The steamchip Africa, which left Liverpool on ‘She 20th ult. for this port, had not been telegraphed up to twelve o'clock last night. We have intelligence from Nicaragua and other parts of Central America, received by the steam- sbip Tennessee, which left San Juan del Norte on the 22d ult., touched at Key West on the 27th, and arrived at this port yesterday morning. The news from Nicaragua is important. It is reported that the position of President Walker had been much im- proved, both in military and political resources. He had sixteen hundred men, Americans and na- tives, under his command, and they are reprefent- ed as in good health and under perfect discipline. Hie government was looked on as established, and Wt ie said that Rivas was repudiated by all parties. Ts appears, however, that there still exists amongst some portion of the inhabitants a determined op- position to his rule. A party of his opponents having entrenched themselves near San Jacinto, the President sent a detachment of forty men, under @olone! Macdonald, to attack them, but his troops were repulsed with the lose of six men killed and seven wounded. When the remnant of the body re- tarned to Granada a party of citizen volunteers, of- fieered from the army, marched to the place, bat whey were equally unfortunate, having been routed, With the loss of fifteen men killed, wounded and missing. The three officers in command—Lieut. @olone)} Byron Cole, Lient. R. Milliken and Mr. Marshall, a volunteer leader—were among the killed. ‘The enemy suffered very severely. Another attack was about to be made by artillery on the entrenchment. Leon was «'il] held by the united forces of San Salvador and Honduras, but much sickness pre- wailed in their ranks. Over twenty men died daily of cholera. Dr. Livingston is again reported assafe. In Costa Rica cholera was thinning the “people, and it is said the army had decidedly re- fosed to again invade Nicaragua. A British fleer, mounting one hundred and ninety-six guns, lay at San Juan, and two additional vessels were daily ex- pected. Captain Turley, of New Orleans, who de- werted with his company from Walker, was killed with all his men by the Chontales Indians. Hon. Pierre Soulé bad left Gradada for New Orleans. The death of General Estrada, ex-President of N' yagua, is reported. President Walker had held his second jevee, at which Colonel Wheeler, U.S. Min- iter, attended. The colonization decree had been altered and rendered more explicit with respect to the rights of settlers. There ie nothing new fram Key West. The mar- kets were filled with wrecked goods and materials. Our files from Bermuda are to the 23d ult. They eontain little news. The Roya! Gazette of that ay saye:—H.M. brig Atalanta, Commander Pas ley, bas arrived from Halifax. The Atalanta brough? despatches for the senior naval officer here. Admiral Fanshawe wishes to be correctly informed as to the state of the health of the Island, and whe- ther it was likely any additional medica! aid will be required. H. M. steamer Hermes, Commander @rayton, bad arrived at Halifax from Jamaica. She had lost her surgeon, gunner, paymaster, carpenter, apd several of her crew, by fever. It was reported ‘at the Hermes would leave Halifax on her return to Jamaica. Yellow fever prevailed to « great ex- tent in the parishes of Warwick and Somerset. It was carried to the is'and in Jane last by H. M. ship Malacca. By way of Bermuda we have news from Barba- oes and Grenada. The West Indian, of Barba- dees, of August saye:—A new and agreeable feature is the appearance in our market of mer- chante engaged in the North American and United States trade, as sharers in our staple (sugar) trade, although at present to a very small extent; 5,275 bogsheads of sugar and 7,4*% pancheons of molasses were shipped, it will be seen, to the United States and British America, where it is so much to our in- terest to obtain a market for our produce. In @renada, the Legislature was in recess, business at a stand still, money an unknown commodity, the port empty, crop over, weather unseasonabie, and taxes pressing on every one. Among the plauters want of labor was much complained of. The hope ef obtaining coolies had been given up. The suger erop will be 3,500 bhds., which is 1,000 lees than ‘What of 1855, and 2,900 less than in 1954. Four or five weeks’ rain was required to give the young canes @ fair start. Tae students of Union Theological Seminary visit- ed Col. Fremont yesterday, at his residence. We give an account of the interview, together with