AN nrpoRTANT A7NoUNCENENT

The Patriot referring to the few remarks made
BY Mr.. BELL at the night session of the Know Moth
ing Convention, recently assembled in this city,
says;
He announced, what will be gratifying to our
f;ends in all sections Of the State-aye, in all sec
tons of the Union-that 1t is his intention to parl-
cinate in the contest whenever and wherever 1t
nav be deemed necessary. The democracy viii
find that he is prepared to give as well as receive
blows; and, we will add, when one OF their cham
Mons shall encounter him, 60 be he Saxon or Sara
cen Richard or Saladin," Bell viii crush his
casoue" He is fully alive to the Importance OF the
final struggle for the mastery, and the democracy
will find that he has lost none Of his power.
We can assure our opponents that the announce
ent will not be more gratifying to their party than
to ours. We have time and again, in their behalf
invited the issue, and in such manner that Mr..
BELL could not well have declined, An that we
have now to ask is that he will not reconsider his
declared intention before the time arrives.
The Patriots language warrants the belief that
Mr.. BELL is willing to have democratic champion
encounter him. That is as it should be. Give US
an omen field and fair fight We think we an
ticipate the democratic masses Of Tennessee, and
that there will be one universal shout for ANDREW
Johnson. from all portions of the State, as their
obampion in the tourney. We do not know that
Gov. JoHvsoNs engagements will admit Of his par
ticpating in the canvass but we do know that if it
is required Of him, and it is not incompatible with
other duties, he viii not hesitate to meet even the
Lion in his path, and shake him by the name
and if there is any harm resulting from it, we vii
not charge them with 1t. @
We repeat again that We trust Mr.. BELL viii not
reconsider his present intention.

NICARAGUA.


The intelligence from Nisasaguas Cor months past
has Seen 81 uneertaia and contrsaietOry as to be
scarcely worth reading For Instance, tie New
York Hsrala received hewsup 70 April lst to the
cfea that Sen Victor savallo's entire army in Nj
csragua led been defeated BY Gen. Walker and en-
tirely dispersed. That savallO was wounded and,
with less than fifty men, was returning back to Qua
temala. It was further stated that San Salvador
had almost unanimously declared in favor Of Walker
and that nine-tentbs of the inhabitants Of Central
America lean that way.
A few days afterwards came the lastrePorts we
have from Central America, through British officials
and Costa 2iean papers, saying, that Walker was
bemmed in at Riyas, subsisting on mule and. dog
flesh. and that the Allies were entrenching them
selves within four hundred yards, with the view Of
starving but the enemy ana finishing the attack.
With sneh constant contradictions and conflict q
statements, from sources seldom reliable, we have
made up our mind to believe nothing one way or the
other, until we know that the struggle has taken7a
decisive turn by the entire expulsion Of the Fev0lu-
tiotists or their complete success and aseendeney
over the native Allies "s
Whatever that result may be It viii not lessen our
confidence in the ultimate ascendency Of American
mind and energy over this now distracted and be-
nighted country Our march is onward and no
barrier can stop its progress. In the fullness Of
time the harvest ripens and the reaper puts in his
sickle. In the funess Of time the slavishand dis
traeted condition of that population, and the free
restless and progressive spirit Of ours viii have
reached point, that the one must gradually ad-
vance and the other disappear. We believed that
that time had come when Walker first established
himself in Nicaragua Subsequent adverse circum-
stances, connected with English influences and the
selfish interests Of certain American capitalists,
may result in defeat of the present enterprise
We trust not. Be that as it may, the barriers have
been thrown down and the door of revolution open
ed in Central America; and hundred such reyerses
could not efFsctually close it The present defeat
Of Walker and his men, would but serve as did the
fall of the Almo in theTexan revolution to produce
momentary pause to gather new strength and resOu-
ton for another and another struggle There is a
law of nature, of necessity and of circumstances,
controlling in these things greater than the law of
nations We look hopefully to its results.

HON. CHARLES READY.

We feel concerned for this gentleman. When he
was Independent or polite enough to vote with the
South upon the Kansas-Nebraskab bill, we compliment
ted him fer his course. We considered it under the
circumstances, and subsequent events have shown
our estimate to be just one, act Of heroism in
political point of view. To be sure Mr.. READY
afterwards, when FILLMORE was nominated, wrote
long, muddy, episte to his constituents, in which
he undertook to prove that he was right in voting
for the bill, and other Tennesseans were equally
right in voting against it that the Democrats
at the bottom Of all the mischief which afflicted the
country, and that althoughit would be extremely
inconsistent in him to support party which OppO-
sed these measure yet he could not consistently
with his antecedents and personal preference do
anything but support the Knew Nothing nominee
And so he did. Yet inasmuch as this letter was
designed to effect nothing in particular, and was
therefore entirely successful in its purpose we still
cherished kindly feelings for its author, and kept
up our watchful guardianship over his interests.
We have the vanity to believe that Mr.. READY
duly appreciated our kindness and properly res
pected the wisdom Of our counsels. And we we're
gratied at the Difference with which he listened to
our advice not to submit to the proposed meeting of
his opponents, yclept convention, but in reality
nothing more nor less than a mock trial before
packed jury, when after going through certain
FERNS the warrant for his execution would be pro-
duced, ready signed and he led forth and beheaded
without benefit of clergy Acting upon our advice,
he took bold stand in defence Of his rights, and,
unmoved by threats or maledictions maintained it.
He carried his point; the enemy capitulated. And
to insure READT's reelection, the friends of HAT
TON, in consideration of the formers inability to
hold crowd for fifteen minutes to listen at his
speeches, magnanimously proposed that HATToE
should canvass his district for him. If it should be
necessary to the triumph Of the party. Under this
arrangement, Mr. READY felt secure Of a triumph
ant reelection. But, alas!
sTbe best laid schemes of mice and men,
Gang aft aglee."
The State Convention has nominated Mr.. HATTON
as the Wing aud Know Nothing candidate for Gov
ernor, and what is to become of Col. READY Who
is to speak for him-who shall &" hold the crowds 4"
for our grotsge noW2 If he were to have no OppO-
sition it would make no difference But it is gen.
orally believed that he will not alone. What,
then. we ask again is to become of him? For our
selves we candidly confess that we see nothing but
defeat as the probable result Of this desertion BY
his main-stay.
We do not like to think hardly of our opponents
but we will say this looks like intrigue" more
than the result Of accident. They owed Col. READY
grudge and they have paid it. He is deserted,
BETRAYED in the house Of his friends; bound hand
and foot; and in this helpless condition given over to
his enemies. Alas! alas poor Ysrick!
