THE TRIBUNE UNDERSTANDS


The subjoined item appeared in the New York
Tribune Of the Goth instant:
We understand, from very good authority, that the
gray-eyed man of destiny" has organized new
piratical flbusterng expedition to invade Nicaragua
and that the "emgrants will sail from this port
on Tuesday or Wednesday Of this week. Active re-.
cruiting has been going on for some time, and very
respectable force as to numbers has been engaged.
Walker Is still sangune of final success and laughs
at the pretended opposition of the United States
Government.
We opine the Trbunes " very good authority is
about on par with the patriotism and personal
bravery OF its principal editor, and should be cacu-
lated with an eye single to his welknown regard for
truth and decency Any other process of estimation
would unquestionably lead to error.
Down here we are toleraby well posted in regard
to movements having the regeneration of Central
America in view, and while we consider General
Walkers former enterprises in the highest degree
praseworthy and patrotIc-the very antipodes of
piratical flibusteriugh-w do not look to New
York Abolition sources for information. Anything
that appears in such quarters, we emphatcally re.
pndiate. .m....
We do calculate, however, although possessed Of
no positive information in the premises that the re-
generation of Central America will be accomplished
long period before the calendar of time is ex
hanstpd.

GARREr DAVIS AND CAPT. SIMMs.-The st Louis
Republican of the 2lst says:
AS has been heretofore stated, Garret Davis and
Capt. Simms were at Cincinnati on Sunday and
Monday with their friends, arranging the prelimina-
ries of a hostile meeting between them. This meet
ing grew out of publication made by Davis, in one
of the papers of the Ashland District, to which
Capt. Simms took exceptions and denounced it from
the stand in strong terms. Davis being present,
avowed the authorship, and harsh and opprobrious
words passed between them. Garret Davis, it is un.
derstood was the challenger. Without going further
into the matter, however, it is gratifying to know
that the difficulty was satisfactorily and honorably
terminated before going upon the ground. A dis.
patch was received last evening announcing this re-
sult.
