We by no means intend to hurt the character o! the
Costalcisn army by repeating this observation OF
s our IIropexn veteran The brave, hot blood OF the

We, commune Themselves in useless anarchy or attempt to
gain their livelihood robbers and bandits, as great

AT character makes il likewise especial political ne
eefsity for Costa RIGA to live much possible in
peace and friendship with all foreign states, and to
2v avoid carefully ever! thing that could lead to
~, collision
Sss As the nest important news for the commerce and
80 intercourse Of Central America, are happy to an
poupce 10 YOU the arrival of the first vessel OF that
7, Ike Of steamers which is intended TO sail regu
ca, lary along the CentraAmercan coast from Panama
to Yataps cslng at Punta Arenas San Juan del sur
~. Realeo Union aud Libertad The steamer arrived ut
Puna Arenas the 18th inst and left for Panama on

18th q December last On the 9th OF next month she
is expected back in Puna Arenas, and will now heeP

.. and the port of Punta Arenas twice month. All
POD the States of Central America with the exception OF
~, Honduras have for period OF ten years, pledged
themselves to fixed annual contributions TO the Aneri-
" can Steamship Company.
u In the course of next month Mr. Candy expected
,l back from California with small steamer intended for
navigating the Rio Graide de Costa Rca The success
or of tie first trip will prove whether the transfer OF
ys the export trade Of Costa RIGA from Puna Arenas to
IL Tacoa in the neehborhood OF the mouth OF the Rio
& Cnpds is practicable or not On the Sarspiqu River
e the running Of steamers has not yet commenced, al
/ though Mr.. Forest is bound by contract TO make
81 his first experimental trip from Greytown TO the De
~ bsrkaOn at tie Sarapiqu on the LIST OF January
The German engTants who arrived with the sailing
ship Maria Antoinette in GreytOwn were obliged to
"A, be conveyed in small up the San Juan and Sara
De pqui River into the interior. They have moreover
been obliged for the most part on account of want
mules make the resOme forest journey 10 San jose
on foot and are said to have arrived in Alaua abOu
~ ~ miles from the capital in most desoate condition
D. 1t is now decided that Mr.. Borland is not coming Il
20 Gotta Riea during this and it is well wort
= mentioning that already three American Enycys hay
directed their steps toward Costa Rica without sng
