Permit me to transfer you tiese lines, in order to tive you the last details ot the Walkerian achieve- nents. This chief, famous by his utter incapacity, iis avarice and cruel oppression, is most fortu- sately in a very precarious situation. After having ried in vain to take fan Jorge at four different dimes, and having sho toff more than a hundred bomb- Dells, he was wholly unable to add this bittle vil- ‘age to the list of his victims. Hennigsen and San- lers, seeing the utter hopeleseness of his position, save separated from him, hundreds of deserters are eaving in every direction, and the killed ones, amongst whom are Colonels 0 Neal and Leonard, as | a well as Major Dusenberry, cover the inglorious leld of battle. Amongst the killed isa Frenchman, who came with $25,000 to Nicaragua to buy up some | of the confiscated plantations, and whom Waker ‘orced to a most involuntary loan, and then put him ‘1m the ranks to fall at the next attack. Lockriage took Serapiqui after twelve hours’ igbting, but met with @ most severe repulse at Sastislo, where be was obligea to cut the ropes of his st¢amvoat in order to save himself against a most bayonet charge of the Costa Ricans. fifty , whom he left in that village, were cut to pieces, and their corpses were een fo: amounting voined their comrades, but wil | ine destroyed, as 800 new Oosta Rican troope wili ne | in @ tew days to Point Arenes and at- | these adventurers in rear, conjointly with balance of those eve mies which occupy the upper ot the river.

Whilst certain parties, whose friendship omly Jaste whilst things go smo.thly, have been tarning ‘their backs on Walker, his many friends were con- cocting plans which hare bronght to a snoeessfal feaue the late operations on the San Jnan river. “The New York commodores have still time to anite in bis favor with advantage to themselves. Should they, however, oppose him, the result is certain— they will all tall together to the ground. There is but one favorable route through Nicaragua, or to the north of it. Commissioners may sell other rontes to gull the public, but the one route, which is solely in the possession of General Walker, is now, ‘and will remain his to grant and his to snpport. ‘There may be fools who will accept the terms of an imaginary route from the so called Rivas party, but their delnsion will last no longer than that party, ‘and will soon die off with it.

But who will realize the pro- fits? Morgan sbies, Garrison looks grave and says but little, Venderbilt is eager’ to clutch the prize, although he bas had it wenched from bim once. It is too gorda thing, however, to give up, and he con'd settle business sooner than the others, for he is not ro timid. Wise heads are speculating as to prospects of sup- phes in cotton and sugar, and the question is as- suming a serious aspect. It is said that the seed of the cotton plant reeds renewing, but tnis is aa erro- neous impression. The answer the preacher gave his congregation when requested to pray for rain, is appli able to cotton wers—“‘It is not rain you want bere, it is manure.” So with cotton—it is not the seed which is wanted but the soil. Where can | sufficient lands he bad to sapply the demand for raising cotton avd sugar? Cuba, if it were in our sion even, is not sufficient, and our Southern States are falling off in their erops. The No: has well asthe South nave a deep inte- rest in solving the problem. Indeed, it is the rais- ing of these crops which will no doubt eventually setile the vexed question of slavery between them, tor the North wi)l have her factories continue even though slaves must raise the raw mate. ial. Where is the cottonto be raised? As a natnral conseqaence we tarn to Central America, for there lies apy amount of uncultivated lands, rich a3 the richest Mississippi Dovtom, inviting the cultivator, and ready to yield countless harvests for the su gol of the world. Whetber saves can ve introauced | not yet certain; the reigniog powers have not said so, and no one Knows General Walker's i¢eas with regard to it; but, in the event of their being a bar to slavery, white men Can raise either sugac or cot- ton in abundance. all the low Jands in Nicaragua produce sugar in abundance, and of superior quality; the higher lanes also produce very good crops. The beat crops sre found upon the bighlanos of Managua and Ma- pa, where the cane grows to an incredible size. r can be raised for five cents per pound, and there are tw willion of acres sasceptible of its cul- livation, each acre producing four thousand pounds, amouphng to eighty millions of dollacs; there are also four millions of acres of Jand upon which fine cotton would grow. Witn ail this, Nicaragua isa healsbier couvtry than the cotton or sugar lauds of cur Southern States, besides being adapted to all the products of tropical and most of those of vem- perare segions. In the Chontales and Matagalpa | wheat can be grown in abundance, and there is water power for any quantity of mills and gins, as also for mining eperaaons Cotoo grows every- where, from the vallies to the bill tops, aud althongh the species grown is not well cuttivated, yet it pro- dnces the finest article. It seems to be a sponta- neous production, the same seed having been used | perhaps for ages. The export of c»\tou from Nica- Fagua bas been as high as thirty thousand bales in oue year, but on account of revolutions it has dwin- died to the production of only snflicient to employ | afew indians in the manufacture of a species of sheeting and candle wicks. The o>tton mannfac- tarers of England propose, in consideration of the anticipated scarcity, to form a 'eague for the eacou- ragement of the culture of cotton. Let the United States take the step in advance, at least on this con- tinept. She requires but to aay—Go and make the covnary, and it will be done. Let England look to her East Indies—America must