You are folly acquainted with the proverbial duplicity and falsebood of the government aad peop 6 of Nicaragua. I cannot believe that the cunning stateaman, General Lamar, may bave trusted at any time the milky words of all these American haters, who, however, have not the courage for avowing their inveterate and deep seate! animority against “the race,”’ eo they callfit, of the Amer - cans They are cowardly and mean, and they fear th revenge that the people of the United States would tak» from them if their hatred was openiy confessed. They aot, therefore, treacherously , and talk sweetly and mildly their intimate feelings, however, cannot but show them selves through their {Sint and faithiess assurances of friendahip. General Lamar must have known this from the very first days be bad to deal with this doubie-feced people. Nevertheless, he wrote to the United States by the Iaet mail announcing that the treaty ratified by thie Constituent Assembly wae sent to the government at Waab ington. When he wrote so there cannot be any doabt that he bad received more than ordinary evidence of what be stated. Besides this, | find another reason to appreci. ate how deep was his belief, with regard to the sending of the treaty by thie self-entitied “ government’ to the government of the United States, in bis bursting suddenly into fury aa soon as he heerd in Granada, for the first time, that hie Excellency, President Don Tomas Martiaez, ke., &o., ko., bad not approved the treaty ratified by the Assembly, and consequently had not semt it, as every Dody believed and said, to the government at Washing ton by the last steamer. General Lamar started immediately from Granada reg cock tae Grape aes bie character ef the mystification asd played bholy, as I am told, that he coaid President and the members of the Cabinet and of the Aesempiy and everybody in Nicaragua iD every oon- witb the deputies, and ao forip, immed! tification of the by she Assembly, he talked with them, constant ferring to the effects that the sending of the treaty to Washington by that mail would produce the United States; that a!! said pereons were agreeing ith Dim ip this; that the President himself told bim that ent would insiruct Mr. Yrisarri wo ask some explanatory of the treaty already rauied, apd te was coufident that Wr.

Toey tola ral Lamar that he ovgat not to be astonish: ed atsome informalities apd wan: of etiquette, because they bad very te clerks aud employes in the offices, and Ny scarcely knew how they coula flaish ail the despatches, copies aod documents which they intended to send by Coonel Schelsinger, who was sent to Warbi: gton, because they desired that the ratifications Of the treaty should bee: defore the Senate of the ‘United ttates adjourned. So they bnew how important it was not to lose any time and to fit by the mail which would reach New York on the of April. All these things were said in & manner so friendly, 20 kind, 80 candid—and bore in fact sucha character of nata ral trutb--that the American Minister could pot even sap- pote--even knowing as he knows the exceeding duplicity of all the acts of theee politicians——thas the same Presideat apd Ministers who talked in such a way bad actually the iptention of refusug tue Presidential signature and exequa tur to the treaty ratified by the Assembiy.

OUR SAN JUAN DBL NORTH COARRBPONORNCR, SAN JUAN DEL Nonre, May 15, 1868.

Belly’s Mission, de, This is unquestionably becoming a plese of notoriety, if nothing more, We no sooner get through one difficulty, and rid of on of distinguished individuals, than we are treated to the same dish, ‘bashed up” in » different style. Sam Weller, senior, was not far wroog in his re- mark that ‘he main difference in meat pies consisted im the “seasoning.” This has recently been illustrated bere, not exactly in pies, but in several ‘‘mesees,” in which quite a number of bipeds Bave enacted prominent parts. Ex Governor Kinney and bis party left us rather abrapt- ly, op the departure of the last English mail steamer for Aspinwall, ad the town was just subsiding toto quiet again, ‘when who should sudden)y burst upon us but the Prince of all Travait sgents—Webster! He came upon us ikea cat pouncipg upon an ancopsciour mouse, and tbe whole town was overwhelmed with the announcement that the ‘Trepsit was already in operation-- steamers plying on Lake Nicaragua, and the two! poor iittie back broken ma- chines which have been so long ap at Pasta Aresas, ‘and carefully guarded, were to be let loose, wrenched from the bands of the watchful Scott, and started ap the river without engines or rudders. Miller, with all his dearly won lsarels in the Transit cause, was thrown entirely in the shade, and was for a time the very picture of » heart broken man. And no wonder. He had been here weeks on weeks dispensing Propbeciee to the willing crowd with whom he associates; and yet nothing had he scoomplished, except head and heart sches. Webster, on the contrary came in all the copeciourness of his own importance, accompanied by a motley ci with nothing to jingle in their pockets, closely followed by Col, Fulgencio Vege and staff, and a portion of the Nicaraguan army—consisting of three jean haf-clad natives, with rusty muskets—a mgbt sufficient to awee far braver man than Milier. Not only was the Transit to be set at once im motion, but the whole of the Property on Punta Arenas was to be taken in charge by ‘Webdster—Scvtt pitched to the doge—the arms, ammani- tion, &c., left by Lockridge’s crowd whea the English war vessels generously took them away from certsin death, to be taken by Uol Vega and bis army—" peaceably if he could, forcibly # he must; ”’ and our old and not to be forgotten friend whose brilliant military exploits have given him sach a bigh seat on the pinnacle of fame—tho illustrious Col. George F. Cauty—was to be installed at Punta Arenas as Goveroor. But alas! man is, after all, but mortal, and from time immemorial greatness bes been known to stumble, sometimes even to fall; and it is not surprising, ali things considered, that even Webster should be compelled to submit to disappointment. The United Staies sioop-of- war Jamestown chanced to be quietly anchored im the barbor, and her captain would not ve convinced that Web- ster aod his party had any right to interfere with the steamers or the property on Punts Arenas, more expecial Jy ae they could produce po autbeut: docameats of authority. Co!. Vega as signally fates tocovvince H M's Coneul Greew that the arms, ammunition, &c., should be given op, upless the conditions to certain decument which he held were complied with.
