THE NICARAGUA QUESTION.

1t is intimated in England that the new
British Minister at Washington will urge no
extreme doctrines on this question, but endcav-
or TO secure the construction of n slip canal
across the Isthmus, on terms mutually agreca-
bic to both nations.
1t is wonderful what peculiar infections
there are in the voice of this same British Lion.
And what is still more astonishing is the case
with which he modulates and controls its diff
fcrent tones.
Now, when all the advantages Of combat
are on his side, how frightful are the low nut
tered growls with which the brave beast warns
his victim of approaching destuction and
then, us he springs upon his prey, how wild
fierce and savage are tho howls with which he

ry get the upperhand-should the advantages,
by any chance, turn against this noble animal

moan, and he whines to the astonishcd Lelliger.
ant that hostilities with such friend would
break his heart; poor susceptible creature.
But short time ago, when some of our rich
est and most entcrprising merchants, having
obtained grant of way, from the government
of the State of Nicaragua, for q ship canal or
railroad, or both from the port of 81. Juan on
the Atlantic to the port of Realcjo on the Pa.
cific, were about TO undertake the magnificent
enterprise of opening highway for the nations
across the american Contincnt,-a highway
which would secure to the undcrtalers certain
emoluncnts, and to our commerce certain adj
vantagcs not to be enjoyed by Great Britain
behold the Lion, of which we have spoken
rampant in the way. Steps were taken to
dcspol the weak and defcnceless Nicaragua Of
her only Atlantic port and our merchants were
warned not to attempt the contemplated work
Then the world foI the first time heard of
that ancient and vigorous monarchy, the king.
dom of Mosquitia; and of that independent
and warlike people the Mosquitoes. What an
accession was this to history and geography
Then we were told, ignoramuses that we we've,
that Mosquito was rich and fertile country,
situate in the heart Of Central America, EN-
bracing many thousand square miles and gov.
erned by a wise and right royal gentleman
King George, forsootIi---that tho Mosquitoes
with a persoyering and indomitable conragc---
with heroism, in fact, scarcely equallod by the
example Of any other people, had ever defend
cd the sacred soil Of this their beloved country

In the meantime 'aie British authorities on

George ihundred miles down the coast
to ST, Jaun, and had commanded the mhabi
tants of that place to acknowledge his authori.
ty and to swear alcgance(o TO him, which the
good people very naturally declined. The
matter was not however to reIt here, the rights
of his Mosquition Majesty wde to be asserted
and supported, or rather the Yankees were not
to be allowed to construct their canal without
the consent of Britain, two wa steamers, there
