NICARAGUA.


san JAN DEL NoRrE, July IL, loj7.
The United States sloop. ofwsr Saratoga, Com.
Chatard. arrived on the 2ith us and anchored in
our harbor. It is hoped and expected
that this vessel will make Us bpe
visit. Several of the officers have visited
Granada, and speak in high terms Of their recep-
ton and entertainment while there. Gen. Fer
nando Chamorro, brother Of the late President Of
that pane, took every pans to make their visit to
the ruined city agreeable, aud the natives generally
taeated them with great politeness and attention.
On the nth inst. steamer reached here RON
Granada, bringing General Cshls. The General
has finally succeeded in effectiDg settlement o.
boundary between Costa Rica and Nicaragua and
everything is going on tremendously once more "
the Interior. Forts San Carlos and Castillo Vje3o,
have been giveu up TO Nicsugu and boundary
hpe has be agreed upon between the two States.
This boundary is to run from Castillo on the San
Juan River to fhe bay Of Salinas on the Pacific
coast and gives to Costa Rca all the suoh bank Of
the River San Juan, from the Castillo to this port.
Tho morning after the arrival of Gen. Cahas, he
wss called on by Capt. Cbatard, accom- snied by
MIR. Surgeon Kellogg and the ". =. Consul Tho
next day the General returned Capt. Chatards
visit, and received salute Of thirteen guns, after
which he came on shore and visited the U. s..
Consul. ~ u
The memorable Fourth" was very quietly kept
by the American residents OF the town.. The Sara
toga fired the customary salute at noon, which was
about the only national compliment % the day. A
few dirty, bareiOOted, halstaryed tilibusters, whe
had reached here day or two before, were fur.
nished with muskets and bad liquor, and drilled IL
front of Knney's deserted camp. under the appellA.
ton of the Mooney Guards" They were indeed
precious looking set of "blackgusrds." The next
day, having rot little sober, they pettoned Capt.
Chatard for succor, and be generously permitted
them to come aboard his ship, where they It'll re-
main.
Business is ON the increase, and every steamer
and bungO which comes from the interior is loaded
with hides, deerskins, Brazil wood, &c. But me-.
chandise is very scarce. and OF course high hero, >
just now. Flour is selling az $40 per barrel, lard nc
80 cents per pound, and lumber could be sold, were
there any here, at from $50 to SO, quick.
The present Government OF Nicaragua is organ
lied thus:
Cen J,REs, Chief Of Los Licensees
Gen. MATINEE, Chiet Of Los Gfassdinos
M.cssio ALy.sRz, Minister II Hacienda.
RosALIo CoRrEz Minister Of War.
Although there are two chiefs, thg are sdd TO act
N the greatest harmony, and as they are both
"LeOneses," no difficulty is apprehended between
them, and il il said both recommend the election v
a President at the earliest practicable naoment.
There il now freight enough here to boid vessel 5
Of 200 tuns and yet, strange TO say, there is net
merchant vesse in our bay and certainty OF there
soon being one here.
