DEBIOESATtC DESPAI R.
We predicted at the commencement of the
campaign that the . Democrats would conduct
it with every weapon of personal abuse and
slander that they could invent, and the tor
rent of falsehood and invective that has been
•poured out -upon General Grant and the
Republican party has justified the prediction.
But, accustomed as we are to the reckless
'tactics of the Democratic party, the inge
nuity arid Tepidity with, which its press is
forging and turning opt lies, upon all con
ceivable subjects, exceed all past experience.
Newspapers in this city and throughout the
country; conducted by men who, in their
personal relations, profess and call them
selves gentlemen, or, at least, de
cent members of Society, have surren
dered themselves to a system of warfare which
sinks every principle of truth and honor, in
the desperate struggle for a success of which
they have little or no hope. Quotations from
Republican journals are daily reprinted in
wilfully distorted and falsified shapes, and
then made the texts for assaults, the whole
points of which are derived from some inge
nious interpolation, or omission of the origi
nal text. Charges against the Republi
party and its candidates are fabricated out of
the whole cloth. Opinions and declarations
are put in the mouths of prominent Republi
cans which were never spoken; and so the
war is carried on with a wild disregard of all
truth which can only spring from the very
depths of despair.
While this is the general aspect of the tac
tics of the Democratic journals, the opera
tions of the political managers indicate the
same sorts of desperate determination to
win at all and any cost. The frauds that car
ried Pennsylvania last year are dwarfed into
insignificance before those that are now con
templated, and in course of execution. In
this city and State, gigantic schemes of colo
nization are being concocted; and we may
• expect such attempts to pack the Democratic
Wards and districts with fraudulent voters as
have never yet been made. The out
lines of some of these nefarious schemes have
already been foreshadowed in various direc
tions, and will develop themselves rapidly
from this time until the election.
The Democracy is thoroughly desperate;
, but this despair will avail nothing. It only
has the effect of betraying the wretched weak
•ltteBß of a bad cause, and of encouraging and
arousing the people
„to more earnest efforts
for the election clif4 General Grant. The
knowledge of the desperate straits to which
the enemy is reduced is producing a more
perfect organization of the Republican party
than ever before; and while there is a sleep
less vigilance exercised toward the plots and
schemes of the Democracy,there is a determi
nation to bring out the whole popular vote
both in October and November, and so to
carry out the people's will, in spite of Demo
cratic falsehood and fraud. This its the peo
ple's contest. General Grant is the people's
choice; and the more plain becomes the de
sign to deceive and defraud, and betray them
into the hands of the very spirit of rebellion,
the more spirited will be their determination
to put none but tried and loyal men in all the
places of public trust and honor. The de
spair of the Democracy is the sure sign of
their overwhelming confusion and defeat.

The month of "fall trade," fall fashions,
- returning absentees, re-opening schools, re
-'ival of oyster-eating, equinoctial storms and
political excitements, has opened again, but
with .a hot atmosphere that is not in the least
- refreshing. He is a bold, rash man, who will
order an oyster supper to-day because there
is an rin September. He is a foolish man
who will desert a cottage by the seaside be
cause this is the first da of the first autumnal
month. She is a deluded female who comes
horn the country or the ocean to-day, to
parade her Grecian bend, or her patent panier
bustle,in Chestnut street. They are courage
one politicians, who join in processions, by
hot sun-light, or equally hot torch-light, in
this steaming weather.
But the date, the Ist of September, is at
least encouraging and full of promise to the
unfortunate people who have not been able to
quit the oppressive city during the long sum
mer. There must lit? gx, end to the summer,
however long. The sun must arms the equi
noctial line on the 21st of September, and the
fierce heats of the season must abate then, or
soon after. The schools must open, accord
ing to the promises made in the Buu.srfris
advertising columns. The oysters cannot
help getting into good condition for human
consumption. People must come back
to town—all of them, at least, who
have not purses of indefinite length. There
must be a State election in October and a
Presidential election in November, and the
politicians of both parties must work briskly
Beptember. To the working politicians

