Hagislative Opposition and Popular Indifference to a Transit Boute—Bad Condition of the Road—Travel and Specu- lation Suspended— Why Coffce Beate Holders Dislike the News is almost entirely out of the question, as you have mo doubt long since heard of the adjournment of Congress, having previously ratifiod the Lamar-Zeledon treaty, and ‘refused to Listen to or countenance the American contract which General Jerez vainly endeavored to bring to thelr notice. The truth is, in my opinion, these people do not wish » Transit. However, tho result of the events of the Present month will tell the tale. ‘The whole route is at prosent in 8 most deplorable con- dition, The splendid wharf of tho company at Virgin Bay ‘is rapidly going to decay, the road is cut up and washed out by the incessant rains, the bridges, with ono or two “exceptions, are all gone. The steamer San Carlos lics ‘wrecked upon the beach, near St. George; the Catharine ‘Maria and Cass-Yrisarri are under the guns of the fortatSan ‘Carlos, the Laura Frances upon the rocks at Machucha rapids, and the people who aro in or favorable to interested ‘the transit, have “boved against hope” until they all seem ‘wears ook of anzious aud settled inquiry, as if to say “ Lx sabe.

The Senators and Deputies, as well as the Cabinet, are composed of wealthy laudkolders, who have recently turned their attention to the culture coffee, and employ a large number of laborers, who can be hired at the present Ume for an average of two dimes per day, whereas iu the time of u transit they will de- mand a dollar a day, aud many of them would refuge this Bey enormous price 4 desert the coffee field for more congevial and exciting neighborhood of the line Of transit, where they would be sure to find plenty of work and good wages, rougly suspecied by the knowing ones that the honorables of this republic understand this moatter fully, and have mare a contract with Mons. Beily, of bis inability to moet the terms of the iz them more time for negotia- and delay the opening of the Toute as long a8 pussibi We are anxiously waiting to see what action our govern- ment will take in the matter many of the credulous are actually looking for the arrival of the steamer from California, which is to receive the United States mail of the Sth of October from New York. Our new Consu), Ran Runnels, has just returned from ‘Managua, he having remained there several days after the ‘close of the session, spending his time very quietly with the President and Sinister of Foreign Relations, and I am that something is ‘going on.” x Mr. R. bas receutly been exerting himself in sense | ut the whereabouts of the orphan children of deceased Americans, and I understand it is bis intention to call the ‘attention of our government to their unfortunate and des- titute condition. Among theso orphans is a young lady and her brother, natives of Tennessee, who came to this country as emigrants with their marriod sister and brother-in-law, both of whom died about the time of the siege of Rivas.’ They are first cousias to the braye, chi ‘valrous and lamented Charlic Caliahan, formerly reporter for the New Orleans Picayune, who lost bh. life in the desperate battle of San Jacinto. The lad, a br. .er of Miss Callahan, is at present employed in the governmvat print- ing office at Managua, aud I understand that Mr. Runnels thas mado arrangements to send them to tho United States » fo their friends by the steamer of next month. ‘We are hourly looking for tho arrival of the St. Marys, as there has been no man-of-war in port since the sailing of the Cyane on the éth ult. As the rainy season is now at its height, and as wo have but one mail per month from the States, it is of course very dull bero; yet we look for a jolly time on the ‘15th instant, which is the anniversary of the indepen- dence of Central America, and the “powers that be” are making preparations for a grand time in the way of feasting, dancing, tlluminatiovs, &c. . ‘The markets are in a (earful condition, it beiag almost ‘impossible to get anything to eat at any price—the ordi- mary diet of the natives being plantains and beans ({riotes) and occasionally a monkey or a little york. Boef & great rarity, and only to be bad about once per month There i#an abundance of excellent Oeh in the