Probably the First of ft Berios.
Jones & Ferguson, extensive produce and
commission merchants in New 1 ork, have sus
pended payments and will go into liquidation.
Their liabilities are said to amount to $280,-
000. The rapid decline in breadstuff* is as
signed as the cause of their failure. It is very
probable that the same cause will terminate in
the bankruptcy of many mercantile establish
ment)) throughout the country, as their exten
sive operations have for some time kept grain
and other produce above the prices which the
natural demand on the one side and a very
heavy crop ou tlie other would have establish
ed, without this fictitious stimulus.

The Nicaraguan Question.
We observe that some newspapers consider
the dispute between the United States and
(ireat Britain about the construction of the
Clayton-Ihilwor Treaty as virtually settled by
the proceedings of (Jen. Walker. I lie .Augus
ta (Jhroiiiole says that “Mughiud, through Jiti
minister, has said that she stands to her intei
pretation of the treaty solely ou principle. ■
While (leu. Walker holds the country, wo have i
only a principle on our side, both countries, i
then, limy preserve the principle and the peace
at the same time. Indeed, now that some
thousand hardy emigrants of the Anglo -Saxon
race have landed in Central America, the Mos
• juito King is deposed and there is 011 c hum
bug the less in the world.” This is reasoning
upon the premise that (Ireat Jlritain will not
interfere with Walker in his attempt to wrest
tireytown from the Mosquito King, and that
our (lovornment will therefore have no right to
resist her intermeddling there. Hut both her
engagements with her sable ally and the pre
parations she seems to he making indicate that
(ireat Britain will intorfere. Does our ootcin
porary insist that in this contingency the (jov
ernment of the United States must abandon its
construction of the Treaty and the Monroe
doctrine, because Walker is the power against
whom England will be warring? It seems to
us that the “principle” involved remains the
same, let whoever may rule in Nicaragua ;
and we are not exactly prepared to admit that
our (lovornment is the less bound to stand up
to its rights and its proclaimed principle in
reference to that part of the world, because
Nicaragua is now ruled by adventurers lately
our own countrymen, than it would be to
maintain its construction of the Treaty and
(lie Monroe dogma if half-civilized natives still
hold feeble sway in Nicaragua.
AVe cannot but regard the proceedings of the
Walker Government as increasing the proba
bility of a conflict between the United States
and Great Britain, and as tending to precipi
tate action in reference to a controversy that
might otherwise linger in tho dilatory meshes
of diplomacy until the progress of the age or
some fortuitous event mightscttle thoquestion
to the satisfaction of all concerned.
Hater from Central America.
The steamship Empire City, from Panama,
which arrived at New Orleans on the l ltli
inst., brings late and highly important intelli
gence from Central America. The States of
Central America were uniting to expel AValker
from Nicaragua, and five thousand men were
on tho march from Honduras to make war up
on him. It is stated that the States of Guate
mala, San Salvador, Honduras, and the rebel
lious portion of Nicaragua have entered into a
treaty offensive and defensive against tho Gov
ernment of Walker and llivas, and would
jointly make war against it. To oppose this
formidable combination, Walker has a force of
1200 North Americans, and a considerable
number of native troops, lie presses into his
service all persons who visit Grenada without
special permits to return, and he drills and
keeps his forces together by the strictest dis
cipline and vigilance, t’ol. Kinney and Mr.
Martin had again started for Grenada to see
Walker and try to effect some understanding
with him.
The following significant item, brought by
this arrival, points to tho agency of “the Al
lies” in these warlike proceedings :
“The French frigate l’Ambuscade had
reached I'unta Arenas, with strict urders to
put down any filibuster expedition she might
fall in with on the high seas.”
Four hundred emigrants from (his country
‘ii route to join AValker, and sixty for Kinney's
colony, had arrived at (ireytown.
There is nothing of interest from California
by this arrival.

Some of the Northern papers attach but lit
tle credit to the report that Robert Schuyler is
now living in one of the German States. They
regard the fact that his family returned home
from Europe on the steamship Arago, on her
last trip, as tending to confirm the news of his
death.
