Mr. Parish was so enfeebled In body as to be unable to sign his name, and the inference would arise that his mind was not of the strongest at that time. The Michel will case, which involved over a hundred millions of france, is very curiousand interesting. The testator, among other pro- perties, had a bond of the King of Spain (Fer- dinand, of course.) for 51,000,000 francs, for which his Majesty offered him 13,000,000 francs, payable in instalments. The miser was, donbtlees. very loth to consent to such a bar- gain; but they who deal with kings must pay the scot. Michel accepted the forty or forty- two cents on the dollar, and starved his sor. vants and his horses to make up his loss. Next to owning money, say# the French satirist, the greatest pleasure is that of reading about it. Our readers can have that satisfuc- tion this morning for the moderate sum of two cents.

Mr, Clayton was particularly severe on General Houston, and was himee'f tn tura ce eoiishea by Sevator Bell. Houston's speech ia reply to Clayton will be voluptuous. The Judiciary Committee of the House are preparing a bill which radicaliy changes the diplomatic an¢ con- sular bill of the Jeet Congress. Within the last ten days the Presi?ential imbrog'lo here has assuned a variety of very in‘eresting aspects amcrg the scene-shifters ard pipe layers of the differen’ parties, cliques, and aspirants for the succession. First—The intense hostiity to Bu:hanan of the Douglas, Pierce, and Hunter macagera, has assuced somethirg of the complexion of a regular conepiracy egainst the distinguished Pennsytvanian. ll the an'‘i- Buchanan élemenis appear, at least, to agree in this— that the first essential is his defeat at Cincinnati, and they are all using the same means to accomplish this great object. The Douglas devotee will tell you that Buchanan isan old stick, an old federsiist, am old fogy; and, worse than all, that he is fishy on the Nebraska bill decidedly fishy—that all the fi-hy Buffalo free soil ce- mocrats want bim nominated, and that that ought ta be enough to damn him. The Douglas man wil) further eeclare that democratic Young America of the great ‘West can’t stand the ides of an acministration to be made up of the o:d gray beards and fossils of the party, suchas Buchanan would instal in the Whie House. The same arguments are employed by the Pierce and Hunter mex, wi h some modifications of justice to the administration and jus\ice to the South. But there are more direct agencies at work againet ol Buck, than theee general outside conversations. For- ney’s retirement from the Vion isanitem. It was both a Buchanan ard an anti-Buchanan operation. Seoetor Slidell of La., Sena‘or Bigeer of Pa., and others, Buch:- nsn men, waited upon the President to protest against the sort of democratic neutrality observed by the Union. Its chief proprietor, (Nicholkon) was maje printer to the Senate with the distinct uncerstapding that the Univa should stand neutral concervirg all the democratic aspi- rents t:ll the party should have a regular nomination, But it was not £0; and among other things, Col. Forney, & Buchanen committee man at home, held a very equivo cal porition as joint editor of the organ. Very well, said the President, we will ree to that. Col, Forney w. acccrcingly called in, and told that no man could carry wa'eron both ehonldere, (Gen. Pferce bas made that dis- covery,) and that be rust decide to set down cilher the Pierce cr the Buchanan bucket. With tears in bis eye", Col. Horney asked to be excused; if, reduced to this o:- deal, be should feel compelied to atick to the candidate of his native State; amd, without a tear in his eye, Gen. Pferco excused him. (Entre nove—Marey, on being in- formed cf it, took a pinch of rnuff, end said he bad no 0% jection.) The result is, that while Furney is thus left free te go home and work for Buchanan, the Unisn is lett with a larger margin of neutrality for opposition to his pretensions, and may now be consiiered for P.erce first, Douglas second, Hunter third, Cushing fourth, and Ba chanan last. Meantime, they are humbugging bis Excellency ths Presddent