whom were ladies. All the arrangements were
well carried out; the stand. which was sixty feet
long. Was handsomely decorated with evcrgrccns
and flowers woven by delicate hands into fcstoons'
and wreaths. We hope great results in the Old

THE WAR WITH COSTA RIGA.

From Our Own Correspondent ~-,
SAN JUAN DEL NORTE, June IL, leJ6.-
am still here, hnt sipse. ~ leave by the nr't
steamer for Virgin Bay and San Juan del Sdr.
There bas been great dearth Of news at this place
for ,ome little time past; rather so little reln-
bic news that one has scarcely known what to be-
lieve.
The United States steamer Susquehanns, Capt.
S,nds, bearing the broad pendant Of Commodore
Puuldipg, arrived here on the 7th inst, and left
again on the 10th fer Key West. Officers and
crew all well. 1t is understood that the Commo'
dore visited this port to make inquiries regarding
the charges set forth in the protest Of Capt In
klepaugh of the steamer Orizaba; and that after
asccrtainil all the facts in the case, the Commo'
dore and Cart Tarleton. of Fl. B. NJ. frigste Fury
dice, parted with perfect good understanding
and with sentiments Of mutual respect
On the 18th tho steamship Granada touched
here on her trip from New. Orleans to Aspinwall,
and is expected to call again on her return voy-
age. The schooner NJ. ID. Chase, Capt. Thurst0n,
arrived from New.York the same day, loaded wlIn
merchandise for the interior. The schooner Minna
Schifer, Capt. Wilson, sailed for New-Orleans on
the morning fthe 18th inst intending to touch at
Rustan for a cargo. Thus you see we have had Q
little Stir after so long time OF inactivity.
The first mail that we have had from Costa Rica
for the space of one month reached here on tne
18th Sunday, via Salt Greek. In The Album
Stmanal of the 9th Of May the latest date), pub
lished at San jose, it 10 stated that communities.
tions had been received from the Ministers OF
Guatemala and San Salvador, announcing that On
the Sd of May the vanguard Of the troops from
the former State, comprising 900 or !, 900 men un-
der General Peredes, marched for San Salvador
with the object of uniting the forces of these two
States previous to invading Nicaragua. Tho
united force was to number 5000, to be COM
manded BY General Guzman of San Salvador, who
wns to act in concert with President Mora OF Cos.
ia Rics, aud they still threatened to destroy
Walker and all fillibu.ters. The same paper like
wise states that letter had been received from
Panama stating that three armed vessels were on
their way to PUnta Arenas TO augment the forces
of Costa Kca at whatever point should be desig::
rated. Private letters received here give sad
account of the rsvages of the cholera in Costa
Ries. The army bad been decimated by this fear.
iul epidemic, the haciendas thinned Of workmsn,
and er, at coDsternstion rcigned among the nhabi.
taDts generally. Still it is asserted that another
demonstration " III be made against Nicaragua, and
that the combined forces of Costa Rica, Guatema-
Ia, sId San Salvador should about this date be in
vadDg the frontiers Of that unhappy State. .....
