Capt. T. J. MAoKEY, charged with violating
the neutrality laws of the United States, was
arrested in Charlesown, S. O., on the ID inst.
and examined before r. @. GHouRIsT, ESQ,
United States Commissioner. The evidence
proved that Nackey bad been engaged in en-
listing a company of emigrants with a view
to Join Gen Walker 10 Nicaragua. Theaccus-
cd was committed TO jail for trial in January
next. 1t would seem, from this case, that the
President is actively engaged In breaking up
Nicaragua expeditions, bringing al the civil au-
thority of the government to bear upon them.

eminent trains blocked up in the snow-the
cattle dying, and the officers and men gloomy
and respondent. The Mormons were making
the most active preparations to repel the

received recruits enough to overpower him,
and then after burning the city, he would
lead his people into the mountaiHs.-St. Louis
