been taken on board at Port Kent; accompany
ing was also trunk containing old clothes,
powder, balls, dc. Some person unknown ac-
companied both barrel and trunk TO the Point;
and then disappeared-lcaving, lis saia, in

Honduras dates to Nov. 25.
The country was tranquil, and the excitement
caused by Walkers interference in the affairs
Of Nicaragua had somewhat subsidized.
There is nothing new in regard to the future
course Of Honduras in supporting the other
states against Walker.
The news Of Walkers success was not known
to the people of Honduras, and it was still be-
lieved that the famous adventurer had been dc
feated
The party Of the American gold diggers who
have been in Honduras for some time past, pros
pecting for the precious metal, had nearly oil
left the country, on account of the sickly eli
mate, which had proved on the coast very de-
bilitating to Americans.

LIGHTING RAILROAD TRAINS BY GAs!-lt is
even so. The days of the dim and dirty oil
lamps which have heretofore shed their feeble
rays-scarcey making darkness visible-upou
the night traveller upon railroads, are now num-
bered. An apparatus has been invented and
tested for lighting railroad trains with gas, which
has been pronounced perfect by all railroad men
who have witnessed its operation. BY means of
an apparatus invented for this purpose-the re-
suit of long investigation and study-common
gas to any required extent, can be carried along
with the train, either in each car, or in car by
ITSELF and so regulated as to give Its light as per-
fectly as in the house or store. The experiment
with single machine, was tried on the Dixon
Air Line Road to Fulton city, aud return two
nights this week. It worked to the entire salts
faction oil all, fully justifying all that has been
claimed for it. The invention is patented by
Aessrs. Hill / Demarest of Rochester, N. Y,
who are stopping at the New York House for
the present. They have car fitted up at the
Galena depot, where the invention is exhibited.
All who have seen it, are Of the opinion that it's
just the thing, SO long desideratum in railroad
travelling. The railroad men are completely
"taker down" with it. 1t is also applicable to
steamboats-ln fact everywhere it is desirable to
have gas lights. Cars with bright and beauti-
full gas light, will BIO new era indeed in railroad
travelling. Chicago Dem.

The Executive Dept reported that upwards of
two million dollars would be required to pay
those claims. The amendment proposing to

voted.
Several Executive communications we're re-

accompanied with the minutes of that officer,
which he says was kept hourly, as his best vim

found his predecessor had pronounced the peo-

manent peace had been restored without one
drop of blood being shed, he had gone ahead,
and what was necessary he did, paying all ex-
penses aud he trusted to Congress to reimburse
