Nicaraguan Affairs,

New YORK, March 31-The Nicaragua
Legislature passed. on the 4th inst, a special
decree declaring the Transit Route free to all
nations, excepting that the Decentralization and
transporting of troops, arms, and munitions
Ofwar will not be permitted, unless in accord
ance with treaty stipulation with the repub-
lie
Col Schlessinger came passenger in the
Northern Light, having copy of the Ouseley
treaty. 1t is similar to the Cass- Yrissarri
treaty, with the exception that British troops
are to be landed only when demanded or asked
by the Nicaragua authorities. The Mosquito
protectorate is left for future negotiation.
A treaty similar to the Ouseley treaty has
also been considered with Sardinia. 1t recog-
nizes privateering as understood and estab-
lished by the Congress of Paris. A French
treaty is soon to follow. There is no doubt of
the fact that a joint protectorate of England,
France, and Sardinia, has been established in
Nicaragua
1t is said the seizure of American boats at
Castillo was made at the instance of Monsieur
Belly, and the American Consul there was
much abused and all the Americans routed.
Washington correspondence of the Tribune
Official dispatches received to-day bring no
confirmation of the ratification of the Ousely
treaty by Nicaragua, as rumored. But the
report is believed in diplomatic circles The
administration is now persuaded that Sir Gore
Ousey has acted in bad faith. No intention
was signifed of incorporating the clause in the
British treaty which Nicaragua has inserted in
ours with regard to the expulsion of fillibus-
tiers, and that condition will never be accepted
here. The President is inclined to fall back
on the Clayton Bulwer treaty, and to open the
transit at all hazards.

From Washington.

WASHINGTON, March 3l.-From all that
can be learned, it is not unsafe to say, that, if
the statement relative to VIM. Gore 0useley's
alleged action in Nicaragua are correct, he has
violated not only his own instructions, but the
solemn understanding between the British
Government and the United States. If the
facts are as stated, the President will, notwith-
standing the refusal of Congress to grant him
extraordinary powers to protect the rights and
property of citizens of the United States, ex-
act a conformity with whatever may have been
the stipulations between the two governments
respecting Ouseley's mission.
The recent outrage on the vessels of the
Atlantic and Pacific Steamship Company was
to-day brought to the attention of the govern
ment officials, who are reported to have said
that the property of American citizens shall
be protected The prospects now are that adj
ditional vessels will be despatched to Nicara-
qua.
Dispatches from the commander of the flag
ship Merrimac, dated harbor of Reaejo Feb.
%, say there is reason to believe that the re-
cent cruise Of the Decatur in the Gulf of Fon-
SEGA, has been productive of results highly ben
eficial to the interests of our country. The
object of the Decatur in going to San Juan,
was to protect the passengers of the steam
ship Hermann, which was expected to ar
rive early in March, and the presence of
one Of the vessels of the squadron being in
dispeDsable, she had been cruising, i'll pursu-
ance of orders, to intercept tilibusters. AT La
Union the Decatur was said to be the first Uni
ted States vessel that had visited that port.
She was visited by the governor of the depart
ment as well as by other officials. The first
national salute ever received by the national
flag Of San Salvador was given by the Deca-
tur, which was enthusiastically received by all
classes of people with immense enthusiasm.
Letters from distinguished sources inGParis
and London express the belief that there will be
no war, there being a prospect of compromis-
ing the matter
A rumor prevails that Signor Mata, Minister
of the Juarez government, who left here short
time ago for the South, has been invited to i'm
mediately return to Washington; but the ru-
NOR is ened
Our Government will not take further action
in relation to either government in Mexico, till
it shall have heard from Minister McLane.
Ran Runnels has received his commission
as Consul to San Juan del Sur.
Col. Seaton celebrated, with few friends,
last night, his golden wedding, having been
married fifty years, and for about that period
connected with the National Intelligencer.