without remorse. Most of the delezates to Cinciznatd have been ticc’ed—e large proportion of thom have the very best reascus for keeping cn tie right side of the administration yet a little longer. Fat offices, here and there, may Cepend uron it. And so Gen, Pierce has been favored with letters from 4 sufficient number of Qdegates to assure him of « mejority of the convention trom the outret. Fle takes these promises in g.oi faith, when many of them are cheer moonshine. Franklin Lierce may get the complimentary testimonial upon the firet vote, of a plurality; bu: then, as with Van Buren in 1844, they wilt drop him. The Lona fule Pieree delegates have an iokJing of this, and their plans are arrange! ac cordingly; first to defeat Buchanan, and, secondly, to create such an entanglement in the Convention as will compel tt, a: it resort, to fali back upon the adminis- uation and trust to luck. . Pur contra, An active Buchenan delogate makes the following e».imate of the first vote in the Convention for his favorite, tmdicating the first choice of the deiegstes thus casting their suffrnges, to wit:—Maine, 4; Connecti. ent, 6; Rhode Island, 4; Michigan, 6; Pennsylvania, 27; Delaware, 3; New Jersey, 7; Maryland, 8; Virginia, 15; Louisiana, 6; Oh'o, 8; Texas, 4; Iowa, 4; Wisconsin, 4— tota), 104, This, he thinks, (without including the N«w York vote for Old Buck,) will be the highest vote upon the firet ballot, exeepting, perhapr, the complimeatary plurality to Gen, Merce, a large proportion of which will fall upon Buchanan in tke second experiment, including the States of North Carolina, (South Carolina, if regro- sente?,) Georgia, Alabama, and probably Missouri. But the danger to Buchanan is among the Celezates, and in the long interval to the first Monday in June, which they will have for pipe-laying and log rolling. Al- ready letter writing and button holding are the order of the cay amorg them; and as they como dropp'ng iato Washington from day to dey, they are stizx4 upoa and Initiated {nto the mysteries of this plan and that plan for disbursing the epotle, especially the cabinet officers and foreign missicna, It is on this vital ieee of the spoils that Gen. Pierce has ané can have no shadow of a chance, His offices are filled, and he has nothing to give. Were all other things equal, tkat faet woulffnish bim. The one term principle is henceforth the inevitable law, But Buchanan’s danger is begloning to be manifest, from the active “Greer and Donelaon’’ correspondence going on amcng the opposition (clegates, and they may possibly succeed in foorirg him. At all erents, ths Peres aad Dovgles interests. ond the various Vice Presidential in- texests of the North--Bright, Wright of lod., Diamey of Orie, Cushing and such—looking to » Southern Presiden- tia) candidate, require the oversiaughing of Buchanan, ‘and no stone will be eft unturned to she ve him. Im this connection, as it is understood taat Mr. Ba- ebasan will cave Havre on the 9th lost., for New York, and will, on h‘s arriva!, be welcomed with « deliverave Buchanan demonstration. Let his friends see to it, or ‘there will be a boteh of it. Wito regard to the Fillmore and Doves n party, there is reaacn ‘0 suppose thet the ‘South Amerisana”’? would be gratified, rather than disappoin'ed, to earn that the ex-President cannot accept the Philede!phia nm nation. A pew farion movement is on foot, ixclujing » janc‘ioa of the seliert points of nigger worshipprg and Know No" thing principles. The former party heve been holding a series of love teasts here, during the last week or 69, and their ge me is that of the Penpsylvapia tusionia's—a sort of amaigam of Know Nothingism n+ Sewardism in ‘he tiebet, and the platform of the heterogeneous all!- epee. In thie view, and in view of ‘h- apvile be not vrpiixed should Seward consent so far to sofea b's pro- xtamme, as with Mclean, of Ohio. Fremont, or Sam Houston, to effect an ac ive conjum tion cf all the in- tractaple opposition elements North and South, against the cemocratic party. ‘The following call, including what they are pleased to dercwinae the principies of .

