sion, in that committee, for the minority of the ! Committee can occupy as much time as they please iti cross examinations of witnesses. The relations between the government cf Nica- j rftgua and that of Great Britain, are becoming more critical than I h:nl supposed when I wrote yesterday. I have since boon enabled to obtain a i copy of the existing treaty of 1810 between Great Britain and Nicaragua, and which precludes Nicaragua from attempting to extend her jurisdiction over San Juan del Norte or any part of the Mos- j quite territory. The treaty was made under these circumstances, ! to wit: Nicaragua had taken possession of San Juan, and a British force was landed there and the Nicaragueso were expelled, and their flag supplanted by that of Mosquito. The difficulty was Rettled by a treaty concluded at Cuba, an island in Lake Nicaragua, one of the articles of which stipulates that any attempt by Nicaragua to exercise sovereignty over any part of the Mosquito territory, or to retake possession of San Juan, should be construed as a declaration of war against Great Britain. I have also information from an authentic source that the commander of Her Britanic Majesty's flcot on the West India station has distinct orders to prevent Nicaragua, by force, if necessary, from taking possession of San Juan. It appears, pro- j name, that ifttie Nicaragua government attempt i to carry into effect their late decree the British consul at San Juan will enter a protest against it, and give notioe of the fact to the commanders of the British ships of war on that coast. A British war steamer is always in readiness at San Juan to carry orders or despatches to the British admiral. It is not improbable, therefore, Grey town will soon bo the scene of another bombardment.?Baltimore Sun. From the Columbia Times. The South Carolina College. The exercises of the South Carolina College will be resumed on Wednesday next, after a suspension of three weeks, which was made necessary by the excited state of feeling amongst the students, consequent, in part, of the late unfortunate and mnch to be regretted disturbance of the friendly relations heretofore subsisting between them and oar city authorities. The interregnum has, we trust, superinduced reflection and the "sober socond thought" of the young gentlemen of the College, and has allayed the high excitement which lately swayed their feelings, and warped, as we think, their judgments. If it shall produce this result, the vacation will not be devoid of profit. They will return, at the appointed time, forgetting the past as for as may be, once more address themselves to their accustomed exercises and duties with that assiduity which has heretofore marked their connection with the College. We hope that they will return: that not one will stay away. And whilst we would not hare them forget that high sense of honor which always marks the character of the gentleman; whilst we would not counsel them to cringe or meanly fawn to any tyrannous exercise of authority, we would Still have them yield a cheerful obedience to the officers of the College, and show them that respect which is their duo, in the full confidence that those officers will not exact anything which is not right and proper, and conductive to the best interests of the students, and the welfare of the institution they have in charge. They fill no sinecures, who occupy the Presidential and Professorial chairs in our beloved State College, if they fully and properly acquit themselves of their high charge. Their labors are arduous, their duties are many and manifold, and great are their responsibilities, to the College, to the students, and to the public, under the most favorable circumstances. It is manifest to every candid and right-thinking mind, that it is absolutely essential to the profitable and faithful discharge of those labors, duties and responsibilities, that law and authority, according to law, shall be supreme. If insubordination and misrule prevail, manifestly they but add to the mighty weight of responsibilities resting upon the President and Professors, and a connection with the College will prove utterly profitless to the students. IVe trust that these thoughts have obtruded themselves upon the minds of all the young gentlemen, during the three weeks of vacation, and that they will return to the College halls, resolved to a cheerful, fillial-like obedience to a mild, though firm, parental-like authority. In this connection it is proper that we should pen a word or two in defence of Mr. McCay, the able and worthy President of the College. lie has been assailed in various quarters, from within and from without the College. At his door have been laid all the late disturbances. To bis election to the Presidency has been ascribed the spirit of dissatisfaction and insubordination which lately prevailed among the students; and it is alleged that he is inefficient?unequal to the duties and responsibilities which have been laid upon him. These are very grave allegations, and, if they were true and just, the Trustees should at once remove him, how painful soever, the duty may be. But we would ask, are they true?are they just? But little more than two years have elapsed since Mr. McCay was