the weather permitked. It was boisterous as to ren-
El-3r the bar impassable.
We extract the following from the Jamaica Times
of March 23 :
"ST. JUAN DE NICARAGUA —Her Majesty's steamer
Vix.n, Commander ityaer. arrived on Tuesday morning,
in six days from St. Juan, and brings intelligence of the
termination of the late difficulties with the Central
American Government. The last advices described the
expedition as proceeding onwards to Grenada, under a
flag of truce, to demand of the Government of the State
of Nicaragua the surrender of the prisoners and an
apology for the insult offered to the Mosquitian flag.
The expedition reached Grenada in safety, and matters
were speedily arranged by the delivering up of the pri-
soners, and by an ample apology to the effect demanded.
The loss to our troops has been two killed, two drowned,
and thirteen wounded. The loss of the Central Ame-
ricans was more serious—twelve dead were buried by our
men, and several found wounded afterwards died.
" FVRTHER DISSENSIONS IN HAYTI.—The arrival of
a vessel from Aux Cayes, on Sunday last, brings intelli-
gence of an outbreak in that town on Wednesday, the
Bth inst. It appears that the object of that outbreak
was to get rid of the commandant of the place, for which
purpose a large body of people from the surrounding
country entered the town, demanding the General to be
given up to them, and that a General Telemache '
should be his successor. It appearing to him that he
alone was obnoxious to the invaders, he very prudently
effected his escape, and retreated to Port-au-Prince
From the impunity which followed to the actors in this
affair, it is very generally supposed that the President
was at the bottom of this movement, to get rid of an
officer not suited to his purposes."
The following is a list of the passengers by this
arrival :
" Mr. Mile, from Porto Rico. Mr. Back, RN., Lieut.
tenant Birtles, 3d West India Regiment, Mrs. Birtles,
and Mr. Wilkins, from Demerara. Mr. Wilson, Mr.
Warner, and Captain Brown, 88th Regiment, from
Trinidad. Mr. Girard from St. Vincent. Mr. Oliver
from Dominica, Mr. Tady from Guadaloape. Lieut.
Sharpe, Ist Royals, from St. Kitts. Messrs. Mestre,
Potaw, Costa, Davies, and Daniels, from St. Thomas's.
Count Fererros, Messrs. Espiuonda, Loperana, Encar-
nacion, Guthiel, Gomarens, and Beltran, from Vera
Crux. Mr. and Mrs. Moore and Mr. Richards, from
Cat Island. Mr. Bluett, R.N., Mrs. Glasgow and two
sons, Mr. and Mrs. Clark, Mr. and Mrs. Julian and
family, Mr. and Mrs. Barass, Mr. Rivers, and Mr. Ales,
from Jamaica. Mr. Wolff from Havannah. Mr. Glee-
son from Nassau. Mr. O'Reilly, collector of her Ma-
jesty's Customs, and servant, and Miss Madden, from
Bermuda "
The Thames brings the melancholy news of the
death of Lieutenant Brand, Admiralty agent of the
Great Western steam-ship, which evert occurred on
board at Tampico, March 12. Lieutenant Brand
was a most efficient officer, and was much and de-
servedly respected.
