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- ■

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.

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.
! But spare never, venerable brethren, any
| cafes, any councils, any labors, (bat, while
j thorc u:o any uDblevers to be found in your
! diocuscs, sitting iu darkness aDd the shadow
1 of death, you may be able to enlighten them
| with the light of the gospel, and to gain
! them to Christ.
but that you may provide more easily for ■
the want 3 of your dioceses, and may be |
made to have skilful arid industrious labor- j
ers who ran help you in cultivating the. i
vireyaad of tLe Lord, wc must earnestly ,
wish, as we already have intimated to KC.U.I ;
of your order {who to our no common grat- |
ifieatlon where here in Rome on the occasion
of our dogma tic definition of the Immaculate
Conception of the Mother of God.) that
comparing your advice and uniting* your '
resources yon would please to errcet in this
our fair ci'y of Rome a college appropriated
to the clergy cf yoer nation, for your wis- j
dom will instruct you how great advantages i
may redound to your dioceses lrom an in
stitution of that kind.
because by this arrangement, yout'u cho
sen bv ou and aeut hither as the hope of;
religion, will grow up as in a nursery, and
imbued here with piety and with an excel- !
lent education, and drawing from its very
fountain a doctrine incorrupt, and burning
the institutes and the rites and holy eercmi
riies in the method of the church which i
the mother and mistress of nil others, whan
they return to their country will be able to 1
discharge the office of a parish priest, or of
a teacher, or of a professor, and to shine as
an example of life to the people, to instruct
tho ignorant, and to bring back the erring
to the pathes of truth and justice, as well
as 1 v the armor of sound doctrine, to con
found the madness and refute the fallucie?
of men of guile. If you will ratify this
our desire, which looks only to the spiritual
good of these regions, we coi tainly, as much
as lies in us, will not omit toa3?ist yoawitb
all diligence, that you may establish ibe
said college.
Finally, we would assure you that we
offer earnest prayers to the Most Gracious
Father of Mercies, that r.c may pour out
always upon you favorably the richest gifts
of his goodness, that these a.so may de
scend copiously upon the beloved flocks com
mitted to your chrage. And as the pledge
of these, and as a witness of our most