harbor, but no hooks in the country to catch them with. Some time since the steamer Columbus touched in here, ‘when a committee of the ‘ select men’’ of the town waited upon Captain Dow, with the compliments of the authorities, and wanted to’ know “if they bad any fish- hooks on board.” In fact,we are obliged to send to Rivas, a distance of seven leagues, for the ordinary necos- waries of the table. Should the Frenchman succeed in raising the required sum, and thereby knock the Transit in the head for another year, God only knows what will become of the few unfortunate ones left hero without means to get out of the country. OUR GUATEMALA CORRESPONDENCE. GuaTemata, Sept. 22, 1850. Praent Situation of Guatemala—Lethargy of the Govern- ‘ment—Three Bishops in a Family—New Jerusalem @f the Saints—The British Treaty—Discontent—Situation in San Salvador—Honduras—Full of the Moras—Warn- ing to the Others, dc. } The situation of Guatemala has undergone no sensible variation during the eight months of this year that have passed, nor can any change for the better be expocted from a government which openly proclaims a state of {nortia as the highost political good. The President, who holds his office for life, and is in no way responsible for his exercise of authority, neither to the Legislature nor the People, now occupies himself but little with public affairs, the administration of which is chiefly in the hands of his ‘partisans, who direct them to the advancement of their ‘own interests. They are anxious always to keep Gen. Carrera in his present state of lethargy. You will have heard, perhaps, of the recent ordina- tion of not less than three bishops from the soi-disant noble family of Aycenena, of this city, procured chiefly hrough the influence of this governmont, which stands high at Rome, for the reason that it has offered a refuge to all the expelled ecclesiastics from the other Spanish- ‘American States. We have here (and they have organ- Szed a flourishing colloge) the expelled Jesuits from New Granada; and I learn that a hundred and fifty cast off priests are on the way to this terrestrial Jerusalem of tho Saints from the liberal States of Mexico. ‘The ratifications of the ominous treaty with Great Britain, of the date of May 1, have just been exchanged. By its terms Great Britain acquires dominion over not less than 16,000 square miles of territory clearly belonging to this State,on the Atlantic, which now hag left only a paltry water front of thirty milee on that ocean, and only one port, Santo Tomas—which, however, will bo completely dominated by the Belize on one side and tho island of Ruatan on tho other. There is a strong feeling of hostility to this surrender, which the lame apologies for the act made by the Official Gazette of the 9th, have deeponed rather than dissipated. Mr. Wyke, the negotiator of the treaty of coesion on behalf of Great Britain, has just re- fturned to his post from London, having been named Minis- ter Plenipotentiary in place of Sir Gore Ouseley, and made Knight of the Bath for his services. Not a bad reward for ‘an “ able Consul.”” General Barrios, of San Salvador, is earnestly occupied ‘with his efforts to secure his legal election for the next term to the post of President, which he has uow secured Dy means of rather doubifil constitutionwlity. To this end he has put the press under constraint, and has scent out of the country all the men of influence likely to oppowe his plans. At the same time, however, it is but just to say he labors carncstly to re- from abuses, purify the judiciary, and promote education, so that his administration is not without compensation for ite less justifiable acts. In Honduras General Gnardiola is scarcely less activo 4n endeavoring to secure his re-olection to the Presidency. ‘To obtain the moral support of Salvador and Guatemala attempt, he has not hesitated to comply with their demands for expelling the refugees from those States who jhad sought an asylum under his authority. In all three States the news of the fall of the Moras in Costa Rica had produced a profound impression. The question among in authority. seems to be, “Whose turn next?” for none flatter themselves that their hold on ‘power is as strong as was that of the Moras. OUR NICARAGUA NAVAL CORRESPONDENCE.

