The PACIFIC MNLs.-The agent of the Asso-
ciated Press is, we apprchend, correct in an
nouncing in the Northern papers of this morn
ing, that the Government yesterday determined
to contract for the transportation of the mails
now carried between New York and San Fran
cisco via Panama, by the Nicaragua route from
and after the 3oth of September next, until the
end of the fiscal year 1S59-60, which expires on
June 3Oth, 1860. The law of 1915 authorizes
such contract to be made-not law of 1885
as typographical error made US say yester-
day. A very large saving to the treasury will
result from this change, as we'll as the solution
of the Nicaraguan imbroglio. We may also
add with perfect safety, that the prices for
travelling to and from San Francisco will be
reduced one half by the reopening of the MIC
aragua route.
