Mr. Marcy INSTRUCTIONS TO Mr.. WmRIER-
INDEMNITY TO BE DEMANDED OF NICARAGUA
We publish this morning, letter Of instruc,
lions from Mr.. Marcy to Mr.. Wheeler, the United
States Charge d'Affaires to Nicaragua, in regard
to the course which he is to pursue towards the
government of that State. 1t Is dated Novem-
Der g. 1855, and is to form, we understand, one
of the many numerous documents that will be
produced on the trial of George b. Hall and
others charged with being engaged In an
armed expedition against Nicaragua. The
Secretary Of State commences by expressing his
regret at what he calls " the miserable condi-
don" of that country, and the perplexing duties
that in consequence thereof devolye upon our
government. He then announces our policy
of neutrality as concerns the affairs of other
nations, but adds that we have certain duties
"a perform towards our citizens who may be
resident within or passing through the terrific.
ries OF Nicaragua. Now, on this subject we
agree with Mr.. Marcy, and only wonder that
appearing to know his duty so well in this
respect, he did not fulfil it ut the prof. time
On the sth Of November he said the recent
murders and outrages committed upon our
citizens there must be atoned for by the autho-
rites, but with characteristic disregard and
neglect of the duty incumbent upon him, in
stead Of promptly demanding that atonement

leaves Il for settlement In the uncertain future.
when Nicaragua has responsible govern
nentr he informs Mr.. Wheeler a due mea-
sure Of satisfaction viii be demanded Yet,
when writing this letter, he knew that o
government existed in Nicaragua, and although
we called upon him at the time to take imme-
date steps towards securing indemnity for the
sufferers and the punishment of the offenders,
up to this time nothing has been, nor ia It likely
that anything will be done while Mr.. Marcy
occupies his present position.
There are, or rather were two parties in Nj
caragua-the aristocratic and the democratic
between which desperate and bloody conflict
was waged for the ascendency. In that con-
fict the aristocratic party, which had previous
ly held the reins of government, were over
thrown and new order of things was estab-
lished by the victors. During the struggle Sc
veral of our citizens were murdered by the
aristocratic party while passing through Mica
ragua, one instance of which is doubtless still
fresh in the minds of our readers 1t was that
of a woman who with her child, was killed in
the cabin Of an American steamer on the lake,
by some OF the troops of the aristocratic party.
We invited the particular consideration of our
government to this case, and demanded that
instant reparation should be made by the 60.
vernment Of Nicaragua for that and other out.
RACES committed upon our people.
There is now an established government 10
Nicaragua "a government of laws, recognized
by the people, performing all the functions
that belong to q thoroughly constituted and or
gained government; the defeated party have
long since submitted to its authority, peace
has been restored, and commerce and trade, il
not in q fourishiDg condition, are carried on
in perfect security under governmental pro-
lection. What more does Mr.. Marcy require !?
If Nicaragua is, to use his own language, in a
miserable condition" can he point to period
In its history when it was better than it is now,
or when its government had more the appear
ance Of stability and strength? When, in his
opinion, will the time arrive for the punish
ment of the offenders and the naturalization
OF the sufferers? Mr.. Marcy, Mr.. Marcy, don't
show your patched breeches in every thing
you do.

FILLMORE a Member.

The statement made at Philadelphia.
that Mr.. FILLMORE was not member OF
the American party, has been fatty con-
tradicted by the President of the Council
No. III of Buffalo, N. Y, who has Civ
en- the assurance that he himself was
present when the obligation of each Of
the degrees was administered to Mr. Fill
more, and that he is a member of the
Know-nothing Order in good standing.
However much we may have before
admired Mr.. Fillmore, this one act of
his has obliterated all our kind feelings
for the man. We had placed a much
higher estimate upon his character, than
to believe for one moment that he had
joined such an unholy alliance with men,
whose purposes and objects are to deprive
a certain class of our fello w-citizens, ma
tive and adopted, of the rights guaran-
teed to them by the Constitution and
Laws of our country --HaiyIand Repub-

Andrew Jackson Donelson.

The Washington Star in noticing this
gentleman, who has been chosen by the
Philadelphia Know-nothing Convention
to play second fiddle to Willard Fillmore,
says:
:" He resided here for many years, and
is well remembered, especially on account
of General Jackson's memorable SAYING,
that everybody had his pest: for his part,
if it were not for Donelson, he should
have nothing in the world to trouble
him. The truth is, Donelson was his
Monsieur Mulapropos. Being a family
connection of his wife, the General was
forced to tolerate him about him, and to
grin aud bear, with all the philosophy
he could muster, the scrapes and difficult
ties into which Donelson was constantly
getting him. Donelson's most remark
able trait is an abiding want of common
sense, which has prevented him, notwith-
standing the prestige of his relationship
to the wife Of jackson, from having the
least political weight where he is person
ally known.
He rated from the Democratic party
because President Pierce refused to take
him and certain members of his family,
for office, at his own valuation. For
months before he turned up a Know-no-
thing, the locofocos of Nashville were
cracking jokes about his lamentations
over his failure to get what he asked of
the Administration, and the undguifed
and impotent personal abuse showered
by him at the street corners for the bene-
fit of street corner audiences, on the
President. His nomination is worth to
the Know-nothing cause in Tennessee
at least clear loss of some 2, 800 votes
for the mental and political calibre of
Major Andrew jackson Donelson, is
well known throughout portions of that

EXECUTION AT CENTREvILLE, MD.
Friday last, negro Saul, convicted of the
murder of Mr. Porter, was hung at Cen
treyillo, Nd, in the presence of some
four thousand persons. 1t appears that
when the drop fell the rope broke and
the criminal fell heavily to the ground.
The Times of Saturday says:
The fall hurt him considerably but he
recovered somewhat, and engaged earn
estly in prayer After doubling the
rope and rearranging the scaffold he was
again led up, but required the assistance
OF two men to support him up the steps.
The moose was again adjusted, the droI
fell, and the wretched being was launch
ed into eternity. He continued to pray
until the drop fell. Owing to doubling
the rope and the short fall (about twelve
inches) his death struggles from strangu-
lation were horrible indeed, and contin-
ued at intervals for about ten minutes.
He made no confession, but reiterated
a previous statement that he started with
companion, now in the penitentiary, to
rob Mr.. Porter, but was taken with a fit,
and was unconscious until after the muir.
der was committed. On Friday morn
ing, on entering his cells, the sheriff
found that he had succeeded in removing
the irons from his legs. The Time,
concludes its notice Of the execution by
saying:
At the time of our writing, 3 p. NJ.
friday the street and public house il
front of our Office is full Of drunken, bias.
pheming men, and broken heads, black
eyes, and bloody noses are to be seen il
profusion. The great majority of them
we are glad to say for the credit of oul
county, are from distance.

Mr.. Blair and the Merchants Of Bal

Mr.. 7. p. Blair, the president of the

The attendance was very large, and the
proceedings of the meeting characterized
by perfect harmony and unanimity Of
