Resignation administers The FiisJuSier Ar
resis-Cpk. Kinney.
1t is stated TINT passengers by the Star of
the West" at New York speak in favor of the
administration of affairs by General Walker, in
no measured terms, The design of Walker is
said to be the formation Of republic Of Central
Amer lean States, of which he means to be the
ruler, profcrring an Independent government to
the honor OF an outside membership in the feder-
al union 1t is also said that several who have
joined the standard Of Walker for purpose of
plumber have been snot by him, and that he has
proclaimed his intention to keep his skirts clear
of such patriots" for the future.
The latest report from Granada states that
Maxine Jerex, Benura Saliva, and Fermin Fer
rer hnvo rendered their designations Minister'S,
aud their counsel for proceeding with hostile
measures against Honduras and the other neigh
boring States. not having been approved of by
the Executive, their resignation had been accept
ed.
One OF Walkers leutenants, a very fine Off
Ger. and great favorite, was accidentally shot IA
week or two ago. There is not much cholera
in Grenada. Only seven of Walkers men aud
officers have died in the last six weeks.
Col. Fry. who went out with n scouting party
of 30 men, to march TO point about los miles
north of Granada has been surrounded. The
report is that he has cutshs way through, ana
was rotreating towards Granada, with n loss of
eleven men.

addition to his forces of l06 men, besides il Off.
GERS, 100 in all.
Tho news Of the non reception of Col. French
the minister TO the Cuiied States, by our govern
meni, has been the subject of much comment in
Granada. The Nicaraguense, speaking of tho
arrest of the tillibusiers at New York, says:
AS well might Mr.. District Attorney McKe,n
stop every train of railroad ears that leaves New
FORK of II morning, AS stop steamer bound for
| Nicaragua, which is not fitted out by the govern
ment of the United States, without view to the in
fraction of the Bulwer treaty. If he has power
| to imprison passengers on shipboard who are 90
| ing TO foreign countries no matter for what pur-
| pose, then sury he may imprson all the guests
at the ST. Nicholas Hotel who propos going to
England. The whole affair. we declare in con
clusion, as we did in the opening of this article.
| is supremacy ridiculous; will be so regarded by
! the people of the United States and we very much
mistake John Bull if he does not laugh heartily at

| Walker succeeds but Kinney fingers in San
! Juan del Norte, or Greytown. and calculates his
| growls drought its organ. in the Central Ameri-
can. He ridicules the doipgs of District Attor-
ney Mckeon. at New York, and reloices at the
arrest of the steamer Northern Light, belonging
| to the Transit Company.
Several parties have lately arrived at Grey
town from Texas, friends and acquaintance of
Colonel Kinney. They are pleased with the gen
eral appearance of the country, and upon their
report. considerable body of emigrants it is
expected, will leave Texas, with view of set
ting Gin the country. A party left Greytown
lately for Indian river, with an abundant supply
of provisions, with view to form settlement
