versed in the Transit diplomacy, and who
is represented as very influential with the
members of the Nicaragua Cabinet and Con.
gress, is tue appointed representative of the
applicants to Nicaragua, and will sail by the
steamer of the 9th, accompanied by a gen.
tleman from Costa Rica. whose assistance
has been already secured, and will carry

Snow IN THE MoUNrAINs.-At Omega, Ne

feet and a half deep. There was not a pound
of flour to be bought in the place. A pack
train was expected. however. in a day or
two. All mining operations had been sus-
pended. On the divide above Forest City,
snow was six feet deep on Sunday. At Al

There lately arrived in St. Louis. Mo-, sever

ANOTHER RUMoR FROM GUAYMAs.-The Ma

letter received 10y the Sonora from a passen.
ger on board the steamer Golden Age:
We stopped to night, Nov. llth, at 6.l5,
to take ON hoard our ship dispatches from
the sloop-of-war ST. Marys, which were
brought 10y one of her boats from the port of
Gnaynlas, at which place she is The report
Is from those who were in the boat, that a
light had taken place, and that Guaymas
was in possession of the sloop of war The
boat had been out nine days from Guavmas.
We came up to them about fifty miles below
Manzlnillo.
| cannot learn any of the particulars in
relation to the cause of attack 10y the St.
Marys, but report says 1t was the killing of
the American Consul Mt Guaymas. =
One thing, however, we have dispatches for
the Commodore of the Pacific squadron.

EARTHQUAKEs-The Alta notes as re-
markable coincidence, the fact that the earth
quake shocks felt in San Francisco about
uoon on the 9th of October, took place at the
same time with the great earthquake at Co
pilpo, in Chile, which destroyed a out halt
Of that city, and severely shook Caldera
Similar condolences, says the Alta, have
been remarked before, when destructive
earthquakes abroad were slightly felt in San
Francisco, especially that in 1854, which de-
stroyed portion of Jeddo. 1t establishes
the fact OF subterrinean communication OF
some kind under II vast extent of the earth i
surface; and also seems to show that the vol
canic agencies lose their force as they ap-
proach the North American coast. A COM
Portable conclusion ior such as choose to adopt

A POLITICAL GATHERING IN BALTIMORE
The Baltimore Exchange draws the following
not very pleasant picture of political meet
ing in that city
The conglome,ated rufianism of the town.
last night, paraded the streets and assembled
in mass meeting in Monument square. 1t
filled the spacious area between Battle Mon.
ument and Lexington street-it occupied that
within the Court House yard-it spoke from
the platform. The assemblage was a large
one. There were drums, cannon. rockets.
and transparencies. The Hon. Anthony Ken
nedy presided, assisted by sixty vice presi
dents The Hon. j. Morrison Harris wore a
wreath of flowers around his neck. The Hon.
ii. Winter Davis spoke, and over his head
was suspended huge emblematic awl, some
three feet in length. In front of the speak
er's stand was II blacksmiths forge in full
blast, which during the meeting ives employ.
ed in the manufacture of similar instruments
OF smaller dimensions. intended for distribu
tion among the crowd, and for use on the
day Of election.
The notices upon the transparencies which
were carried in procession, and arrang ID
around the platform, were of the most brutal
and indecent description. Some of them were
too obscene for publication. All of them dis
tinctly avowed the deliberate purposes of the
American party to triumph in the cominr
election by violence and fraud. Upon one of
them brought 10y the delegation from the
Eleventh Ward, was the inscription, "V .
will not count the votes" the meaning OF
which-by the destruction of the ballot
boxes in the Tenth and Twentieth wards at
the recent election-is made sufficiently oiain
Upon another was the significant declarn-
tion that "the Third Ward is awl right" the
word "awl" being substituted by represen
tatlon of that instrument On another trans
parency from the same ward, was picture
of clenched fist with the motto, with this
we will do the work" A transparency from
the Seventh Ward proclaimed the fact that
"the aw is useful in the hands of an artist ;"
while on another from tee Second Ward wrs
the insolent inscription "Reform ticket and
Reform Man-if you can vote, I'll be id"
On the transparency for the Seventeenth
Ward was the invitation, "eome up and
vote-there is room for awl."

New PHASE OF THE DUELLo.-A Spaniard
by the name of Jose Kistanyer, this morning
applied to Chief Burke for license to fight
Spani h sailor whose only name that we
know of was Juan, who. Jose said, was a
great big man, who continually followed him
about and called him hard names. The at-
plicant said he was ready to fight him with
any weapon, from clasp knife to blunder-
buss. and only desired the necessary permit
to do so He was very much chagrined
when told that the Chiefs business was to
prevent fights and arrest the belligerents.
and tnat there was no power to authorize
him to 90 out and have fair fights r.

CAMPAIGN AGAINST THE APAcHEs. s.-The Ari

The first movement of the campaign now
commenced against the Apaches, has been,
we learn, the capture of some 80 head OF
horses from party of the Pinas. The com
mand were advancing up the San Pedro. to
wards the Gia river, when they surprised a
party of Pinalenos, who succeeded in escap
dr3ivinS 3 int boweyer M numbering tbirty Iead Of
horses, fell into the hands of the troops
The Indians were probably from the Arivay-
pa canon, where they will be pursued. There
are many rancheries on the Arivaypa river
aud it is to he hoped, at least, a few Indians
may be captured, along with their stolen
pronertY.
