LANDING or WALKER ~ NICARAGUA.
NEW ORIEANS. Dec. l2-Tho steamship
Empire City, from New York ID inst, via
Havana, is ashore at the Belize, but will prob
ably be got Off tonight. She connected at
Havana with the steamship Star Of the West,
from Aspinwall with the California mails and
about two and Qunrter millions in treasure
for New York The mails by the Empire
City will not be up Tonight, but in their alb
sence we have the following abstract of her
news, which is highly important, by the Be-
lie Telegraph line.
Walker, who it will be remembered, took
his departure from Mobile bay on the 18th
ult., in the steamship Fashion, landed at
Punta Arenas. in Nicaragua, on the 18th
with one hundred and fifty men, Not the
slightest attempt was made to prevent the
landing, and in fact the purpose of the exped-
ition appeared to have not been even guessed
The o. 5. sloop-of-war Saratoga was lying
in the harbor, and the Fashion passed under
her stern at full speed with only ten men on
deck. The whole party were landed on
SCOTS wharf Walker had, it seems, sent
fifty men up the river by other entrances be-
fore making his appearance at Punta Arenas.
After landing the expedition the Fashion
took her departure At the departure of the
Star of the West, she was taking in coal
Commodore Paulding of the L. S. irigate
Wabash attempted to seize her at Aspinwall,
but on examination Of her papers found them
correct, and consequently could take no fur
Their steps against her.
Tho British and American naval forces had
sailed from Aspinwal for San Juan, and
would very probably take part in the scenes
in that vicinity, or at least prevent the land
/ ing of any more hllbustors.
1t was supposed that the difficulties be-
tween Costa Rica and Nicaragua, alluded to
in previous accounts, would be settled with
out a rcsor; to hostile measures.
The news by this arrival from California
embraces no points of special interest. The
public were much excited with regard to the
sca-worthincss of the Pacific Mail Steamers.
The following vessels had arrived at San
Francisco from the Atlantic Ports since the
/ departure of the steamer Of the 9TH of No
yembor, viz; Sierra Nevada, Aurora, Old
Colony, Goddess, Herald Of the Morning,
and Sancho Panza.
OREGON. The State election resulted in
tho success of the Constitution, and the re-
lection of slavery, and the exclusion of free
negroes.
