The feature Of the street to-day has been the ex-
citement in regard to tho Nicaragua matter The
btrsry act of Ger Walker in annung the charters Of
the Company and seizng their property, Is univensl
ly condemned, and is considered as likely to bring
do yn upon him the power Of the United States. The
Company have received by the Northern Light thesr
d-pst,hes from their agents. and we learn from them
that the plea under which the seizure made is thss
the Company have not paid the si0, 900 per annuu
REQUIRED by the Canal Charter that they also owe the
State for transit duties, and that they have not COM
Piled with the stpulstious of the charter by building
a canal or railroad communication between the tive
ocesns In relation 70 the first charge the Company
state that false that they hold the drafts of ths
State for every such payment due. To the second
charge they state that instead of owing Nicaragua,
that State the Company for services performed
in taking out emigants, under an arrangement with
Minister French. 1t appears that Mr.. French oame
here with full authority to settle the question
in depute between the State and the Company
TO do which Commissioners had been previously
sppointed French revoked the appointment of Com
missioners, and made an arrangement with the Com
peny by which they should take out emrsnts on 40
count of the State at $50 per head. This the company
did until the amount far exceeded what the Company
ow, the State. Moreover even il the Company did
owe the State the claim, both for past and future
Transit duties, has been assigned TO secure q loan
made to the State by Mcssrs. Manning English Woe
Consul at Leon & Glenton, and the Company was
served by tie previous steamer with decree ordering
them TO make payment to that house. In regard TO
building the cansl or railroad the Company state thas
the charter allows them twelve years in which to build
the canal and if prevented by any nsurmountabo OBJ
stscles from buildu the canal they have then tho
same time in which to make railroad
and water communication between the oceans. OF this
time five years is yet unexpred. Com. Vanderbilt "
