Lieut.. carey's Case.

New York, July 8.-A dispatch from
Capetown dated June 18th, via London,
says court of inquiry convened for
the purpose of examining into the con-
duct of Lieut.. Carey, in command OF
the scouting party to which the prince
imperial was attached at the time Of
his death. The friends of the lieu
tenant did not understand the position
in which he stood toward the prince
and was not aware that he was expect
ed to exercise any special guardianship
or care over his person. The court
however, goes on to censure him for
proceeding upon his reconnaissance
without sufficient escort for hating
and dismounting on dangerous ground,
acts which betrayed deplorable want of
military prudence.
The court regrets that no attempt
was made by Lieut. Carey to rally his
escort and try to confront the enemy.
After the court of inquiry, court
martial was organized to try Lieut..
Carey. Lieut.. Carey sets up in his own
defense that he was not in charge of
the party when the prince was killed,
and the evidence thus far submitted,
clears him of cowardice,

New York, July S.-A Washington
special to the San says: "An officer
who has accompanied the various sur
vey parties in search of a feasible route
for ship canal across Central Amer
lea, states that nothing practicable can
come from the present agitation in
Europe upon the subject, unless this
government takes the initiative. He
says also, had it not been for Hamilton
Fish yielding to the influences of the
Pacific Mail company, the canal would
already be under way, with the United
States government at the head of the
enterprise, He then relates how dur
ing Grants administration, and under
his direction the commission was
formed, with Admiral Ammen at the
head, which decided in favor of the
Nicaragua route; how Fish invited the
cooperation of the European powers,
the Nicaraguan government sending
her ambassador to the negotiation, and
how the Pacific Mail seeing ruin
for the Panama railroad, made such
pressure on Fish that he abandoned
the scheme. Here the matter has
rested so far as the government is con-
cerned. The friends of the old plan
are again trying to bring the govern
ment once more to assume the initia-
tive, claiming that it cannot afford to
allow any foreign government to strike
a spade in this project except under
the auspices of the United States
