UIoN-Senor Marcoleta, the Nicaraguau Minis
ter, with the advice and assistance Of his active
lawyer, Mr.. Jo White, appears to be resolved
to worry and exhaust Col. Kinney through eur
courts of law into the Abandonment of his IA
vorite scheme, the Yankee colonization and
armed occupation Of the fertile but uncultivated
lands of Nicaragua. 1t has been said that the
estimates Of Col. Kinney comprehend-First,
revolution in Nicaragua, and new govern
ment under the control of his settlers from the
United States; secondly, the conquest Of the
adjoining States, which would give the con-
querors The command of the Nicaragua route to
California and the whole Central American
confederation third, the annexation, d la
Texas of the whole batch to the United States,
with Col. Kinney as their first Senator to
Washington and their first candidate for the
Presidency, la Sam Houston.
The scheme is very tempting one upon this
programme, it must be admitted; bat, even
with the consent of Senior Marcoleta, there are
so many distractions to it's completion that it
would probably require twenty or twenty five
years to carry it out. Col. Kinney has, no
doubt, invested, expended and lost good deal
of money in this enterprise already; but to
save the remnant of his capital, we would ad-
wise him to relinquish in toto this Nicara-
qua expedition and turn his eyes aud footste ps
towards Kansas That's the place for him,
With his Texas experience as land Spectator
ard cattle raiser, he might at once take the
wind out Of the sails Of Governor Reeder aud
Col. Forney in Kansas and come back to Wash
ington, in the course OF four or five years a
Senator full blown, and "live' candidate
for the succession. Let CO.. Kinney, therefore,
give up this wild goose chase to Nicaragua
and move out with his volunteers to settle the
disturbances between Reeder aud his Kitchen
Cabinet free soil land spectators, aud that ter
rible class of adventurers called by the said
Governor i" the border ruffans" of Missouri.
The climate of Kansas is wholesome, the soil
is good, the country is beautiful and pictur-
esque-in few years it will be blest with all
the comforts OF civilized society, including
theatres, operas, masked balls, French furni-
ture and the --latest Partisan fashions. OF
course, then, for new country, Kansas is the
place for young bride from the Fifth avenue
for there, in addition to the advantages emu
merated, she will still be convenient to Mia
CARA, Saratoga and New York in the summer
For the sake of peace, then, in Kansas; for his
own sake; end above all, for the sake Of the
young Fifth avenue belle whose fortunes here
after are to be identified with those Of Colonel
Kinney, we urge him to abandon the Nicara-
qua expedition, and to 60 out to Kansas, and
bring all his means and energies to bear upon
the settlement of the important question there
Of "squatter sovereignty" What says Col
Kinney?

ARCHBISHOP HUGHES AND SENATOR BRooKs-
We sha! give our full and deliberate opinion on
this interesting, important, amusing, and in
some measure silly controversy in day or two.
Ithas been complete budget of blunders, to say
the least Of it, and the principal blunders have
been made on the Brooks side Of the question
The great fact put forth by Brooks Was that
property to the amount Of five millions II
Mr.. Brooks had taken the trouble to look into
the United States census he would have seen
that the whole of the property owned by the
Catholic church in this country does not amount
to more than eight millions. According to the
statement of the Bishop, the church property in
his hands dwindles down from the five millions
at which it is calculated by Senator Brooks, to
something less than half million, which is no
doubt its correct value. The Bishop has never
denied his owning the fee simple of this pro
perty, although he contends il is merely il the
pature of trust for the different congrega
tions. The principal point in dispute was t.
exact value and on this Brooks has committed
a great macy blupders aud exagger ised the
amount hey ond all reasonable dimensions
He has been acting after the fashion Of the pal
try politicians Of the day, who dist1rt simple
facts into atrocious fnlscbood5 to secure srt,
purposes and bring themselves prominently be-
fore the public. The ntrovcrsy as il now
stands may be considered il tue lght of a
draws game Both Of The comsatants retire
from the field with colors flying and trumpets
sounding, but both at the same time rather
damaged by the melee. The whole affair is in
short sort Of Ssanwix Hall rough and tumble
scrimmage, without the vulgarity, the blood
she'd, or the atrociy Of that memorable coaaict.

GOOD SENSE FASHION.

The New York Times, in the course
Of an article under tho head Of IA
column Of talk for Young Men on small
wages" has this plain and sensible par
agraph on the subject Of dress.
"Thcn as to drcss-it is great non
sense to say that all must dress fashicn-
ably or lose caste. sl4 Il. s
What is the fashion? Who wears a
fashionable coat, and how do you know
it is the fashion? Tell us Of one SUBJ
stantial merchant, one thrifty Mechanic,
one successful lawyer, or one, gentleman
who wears it, and we will name ten Of
each equally noted and successful who
do not, and ten fops that you equally
dcspise that do. The fashion in New
York for. men inst nov. reaulres a clean
decent garment, and no patches omit
no more, no less. A lady might wear
her srandmother's shawl in Broadway
and not be noticed. The timid ones,
and those just in from other cities and
villages, alone, arc worried about their
looks when they wear last years bon
nets to the lecture or to church. Let
the young initiate the substantial and
common sensible, rather than those who
are keeping up appearances at a sacri-
flee. Ii will be a saving in this item.

letters Of the lover Of her youthful days,
and finds heaps Of his, and also those
she had written, in the vain hope of OBJ
tanning an explanation Of his silence.
:. Twenty years Of disappointment were
forgotten in reading the ardent express
sions Of affection and devotion which
they breathcd. She was young again,
and her heart had known no care; it
was the spring-timc of her life. She
took those letters with her and went TO
Paris.
She sought information Of the Min
lister of War, Of him who was Liohten-
ant in the cavalry in 1884. The au-
thoritles replied that the Lieutenant of
that time was now Commanding Gene
ral, and that he was stationed in one of
the southern departments. The widow
wrote to the General that she was at
Paris, and desired to see him. He OBJ
tanned leave of absence, and hastened
to meet the lady. Allis explained,a and
our lovers are married. 10 be sure,
tho General is no longer young; but
his manners have the same charm, and
his elegance and style lessons his appa-
rent age. The lady carries her mad
missiblc forty years as if they numbered
but thirty! The latter twenty years
Of their lives are likely to be happier
than either of the first.

SUNDAY IN MOBILE.

worst features was their total disregard
Of the great day Of worship and rest.

the public entrances to those places, as
to make them impossible for ladies on

Of tho nuisance. Yesterday, this ordi-
