By virtue of said treaty, the Hon. Don Patri. cio Rivas took possession of his office, and his election was approved by the general voice of Nicaragua. His first step was to address a peaceful and friendly invitation to the Chiefs of the Central American Republics The gov- ernment of Guatemala deigned not to give an answer The Salvadores manifested disposi- ton to form friendly relations. Honduras re- cognzed the new administration, but Costa Rica declared horrible war of exterminaton against 1t. Thus situated, my government desires to maintain, by diplomatic intercourse, the good fellowship that always united Nicaragua to this great republic on every ground, and especially because the great highway between the two oceans, that is equally interesting to those States and to Nicaragua, is embraced within the border of the latter Born and educated III Nicaragua, and now for the first time visi- tor to the shores of this great republic, have right both to speak about the facts which have marked our past, and to anticipate the happiness that We may expect in the future as well for my own country for these great States.
 Your Excellency may be positively certain that during the seven months of President Rlvas' administration there has been no attempt at revoltlng against him, and that the whole people of Nicaragua form a united family pre- pared to maintain order at home, and to resist foreign aggression. That my government has obeyed the instructions of the country has been latterly manifested by calling the people to elect the supreme authority of the country, which election began on the second Sunday of April last, and if the balloting has not taken place Tn the Oriental and Southern Departments, It was because of the hostile invasion of the Costa Ricans.
 have come to your country with the official character of the representative ofthe Hon. Patr- co Rivas, the Chief Magistrate of the republic ot Nicaragua, and l hope for the interest of both countries, that shall be esteemed worthy to represent near this government that republic, and that shall find here government friend " to our peace, prosperity and permanence.

immense meeting" of the black republicans at the New York tabernacle. It is supposed 1nat t, over three thousand persons were present. rms IS not so very "immense' for such city as New York, with population of six or seven hundred thousand souls. We should say that of all the cities in the Union, New York is more interested than any other in the preserva- tion of the Union. She has been built m by commerce based on southern staples. 1t is a very ridiculous idea that such city should seel, to rip open the goose that lays for her the gold en egg and it is supremely absurd that the chief actors in black republican meeting should be/men who have made their fortunes out of>the products of slave labor

 Ch'n, Committee on Military Afairs, Senate MT.

Subsequently, however, they ordered the printing of the usual number. The committee have instructed me to report against the printing of this explora. tion of Lieutenant Warren at all; for the sim. pie reason, that the original cost of the usual number, one thousand four hundred, will be nearly as much as the cost of printing five, six or seven thousand copies. The cost of pape, and the press work is the only additional ex pense which would be incurred by printing the larger number. There is an estimate furnished by the superintendent of public printing of ont thousand four hundred copies, embracing abou sixty pages, with the map which accompanie the document and which constitutes the chic coast, will amount to $1 APO 3O Such map may be preserved, and suppose are preserved in the war department and typographical bu reau; but they will never be of use to us un less they are put into book, and the book bound.
