GREAT BRITAIN AND NICARAGUA.

"New York, April 26 The British warships are lying within a mile and a half of the Custom house in Gorinto, and their guns cover 4 the city, which is undefended. The Nicaraguan Government has issued orders not to permit the landing of the British soldiery, and 3000 troops are being massed in Corinto to give effect to them. April 27. Martial law is proclaimed in Nica ragna, and the telegraph wires are being cut. April 28, Four hundred marines from the British warship Royal Arthur, with two machine guns, were landed in, twenty-two boats, and have occupied Corinto. The troops seized the Customs house and other public buildings, over which the British flag was then hoisted. The local garrison withdrew on the approach of the British, and crossed a lagoon separating the town from the mainland. They are now in a strongly entrenched position. The warships are ready to bombard if the entrenched troops interfere with the marines. Most of the residents of Oorinto have retired to San Juan. The Nicaraguan public has sub scribed J620.000 to meet the indemnity demanded by the British Government. President Cleveland, speaking in connection with the trouble, said it was necessary to maintain the inde pendence of the South American State against armed Europeans, and he would resist by armed force any attempt of a European Power to establish itself on the American Continent., However, in the case of the trouble with Nicaragua, he thought the circumstances did not warrant intervention by the United States. London, April 28 The Mcaraguaus are closing the port of Corinto to prevent the British collecting the. Customs duties. This action causes some anxiety in the United States lest the British should retaliate by seizing St. Juan, which is one of the termine of the proposed canal.

/ PUBLIC NOTICES. >. . , IMPORTANT TO F4RMERS. D. CLARKE'S CARBOLIZED Wheat Protector HAS BEEN USED FIFTY YEARS WITH UNDEVIATING SUCCESS. IT has been amply proved by the Testi monials of thousands of the First Practical Agriculturists In England, as ▼ell as by dozens of farmers in the Ash burton District, that this preparation materially assists the germination of the se9d, cawing the young plant to come up much fooner, and crow more vigorously, protects it to maturity from tbe ravages of the Slug, Grub, and Wirewokm, adds firmness to the straw to support the ear. Seed dressed with this preparation may remain for any length of time without sustaining injury, and invariably PRODUCES WHEAT PERFECTLY FREE FROM SMUT, And of greater value than that grown from seed dressed with other preparation!.