Operatic and Dramatic Matters. ‘Tho Opera season has so far been distinguished by seve- ral disappointments and only one clear success—that of “Rigoletto.” But things are looking better in Irving place, and we shall soon have the special excitement of the sea- son in the “Sicilian Vespers,” pronounced by European critica to be one of Verdi's finest works. The opera an- nounced for to-night is “Maria di Rohan,’ with Madamo Gazzaniga, Madame Strakosch, Signori Stigelli and Ferri. It ia stated that Gazzaniga and Ferri find two of their greatest réles in Maria and De Chevreuse. On Wednesday the tenor Beaucardé, who has a fine European reputation, will make his début in the ‘“‘Favorita.”” Senor Lacoate’s literary and musical soirée at Dod- worth’s Rooms, on Tuesday, attracted a fashionable though not very numerous audience. M. Lacoste’s declamation gave evidence of very fine natura! powers, cultivated to a high point. Mrs. Brinkerhoff, a most plensing vocalist, afforded a pleasant relief to the serious declamations. Drayton’s parlor operas will be given only three nights more—pamely, on Monday, Wednesday and Friday of this week. Two charming operettas will be given this even- ing; and we earnestly advise every ono who has not en- joyed the most agreeable entertainment in town to see ‘the Draytons while there is yet an opportunity. In the theatres the week has been more interesting to the public than profitable to the managers. Thore has beon a perceptible diminution in the number of theatre- goers, owing no doubt to the local political excitment, which is always damaging to public amusements. The single exception to this rule seems to be at Niblo’s Garden, where the success of Mr. and Mrs. Barney Williams con- tinues tobe immense. The house was crowded every night last'week. At Wallack’s ‘Fast Men of the Olden ‘Time’ has been very successful, a result ‘due in a greater degree to the excellent acting and fine mounting of the play than to its intrinsic merit, which is very slight. At Laura Keene’s theatre ‘The Election’’ has been favo- rably received by large audiences, and bids fair to have a goodrun. At the Winter Garden “ Dot’ has been revived and playod with the new and clever farce, ‘ State vs. Pawkins.’’ The old Bowery theatre has been thoroughly renovated and redesorated, and is conducted by its ma- nagers with that energy and tat which command suc- cess. The new Bowery is doing as well as usual, which is very well indeed. ‘The announcements at the several city theatres for this evening are as follows:— At Niblo’s Garden Mr. and Mrs. Barney Williams will commence the third week of their engagement. Mr. Wil ams will revive the very effective drama, ‘Ireland as It Is,” which, in view of the improved condition of the peasantry in the Emerald Islo, Mr, Williams calls “Ire- Jand as It Was.”’ The very successful piece, “ An Hour in Seville,” with Mrs. Williams in cight characters, will be added. At the Winter Garden ‘‘ Dot”? and “State vs. Paw kins ” will be played to-night. To-morrow an adaptation of “Nicholas Nickleby,” with Miss Agnes Robertson as Smike, will be produced. At Wallack’s theatro “Fast Men of Olden Time,” and a new piece, described as a‘comi: musical duality, adapt- ed from a translation by Maria Grace Walcot, from a translation of ‘Les Deux Avongles.’’’ The avengles are ‘Messrs. Brougham and Walcot. At Laura Keene’s theatre “The Election’’ and ‘Jonny Lind” are announced for this evening. At the New Bowery theatre “Uncle Tom’s Cabin” is an- nounced for six nights, with a strong cast, which includes many of the artista who played in it originally at the Na- tional. The pantomime called “Raoul,” and ‘Carl Mil- hau,” a popular drama, will be added to the bill. At the Bowery theatre, “Lucretia Borgia,” a new piece called ‘‘Dot and Carry @,”’ and “An Object of Interest,” will be played. Two now actresses, Mrs. Annie Senter and Mra. Frank Drow, will make their débuts. At Barnam’s Museum a varied cntertainment is an- nounced for this afternoon and evening; it includes“Paul Pry,” the ““Wreck Ashore,” “The Dumb Belle”’ and a fote dansanto," and introduces all the favcrite artista of the establishment. ‘Wood's Minstrels at 444 Broadway, and Bryants’ at Mechanics’ Hall, announce special novelties for this even- ing.

Tho arrival of Judge Mason’s remains hero by tho Ocean Queen was entirely unexpected, either to his friends or such members of his family as are at prosent in the United States, and as Mr. Heath, tho son-in-law of Judgo Mason, who accompanied thom to Virginia, only reached the city ata late hour on Tuesday night,’ there was not sufficient timo to admit of such an escort as would other- wise have been accorded.

