An officer of the army Just arrived from the West,

Our correspondents at San Juan (Greytown),
writing on 18th and 18th OF August state that the
cholera had abated in Nicaragua, but not until 1t
had swept away nearly all the government forces,
and that the remainder Of the troops had been cen
ked at Granada. The epidemic had also visited
LEON, and the revolutionary army suffered much
kom it's attacks. The Costa Rcans kept mp strict
quarantine both by land and water. The best
interests of Nicaragua are represented as IN
very perilous position. Threatened with Colonel
kinneys troops from the Atlantic, Colonel
Walkers from the Pacific, with her own
revolutionists Oh the North, and the peo-
pie Of Costa RIGA hostile on the south, her
integral moral power was fast declining. The &c
cess0ry Transit Company had party Vi armed men

ments. Kinney had from eighteen to twenty sol
ssiers with him on the l7th and il il said they
rather responding in their hopes, and looking anx
ssusly for reinforcemeuts from the United States.
The natives took the matter quietly. IT il said that
the Ncaraguan government will disavow the
hand claim Of the Colonel His brig, the HUI

lionel Kinney had made an attack OH Rivas. The
revolutonists from Leon had attacked Managua, but
were repulsed. Greytown trebuiiD was booking
well and all the sufferers by the late tombardmcnt,
IRON the British Vice Consul downwards, were pre-
pairing to submit their claim for damages 70 Con
