What act of peculiar devotion to the South has
he (Douglas) manifested within tho last two
years, and what do his boasted services in the
past amount to toh the modern Interpretation which
he gives to his pet measures? His favorite Kan

WAsulNGToN, April Alt is well understood
ithat'the Cabinet yesterday had under consider

{ AdviCes from the commander OF the James
town confirm the statements relative to the re
cent events in Nicaragua. Our govt has moth
ing from an official source later than the 10Th OF
Feb, relative TO the treaties, when tlat of Sir
Ousley of commerce, navigation and the transit
had been ratified, with an additional article Ia
the effect that Nicaragua surrendered none Of
her rights over Mosquito. The Mosquito treaty
was ut that time pending, and the Cas- YTissar-
ri treaty had not been acted on. Our govt will
accordingly await further reliable intelligence
before it can act decisiyely. So far as Great
Britain is concerned, iG it shall appear that Sir
OuSley has transcribed or violated his instruc-
tions, formal request will be made OF England
to disayow his acts, if she should not do so
voluntarily. 1t is thought. however, that she
will carry out in good faith the understanding
between the gov'ts of Great Britain aud the
United States, relative to the settlement OF
the irritating questions growing out of the diff
ferent interpretations of the Ciayton-Bulwer
treaty. Nor is it improbable, That should
Nicaragua rutify all the British treaties and re-
irct ours, that Minister Lamar will he with
drawn, and General Jerez, the Nicataguan Min
iSter at Washington, he rendered his passports.
Such is the position of the question according
to the best available Information, but much de-

concentrated at the most exposed points, for
the protection of the persons and property of
American citizens within their reach. To pro-
coed to the interior of the country would be an
act Of war, which will not be permitted, but
there is no doubt, from what has recently trans
pired, that the President will exert to the ut
most extent, all the power conferred upon him
by the constitution and the law.

excires additional fears for her safety.

Washington stating that the war in Europe has
actually commenced and that George Sanders
had brought despatch to that effect TO the
President Hon. W. POrchcr Miles, member
of Congress from Charleston, telegraphed back
that Lord Napier knew nothing about the re-
port. The Courier fails 10 be convinced.
