More Correspondence on the Nicaragua Question
The manifest gravity of the Nicaragua contro-
versy, in respect to which the country finds itself so
suddenly involved in serious difficulties with Great
Britain, excuses us for giving attention to many
new developments and indications of the question
We find in the Washington Union, translation
from La Cronica, a Spanish paper published in
New York city, a long editorial, which eInbodies a
narrative of some diplomatic attempts to settle the
affair, recently made in London, between the Gov
eminent Of Nicaragua and that of Great Britain
The Nicaragua Republic is of Spanish origin
which accounts for the possession, by La Cronica
of information derived from official sources. 1t
establishes one important point most clearly which
is that the British Government, in full view of the
Wishes opinions and interests of the United States
has taken the emphatic ground that nothing will
ever be recognized permitted in respect to the
San Juan river, which does not admit the sove-
reignty of the King Of Mosquito.
La Cronica says that few months since, Lord
Palmerston, in reply to the energetic representa-
tons of M. CASTELAR,, declared that St. John de
Nicaragua Grey Town belongs to the Mosquitoes,
and that the State Of Nicaragua possesses no right
to that port, to any other part of the territory
designated by the English Government under the
name Of the Mosquito and expressed his expecta-
ton that the Government of Nicaragua would
consequently desSt from all pretensions of te kind
and would acquiesce in Important arrangements
about to be made for the regulation of export and
import trade by the river and port of St. John.
The English Minister, it is said, offered. every
assurance that such arrangements should include
advantageous stipulatons for Nicaragua.
M. CASTELAR,, in reply, insisted upon the right of
his country" by immemorial possession-the law
of preoccupauOn, recognized and sanctioned among
nations--and the seal of treaties concluded BY
England herself" and he denied the existence of
the so-called Mosquito nation, as well as its title to
the country but proposed, since correspondence
had not succeeded in reconciing opinions, to leave
the matter to an arbitrator, leaving the choice of
the means to the British Minister himself
AT this point, statement was made which, if
correct, throws new light on the part taken by
the Government OF the United States. 1t is said
that Mr.. Bancroft, with the authority of the Gov.
eminent, interviewed declared the positive wishes
and intention of the United States, and supported
them in communication to the British Govern
ment. The Washington Union, in note, seems to
I doubt whether Mr. Bancroft acted under instrue.
tions. Mr. Bancroft is in New York, and is ap.
piled to, by La Cronica, to confirm this statement
but il is not at all likely that he will make his official
acts public, except through the regular channels Of
the Government
1t is fair to infer that he did communicate the
position of the United States, as he understood it,
to the British Government.
In spite of this interpOsition Lord Palmerston
replied, with some attempt at halteur, that the
intervention of the United States would not avail
anything; since the Governmental of her Britannia
Majesty, having once come to a definite resolution
respecting ST. John de Nicaragua, Il Das inapossi,
Die TO recede heretrom THAT THE INTERVENTION
WOULD NOT BE ACCEPTED"
Such is the narration in La Croaicq, of the cor.
respondence in England within the last few months.
Establishing the point, that Great Britain has
declared that she will not recede from Der position,
and that the State of Nicaragua shall not be per-
mitted to exercise any rights whatever over the
mouth of the San Juan river.
We may further understand from this, the import
ance of the declaration of Mr.. Squer to the Gov
eminent of Nicaragua, in which he recognized the
obligation of the republics of this continent to pro-
teot each other against all aggressions upon their
| rights by European nations.
