Tic Washington Constitution, after stating
that the British government had refused
to ratify the Ou-ely reatywith Nicara-
qua. and that it hs- instructed Sir William
Gore Ou-clev to negotiate fresh treaty
in conformity with the understanding
which exists between Great Britain and
the United State, with regard to their
common policy in Central America, adds
We have been grttiiied likewise, to
learn. g- another proof of the loyalty
pyiue-i iv England 10 her negotiations
with this country, that her government
have positively refused to protect NIcara-
gun against the consequences Of the cap
turr. ly order Of the authorities OF the
latter country. of thc American steamers
ON Lake Nicaragua. on the ground that
they consider the seizure of the boats en-
tirrly ILLEGAL and not to lr defended I'M
der any circumstance.
NJ. F-liy Belly. too. has applied to .
Great Britain for her protection ia the /
prosecution or his canal schemes: but his /
request has been fatty refused. II ha, /
also been utimatod To- this adventurous |
gentleman that the only interest Great I
| Britain has IN the construction Of canal
or road acro-, the Nicaragua isthmus i
I that which she feels IN common with the
. other commercial nations ia the world,
namely. n desire to have the free and I'M
/ interrupted right 10 use the canal or road
| whenever il is made.
These evidences OF the good faith Of
/ Great Britain fully justify the belief that
she j, sincerely disposed to carry out all
her cngo eemcuts with this country in re-
gard 10 Central American questions.

the I1ca6c Monthly at Boston, Ia publica-
ton we HIo not receiTe7 written by Mr..
EIcHAKD II. DANA, one Of the literary
abolitionist, Of New England. What the
writer -ay- is very suggestive. and, if his
associates at home are capable Of thinking
on the subject at all, ought to give them
pause"
The Abolitionists of the North have all
along been worshipping the ideal Of nc
gro-not the reality. Their orators and
-la-hing philanthropi-t~, who would swear
at YOU for caring nothing about religion,
, and putyou to the torture if YOU dare to
, differ from themselves. have been talking
: about putting the black man on an equal