Con- siderable exc tement, which may be termed a tempest in a teapot, bas been manifested by each party in marshal- ing their forees and putting their candidates in proper trim and position. Four State convem:ions have been he'd—the three first of which manufactured and put for- ward the following tlekets:— Democratic. Know Nothing. Nigger Worshipp’r. FOR GOVERNOR. AmericusV.Potter. Wm.

Anderson C. Rose, after working witb the party nearly two years, upon beizg oominated for » second term, began to lock about him for better company, and final'y concluded to bolt and go over to the democrats. He consequently wrote a letter inform- ing the Know Nothings of his determinstion, and re- quested that his name should be taken from the ticket, which was done, and Mr. Nicholas Brown was subse- quently nominated in his place, At the last spring election there were but two tiskets in the field, and the Know No'hings carried the State against the democrats by nearly five to one.

James, whose term expires on the 4°h of March next, 3 Letter from Captain Sye, Lave Commander of tne Pacific, TO THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD. It in with reluctance that I intrude upon your columus, as « former communication embraced all I intended to soy of the Merars. Brown and myself in connection with my commard of the Pacific. Batss many attempts bave been made to torture my ata‘ement of facts into an attack upon my sucetssor and his chit epgineer, I am mduced to disclaim all such intention; nor does my letter warrant any such conciusion. My object was to thow the advantsges of the arrangement I desired—and which waa approved by Mr. Collins—to give the Pacific to Capt. Oliver Eldiidge, and the Atlantic to Capt. Aa Hdri¢ge; and I may here add that the former was equally disappointed with myself at its failure. Axonymous lettere are not wortby of notice. I shall therefore confine my reply chirfly to the letter of Mr. Wm. H. Bowen in the Public Ledger, which was for ward- ed to me from Philadelpmis. He ssys:—‘‘As to Capt. Nye’s letter, whether he was moved by spleen or patriot- iem to publish it, I know not, nor do I intend,to enter into the merits of the controversy between him and the agent in New York.’’ There is n> controversy between me ‘‘and the agent in New York.”” The matter at issue is with the Messrs. Brown, here and ia Liverpool, and ex- tends over a wide space. The fee.ing which Mr. Bowen terms ‘‘sp.een’’ may possibly deserve anothsr name, and the following statement justifies its expression:— AD! remember the accident to the Atlantic, in January, 1851--her return to Liverpool, and consequent detention for repairs, In November foltowiog, while the machi- nery of the Pacific was being examined, preparatory to her sasling for New York, a crack waa dissovered in the port journal of the main centre shaft, After a survey by the resident engineer, the chief engineer (Mr. Thomp- fon), and myself, it was decided that, with care, the ship might reach New York in safety. The extensive repsira necessary to our wheels, ocsupied the time night and ay, and precluded the poreibility of turning the engines ‘ill three hours before sailing. I thea ascertained there was a crack on the op posite sile of the suaft. The hour of sailing (9 o’clock A. M.) allowed no time to sommuni- cate with the agents, Taus I founi myself ina tight place, and not one of my own seeking. After consulting with my chief ergineer, and deciding on the amount of steam which might be safely carried with the shaft in that condition, I ceciled to arsume the responsibility and proceed on the voyage. I requested Mr. Jack, the resi- dent engineer, (the only person in Liverpool cognizant of the fact,) not to name it, and thus avoid creatieg uune- cessary anxiety. The event justified my decision. In eleven days the ship was @t her dock in New York. No one outside the engine room was aware that anything was amiss; nor was it even kuown to the public that the ship required a new shaft at that time. To remain in Iaverpoo! would have been most disas- trous, The ship was loaded; passengers coming. on board; we should have failed to perform our mail son- tract. Not te speak of the greater expense of repsirs on ¢bat side, we should bave hai the mortification of a second detention within the year, anda renewal of the eneers of the British public at American machinery; while the company was nearly bavkrupt, and seeking the extra appropriation from Congress, which was necessary toits