A few days ago Mr. Hartlio Icnu.w, formerly of New York, but more recently the proprietor of the foundry and machine shop at B-inba, in this island, left Matanzas with a friend on a visit to th ? country. They were stopped on the r< ad and robbed of their mo.iry , watches and rings. The weather boin,' rather warm, tlie robbers preseuted each of their victim with uj esfta (twenty cents) to procure refreshment.

I nni able to assure you tliat the rejiort that tin' govern ment bud engaged, iu the term , of the late Convention with Nlcair ua, to selxe General Walker wherever lie can l?e found and bring bun back U) the United States un founded- It is, however, sufficiently contradicted by Its own nbsurdity. The government, however, will do all it legitimately can to defeat, the enterprise of Wulkor, and put a bole in his drum; and although it cannot presume to protuct Nicaragua, it can legitimately protect the Transit by United States troops, which it ha* engaged to do, in tlie event of whirh Walker and his party will bo cut off from i enforcements aud completely balked. I under stand that the government will at once proceed to occupy the line of the Transit with it* troops. By the way of California we have some interesting in telligence of the mover "lits of the Mormons, which seem to imply an extensive and i>oworftil alliance in their treasonable war on the government with tha Indian'-, who are fully ready to take the field against the United States troops. All circumstar.ees seem to?omblne iu surrounding the Utah expedition with dilemmas, and placing it in a desperate light. Even iu the event of seve ral thousand troop.-- reaching the valley of the Salt I,ake the besieged might take lo the mountains, whore they would be reinforced by their savage allies ? whom, it is said, they can furnish with arms and horses la an emer gency ? and adopt a harassing mode of warfare, and an ef- i foctive one in cutting otf all supplies. . Anything like a desultory war on our part with the : Mormons would be very deplorable in its moral effect, iu ] bringing the republic into disrepute in the eyes of the : world, and in the couutenance it would five to the charge that our government has never been abb' to crush out, by j a signal and exemplary stroke, rebellion in Its Territories. What a reflection on the republic already is conveyed in j the insulting and contemptuous oiler of Unghaui Voting to { f pare the troops of the government if they would give up their arms and ammunition to aim! Suchadeniand.it j might be supposed, might have provoked a Spartan re ply; but, on the contrary , instead of Brigham being told j to "come and take them," it seems lo have formed the subject of an absurdly serious correspondence, with all he usual tedium and nourished in which Col. Alexander, of the loth United States infantry, commanding, tells Itrigham that " he has the In. nor t. acknowledge his com munication," &c., &c., and that t'n letter conveying the insulting proposition lie "will sutu ?it to the General com manding as soon as he arrives," &c. . kc. Mr. Stevens, the delegate from Washington Territory, hap arrived here, :aid I understand that he will represent the interests of his constituents in urging u|K>u Congress to pay the war debt of Washington and (iregon Territories This debt furnishes a snug little item, its amount in the aggregate being about seven millions of dollars. The matter was let t in statu quo. ou account of the action of Congress upon the report of the commission sent out to the Pacific to audit these war claim* ; and the whole investi gation will have, as I understand, to bo re commenced, and is now to some extent being so through a special ageut ot the government. The revised code for the district, prepared by a commis sion appointed by Congress, who are reported to havo expended great labor and study upon it aud to havo made nn entire repeal of all British and Maryland statutes, is at lust rciJy fer distribution. The vote of the people will be taken upon it at once. It is still doubtful whether the new hall for the popular branch el Congress will be completed in season, as was expected, for the next Congress, notwithstanding a large additional force has been put on. The arrangement of the heating apparatus is very complicated and Involves great labor, and it is no? progressing very slowly. Tlie repre seutatives will no doubt elect to oci py their old hall this winter. Tlie ga.s arrangements for lighting the new hall will be particularly striking in effect. Kach pane of Rtain ed glass in the ceiling will he surrounded with a row of gas burners, and when lighted will exhibit with beautiful distinctness the arms of the several states of the Union depicted on the glass.

