DrlnB IN tne missing nlliOusters.-
Notwithstanding tho care usod &
secnre the arms and stores, the
struggling fillibusters got a consid
cradle quantity OF them into th bush
and hid or buried them. -..
Among the plunder of the camp Q
few barrels or kegs Of whisky hst
not been forgotten. Jack could Gnd
all sorts OF things in the the bush
but, strange TO say, he always re-
ported "no whisky" 1t was very
amusing, however, to see Jack
driving in his prisoners. Every
little while a sailor might be OBJ
served emerging from the thicket
pompously, with cutlass and pisto
in hand, driving before him a poor
chop.iallen tillen liilibuster, both a.
hs Julius Caesar, from the influence
OF the whisky that Jack could no
find.
just as Walker hauled down hi
flag, the river steamer Charles Nor
can have in sifiht. She was iln
mediately possession of by Commo
doie Paulding. She was under com
lnand of one of Walkers officers
who went up the Colordo with Col
Anderson, and had on board about
40 men, women and children, found
lin Fort Castillo ut tho time OF its
capture, q day or two before, by
Anderson. She also had on board
two deeerters from Andereon's force
one OF whom was under sentence o.
death, and who W uld undoubtedly
have been shot had Walker not beer
compelled to surrender.
In appears that Anderson, after
encamping on Leafs Island, at the
junction of the Colorado with the
San Juan, dispatched 20 men OF his
AZ, five miles up the river, where
they landed on tue Costa Rica side
on the place Of a Costa Rican by
the name Of Pataca. Here they
were joined by Anderson, and the
whole force assembled the river to the
vicinity OF Castillo in the llat-bottom
ed boats brought out by the Fashion
Landing. theJ marched on the fort
which was taken by surprise, anc
with little or no resistance. 1t il
said that two Of the garrison wcrt
killed. 1t was under command o
Colonel Aluarado, and was nearl,
deserted, only 40 persons being
found in it, the main portion having
gone up to Fort San Carlos.
On Saturday, the 10Th, 0S mel
were dispatched to Norfolk in tn
Saratoga, and Gen. Walker, witt
his Secretary, Mr. Tabor, were re
ceived on board the Wabash, whio
arrived at Aspinwall OF Monda,
morning, 14th. While on the Wa
bash he messed with the Commodor,
and Captain Engle. His conluc
was very gentlemanly and concil
iating, in complete contrast Will
that he observed toward Commando
Davis, when on board the St. Marys
alter his surrender at Rivas. II,
says that Anderson can maintain
his position at Castillo two or thre,
months, if he wishes to.
1t is said that he took all the
steamboats, on the river, four il
number, which he holds now. with
the exception of the Charles Morgan
which Commodore Paulding placed
in charge OF Consul Cottrell, o. Grey.

remain at Greytown to receive An
derson's force when it shonld come
down the liver. On the 18th, aitel
the W'bash left Greytown, the Uni
ctd States steamer Susquhanna, Cap

will remain for the present. Th'
Fulton under command of Captai,
Almy, will guard the mouth of thu
Colorado.
1t is understood here that Hen
nigsen, with the artillery, and Col
j. VI. Waters, with a battalion O
Texas men, were to have left tn,
shores of the United States for Nj
caragua Immediately on news bein,

a fortnight before intelligence {
Walkers capture, it ia thought ths

does. there is not the least don't
about its being taken by either .h
