The NIcARAGUAN IsrHMUs.-Itfs said that
DR.. Jerez, the dismissed Nicaraguan Commits.
sioner to this Government, has granted new
| charter to tho Nicaraguan isthmus transit to
some Mr.. Van Dyke, of New Jersey. If there
be truth in the story, the public may rely upon
it that it is simply an expedient on Jerez's
part to "raise the wind" for the time being
out of somebody. Time and again it has been
shown that even the Government Of Nicaragua
has now no legal right to grant a new charter
to run that transit, having vested the right in
an American company who have il IN yosses-.
sion, and have lately stocked it completely
with steamers, coaches, &c. As for Jcrezs
right to turn penny by assuming to make
such grant, it is as impudent as the recent
assumption Of Walker to do the same thing.
In the proclamation of the President, promuI-
gated on Monday last, it was clearly stated
that this Government recognized no right in
Walker, or the Nicaraguan Government in
eSse, to assume to dispose of the transit priyi
lege, because that is now the legal property of
the company Of American citizens whose river
and lake boats are already in place on the
line, according to the last news from Central
America. twill be perceived from the procla-
nation, by the by, that the policy of the Gov.
eminent with reference to the future of II a
transit across the Nicarsguan isthmus, as we'll

out to be precisely as the Star has maintained

A ROMANCE. "A paragraph is going the
rounds of the papers relating how man
named Frazer was recently arrested near
Baltimore, and committed to the Jail near
Moorestown, from whence he had escaped,
when under confinement for counterfeiting
The story is touched up with a little romance
concerning a sister of his, who is said to have
struggled hard fora livelihood in her younger
days, but who is now great lady at the
Court of France-all of which is true.
This Frazer was once a resident of our
county. lie came here with Lucien Murat--
son of the illustrious Murat and the beautiful
Pauline Bonaparte, nephew of the old and
cousin of the present Emperor. Lucien, as
sisted by this Frazer and French chap,
whose name we cannot recall, undertook to
build a city" on Indian river, between
Evans mills and Theresa. This was some 23
years ago. This trio were precious set.
Horse. racing and cock fighting were more
industriously attended to than legitimate
business; still a grist mill, few shops and a
store were put up, but in the end went down
under the sheriff's hammer. Thus began and
ended the great city of Joachim" The
- 9elii ntdhul15 as monument OF
Luclen Murats failures in this county. The
wright who built the mill still holds an ex-
presslve memento of Lucien in the form of
promiseto-pay," given for 81 800 worth of
labor performed.
After our adventures left the county, Fra
zer went to New York and got sick; Murat
went to Bordentown, New Jersey married
Frazer's sister, and remained poor His wife
actually supported him by teaching school.
Meantime, her brother continued to wax fat
and fast. He became noted as a gentleman
of wealth, leisure and pleasure, without Civ
ing thought, it is said to his relatives, who
were then under the frowns of fortune. The
throw of the dice box of destines, which
gave France into the hands of Louis Napo-
leon, also gave peace and glory to Lucien
Murat and his very worthy and hard work
ing wife. He is now one of the high digni-
taries of the empite, and she is one of the
first ladies of the Court. Thus, while the
sister occupies the Elysse Bourbon, at Paris,
the brother is awaiting his sentence to serve
in New Jersey State Prison. So the play"
