DISSATISFACTION AMONG THE GERMANS
The Milwaukee See Bote is displeased that the
BarstOw Convention adjourned without passing
resolutions against the extension of slavery.
The Oshkosh Ph9niI which was frightened
over to the BarstOw ranks by the hue and cry
respecting Know Nothingism, and the liquor law
finds the platform rather difficult to swallow 1t
says the endorsement of the Pierce Administers
ton is "very strong tobacco" and must cost
the party many votes in this intelligent state"

Kinney and His Expedition
Central America.
San Juan del Norte, Tuesday, Aug. 81, 1855.
Col Kinney has just completed the purchase,
for 1000, of all Messrs. Shepherd & Haley s
right, title and interest in the lands granted to
them in 1899, by the late Mosquito King These
lands embrace about 81, 900, 600 of acres, bound
ed on the north by Great River south by line
extending west from King Buppan near Boca del
Toro, west by the Spanish Mountains, the i'm
memorial limit between the Indian and Spanish
and American races, and having on the east a
length ofseacost extending $50 miles. The tract
otcountry thus included may be considered the
most productive of its extent upon the globe
Every variety of agricultural produce belonging
to the temperate or torrid zone, may be cultiva-
ted with success upon the lowlands of the sea
coast, or the elevated healthy plains of the into
rior. Besides the substantial staples of grain &
cattle, there is no limit to the amount of Coffee
cocoa, cochineal indigo, cotton, sugar, and to-
bacco that may be raised on its-tecming soil
Rosewood, mahogany, and other costly woods
cover a large tract; and the mineral wealth, ncu-
ding gold, silver coal and "copper" although of I'M
questionable existence yet waits for its develop
ment by the improving hand of man.

cipaity-has been purchased by Col. Kinney in
addition to his 100000 acres in the grazing and
mining district of ChontaleS which is situated on
the northeast shore of Lake Nicaragua He has
now made arrangements for the establishment
of colonies in all parts of his domains, and for
that purpose has prepared a statement of the in
duccments held out to industrious and enterpris-
ing emigrants from all quarters of the world
There can be no doubt, Judging from his former

his present scheme of colonization, as well as
his design of breaking down the insoent monop-
oily of the Transit Company, which thus far has
thrown itselfin his way. They must either come
to terms or surrender there is no alternative
While he is here, they will not dare to undertake
another bombardment.

On Sunday evening last, Messrs Fabcns Swift
and others, members of Col. Kinney ColanZa-
ton party, of whose recent settlement at San
Juan we have heretofore several times made
mention. in expectation of an early departure
for their adopted home, and acknow Judgement
of their courtesics they have received from some
of the residents of Aspinwall invited those to
whom they felt indebted or with whom their in.
tercourse had been somewhat frequent, to sup
with them at Howard's Hotel
There were of our residents about a dozen and
there were also some non-residents interested
with our frends-and altogether comprised q
very pleasant party.
After the ball was opened by Mr. Fabens, the
utmost cordiality and enthusiasm was manifest
ed; and for several hours a constant interchange
! of friendly and appropriate sentiment was con
| tnued Almost all present had somewhat to re
! spond or a toast TO offer. OF course the gentle
men who had invited the guests felt it their dut,
! TO keep "the sport moving in the speaking a
well as the drinking line, and they did set an ad
mirabe example. They very gratefully receive,

FIGHT WITH POLICE AT PANAMA
! On Thursday night last, the railroad police
hearing the confusion of a fight going on in al
alley where such rows are frequent, went thithe
! TO endeavor to suppress it. But on their arriva
| found they could not put il down without sever
means, and returned TO consult their chief, MI
Duckworth. He repaired thither immediatel
for the direction of his police. On arrival at tn
scene of disturbance he found very considerable
demonstrations of resistance, and IN the effort L
arrest those thus resisting well as the first OF
tenders, he was knocked senseless and consider
/ ably bruised. Several citizens who happened {
have gone with him came to his aid ,ourself amon
the number. Some of the rioters were consider
ably hurt, others were arrested, and Mr.. ID. an
his friends were overpowered for time by nun
bers. All who aided Mr.. d. did it with a will
and some of them had their cabeSas well battered
The next morning the ringleaGers were arrcste
and lodged in the calaboose.
1he news from the interior by latest account
sums up thus; Nicaragua has refused to apolC
gize for her late invasion of Costa Rica, and no.
tilities are imminent between the two countries
The former, harassed by internal revolution:
will make bad work of it fighting with the houl
isoing republic of Costa Rica.
: Report says that Deputy President Estrada
about TO resign, and Don Patricio Rivas, Con
mandante at San Carlos, will be elected in hi
place.
/ Walker and his invading army are on the p;
) cihc coast preparing for another attack on CIR;
NADIA, the capital of the Legitimist party in Nj
} aragua. The Liberals, you know, under Ca
tillion and Walker, only recognize Leon as ii
J capital. Notwithstanding their solicitation
: Col. Kinney has thus far refused TO co-operai
: with either fRetion, having, as he says, oth'
: business to attend TO.
