THOMAS BARMs's MISSION TO THE UNITED
STATES. head Of the great London financial
house Of the Barring Brothers, has been here for
some days, and still Wall street is in the dark in
regard to the special objects Of his visit. It wa
first given out, with an mir Of semi official authority
through the London journals, that he was empow-
cred with the necessary discretion for the most
pie and satisfactory settlement Of the fishery ques
ton. The report readily gained credcnce, from the
fact that another Of the Barring Brothers, Lord
Ashburton, had been 20 successful in settling the
Northeastern Boundary dispute; and also from
readiness to believe that the diplomatic abilities OF
the one brother were most likely possessed by the
other. But it very soon appeared that Mr. Thomas
Barring was not coming to settle the fishery ques
tion but that his real mission to look after the
Nicaragua Canal Company and It's stock, and the
condition of Mexican bonds in Wall street, Illinois
railroad bonds, and other State bonds, including
even the repudatiDg State Of Mississippi, with
view to very large investments In Australian gold
Since the arrival Of Mr. Barring. however, it seems
that the special object Of his VISIT Mt this particular
season of the year, is the settlement Of the Peru
Wan guano question on q pacific bssis, which will
be satisfactory to Mr.. Webster, Captain Jcwett.
the English Peruvian bond holders, Peru herself,
and even the guano making pcDguins and peicans
Of the Lobos islands. But Wall street may be mis-
taken even in this conjecture. Perhaps his object
may be to inquire into the present peculiar conii
tion Of Cuba, or the Tehuantepec treaty, or the
Presidential election, with the view Of betting
largely on the general result. Who knows7
