EmIGRANTS.

The United states Consul at Guayamas---

Mexican Minister d1es
The Washington Cores pOndent Of the New York
Times telegraphs under date Of the 23d follows;
photographed you last night that General WALK
Ea's friends suppose that he has left the United
States with i've hundred men for Nicaragua. Il
seems that anticipating difficulty at Mobile from in
reference by the Collector he selected about zee
hundred men who rendezvoused at another and
smaller port on the Calf, where the Revenue on,
GERS sympathise sufficiently in his plans, to be read
ly convinced of the legality Of the enterprise.
From this port it is supposed the party put to sea
within the last day two, and the point Of in>
tended departure was not suspected, il is thought
scarcely probable that they can be intercepted
cept it be when they approach the coast Of NicaraN
qua. Theexeitemens arising out Of the interference
with the Mobile party, was designed to be aVailed
Of 10 cover the more important movement elsewhere
The Law provides no penalty against Collector
who clears hlh5uster vessel His only danger is
that Of removal from office, the peeuniary incOuve>
nienee Of which the hibustersloan readily cOmpen-
safe.
Judge RosE, who is understood to have been ap-
pointed United States Consul at Guaysuas, and
Who left for thspoTt yesterday is also the agent Of
sn extensive scheme for the purchase Of lands,
mines and other property in Sonora in anticipation
The ida that Sonora can be purchased By the Unied
States has been quite abandoned Of late, / think,
By the Administration. The Constitution Of Mex
leo absolutely forbids any such sale-snd the Con-
stituiional Party-the only one frieudly 20 US
would not seek to eVade its provisions Indeed, 10
do 50 would be to seal its own destruction
But it is believed that we purchase right Of
way for railroad 70 connect Texas and New Or
leans with Guaysmas the Gulf Of California, UiG
Chihuahua-a route which has many earnest adEO-
Gates among Pacific Railroad men, A company Of
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Imsy mentiOnGe0rge Law,
and Col. Samuel Colt, Of pistol fame-havs organ
lied for the purchase Of property adjacent to the
proposed right Of way, and Judge Ross is their
Agent.
That these gentlemen have received encourage
ment here there can be no doubt, for they would
not enter so grand speculation without having good
reason to suppose that our Government is de,ermfn
ed to move in the Mexican question. Mr.. Buchanan
says he commends the ssgaeity and foresight Of the
men engaged in this enterprise.
Il is rumored that the President will very soon
agree to receive Senior Msta IS Mexican Minister,
and thus recognize the Government of Jusrel. The
moral effect or such a step would have no little in
fuenee in establishing the Constitutional leader in
the chair Of State.
What Is the precise design the articles nov pubs
fishing which annouee contemplated war By Spain
against Mexico it would be difieultto fathOm but
IL does not seem st all probable that Spain could be
guilty Of so suicidal an act.
Sueh quarrel would afford the Filbustef5 and
Cuban revOlutionsts precisely the opportunity that
they desire; for they could then make Mexico the
point Of rendezvous Of perfectly legal expedition
sVainst the sever faithful isles" and volunteers By
the thousand from tho United States, would not be
wanting 'sto fight the battles Of Mexico, and Incl
IDENTIFY prepare Cuba for American annexation"

fined upon charged OF Kidnapping, and for which

now cut upon bail, is still fresh in the memory Of
most readers, has added another hue to the infamy
that covers his name the particulars Of which are
given By The New Albany Tribune Of the 2Sd inst,
as follows:
disgraesful affair occurred at COrydon, on Sat
urday last in which Horace Bell played the 'hsro"
The facts Of the case are ss follows: Ben has been
attempting to pay attention 70 q sister Of DR.. ID n

distastful TO her family, and difficulty occurred
between DR.. Jones and Capt Bell in consequences.
On Saturday last Dr. Jones up 70 this ely and
