GEN WALKER AND NICARAGUA
Gen. Walker has written a letter, to the
Secretary of State, protesting against what
he denominates the assumption of Costii
Rica and Guatemala in asking for the as
tire interposition of the United States for
the purpose of preventing his ( Walker'-
return to Nicaragua. He says that the
people of Nicaragua have not ooo seated t

THE QUAKERS OT K. CAROLEWA.
We learn from ths aass fcoro Times that
tin- Society of "Friends or Quakers of this
Stat.- recently held their yearly meeting at
New Garden in Guilford county. Prom an
article in the Times on the Rules and Doc
trines of this Society of Christians, we take
the following:
"Owing to the afrrll war and persecution
in the first days of the Society, great care
was taken of the poor and destitute; aud
this has ever been kept up, no one of them
ever being thrown upon the public for sup
port. They also make special provision for
the education of all poor children, by pro
viding good seminaries of learning, taught

native town of Bluis, obtained a medal at

the muicipal affairs of the government. So
far as any violation on his part of the acts
of Congress is concerned, he denies the
charge with scorn and indignation, and will
so far forget his duty as nn othcer of
as their Literary instruction, may oe aiienu
ed to. and to which the children of all their
meaihers may have free access.
In reference to Marriage, the Society be
ReVa feat It is a divine ordinance, and that
none bat the Lord alone can rightly join
any iu this solemn covenant. It has there
fore always had a conscientious scruple
against acknowledging tho authority of
priests, ministers, or magistrates, in the
solemnization of marriage. Those intend
ing to marry, appear before a monthly meet
ing, with their parents or a certificate of
OOltseut, A committee is then appointed
to examine into the matter and report at the
next meeting. If no objection is reported,
the parties have the consent of the meeting
to aceoinpli.-h the marriage. This is done
iu a public meeting for worship where the
parties stand up and solemnly take each
other f.r husband aud wife.
Burials are conducted in a simple and
unostentatious manner. To avoid unne
cessary expense, which might be oppressive
to the poor, they wear no mourning appar
el their cotiins are plain they discourage
loug processions of carriages and the erec
tion of tomb stones.
In refeu iicc to war. the society believes
it is wholly at variance with the spirit of
tho Gospel, whii:h continually breathes
pence on earth and good-will to men. They
receive in their full signification, the plain
and positive command of Christ: "I say
unto jciii that ye resist not evil," "Jove
your enemies : bless them that curse von.

AH REST OF WALKER.
New OuAUn, Nov. 11. Gen. Walker
was arrested to-day, just previous to his
departure for Nicaragua, whither he was

have just been published. Its object was
to destroy the influence exercised among
the Arab tribes by the maraouts an in

few cknnjcy tricks and imi-ostuves these
marabouts pass themselves off as i-urcercrs;

able to eclipse their skill and discredit

and the trigger pulled, he pronounced a
