ANOTHER EXPEDITION AFTER WALKER.
The FTdncisco de ASsis also reports from
Omoa that still another expedition bad sailed
from that port on Tic 30th ult.. with the same
object in view--thc capture OF Walker. This
expedition consisted OF siSty-fve Guatema-
| lans, under the command of Col. G0doy. OF
| that State and :, humber Of HondurauS, who
| had been Joined TO them. The GGa:emaIans
| had been dispatched 10 OmOa, by Col. Caro-.
! The Governor If Izsbai, the adjacent depalt-
/ ment of that Stat. Immediately after i1Ielil-
| gence of Walkers landing i'll Honduras had
! been received. At 0mUa they were suitably
reinforced. and dispatched on a Government
/ schooner on the 2Uth. as before stated, nut
| nothing appears 10 bave since been heard of
! the expedition.
| HISTORY OF THE EXPEDITION.
Thus ends the last expedition to Central
America under Gen Walker, of which we
have recently heard SO much. The first IN
stalInent of il sailed from this port The 10th
Of April, and arrived at Ruatan Island the
| 3Ist of the same month. Gen. Walker him
self. however, did not arrive ill the 18th OF
June, soon after " ich the expedition was or
| ganized Us follows:
Gen Vim. Walker, General-incniet; Col.
A. F. Rudler, Colonel commanding; MAJOR
Z John V. HOof, acting Captain of Company
a; Major Thomas DOlan, acting Captain OF
Company Is; Capt J. 5. West. Chief of Com
/ Enissary Department.; Capt. Small, Chief OF
\ Ordnance Department; Lieut. John Ryan
i Chief OF Ouartermasier's Department; Noah
j. Parsons, First Lieutenant Company \
| The sub-officers and rank ami Gle numbered
| in all some hundred men, from u! parts Q!
! the Union.
/ On the 2Ist of June the entire party, With
] Cen Walker in command, lett Ruatan foT
! the leland of Cozumel, off the coast of Yu-
catan, where arms, ammunitions and pro
/ visions had been collected. Thence they
sailed again on the 9th for Honduras, but
not direct. AS before mentioned the British
man-ofwar IcGrus learns was watching them
/ and over a month was consumed in watching
| her in turn. On the 9th of August, however,
/ while the officers of the Icarus were enjoying
themselves at Belize, the expedition quiety
effected its landing at TruXillo, and took pos,
session of the city. The rest is too well known
to need reciting.
AS already stated, specicl condition IN
favor of Walkers followers was insisted upon
bv the British commander, when they were
delivered over to the Honduran authorities
and we have no reason to doubt 1t was faith
fully complied with. We may, therefore
expect them back by the next arrival Walk
| er himself, and Col. Rudler, his second IL
| command, have doubtless, ere this: suffered
the extreme penalty of their temerity N