(Joel-ultimo AND COPPAR.FAWCZNED
LOGIC.
The daily Copperhead organ in this city
commences an article upon the prospects of
the Republican party with the following
words:
- Theiwople - own - these - United - States: -- Eight
years ago they let them to the Radical party in
good condition, producing well in all the depart
ments of industry. The lease is about expiring,
and the lessees apply to have it renewed for four
years."
It then goes on to argue that the property
is not in as good condition now as it was
when the Republican party entered upon pos
session, and that therefore the lease should
not be renewed.
Let us see how far this assertion of the pre
mises being "in good condition" at the time th 9
Republican tenants came in, will accord with
the truth of history. On the Fourth of
March; 1861, when the lease ' commenced,
ten States of the Federal Union, instigated
thereto and encouraged by the Democratic
party, had passed formal ordinances of se
cession. In no one of these ten States did
the stars and stripes float; in no one of them
could the new tenant collect one dollar of
revenue, for all the,Custom-Houses had been
given up to the rebels by the Democratic
tenant of the White Home; while the new
tenant found himself without forts, money,
arms or ships with which to
maintain his authority , or assert
his rights. The old tenants had either
seized or scattered all these necessary ad
juncts to successful government, and what
was not destroyed or wasted was in the hands
of the bitter and most vindictive enemy of
the new tenant. Besides the ten States that
had declared themselves out . of the Union,
Virginia was preparing to go out,
,and the en
tire range of border slave States .were in a
condition of quasi insurrection that caused
the new tenant more trouble. than If they had
been in open rebellion. Two-thirds of the
property upon which the Republican. party
had obtained a four years' lease, was beyond
its control when it entered upon possession,
and through no possible fault of its own.
The old-tenants were clearly responsible for
this condition of things. And this was get
ting the property in good condition!
But this was not all. The. Southern branch
of the old Democratic firm that held the
former lease set to work to destroy as far as
possible the remainder of the property. They
made numerous attempts-to seize the Federal
Capitol, they murdered the people of the new
tenant, they burned his towns and ships and
they attempted to spread disease and death
throughout the estate. And this was getting
the property in good condition !
But this is not all. The people who owned
the property perfectly understood all the
troubles of the Republican tenant, and they
also knew that the estate only desired to
get possession of the property for their own
purposes of rule or ruin. They accordingly
renewed the lease. The opposition then
butchered the chief representative of the
Republican tenants, and having got a creature
of their own in his place,they are endeavoring
to complete the work of destruction begun by
Davis, Lee and Semmes. And all this dam
age and trouble is charged to the tenant who
has already suffered so shamefully at the
hands of the opposition!
If our Copperhead cotemporary were to
lease a property and find two-thirds of it in
flames when he went to take possession of it,
and incendiaries on the look-out for a chance
to fire the remaining third, he would hardly
be willing to agree that the property was "in
good condition" at the time when his lease
began. Such logic as this which we have
taken as the text for this article shows the
desperate straits to which the colleagues of
Forrest and Wade Hampton are reduced in
their efforts to make out a case against the
Republican party, which saved the country
during four years of war, and which will save
it again in its new peril.
NIGRO WORSHIP IN THE SOUTH.
The most advanced, radical and progressive
abolitionists of the North never showed such
extravagant admiration of the negro as is
now paraded by the Democratic politicians of
the South. They are down on their knees
before the negro, since he has become a voter.
They make speeches to him. They write
and print addresses to him. They show the
highest respect for his intelligence. They lie
to him, and they try to reason with him, to
convince him they are not lying.
The poor black creatures who were pro
nuunced unfit to take care of themselves,
unfit to vote, unfit to reason, unfit to form an
opinion,have suddenly become endowed with
all the attributes of intelligent human beings,
in the eyes of the Southern politicians. The
once despised and maltreated slave is exalted
to be not only free, but equal to the white, if
not superior; for the white goes begging for
his to and promises him all sorts of favors
if be will give it. The white Seymour and
Blair men of the North still abuse "the
nigger;" but the white Seymour and Blair
-men-of-the-Soutl invite "t e-rtigger"—to-their
meetings, listen to his speeches, and give him
the choice of seats at "barbecues" and other
political banquets.
The Northern Seymour and Blair organs
do not copy the flattering appeals to the
intelligence of "the nigger" that appear in
Southern organs of the party. Nor do the
Southern Seymour and Blair organs copy
any of the numerous tirades against "the
nigger" that appear in the World and all the
other Democratic organs in the North. But
those people who see the party papers from
all parts of the country cannot help being
amused at the different views of the negro
held by Democrats North and Democrats
South. A black man's
. vote is despised at
the North, but it is respected and begged for
at the South. And no matter how much the
negro may be despised by the Democrats of
Pennsylvania and New York, be is highly
respected by the Democrats of South Caro
lina. The Northern Abolitionists used to be
jeered at as "nigger-worshipers ;" but the
true "nigger-worship" is to be found now in
the Carolinas, Georgia and Alabama.
General Carl Schurz, in the course of a
speech which he made in this city, yesterday,

charge of despotism which has been brought
against the Republican majority in Congress.

