Arrival Of the Steamship Uncle Sam
The Nicaragua Steamship Uncle Sam
arrived at San Francisco on Tuesday last
bringing New York dates up to Nov oath
The news from Europe is one week Ia
ter than by previous adtices.
NICARAGUA IrEMs,-Col. Parker H.
French has resigned the office of Minister
of Hacienda, and been appointed Minis
ter Plenipotentiary to the United States
Peace and good order reign in Nicaragua
The new republic is rapidly becoming
Americanized. Walker has full posses
sion of the country, his men ibeing sta
toned at every important point Great
inducements are held out to those who de-
sire to colonizc. Two English briggs Of
war were at Greytown The Isthmus
was in good condition and the transit easy.
Col. c. Ii. Gilman has been appointed
Commissary of War.
ATLANTIC ITEMs.-the n. Y. Tribune
has the following in relation to the mis-
understanding between the U. S. and
England.
"That there is some misunderstanding
between the two Cabinets, we do not de-
ny. That they construe differently the
Nicaragua treaty, was long ago known.
That they may agree to annul that trea-
ty is possible, though we trust they will
not; for there is very little in the diplo-
macy of either country so creditable or SO
truly advantageous as this treaty That
it may be thought best that Mr.. Cramp-
ton should be sent to some other Court, is
quite likely; but this Government has sent
home several Ministers-so, we presume,
has the British-and neither party dream
cd of going to war about it. Nations
nowadays make war for substantial
cause-not for a punctilie There has
been no moment when either Governm ent
even thought of going to war-none when
the good sense of the two nations would
not have held their hands had they both
been intent on it. We repeat, that the
War bubble that was blown a few days
ago was stock-jobers' and journalists
flyer, never deserving a moments consid-
eration."
X. N. CONVENTION AT CINc1NNAr1.-
A majority report was adopted by the
Convention, in which it was affirmed that
the repeal of the Missouri Compromise
was an infraction of the plightcd faith Of
the nation and that it should be restored
and failing in its restoration, Congress
should refuse te admit into the Union any
more slave states formed out of the terri
tory from which it was excluded by the
Compromise. A minority report reafir-
ming the old doctrines of the Free Soil
party was laid on the table.
EUROPEAN ITEMs.-An effort has been
made by England and France to bring
Sweden into active alliance with them.
Gen. Canrobert is in Stockholm, charged
with this mission, and Sweden is required
either to assent or refuse.
From the seat of war there is nothing
of interest. The Allies were building
huts preparatory to passing the winter
Long shots are exchanged occasionally
with the Cossack piquets and military
promenades take place to drive away en-
nui.
Is is said the Sultan will visit London
and Paris in the ensuing Spring. The
reported attempt to assassinete Louis Ma
poleon proves untrue.
Mr.. Fillmore has been visiting the
King of Holland.
Letters from Naples state that there is
no doubt but a revolutionary movement
had broken out in Sicily. The authori.
ties say the movement was not political
but occasioned by Cholera and scarcity Of
food.
