COLUMBU s>: Tiiriidny Morning, Mnreli • *> 1 H,,< “ Uitl.lCST CITI < IKCI 1-ATIO.V. 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. *♦— Tho British Board of Admiralty have notified our Government that they have adopted Hr. Kano’s charts, thus throwing overboard the charts of Capt. Inglofield and other Arctic navigators belonging to the British Navy, as well as the works of all Dr. Kano’s predeces sors ou the coast of ( : rconlnud. ♦- ■ The bill to establish u patrol on the Ohio river, to prevent the escape of slaves, in the Kentucky Legislature, has been referred to i special committee. Mr. Nuttal advocated the bill, lie said SIOO,OOO worth of slave property had escaped from the border counties incc Christmas. - ♦ • —. 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.” +, A Mammoth Will. The will of the late Air. Thomas Cubitt, the eminent London builder, is one of the longest upon record, and extends to 380 chancery folios covering thirty skins of parchment. The personal estate exceeds £1,000,000, and is charged with the highest amount in the scale of probate duty, the stamp being .£15,000. — The widow lias an immediate bequest of £20,- 000 and an annuity of £B,OOO. Air. Cubitt began life as a day laborer. —— In Charlottesville, Virginia, on Tuesday last, fifty-one negroes were sold at auction for $28,- 725, an average of $7lB each. One of the men brought only $25, being very old, and several others were infirm. A girl, 22 years old, brought $1,4 15, and a blacksmith of or dinary appearance, sold for $1,500. — Chloroform, according to the recent conclu sions of the Surgical Society of l’aris, is the most dangerous amesthotio as well as the most powerful, lt may cause death when mixed iu too great proportion with air. lt predisposes to syncope, and it renders the latter more se rious when it occurs. A mixture of it with ether is preferable, as it then produces insen sibility quickly, aud seems to excite less re action. Leap Year in New York. A petition lias been presented in the New York Legislature asking that a law be passed j making every alternate year a “leap year.”— The petition sets forth that for the past few weeks of the new year many more marriages j have taken place and much more courting go. ing forward, and they believe that leap year is a useful and bcncficialiustitutiou, calculated to do much for “woman’s rights.” - - Information Wanted. Aly husband, Charles Wieman, left Alohile ou the loth December last for .Montgomery, and 1 have not heard from him since. He could not have deserted me, and if any one can give me information about him, they will please write me. Papers North ami South will please copy this notice, and oblige his wife and child. Caroline Wieman. Alobile, March 11, 1850. Me notice in some of our exchanges, and the complaint is almost universal in this lo cality, that but very little sweet potato seed have been saved. The very warm and dry tall, and the severe winter, have caused im mense quantities to vol.—Augusta Const. Ihe same complaint prevails in this neigh borhood. 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. ♦ Buie for Measuring Tonnage of Steam boats.
