Thix was certainly @ rather discourag. ing proepect for our enterprising countrymen, but, like gallant fellows, they did not give way to useless repining, A council of war was held, at which it was dooided to re- mein on the coast until such time as an interview could be bad with the authorities and remonetrance presented against the iojustice of the government, The authoritios however, were bs obstinate as mules, and evidently te garded the three Americane as a grand tilibustering tri umyira’e, who had been appointed by their countryme to open the way for aa expedition siiailar to thato Walker in Nicaragoa.
