War Against: Walker:
War has been declared against Nicaragua
by the government of Costa Rica, and 3,506
troops are under way, headed by Gen. Mora,
the commander•in-chief. The object of this•
movement is to"drive out the fillibustersn
der Gen. Walker, and to overthrow the % v.
ernment he hasestatlishedin l's'learagua. 4i
Walker has &gild a proclamation in wlch
he states: that ho - and the Americans under
his command were invited thither . by the
Democratic party of, the Republic, and-de
claresl that "against the servile parties and
servile govgnments of South America, the
Americans ,in Nicaragua are bound bye
common law of self-protection to '.decl .he
eternal enmity."
,Reinforcements are pour
ing in to Walker's aid from California.- Sell
eral skirmishes have'already taken placel, in'
•whicl] Walker's forces are reported' to Ibe
' 1
generally successful. , ' .