invited by the Board of Trustees to occnpy the Professorship of Mathematics and Mechanical Philosophy. We say invited, for wc have been informed by a member of the Board, that Mr. McCay was put in nomination for the chair, without his knowledge or privity. The two years during which ho filled the Professorial chair?ably filled it, too, seemed to have sufficed, in the estimation of the Board of Trustees, to show forth bis qualities and qualifications to be the successor of Dr. Thornwell. He was elected President by a vote of two-thirds of the Trustees present over all competitors?a very handsome compliment, and one worthily bestowed, we are authorized to say by an acquaintance of former days with Mr. McCay, in the relation of teacher and puDil. It was an unsonght honor, too; for we have been informed by a member of the Board that, so far as his knowledge extended, Mr. McCay did not solicit the place of the Trustees. And we have been further iuformed that he hesitated about accepting it. Vet scarce two months have elapsed?before he has had time to vindicate the choice of the Trustees, or to show that they committed an error in electing him?the charge of efficiency is preferred against him. He has been condemned without a fair trial?without a fair opportunity of showing whether or no he can discharge the duties of President. Is this just? Does it comport with Carolina fairness and courtesy?? How, then, can the late insubordination be ascribed to his inefficiency ? How can he be charged with being the cause of the late disturbance? More than this: no sooner was Mr. McCay elected, than the newspapers in various quarters of the State condemned his election before he had got warm in his seat, or had an opportunity of showing his fitness or unfitness for the position.? It is said, too?wc know not whether the rumor be true or false?that there is disaffection towards him in the Faculty. What wonder, then, if the c+iwlanta Inanirwl unmA nf tha worn** cnivi* oml nv_ ?~r?~~ ? -f?> vhibited it ia acts of disobedience aud insubordination? But supposing Mr. McCay is not competent for the proper discharge of the responsible and laborious duties of the Presidency: who are the proper persons to be censured ? Manifestly the Board of Trustees who elected him without any solicitation on his part. Is he to be condemned, without a trial too, because he did not decline the proffered honor? Surely not. And who have had better opportunities of judging of his fitness than the Trustees ? With a full knowledge of his qualities and qualifications, with a full appreciation of their high responsibilities, conscious that the welfare of the College depended greatly upon their electing a proper man, and prompted solely by patriotic motives, and not by a spirit of favoritism, the Trustees elected Mr. McCay, and their election is the very highest evidence of his fitness, uutil the contrary shall appear after a fair and impartial trial. Give him at least a fair trial, and we warrant that he will triumphantly vindicate the choice of the Trustees. But, if any error has been committed, it has been committed by the Board of Trustees. They arc the proper persons to be censured, if indeed some one must be censured. Commercial Department. Yorkville Markets.

Cotton.?When wo closed our last weekly report of the cotton market, we stated that the news by the America had come to hand, but they had produced no quotable effect on prices, aud also that the market was quiet but steady. Iu reviewing the week just brought to a close we have but few remarks to make on the state of the market. The 1 week opened with a quiet but firm demand, at for mer quotations. On Wednesday morning three j days' later advices from liverpool by the Baltic i came to hand, reporting the cotton market firm at previous rates, with sales of 2G,000 bales during the three previous days.

A rare opportunity is now presented /X/\ for the fanners and all admirers of good horses, in this section of the country, to improve their Stock. RIO-GRANDE is one of the finest and purest blooded horses in the world, as will he seen by reference to the English and American records of his pedigree. He is directly descended from the very purest and best stock in England and America, as the following pedigree will show: RIO-GRANDE is by Billy Harris, out of Lady Morgan. Billy Harris was by Monsieur Tonson, he by Pacolet, dam by Madam Tonson, by El liott's Top Gallant: grand dam hy liarrcy'a lueu- ; ley; Top Gallant by Gallatin; Barrey's Medley by Medley. Lady Morgan, the dam of Rio-Grande, was by John Richards; her dam by imported Expedition; her grand dam by Bcla Badger's Sir Solomon; great grand dam Aurora, by imported Honest John; great great grand dam Zelippa, by imported Messenger; g. g. g. grand dam Dido, by imported Bay Richmond; g. g. g. g. grand dam Stamerkin, by irhported Wildair; g. g. g. g. g. grand dam by imported Club. Ariel, the (lam of Billy Harris, was by American Eclipse; her dam by Financier; grand dam by Empress, by imported Baronet; great grand dam by imported Messenger: her dam by Snap, out of Jenny Duter, by ' True Britton: her dam Quaker Lass, by imported Juniper, out of the imported Molly Pacolct by im- i ported Pacolet; Molly Pacolet's