"The United Security Life Insurance and
Trust Company of Pennsylvania" is a new
institution, whose advertisement appears in
our columns to-day. It is incorporated by
the State, with a capital of one million of
dollars. George H. Stuart, Esq., is Presi
dent, and the Directors are all business men
of high character and responsibility, so that
there can be no question concerning the
soundness of the company. The business of
insurance on lives grows even at a greater
ratio than the population of the country, and
this new corporation will undoubtedly secure
a very large, share of it.

recommended the men who talk thus flip
pantly to read some hand-book of history,and
learn how ;conquerors disposed of the con
quixed in Europe. Across the water, 'men
said to be rebels had been hanged by thou
sandsovhile themilds of_Biberia were covered
with the bones of those who had been driven
into exile. If it were true that the Republi
cans had inaugurated a despotism,we would
not see such men as Forrest and his compan
ions dictating to the people their candidate for
President. Instead of this,they would long ago
have been hanging from the gallows. Wade
Hampton would have been biting the dust,
and Wise would have been food for the
worms, instead of predicting the success of
the "lost cause." This is as true in point of
fact as the argument is conclusive. Posterity
will read with amazement the histoiy of a
wanton, wicked rebellion; it will marvel at
the forbearance of the victors at the close of
the great struggle, and it will admire the sub
lime impudence of foiled and beaten traitors
who presume to dictate candidates' and prin
ciples for the nation which they have so deeply
wronged.
At the time when Mr. "Bob" Onld, the re
bel commissionei of exchange of prisoners,
undertakes in the interest of his Democratic
friends to attack General Grant, and lay upon
him the responsibility for the snaring of our
soldiers in , rebel prisons, it is. interesting to
unearth such documents as the following. It
was writte4 from City Point while the ex
change was in progress:
But: A flag-of-truce boat has arrived with 350
political prisoners, General Barrow and several
other prominent men among them.
I wish you to send me at 4 o'clock, Wednesday
morning, all the military prisoners (except offi
cers) and all the political prisoners you have. If
any of the political prisoners have on hand proof
enough to convict them of being spies, or of
having committed other offenses which should
subject them to punishment, so state opposite
their names. Also state whether you think . ,
under all the circumstances, they should be re
leased.
The arrangement I have made works &ripely in
our favor. W e get rid of a set of miserable
wretches, and receive some of the best material
ever saw.
ROBERT OOLD, Agent of Ssehange
Brigadier-General WINDER.
This tells the whole story. The rebels
starved our men until they were helpless in
valid; and then sent them back to us, skele
tons, in exchange for the hearty, well fed re
bels who had been under our care, and who
were placed immediately in Lee's army.
0 uld's letter is evidence that this was a part
of a deliberate, devilish system, and not the
consequence of inability to procure supplies.
General Rosecrans appears to be the cus
todian of the ulamalum of General R. E.
Lee as to the amount of Northern concession
that will pacify the South. A little urchin
once asked his mother to save a piece of cake
until he got cross when it would pacify him.
A reasonably good spanking generally
answers as well as cake in such an emer
gency. Bobby Lee & Co. had the spanking
and under Democratic encouragement they
are now pouting for concession cake. The
general impression outside of Copperhead
circles is that they got off too easily three
years and a half ago, and the result of the
November election will show that their
chances for pacification cake are very slender
indeed.
The Antique Class of the Pennsylvania
Academy of Fine Arts begins its studies to
day, under the direction of Prof Christian
Balinesele. The collection of casts for copy
ing is unique in America, and the opportunity
for gratuitous improvement under an artist of
such thorough education as Prof. Schussele
is certainly a chance to be highly valued by
young persons who desire to make the Fine
Arts their profession. Study from the Life
Model, under the same competent tuition,
will follow a little later.

