We lay before our readers this morning some
interesting documents concerning the Mosquito
Coast and the fllibuster enterprise of Col. Kin
aey. The first of thS is letter which the
Nicarsguan Minister has addressed to the Secre
tary of State. lie this paper Mr. Msrcoeta very
forcibly demonstrates that the United States has
alwsys asserted the right of Nicaragua to that
Coest, and cannot now consistently suffer il to be
invaded by lawless ent 'rprse like that under
Col Kinney. All who are in the habi! of paying
attention to Central American affairs will and
this letter well worth their attention.
We also publish an extract from Washington
journal in the confidence Of the AdmiDistr stion,
to the effect that the Executive is convinced that
KiDney's Expedition is Illegal, and that he will
take measures to prevent its setting sail. We
are glad to hear that Mr.. Pierce ia ready TO do
his duty in this matter, aud that he will adopt
the course which THE TRIBUNE has urged upon
him since this speculation was first set on foot
Perhaps if he had also taken our advice in some
other csses, 1t would have been no worse for the
courtry or for himself

A letter from Lieut. Hunter, which We pub
lish in another column, Assures US that he has
been summarily dismissed from the naval service
by the President. There is, then. no longer
any doubt upon the subject; but We still think
that such step should not have been taken, but
that Mr.. Hunter should have been brought be-
fore Court Martial and his case properly ad-
Indicated. He would probably not have got of

Toward The end of last year curious CORE
spondence took place between the Government ut Of
King Bombs, of Naples, aud bis most faithful SUBJ
iects the Jesuits. TIE Government found out
tia by the teachers in the Jesuit schools the Pope
was pronounced superior to all the sovereigns of
the earth, and that such doctrine was revolution
airy. In consequence, the Chief of the Nespoi-
tan Police sent for the Head or Provincial of the
Jesuits, ind informed him hat this sort OF tesch-
ing must be stopped, otherwise the reverend body
would be kicked out of the kingdom. The flight
ened ow Is concOcted instantly an huuble aud ser
vile petition to the King; assuring His Majesty OF
their devotion, and their sOundness in respect Of
AbsoIu.ist Monarchical principles. As evidence,
they invoked in their favor the contempt in which
they are held by all liberals, and appealed to the
doctrines held by Suarez. Bellsrmlno, and other
doctors ofthe Company, who laugh. that absolute
monarchy is the best form of Government
The black fathers we're wisely silent as to the
doctrines OF the Jesuit Malaguda and others, his
predece ssOrs, justifying the murder Of King, in
case Of his disagreement with Pope.
In one of the paragraphs of the petition, the
Il
number, ssy that Jesuits are, by maxim and
education, devoted to absolute monarchy, in
(which Catholicism can alone have secure de-
Tense and prosperity"
Itwould be curious and instructive to discover
what are the convictions, the doctrines, and the
teachings of the numerous Jesuit schools in our
own country; to what extent they insti poison into
the minds of American youth; and whether they
contradict the profession of faith Of their Euro
pean and Neapolitsn brethren. What say the
Roman Catholic clergy in the United States con-
corning the above paragraph from this truly Jes-
itical petition Can we hope that they will con-
tradct or condemn these principles, so ex-
pressed Do they agree with the Fathers, or
have they been favored with some new AMI con-
trary light

Tha. tedious and proy individual, the Ed
itor of Harpers Magazine, discusses at awful
length the topics Of the war. In the Aux of his
yerbosty, he of course, finds all manner Of fault
with the conductors of the daily pre,s, because
they don't view the universe through his solemn
old spectscles We extract favorable specimen
Of his essay:
Men sittiBg in their editorial closets, men who
have never field OF battle or learned even the
elphsbet OF military science, do not hesitate TO criti
cise the movements OF the allied armies"
On the other hand, men sitting at their m )nthly
editorial tables, who, on their own confession,
cannot tell whether the military criticisms of the
daily press are just and true or not do no! hest.
tate TO express pompous opinions against them,
and even to affirm that the writers know nothing Of
their subject. Perhaps the Editor Of Harper is
aware who these writers are and for the sake Of
his verscity We hope he lie. But We can tell him,
with regard to some Of the military criticisms be
complains of, that they not only are not the pro-
duction ofwrters ignorant Of the science and prac-
tice of war, but that their remarkable knowledge
and penetration have caused their authorship TO
be quite generally attributed to some of the most
distinguished military men known TO American
readers. From what pen or pens they really do
proceed il is Of course not our business to DISCLOSE
but j. the Editor of Harper has found it out, the
cpriOus-and they are not few-may perhaps
ascertain on application to him. We can assure
them that lie is under 10 Obligation to keep the
