/ NEcARAGuA.-The recent adyIces from MICA
raeua are not of character very favorable to
the ultimate success of the filIibusters. A loss
of ninety men in the late engagement with the
Costa RIGA troops is admitted; aud instead of
advancing into Costa RIGA. Walker seems to
be engaged in trying his lieutenant, Schlesln-
ger by court-martial, on charges of treason
and cowardice. The chance is that. though he
escaped the people of Costa RIGA, he will be
shot by Walker. II will be nuts to the peo-
ole of Central America to have the fillibusters
take to shooting each other. Walker is also
said to have quarreled with Parker ii. French,
who has in consequence retired to Aspnwall
An attempt is made TO offset this by story,
the origin of which does not appear. of four
teen filIbusters having put to flight two hun
dred Costa Ricans. and killed thirty of them ;
but this remarkable exploit stands greatly in
need Of confirmation.
Unless our estimate of the moral influence
of the Costa Rican victory is entirely erroneous
: il will call out large demonstration ofaid from
. the States of Honduras, San Salvador and Qua
tenala And the result must depend therefore
z upon the amount of re-enforcements received
e by Walker, the nature of his supplies aud the
s. capacity for endurance of the recruits. con
+ siderable disproportion would furnish no jus
ground Of encouragement, but limited provi
Ie sions and the want of accllmation would b.
I'd serious drawbacks. One of the great Difficult
