The people took very general interest in the

GREAT SUFFERING AMONG THE CALIFORNIA
PASSENGERS, by WAY OF NiCARAGuA-ONE
HUNDRED AND TWENTY DEATHS. The True
Californian gives the following account of the
dreadful suiferings endured by the passengers
who left New York in April last for California,by
way of Nicaragua;
The steamer Orizaba left Now York on the
9Th o. April, with some five hundred passengers
for California, by way of Nicaragua. On the
10th she arrived at San Juan, and the passengers
disembarked. BY means ofopen boats they star
ted,up the river, during soaking rain. The
exposure caused them much suffering. When
they arrived at Castillo they informed that
the transit across the country closed; and
after two days delay, during which they were
constantly exposed to the weather. they wcr
told, il they chose, they could return to New
\ ork: but only fifteen minutes were allowed them;
and as they were compelled to abandon their bag
gage in case they concluded 10 go back, three
hundred of the passengers determined to push
on.
They were taken TO Granada. whore they
were detained a month. notwithstanding that an
epidemic was prevailing there. Here the most
fearful disease commenced TO rage among them.
In four weeks seventy-nine of the the three hun
dred were buried. During this time thew suffer

ADDRESS or GEN. WALKER 10 THE ARMY.
Spdersl Since you have been in Nicaragua
you have endured prvations, and passed through
dangers, not only without murmurs, but even
with cheerfalness Veterans might be proud of
the prowess you have exhibited, and pafsiots.
fighting for homes and iresdes. have seldom
shown more self-deriai than you have done all
without having as yet received any compensation
for what You have undergone.
1t is true that the country has Just emerged
from n disastrous civil war and therefore did
not expect it to pay promptly the obligations it
contracted; but we had right to expect at least
gratitude for our services. Far from receiving
even this reward, the late Provisional Govern
ment has attempted to excite the proiudices of
the people against their benefactors. A Govern
mcnt thps bankrupt in credit, faith and honor
has no title to the confidence or respect of brave
soldiers. Duty to ourselves well as to the ma
ton, requires us 10 construct new Aaministrn-
ton, which will more faithfully execute the OBJ
lects OF It's creHton. | have, therefore, organic
ed Il new Provisional Government, until the PEG
pie can select their own rulers, whenit is to he
hoped, we viii have an Admin sration more mind
fnl OF ITS duties and more jealous of the honor of
the State.
