The Nominee arrived in St. Paul at
dusk on Tuesday evening and left in
about two hours, without running to the
Fort. The DR.. Franklin, No. ., came
IN the night, went up to the Fort, and
returned down the river while we were
asleep. The fever of rivalry was at
burning pitch on both boats Captain
Smith says he will return his boat now
to her regular working time as packet,
in which capacity steamboats, are far
more useful than in running races.

the United States Such treaty has been made,
and is soon TO be submitted to the legislature for

swering speech, says that,
"Since 1928 the people of San Salvador, full of the
most lively enthusiasm, have aspiredno only for the
friendship of that great and powerful republic but
still more, to behold its sacred rights secured under
the influence of that portentous constellation"
The organization Of national confederation oil
the Central American States is favorably and hope
fully spoken Of in their official speeches.

LATER FROM CARTHAGENA.--By the bark Bogo-
tn, Captain Thomas, which left Carthagena on the
18th ult, we have later intelligence.
The cholera has ragged violently on the seaboard
of the Republic of New Grenada, but is now SUBJ
siding, and business is slowly revivng from the
dreadful shock it sustained from the fatality that
attended that disease.
Some alarm is occasionally created by reports of
its temperance, but they are generally unbound
ed; although in the interior it still continues its
ravages, but in less degree than formerly.
When the bark left it was reported to be in Bar
ranguilla, but that was not generally believed.
The semi annual fair, held on the river Magdalena,
was this month post poned, because the town, or
village, of Mayaguar, where it was to have been
held, was prey to the cholera.-N. Y. Journ Com

The Courier and Enquirer thinks there
is too much secresy " as to the condition
of the negotiations in relation to the affairs
of Nicaragua" So far as we have been
able 10 observe, il has not been the prac-
tice Of this Government, or any other, to
keep the public apprized of the progress
and condition Of pending diplomatic nego-
tiations. The opinion has generally OBJ
tanned that publicity might embarrass one
or both parties, complicate the questions
al issue, and render satisfactory result
difficult and doubtful. II may be that this
opinion is not concurred in by the statesmen
ofthe city of New York. They'hold peculiar
notions of the utility Of newspaper discus
sion and criticism upon all matters, public
and private. Murderers, and criminals
of every other degree, are tried by the
penny press, rather than in the courts
of Justice; but we must be permitted,
nevertheless, to doubtwhether that is the
fttest tribunal for determining question:
of international law, and also whether adj
vice and suggestions from that quarter
are calculated to promote a judicious ant
satisfactory adjustment Of delicate con
troversy between two great nations. The
Constitution has con6ded to the Execu
tive the sole management Of our inter
course with foreign powers, and the de-
gree of publicity which should be giver
to pending negotiations may well be en-
trusted to his discretion and judgment
