WALKER'S NEW REPUBLIC.J The Intelligence by the Inst arrival frotn Nicaragua seems to have placed I 01. 11 sil ver's new Republic upon a basis that has at Ir-ast the promise of permanency, and it j may he, through the increase of North American emigration, and the admissiou ol N'onh American influence. industry and pro press, prove one of final good to the country. The aspect of Col. Walker's for- j tunes have of late undergone a wonderful change. A filibuster by instinct and in- j clination, a few months since he seemed to be destined to miss entirely the success that can only cild the reputation of an udven- ( turer, *1 to sink below the fear into the | eontcsrtpt of his fellow men. His irruption into Lower California was a hopeless and disastrous failure, and would have served : for life time's experience in such underta kings with most men. 15ut he had scarcely j escaped the outlawry threatened hy the Courts at San Francisco, when ho found a new field for his revolutionary attempts, and at the head of a mere platoon of men. grown desperate of the world and careless ot fate, j invaded Nicaragua. Kven there he was | threatened with a repetition of his Sonora j experience. He and his motley followers j wrre alternately ridiculed and buffeted i -bout, until watching the chances of a j countrv always agitated by intestine com- i rnotien, he seized iis chief city, and taking fortune at its fbod, beat and dispersed its native troops, skillfully assumed the clnm- | pior.shin of the democratic party in the ' ttmtgle, dictated a peace on his own terms j when nothing tuure was to he nude by war > eli vated his chosen puppet to the Presiden cy, keeping for himself tho real fovrer in the control of the army, and has now sue cccde 1 in securing from the American Min ister a recognition of his Government Tbr ascendency of Walker may, or may cot, be permanent. he any succeed in con- ■ aoiidating the sower ho has organiaed sau j finally transfer it to himself as the President of the new Republic, or he may fail and per haps perish before astroogar and mora de" j icrmined aspirant who has learnt bis Lsson in the same school of unlawful adventure . but the result cannot but iaapc: taiit as it concerns the future Me of Kiearajna *.. d ultimately ci' all Central Auisrics. It will jlsoe the destiny of that rcr'icu of the con tinent in Anpio-Aaierican bauds, before whose energy, self r?'lance aud progressive spirit, the igooranae, indolence and vioo of the efft to descendants of the old Spanish coocporors will disappear; introducing in the roosi cf their bigotry and cxelasmness iiberal and progressive institutions, anil gi'iDg to the revolutionary and convulsed country the peace that springs from well ssttkd, organia ia*fs and a contented and c-oaapied people. The Central American question would thus be settled on a basis perhaps not reogu:ied by the diplomacy that has heretofore held the matter in vexed t beyanoe, but sttil on one that would en force its own recognition and increase in soiiciti each dav of its continuance. L speaking thus lighl'y of Col. Walker's iic,tigs, and hopefully of the result of bis supremacy in Nicaragua, we must bo under itood as appearing neither as bis admirer o r apologist, lie is undoubtedly a mere nd \enturer, Instigated by restless ambition a iove cf notoriety and a desire to better his condition, without at y moral or conscientious convictions to interfere in the cbiice i f the n.ode of obtaining that object. These uo doubt are his characteristics, as well a* those ct his followers. Yet he may be one of those agents, unworthy and despicable iri themselves, that are sometimes used in the working out of results that have ihe most beneficial influence upon the future fortunes of a nation. It' such be the case with Walker lie will either prove himself capable of ri.-'.jig above his present sphere, or be will have to give place to others who may have tee virtue that he lacks. The recognition by the United States of the Government of Nicaragua established by Walker, is in accordance with the usual course pursued in such cases by thi* Govern ment, though Colonel Wheeler, our Minister, has chosen to give unu- u il t irnifi -cnco to the act by foinc inflated expressions ot interest in the new Republic, which a little moJera lir.u and geod sense would have shown him to Lavo bacn unnecessary if nut improper. The political sagacity of Walker in elevating T>on itiias, a promioer.t native Nicaragua!!, to the Presidency instead of seizing it him self, as he undoubtedly had :h- power t.; do, has smoothed the way towards obtaining ibis recognition, of his government, and will r*ro an effect in p-eventing foreign govern" ineote from adopting hostile measures to ward tie movement iri i*s incipient stages. They can fiatdlt refuse to recognize the governaicnt of Rivas, organized apparently by tic free will of the people cf ibe country. Whet thus recognized end strengthened and 4!ociida:ed, Walter will quickly SLS eumo toe rack as Ha ban already the p*er ct President, and will be prepared for the aejt move latuo venturesome game. * pon that mo*, n nay depend vry luaterially his foriunee and the present prospect for tho regent-ration cf Central America.

VENERABLE BRETHREN —HeaIth and Apostolic Blessing:—The letter subscribed by you all was delivered to us by our ven erable brother, Joliu Bishop of Buffalo, whom we received most kindly, and listen , ed to with pleasure speaking of your affairs, I Certainly it wa- no small joy to us to lear* | more and more from that venerable brot her ; as well from your letter, how great piety, : love and obedience you bear toward us and this chair of Peter the centre of Catholic truth and unity. Most gladly we learn with j what episcopal solicitude you provided for the celebratiou of the first provincial Svnod j of New York—whose acts according to , ancient rule, you have sent to us and asked that wo would vouchsafe to approve, or ! even, where need may be,correct. You will receive a fit answer from our j congregation for the propagation of the faith, to whoso attention we have referred the acts | of the Council, and in the letter of that i Council you will have a new proof of the affection which we entertain constantly to ! ward yon, venerable brethren, and your churches. But while, in the meantime, we ! announce to you that \our wishes Lave been gratified by us in the election of a new I Bishop of Portland, wc cannot but praise tho pastoral solicitude with which, accord ing to the sacred canons, you assembled, and invoking the light of the Holy Ghost, have striven by mutual advice to establish what may couduee to the dicipline of the clergy, to uK'rc and more cherishing the piety of the the faithful people to reeling out toe soedj, ■ of' vices, t> averting the dangers of se ; auction, and more correctly instructing the youth i the true faith and in solid i virtue. | 13 . t win.e we highly commend tins to ; your teal, to worthy of Cut hoi,, prelates . we encourage you anew that, leaning on the | Divine aid, you may proceed with yet grent ! or alacrity to fulfil aii the duties of your of i lice, never leaving anything untried by j which our most holy religion, and its Salu j tarv doctrin", may receive greater increase j in those regions, and that the unhappy wan j derers may return to the path of salvation. !