dam by imported Spark, out of Queen Mab. American Eclipse was byDuroc; his dam the famous race mare Miller's Damsel, by imported Messenger, out of the imported Pot-8-oooooooo's mare; her dam by JimCrack. Duroc was by imported Diometle, out of Mr. Mosby's "extraordinary race marc Amanda," by Col. Taylor's famous Gray Diomcde, son of imported Medley. It is deemed unnecessary to extend back any farther the pedigree of Rio-Grande, although it can be fully traced in the English Records back to a very long period of time. RIO-GRANDE is unquestionably one among the finest of horses in the whole Southern country.? His stock arc of fine size, remarkably well formed, durable, and easily managed. Testimonials from the very best raisers of Stock in South Carolina, fully sustain all and more than is here stated con corning Rio-Grande. He is undoubtedly an extra fine horse in every respect. There is not a single drop of coarse or impure blood in his veins. RIO-GRANDE Will stand the present season, as follows : In the town of Charlotte, the first three days (Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday) of each week: on Thursday at Morrow's Turn-Out, ten miles below Charlotte, on the South-Carolina rail-road; and on Fridays and Saturdays nt the subscriber's residence, in the Providence neighborhood, in Mecklenburg county, on terms which it is believed will suit every body, viz: Twenty-five dollars the season, or one hundred dollars for five marcs?one responsible man becoming paymaster for tlip Company. The season will commence on Monday the 10th of March, in Charlotte, and continue the usual time. JAMES II. DAVIS, march 10 11 3t South Carolina?York District, WHEREAS IIUGII C.

The spectator is printed in the Quarto form, on a double royal sheot of superior paper; and is devoted to belles lettres, and scientific and miscellaneous intelligence. The aim of the publisher is to make it a welcome visitor to ever household, where sound knowledge aud correct moral sentiment can be appreciated.? With this view he escbows all the senseless twaddle, under the name of literature, which serves only to beguile idle moments; and strives to confine the matter of the SPECTATOR, to tbatwhich will leave useful impressions on the minds of its readers. Besides a large weekly amount of matter ap| propriate to papers purely literary the SPECTATOR contains summaries of government doings in Congress and the Executive Departments; the important news of the day, foreign and domestic; reviews of finance and markets; notices of new books, new discoveries iu art and science; new inventions, including a weekly list of patents issued from the Patent Office; articles on education; on agriculture, business nnd domestic economy; and candid essays upon the leading topics of the day. Though entertaining for themselves decided view3 on questions of political economy nnd roligious belief, the editors do not purpose to give to the paper a partizan or a sectarian character ? The discussion of these subjects they leave for pa pers csiauusucu ior sucu purpose. At me same time they reserve to themselvc the right to expose hypocrisy, ami to oppose bigotry and fanaticism in all forms; and of offering, when they deem occasion to require it, their opinions and reasons therefor on seperate questions involving the interests and vested rights of the people among whom we arc located, without thereby subjecting themselves to a charge of violating any pledge. One of the editors (Mr. Hayne,) will remain for the present, and probable spend most of hiB time, at his residence in Charleston S. C., an arrangement wo think, better enabling him to furnish matter of local interest to that section of tho Union, and affording some convenience to our friends and those whom we hopo to have for patrons, in that vicinity. THE SPECTATOR is published every Saturday, and furnished to subscribers by mail at the following rates?payable in advance. One copy one year $ 2 00 Three copies 6 00 Ten copies one year 15 00 Bank notes of the denomination of $5 or upward, and current in any part of the United States received in payment.

There will be a Public Examination at the close of each term. The experience of Mr*.PANKEY, as a Teacher, especially in preparing Students for College, is too well known in the vicinity^of his former teaching, to need comment. To others who may feel a personal interest, we can only say, Tiaving fully satisfied ourselves that he porsesscs all the requisites of a good, nble and efficient teacher; , and deeply impressed with the ruinous effects of a frequent change of teachers, we have secured bfii services for the next five years. We therefore, take pleasure in presenting him to the public, be- *? Moving it wiil he the interest of those who have to boafrl, to send their sons and wards here. We cannot refrain from adding, that this will not be a school suited to indolent Students, as good order and progress will be rigorously required. This Institution is situated in one of the hcalthiest portions of the State, citrhfc miles South-East of Yorkvillc, in a retired part of the District, w mote from any temptations of dissipation &c.; in an intelligent neighborhood, and one remarkable ^ for the good morals of its citizens. - .
