GEN WALKERS DESTINATION.
Esis not exactly kaowa what Gen. Walk
er'z destination is. A letter frem New York
% the Washington States says:
Soxse think it not improbable that he may
have gone to Yucatan to take part with the
revolutionisus there against The government,
Nth the ultimate purpose Of proceeding to
Nicaragua from that point. A glance at the
map will show that the peninsula of Yueatan
presents most inviting field for fllbuster
enterprise. Its best port is less than two
days distant from New Orleans, and would
be Of Immense advantage to Walker as de-
pot fer concentrating supplies Of nen and
munitions Of war, without danger Of molos
.ation from any foreign government, and
quite beyond legal reach Of that of the Uni
ted States. Recruits from California via
Tehauniepec, conld reach him there quite
az readily as from New Orleans. The Isle
Of Pines, celebrated in connection with the
Loyez expedition, is also near, and might
ne made Of service again.
If Walker has gone 70 Nicaragua. the
steamer Fashion will outstrip the United
'tates steamer Fulton without difficulty, so
that there is little danger Of his being over
taken.
The United States sloop of war Saratoga,
well known to be lying off the mouth of San
Juan, will'prove equally Inefficient in efforts
10 intercept Walker and his men, for they
will land at the mouth of the Colorado,
(which is in fact branch of the San Juan,
thirty miles distant from Grey town, and SO
pass up to and enter the latter river, long
before the Saratoga can overtake them,

he blasphemed the Savior in such a wilful,
