The NY. Evening Post says the acting
US. Consul at Greytown has reported to
the State Department, the fact that the Nj
caragua Trsnsi, Company, are shipping
troops BY their steamers in large numbers
u Nicaragua. They have been enlisted for
four months and their pay 10 guaranteed by
the Company.
We presume the case ID now beyond the
jurisdiction OF the United S,ates, though il
il were not. We do not know that the Gov
eminent would interfere. So many consuls.
ex.consuls. commercial agents and other
minor officials Of the Government appear to
be interested or engaged with Col. Kinney.
that !, is by no mesns an improbable sup
position, that some OF the higher ofticers o.
state may wish success TO the expedition,
and would use their influence TO prevent
any DISTRACTIONS being plsced in lis path ty
the power of the United States G Government
II is notorious aud unde MED fact, that one
ofthe main objects Of the expedition was to
enlarge TIE area Of slavery, and that being
the case, Mr.. Secretary Davis, for one at
least, would no, be likely 10 cripple the
movements Of his friend Col. Kinney, and
rs the Secretary at Warts known to be very
influential in the Cabinet. this, couple with
President Pieree's equally well known
southern procliyi,ies. would destroy any ex-
pec.s,ions tbs, the operations of,he Kinney
buccaneers would be obstructed by the pow
or of this Government.
The weak have as few friends as the poor,
and the powerful nations Of the earth being
at present completely occupied with their
own affairs, Nicaragua can expect no ally
bu, her own weakness. Ifshe were fortunate
enough 10 gain the assistance OF some ma
ton strong enough TO protect her against
this invssion Of land pirates, il would be
amusing to witness how Mr. Pierce would
set abous enforcing the Monroe doctrine.
l, would be highly credtable to this Gov
eminent IL j, interposed its own power for
the protection Of the feeble State with whom
Il has treaties Of ami,y and commerce, and
shield her from the effects Of conspiracy
which was ha tehed in this country, and We
believe that such course would receive the
decided appreciation ofthe better par, of the
people. There being however no POSSIBLE.
ty Of such IN interposition, il would not look
very well en- the page of history for ii to
say any thing agains; assistance being yield
cd from agy other quarter. Neither, howev-
or, is there much probability of the happen
ing OF the latter fact, and we can only re-
peat the hope We have formerly expressed,
that. weak asshe is, Nicaragua may be able
TO essc,ually discomft the unPrincipled in
vaders Of her soil.

LYNCH Law ~ WIscossIs.-We learn
from the Milwaukee Ss.fine! that De Bar,
the murderer, was ahou. 10 be tried at West
Bend, thai he would plead guilty. bu, that
there VAS firm resolution 10 hang him, after
he bad been fairly tried. Tie military had
been called out, but the expectation seemed
10 be that they would be unable to prevent
his being hung. The Wisconsin Legisla-
ture ought certainly either to re-ensct the
Law Of cspitai punishment, or make better
provision for the enforcement; of the exis-
ting law. The acts resulting from. II not
engenaered BY the present system, are Ut
terry demorslzing, and in every way per-
nieious to all the interests Of society. They
are calculated to incresse the number of
n,urderers IN hundred fold, and some rem
edy of the evil il i'm peratiFely demanded.
