Yesterday afternoon / as policemen Bowen and Picket were walking their beat a number of women informed them of the arrival of u colored man with a white woman as a wife, near the wharf. The officers repaired to the place designated ami arrested the par ties. They give their names as Mr. and Mrs. James Carter, from Montgomery, Ala., where they were in Jail, but being out on bond they came to this point to avoid the law. They are now quietly resting in separate cells of our guard house. She is a white woman of about thirty-five years and seems to he con tented with her dusky mate, with whom she has lived six years. He is undoubtedly a full-blooded ne gro and as insolent a scoundrel as we have ever seen. This morning they will probably be brought before the Mayor, who will hind them over until the Grand Jury can find a true bill, or the ma.v probably be turned over to the Montgomery authorities. Runaway* Yesterday Broad st-cot was tlio scene nf some little excitement, occasioned by a runaway. \ lumber wagon, to which a pair of horses were attached, wax standing at tho Columbus Iron Works, when tho animals became frightened and ran up the hill to Broad street, then up it at a “break-neck” speed. Crowds ran out at the Sans Soilci to head them, which turned their course diagonally across tho street. Tho wagon struck a tree box, demol ishing it, and then to W. I,. Tillman A Co.’a, where the tongue struck a post, which stoppoil them. The hacks gave the way with promptness. A broken tongue and some littlo excitement was the result of tlioir caper.

This troupe played last night to a small house and tho reason was they didn’t use onougli printers' ink, beside tlioir business manager managed badly at this point. Tho entertainment was really fresh and unique. The Combination is verily a combination of specialties, better than which none linvc evor appeared in minstrelsy in Columbus. The olio was like that of all companies of the some character. Our advice to everybody, who may lisvo the opportunity, is to < see this entertainment and wo advise them to alway advertise liberally if they would draw n /inline. Printers’ ink never fails.

Condensed from the Journal. tmaix s 1.0x0 r.tar. He Abstain, from Nourishment for Mix Days. George Francis Train was found ill bed nt 5} o’clock last evening, in a small $3 room of the Phuenix House, New York, up under the roof, where the air is pure. He puyH $2 a week only, because lie took the room last May, when the house was being re fitted, Aind submitted to u good many consequent Inconveniences. The waiter that conducted the visitor to the room looked bright. He carried in his hand a pitcher of water. It was the first drinking water that Mr. Train had ordered for six days. By the side of the single bed were an apple and a biscuit. During two houm of conversation, Mr. Train used the apple once to Illustrate the posi tion of the world as he stood above it on a mountain ; but lie did not toucli the biscuit nortnkea sip of the water. Yesterday morning at 8 o’clock, he said, had completed u period of six days since he had token food or drink. Dr. White had called on him and urged him to eat. The doctor was of opinion that he was troubled with gastric fever. His tongue was very much coated. Mr. Train’s family went to him and urged him to eat something. This was too much. He could not resist tlioir appeal, or rather when it was made he felt no inclination to resist it. Psychology would explain that, too. So yesterday morning his fami ly had some oatmeal and water pre pared for him, and lie eat about as much as he could have held in one hand. On his way to the house he had slopped at a pump, and was able to drink a little water. At noon he had eaten half a biscuit. That was all lie had eaten in six and a half days. Tlte biscuit on the table was for his supper, but he did not care to eat it. He had felt a slight desire for water, and so had ordered some. It was his usual bedtime. He usually remained in bed fourteen hours. During the six days of fasting lie had lost about ten pounds in weight. His eyes, he said, had lost their peculiar lustre, and his knee joints had become weak, but after eating the handful of oat meal, eyes and knees ulike had been restored to their normal state. It was not the nutriment contained in the oatmeal that had caused this, but the mechanical action of the stomach, which had ceased for want of food, was again set going, and jxo disense was averted.

The stock Is very heavy, showing u disposition to hold. Y\ bother this be wise or not Is a serious question. The position of cotton appears strong and would be more were it not for the European warlike and political compl lent ions,and tho Northern belief which has effected foreign markets that the crop will be large. In this last we believe they will be badly mistaken. On the week prices have slightly advanced in Liverpool and New York. Here they have remained firm. The weather of4he week has been cold and uncomfortable. The staple is not coming in near so rapidly ns last year.

Indeed, it is no ordinary discovery in medical science to have invented a remedy for these stubborn complaints, which de velop all the results produced by a heretofore free use of calomel, a min eral justly dreaded by mankind, and acknowledged to be destructive in the extreme to tho human system. That the properties of certrin vegetables comprise all tho virtues of calomel without its injurious tendencies, is now an admitted fact, rendered indisputa ble by scientific researches; and those who use the Mandrake Pills will be fully satisfied that the best medicines are those provided by nature in tho common-herbs and roots of the fields. These Pills open tho bowels and cor rect all bilious derangements without salivation or any of the injurious effects of calomel or other poisons. The secretion of bile is promoted by those Pills, as will be seen by the altered color of the stools, and disappearing of the sallow complexion and cleansing of the tongue.
