There has no death occurred ia lone that caused
so general feeling Of sorrow as that OF little
Lorenzo. Beloved by all who knew him for his
gentleness and winning demeanor; intelligent far
beyond his age il was hoped that he was destined
as an ornament to society during long and honor
ed life. But, eve cannot hold mortalitys strong
hand" The funeral services were peculiarly sol

felt for his loss. While we deeply sympathze with
the parents, let us remember, that the grave is the

CosrA RIGA AND NIcARAcuA.-It appears
by latest accounts from Central America,
that the dispute between Costa Rica and Nj
caragua as to the control Of the Transit route
has taken the shape of open hostities, the
Costa Ricans having called on the Nicaraguan
commander of the fort of San Carlos to sur
render that post, and being refused, has en-
ployed the steamer San Carlos to blockade
it, to which the Nicaraguan authorities had
replied by manifesto accepting the war
made by Costa Rica, and threatening to raise
the necessary force to maintain the right Of
Nicaragua, both to the Transit route and to
the district Guanacosta. The Costa Ricans
justify their movement towards taking sole
possession of the route, by complaining of the
recent negotiations undertaken at Washing

THE MURDERS OF GRIswoID.-It is supposed
that the murderers of the late Griswold, in
Jackson, have been arrested at Marysvile
The Inquirer Of Dec. 3lst says:
Last evening, one Of our most respected
citizens having learned that "a couple of
Cinnamon answering the description of the
Chuamen who were engaged in the murder
of Griswold, at jackson, Amador county,
in November last, where prowling about
the secret places Of our city, laid his plan,
and succeeded with the aid of other China
men, in making their arrest. They are now
safely locked up in the city calaboose, where
they will be detained until the authorities
of Amadol can be heard from. One of these
men under arrest is about FIVE feet six inches
high, square built and heavy set, weighs
about 1865 pounds, has full face, and hair
cut short His upper teeth project slightly
over his under teeth. On being questioned,
the prisoner says that he is well known at
Jackson--that be resided there eight months,
and left there two months ago; that he
formerly kept a sore there, aud has recently
been engaged in the same business at Long
Bar, in this county; that he came to this
plac on Monday last to buy goods, etc.
The other Chinaman is thin, spare man,
who says hei resides at San Francisco.
Both of these Cinnamon were well armed
with revolvers, knives, and all the other
concomitants necessary TO defend themselvs.
They had secreted upon their persons some
gold dust. From all the circumstances sur
rounding these men, we are inclined to the
opinion that they are the identical men. whom
the autorities of Amador have so long been
searching after
Since the above was in type, we have been
permitted to use the following telegraph dis
patches:
Marysville, Dec. 81, 1857.
JUDGE GoRDoa: The Cinnamon are caught,
and recognized by Kilham and myself.
