At the latter place is living Mr.. Priest.
U. s. Consul, DR.. Flint, MI. Green, the

their hooks, a deputation visited the Columbus

Of the Transit Company were all tumbling
down, and in the harbor were only the old
coal hulk and the remains Of Walkers schoon-
er Granada, that smashed on the rocks.
The Transit macadamized road is much in
jured from the war.reThe bridges are out of
repair, and heaps Of dirt, wond and stones
thrown up in various places for barbados.
The rolling stock ofthe Company, comprising
their fine passenger and baggage-wasons,
harnesses, etc, is nearl. al lost or much in

much injured, and several Of the rivers boats

was believed to have melted the war between
Nicaragua and Costa Rica, as he is the bitter
enemy Of the latter country on account of
late private events there IN whicd he had
part. He loudly asserted that his Instructions
were from Washington, that Costa RIGA was
not to be consjde ed as having any owner

States would take the part Of Nicaragua in
The quarrel. Mr.. Jones was very urgent to
obtain a United States flag from the Columbus,