_
Business has opened at St. Louis “ with a
rush,” as appears from the Intelligencer of the
7lh inst. That paper thus speaks of the lively
scene presented at the river wharf:
Tub Levee.—There was more freight dis
charged ou the Levee yesterday than was ever
on it before in any two days within the memo
ry of tho “oldest inhabitant.” There were
over forty boats discharging in the morning,
but several of them had to suspend operations
for want of room, the freight having been put j
ashore faster than the drays could haul it
away. A number of the boats at the lauding
will not get discharged this week.
Kansas.
The telegraph has already informed u.~ that
the so-called “ Free State officers of Kansas
look the oath of office at-Topeka on the Ith
inst. “Governor” Robinson then delivered a
message to the Legislature, in which be nlluded
to the report that the United States Marshal
was instructed to arrest him and his gang for
treason, and said that they would not resist
the Federal authorities -‘until there was no hope
but, in revolution.” lie recommended it mili
jtary organization of the i'Ycosoiler,-. Ihe
Legislature adjourned to Lawrence, where the
Frees oilers are strongest, and have -urge
stores of arms and ammunition, besides milita
ry defences of tho town. U'ov. Shannon was
; reported to be on his way to Lawrence to
watch their proceedings.
Thus treason has been allowed tally to tie
; rclop itself and come to a head, notwithstand
ing the positive reports that the Federal Gov
ernment intended to nip it in the bud. Two
Governments, one regular and legal and the
othei'lawless and revolutionary, now exist in
Kansas, and the revolutionary authorities are
recognized and sustained by sections ol the
Territory : yet the authorities at Washington
delay action, and treason is daily strengthened
by accessions of mercenary recruits and mili
tary stores sent uut by abolition societies !
The citizens of Lexington had intercepted
two pieces of cannon and one hundred Sharp’s
lilies ou the way to Lawrence, and held them
subject to Gov. Shannon's order. The law
and order men of Kansas and Missouri were
again becoming excited by these treasonable
proceedings and by the warlike preparations
of the Freesoilers, and it is quite likely that
they will not submit to much longer delay in
in asserting the supremacy of law and restor
ing order.
*—.
Spring Trade in Charleston.
The Charleston Standard of the 15th inst.,
says:
Meeting and llayne streets yesterday pre
sented an appearance ot business, such as has
been rarely witnessed. The sidewalks of
Meeting street from Market to llasscl streets,
and both sides of llayne street, were literally
blocked up with goods ready to be forwarded
to the country. In many places the boxes
were piled to the height of ten or twelve feet.
This was the result of two days purchases, as
Thursday was so stormy that no shipments
were made, but it indicates a degree of activi
ty in the spring trade, which is fully up to ex
pectation. The trade, though a little late, is
in fact fine, and much money lias been brought
in by country merchants ; and to this cause
is doubtless attributable to a great extent the
very large increase in deposits noticed in the
last bank statement.
It has been asked whether the business of
Charleston is really increasing, and men affect
to question whether its advancement is decided
ami substantial. Upon this subject we think
those can bo little room l'or doubt. We have
no manufacturing establishments. To this
end we want both labor and the means of cheap
subsistence. Near ten thousand slaves have
been sent oft’ within six years to populate the
West, and their places have not been entirely
supplied by white labor, and the while laborer
at present here, is charged so heavily for tho
means of subsistence, that they compete in
nothing with the labor of other sections, but
the receipts of cotton arc near ”00,000 bales
greater than they were live years ago. The
sales of dry good arc nearly twice as grcab—
Wheat and grain were never exported until
within a year, and have now become important
branches of trade. The Rice crop increases,
and Naval Stores and Lumber have become im
portant articles of export.
It is true this merely expands our character
as a commercial depot, without rendering our
city more immediately the source of its own
advancement; but still it shows increase, and
if not of the character we could wish, it is still
as decided as is to be seen in the condition of
any other city on the Atlantic seaboard.
Kinney’s Reply to Walker.
