and IT is this simple circumstance which it has
been attempted to transform into a political
question of the highest importance We can
scarcely help smiling upon reading in the Eng
iish journals an expression of childish doubts
on this subject. The editors already fancy they
perceive the Russian feet leaving Cronstadt for
the Mediterranean port, thence to menace a
descent upon England. They have probably
forgotten the route which the vessels would be
Obliged to take, from the Gulf of Finland to the
Mediterranean Sea. The periodical press of
England, which, in the absence of other polit
cal items, has doubtless deemed this a good op
portunity for startling fabrication, would have
acted more honestly in avowing that it is dis
tasteful to them to ,oitness the decolopmem of
the commerce and the increase in the maritime
poaoe' Of other nations. AS for the obstreperous
clamors on this subject of several Austrian
Journals, it sufices to remark in order that thew
shall be appreciated at their exact value, that

Lioyds trade to the ports of the Mediterranean"

have made an affidavit, and Gen. Walker might
have been arrested, when he was, a few days
ago, at the Federal capital. Instead of this,
however, we ascertain that the Grand Jury at
New Orleaus have inquired into the character
of the proposed emigration to Nicaragua, and,
after searching examination of witnesses,
have not deemed further action necessary.
There appear to be some who, with unreason-
able pertinacity, insist on declaring the illegal
ity of acts tending to the extension and increase
of Slavery. The prejudiees of an Anticipated
error may be overlooked, when not constantly
thrust before us by those holding public posi-
tons. When, however, judges assume the tone
of our bitter enemies-when they Join in the
cant which denounces the extension Slavery as
opposed to the religion and civilization of the
age" it would be criminal in us to be silent.
We should deserve condemnation, if we failed
to place in proper light before the public such
acts of treason to the South and her Institutions
1t is unwise to reserve all our wrath for the
Northern Abolitionists who come in our midst
for the purpose of openly making war ON Sla-
very, while there may be those among us enjoy
ing exalted position whose insidious efforts to
control our policy may be far more dangerous
than the attempts of blatant fanaticism
If any indulgence is to be granted for doubt
full violations Of law, let it be for those who are
willing to risk all for the defence of US and our
institutions. Let Us not incline to presumptions
in favor of those-oficials or others-who are
striving to limit our expansion and confne US
within our present boundaries. Against all
these last, whatever be their character or posi-
ton, we are bound to wage an incorporating
war. They, and their defenders, are the com
mon enemies of the South, and there is no safety
for us but in their defeat. al

put our hands into the Federal Treasury, and

SIR, If the President wants peace, and ifthose
with whom he labors want peace, why does he
not begin himself; and why does he, in this
manner, at the very outset of this session OF
Congress, throw this question before us, and
challenge US either to speak out or to be silent
and submit to the imputations which he would
make, and the Measurements of fact with which.
IN my humble judgment, the message abounds
upon this matter? If he wants peace, why does
he do that, and then put us in the alternative
OF either by silence admitting that they are true
or else protesting that they are not true, and
thereby subjecting ourselves to the charge OF
being agitators?

The National Era is about to enter upon il.
Thirteenth volume.
Twelve years ago, when the Discussion o.
the Question Of Slavery was practically pro
hiblted in this District, the Era was commenced
tor the purpose OF asserting and defending the
Rights OF Discussion, and of giving fair ex-
preston to Anti Slavery Sentiments. In the
House of Representatives John Quincy Adams
and Joshua r. Giddings alone gave il moral
support; in the Senate, it found not a single
well wisher; while outside Of Congress it stood
here, solitary and unsustained, under ban and
menace. A conhictfo followed, in which an excited
Populace undertook to suppress it by violence,
but II resisted the storm, maintained its posi-
ton, and from that hour the Liberty of the
Press was established in the District of Co
lumbia.
Twelve years have passed, and to- day, the
Era finds twenty among the most distinguished
members OF the Senate, elected to carry out the
Principles 1t was instituted to advocate, and
the House almost controlled by Representatives
with whom il can consistently and heartily ACT
as a co-worker.
While the cause it has advocated has ad-
vanced SO rapidly, am constrained to say that
the Era, since the advent OF the Republican
Party, has suffered somewhat in its circulation.
influential newspapers, once in opposition,
but now united in the same movement, and an
extensive Local Press, upholding kindred sen
uments, naturally engross large portion Of
Republican patronage.
This was to be expected, but still think
there are good reasons why the Era should
continue to be sustained. Ii was the first Press
to raise the standard of Freedom in the CAPITAL
of the Republic. For twelve years it has been

IMPORTANT FROM NICARAGUA.

The President of the United States is lucky
man. In his annual message, delivered to Con.
gress week ago, he calls upon that body to
ontborize him, at his discretion, to interpose
Nth the army and navy for the protection of
,ba transit routes across the Isthmus of Tehu-
sntepec, Nicaragua, and Panama. On Satur.
dar last, the Washington, one of the Nicaragua
,ransit steamers, which sailed from New York
On the eth November, for San Juan del Norte,
..,,rned after an unsuccessful effort to land her
,ossengers. She arrived at that place on the
18Th but was informed that her passengers were
.r.n4cted by the Nicaraguan authorities of
be;nu tilibusters in disguise, and that as such
,b.v could not be permitted to land. The Eng
E.b steam frigates Leopard and Valorous were
IN the harbor, Sir William Gore Ouseley, the
Rrtjsh Minister, being on board the latter. I'm
nediatelv after the Washington anchored, she
r,s boarded by the English officers with side
rms. who came TO inquire about the passengers
md cargo. They desired to see the list of pas
sengers. to ascertain if they were Americans,
ana if thew brought arms and ammunition.
Tber were told that the ship had been boarded
and examined by an officer of the United States
shin Savannah, which was also in the harbor,
toaether with the jamestown. The English OF,
scers replied, that they were instructed (proba-
biz by Sir Gore Ouseley) to get the information
direct. They did not insist however, upon the
bstebes being taken of, and left rather sud-
denly.
The movements of the British steamers made
4; quite evident that they would interpose to
prevent the landing of persons supposed to be
fEbusters, but the act of forbidding the landing
Of the Washington's passengers came from the
Nicaraguan Government.
When the officers Of the Washington ascer-
tanned that the Government unrelentingly OPP
posed the landing of the passengers, they sailed
passengers to California by the Panama route.
Those who were unable to pay their way to
San Francisco by the Panama route were
brought back TO New York on board the
Washington, where they landed on Saturday
last
The connection which the Nicaragua Trans
it Company were believed formerly to have
had with Walker, was the ground of the violent
suspicion which was INDUCED against the
Washingtons passengers, and caused them to
be arrested in their career.
This event has happened in the nick of time
for our warlike President and his valorous
Secretary of State and if John Bull is not
made to apologize and atone for his presump-
tOn it will be pity.
