Mosquito King If the soil did not originally
belong to the said King it cannot now belong
to Col. Kinney, though he has bought it. What
next? Col. Walker complains that Marcy is
seconding the designs of the British on the
Pacific side against the interests of American
colonization and if it be true that Col.
Wheeler is authorized to discoantenance the
purchase and gubernatorial authority OF Col.
Kinney, our Premier is as decidedly against
American Interests on the Atlantic side OF the
isthmus. We apprehend that the Accessory
Transit Company have great deal to do with
this mbroglio, and that they are considerably
suspicious Of the growing influence and ulti-
mate designs of the three Colonels-Kinney,
Walker and Fabens But what next?
According to the drift of the late news we
should advise Marcy, Marcoleta and Mr.. J. L.
White to compromise their difficulties with
Kinney, Walker and Fabens as soon as posi-
BILE. for there is no telling what may happen
from the start which these three Colonies have
taken for new republic. They only want
few hundred men to make clean job at once
of the whole of Central America.
SANTA Annals observation-disclosures No
wHERE-BAD News TO THE MONEY LENDERS
Our last advices from Washington inform us
that the Secretary of State has decided (and
he could decide no other way0 that those per-
sons who have been foolish enough to lend
money to Santa Anna upon the security of the
three millions still owing to Mexico under the
Gadsden treaty, need not look to Washington
for relief, but must depend upon the Mexican
government Secretary Guthrie is required to
pay over the money, when due, to the existing
government in Mexico, and Mexico is the
place, therefore; for these confidence men of
Fl. S. H.
We are further informed that there have
been quite a number of lawyers Gncluding
Prince John Van Buren,, as chairman,) occu-
pied with Marcy of late upon this unfortunate
business. in behalf of the anxious capitalists
who ventured to lend Santa Anna a few thou
sands, tens of thousands, or hundreds Of thou
sands, upon the basis Of those three millions
aforesaid. 1t may be that Santa Anna has
thus secured one, two, three, four or five mil
lions, and made off with it, and we very much
fear that these discoveries will raise breeze
in Wall street. The Bible says, "Put not
your trust in princes" Oh! that our Mexican
financiers would read the Bible.
THE CHEvALIER WEBB CAVES IN.-Our vene-
rable contemporary Of the Courier and Enquirer,
the Chevalier James Watson Webb, informs us
that it was not himself but his associate, that
proposed "to think over" the question of join
ing the Syracuse negro-worshipping tusionists
upon their platform Of the Wilmot proviso.
Without needing much time "to think over
the subject, our flexible Chevalier, in his own
right, says that
doubt among honest and right minded uen as to their
precisely as they oesire We think our policy was Oest

usual, with the politeness OF a French dancing

be expected in the Canal Board; though Like
the old rat we begin to suspect there is cat
playing postum in the bottom of the meal tub.
We dare say that these canal piekings of the
nine million fund may have something to do
with all these gum elastic manifestations of
Wall street patriotism. Keep to the right, and
welk your horses over the bridge.
NEWSPAPER NoaINEEs.-A Sunday paper
enumerates the individuals connected with the
press who have obtained Office of late years,
including among the number B aker, police
reporter for the HERALp" 1t adds that /" the
HERALD is doing its best to force upon the peo-
pie the nomination of DR.. Connery, the fore
man of it's job Office, as one Of the Coroners.r
1t is hardly worth while to contradict state
ment in such a journal as the one from which
the above extract is made But it may be OBJ
served that it is not fair to class 90 Baker, po-
lice reporter for the HERALD" with Noah,
Webb, Herrick, O'Sullivan, the Brookses, Ray
mond, Briggs, and others, who have obtained
political offices through their position on the
press. Mr.. Baker created his office, which is
not political, nor in the gift of the people: he
obtained it without aid from this journal, and
ought not to be displaced from it by any politi-
cal intrigue. 1t is admitted on all hands that
he has rendered signal service to the public
AS to Mr.. Connery, it is true, we believe, that he
has obtained nomination for Coroner; but
this journal has never said word to recon-
mend him. If he was nominated, it was because
the parties who had the matter in hand thought
him fit for the office; and if he is elected, it
will be because the people concur in that view
If parties will elect good practical men for
Office we shall crfainlu infernose n q nhinotian
