Our ANEw-By the Mexican schooner Brilliante,
Can't. Batista, arrived yesterday, from Sisal the

weeks later news from the Yucatan peninsula.
Politically the whole country was quieb,. the re-
dictionary party not having been able, since the
capture of their leader, to effect q re-organiTa-
t;on. but the war of races had broken out anew.
Our files, being imperfect, do not furnish the
date of the new movement among the Indians,

tho two important towns of lchmul and Peto,
with all the adjacent country stretching up into
md denredations of every kind upon the defence

haste to the threatened provinces, and again we

advantages gained over the savages, but they DO
not anpear to have been of decisive character
We notice that on the 25th the capital was
thrown into great excitement on the discovery
[that the Verginia's crown and other adorning'

Washington News.

WASHINGTON, April 20.-Genersl Burnett, Sur.
veyOr- General of Kansas and Nebraska, has been
informed by The commissioner of the Land Office
that in consequence of the smalluess of appropria-
zion, it will be necessary that the Of surveys in
his district shall not exceed $40 000 of which
$40 900 is appropriated surveys in Nebraska and
SIC 900 for surveys in Kansas The Kansas sur
vey fund has been appropriated for the survey of the
New ork Indian lands As soon as surveys are
comp,e ed half a section will be allotted to each
OF the Indians who may have removed there under
the provisions of The treaties of 1888 and 1912; af-
ter which the balance will be thrown into the pub
lie domain aad opened TO pre>emption. 1t is one CT
the NEST valuable sections of Kansas Territory.
In relation to Nicaraguan affairs many specuIa-
tons are INDUCED in, and some of the statements
concerning them are fundamentally erroneous
The true state Of the question is ascerIaineG 10 be-
that the treaty recently returned, is, with one ex
ceI ton, entirely acceptable to this government,
which has heretofore assented 10 it provisions The
exception is 10 the amendment, which, in substance,
provides that the United States shall engage to use
due vigilance and all lawful means to prevent the
organization of hostile parties il the United States
for the invasion of Nicaragua.
This is not considered important, but if ultimately
rejected by the President, WAC has it under consul
ration, doubt is entertained that the treaty will
be modfed by Nicaragus, in accordance with the
wishes Of this government. BY the treaty N!eara-
qua engages TO the Necessary force to keep the
transit route open but if, at any time, she should
fail to do So the United States have the right to land
troops to protect persons and property. Information
from Nicaragua leaves no doubt that the British are
acting in good faith and are making arrangements
for surrendering the Bay Islands and the Mosquito
Pretectorae. Such is the present state of Nicara-
guam affairs, as ascertained from authentic sources

While the Representatives Of the people leg.ate with
riye which Won enjoy CoI M conteDIs that they
should have power alter amend repeal the charters OF
wealthy powerful banking corporations,
your injury and oppression.-Jaioa and american.
Our contemporary does not fairly state Col Meth
erland's position The inference from the above
statement would be that Col Reiherland would see
the people suffer from " injury and oppression" by
banks ard lesve them no redress. On the contrary,
he is for securing them a more direct, accept
able AID more legitimate redress than legislation.
lie is first for SO guarding banks that injury aud
oppression cannot possibly ensue, without viola>
lion of their charter and Whenever that ceeu's he
is for turning these institutions 10 the courts
aud making il the duty Of the proper officer 10 pros
ecute them, take away their charters and enforce
such penalties as the best interests Of the country
may require-BaRH6r.
Col. NETHERLASD said nothing Whstever in his
speech in Nashville about SO guarding banks that
injury and oppression to the people cannot ensue"
This is merely suggestion o; the Burners. Col.
NETHERLAED took issue with the Democratic party
Ga that resolution Of our platform which reads:
RsolseI, That essential welfare State

abolish these private and privileged corporations he public
lie opposed the principle herein announced and
assigned no for bis oppOsitioa except those

dangerous for the Legislature retain the power
modify or abolish B4nt charters, as they might
exercise that power from improper motives lie
announced thattae reservation of such power by IN
Legislature would pat end 20 legitimate banking
and that the Introduction of this clause in our plat
form made it hard money platform. HI contends
that there should be no Legislative control of Bank
charters after they are granted. The Banner takes
similar position. It says, referring 20 the resOlu
ton We have quoted fro the Democratic platform
"We are opposed to all such schemes for putting
the Legislature and the incorporated companies
upon such relations toward each other We are
opposed to giving the Legislature any power over
the companies; and we are opposed TO making the
existenes of company depend upon its skill in
using money to bride members Of the Legislature"
Again the Banner says:
alt will be apparent to euy refe9iiug man who
gives the subject a mJGlenIs consideration that if
the Legislature is allowed 10 control Incorporated
companies, regular system of bribery aad corrup-
ton wall be instituted In This State"
Now it should have suggested itself to the Ban
aer's mind that the Legislature in imposing guards
and restrictions Bank charters might be Influenced
by the same corrupt motives it aludes to above, to
make them as liberal as possible.

The Patriot denounces Southern Democrats as dis
unionisls If such were The case, the Patriot ought
to excuse them, since they may have derived their
sentiments from a psrusal Of its own columns
Speaking Of the combination to exclude Kansas
from the Union, the Patriot said:
"The object is unquesorabl 10 reduce the slave
holding States TO hopeless minority in Congress,
and SO bring then to absolute dependence upon the
capricious will of a hostile majoriiy-to make one
portion of an equal co-sOvereign federation OF
States mere province to be held in subsection to
the other portion. Who denies these facts, has
read the history Of slavery agitation TO little pur
pose and that Of the Black Republican prrty to
much less. It then becomes question with sincere
and patriotic men every where, whether such a
state of affairs should be permitted, whether the
great fundamental principle of liberty and equality
upon which the Republic rests, shall be so uuder,
mined aud broken; and especially dOsg it becomea
grave question uLether The South yiH submit 10 It The
rejection Of Kansas although ICaEtd not
the ain. 5c0Ed JsSUch step in that direction could
make others easy and Her1 to inevitable"
If tie Patriot has since chosen to unite with these
who are seeking ito reduce the slaveholdng States
to 4 hopeless minority in Congress, and so bring
them to absolute dependence upon the capricious
will of hostile majority" it should not complain
that Southern Democrats will not tamely submit to
their dominion.
JoHN BELL, the most compromising of the Anti
Leoompton men, being ''tbe Representative-man and
leader of the great conservative Opposition party
which is preparing 10 control of the govern
ment," I've quote The Patriots language) southern
men may seriously anticipate from the triumph Of
that party all the dangers to the Constitution aud
the Union which our contemporary SO truthfully
described. Every man yet elected to Congress by
this opposition will oppose the admission of any
more slave States, by which means they intend, as
the Patriot said, "to make one portion of an equal
co,sovereign federation of States, a mere province
to be held in subsection TO the other portion"
Oar contemporary should not be surprised that the
nth resists the success Of this Opposition composed
almost entirely of anti>Lecompton men and Black
when the Patriot itselfhas uttered such
en.imcnts as these:
The present struggle therefore on the Of Kansas
could only have been avoided by the absolute and unconditional
surrender and submission OF the slaveholtng in
