THSDTDUHBACE.

O* our first page may be seen a report of_ a aeating of a Convention on Indian affairs, held in the city of Providence, Rhode Island. Tbw eoBmunication is from iho sorroaponding agent of the movement in Uei state. The object of the movement is to devise measures for the amelioration of the eoodtUaa uf tfao Indian racer *

carried out. The subject in eliciting oooddsnblo attention in that Utils state ; and claims the ooaaide ration of men of distine-

I*, as will be seen by the a Chairman ef the Conven-

Jlierc is no donbt that this matter has been treated with too much indifiereneo. W. era*, indeed, to look spoo the Indian raoeaa If doomed to extermination, and eonscqenlly not worth aoUce. That the nee has, from a data to ns unknown, been rastiag under the ditplasnre of Heaven, and that the sufferings inflicted npon them has been allowed, by the wise Holer of nations, as a jest retribution lor sins dating far aatarior to our historical knowledge of thorn, me do not question ; bet that ibis state of things is always to remain, we do r N«rdoes this prove that the S of this suffering ero justifiable is He infliction. A wise and just Qod will always “make the wrath of mao lo prahe Him smd yet that wrath, on th» partof tfaa men who Inflict in. is tcra/k Mtt, aad procaafls from wicked passions in tfet hnman breast. Men lave t! e<e wicked paseioes; and InfiaiU wisdom has seen fit to ka*e them, as fne agents, to rent It ont to a certain extent, so far as He ireafit, u» answer his purposes of retribution ',nd moral government; bnt “the ramaindot of wrath he will restrain.” What we have said'in reference to vhe Indian race, will hold good in referenco to oer own, or any other race. No one who roads the written history of tbo world, or the stiU clearer history of souse notions, as it is now transpiring, cao tail lo discovur the troth of this. To-day one nation may bo the oppressed, soflering the rewards of their wiejeedanss, and another the oppressor, crushing the oppressed j but .to-morrow lie who holds the nations of the earth in his 1st;may see fit to put his Almighty hand to the great universal wheel, and the Bast half century may reverse tho order, aai hw who is aaw the oppressor, may become the oppressed. This may become tree In regard to onr own and tho Indian races. That this may not bo tbe ease, moy kind ifearen move npon the hearts of oor people, to duly consider, and alleviate, tho sufferipgs of the downtrodden, than raising their condition, without sinking oor own. But wu ara grossing psolix, and will leave tbe subject, after noticing one item in the report referred to. In speaking of tbe remarks of Bishop Clarks, the writer attribatesto him the following words, or sentiment, at least: “Their religion was pu/e and simple in its manifestation” Ac., and o little farther on we read “One peculiarity of it was, that it conveyed no idea of an expiatory sacrifice, every man most bear tho burden of his own sins." These we ara told, ware traits in Iks religion of the. Indian. That tbsir religion was simple we do not doubt; bnt as to the purity in its manifestation, we thiak the expression neede some qualificatioa. We do not suppose, bowerur, that Bishop Clarke would undertake to ascribe unqualified pwrflp to H, especially as it '‘convoyed no idea of an- expiatory Ileo;" U no we do not rightly oodern of theology of the church * la^sBcial member. Nor do wa ha ppose thut onr oorresi theological purity; h»Jy take issue with

concerned to a matter in which we, with many others, are considerably interested. We refer to our means - of conveyance between tbi: place and Philadelphia, especia’iy daring the sutomn, winter and spring. In the summer we have the steamers, which afford daily accomodations; but daring the greater part of the year it is otherwise. The New York steamers, it is tnte, pass here three or four times a w6ek each way, bat then, a part of the time* there is no certainty of getting on board, or being landed from them. We have, also, vessel? running a part of the time, but in these there Is no certainty. Then

Mr. Lcacn :—Dear Sir:—I resume my unfinished subject on the Wars of '.he notorious Walker. The trip upon the Pacific was quite a pleasant one. On :hu morning of the 4th of May 1855, they arrived at San Juan Del Sur ; where Castillion received thorn with great pomp. Tbe news of this

new expedition coming, reached the ears of

Chamorra, nnd the undaunted Americans had not trod tho soil of Nicaragua many hours, when the Serviles made their appeard created a fight. Walker stood

their own groor.d. . Schlessinger, was camp ; ing one night, and thought little of having i guards on watch, in case of any party rash- j ing on them. Indecdit was an oversight 1 of his. About midnight three thousand Costa Ricans opened upon them with dead- 1 ly fire. When tlie morning dawnou. twothirds of Col. Schlessinger's companions, were weltering in their gOrc. The remain- j ing number fled, and after a wear, travel reached head quarters, and reported Scl.lcssengcr’s treacherous act. A tribunal was held, and sentence of death passed upon the traitor, if be was found in Nicaragua. . The Costa Ricans were, during this time, marching towards tho city where Walker ! was staiioocd. Tho General heard of lli- ir , approach and went out loo meet them with 800 men. At Rivas bo found them posted, throe ihour-and strong, well armed. They 1 looked for another easy victory, but they were grossly deceived. Tho battle com- ; menced. Streets were fought through, and ! Walker's first officers fell; but minor one's look their places, and on they fought; each 1 r.llo was aimed, and almost ever ball sunt seme poor soul reeling into tho presence of the Omnipotent Judge. At last lue CoMa Ricuus grew dismayed and retreated in the wildest confusion. This eventfridiiy severed 85 men from the ranks of Walker; while the enemy lost 800 or 900. The dead were left in tho streets, and as the bo , dies mortified, a disease broke out among the inhabitants, raushig the death of an innumerable mass. Walker left tho scene, shouting for joy, and retreacod Ins steps to

but thee were sadly mistaken.

Don Francisco Castillion give Walker the command oyer the Liberals: seeing him to bo well versed In every military tactic. Koch was the case ; although I wish it had not been so ; os be was greatly encouraged to pursue bis wicked purposes, by

this single act of Castillion.

From Joan Del Sur, Walker went to Virgin Bay, and there fought kis second battlo; which proved victorious on his part. He marched into tb» interior, and fight succeeded fight. Tbe number of the Liberals increased and they flocked round!

The remark has often been made to me, • utside of Philadelphia, that ' '.here i« not a* much excitement created this Fall, in politics, as in conimon,” and it has greatly amused me to hear it. 1 have Invl the pleasure of being so situated, that the news of I be day came under my observation, and
