NICARAGUA.-The Washington correspondent
of The Journal of Commerce, gentleman usually
well informed, thus describes the exact position of
the Nicaragua question:
In very few words, will give you an accu.
rate statement Of the situation of our Nicaraguan
Affairs. The Nicaragua treaty remains in the SEN
ate, just as it was placed the day MIR. Clayton
sent II there. The Story about its being taken up,
and It's failure, through the personal intervention
and influence of the British Minister is pure and
a weak invention. No new negotiation has been
opened with Nicaragua on that subject. But one
VIII be opened soon, Mr. Marcoeta, the Mica
ragua Minister, is now in this country and as Mr.
Kerr, the American charge to Nicaragua, will sail
in a day or two for his post.
Whether the negotiation will he opened here, OF
at Leon, the capital of Nicaragua, is a matter
that will be left probably, 10 the choice of The Nj
raragnan Minister There is objection to a
treaty with Nicaragua, orniitine all that CON
tainrd Ia the treaty now before the Senate, which
is Inconsistent with the treaty negotiated between
the United Statesand England relative to Nlcara.
eua and which was ratified by the Senale in Gen.
Iayiors time. Alter that ratification the late Ad-
mlnislraiun had no purpose of ratfying Mr..
Sqnler's treaty in lis present form.

qua. The assertion that England has violated the
terms of the convention Is gratuilous. 1t with
out any evidence, and is on par with those allie
cations made against the conduct of the Nicara-
guam government towards citizens, the correct
ness of which Mr.. MarcOleta recently had occasion
to deny.

rarely indeed, that it can soften down, when CUBA
comes before it, into such gentle and really at

which we find in recent number of that paper:
During the seventy and odd years since this
country became free, the Cuban people have been
in close neghborhood with us, with every oppor'
tunily to learn the character and blessings OF our
institutions Their principal trade has been with
this country Almost every article of furniture In
their houses is of republican manufacture. The
chairs on which they sit, the tables OIL which they
eat, the very knives and forks they daily use, are
all American made. and suggestive of republican
ideas. Every piano in Cuba is American, and hel
beautiful daughters love to sound the notes OF free
dom's sweetest music. But what is of still more
importance, thousands of Cubans have travelled

CARoLINA-A respondent who writes us from
Columbia, wisely proposes that the people opposed
to secession, should organize, in every district in
the State and form party for the purpose OF saw
ing South Carolina from the ruin into which some
of her politicians disposed to plunge her.
The suggestion is good one, and hope the
people everywhere, will take it into consideration.
The institution of slavery is in danger from seces-
sion. The prosperity OF country is at stake,
and we should not be Indifferent to the ISSUE We
candidly and conscientiously believe that major
ity of the people of South Carolina opposed to
secession. Let them rise up, everywhere, in the
majesty of their strength, and say so, Let them
hold meetings, and instruct their members of the
Legislature to repeal the act of last session calling
a Convention or make it the duty OF the Legisa-
ture to submit the matter to the people, and have
them to vote Convention or No Convention