Suxpay, Oct. $0, 1859. ‘The movement in breadstaffs, to which we drew atten- tion a week since as the most prominent movement in the commercial world, continues to attract attention. The ex- port of flour from this port during the month of October has been greater than that of October 1858; the receipts at Chicago and Milwaukee have been greater than wore ever known. Enough uncertainty overhangs the genoral question to render the continuance of activity in the mar- ket quite probable. Nothing is positively known with ro- gard to the alleged doficiency in the crops in Europe, and latterly a cry has been raised to the effect that our Weat- ern crop is also short. At this soagon of the year tho dealers usually circulate all kinds of reports for the parposo *| of influencing the markets; such stories should be received with great caution. The market opened on Monday with some activity, and an advance was realized; this was fol- lowed, on flour, by a pretty sharp decline; this again led toan upward movement, and renewed buoyancy; but yesterday the market closed heavy and inanimate, the closing prices being a shade lower than those which were current on Monday last. The receipts during the week, of both grain and flour, have been unusually neavy, and though the demand both for consumption and for export has beon steady, there is little or no desire to speculate, or to buy for the rise. At present prices shipments to Europe net a loss to the shipper; nor can there ba any clear prospect of a substantial advance in England before the enormous accumulations of stock now piled up in Li- verpool, London, Bristol, &c., have been cleared out. Tho latest advices are not very encouraging to speculators, The cotton market is dull, without much change in quo. | tations. The receipts at the ports are increasing, and an increase over last year grows larger evory week. Last week tha receipts were 133,000 bales, against 110,000 bales same week last year, and 50,000 bales same week of 1867, making the total receipt to date 508,000 bales, against 450,000 bales to same date last year, and 211,000 to same date of 1857. Our exports to dato arc 202,000 | bales against 124,000 last year, and 82,000 in 1857. Stories of sharp frosts continue to circulate on Change, but are not gonerally crodited. Many Southorn authorities adhere tothe estimate to which wo alluded last week, and say that the South will do well if the crop reaches the figure of that of 1858; hore, the prevailing impression is that it | may exceed 4,000,000 bales if the picking season prove a fair average. Tho price continues high, in view of the possibility of a large crop. Provisions are dull, and, as usual at this season, the export small. Western writera adhere to the opinion that the yield of pork will bo vory large this year; tho opening price at Cincinnati is expected to be$5 50. Beof is steady. Rice is firm. In the better grades of tobacco there is a fair business doing, but the lower qualities are dull. Last weok’s import entry of dry goods was tho first which showed a substantial reduction as compared with F; the total import entries to date are, however, np large that we need hardly repeat our stereotyped obseFvation tliat the importers are losing money. Thore have been some auction sales during the wook, at which goods have boon sold at very low prices. It is stated that many of the goods which have been latterly arriving at this port have been consigned to New York for sale on account of European owners; it is tobe hoped that this may beg., ,utif 80, the owners choose astrange market for their goods. It now remains to be soon whethor tho importore will repoat their mistake next spring or not. ‘The business in foreign produce continues quite mode. rate. Sogar has been dull most of the week; on Friday | there was a better demand, and the market closes steady. ‘The inquiry for tea has been rather more active; holders continue very firm in their views. Coffvo is dull, but there is no change in prices. Molasses is steady; prices are well sustained. The market for hides continues to droop; prices have declined 3c. a %(c. during tho week. Wool is quiet, with a moderate business doing. Thero has bhen an active movement in foreign spirits, which havo advanced considerably since last woek; the market is feverish and unsettled. Freights are rather firmer than they were. ‘Tho following are the comparative Custom House tabloa of the trade of the port for the week and since Jannary 1.

The domestic exchanges are all in favor of the city, and small parcels of spect» continue to como in by express, though this resource is less available than itbas been. At this season of the year it is usual to look for a movement of specie southward, in order to move the cotton crop; thus far the exchanges have not justified any such movement. Nor is there any prospect at the present " time of gold flowing westward; at Chicago, sight exchange on New York has actually advanced during the woek. ‘The last bank average of spécie was $20,907,007; a mode- rate reduction is expected to-morrow. The Sub-Treagury balance does not vary much. It stood yesterday at $4,860,765, against $4,703,389 at the close of last week. ‘The receipts from duties are light, but the Sub-Treasurer manages to dispose of a sufiiciont amount of Treasury notes to meet the drafts which reach him from Washington. It is generally understood that the banks will show an incroase of loans to-morrow. ‘Their last statement was 90 prudent and conservative that people seem to think it would be expecting too much o their virtue to look for an equally sound oue to-morrow. Certain it is that, if the banks have increased their loans during the week, they have done so by lending mouey at low rates of interest—in other words, by forcing the market. We aro rapidly approaching a period of the year when the banks, to earn dividends, will be forced to thrust loans on the public. Thoy did 80 a year since, and