Mr. Rochester has returned from his mission TO the
Republic of Central America That unfortunate
Republic appears to be torn by internal factions and

not be said there is any existing Government. we
understand that Mr. Rochester was authorized to
return it. on his arrival at Omna, he should be sat

would be without benefit, or that any personal haz-
