COLOMBIA. ®yRe Mipsic ut Aspinwall—Her Departure for Cotedonia Bay—The Ice aud Flour Monop- olies—Husivess—The Weturn ef the Nipsic to Aepinwall, PANAMA, eb, 18, 1870, The United States steamer Nipstc, Commander ‘Beltridge, of the Darien surveying expedition, ar- fived at Aspinwall onthe 9th inst, and remained @iN'the 17th, repairing machinery, when she left for - Caledonia Bay, there to commence the great under- ‘aking of making @ thorough and complete survey vof the Isthmus. The Nipsic left at Aspinwall the pilot whom she brought with her from New York, + ag he was too ill te proceed further. In his stead she took Captain Hayes, of Asptnwall, an American who for many years past has been commanding small tracing vessels to that port, and who 1s thor- oughly “familiar with ‘the coast, The Nipsic bears with her the best wishcs of the good people of the Iathmus, who hail with delight the prospect of better times shadowed forth 4m the Darien Canal enterprise. My last communi cation, sent forward by the Liverpool steamer Mexi- can, which sailed on the 9th inst. for Key West, con- tained dates from Bogota to the ivth of January, stating that the terms of the new treaty for the opening of a canal across the fathmus had been fully agreed on by the representatives of the United States and Volombila, and that the treaty had veen drawn up, and only awaited the return of Genera) Hurlbut to Bogota to be signed, Since then a steamer from Carthagena has arrived, bat no later dates have been revelved, Congress meets on the Ist of February. The canal treaty will be one of the first subjects Drought before it, and will no doubt meet with a favoraple recepticn. Colombians im general are most thoroughly disgusted with the action of the bast Congress in rejecting the Cushing treaty. ‘Tne ice monopoly, or rather the exclusive privi- Jeze to seli ice on this isthmus for the ensuing three years, was disposed of by public auctton on tne 16th inst. in the Government House in this city and awarded to the Boston Ice Company, who have supplied the Isthmus for many years past, for the sum of $275 per month. ‘This granting of monopo- des and taoterfering with mercantile pursuits by the government m order to “raise the wind” tempo- rarny is meeting with great opposition. Out of the tce privuege the government gaiu $900 a year taxes: more tag previously, and the dear public are obliged to pay a cent a pound more for ice—an arti- cle which 18 now, here, an aciual necessity, The flour monopoly will not, I thiuk, be granted. | If it 1s & rey olution Wil be the result. : Suffering as we are from dui! times and bad Jegisiation, It is gratifying to see that some- thing is being done fo improve the city. The gas works are aimost compieted, aud will be at work in a few weeks. ‘The plaza 1s be raded and improved. Many buudiogs are re- ted and ealarged, and the introduction of water 1s taixed of. The government wishes to make a con- tract for supplying the city with potable water, and advertises asking for proposals for same to ve offered till 28ta inst. ‘fhe Nipsic returned to Aspinwall last evenmy. She went as far as Porio Belo, some eighteen Miles, anu stopped there to get laborers, but coula NOt procure any, and had to return to Aspinwall to get the number meeded. Why ue olficer in charge OL the expedition should have selected such an out- of-the way piace as Porto Bello as a labor mart ‘Whilst the Isthmus is overflowing With idlers 1s more tan I can imagine. Another Week 15 thus lost, ana, as I stated in a previous Jetier, ball the dry season will have passed betore the surveying party get to work. ‘The Nipsic will sail again early in the coming week, about the Zlst inst. { understand the reason given by the Porto Bello laborers for not joining the expedition was that they were afruid of the Indians. CENTRAL AMERICA. Tho Revolution Ended in Guatemala--Serapio Cruz Killed—Condition of Salvador—Bust- ness in the Nicaragaan, Costa Rica and Salvador Republics. PANAMA, Feb, 18, 1870. ‘The steamer Salvagor, from the Central American oust, arrived in this port om the morning of the 7th inst,, witn fifteen days’ later dates from the aigerent republics. GUATEMALA. The revojutionary troubles which have existed in this republic for two yeurs past with but little in- termission have at last ended, and the leader of the revolutionary party, the noted Serapio Cruz, bas been killed. The particulars brougat down by the steamship Salvador are as follows:—Cruz, at the head of some four hundred men, alter various suc- cesses in the Alios, determined to march on the capital. He tad proceeded as far as Palencia, only six leagues from the city. Here he was surprised by @ government force under command of Briga- dier Generai Solares on the 23d of January. After @ heavy masketry combat of an honr the revolu- Uonists fled, teaving dead on the feid Seraplo Cruz, Bheir ieader, aud a large number of his followers, and some fifty prisoners in the hands of the goveru- ment forces. Now that Cruz, the great pugbear of the country, is dead, there 18 hardly any likelhood that Jurther attempts will be made to distur the peace of the repabiic.

