of the perseyerng flsehoods Of the New York
Tribune has been that of connecting Attorney General
Cushing with the Central American Land and Mining
Company Although this has been repeatedly denied over
General Cushngs personal authority yet does the Tribune
continue on all occasions to it. The following
article from the New York Courier and Enquirer is
apparently an authorized statement from the persons really
interested in the company and such lay before
the readers the DeE We do not of course expect the
Tribune do General Cushing the justice 70 say that its
allegation in reference to himself is false because has al
ready failed to do soust it did when Mr. Sidney Web
ser authorized the Boston Post to deny similar state
ment in the Tribune in reference to himself but the
story might be believed in other quarters right that it
should be again contradcted
The Tribune builds lofty pyramid of misrepresentation
ON very slender of truth concerning the Central
American Land and Mining Company The stockholders of
the company WILL perceive from an advertisement in
city paper hold annual meeting Monday next In
the time may with propriety be stated that il not
determined Gen. Shields Of Illinois will take the lead in
the colonization of the Mosquito coast il settled that
Senator Cooper of will not repair hther as
its agent That gentleman has been recently called to the
West by family bereavement and is not able at this time
give his attention to matters of this character 1t Is not
true that the Attorney General of the United States is d
recng spirit in the company He has nothing whatever to
the enterprise The charge has been again and again
contradiced his personal authority and has peen su-
GENTLY dsproved BY the very evidence cited to sustain IT.
The destruction Greyown not ordered for the benefit
of company but the contrary was deeply regretted
and censured by those most interested in it, What insruc-
tons have been given Messs Wheeler and Fabens in ref
to the the American company whether
any mt all, must be matter of conjecture.
Wben the statement made that the grant OF portion
OF the Mosquito territory Mesrs Shepherd Haley has
bcen repeatedly disowned by the English authorities
would better become who speaks confidently the
AZ, T~,l, In fv tlo Eufr-
sh authorities to whom he refers Ifhe refers to the British
minister Washington to any member OF the present
government in England he is think, in error On the
contrary we believe the fact be that the British govern
ment has informally sanctioned the grant and expressed its
qualification that about be made the instrument for
releasing it from obligations protector of the Mosquito
Indians.
sThere is we presume truth in the Tribunes assertion
that our spectators hope by another to
cure the recognition of by Nicaragua Costa Rca and
then coonsts into the country by the wealth of its
mines and the fertility of its SOIL
81 these objects shall be accomplished do not perceive
that either of the States named will have of complaint
and they satisfied why should their self constituted
advocates protest in their behalf? The wealth of its
mines and the fertility Of its soil ought to constitute very
good basis Of settlement
s'The Tribune the northern people against the
scheme as covert project for slave State But why
should the territory proposed to be settled under the
pice of this company become State Of this Union
Supposng all the plans Of the company whether actual
only imputed be carried into effect the nature Of Its
nexon with this government will remain to be settled
principles which will have been determined long before any
question concerning the State of Mosquito arise
