The late information. which We elsewhere publish,
from Central America, will be read with more than
ordinary interest. As usual, everything in that
quarter is in state Of uncertainty, particularly in
Nicaragua, where threatened revolution was pend
ing Tho Webster and Champion treaty for the
settlement Of the boundary difficulty between that
republic snd Costa Rica, continues tho theme Of
bitter discussion and dissatisfaction. The Mica
raguans not only protest against this treaty bu.
are moving in a manner that very plainly evincss
their determination not to abide by il, as viii be
observed by the letters from San Juan del Norte
and Granada correspondents, who likewise furnish
many particulars concerning the Accessory Transit
Company, the routes Of emigration to Califor-

We to- day publish two re markably interesting let
tors relative to the state affairs in the British pro-
vinces. Our Halifax correspondent states that the
good people ofNovs Scotia completely astounded
at the aeiEure ard detention Of their own fishing
vessels at Port Hood, by Hor Majsstys war steamer
Devastation, which had been specially detailed to
protect the goldfish and herring ponds thereabou.s.
The commander Of theeteamer is doing his duty
faitbfully-the waters along the coast perfectly
alive with fsh--no vessels of any kind are per-
,casksa I'D ~ al k1a-~ L.
Of the Nova Scotia smacks are bewailing their
loss, which, it is reported, already exceeds
100000. Formerly, they complained of want
Of protection to their fish, and now they have got
entirely too much of it. From Quebec our cores
pondent writes that great deal Of anxiety exists
to ascertain what will be the commercial policy Of
the Canadian government. It is generally under
stood that dierential duties will be declared in Ga.
vor Of the st Lawrence route, and increasing the
tolls on American vessels passing through the Wei
land canal, should the United States disagree to
treaty of reciprocity. The mercantile classes Of
Upper Canada are much opposed to any movement
of this kind, for the reason that they can import
British, French, and West India goods far cheaper
by way Of New York than by any other route
Many other matters Of general interest are COM
mented OF by correspondent, to which il is not
necessary to specially refer.
In another part Of this paper VIC publish COM
pete and highly entertaining history Of that pecu
larly mysterious class Of human beings known as
the Lazzaroni Of Mexico nclu ling descriptions of
their ingenious methods Of robbery, sanguinary
conflicts, bull fights, SC. Those who are fond of
studying human nature, should not fail to peruse
this extraordinary chapter.
Commercial men will fad much to interest them
in the market reports given in another page. The
stock Of sugars, ths LIST inst was below that at
the same date in 1861, and lighter than reported
in some statements which have been given to
the public in other publications. In the usual
report given to the press we ascertained that one
firm was put down for 500 hhds. which had none
at all, and LOCO boxes when they had but 800
Another party was put down loo hhds. in excess of
what they actually held, making difference of 600
hhds. snd 500 boxes. Our tables, which we have,
as far as practicable corrected and published in
trade report, will be found near the mark though,
if there were mistakes in two cases, there may
have been errors in others By the tables referred
to, will he seen that the entire stock on lst No.
vember, 1851, was equal to $4,000 hhds., and on
the lst November, 1862. TO % 400xheing differ

We insert to-day, report of the ceremonies and
sermons which took place snd were delivered in the
Church Of the Pilgrims, Brooklyn, last Sunday,
previous to the departure of the Reverend Mr. Hart
well, for China. acknowledgements of adver-
tisrg and political matter upon space, rendered
an earlier publication impossible
Our inside pages contain several letters from diff
'erent parts Of France article relative to Messrs
Webster and Winthrop and the successorship to the
State Department; theatrical and musical notices
commercial reports, and much other interesting
matter, to which we have no room to refer in de.
tail.