A FENIAN MARE’S NEST. The “Faynians” Peddle “‘Arums’” to the Mezxi- cans and Are Brought Into Court to Toll All They Know About It—The Great O’Mahony’s “Heart of Hearte”— A “Gineral’s’’ Character. An tuteresting cage came up vefore Judge Moncl! and a jury in the Superior Court, trial term, yes- terday, in whtoh the Fenian leaders and fire eaters play a prominent role, Hermau Stara is the piain- tif, and the Atiantie Mutual Insurance Company the defendants. The platntufbrought suit to recover $30,000 on a@ policy of msurance for $30,000 on the carge of the schooner 5. T, Keese, The policy was issued by the desendents for $20,000, and other in- surance companies likewise issucd policies amount- ing mm the aggregate to $163,000, The cargo was valued at $215,000, and tke present sult was brought asa test case for all the others, The cargo consisted of military goods and equipments, which the plainudf was transmitting to Vera Cruz, Mexico, for sale, ‘The Keese was totally lost in the Gulf of Mexico, at the distance of about 350 miles from Vera Cruz, her port ef destination. The de- fence set up is unseaworthiness and deviation; that the goods were never on board; that they were very much overvalued, and that the vessel was lost by conspiracy between the sbipper,of the goods and the captain of the Keese, ‘Te case has been'on-trial for the past eight days, and large numbers 01 witnesses have been exam- neq, including Bernard F. Mutlen, who was Secre- tary of Military and Naval Aifuirs of the Fenlan organization, and from whom some $30,000 worth of the goods were purchased. Colonel Jonn O'Mahony was also examined, and testified that he had ceen president of we organization or brother- hood, snd admitted its members were under an opligauion of secrecy. Coionei O'Rerke, who acted as treasurer under the Roveris wing, was called to the stand by defendants’ counsel, and in answer to a question asked the Judge whetuer he was giving testimony io vos trial or being tmed himself as a member of vhe Fenian organization. Colonel O'Mahony was examined, among other things, a8 to the character of General Muileu, Whom he proiessed to have been on Iriendly vermis with for a length of time. 11 appeared that fecig tn the Fenian organization at one time ran pretty high, aud bhe question was asked the witness whether le had professed to be on terms of friendship then with Muilen. He replied no, but thal he had no feehngs of enmity against bin. “Ali | but,” sud counsel, “do you love him in your heart of heartsy” ‘This question the Court excused the witness from answering, amid Jaughter in court. Colonel O’Rorke saia be aever heard anything against Muilen’s character except that he was called “General.” (Laughter). ‘The testimony of the Fenian witnesses disclosed the fact thay their orgauization had on band in the cily of New York 22,000 to 265,000 stand of arms. Considerable testimony takeu on commission in Mexico, with reference to the political situation of ullairs there, and the necessity which existed Jor military goods, was produced on the trial, and estaplisied =the fact that in May, 1867, the so-calied Uberal government of Mexico was overthrown iy the Juarez or revotutionary yoveri- ment, and that the go-calied usurper, Maximilian, lost tus life. It also appeared tat the unsettied condition of Mexico did not, however, cease, but tiat te ational and various State governments continued from that time to supply themselves with aris and military goous. iis Interesting Case will be summed up to-day, and wili, probabiy, be given to the jury this after- Bean.