NEW -- EGYPT, NA., September I.—A - severe
storm passed over this place yesterday afternoon.
The rain poured in torrents and was accompanied
by sharp flashes of lightning and heavy peals of
thunder. At the house of Judge Jobes, of Ocean
county, located about a mile and a half from this
place, a distressing accident occurred. Anna 8.,
aged 16 years, and Hannah M., aged 12 years,
danotiters of ildr.Jobes, were instantly killed by a
stroke of lightning. They were on the piazza. One
was standing on the floor; The other was upon
the seat, with one arm around the neck of her
sister, and a hand on her shoulder. The light
ning struck a large buttonwood tree in front of
the piazza, glanced off and killed both sisters.
The bolt must have passed betiveen them.' The
hair of both, on the, side which they had to each
other was , singed, and there was also a mark
along_the side.of the face.— One—shoe—of each
was torn, where the fluid evidently passed out.
A piece of the seat, where one of the girls had
her foot, was taken out as clean as lilt had been
done with a chisel. A 'post against which one
was leaning was splintered.
A brother of the young ladies was lying upon
a sofa in the parlor at the time. The lightning
struck a mirror hanging over his head, cracked
it in two places, bblekened the frame anff then
descended to the sofa, passing 'out of one leg,
breaking it in three places and knocking the
castor off. The young man was thrown upon
the floor and had his left arm mad both legs
scorched.
A young lady, who was sitting within three feet
of the deceased, vas slightly attained, and. two
thildren who were plang on the ground *ere
thrown flat on their faces, but fortunately
were not severely Injured.
The Methodist Church ,in this place was struck
by lightning and slightly damaged. z - -

CRIME.
Horrible Alurder on tbe Eastern Whore
of Maryland
A most horrible and cold-blooded murder was
perpetrated in Queen Anne's county, Md., early
on Friday morning, the particulars of which are
thus given in the Centreville Citizen of Saturday:
A man named Reamy Gilmore, an industrious,
honest and inoffensive farmer, aged about forty
years, residing on a farm belonging to the heirs
of the Into Budge Chambers, on the road from
Church Rill to Chestertown, about four miles
from the former and two, from the latter place,
was found dead at 113 early hoar on Friday morn
ing, and his wife lying in an insensible condition,
bet still alive, by a negro man and woman who
bad been engaged by Mr. Gilmore to "save fod
der" for film. They immediately gave the alarm
to one of Mr. Gilmore% neighbors, who made the
fact of the murder known to the officers of the
law, and Justice Tarbutton, of Crampton, sum
moned a jury of inquest, and among the wit
nesses was a negro woman, Martha Barwick, Mr.
Gilmore's cook,, who at first. denied all know
ledge of the murder, but finally confessed that a
certain negro man in the neighborhood, who was
lu the habit of visiting her,. named Michael Bell,
and herself, had formed a plot to murder and rob
Mr. Gilmore, which plot'was intended to be put
in execution on Friday.' night, but from some
eatise, on Thursday night the - time Was changed
and the deed perpetrated on Friday, morning, be
tween daybreak and sunrise.
Information was afterwards obtained that Bell
Made his way to the river, just beloW Chester
town, and; procuring n - email boat, boarded 'the
steamer Chester Lisette passed, and itis supposed'.
went to Baltimore, On obtaining this informa
tion, parties.were sent to intercept the steamer
Trumpeter, in the Sassafras rive: who went In
pursuit of the murdenir,and as the Trumpeter has
a muck shorter route than the steamer Chester,
she generally arrives in advance of that boat, and
it is confidently, hoped that the murderer. as . ar
rested upon his arrival in Baltimore.
The jury of intim:it rendered a verdict in ac
cordance with the above facts, when the woman
was committed to jail by Justice Tarbutton as an
accessory to the murder; and was handed over to
the jailor by Constable Gafford.
The Centreville Citizen has also the following :
"We learn that a difficulty occurred between
two negro men on Friday morning, on the farm
of Dr. Decourcey, near Queenstown, when one
seized a club and dealt the other such a severe
blow as to cause his death. We did not learn the
names of the parties."
WHOA NEW YORK.
NEW Yong, September lst.—Mr. Wm. Wheat-.
ley last night bid farewell to Nitalo's theatre. At
the end of the first act be. was loudly called for,
and in response made his appearance in front of
the drop curtain. He was most enthusiastically
cheered, and in acknowledgment made the fol
lowing brief Fceecb:—
LADIES AND GE , .STLEMBN—I• appear before you
this evening to say farewell after a lifetime de
voted to your service as actor and manager.
During that long period it has been ..my earnest
aim and endeavor to do ray duty to all with
whom I have had business relations. ,That my
efforts have been crowned with success is evi
denced in the reward of a generous public, which
enables me to withdraw from my toils and re
spopeibifitiee, and in the very many affectionate
expressions of regret at my retirement re
ceived from the members of my profession.
In taking a final leave of the stage the
satisfaction is naturally mingled with sorrow,
for my coimPetiou with it has been truly a labor
eflisce, and I look back upon my seven years at
Niblo's with feelings of pride and pleasure. In
the very height of its prosperity and renown
resign the management to my energetic, and
enterprising successors; Messrs. Jarrett & Pal
mer, wishing them a bright and brilliant future
of success, which I am confident they will achieve.
And now, ladies and gentlemen, I must pro
nounce that last sad word "that must be and bath
been," that "sound which makesi us linger," to
one and all, respectfully, farewell.
As the last word fell from his Ups a shout of
cheers such as never before has been heard within
the walls of this theatre rent the air from parquet
to dome.
The remaining three Deputy Sheriffs who were
concerned In the Broadway theatre affray were
released on bail yesterday In the amount of
e 15,000 each.
A number of whisky distilleries in this city,
which have suspended operations by order of the
revenue officers for the last few months, recom
menced business yesterday under the new law.
The Tobacco Manufacturers' Protective Associ
ation held their second meeting at the &cubes