the consequence has been an importation of nearly 100,000,000 of foreign dry goods in ten months, and the logs to the dry goods importers of nearly all the profits of two good seasons. If they repeat the experiment the re- sult will again be the same. A yoar ago the banks went about seeking borrwers at four and five per cent per annum on paper which they should never haye dis: counted at all. If they have increasod their loans during the past week they must haye lent their money at five and six per cent,and they must have discoumed a great deal of paper which should have boon left to the discount houses. Adhorenco to this policy is a violation of the first law of finance, which declares that the profits of banking establishments shall be in proportion tothe profits of general trade. Our city bankers, in defiance of this law, have determined'that their profits shall be the same in dull as in flush times—that their dividends shall be tho same whether money be worth five or nine per cent per annum. They have succeeded this year, to the grievous injury of the dry goods men. If they repeat the manmuyre, we shall have more mischief done during the season of 1860. ‘The money market is settling down to the rates current last midsummer. Money was never more perceptibly in excess of investments than it is at present. Demand loans range from § to 6 per cent; but money is left with established brokers in Wall street a3 low as 434 per cent per annum. Very choice prime acceptances, under sixty days, go at 534 per cont; under four montha, with two good names, at 6; long paper, first class, two names, at 7; single names, strictly first class, at short date, 7 per cent.; names lees known, en- | dorsed, six months paper, § a 10 ; lower grades of paper | 9012 @ 15, according to standing, &c. Throughout tho | mercantile world money is very abundant. The general | reluctance to engage in speculative enterprisesof any kind | Places an unusual amount of capital at the disposal of money brokers, not only here, but in London, Paris and other financial centres. Foreign exchange opened at the commencement of the week with some animation, and the leading foreign bankers advanced their rates 3; per cont. At the advance a fair business was done for the Cunard steamer of Wednesday. Since then, the demand has subsided ; rates, business has been greatly curtailed. We quote sterling bills at 110% a 2; for 60 days, and 110% a % for sight ; francs 6.10 for sight and 6.12% a 13% for 60 days. At these rates, a small profit is left on shipments of specio to cover bilis drawn here. ‘The following has been the course of the Stock Ex- change during the week:— Oct. 22.

About a month has elapsed since the upward movement which commenced carly in ‘September was chec*ed; since then most of the Western } stocks have declined,».1Contral has boen dull and in- active. The reaction—which was natural undor any cir- cumetances after the active advance of Septomber—was assisted by renewed exports of treasure, an advance in the valuo of money, and loudly expressed doubts as to the permanence of tho increase in traffic on the prin- | cipal roads. Within tho past few days most of these adverse circumstances have ceased to ope- | pate. The shipments of gold have fallen off; money has become easier than ever, and the increase on the ‘Western roads keeps up. Hence a renewal of speculation in the leading speculative stocks. The commission bro- kore state that the public is not interested in the moyo- ment, which, they say, is confined to the street and board | jobbers. Be this as it may, the improvement in the Ga- Jena and Rock Island, and one or two other stocks, looks pretty healthy and promises well. ‘A good deal of conversation has grown out of somo | sneering remarks with regard to American securities in the London Times. We took occasion to remark, the other day, that while railroad securities in this country as a rule are very uncertam property to hold, John Ball has not shown much judgment in sclecting his favorites. He has, in a word, “gono in for the cheap and nasty,”’ and he has gotit. He has bought stocks which promised to yield him an exorbitant return on his mvestments, and in many cases, as he ought to have expected, he has lost principal and interest. Europeans who invest moncy in this country must not think that, because this is the United States and not Europe, people here have no idea of the value of money or the merit of a safe investment. Ex- perience will teach them—and they may as well take our | word for it at once—that good first class investments nover need to goa begging in Wall street; there is plenty of money here seeking employment, and plenty of capi- | talists eager to place their funds. When, therofore, foreigners find a stock selling here far below par, they should at once conclude that there is something wrong abont it, and should have nothing to do with iton any terms. They should, in a word, display in the selection | of their American investments the same prudence and | shrewdness as are requisite for the selection ot invest- ments in Furope. If they pursue this plan thoy will | have no sound cause for complaint. Arecent ocourrenco illustrates the singular want of common senso sometimes evinced by European in- | yestors. Some Wall street sharpers lately organized a railway company for the pretended purpose of building, @ railroad through Texas. By some in- genuity, they obtained introductions to leading financiers in Germany, and proceeded to that country to dispose of a million of bonds which, as they stated, bad been “ospecially reserved for their German friends.”” ‘Lheso bonds were secured by a first mortgage on the line of road anda quantity of land; they woro further se- cured by a sinking fund; they were convertible; the in- terest on them was ten per cent per annum, payable sem|- apnually; yet the company was only too happy to sell them to the public at sevonty-five cents on the dollar t!