A case occurred last Saturday on the New Jersey Central Rallroad which, according to the statement of the passenger concerned, 13 a most grievous one, and is to be brougut pefore the courts. The passen- ger, Whose name 1s E. A. Chasteney, purchased a ucket at New York for Dunellen, and left by the train at balt-past four in ube afternoon. Being ac- companied by a friend, the two uckets were retained by tne latter, and were both punched by the con- ductor, W. C. Rand, when he made dis first round of examination, Soon after Mr. Chasteney left bis seat m= order to mees a gentleman whom he knew to be in anotier car, and while moving along be was accosted by the conductor, who called for his ticket. Mr, Chasteney exolatued that his iriend, who was seated Jo a certain car, had both uckets, and he offered to procure 1%; but the explanation Was unsatisfactory and the passenger was sentenced to expulsion. The bell was rang, the train slackened its pace, and Mr. Chasteney was put off the car by the conductor and a brakeman named A. E, Dinsmore. As if expulsion was not sufficient, they called bim, it 18 alleged, most opprobrious names. He no sooner reached the ground than he sprang on the platform of the next car, when he was posed off by another brakeman and rolled down the embankment, The passengers were look- ing ous at the struggle, aud among (hem Mr. Chaste- ney’s friend, who rushed up to the conductor and produced the tickets. Mr. Chasteney was thea allowed to get on the last car and proceed to his destination. This happened about a mile from Ro- and when the passengers learned the nature of the difficulty ukey were so incensed that many of them gave their names and addresses to Mr. Chaste- ney a witnesses in whatever proceedings he may THE MERKLE TRAGZDY.

The Famous Meoting st Union League Hall, ‘Washington—What It Amounted To and AN About It— The Speakers aud the Audience—Tho Serenade and the Fizzle, Wasnineton, Feb. 26, 1870. Ben Butler has been pnt in the flela for the Prest- dential succession, Captain Willtam Jones made the nomination at @ meeting here to-night, and Cap- tain Jones (from Alabama) did 15 unanimously. ‘That a, Jones did ali the aM@rmative voting aud no- body voted agaings him, ‘Therefore 1 is entirely proper and etrictly true to state that Butler's nom! nation for the Presidency next term was unani- mous, Now, I think tt won't be space badly occupied tn your columns to explain the prelimmaries vo the tm- portant movement, and what occurred subsequent 10 the bold cvup de Butler made by the destined-¥o- be tmmortal Captain Jones (of the Horse Marines, a8 Iam credibly tnformed). Two days before the event an advertisement ap- peared in some of the local papers tere setting forth daat the friends of General Batier (including Senator Wilson, God biess the mark!) weuld meet in conven: tion at Union League Hak op Saturday oyening. Muoh wonder was thereby occasioned, Everybody hereabout was curious 40 learn wherefore people amicably disposed to the Estex statesman wanted to gather together ia force at the hali mentioned, Hveryboay wanted to learn the names of the great movers at the very bottom of the potent movement, Among those in search of enlightenment on these Points was included your own correspondent. This ts why your own felt obliged to be on hand two-night at Union League Hail, in order to be posted about the horse marine Jones and bis convention. When your correspondent (which it is 1) arrived at the aforesaid ball he found muc& noise. The sounds of abrass band were loud above everything else, aruculate and imarucuiate, inciuding the street cars. Getting up three, four or five Mights of gtaira, where the meeting was m_ ses- sion, enabled the unmeiodious sounds to be more heard and less deliguted ip. The band Was exclusively African both in its performers and unmusical seicctions. The audience was slim in proportion and much mixed in colors, There were two Africans in the very front seat, then several benches unoccupied, and behind these the bulk of the audience, composed of whites and blacks, and particularly al) the band, entirely black, which was away back by the door. Senator Pool, of North Carolina; Congressman Copb, Mr. George F. Butler (nephew of the Essex statesman), Oongressman Bennett, of New York, and some few other Con- reasional celebrities were