the speeches delivered on the occasion, elsewhere ia our eojumne Ex-Governor Floyd, of Virginia, delivered bis Jong threatened speech yesterday in Wall street, in front of the Merchants’ Exchange, but to a jess Bumerons audience than that which assembied on the previous Thursday to hear the speech of Mr. Banke, to which this was intended as a response. Mr. Ployd’s speech was carefully prepared, and printed slips thereof furnished to the reporters— bat he did not adhere to the text. We give his speech as spoken, not as printed. The point of it is that be declares himself ready to cast the electoral vote of Virginia for Mr. Fillmore, if he can thereby defeat the republican candidate. On inquiry as to what he ehould do about the foreign vote, he related a Classical anecdote, the moral of which was that after they had feasted the Know Nothings they would disembowel them. Read Floyd's speech. The American Bible Union adjourned yesterday, after a session of two days, and after electing officers for the ensuing year. Accounts from Lecompton, Kansas, to the 26th alt., represent the Territory as perfectly tranquil. Warrante have been issued for the arrest of String. fellow, Sheriff Jones, and other pro-slavery leaders. Late advices from Morthern Mexico state that Gen. Vidanrri was preparing to resist the govern. ment forces sent against him, and that the flag of the Sierra Madre republic would soon be unfurled. MAn ineuit has been offered to the officers of the sloop-of-war Cyane, by some rowdies in the streets of Halifar. The Halifax Recorder of the 27th ailt., thne relates the cireumstances:—\ We are sorry to learn that, on the evening of Tuesday last, a f the offcere of the United Sta'es While: puagiog through yery sorve Cave were growey 1 of our streets. They were followed up by a crowd, who very emphatically advised them to ‘go to Greytown,” and shouted out various insulting expressions and opprobrions epithets after them. One of the insulted party, we understand, expressed @ willingness to give a licking to the best man in the crowd, but the individuals who composed the lat- ter preferred, it seems, limiting themselves to giving the foreigners a piece of their mind.” The Cyane left Halifax on the 25th for the coast of Newfound. land. Onur reports oi the public health may be found in another column. Lest the letter of Dr. Harris, Phy- sician of the Marine Hospital, Staten Island, which was presented to the Board of Health on Tuesday, may lead to unnecessary alarm, we would state that for the two weeks preceding the 10th ult. the Doc- tor reported eighteen cases of yellow fever, while for the three weeks succeeding that date he reports only sixteen cases, and all of a mild form, yielding easily to prompt treatment. - The cotton market yesterday and day before was quite active, and the sales for the two days footed ‘up about 8,000 bales, about 2,000 of which were sold in transitu for Europe, and a good part of the remain- der to arrive, at an advance of jc.a jc., closing at about 12jc. a 12}c. for middling uplands. Flour was heavy, and declined about 10c. per barrel. Wheat was in fair request, with the turn of the market in favor of buyers, especially for the lower grades of Western reds. Choice white was unchanged. Corn sold at 68. a 68}¢. for sound mixed. Pork sold moderately at $20 a $20 12. Sugars were in good demand at steady prices, with sales of about 1,500 hhds. of Cuba and Porto Rico, with about 425 boxes, at prices stated in another column. Coffee was quite steady, but quiet. Grain freights to Liverpool were firmer, with engagements of about 60,000 bushels in bulk and bags, at 9jc., 9je.a 10e. The Dirty Linen of Communities and Ne- tions—How to Wash tt Decently. That quick sighted philosopher, Napoleon the Great, on one occasion, when harrassed beyond forbearance with the noisy squabbles of his fami- ly for place and power, observed to them that every family had its dirty linen, but that pru- dent and decent people washed their dirty linen on their own premises, and hung it up to dry in their own garden, instead of flaunting it before the world in the public highway. Under the veil of this homely suggestion there lies a world of wisdom to families, communities and nations; for not only every family, but every community and every nation, have more or less of dirty linen, which, from self-respect and decency, they do, or should, wash and dry upon their own premises, and not on the public highway. Asa nation we have our dirty linen, and a good deal of it-—especially our dirty