We are gratified I, notice that the cleo
Tors of New Haven, who are opposed to
the measures Of the present National Ad-
uninistralion, have united on a tickle, for
town officers. On th. LIST Monday ia April,
and again at the city election in June, the
sham democracy elected their candidates
'here, simply because the friends of Free
dom were divided on unimportaut issues.
Whether a different result ensued on Mon.
day last, from union Of forces, We do not,
at This present writing, know; but we do
know that il is the height Of folly Cor those
who agree on the great issue now before
the country, to be divided by unessen,ial
differences. Certainly, our friends in New
Haven deserve success, whetb-r.they have
secured it or not. We trus, their example
will be followed elsewhere throughout the
State where jealousy has existed between
Wings, Americans, and free democrats.
We hope likewise TO see a call ere long

posed to the further extension Of Slavery,

From Nicarrsua-Capture OF Granada by

Nicaragua line, arrived on Saturday after
noon. with a large number of passengers
and S272, 65l in treasure, from San Fran.
cisco. She brings important ne rs from
Cen,ral America; a new paper, f.. Neara
sseusc. published in Col. Walkers interest
at Granada. says that on the morning Of the
lI,H inst, the Colonel, whose little army
had been greatly reinforced by recruits
from San Francisco, made m attack upon
Granada and captured tina, city. On the
2ad Of October, General Corral, commander
Of the Government forces, surrendered to
Walker, and a treaty of peace was there
upon formally signed and ratified. Besides
these exciting events, the Star IF The West
reports that when The steamer San Carlos.
with New York passengers, arrived before
the fort al the junction of the River San
Juan and Fort Nicaragua. she Was fired in
to, and lady aud child instantly killed.
Again, on the 10Th ult., murderous at
tack was made by the Government troops
on the returning California passengers at
Virgin Bay. by which four were killed and
eight severely wounded. These outrages.
it is supposed, were committed out Of re-
venge for Walkers late success. General
Walker as he is now called, is the hero
upon which all eyes are turned. The citi-
gems Of Granada rendered him the Presiden-
cy Of the Republic after his victory. bu. he
declined to accept the office. Governor
kinney. for the nonce, seem. to have fallen
into the shade.

We often hear it suggested that liquor Of
various kinds is still sold in our village.
that the Prohibitory law is to a great ex-
tent a dead. letter, and that any body that
wants the '.good creature" can find it, etc.
Perhaps tits 50 /; but we are incredulous.
At any rate, there is no open erog- shop in
Litchfrld, and if liquor is sold at ali, it lie
18th the same caution that men ga,ble.
steal, or commit any other crime. Men are
very seldom seen in our streets nnder the
influence of Intoxicating drinks, and many
families that were poor and wretcl.ed before
the law went into effect are now comfort
able and happy. Where formerly sub,er-
ranean quarre!s and blasphemies annoyed
The passer-by almost every night, all is now
quiet and peaceful. Ii the law is violated
>t"aIthily, it has nevertheless. accomplish
ed enough good to recompense its advocates
for a their labor to obtain it.
But if any of our citizens are tempted for
the sake of gain, TO violate this wholesome
law, let us assure them that they will event
ually be discovered, and when justice does
overtake them they will find it losing bu-
sine;s. However much they may crafty
some mems appstites. they gain the respect
and confidence Of none but will receive
the censure Of the good and the upb.aidings
Of their own better judgment
SO long as men are d-prsved, we do no.,
expect to see the Maine law perfectly obey
ed, any more than we do the laws against
gambling, theft and adultery, hut we do ex-
pect to sre offences against it as vigorously
prosecuted as against amy other crime.