among the audience. ‘The balance of the attendants was made up of ex- goidiers and satiors Who were under ob: lone to Ben Butler, On the platform were two tables, three chat two American flags, one painting al sresco, an three men destined to occupy three prominent post. tions in the annals of immortality. ‘These three in- dividuals were Captain Horse Marine Jones, Dr. Snodgrass and Dr. Lockwood. The frat was never heard of betore to-night, the second is a severely re- pentant doctor, who has jomed the legal protession, and the third 13 well known here as a joint believer in medicine and female nguts. Captain William forse Marine Jones was the mas- ter spirit of the occasion. He it was who out of lis own purse and out of his admiration tor General Bauer defrayed the entire expenses of the occasion. Captain Horse Mariue Jones called the meeting to order, nommated the presiding citicer and elected him, called for uke speakers and spoke for them, bamed our next President, voied for hun, declared him elected, aud inaugurated him on the shoulders Of Joursslalwart negrocs. Jones made Dr. J. KE. Snodgrass chairman of the mecting, and, though Spodgrass seemed w be in somewhat Of @ st about tue Wilole allair, he ac- cepted tae honor without qualification, made a speech and ten put the question —“{s there any- vody here who wants to talk in favor of Butler} Horse Marine Jones empoatcatly declared there Was, and proceeded Wo make @ speecn. He opened by inviting anybody to come forth to talk, and for the audience to come further forward to hear. Then Jones modestly deciared he was no speaker, and wished those who Were speakers to “step up to the captain’s Ofice aod gek thelr change,” which Was au allegorical mode of telling stient orators that u they Would only make themseives knowa be (Jones) aud the rest of the meeting, tuciuding the vand, Would gladly see them get on the piatiorm and speak. : But the stient orators remained dumb, and there- fore Jones telt iaspired to speak, Joues said thas bo was uot experienced in geting up great public gatherings by no surt of means. Mad he Kuowo lore about such matters tie present meeuny would not ve 80 slim. But he was an admirer of Benjamin F, Butler, and tat was why he had navi- gated the aeptns of his private purse and resolved to pay the expenses of the meeting for the . of doing honor 60 tie Essex statesman, Benjainin F, Buver, 1p Hi8 (Jones’) opimion, was the greatest man living or dead. Ho was the greavest €xecuave individual now orpamenting the globe. He (Bulier) add more executive ability tian apy ian living; and he (Jones) begged leave vo nominate nim (Suuer) for Fresident of tue Unived Scates, to be in- augurated a littie over tiree years hence, “Ben Butier,” said Jones, “has forgotten more of execu- tive Knowledge tan any mau living. ‘valx of your Napoieon Sonaparies, your Mismurcks and your what-nots | Ben Butier forgot more in one day than any oj them Knew in their whole lives. Who saved thin country? Who was it, lask you? It was Ben- jamin F. Butler and his Massachusetis troops, when they landed at Annapolis, It was a dark hour, 1 tell you, in the national capital when the war broke out, ‘Treason and secession were rampant in this capital. But waen butler, at the bead of his Massachusetts regiment, arrived at Apnapoiis, and tie news reached us here in Washington, the dark clouds were dispelled. We's saw a litte spot of suushine—we’s Giscerned @ little ray of nove in the gloomy future. Didn’t we’s, voys? (Great cheers and laughter, participated in by Butler’s nepiew.) Yous see, though I may not use gooa grammar, though 1 may not be an orator, I am atrue fricad of Buller, a personal friend of Butler, an earnest admirer of Ben Butier; one who wishes to take some steps to thank and honor bim. I tell you, boys aud Mr, Chairman, buuer 18 the greatest man of the age, (Applause aud jeers.) He is the man who saved wis country. (More cheers and _—_jeers.) He done more wo put dowa the rebellion than anybody else. (Cry of ‘fuat’s #0’) And Ll tel) you Whae it 1a, sir, the Ume is coming When he must be rewarded. 1 tell you, sir, We are going to make him oar next President. Yes, sir, ana { teil you that he is zoing to be eiected by the niggers. We wil make him Presideac, and, [ teil you, sir, that we Intend to inaugurate him three years froin now.

