WASHINGTON, June 27-The Intelligencer of
this morning Says it has been published in N.
York papers that Costa RIGA has recognised
the power Of Walker, given up war and Offer
ed to be responsible for all the expenses
growing out Of it. We are assured by per-
sons in this city who are we'll informed, that
this is sheer fabrication. On the contrary,
we understand Costa RIGA has resolved on
waging war to the last against the foreign
invaders Of Central America, and according
to the very latest advices from that country,
the concerted attack Of Guatemala, San Sal
vador and Honduras might begin, which At
tack would close in few days the career Of
Gen. Walker, whose forces it is stated are
perishing by scores, from cholera, yellow fe-
yer and other epidemic diseases.
New YoRK, June 27.-The Courier & En-
guirer's Washington correspondent, of the

sas; .s;, K possible. The general impress
sion is that an adjournment will be impract.
catbitu before S ptember 1st. The Kansas
report will be printed next after the Brooks
case.

Nv ANT OF EXPERIENCE IN "CIv,L AFFAIRS
1t amuses us very much to hear the old fogy
objection against Fremont, that he is not
qualified for President, because he has had
little or no experience in civil affairs. We
would ask these mummy politicians, how
much experience Andrew Jackson had before
he was elected? Yet the people consider, in
snite OF all hi faults, that he was one of our
best and noblest Presidents. We have no
doubt that Col. Fremont will make a better
President than even Andrew Jackson, be-
cause he has superior education, and has
another immense advantage. He has travel
ed over his while country, so that he fully un-
derstands the just rights of the South as well
as the North, the East AS well as the West.
DO you suppose that Pierce had any adequate
conception Of our ocean-like lakes, when be
crushed our harbor appropriations beneath
his veto? lie could not, because the West
the magnificent West, needs to be seen 60 be
appreciated. Even Daniel Webster, with
almost God-like grasp of intellect, remarked
to friend, that ''his visit to the West had
opened his mind to new convictions Of hii
duties as a statesman" and ever after, the
log cabin settlers Of our glorious West found
an answering champion in the massive sr.
guments OF the greatest of American orators
In truth, no man is fit to be President OF tn,
United States who has not travelled west Of
the Allegheny mountains. Without thai
travel he has no adequate conception of oal
whole country.-lWisconsin.

SrANkR ON FRENoNr.-Senator Sumner
wrote letter to the Boston ratification
meeting, from which we make the following
extract concerning Fremont:
81 have long honored Col. Fremont for
his genius in geographical enterprise, for his
manly fortitude, for his perfect integrity,
and for his easy command Of men--swaying
to his own heneAcent purposes even the say
ages of the forest, while Nature herself, in
her Winter Businesses, bowed before his
march. 1t is well at this moment, when a
great crime is instigated and sustained by
the National Government, that such a man,
with courage which will not be questioned,
and with sensitiveness to right which will
not sleep, should be summoned to grapple
with the wrong doers."
The daily Gate City. [volume] (Keokuk, Iowa) 1855-1916, 1856-07-01

The True QUESTION. Hamlin,
late leading Democrat, Mt the Fremont
ratification meeting in Boston, said truth
fully:
"Thc question is not that the South shall
be Abolitionized, but whether the whole Free
North shall be Africanized; not a question
whether the slaves of the south shall be
emancipated, but whether the Freemen OF
the North shall he made slaves.''

DOUBLING TEAMS AGAINST Col. CURTIS
Ii will be recollected that Senator Jones ap
preciated the ability Of Col. Curtis so highly
that he asserted the Colonel had headed of
and defeated the combined efforts of the
Iowa Delegation in Congress at Washington
City. Tho Locofoco leaders here seem
equally impressed with the prowess Of Col.
Curtis, and :" HINT in couples" against him.
In this county they assigned the duty of
meeting Col. Curtis in debate, to Clagett and
Moss, but the Colonel used them up SO pal
pably and efrectually, that j. G. Hall, OF
Burlington, has been put on for the balance
OF the district in place of Moss, and was to
unite ibis force with that Of Clagett, al
Fairfield in o desperate effort against Col
Curtis.
Now although we believe that Col. Curtis
Is more than match for these gentlemen
on the stump, we are too fond of fair play
to permit this game Of two pluck one. We
hope, therefore, that our friend ID. F. Miller
who was selected as candidate for Electo,
against Hall, will make his arrangements to
meet the old poll book thief and put him
through.
Fair play is jewel' which Locofocos
! do not appreciate, as is seen not only in TIN.
case, but more clearly in that of Brooks and
kett in their joint cowardy assault upor

Dick johnson, once one Of the fayorite sons
Of Kentucky, man whose bosom had been
barred to the storm Of battle, and who went
down to his honored grave, dying with the
wounds and covered with the scars he had
won in fighting the battles Of his country,
was held up last night to the jeers and SCOTS
of the multitude, aSthe possessor Of q negro
wife Times.
The fact that Dick johnson had negro
wench for wife, and recognized and educa-
ted his children BY that negro wench, was
stated in Mr.. Harlan's speech the other even
ing. That same fact was known to the
country and to the Locofoco party when he
was made one of the standard bearers Of
the Democracy OF the nation and received
the votes of that party throughout the Union.
And whether it be just subject of the
jeers and SCOTS Of the multitude or not,
it is certainly taking Offset to the charges
of amalgamasien" brought by the leaders
OF the Black Democracy against the Repub-
licans Of the present day.
The Democracy as a party have put the
seal Of their appreciation on measures of
practical amalgamation, by constituting an
amalgamationist as one OF their leaders and
standard bearers before the country, and
charges Of amalgamation come with bad
grace from men who have sanctioned the
practice by their conduct and their votes.

His daughter, the wife Of his 'sboy yin law

man; like true and brave woman that she
is, she ciings to Fremont with an earnest af-
lection, and glories in his well-carned fame.
She is proudcr of him than if he were an
emperor; and well she may be, for he is going
to be President, and that is more than 20 be
