The Chances for Walker.

We have further news from Nicaragua
this morning. ltgoes just far enough TO
stimulate the hopes OF Walkers friends
without changing the opinions Of those who
consider his condition desperate. Col.
Lockridge is making desperate efforts 10
reopen his line of reinforcements, and SO
far as he has gone, has been successful
But his progress is small, and the Difficult
ties Of the attempt are but just commencing.
Very little warrant can be found in this
news for any decisive or positive opinion
as 10 Walkers eventual success. Ii Lock-
ridge should force his way 10 the Lake, and
then succeed in procuring boats, Walker
may be relieved; ana having maintained
himself against the superior numbers Of the
allies through January and February, with
out aid or the immediate prospect of any,
there is no reason why he should not hold
out to eventual triumph. The climate is al
ways against HIM. But that, perhaps, is
more than compensated by the character of
the enemy he contends with, who are Who'll
ly destitute Of warlike spirit, and whose
rapid escapades from the battle field are
owing to the i'll judged exaggerations of
Walkers ferocity, by which the Central a.

the hatred Of the people,
The stories have acted rather upon their
fears than their jealousy and aversion
Cowardice disarins them. Nothing could
be more injudicious than TO have told this
emasculated populace, among whom old ira
dilions live with astonishing tenacity, that
the American chief was q fibuster and blc.
canero. The horrors and atrocities perpe.
trated upon their fathers by those daring
freebooters were SO recalled; while to u,
they recall, how, in the better days of Mic
nragua, Davis, buccaneering captain from
Jamaica, with only ninety men, penetrated
10 the capital, ransacked and plundered it
nrd left with prodigious booty; and how
Morgan, with an army less numerous thar
Walkers, captured the fortified and wei
defended town of Porto Bello, and after
wards, following very nearly the track O
the Panama Railroad, took, sacked and de
stroyed the old city of Panama, the seat c
the South Sea trade, gorged with immens
wealth, and fortified and occupied by pow
erful army. Such recollectiOns provoke III
most contemptuous estimates Of Spanish
American vaior; AMI almost assure the fins
success Of Walker. But then, achievin
his work in haste, and departing, the fli5us
tier Of other times had not pestiferous eli
mate added TO The less formidable danger
