10 By the last foreign news we are ad-
vised of the probable termination in Eng
land, Of the DERBY administration, through
the general resignation of the British min
istry. In the future cabinet, it is thought
that there muS.be coalition made a mix
lure made of Wings, Poeli,es, Moderates
and Radicals, though in what proportion
cannot be determined. Lord Aberdeen has
been spoken of to take the lead in the Lords,
and Mr.. Gladstone in the Commons. In
France, everything appears quiet, and the
general news is NOT of much importance
The new Emperor of the French has been
officially recognized by the governments oil

Flour at Portland, I'VE learn from per
sons direct from the Willamette valley, that

IS per cwt. This is something of reduc-
ton from S25 per cwt.--the price at which
il has been selling during the principal
part of the present fall and winter in that
part of the territory. This decline is at
iributable TO the immense quanti,y shipped
from the Atlantic to the Pacific coast during
the present season. Northern Oregon, we

THE PARKERSBURG LOCOFOCo CON
VENTION

The Delegates from this county to the Conven-
ton that assembled in Parkersbnrg, on Monday
OF last week, returned on Saturday night last
This session, we learn, was protracted one and
anything but harmonious. We have not the pro-
ceedings of the Convention, but learn by letter
that at the end of the third day John F. Snod-
grass of Wood county, unanimously nomi-
mated as the candidate for Congress. the Dele
gates from che counties of Mason, Putnam, Ka-
nawha, and part of Harrison having withdrawn
from the Convention. Mr.. Lewis, of Harrison
left Parkersburg on Wednesday evening utter
announcing himself an independent candidate
Mr.. Snodgrass accepts the nomination of the
Convention. Some rich scenes, we are told, were
enacted in the Convention by the .harmonious
Democracy" We shall have them duly de-
scribed in the next Parkersburg Gazette. Mr..
Carlisle, we learn will take the field as au indie
pendent candidates; SO it is probable that our De-
mocratic friends in the district, will have at
least three candidates on the track at this time.
There must be a Wing candidate out, and as we
cannot under any circumstances, be candidate
this time, and as our friend General Smith is too
much engaged in attending to his young family
to think about any office, we will take the lber-
ty of suggesting A. M. Sterret. ESQ.,, of the
Parkersburg Gazette, as suitable candidate to
represent this District in the next United States
Congress. -Kana0ha Republican.

Correspondence of the New York Herald.

WASHINGTON, April 3-Midnight.
Dispatches have been received at the State
Department from Capt. Hollis, by which the
facts in regard to the recent coup detot of the
Cyans are fully disclosed 1t appears that the so
called town of San Juan is under the control of
persons frem all countries-ours among the rest
who have sworn allegi glance the Mosquito King
Our government does not recognise his red
skinned majesty and since the Brit sh protecto-
rate has been abandoned, the town reverts to the
Nicaraguan government, under which the Ame-
rican Transit Company have full power by
their charter to retain possession of the premises
from whiah they've sought to be arbitrarily
elected
The Cyane was sent there to protect the rights
and property of American citizens, and Captai n
Hollis has done his dutv--no more and no less
His course meets the unqualified approval of
General Pierce, and further orders of smiIa r.
tenor to those under which the Cyans has acted,
will be forthwith despatched. The President
will seize this opportunity put our relations with
Central America. so far the Mosquito King,
the British protectorate and the municipality of
San Juan are concerned, on we'll defined, explicit
and permanent basis.
The Cyane has made a good beginning. It
will be sustained and followed out if necessary,
for it is we'll understood that no other than per-
emptory course is effectual ia that quarter.-
Great Britain cannot have the face to demur,
even ii she were so inclined because this me-
thod of acting first and negotiating afterwards is
only parallel with her own policy in Central
American affairs
There is rumor in the city tonight, which
comes by way of Charleston, that an engagement
has taken place off San Juan between the Cyane
and an English sloop of war, in which the lat.
ter was captured after sharp contsat with seri i.
Gus loss on both sides. The story is discredted
here, as the dates from San Juan, by Steamer at
New York. are more recent than could have be en-
received ut Charleston by any sailing vessel.
