e Central Observation-Disclosures Prospects.
The news from Central America, brought by the
steamship Granada via Havana, is neither full ner is
itreable in opinion SO far as the prospects of
the liberators Of Nicaragua are concerned. The ac
counts respecting the deplorable riots at Panama
are doubtless correct; but the rumors, meagre and
unsatisfactory though they are, regarding Gen Walk
er, his army and the chances Of war and fortune
which surround him and them, come from interested
and preudiced sources and must be taken cum svano
sails.
The Aspinwall Courier of the 10th instant, has ac
counts of the rout Of the forces under the command Of
the wretched Schlessinger, at Santa Rosa which go
to confirm those already published in this city, re-
ceived by the Charles Morgan. We give the specula-
tons of the Courier concerning this inauspicious
event, although we do not concur in them but be-
cause the article is written in an evident spirit Of
fairness notwithstanding the writer is, undoubtedly,
Opposed to the projects of Gen. Walker and his com
patriots ..-

The Aspinwall Courier starts out with an apparent
misstatement 1t knows nothing of the previous
OR present "plans' of Gen. Walker He is man who
keeps his own counse-says but little, thinks great
DEAL and acts all the time. The craven treason of
Schlessinger, we are fully persuaded has not dsar-
ranged any OF ms man plans. 1t may have DANA
ged some of the preiminaries of the campaign, but
that is ALL The Courier is equally mistaken as to the
number ofavaable men Gen. Walker can rally around
his standard Had it said twenty-four, instead of
eight hundred, it would have been much nearer the
MARYLAND if it thinks there is going to be cessation
Of recruits and supplies on account of the Transit
Company, we imagine it will find itself wofully at
fault. Great movements are seldom stopped by such
means, in this age of progress and advancement.
We have no idea the reported conduct of the agent
of the inland transit route will render either the rlv-
ers or lakes unnavigabe. And, if it don't, just as
good and competent a man as he can be found. What
has been done once can be done again. "There no
such word as fail in the vocabulary of AngloSaxon
regenerators on this continent.
For our part we entertain doubt that the gallant
Walker will eventually triumph fnot interered with
from without Our faith as strong as it was at the
first, and fears precisely the same. What were
those fears based upon2 Why, that England would
Interfere, directly or indirectly and crush out" as
noble an enterprise as was ever undertaken on this
continent and that the administration at Washington
would sit idly by and the nefarious scheme OF OPP
preston eonsummated. An idea Of what England
has been doing is given in the above extract from the
| Aspinwall Courier.
