Of the head Of the government. We must wait
for further intelligence before forming an
opinion on this matter. It lie easy to Under
stand, however, that Gen. Walker may have
contemplated friendly understanding with
Kinney, and connived at, if he did not solicit
his visit to Granada; that the Colonel, finding
his title absolutely worthless, may, in the ma
tural irritation Of the moment Of his losses,
have uttered language which prudent ruler
of Nicaragua, in her present delicate
state, may have deemed dangerous; and
that, under the peculiar mutual rela-
tions of Kinney and Walker, the one happen
ing to have the power at the moment may have
deemed it safe and judicious to exert that
power to get rid Of his rival quietly. We do
not know that these are the facts; but there is
nothing improbable in this version of the story.
There is an idle rumor afoat that Col. Kinney
had applied to the United States government
for redress against Gen. Walker. Those who
repeat this pay poor compliment to the
Colonel's sagacity. He lie too old man not to
know that the State Of Nicaragua will not be
denied control over her own territory-at all
events by the United States; or to suppose that
this country would interfere to support title
which it has uniformly refused to acknowledge.
in favor of a person who has formally renounc-
ed her protection. In the end, It is perhaps
not wholly uDjusti6able to hope that the two
Americans who have coupled their names the
most conspicuously with the revividcation of
Central America will see the advantage they
may derive from friendly cooperation on a
basis of patriotic regard for their adopted
country that Gen. Walker will not allow feel
ing or passion to blind him to the valuable
qualities Of his unsuccessful rival; and that
Col Kinney will come to admit that though he
Cannot re Caesar, there is q lower rank which

As to the general prospects of Central Ame-
RIGA, they are steadily Frightening. 1t is per-
haps not too much to estimate that five hun
dred Americans leave the United States every
week for Central America. Such popnla-
ton must soon give tone to society and en-
terprise there. Walkers government has at
tanned such solidity that he has been enabled
to reduce the pay Of the troops to SO low a
figure that most of them will find it pay better
to work at other trades. Better than all, the
fears that Walker would 60 to war with his
neighbcrs are wholly dispelled Costa RIGA
has a)re ady made a friendly treaty with the
Walker government: the other States will
doubtless soon follow the example. To sup
pose that they would not, in the face of the
thoroughly sensible policy which Walker has
pursued and promises to pursue, would argue
degree of obstinacy and folly in them that can
not be credited.
