oned. Reports have reached New Orleans

the following Items

THE NICARAGUA TRANSIT CoNpANv.-
We perceive by an advertisement which
appears elsewhere, that a company has re-
Gently been formed for transporting goods
and passengers across the country from San
Juan del Sur 10 San Juan del Norte, being
the land passage required 10 be made on
the journey to New York by the Nicaragua
route. Heretofore, we believe, the travel
by this route has frequently heen beset with
many difficulties, 10 consequence Of the
want of facilities for lrsspotaling passengers
acro-s this piece Of country. The new ar
rangement referred TO promises 10 correct
this difficulty, and also greatly to reduce
the expense Of the journey This is an
improvement which will doubtless save
much suffering hereafter, and perhaps end
in removing the prejudice that exists
against the route 10 the Atlantic via San
Juan.
THe ELrcTIoNs-S,ale elections were
held on the I'd of August as follows, Wis:
Alabama, Indiana, Kentucky, Illinois, Iowa
and Missouri. We hear only from The two
latter States, and even from them returns
are incomplei. 10 Missouri, however, there
is little doubt that Gen. Price the Dem
oeratic candidate for Governor is elected
over James Winston.
The returns from The fifth district were
falorable 10 John S. Phelps, (democrat.)
The genaral impression is that the Dem
ocrats have carried the legislature also.---
A Panama paper publishes The intelligence
That telegraphic dispatches pronounce Col.
Benton elected also. In fact The Democrats
feel saoguine for the whole State.
In Iowa, Hon. B. Hem and Hon. L. L.
Clark, both Democrats, are elected in their
respective districts, and the rest of the State
looks very lavorably for us,
