LATE 4 IMPORTANT FROM NICARAGUA
RETREAT Of COL. LocXRIDaE from CASTILLO
San Juan River in the hands Of the Costa Ricans'
FEARFUL STEAMBOAT EXPLOSION Oy-SIXTY LIVES LOST

w,sHIsGros, Wednesday, April 10, 1857.
The steamship Isabel arrived at Charleston on Sun
day night bringing Havana and Key West dates to
the 10th inst.
The steamship Tennessee, from Aspinwall via San
Juan had arrived at Key West, bringing very i'm
pOrtant news from Nicaragua.
Col. Lockrdge, who at last accounts was threaten
ing TO attack Castillo had abandoned the intention and
rereated from his position, leaving the whole of the
san Juan River in complete possession of the Costa
Ricans.
A dreadful explosion had occurred on board the old
transit steamer j. n. Scott and sixty lives dlbusers
are reported to have been lost.
The Tennessee had number of Lockridge's conf
mand on board, including about fifty sick and
wounded.
The Tennessee would sail from Key West on the
evening of the 10th for NewYork, where she may be
expected to-day or tomorrow
Among the arrivals at Havana were, on the Sth, the
briggs Arago from Boston, Yapkee Blade from Port
land, and schooner Il. Curtis from Boston, 9th, barks

Mr. Haniss salutatory Editor and Proprietor Of

he seals are not even broken.
The I'A,On will appear tomorrow under the aus
icos of its new editor. Col Carter of Pennsylvania
has been retained assistant editor. The reports
that Edmund Burke and Others were engaged are alto

To the last degree, the great body of the " Good
Liquor apostles who had been complaining of the

against the License system! They had meant to

men, so as to defeat any restriction whatever of tho
Liquor Traffic; but in this they were disappointed.
The bill as it has passed is not such a one as We
desired; hut if il satisfies the friends of License
We shall not complain. We would have it exactly
adapted to their views, and then We ask them to

The act Of our State Legislature incorporating
the American Emgrant and Homestead Company
will be found on another page The policy which
il inaugurates, 30 far as our State Is concerned,
has already been tested in the experience Of the
Emgrant Aid Society Of Massachusetts. Let us
further illustrate it.
We will suppose that all Illinois north Of the
National Road, with few local exceptions, was
unocccupied and open to settlement on the
first day of January, 1880, aud that a Com
pany with adequate capital had bought the
whole area at Government price and paid
the cash for it, having a further capital of
Five Millions for road-mahing and other i'm
proyenents. We will further suppose that the
Company had proceeded next TO lay out so many
ard such railroads through their tract as they judged
desirable, and to survey and lay of the locations of
the county sites, villages and future cities
the latter at the points of intersection of the
embryo Railroads with the Illinois, Mississippi,
Wabash, Lake Michigan, &c. Now let Us sup
pose this Company to be wise enough 10
advertise to all the world that they were ready
. eirc auay half their entire tract in alternate
lOlS OF 10 iHi VpultT 10
have the first choice Of city or village lot,
or an eighty acre location of farming land,
as lie should prefer. Let us suppose
he Company to organize lines of cheap trsnspor.
alton by railroad steamboat or otherwise, to their
tract, and erect mills hotels, &c, at the points
where they should be most needed, renting the
same at first if necessary, but selling them out to
men who would buy them so fast rs possible Let US
suppose the Company thus, BY offering every one
home stead for nothing, were 10 dispose within five
years of three-fourths of that half of It's lands
which il proposed to give away, leaving on is
hands for sale in future years each alternate lot in

side Of the cities and villages. who can doubt that
these would rapidly sell for five times the whole
outlay involved in the enterprise
And, while the Company would be rcaping gen.
erous harvest for Itself it would benefit every wor

merely in giving the pioneer settlers choice lands

The advanced price Of beef cattle at Bulls Head
last week was maintained yesterday; few, if any
bullOcks suitable for frst-class butchers stalls
were sold at prices below an equivalent of twelve
cents pound for the meat in the quarters: and We
see 10 good reason to fatter beefeaters that
they have any prospect of seeing this kind of food
cheaper again very soon. Is it not therefore,
time for all who eat meat to begin to inquire what
they are to use as substitute asit is quite certain
that very large number of people in this city can
not afford that sort of food at the prices that have
prevailed for the past year. and will prevail for the
year to come. Who will teach the people how to
believe that they can live and have strength to
labor without eating much expensive meat.
New-York daily tribune., 1857-04-16

cfsctor He who seeks land at government price, I'M
der our prevalent system. must 90 out Of the pale
of civilization out Of the sight or hearing Of neigh
bors to find IT, The last settlement will be sepa
rated by a belt five TO fifty miles wide of specu-
latOrs' land from that which can be- bought at ten
shings per acre. But on the plan We have sug
gested, there must surely be land offered for no.
thing until the last eighty acres of the alternate
tracts be settled and il is probable that the last
eighty. BY reason Of the density Of population,
would be as attractive and valuable as the first.
We do not imply that the newly organized Com.
pany propose to give away any portion of the lands
they may purchase, for on that head we have no
information. We aim only to show the immense
superiority Of organized over chaotic and struggling
emigration. No Emgrant Company can afford
to hold the great body Of its lands for high prices
il must sell promptly in order 10 stimulate imm-
grafton and settlement and to escape ruin by taxes
and assessments. When it shall have sold half its
land judicously to the right class of settlers, the
balance will be worth far more than the whole
ever was.
We note much talk in certain Journals as to Vir
gina's permitting or forbidding this Company TO
buy of her waste and forest-coyered lands. If she
does not, there are enough who will. Virginia is
State proffering signal advantages and attractions
to large industrial colonies; but this weud have
been pretty good world if in making it up Viz
gnia had been wholly omitted There are States
enough that will gladly welcome peaceful, indus
trious, intelligent immigrants, even though they
bring steam sawmills moving yachnes and power
printing presses with them. The Company
has no idea Of planning crusade against
aught but bears, wolves and catamounts.
Their aim is to buy cheap lands, increase their
value and sell them at enhanced prices to whomso-
ever will buy them-Northern or Southern slave
driver or free labOrer. If slave labor cannot afford
to pay so much for them, or cannot 80 rapidly en-
hance their value az free labor, that is fault of
the Homestead Company. And if the Virginia
oligarchy forbid the sale Of the unoccupied or ex-
hausted lands Of that State to those who will pay
for and improve them, so much the worse for her
oyertaxed landhOlders. and much the better for
those Of some other section. The day in which
good money will not buy unoccupied land, and IN
which quiet. moral intelligent settlers will not be
allowed TO purchase and improve it, has not yet
arrived.

great flourish Of trmnpets by several Of our cotcm-

the expedition would seem TO be abandoned. The
