to revive the old Wing party, under the
name of Union Party The Sacramento
Jrion is evidently pleased, (as it is, of course,
st everything anti-Democratic,) but wants
hs old name of Wing retained It says:
When that glorious old party is reorgan-

ihs name of Wing" We are inclined to
think the Union win have to content itself
With Republicansm; there will probably be
70 other organized opposition to Democracy

from this day forward We may look upon
Nicaragua as province Of the Uuited States.
By the new treaty a Protectorate is estab-
i'bed: aud with our flag once waving there,
asit will when troups are sent to defend and
protect the transit route,) the destiny of
Nicaragua will be determined, if not fulfilled.