nigger linen of the South. The fathers of the constitu- tion and the Union, impressed by the same idzas of deceney and propriety as Napoleon, shaped their action accordingly; and whatever their troubles and squabbles about niggers may have been, they always modestly and studiously avoid- ed the public offence of brawling them to the world. In the convention which framed cur organic law of union, there was a violent in- door controversy upon niggers, which threatened to destroy the great work of the Revolution, in secession, divisions, anarchy and confusion? At this crisis the cool and refiective Franklin sug- gested an adjournment over to Monday, and that the interval be employed in solemn prayer, to the end that a spirit of conciliation and compromise might prevail. His advice was followed, and it resulted in that glorious fruit of conciliatioa and compromise, the Constitution of the United States, But in that sacred, instrument of wis- dom and patriotism, so carefully did the parties concerned In it endeavor to conceal this dirty linen of slavery from the world, that neither the erm free white, nor negro, nor black man, nor mulatto, nor slave, nor servant, occurs in the constitution, from the beginning to the end. With no other light before him than the con- stitution, the reader would most naturally con- clude that there were no niggers in the country; and his ilumination upon the subject of slavery would be limited to such expressions as these- “free persons,” “three-fifths of all other per *~no person held to service or labor in one “the migration or importation of such persons as any of the States now existing shall thiak proper to admit,” &c. These clauses, how- ever, refer to slavery, slaves, niggers, slave representation, fugitive slaves and the Afri- can slave trade; but mark how studiously the washing and drying of this dirty linen is concealed from the public eye. So lofty, sensi- tive and sublime was the sense of liberty with our revolutionary fathers in their construction of 4 constitution for a free people, that they would not permit the word slavery, nor slave or slaves, to be used even in their concessions to slavery. Now, mark the coutrast between the giants who framed the constitution and our shameless secession pigmy politicians of the present day. A few miserable fanatics of the North: first ander- took the indecent exposure of this domestic and dirty linen of Southern slavery to the world. The South became indignant; but the South b came imprudent. Not satisfied with decently re- sisting the indecent interferences of Northern fa natics in their domestic affairs, reckless Southern demagogues and fire-eaters forthwith began to hang out their dirty linen on every public bigh- way, and to bring up their heavy washings to Washington. But now they have gone beyond ail bounds of moderation and decency, and our Northern States are filled with Southera mission- aries, in the character of big he nigger washer- women, shaking and flaunting their dirty linen in our faces from Maine to California, Mr. Cobb and Mr. Benjamin tried {tin Maine on a large scale; but the disgust of that peopl such conduct was very strongly exprosmed in their late election. And yet, as if this warning and the indecent exhibitions of their dirty nigger linen down South, hy such fierce washerwomen as Gov. Wise, Mr. Kiett, and Bully Brooks, were not enough—we have New York and Pennsylvania fall of the same general class of disturbers of the peace and de- cencies of the family. In Pennsylvania, Gov- ernor Cobb and Governor Johnson, of Georgia, are prominent among these nigger linen washer- women; and in New York, Governor Floyd and Senator Hunter are just as busy in threatening dis- union unless we help to elect Buchanan, and thus secure, by fair means or by foul, new slave States, new territories for niggers, new markets for nig- gers, and higher prices for niggers, up to an in- crease from one thousand to five thousand dollars a head for good healthy field niggers. In fact, this general exhibition of the dirty nigger linen of the South by Southern democratic washerwo. men, big and little, up here in the North, shocks every sense of propriety and deeency, and has become little better than a public nuisance. Meantime this Pierce administration. guided hy the ferocious and bratal disunion counsels of soni such public disturbere as Atchieon and Jeff. Davie, bas been washing their dirty nigger ] K , i thos storgea and dyed in human gore, has been exposing it to the four winds of heaven. From Kansas, the