look to america, Let but the United States give the impetus, and in five years we shali have no clamora about a probable | scarcity of cotton. Vas. THE NICARAGUA TRANSIT ROUTE. . TO THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD. Are not both England and the United States dis- tinctly and unequivocally bound by the guarautees of the Clayton-Suiwer treaty to reinstate the Nica- Taguan transit? The Clayton-Bulwer Convention of April 19, 1850, and the United States, the motives of these great commercial powers in entering into mutual guaran- tees for the eucouragement and protection of those contractors whe might be induced to embark their capital in opening more direct avenues to the Pacific Ocean. The object of that Convention is clearly stated in these plain and binding terma:— ‘The govern ment of the United States and Great having not only desired im ‘mio the to acco wplish a particniar patto rel pripcipie, they boroby Hou by treaty stipulations to as: cation, @bether by caval or reiiway, across the istamas which eoep: ots North end South America, amd cepecia/ly whetber by cai e@atadiished by the way of Britate vestion jebuantepec. | named in convection with “the general principle of security and neutrality”—for the various Isthmus communications which this Clayton-Bulwer treaty professes it is ita aim to establish. Nicasagua is cared for with equal emphasis in anotber clause, and our immediate business is with the Nicaraguan transit. In direst violation of these treaty pledges, this invaluable highway to the Pa- cific was plundered and sppraieel ak December, in the nee of the Britwh fleet at san Jaan, and ia etil barred to American commerce by British in- caragna roate, and t> the context of the treaty, in which tall proeotion is gusrentied to all ‘‘ practical communication across the Isthmus,” tae ject of an interocean canal through Nicaragua ated in these explicit words, | in article 3 of that treaty :— In article 5th the contracting powers declare in Se nen em oes Foe ge that, Gas the works ehall be com) |, both governments “engage to tit aks marrapek, seizure, or nnjus. con- tion, and they guarantee the neutrality thereof, #0 that it may be forever open and free, and the ital invested thers in secure,” it seemed to be the intention of the late Dallas- Clarendon treaty to narrow down the scope of this convention to a mere Anglo-American riner ship, to dismember Nicaragua for the exe! efit of Costa Rica avd the half-breed Africans cailed M ito Indians. Ordinary filinastering becomes and praiseworthy ander the sanctioning pre | the Dalles-Clarendon scheme. Nevertheless, even granting thats United Stares Senate might be found capable of ratifying that extraordinary arrangement, it could not abrogate the right to indemnity or re- ee eared ey 1m contractors nod a embari ir capital ms i & practicable commun aoross the Tabenuat of Wicaraana, | under the guaranties of the Cleyton-Balwor treaty. Whatever they contracted after Aprii 1th, 1860, | was secured by the pledged faith and treaty obliga | tions of both Great Britain and the United States, | “against interruption, seizure, or any violence what, | ever,” and the canital therein employed from deten® | tion or confiscation. Some months have passed since the transit was interrupted and the free passage of our trade to the Pacific entirely destroyed by Costa Rica, the favored | pS England. Wharves aod buildings consiructed | solely at expense of Atnerican contractors wer. | barnt, and the lake and river steamers, employed in the transportation of passengers between our l'acific and Atlantic States, furcthly seized and beld as prizes of war by the same ally of Encland. By this act, Costa Rica put iteelf in an attitnde of war against Great Britain as well as the United States, and if the latter Power made tne convention of April, 1850, in good faith, it ia bound to diamiss the oficet in command of her fleet at San Jaan for cereliction of duty. The Nicaragua transit route was broken up by open force, snd England, who hed engsged in the Clayton Balwer behead pens it,and was present a naval force and a!) necessary wi form her eagagements, became, in fact, the accom. ice of the Costa Ricane in the piratical seizore of the American steamers. Her naval officers became the enstodians of the plundered property, which England was under solemn obligations to defend from the “ interruptions, seizures and confiaea tions. If the govern nent of Great Beitain refused or neg! to redresa this and open in- fraction of the Clayton Bulwer treaty by its | ben- | highways; but whether necessary or not, the Clay- too-Bulwer treaty was ade and still exists, and oy it both governments are bound to muin’ain the secu- rity and nestralite of all the Isthmus avenues to the Pacific from such piratical forays as the Costa Ricons pe: ted ‘ome mouths since, under British aid and encouragement, on the Nicaraguan tran: sit. Costa Riea has three times assailed this transit, and on ope occasion fifteea unoffending Americin citizens were slaughtered. Toe assailants were armed with minie guns from the Tower ot London, and were inci ed to the war by Britivh agents. The Costa Ricaos alone bad net the strength or the ca- pacity to destroy the Nic«raguaa trausit, and they despatebed their agent, Senor Alvarado, last Sep- tember, to San Juan, to arrange witn the Bricish of- ficials tbe plan which was carried into effect in De- cember. Of this, full evidence isin the ion of the Cabinet a: Washington, or it is easily obtain- able. This government has no choice before it bus to cal nyon England either to admit her complicity wit Costa Rica, or to assist in ohastising these out- rages on the transit. If Koxzlund evades her shace of the work of reparation, the United States wilt knew how to take eare of their own interests, and will be happily relieved from this dece tapyling alliance of Apeil. 1850.
