THE LAST PLOT OF THE ENEMY

The Union does not see fit to reply to the
queries We addressed to it some days since, re-
specting the notorious enterprise of which Col.
Kinney is to be the chief engineer, in Central
America. We are disappointed, for we hoped 20
learn how the rescinded and exploded Mosquito
grants are to be made valid over territory never
belonging to the grantOr; how the United States
are to sanction the violent occupation Of the
country Of three friendly republics and how we
are to plant colony, and establish new and in-
Dependent State in Central America without vio-
lasDg the Clayton-Bulwer Treaty. On none of
these points does the organ Ct the Admins
tration vOuchsafe any light; but instead of this,

which the following is a portion:
1.-THE results Of this colonization are plain and in
evitsble. Commencing at the port of San j dap del
Norte, which the English call Greytovn,) aud there
strengthening itself for expansion, the colony viii
room become master Of the route to the Poetic, aud
with that line for the base OF its oper 4tious will

lstbnus Of Panama, and nortbward, either with or
Without the consent Of the intermediate States until
,oe whole Of North America lying south of the

In this the piratical purposes of the planners
OF this undertaking are announced with degree
OF GOODNESS quite in keeping with the present
state Of the weather. They tell us that they de-
sign first to conquer and annihiIate Nicaragua;
then to swallow Costa Rica and northern New
Grenada on the one hand, and Honduras, Ga.te-
msla, San Salvador and Mexico on the o,hsr.

The principal business of Importance trans
acted in the Board Of Councilnen last evening
was the proposition of Councilman Kennedy, to
appropriate the sun of $1,000 for the relief of
the poor during the ensuing winter. Me-. K. in
abrief speech, alluded to the prospect of dssress
enorg the laboriDg classes, arising from want Of
employment, and the usefulness Of she "Associa-
"tion for melorstiDg the condition of the Poor"
Last year, the society, he said, had paid ont over
$4,000 to the poor, but this year the subscrip-
tons to the fund of the society fell short. In
conc fusion he offered resolution, which was ua-
inou.ly adopted, directing the Controller to
draw his warrant for the ,um of $40, 600 in favor
of the President of the above mentioned Asso-
citation; said amount to be appropriated for the
purposes of the society.
