JAMES BUCHANAN
By the President.
LEWIS CAss, Secretary of State.

We have no commentary to mako upon this doc
ument, except to direct attention to the very curl
Gus assumption Of the President that the object
Of the supposed expedition is the overthrow of 1.-THE
present Government Of Nicaragua" by force"
The President. we are disposed to think. exceeds
the bounds Of even diplomatic courtesy. in speak
ing Of the ''prcsent Government of Nicaragua.
Certainly, if there has been any Government
of any sort in Nicaragua since 1854 it has been
of 30 feeble and ridiculous character as scarcely
to be entitled TO recognition even in the elaborate
and formal cartels of diplomatic correspondence.
From the moment that Walker irst landed in
Central America, at the invitation Of the liberal
party, up to the present time, there has been
nothing bnt confusion and anarchy among the
people While there are half dozen different
contestants for the Presidency IF Nicaragua, each
one denying the claims ofthe Others and dsplac-
ing one another almost rapidly as the moon
changes her phases. We are disposed to regard
the "present Government Of Nicaragua" very
much as myth and an unsuhstsntalty. The
truth is, there as regular Government" in Nj
caragua, and the claims of Walker to the supreme
authority are Fcrhsps more valid than those of
any one else
Whether 80 Or not, TINS Is what Walker himself
asserts. He protests that he does not 20 to take
another's, but only to resume his own lie AYERS
that he does not 60 as invader but for tho pur-
pose OF repelling those who have already invaded.
He claims to be the legitimate President Of Nicar-
aqua, and that he has been forcibly deprived of
his authority by usurpation-not by usurpstion of
Nicsraguans, but by combination Of Costa Ri
cans with few Nicaraguan enemies of popular
rights. For this reason, Walker has always de-
clared that his enterprise was legal one, and
that. Is he has renowned his allegiance to this
Government, we have no right to intercept him
In the prosecution Of what be believes to be justly
his own.
Undoubtedly, it is proper for the President to
prevent. fhe can, hostile invasion of neigh.

Suicide in Columbus Indians

We have already had. by telegraph, q brief &C.
count of tragic affair that occurred Mt Columbus.
Indiana, last week. The Democrat published n,
that place on Friday, furnishes the following par.
ticulsrs:
On Wednesday last. at the court room, soon nf.
ter the meeting of court in the afternoon, one of
the most terrible tragedies was enacted That ever
transpired in court Of justice, or indeed any,
where else.
1t appears that judgment had some time since
been obtained William Mewherter, an old and well
known citizen of this county. and that an cxecu-
ton had been issued upon il against his property.
but the Sheriff not being able to find anything to
satisfy the execution, had returned It unsatisfcd

property which ought to be applied TO the pay

murder was committed in that city on Saturday
evening, in II house Of i'll fame. Three young men
visited the house early in the evening. and in
very short time after entering murdered one of the
inmates in n most hcndsh manner The name of
the murderer is Charles Cook, son of wealthy
and highly respected citizen, and like young Guul-
dy, hid plenty of money ut his command, and
was idle aud hence this issue. The Cincinnati

Young Cook is about twenty-five years of age