Military (tecupation of the Transit Jtou !? t-y the Vtiilrd Staff* und Re -opening oftht' KouU. The treaty just negotiated between Gen. Cus and Mr. Yrissarri, in relation to matters pending between the Unitod State- and Nicaragua, mid which also affect our relation.' with the other Central American Slates and also the ltritish government, is one of deep interest The great point at i-;suo, and which, it is hoped, is now to be fettled, is in regard to the Nicaragua Transit and its free enjoyment by citizens of the IV, ted States. It is im ]>ortiintto this country that the Transit should be con trolled by Nicaragua, inasmuch as it will be more conve nient ft>r this government to treat w.Ji one State in regard to It than two or more States , and look to one rather than several for its protection. Tlie disputes among these I*"tty Statei might at any time endanger its security and expose it to interruption and occlusion as at present. Besides, the United States government has every reason to protect Nicaragua in il. possession of her territorial rights and integrity, as against the pretensions of Cost* Hica. which are founded upon pretended rights of con que t in the late eonv ulsious. It is understood that the President has wisely deter mined to op< n the Hau Juan river, which Is now block ided by Costa ltiea Co ta Kica will assent, no doubt. to the occupation of the line of the Transit by Inlted Slates troo|*; but if she does not. there ?ill be the greater necessity for holding it in possession during the inability of Nicaragua to protect it.

Tlie war ujiou the Treasury, boiiio particular* us ta which I communicated to you a week ugo, is prosecuted with great success. It appears that Mr. J. Boss Browne, the agent of the War Departmont, haa visited Oregon ana Washington Territories with a view to examine into the 1 amount of debt due there on account of the lat" Indian 1 war and Indian depredations, ic. , and he makes it out ; that about flvo million are justly due. in tho* | Territories, and must be paid. That his report, : though it is said to bo voluminous, does not ' embrace all the claims Is quite certain, for he did iiot ! visit but a portion of these extensive Territories, and ! could not know the amount of all the private demands I that are yet to be made, lie COBceeds fivo millions aw tlve ' amount ?!ne; and according to the information which I I have received, the amount will be six millions from | Oregon, ami olio million six hundred thousand from WasU j inpton. These profitable wars must be the chief business of those parts of the country, and, if we may judge of tho ' economical habits of the Oregouians by the frugal salarioa i whioh tlicy allow to tlieir civil and judicial officers, under j the new Stato constitution ? i. t. , seventeen thousand dot | lirs a year for the whole civil list ? the sum of six mil lions will enrich them. Such a fruitful source of revenue ! is not to bo neglected nor suppressed, and, therefor", H is i not with surprise that we lo.irn that the ladiaik. are ug.uu I goaded into a profitable degree of hostility. Tlie Utah war, n(*w commenced, is witii the allied forcoa J of Mormons and Indians, and will be a heavy burden upon | the Treasury. The revenue, although it is improving and will be ad(<<|uate to ordinary expenditures, wlfi be wholly ] unequal to the additional w ar expenses of the next Uscdl year.

Members of the next Congress continue to arrive, raid 1 among the new comers 1 notice the lion. Thomas L. Cling ; man, of the " Buncombe" district, North Carolina, on*> of the oldest members of the House, although not very far advanced on life's journey. He is a modium sized, plea sant gentleman, noted among the ladies as a gallant bache lor, and distinguished among the savan- as a mineralogist. It wns in pursuit of his favorite science that Mr. Chapman first discovered the highest peak of Black Mountain, in North Carolina, which baa since borne his name. The friends of the late Professor Mitchell have attempted to claim the honor for " Mou.ii Mitchell," but "ChnKnun's Peak" is undoubtedly tho mo t elevated point of land in North America east "of the Rocky Mountains. Mr. Cling man was formerly a whig, but now supiR>rts tho admiui M ration of President Buchanan. Bird B. Chapman, the delegate in tho last Congrww from Nebraska Territory, intends to content the seat in the coming Congress with Judge Ferguson. Tlie latter is now in rut Uer an unpleasant position here, a protest having been placed on file in tho Interior Department against issuiLg him n patent for a quarter sec tion of land, which he claims under tho pre-emption act. He, in reply, a-serts that he has owned, occupied and raised crops on the farm which he pre-empted. Senator Gwin has taken the house occupied during tho last session by Governor Aiken, his old residence having been sold to Mr. Todd, the hatter. Hon Horace K. Clark, of New York, has taken the house of the laic Major Ijnd eay. of tho Marine corps. The house near tho H"ck creek bridge, so long occupied by the late (Jeneral Thompson, has been rebuilt and enlarged by John E. Beeside, a son of James Keeside, the "Uind Admiral," whose mail coaches furnished tho only means of conveyance between this city and New York thirty yeafr ago. The list Congress paid a longstanding claim of Mr Reeside's against government, whict amounted, with interest, to f360,o00. Of this a "lion'i shore" wu.i absorbed by interested claim agents. , A magnificent block of three double houses has beot erected twfelg the pat summer near the well known villi of .Senator DMflan Tliey MoM to Vice President Br<-ck ?nridge.
