FROM NIcARNGUA.

KEY wEsT, June Is, 1856. .AThe correspon-
dent of the n Y. Journal of Commerce says
that the United States steam frigate Susque-
hanna. Com. Sands, with Commodore Pauld-
ing. arrived on the 18th, from San Juan which
place she left on the 10th.
Nothing very precise had been received from
General Walker, who was at Leon, awaiting
the result of the election then pending for
President of Nicaragua, The army of Costa
Rica had disappeared before the rifles of the
Americans, the cholera and the rainy season
From that side Walker had no longer cause
for anxiety. Harrera, President of Guatema-
la, had once, with 5000 men, started to act a
gainst Walker, and kept on towards Nicaragua
until BY dissertion his force was reduced to
500, by which time he thought it prudent to
go home again; so that danger had passed a
way. Honduras refused to allow the Guatc-
mala army to pass through its territory-say
ing that Walker would beat it, and then fol-
low the vaHquished into Honduras st. Sal
vador and Honduras seem friendly TO Nieara-
qua and to Walker, who is TO all appearance
firmly established on Central American soil.
A large party of armed men have recently
gone up 10 JOIN W dlker-SlIu 10 nave ilau SIX
pieces of field artillery and SIS, 900 worth OF
munitions of war, from New Orleans.
The Tinklepaugh protest seems to have been
made without cause Capt. Tarleton, of the
Eurydice, did not think of doing anything Of
ficious or offensive toward our people. On the
contrary, he believed he was rendering the A
mericans service. This | am sure Of The
fact that he permitted the armed and organiz-
ed expedition sent out in the schooner Minnie
Schatier, from New Orleans, with six field pie
cess TO pass up the river, with the proclaimed
purpose of joining Walker, shows that he had
no disposition to interfere. Let the gallant
Englishman have justice at our hands.
AT Panama all was quiet. The ST. Mary's
sloop-of-war was there-and the Commission
er sent out by our government was on the
spot. No interference was anticipated for the
future tut terrible refri5Etion should a1cat the
Panama murderers, such as for all time woulG
make an American safe wherever the Spanish
language is spoken.

FROM KANSAS,

The correspondent Of the St. Louis Demo
crat, writing from Lawrence, X T., under date
Of June l6 says, ''that young man named
Hopkins was shot early this morning, by man
named Haynau, both residents of this city
The deceased was kcntuckian, in favor Of
making Kansas free State. Mr.. Haynau and
his wife went before the Committee OF Safety
this forenoon, and made their statement. The
testimony Of the wife differed very materially
from that Of the murderer. By their state
ment it seems that the deceased went TO the
house of Mr.. Haynau, forced the door, enter
ed the house and fired several shots, none tax
ing effect. Mr.. II. then took his revolver and
shot the deceased through the heart, killing
him instantly By the testimony of these in
tercsted parties, Mr.. Haynau is justified in do
ing what he did. II was done in self-defence,
but after the man was killed, he, in cenversa-
tion with some of our citizens, declared that
he had killed s.four other men, and had his eve
upon eight Others He is now acting as dep
uty Sheriff of Douglas county, and as such
used the troops this morning in arrcsting a
man named j. Colburn, and taking him to Le-
compton what Colhurn was taken prisoner
for no one knows, there was no writ out for
him.
The L. S. troops, which have been stationed
at Topeka for the last three or four weeks, re-
ceiYcd orders TO leave there and go to Turkey
Creek day before yesterday. Perhaps ii is to
prevent the sacking of that city.
1t is reported in this city that the Kiclapoo
Rangers passed up towards Lecompton on the
north side of the river yesterday. Their ob-
ject is not known to our people.
This evening a gentleman came up on the
coach and reports that Col. Sumner with his
troops were driving the armed bands out of
Kansas, and that $50 had left for Wesport.-
They threaten to return again rs soon as the
United States forces have lett
