COSTA RIGA AND THE TRANSIT RourE.-Under
date of the 9TH inst the Washington correspondent
of the New York Times writes:
The announcement that Costa Rica has taken nos.
session OF the San Juan river and SO assumes to con
troll the Nicaragua Transit route will make little
interesting work for the United States Government
the administration being distinctly pledged not to
permit Costa Rca to assert any such control over the
route in question. The complications to result from
especially desirable that we should have some repre-
sentative in Nicaragua, through whom treaty.
arrangement for the reopening Of the Transit can be
effected The difficulty, however, Of making such a
treaty is twofod: first, the absence Of reliable in
formation as to the exact state of affairs in Central
America and second, the mpossbility Of undertake
ing any practical measures for keeping the Transit
open without necessarily involving our Government
as party to the squabble in relation to the owner

The Disposition of the Stolen Money.


A San Francisco correspondent Of the New
York Herald, under date of April 9th, in
speaking Of the rumors in connection with
the stealing of the sl24,ooo from the State
Treasury, by Bates and Rowe, says:
"Some affect to believe that the money taken
from the Treasury has been used In getting up
the expedition that LETT a few months since osten-
sibly for Arizona, but really, as is stated. as
flibustering adventure to Sonora. The funds
may have been used in that manner, but it is
doubtful. The leader Of the band is Gen. Crabb,
prominent American politician, and who, with
Gov. Foote, was candidate for the United States
Senate. He had certainly influence with the
State officers, and it would appear likely that he
would use such influence to raise money to equip
and provide means for the expedition"
Here is something for the reader to cogi-
tate upon. The above surmise may be near
er the truth than we suppose. May not the
money that fitted out Crabb's expedition, to
revolutionize Sonora have been borrowed
from the State Treasury to be returned when
Crabb acquired the new territory, which
would be as soon as he entered the country,
as the Sonorians were supposed to be waiting
with open arms to receive him2 The fatal
termination Of that expedition was unexpect-
ed to every one. The revolutions and coun-
ter revolutions of Sonora, and the encourage
ment that Crabb undoubtedly received to
emigrate with all armed force, were good
reasons for deeming conquest an easy mat
ter. He expected the people to flock to his
standard, and in a short time, with but little
bloodshed Sonora would have unfurled the
banner Of an independent Republic, only,
however, with reference to her ultimate ad
mission into the American Union.
With such seemingly favorable indications
for extend ng the area Of freedom and fill
busterism, the loan from the State Treasury
may have been made for short time-a very
short time.
Some over-scrupulous persons may say
such course would be stealing after all
call it a loan or anything else We will ex-
cuse their obtuscness, and assure them
that it would only have been loaning a sister
State the wherewith to preserve her liberties
from being encroached upon by those for
eigners, the Mexcans.
But in all seriousness, we hope for the
fair fame Of the gallant but misguined men,
who were SO inhumanly butchered at Cavorea,
that there is no truth in the suspicion an
nounced in the above article. The attempt
to revolutionize State whose government
was at peace with our own was enough of
wrong, without participation in the robbery

Overland TELEGRAPH.

By the last advices from the States, we
observe that the arrangements are nearly
completed for the organization of the parties
to construct the different wagon roads across
the continent, contemplated in the appro-
priations for that purpose by the last session
of Congress
The movements Of the working parties
on the different roads possess unusual interest
to the people Of California, but the addition
of feature not contemplated by the appro-
priations, and which is an undertaking al.
together independent of the General Gov
ernment, will cause the citizens Of our State
to watch with eagerness for every item of
news connected with the work. We refer
TO the organization of Telegraph Company
in the city Of New York, with the design of
extending line to San Francisco, commence
ing at Omaha city, in Nebraska Territory.
running to the South Pass a d from thence
direct to San Francisco
At last accounts the organization of the
company was no; perfected; but it was the
intention to dispatch party with the mill
tary expedition that is to survey the north
ern road. We are not informed that it is
contemplated at present to put up the wires;
but suppose they intend fixing upon the route
the work will be located. Camels and mules
will be used for crossing the county safely
and with dispatch.
The magnitude and importance of this tele-
graphic enterprise will be realized, when
taking into consideration the fact that the
Atlantic cable will be laid down this summer;
and when the connections are made the
electric current will flash along the line from
London to San Francisco-through the depths
of old ocean, and over mountain and plain.
by the habltations of man and the solitudes
of the desert, the "lightnng talk" will speed
on Its noiseless way, carrying its messages
to the commercial circles of the two hemis-
pheres, telling the news of war and peace,
JOY and sorrow, and bidding defiance to time
and space, will bring the remotest ends of
the earth together and the people of distant
climes into constant and almost momentary
communication.
Under such revolution in human affairs.

position has not been as desperate as repre-

G. Ormsby, Of Nicaragua, has addressed
a letter to Col Napier, the British Minister
to the United States, dated May 4th, in which
it is stated that England is in close partner
ship with Costa Rica, for the destruction of
United States interests on the Isthmus. That
sheyhas' treacherously aided and abetted in
the slaughter Of American citizens and plum
der of American property, and sanctioned
the destruction Of the Nicaragua route to
California, and defeated every movement to
recover the steamers employed on the route,
with the object to obtain command of all the
routes to the Pacific coast, and it will cut off
all internal State communication.

No Verdict in the Bates Case.

The jury in the case of Henry Bates,
Treasurer Of the State Of California for
misapplcation of the public funds intrusted
to his care Gn other words for robbng like
midnight thief the Treasury he was sworn
to protect,) failed to find a verdict the other
day when the case was tried. No one is
disappointed at this rcsut-nor will be if q
Jury should be unable, time and again to
agree upon verdict of guilty. A "bum-
mer from the Sacramento levee, who should
steal coat to hide his nakedness, or break
into dwelling for the purpose of appropri-
ating food enough to stop the cravings of
hunger, would not require the services Of
more than ore jury. The criminality of the
accused would be so pa pable, than there
would be no chance for difference of opin-
ion.
Deduction: If an individual occupies a
prominent position, no matter if the most
outrageous rascality be proven upon him he
will not be punished Should an hombre
of the dock loafer genus, be even suspected
of the transfer of pint of peanuts from a
public stall to his own pocket, without the
proper interchange of the dimnutive coin
manufactured by Uncle Sam, seemingly for
that particular purpose, he gets thirty days
in a boarding house at the public expense,
and is permitted to take airngs in the streets
and highways ornamented in a peculiar
manner, to wit: A ball and chain attached
to his ancle. And a conscientious and vir-
tuously indignant population are ready to ex-
claim "seryed the rascal risht-no business
stealing peanuts"
