In relation to the loss of Dowell's pack

O'Clock on the morning of the 25th of Feb

given but with no avail attribute the
loss to carelessness on the part of persons
having the animals in charge. At the

The BEITIsH Press AND THE CENTRAL
AMERICAN QUEsrIoN-A COMPROMISE Pro
PosER-We published on Sunday several
extracts from the London newspaper press
on the central American question. That
from the london Times is, unexpectedly,
generous and conciliatory; and the hat-foot-
ed protocol Of the "Thunderer for pa
cifc settlement Of this warlike entangle-
ment is a refreshing novelty in its way
The London Times we repeat its own
words } manfully says
Let US frankly give up our questionable
right to the Mosquito protectorate and the
island of Ruatan, aud, by way Of deliver
ing ourselves of the whole embarrassment
at once and forever, throw the worthless
settlement Of Belize into the bargain. In
return, let US call upon the American gov
ernment not only to observe its portion Of
the treaty, in respect Of which We have
hitherto had nothing to complain, but also
to root out the gang Of pirates and muir
derers who have taken forcible possession
Of the State Of Nicaragua, and hold it in
defiance Of the will Of both countries
Such m example, would do more to carry
out the intention Of the treaty than any
amount of protection to drunken savages oil
occupation Of worthless Islands,"
This arrangement, if duly ratified and
carried out between the two governments
would certainly make clean work Of the
whole business but we agree with tht
Lonlon Globe that the proposal to root
out" that alleged "gang of pirates ant
murderers is Just the point where thu
shoe would pinch. We could do no sucl
thing. Those men have expatriaied them
selves. They are no longer citizens Of The
i United States. We are no longer responsi
BILE for their nets and if upon call from
one native revolutionary party in Nicara
qua, acting against another such party
Gen. Walker aud his followers have gon'
and conquered the country, it is an anail
to be settled by the sovereign people o
Nicaragua. If they consent to bette
government than they have ever had befor
we have not the right to interpose or t
complain. The Clayton-Bulwer treaty
simply binds the United States governmen
against all attempts TO colonizc or to fortif,
any portion Of the territories Of Contra
| America.

BS We copy the following from the
Washington correspondent of the San
Francisco Herald.of Feb. 10th:
"The committee on Foreign Relations is
composed of intelligent, prudent and con-
servative gentlemen, who will not rashly
plunge the country into war, and yet who
will not be ready to preserve peace at the
sacrifice Of the honor or Of the interests Of
the country. Among the subjects to come
before the Commilte of Foreign Relations,
is that Of the purchase by the United
States of the rights in Oregon and Wash,
ington Territories Of the Hudson's Bay and
the Puget Sound Agricultural Companies.
| think the Committee is favorably disposed
towards this measure, and that it can Le
carried during the present session with tile
exercise of due diligence and tact by the
British parties interested. An earnest
push should be made for the lconsummation
of this important scheme at the present ses'
sion--for if it fails now, there is reason tc
fear it cannot be presented so favorably
again for years to come. The proposed
purchase would put an end to the serious
disturbances now occasionally occurring il
the Territories named, between our people
and subjects of Queen Vic, growing ou
of the anomalous possessions OF the lattel
within American jurisdiction"

was really lovely fair, with indescri-

BY some of the ehefsd d euvs Of Ital-

was dressed in the usual fashion of
trousers on trousers, the last pair being
of such stiff brocade that if put stand
ing upright in the middle OF the room
there they would remain. Her hair
was curled, not plated, and she was
literally covered with diamonds. She
was quiet in her manner, and seemed
detected. She was most anxious to
hear about European customs. What
seemed to surprise her rmost was that
we took the trouble to undress every
night when going to bel; and she as
ked me was it true we put on long
white dress to pass the night ins All
Persian women are astonished at this
custom, and are quite unable to ac-
count for it. They never undress at