The Central American (a Kinnoy paper, pub
lished at San Juan, or Grey town) publishes a
communication from Col. Kinney in reference
to the decree of Walker and Rivas annexing
Mosquitia to Nicaragua, and disputing the
title under which he (Kinney) holds his terri
tory.
Kinney, in effect, says that the decree is
not the decree of President Rivas, butthc edict
of Gen. Walker, “the dictatorial military pow
er now controlling and directing all the acts of
the Nicaragua Executive, the object of which
it is not difficult to conjecture.” lie adds:
“ The grant to Sheppard and llaly in the
Mosquito Territory, lias been in existence since
the year 1830, and it lias not been publicly
questioned or cried down by the Government
of Nicaragua until after the lapse of seventeen
years, and then only when the ruling govern
ment has been overturned and another substi
tuted under the dictation and control of an
invading military power.”
He then proceeds to show that the Mosqui
to Territory has never been conquered or tak
en possession ofby Spain or the Central Arneri
can States; declares that the assertion that
tlu- tide of Nicaragua is “notoriousand incoii
testible,” is unsupported by a single proof :
that Sheppard and llaly have every right to
dispose of the lands granted to them, a right
“sanctioned by the highest legal authorities
in the 1 nited States and Great Britain ;” and,
consequently, denies that either they or he arc
guilty of any attempt against the integrity of
Central America, as alleged.
A letter in the New Orleans Delta under
date “Grauadu, February ”Sth. “ gives a list of
the number of Walker's men now in service
capable for duty as follows:
At Granada. Colonel Fry's command 347 men.
At Leon. Col. Skerrit's •• 353 ••
At San Carlos, Capt. Linton, “ S3 “
At Castillo, Lt. Baldwin's “ PS “
At Chiuneodagn, Lt. Col. Sanders’ 115 “
At llivas, Maj. Brewster's command 147 “
At Masaya, Capt. Averat's “ PI
Convalescent at various hospitals 28 “
Total 12t>2 “
besides a corps in Granada composed of Quar
termasters and Commissary Clerks, citizens,
Nc., numbering 130 men.
“ In the course of a month or so, says the
writer, we will receive sufficient reinforcements
to swell our number to 25,000 men, when we
will be porfoctly ready for Guatemala, who
threatens us, and is now endeavoring to create
dissention among the neighboring States.”
The Red Riverllepublican (Alexandria, La.)
states that there is much complaint from plan
ters about the seed sugar cane, and fears are
entertained that it will produce little or noth
ing. Some are preparing, on this account, to
substitute a cotton crop instead of sugar.
Nicaragua and Great Britain.
The Washington correspondent of the Balti-
I more Sun, writing under dutoof the (ith. says:
I have been enabled to obtain a copy ol the
I existing treaty of IS IP between Great Britain
: ,-uid Nicaragua, and which precludes Nicara
i gua from attempting to extend her jurisdiction
j over. San Juan del Norte or any part of (be
Musquito territory.
The treaty was made under these circum
stance-. to-wit: Nicaragua had taken posses
sion of San Juan, and a British force was
landed there, and the Nicaraguans were ex
pelled, and their flag supplanted by that of
Mosquito. The difficulty was settled by a
treaty concluded at Cuba, an island in Luke
Nicaragua, one of the articles of which stipu
lates that any attempt of the Nicaraguans --to
exercise sovereignty over any part of the Mus
quito territory, or retake possession ot San
Juan, should be construed as a declaration of
war against Great Britain.”
1 have also information from an authentic
source that the commander of Her Britannic
Majesty's fleet ou the West Indian station has
distinct orders; to prevottt Nicaragua, by force,
if necessary, from taking possession of San J u
au. I appears probable, therefore, that if the
Nicaraguan government attempt to carry into
effect their late decree, the British consul at
San Juau will enter a protest against, and give
notice of the fact to the commanders of the
British ships of war on the coast. A British
war steamer is always in readiness at San J uau
to carry orders or despatches to the British
admiral.
It is not improbable, therefore, Grey town
will soon be the scene of another bombard
ment
Slavery in Massachusetts.
