WHAT CAPT. DAVIS SAYs.-From an official docu-
ment recently transmitted to Government by Capt.
Davis, in command of the sloopof-war St. Mary's,
we extract the following:
1t was the opinion of those who have better means
of judging than myself, that one month ago he
(Walker) could at any moment have passed the
enemy's lines, and maintained himself in the open
country. Since that time the desertons have been
numerous and frequent, not only to demoralize his
army in number, but demoralze it in character, that
towards the end Of April, the only resort left to him
was cut his way down to the coast and take refuge,
if possible, on board the schooner Granada Accord
ing to the best intelligence, such attempt would
only have been the last effort of despair, and would
have terminated fatally in less than five miles from
Rvas. The time, therefore, had arrived for dster-
mining the course to be pursued in the antC;
pated in the first letter of Instructions of January 10:
that is, az in the event of the expulsion of Walker
and his forces from Nicaragua by the allied armies
and of his departure to adjacent territory in Central
America for the purpose of hostile and aggressive
| operations
| Capt. Davis excuses his seizure of the schooner
Granada on the ground that she had lost Ser nation
atty and therefore should not have been permitted to
| pass to the high seas.

KILLED BY A GRIZZLY BEAR.- The Sacramento
Union says:
On the 7th inst. as we are informed by Mr.. Harris
young man by the name of Church was killed by a
grizzly bear in Round Valley, which is situated about
eighteen miles this side of Clear Lake, in Napa
ty. Mr. Church had been engaged in school teaching
on the Mokelumne river, and was in the valley on
visit to his relatives party had been made up to
hunt deer, and in the hunt started bear Some two
Or three shots were made, wounding the animal just
enough to render it furious and having taken refuge
in the chaparra it was of course, impossible for tie
hunters to follow. They did, however, in the excite
ment Of the chase venture. and soon scattered
Young Church went in with cousin but pushed on
Il little ahead, and they became separated. One OF
the party had climbed tree to see ii he could dis
cover the whereabouts of the bear, and while in the
tree heard the animal growing, and at the time
shaking the chaparral violently. After this, the bea
drove several of the to take trees one had tt
leave his horse for tree and finally made his escape
After the party had reached home, Church was miss
ed Several of them returned to search for him. ans
found his lfeless body at the point where the bea
had been heard breaking down the chaparral. Hi
body was horribly mangled. The right jaw and sd
of the head was completely crushed a wound on th
stomach penetrated to the hollow and lower dowl
the body was literally torn open, the bowels scattered
upon the ground, and the flesh and bones of the let
leg terribly crushed The chaparral was so thick tina
the party unable to get thesbody cut that night
They covered it with asadde.blanket and next morn
ing cut a road to the body. Mr.. Harris was not il
the hunt, but was present when the body was reco,
cred.
About year since, the same young man had mo;
of his clothes torn off by grizzly, and remarked hs
fore starting that he would try this time and be
prudent His gun was lying about ten feet from hill
, and was uncocked. 1t is Supposed that he did NJ
have time to call for help.
