THE LATE EXPEDITION TO TIIE LAKE OF
NICARAGUA.

Some of our readers are no doubt aware that, in conse-
quence of an aggression committed by officers of the state-
of NiCaragua upon English agents stationed in the Moa-'
quito country, an expedition was sent in boats up the
river of Nicaragua (which empties itself into the Carribean.
Sea,) and penetrated to the great lake of Nicaragua, which
lies but a few miles from the Pacific, where Captain Loch,.
who commanded, succeeding in exacting reparation for the
outrage. The whole of the despatches connected' with'
this expedition,—which has been the means of conferring
distinction on the young officers employed on it, namely,:
the red ribbon on Captain G. Loch, and the rank of post-:
captain on Commanders Ryder and Peel,—never having
been published, the following account may be interesting
to some of our readers ; it is an extract from a private
letter not intended for publication :
"At sea, between St. Juan de Nicaragua and Jamaica,
" March 15, 1848.
" We sailed from St. Juan yesterday, in tow of H.M.
steamer Vixen, leaving the Daring, Captain Peel, to exe,
cute some arrangements, and then to proceed to Blewfielda
with despatches, while we go on to Jamaica.

with the government of the state of Nicaragua, in which
the demands we were sent to enforce are secured. The
service has been very severe; for thirty five days we have
never slept out of the boats, not even when we were in
possession of the forts and islands in the lake, and rang-
ing a distance of fifty miles every second day, to supply
provisions for 200 men. Fortunately, the weather was
considered fine, although it rained four days of the seven,
.--not common rain, hut tropical pelts, which an umbrella
could not resist. This bad, fortunately, in some measure,
been provided for, by clothing all the men (soldiers,
sailors, and marines) in flannel frocks and trousers, and
having had rain coverings fitted to all the boats.
" What a magnificent fresh-water sea the lake of Nice-.
ragua is ! Volcanic islands rising to the height of 7,000
feet in its centre, and surrounded on the N. and N.E. by
open country, belted by fine mountains. The city of
Granada is situated at the foot of the mountain of Mon.
bock, a quarter of a mile from the river, and, with the ex-
tchepictkiownvoofd.the cathedral spires, shut out from view by a
" Captain Loch, accompanied by Captains Ryder and
Peel, and five officers, met the three commissioners on a
,o
small island called Cuba, about half a mile from Granada.

in houses, and in the square. However, we had six and
twelve-pound rockets, besides howitzers, that would, I
doubt not, bare given us possession of the angle of the
Square; and then it was intended to have driven them
from house to house at the point of the bayonet. How-
ever, all's well that ends well ; and it is better as it is. • .
" I am writing hard to save the packet, which the Vixen
is to try and cut off as soon as the captain's despatches are
closed."

Captain Loch is the son of Mr. Loch, NI.P., Captain
Ryder is son of the late Bishop of Lichfield, a cousin of
Lord Sandon, and 'brother-in-law of 140 rd Grey; and