Dangerous Epidemic in "York.
~It is stated that a mansions fever, of a malig
nant type, has broken out at York, Pa., espe
cially in that section east of Main street bridge,
and a large number of persons (one account says
hundreds) are down with it. Dr. John Hay, a
leading physician, died of the 'disease on Wed
nesday. The York Pennsylvanian, of Saturday,
referring to the disease, remarks:
If a good many individuals in this place are at
present prostrated with sickness, the number of
deaths Curve thus far been comparatively few.
The cases which have terminated fatally have
been mostly confined to adults. The query
arises on all sides—" What is the cause of the
sickness?" Some say It is produced by using
water from the Codorus for drinking and culi
nary purposeeLthat the washings of ore in the
upper portions of the meandering stream
have imparted impurity and the seeds of sickness.
Wo scarcely believe the fever is occasioned in
consequence of the water, though the ore-washing
in the Codorue at least renders the water cloudy
and unclean, and for these reasons alone the
practice should be prohibited.
Our physicians themselves do not know to
what cause to assign the sickness. Some of them
claim one think=-some another. The exmeslYe
- hot weather In Jury may have something to do
with it. But then it was as hot in the country,
where there is no sickness, as in town. If the
filthiness of sewers, and stagnant and foul places
In streets and alleys arc accessories, these evils
will be remedied, the town authorities having
caused lime to be sprinkled freely on such spots.
It is hoped and believed that a copious rain and
and the approach of cooler weather will result in
more healthfulness.

New York Money Market.
(From the New York Herald of todazd
Auo. 31.—The gold market opened at 145 and
remained firm during the early part of the day,
but. it subsequently declined to 14434, and the
closing lannsactkeut prior to the adjournment of
the board at three o'clock were at 144%. Fol
lowing this there was a very limited 'amount of
business transacted, and the latest quotation on
the street was 144%@144%. There was an ac
tive borrowing demand for coin, growing out of
the large "short" interest outstanding, tht u az
ulistive temper of_the Gold Room being
and loans were made without intermit to either
borrower or lender, and at rates varying from
one to three and a half per cent. The gross
clearings amounted to 20,033,000, the gold bal
ances to $1 417,350, and the currency pittances
to $2,036,285. The Sub-Treasury disbursed
$16.000 in coin in payment of interest on the
public debt during the day. The imports of
specie at this port from foreign porta last week
were $43,824, making a total of $4,999,333 since
the Ist of January. The September interest on
the ten-forty loan, amounting to $3„275,000, falls
due to-morrow, and the bears in gold have con
strued this as an argument in their favor, but to
all appearances this disbursement hue bee hilly
discounted.
Money continues in very abundant supply and
loans are made on government seetuities at three
er cent and other satisfactory eollaterals at four,
the latter foam the genexal rate, although the
banks are unable to employ a large portion of
their surplus funds even at three. Me if, how*
ever, rejected as a collateral by both the banks
and other money lenders, unless in small
and moderate amounts, when mixed with
other securities, as there is no knowing how
soon it may fall much lower. This monetary
ease still fails to stimulate speculation in railway
stocks on the part of the outside public, and
these securities consequently depend for support
upon the cliques and the section of the street
operating for a rise, The amount of commercial
paper offering is light and the applications for
accommodation from the West are small, while
the remittances of currency to that section con
tinue on a greatly reduced scale.
Government securities have been less largely
dealt in to-day than usual of late, and efforts
were made by the bears to depress quotations.
At the first call and immediately afterwards
prices consequently showed a decline, but at
noon their tendency was upward. The present

Auousr 31.—Tte Government bond market
was a little off in the morning under the pressure
of short Bales. The 1867 s were sold down to
107%, but afterwards advanced, and closed firm
at 108 to 108%. The new 1865 s were in demand
for shipment. Borne orders were received to,
day from the West to buy bonds, and the demand
over the counter is improving. The difficulty of
lending money on 1144 class loan, is inducing
purchases of Government for the sake of making
interest.
The money market is easy at 8 to .4 per coat.

