Efac Nicaragua Question.
The Washington correspondent Of the
n. Y. Courier and Enquirer, in recent
letter, says:
1T is pretty well understood, that the
proposition of Mr.. Champion reduces the
boundary ofthe SO called Mosquito King
dom, as defined by Mr.. Chaiicld; and
concedcs the port of San Juan and the left
bank Of the river of that name, to Nicara-
qua. For this concession, an indemnity
10 the Mosquito King is required. while
the right bank Of the river according 10
the proposed arrangement. is assigned TO
the State Of Costa Rica. 1t Is objected,
on the part Of Nicaragua, Which is not
admitted as a party 10 the conferences or
pending negotiations, that the payment of
indemnity to the Mosquito King would be
an acknowledgement Of a title which las
alway been denied, while the surrender
Of the navigation Of the San Juan to Costa
Rica, would be an admission Of riparian
rights, which were never seriously claim.

severely from the cxa<lions Of British
power and by dissentions resulting from

STRANGE SCENE.-An extraordinary
scene occurred lately at the church of St
Roch, at Paris. A crowded congregation
was drawn by the announcement of ser
mon from the celebrated pulpit-orator, Mr..
Dupanloup Of New Orleans. Another
prelate, the Bishop Of Autun, about to Of
ficiatc at the main altar, was solcmnly ap-
proaching. followed by some of the cer
cy. when wcll.dresscd man pushed
through tho throng, slapped the checks of
the prslate. snatcheJ his calone or half
cap from the crown Of the head, and then
performed the same feats with the Vicar
General Immediately behind. Judge of
the astonishment of the clerical procession
and the bystandcrs! The Bishop, thus
handled. betrayed no emotion Of anger, but
proceeded sedately to the altar; the Vicar
General was as little moved; his nature is
known to I've so meek and SO benign that
the kocnost Indignation became general at
his treatment. The transgressor was quick
ly consigned to police officers. 1t is stat.
ed that. on examination at the Prefecture,
he was found to be insane.