That's the way we intend to inaugurate hin. We won't sufler any coach and four horses to convey him vo his Presi- dential residence.” After uttering this and much more Jones sub- sided, aud Suodgrass (toe Chatrman) arose and made aspeect, tie said he was Lot so enthuslasticaliy disposed as Jones towards Butler. But, neverthe- jess, he admired Butler hugely, and particularly for tus moral courage in defending hittemore, the South Carolina carpet-baggish sinner. He went on Lo depict, in glowing colors, the career of Butier in New Orleans, New York and elsewhere, and de- clared that Butler everywhere was right and triumphant, aud that he seemed to be one of those men designed by Vrovidence to perform an inpor- tant duty. Buvier was always the right man im tae right pla Dr. Snodgrass conciuded after saying something more and then Jones came to the rescue anew. Agam he extended an invitation w tle Iriends of Butler to come iorward, and again novody in the hall (of the platform) responded. But Dr. Lockwood, of the corgs of female righters, seeing that a vayt chasm was about to occur thought he would check it. Lockwood got on his feet, cleared his throat, and prepared to deliver a pro-Buuer oration. Several people thereupon commenced to groan and to cry out in an agony of deprecatiod, “Oh! oa! oh) how, Doctor, don’s do itl Ple don’t!” pr. Lockwood was recognized as one WHO Was 1p Lae havit of mulicting prosy orations an the habitus of Union League lail, and lence the groans and “oa! ons!? “But Lockwood was proof against such mtid remonstrances, and heeded Wein not. He went at his speech undismayea, aud spoke it to the letter witvous a flinch. When he concluded the African oand was again let loose, to tiie entire amazement of the gas lignts, which persisted in going Out at every blast of we discordant but powerful wind instraments, Dr. Crane, who sat away back i the hall, then be- came wispired. Without an invitation irom either Snodgrass or Jones to ‘come torward”’ he rose and luquued What might be the precise object of the gathering. Was i vo eulogize Butler? if so, why yOW more than any other time? Had Butier beca abused lately more bitterly than formerly? He was not aware Buticr had. Wherefore this meeting of eulogy, thea? He was an admirer of Buvier as well as Jones or Snodgrass, but he didn’t see any particular use In having a meeting just at this time merely to say that.

WHOLESALE 8NEAK THIEVING. A Dangerous Woman Captured~Seven Com- plaints Agaiust Her—Large Quautity of Goods Recovered. A case of syeak thteving of more than usual im- Portahce came up yesterday before Justice Scott, at ¥asex Market Police Court, the defendant in which has been operating in various parts of the city in an extraordinarily bold manner, and has succeeded in stealing 1AFge quantities of valuable property. The discovery of the thief was almost accidental, and but for the energy of detectives Jarboe and Shalyey, of the Seventh precinct, nothing of any greit im- portance would have resulted from the arrest. Late in the evening of Saturday last Moore Muilt- gan, residing at No. 20 Montgomery ftree$, had oc- casion to enter his parior, and Wis very much sur- prised to find on entering that @ ssrange woman was secreted therein, The gas not sting lit, he went for @ match, and on re-entering the room he met the strange wom: so \ehve, He asked her bust- ness, when she stated she was looking for a sister, ‘The woman was heid till some investigation of the Toom could be made, wiien 1t was ascertained that a box of jewelry containing articies to we value of eighty-five dollars had been removed, The wowan was asked where the box wus, when she informed Mulligan exactky where she had placed tt. An ofl. cer was sent for and the woman arrested, and when taken to the Seventh ward stauon house sie gave her name as Mary C. Wilkins and jer residence as 26 Goerck street, Ofticers Jarboe and Shalvey at once suspected that the woman was 1 the habit of carrying on business asasneak thief, and therefore determined to visit her residence, ‘hey were rewarded by. tnding secreted in various parts of the apartments a large quantity of jewelry, clothing, &c., of the total value Of Irom $2,000 to $3,000, 1m addition to the goods a number of pawn tickets also cailing for valuables were discovered. The officers at once set about to work up their case, and as a result six other com- platnants were found who yesterday identified por- ons Of the property and made complaints against the prisoner. In atl these cases the woman haa pur- sued the same plan, taking advantage of an open a door to walk into ouse and yo through? some room in it ‘ne following were the charges made against Mrs. Mary 0. Witkins:— James Hunt, of No, 306 Hepry street, enarged her With stealing, on the 24th of February, dresses and Jewelry valued at $240; Catharine Curis, on the 7th of February, with stealing ciothing to the value of $102; Benjamin H.