It is related of Mrs. Mary Dean, a market
woman of Boston, who recently died at the
age of ninety, that she recollected that at pe
riods previous to the revolution, she saw loads
of negro children carted about for sale. When
she spoke of this circumstance, she generally
added that the first wheeled carriage she ever
saw was loaded with such slave children ; that
according to her understanding ou this sub
ject, when a cargo of slaves arrived in Boston
there was sometimes a number of children
among them from live to twelve years old,
and, as such children were not so much want
ed in Boston as adu ts, they were carried out
and disposed of at lloxbury, Dorchester, Ded
ham, Nc., at the best terms the venders could
make. — Investigator,
Tub Authors. —Less than twenty-live years
after the landing of the Puritans, their colony
passed the fugitive slave law. This is a very
important fact.
Pitkin’s Civil and Political History of the
United States, vol. 1, pages 50 and 51, in al
luding to the article of government formed for
the Plymouth confederacy, says:
“It was also very wisely provided in the
article, that runaway servants and fugitives
from justice, should be returned to the colo
nics where they belonged, or from which they
had tied.” •
Thus the North was the author of the fugi
tive slave law—kept slaves so long as it was
profitable—and engaged in the slave trade un
til the government prohibited it. AYc have
but little reason to reproach the South, whose
climate and production actually require negro
labor in some form. —Keene Republican.

Information was received by the last steam
er from Europe of gmisunderstanding between
Colonel Jackson, our Minister resident at Vi
enna, and the Austrian Government. A cor
respondent of the Washington Star says :
“ The misunderstanding has been caused by
the arrest and imprisonment of an American
citizen named Spears, who, after seven months
close confinement, during which lie was not
permitted to communicate in any way with
even his minister or consul, was tried ou the
31st of March, 1854, by a secret and unknown
tribunal, convicted of treason, and sentenced
to ten years’ labor in irons in the trenches at
Therisienstadt in Bohemia. Air. Jackson, oil
the 4th of Feb., demanded a properly certified
copy of the testimony said to have been used
in the conviction of Spears, au<l informed Count
Buol in bis note that unless lie received an
affirmative reply within four weeks lie should,
at the expiration of that time, withdraw from
a court where lie could no longer remain with
honor to his country or advantage to its citi
zens. As there is no probability that the de
sired answer will he forthcoming, or that any
testimony really existed against the man, Air.
Jackson may be expected to leave Vienna
shortly after you receive this.”

Interview’ between Worrell and Bruff.
We take the following account of an inter
view between these two men, now incarcerat
ed on the charge of killing Basil H. Gordon,
from the St. Louis Herald. After describing
their “being brought together in the jail office,
the article says:
Bruff said to Worrell, “Well, Ned, 1 guess
yon find it is not so’small a matter after all—
-1 have!” The crimson again mounted to Wor
rell’s cheeks, lie trembled slightly, dropped his
eyes to the floor, then again raised them, and,
without answering, bestowed one of the most
imploring looks upon Bruff we ever have seen.
Bruff resumed “don’t you recollect I told you,
as soon as you done that, you had fixed the
case for both of us?” Still Worrell made no
reply, hut continued to cast the same look up
on Bruff, whilst liruif appeared to be as much
composed and undisturbed, in fact, more so,
than any ouo present at the time. Hruff ask
el for a cigar, which was hamledhi: , and one
offered Worrell. Worrell received it, but his
hand trembled so violently, lie could hardly
light it, and when he did, to the person who
gave the cigar, he said in a choking and lurk
ing tone, scarce above a whisper, “Thank you
sir.”
The conversation was again engaged in by all
present, and continued for probably an hour,
both prisoners as well as all present participa
ting in it, in regard to various little incidents
connected with the army, their pursuit and
history generally. When Gordon’s good qual
ities and virtues were referred to by a gentle
man present, Draff listened attentively but ap
parently undisturbed, but Worrell seemed agi
tated. Bruff again alluded to the murder,
“Ned, how did you expect to meet me, after
your saying that I had done the shooting ?”
