FROM the New Orleans PicRyane ofApnl H.
From Mr.. J. Cavalry Hall, of Granada, Nicara-
IN, who came passenger in the steamer Mexico,
ge have obtained late and important news TO the
Nh inst from Nicaragua and the so called Mos
epto KiDRdom. Dir. Hall been merchant In
Grsnad a, and gave his Information IN clear and
,raightforwRrd manner, that leaves not doubt
Of the truth Of his statement.
A great change has come over the friendly feel
ings formerly entertained by the inhabitants OF
Nicaragua and Mosquito to- ward the Americans;
The Governor himself formerly acknowledged to
Mr. Hall that his country was certainly destined
20 become Incorporated either with England or
Abe limited States and that he and the Nicara-
guans generally infinitely preferred the latter.
Since the last trip Of the Prometheus, however,
That is within about six weeks, feeling of hos
tilty of so decided a character has sprung up
against the country, that the Americans on the
Istbmus. from Healejo 20 San Juan, have thought
n best for their interests and personal safety TO
leave. About eight hundred of them, who had
established themselves IN the towns and villages,
and who cOriided in the friendship and prOtec.
lion Of the Nicarsgusn Government, have been
% iii tyeated-the natives refusing to buy from
them or sell them prOvislOns-that they all broke
40 their business arrangements many ut much
loss 10 themselves, came down 20 San Juan and
embarked for this port or New-YOrk. The few
American merchants in San Juan Tor Greytown)
have oh hand provisions and other stock for six
teen months which they had made sure of selling
but are now forced TO let remain in the ware.
houses useless, rottlng and ruinous.
The main spring of this sudden Revision of
teehDg lies in the continual intrlgues OF the Con-
sol at San Juan, and ms colleague, Foster, at
RealeO. The latter is materially assisted by
certain mysterious Count DeZaldo, q sort OF
FrenChifed Spanisrd who is well known to be
energetically iOrwsrding British pretensions and
interests on the lsthmus, while he pretends to
remain neutral and also by a Mr.. Manning
wealthy and influential English merchant in
RehlejO. The latter IL a heavy creditor of the
Ncarsguan Government, and exercises great in.
tuence IN all its movements He and his fell
lows have at last succeeded in strongly pre-
JUDGING the Nicarsguan authorities and citizens
against the Americans.
The best proof of this sudden and decided hos
tlty is the fact that fifteen of our countrymen
have be en- murdered within the last twenty. five
days on the road from Reaieo, on the Pacific
across to San Juan where they iormesly Travelled
without fear of harm or danger, and over which
they were making their way as rapidly as possible
sut Of the country to return home.
Our informant did not remember the names OF
AL these uufortunates; he however cited those OF
two, one of whom was killed and the other was
left for dead in the road. The first was MIR. A. @.
Maynard. from the western part OF New York,
where be leaves family. He was travelling TO
San Juan, carrying with him several thousand
dollars On the morning OF the 9TH March, be-
tween and O'Clock, he was attacked by an am
bushed party league this side of Materies, Ia

rally cut in two with blows from mdchetaS His
body was found in the road in this mRngled and
nstIlated state. The money was stolen.
IN the other instance, Daniel II Mooney, OF st.
Louis, was attacked IN a similar manner on tue
sane road He was left for dead, with his head
dreadfully cut in several places Heregained his
oo1sciOusness, however. ana reached San Juan,
bringing the news of May nard's murder.
In these, as in the other cases, redress was
sought for from the authorities, but they every
where turned cold shoulder TO their petitioners,
1d answered their just demands with pretexts
loo gross TO deceive the most ignorant.
Our Informant gives some particulars OF the
hypocutlcal manner IN which the English really
govern San Juan and the Mosquito territory,
while pretending to be under the dominion of a
trumpery king.
An English stripping, twenty or twentyone
years Of age, named Grant, is captain Of the port
