of his Central American travels, in the May
number of Blackwood, in the course OF
which he thus describes the ''grey-eyed
man" Of Nicaragua :-'In stature, Gen.
Walker is but little over five feet four. His
features are described as coarse and impas-
sible; his square chin and long jaw denote
character, buthis lips are full, and his mouth
is not well formed his eyes are universally
spoken of as the most striking feature in his
face-of a singularly light grey, they are so
large and fixed, that in daguerreotype the
eyelid is scarcely visible -

Oats-Sales Of Maryland at 56a62 cents.
From the American of Saturday last
ToBAcco.-The receipts of Maryland Tobacco
this week are not so large for some weeks past,
and the probability is that the bulk of the crop
has been brought to market much earlier than
usual, the planters wisely availlng themselves of
the high prices and active demand During this
week the inquiry is rather less active, and ship
pers seem indisposed to pay former rates; conse-
quently the sales have been made in most instan-
ces at prices more favorable to the buyers. We
DO not, however, alter our quotations. which gen.
orally embrace the range of the market With
the falling off in the demand prices must recede
and stocks begin to accumulate in the hands of
the commission agents. We quote as last week,
viz: Maryland Brown Leaf as in quality, S9a
$40; Maryland crop, inferior short seconds, 81 so
$3.50; brown leafy, Sl0aSl1; and extra at Slla
SIS. The receipts Of Bay Tobacco from the up
per counties of Maryland are not so large this
week. but the demand is still very active, and
prices are fully maintained. The inspections of
the week are ,95 hhds. Maryland, 269 hhds Ohio,

The AMERICAN PARTY ADVISED TO DIS

The AMERICAN PARTY ADVISED TO DIS
BAND.-The Richmond Whsg, of June 4th,
advises the American party to disband, as
it can never, the Wing says, effect anything
as national party. That paper seems to
think the sooner it resolves itself out of ex-
istence the better, as it is powerless to do
any good, and the result of the last Presi-
Dental election proved the fact. It advises
a return, and speedy one, to the great
constitutional, Union-loving, conservative
and patriotic Wing party, around whose an
cient affairs the fires of patriotism still burn.