For a moment Worrell made no answer, and
then said, “ I have made up my mind to an
swer no more questions on the subject. 1 have
been advised to do so, and will not answer any
at present.” Bruff then remarked, “I have
done, and will ask no more.”
.After a lengthy conversation a gentleman
remarked, that any admission which might
criminate themselves was not desired, but if
they felt disposed to make any acknowledg
ments, to tell the truth or else say nothing.
Worrell said he would say nothing more about
the matter, unless it would ; e the truth. That
when lie speaks about the murder hereafter,
ho will the whole truth, and that will probably
be after the arrival of his parents.
Adulteration of Lard.
The New York Journal of Commerce says:
Our remarks a few days since about the
adulteration of lard for shipment, it appears,
excited a suspicion, that, perhaps, the same
thing had been attempted for the home trade.
Some adulterations were formerly practiced
with Indian meal, but that discolored the lard,
and the improvement on this art, lately im
ported from England, provides for the substi
tution of farina, which assimilates so closely
to the genuine articles as not to be detected by
inspection. The suspicion excited by our com
ments was farther confirmed by the recollec
tion that some dealers in lard who had pur
chased almost daily n the market, were also
sellers at a price below the costof tlieir invest
ment, and yet appeared to do a thriving busi
ness. A test was applied to a lot thus re
sold to a Boston dealer, and the lard was sub
jected to the fire, when lo! the owner had not
only a kettle of lard, but also a good sized
jolumycakc nicely fried in the boiling fat!—
Shade of Bunker Hill, only think of a genuine
from the country where wooden nutmegs are
natives of the soil, taking home with him such
a mixture! A Yankee is never at a loss, and
we have no doubt that a descendant of the man
who made such a speculation by shipping
warming-pans to the West Indies, and turning
them to good account as sugar ladies, will in
vent anew system of selling doughnuts al
ready fried upon the application of a lucifer
match, out of this doubtful investment.
The Fugitives of Canada.
It is now estimated that 30,000 fugitives are
already in Canada, chiefly of the class of able
bodied men and women. These, at home,
would average in value SI,OOO, or at least
SBOO, summing up $24,000,000 —the absolute
loss to the capital of four States. But added
to this, there are still remaining in the North
ern States, as servants, &c., about six thous
and negroes, who, not fearing pursuit, have
not passed into Canada. These, at SI,OOO
each—a low figure for first class slaves, as the
runaways almost universally are—would add
$0,000,000 —making the aggregate at this time,
at the lowest calculation, $30,000,000 which the
slave owners have to lose, and from which
they have no resort.
Now. the rate of escape to Canada averages
twenty persons per day, taking the figures of
1855 as a basis. This would go to give to
1850, 7,300 persons—which, at SBOO each,
would add $5,840,000 per year.
In l’aris a Alons do Bora has recently dis
covered the secret of making hens lay eggs
every day in the year. He feeds them on horse
flesh, and obtains his supply of twenty-five or
thirty a day, among the used-up hacks of the
city, ilis hennery, a few miles from Paris,
has furnished about forty thousand dozen of
eggs a week at the rate of six dozen for four
francs, yielding the proprietor for every seven
days the round sum of $5,000, or $200,000 a
year. Alons. dc Sora employs about one hun
dred persons, mostly females, aud his entire
expenses are only about $75,000 a year, leav
ing him the handsome balance of $185,000,
profit, lie never allows a hen to set, and all
his chickens ure hatched by steam. The eggs
are arranged upon the shelves and covered
with blankets aud each morning a swarm of
chickens arc taken to the nursery.
Snow in the Mountains.
it is stated in the Western (Ya.) Herald, of
tho 3d instant, that the snow along the Alle
ghany and Cheat mountains has been full five
feet in depth for some weeks past, and the
road almost impassable to travelers. On one
occasion, four or five persons had to remain
several days at the foot of Cheat before they
could get away, and they had to shovel off the
snow for some three miles, to allow a passage.
When they arrivod at White’s (on the moun
tain) the stable was covered up with snow, aud
the travelers had to remove it before their
horses could be put away.