same revolting terrorism has spread iteelf like a frightful epidemic all over the South, until, fierce and bloody as the brutal street women of Paris in the first French revolution, these nigger linen wasberwomen of the South trample all laws and all social decencies under foot, And what are the results? We have had a foretaste of them from the Iowa, Vermont and Maine elections; and on the 14th of this month, the accumulated pressure of this popular reac- tion will give, in Fremont majorities of from twenty to fifty thousand, the solution for Penn- sylvania, Ohio and Indiana, The result in No- vember will be a revolution of unparalleled ma- Jjesty and power, and it will inaugurate a new epoch of peace, law, order and constitutional and fraternal reciprocities between all sections of the Union. We shall then see what fools and ninnies, what senseless declaimers and ranters these South- ernand Northern secession traitors are. The question now is, not shall the niggers be liberated, but shall white men be made slaves? To submit to this Southern democratic terrorism is to sub- mit to the condition of slaves and niggers. We must elect Fremont—uphold the sovereignty of the people—make good the rights of white men under the constitution, not only in the United States Senate, not only in Kansas, but through- out the South, including the Congressional dis- trict of Mr. Brooke, of South Carolina, and the city of Richmond, under the very nose of Gov- ernor Wise, Finally, with the new epoch of the constitution, and of white men’s rights, a new era of good feeling will come to us, in which all sorts of our dirty Northern linen, as well as the dirty nigger linen of the South, will be washed and dried at home. The day breaks and the skies are bright. Propaste Conspmacy 10 Cueat James Bu- cuaxan Aone His Frrenps.—-We are more and more satisfied daily that there exists among the leaders of the democracy here and at Washing- ton a conspiracy to cheat Mr. Buchanan in the ensuing contest, and to bring about such a com- bination as wil) elect Mr. Breckinridge to the Presidency. The mode of operations isso to manage matters, in conjunction with the Fill- more electors of New Jersey and Pennsylvania, who are to be brought round by means of money or promises of office, as to throw the three candi- dates into the House, and prevent Fremont from being elected by the people, notwithstanding the popular majority in his favor. The politicians of New Jersey and Pennsylvania have always been venal enough; indeed, the scheme is so promis- ing that we have no difficulty in believing the story that several members of the administration are actively engaged in the scheme. If the elec- tion is carried to the House by such agencies as these, it is well known that no party will have a majority of States. The democrats count upon 15, the whole South; the Fremont party will be sure of 13 or 14, and the balance will be under the contro} of the Know Nothings or Americans. Now, the scheme is to keep the House busy in voting till the close of the session, on the same plan as was adopted for the election of Mr. Banks as Speaker, till, on the 4th of March, the Vice Presidential candidate, who is certain of the suffrages of the Senate-—John C. Breckinridge— will become, simply and plainly, acting President of the United States, and wil) have the dispensing of the spoils. There is reason to believe that of late the Pre- sident, Jefferson Davis, Caleb Cushing, and others connected with the present administration, have become very cold toward the interests of Mr. Bu- chanan, and favor the election of Breckinridge. During his recent rapid passage through this city, the President had several private interviews with John McKeon, the successor of the late Mr. Shepard, and the person who is entrusted with the duty of breaking up that portion of the democra- cy which originally contrived the nomination of Mr. Buchanan. It is shrewdly surmised that the subject of conversation between the President and McKeon was the organization of an opposition to Buchanan among the democracy of New York, and that McKeon is acting throughout under ad- vice from the President and part of the Cabinet. The next movements of the democracy at and around Tammany Hall will disclose more of this conspiracy against the unbappy James Buchanan by his own partivans. Fuimone 1s New York—Riviwerovs Re- Mons.