Mr. RoUlus„in a conversation lately, asked
Mr. Ashton, Assistatit Attorney General, whether

replied that he was in doubt and had written to
Mr. Everts on the subject. .
' Front Washington.
WASIIDIGTON, Sept. I.—COEOII/1881012er. Rollins
has recommended to the Secretary of the Trea
sury for appointment, Spencer Kirby, as Super
visor under the new - internal revenue law for
the city of New , York, but. the President is in
favor of General T. W. Eagan for that position.
The President has Issued a proclamation an
nouncing the ratification of the treaty of friend
ship, commerce and navigation between the
United States and the republic of Nicaragua.
There is to be a reciprocal freedom of commerce,
but toy this the privilege of carrying on the boast,
lug trade is not understood. Among other pro
visions the republic of Nicaragua grants, to the
United States and to their citizens and property,
the right of transit between the At
kintle and Pacific oceans through the
territory of that republic on any route of com
municition,natural or artificial, whether by land
or by water, which may now or hereafter exist,
or may be constructed under the authority of
Nicaragua, to be used and enjoyed in the same
manner and upon equal terms by both
republics and their respective citizens, the
republic of Nicaragua, however, reserving its
rights of sovereignty over the same. The United
States agree to extend their protection to all
such routes of communication as aforesaid, and
to guarantee the neutrality , and innocent use
of the same. They also agree to employ their,
influence with other nations to induce them to
guarantee such neutrality and protection, and
the republic of Nicaragua in its part
undertake to establish one free port at such ex.
tremity of one of the aforesaid routes of commu
nication between the Atlantic and Pacific oceans.
At these ports no tonnage or other duties shall
be imposed or levied by the Government of
Nicaragua, or the vessels of the United
States, or on any effects or merchandize
belonging to citizens, or subjects of the
United States, or upon the vessels or
effects of any other country intended bona fide for
transit across the said routes of commanicatiob,
and not for consumption within the republic of
Nicaragua. The United States shall also be -at
liberty, on giving notice to the Government or
authorities of . Nicaragua, to carry troops and
munitions of war in their own vessels or other
wise, to either of said free ports, and shall be
entitled to their conveyance between them with
out obstruction by said government or authori
ties, and without any charges or tolls whatever
for their transportion on either of said routes,
provided said troops and munitions of war are not
intended to be employed against Central Ameri
can nations friendly to Nicaragua, and no higher
or other charges or tolls shall be imposed on the
conveyance and transit of persons and property
of citizens or subjects of the United States, or
of any other country, across the said routes of
communication than are or may be imposed on
the persons or property of citizens of Nicaragua,
and the republic of Nicaragua concedes
the right of the Post-Master General of the
United States to enter into contracts with any
individuals or companies to transport the mails
of the United States along the said route of com
munication, or along any other routes across the
Isthmus in its discretion, in closed
bags, the contents of which may not be
intended for distribution within the said republic
free from the imposition of all t axes or dues by
the government of Nicaragua. But this liberty
is not to be construed so as to permit such indi
viduals or companies, by virtue of this right, to
transport the mails, to carry also passengers
or freight, and is further agreed and un
derstood, that in any grants or
contracts which may hereafter be made or en
tered into by the Government of Nicaragua,
having reference to the inlet-oceanic routes
above referred to, or either of them. The rights
and privileges granted by this treaty to the Go_
vernment and citizens of the United States shall
be fully protected and reserved, arid if any such
grants or contracts now exist of a valid character,
it is further understood that the guarantee of
protection of the United Statess i tiptdated in this
treaty, shall be held inoperative and void
until the holders of such grants and
contracts shall recognise the concessions
made in this treaty to the overnment and
citizens of the United States veth respect to
such inter-oceanic route, or either of them,
and shall agree to observe and be governed
by these concessions - as fully as if they had been
embraced in their original grants or contracts.
after which recognition and an - men:tent said
guarantee and
, protection shall be in full force;
provided that nothing herein contained shall be
construed either to affirm or to deny the validity
of said contracts.