existense, Noone was mo. e direetly bene- fitted by the sesult than the Mesers. Brown, they holding large amount of stock. My own pecaniary interest 1co trifling to be weigbed egainst the racking anxiety and sleepless vigitance required. I might, therefore, have preferred a claim to some degree ot “ patriotism,” and @ greater Eoenice of fidelity to the interests of the company. This, | am happy to say, was fully appre- cizted by ‘all interented ‘except the Messrs, Brown. ‘Tbree days afer I left Liverpool, the “agents” the-e, without any kwowlerge of the facts, except what tuey derived from Mr. Jack, who tock the earliest opportunity to inform them, followed me with a letter, strongly con- demuing what they termed ry ‘‘assuming too much re- sponsibility.” Tbis was re-echoed by the Messrs. Brown, and by the s‘andard of these “foreign sgonts” I wes jocged and erndemned, on the plea, “ suppose yon had tailed??? As an extenuation of these a‘a, it may be that Mr. Hamilton, the managing man in the house of Brown, shipley & C>., regretted the fa lare of nis brother, am engineer, to secure enother lucrative operatima in repairs. Whatever may have been the motives of tie Messrs. Brown, is best known to themselves. This is ao example of the spirit in which all my success has ben met by them ; and] am baopy to sey that in my lop: professional career, during which ! have been connecte: with the first commercis! housesin Boston, New York and Liverpool, this {s the only instance of a want of generosity, courtesy ond atriet justice. Mr, Bowen arserts thet n-ne of the stock of the com- pony is owned in Liverpool. I¢id not eay there waa, but merely quoted s remark of sir, Hamilton, that vue ships were ‘‘ their own.’ I leave tt for others to recon- cile thia discrepancy. It may be well to look at some of the acts of there mere agents. At an entertaimment given on board the Persia, on her trial trip, Mr. Burns, ¢ chairman, prefaced tue roast, ‘Snceess to the Coiling line o1 stesmers,’’ with e tribute of gratitude to the gen- tiemen mansging these steamers, for the honor anc kind- ness shown by them to the Cunard line, and gave a3 an instance their reaciners to change their safiive day from Weenesday to Saturday, when, the Briuish government requiring transports, the Cunard company were reauced to railing once a fortnight, For many yeara the Cunard tine had no competitors, Saturday being their regular from Liverpool, became the iuall day for ontinent of Euroge, and, ia fact, for the n hemisphere, It is not surprising that ixious to retain the adraatages of The grwirg reputation of the Colling their short passages, would, bad they retained their da; of railing have soon changed the current of mail matter to Weéneday, and secured an advantage whi hb the retura of the Cuvard jine could not have wiested from them, Or they might have seized upon the vacant Seturcay, and retained it, thus eacrying out the fiibustering p icciples attributed to the Yankes nation, but which history shows to have been more fully devel ed by their Evglich encestors. It may not be genurall known thet the British agents of the Collins liue to Li- ‘erpcol sor summates this arrargement, so \etrimental to our post cffice department, and advertised the first ship to roil on Saturday, without consulting the sgent in New York, or the Postraster General, so that there appeared no alternative for them but acquiescense, Well migh: Mr. Burns congratulate the company ‘‘on the handsome ecnduct of Mr, Brown and the other gentiemen who man- eged that concern.’ But not equsily can the American public be congratulated that this ‘‘soleiy American eater- prise, commenced and carried on by Atcerican capital ard energy, whose stock is held chiefly in New York,” thculd te onder the controlof men whose interest, so far en portsge is concerned, 1s identified with that of the British government and the Cunard line. After denounc- ing me for “assuring” u responsibility im the ship I commanded, which I could not well avoid, acd fally sus- tained, they did not hesitate to take upon themselves a ca cr, which materially affected one department of the merican government. Again, when the bealth of E. K. Coilins and Wm. Brown was propored, the latter, in reply expatiated on the a¢vanteges of iron steamers, (we-have none); he also stated in effect, that the mod of our steamers were copied from those of the Englieh,a tact not before Frown, but he strangely forgot to name the gent!eman ossociated with kim in the sentimemt—E.