— We understand that Colonel Forney, the man of all work for Buchanan in the present canvass, is busy circulating all sorts of stories and inventing absurdities without number in refe- rence to the prospects of the candidates. Among other things, he bas scattered a story throughout Pennsylvania that New York will go for Fill- more by 50,000 majority. We have seen a sirai- lar story in the Richmond Whig, and other South- ern papers. These ridiculous fabrications are cir- culated throughout the South for the purpose of bolstering up the Fillmore interest; and they are repeated by Forney in Pennsylvania, in order to affect the vote in that State onthe 14th. A more ridiculous absurd'ty has never been fabricated by the frightened cherubs of the nigger driving de- mocracy. In this State, mo one pretending to any knowledge of politics would risk bis reputa- tion by promising a majority to Fillmore. Every one who knows anything of politica) affairs, from Sandy Hook to Niagara, and every traveller through the State who has seen the drift of opinion, is aware that one of the surest States of the Union for Fremont is the Empire State. Every day adds to the strength of the Fremont party; the only danger is, indeed, that it may be- come too strong, and that internal break ont in it before the result i In fine, the politicians of the Middle, Southern and Western States may rest satisfied that the vote of New York is safe for Fremont. Every indication points to that result. Taxixne THe Stancn Ovr or Hiw.—The great financier, Mr. Peabody, has also declined a pub. lic dinner at Baltimore, and has forwarded to his inviters a neat reply to that effect. How sensible Mr. Peabody bas grown since he returned to breathe the pure air of this free country! For the last twenty years, in London, he has been con- stantly at grand entertainments with mayors and mayorosses, lords and ladies, duke: and duchesses, and what not, Accounts of all these grand affairs have been published in the English papers and sent over hereto be reproduced in the American journals. In one month after Mr. Peabody's arrival here, we have taken the starch out of him, and made him quite a respectable person. We shall send him back to Jobn Bull quite a different man. A Perr ror Sewann.—Mr. Speaker Banke, in hie Newburg speech the other day. took occasion to give Seward a firet rate puff. Now Seward ring the wresent cart Very Mysreniovs—Thurlow Weed pinned poor Pierce when he passed through this city, the other day, and had a private interview with him at the Astor House. Everybody is asking what Thurlow Weed could possibly want of Pierce, thus to stop him on his way to New Hampsbire. We think that we can make a pretty pregnant guess at the motives which prompted this move- ment. Thurlow Weed never moves tack nor sheet unless there is something to be made by it. It is well known that he was one of the founders of the New York Daily Times, in conjunction with Lieutenant Governor Raymond and some of its present conductors. That concern has lately been up to its eyes in a land speculation in a site for the new Post Office. We refer to the Brick Church. The principal conductor of the Times recently purchased this property for two hundred and seventy-five thousand dollars, or thereabouts, and now desires to sell it to the general govern- ment for five hundred thousand, or thereabouts, as a great bargain—for the sellers. We under- stand that Thurlow Weed has a finger in this pie. We thought also that McElrath, of the Nassau Bank, had a finger in it, but he denies it—so we presume it is only a thumb. We understand that the President has the matter of the selection of a site for the Post Office entirely in his hands, and it isnot unlikely that Thurlow Weed has got a promise from poor Pierce to select the Brick Church, and purchase that property for half a million dollars, thus giving a snug profit of over two hundred thousand to the speculators of the Times. Nor Yer Arrivep.—The Chevalier has not yet arrived from Newport to straighten out the snarl at the Opera. His appearance is waited for with extreme anxiety. THE LATEST NEWS.

The Walker Government—Strength and Dis of the Walker Force Killed and Wounded— Mortality at Leon—Deplorable Condition of the Invaders—Refusal of the Costa Ricans to again Invade Nicaragua—The British Naval Force at San Juan. The steamship Tennessee, Capt. Steddard, from San Juan del Norte, via Key West, arrjved at this port early yesterday morning. The Tennessee arrived at San Juan on the 22d ef September, sailed on the same day, and Jeft Key Weat op the 27th ult. We are indebted to Wines & Co.’s Express, and the Pureer of the Tennessee, for late news from Nicaragua.
