grants to Nicaragua. The President's proclamation,
and the announcement Of Senior Yrisarri the Mica
ragna Minister, that emigrans to that republic must
have passports from the Legation, have greatly
damped the ardOr Of the rank and file Of Walkers
followers, and Of many Of his supporters Colonel
Anderson, who was Savannah raising emigrants, has

field Of operations did not yield fruit as vas expec
ted Walkers agent st Mobile is writing urgent
letters TO ell parts Of the country that every effort
be made to get recruits and to have them at Mobile
by the Goth i1st that the expedition can start.
The chief persons engaged in this movement with
Walker are Hon. Pierre Soule, Of New Orleans; Hon
W. l. Yancey and Major Julius Hesse, Of Alabama;
Captain Fayssoux who commanded the schooner

that Walker has made extensive preparations and
has some chance Of getting off. His new transit
route contract has gone to Nicaragua for rati6ca-
tian but as the Assembly does not meet there till
January it hardly be presented before ten weeks
or two months By that time it is supposed that
the route viii be open and in operation under the
Stebbins contract, and Nicaragua viii hardly dare
then to close it and give the privilege TO Vandyek.
The President will take strong ground in his mes

of The Crsslrissari treaty, and combinations OF
European Powers viii be allowed TO prejudice the
interests Of the nation who must these isthmus

all the rest Of the world together.
