LAKtiEHT CITY CIRCCI.ATIOJV.
The Kansas Expedition-
Maj. tin tiiril nnil his company of Kansas em
igrants, raised in the counties of Alabama he
low this city, arrived here yesterday morning,
ami were received in accordance with the pro
gramme published yesterday. Maj. Buford
brought up about 7'> emigrants—hardy and
intelligent men—and they were joined here by
(.'apt. Bell’s corps of 115 or 30 South Carolini
ans from Edgefield District. These were
young men whose bearing bespoke their intel
ligence and patriotism, and who worthily rep
resent the chivalry and spirit of their gallant
State. The emigrants were met at the Bridge
by the volunteer companies of our city, which
turned out in full force and with a fine dis
play, and were escorted by them audbya large
concourse of citizens to Temperance Hall,
where they were received nnd welcomed in
an appropriate address by James Hamilton,
F.sq., nnd by the enthusiastic greeting of thou
sands of our citizens. Maj. Buford responded
in some feeling and cheering remarks ; and
Uph. Baker, Esq., of Barbour county, in re
sponse to a call from the assembly, addressed
the company in a speech of much eloquence,
force nnd spirit, which aroused the feelings
and strengthened the resolution of his country
men, and was received with enthusiastic ap
plause.
These ceremonies over, an opportunity was
afforded to citizens of Georgia to join the com
pany at this place, and wc understand that
about fifty have enrolled their names.
The company will leave this morning for
Montgomery, where Maj. Buford expects to be
joined by one or two companies from upper
Georgia and by a considerable accession of
Alabamians. At Mobile, too, a number of
emigrants are expected to be in readiness, and
a handsome sum has been contributed to aid
in defraying the expenses of the expedition.
For the information of fanatical hypocrites
and religious rifle-providers at the North, it
may be well to state that these emigrants go
out entirely unarmed, carrying with them not
a “ingle “ride” or other fire-arm. It is very
questionable, however, whether it will be quite
safe for the “emigrant aid” vagabonds to coin#
into collision with them. j
“War Commenced in Central America.
The steamship Daniel Webster, arrived on
the 29th ult,. at New Orleans from San Juan,
briugs important and exciting news from Ni
caragua. Costa Rica, as previous advices in
formed us, had refused to receive an ambassa
dor from Walker’s government, .on the ground
that North Americans were employed to uphold
it. <ii (he Ist of March, the President of Cos
ta Kiea issued a proclamation calling his peo
ple to arms, urging them to make war upon the
“filibusters” and free their brethren of Nica
ragua from their dominion—vowing a war of
“extermination to the last man,” audanuounc
ing that. Uuatamelu, San Salvador and Hondu
ras were on the march against Nicaragua.—
Gen. Walker met this declaration of war by the
following brief “General Order ?”
Hkadquarikus ok thk Army, Adjutant
General's Omen, (Jivanada, March 13, 185 G.
The Supreme Provisional Government of the
public of Nicaragua having formally declared
war, liy decree of March 11, 185(i, against the
State of Costa Rica, tho Army will be held in
readiness to commence active operations.
By command of WM. WALKER,
General Uomuianding-in-Chief.
I’ll. R. Thompson, Adjutant General, N. A.
He also immediately attended 300 troops
across the Lake to Virgin Bay, and after wait
ing a day or two to secure supplies, sent 280
in a battalion of five companies into Costa Rica
to commence the war. These troops had not
had a skirmish up to the latest accounts, but
had supplied themselves with horses, and were
about to make an attack upon Guanacoste.—
The Kinney paper at San Juan learns that the
troops sent into Costa Rica consist of one com
pany from New York, one from New Orleans,
u German and a French company.
Walker has also issued a proclamation which
seems to lie a sort of declaration of the inde
pendence of his Government, sustained by the
North Americans, and its determination to
seek no longer to conciliate the refractory par
ty at home, but to make war upon it and its
“fellow serviles” of the other i Central American
States. We will publish this proclamation,
with other interesting information in reference
to the ditticulties of Nicaragua, to-morrow.
The Charleston ami Savannah papers have
dispatches from New Orleans, announcing that
Walker had been reinforced by the arrival of
110 Americans ; and that olio of Walker’s de
tachments having seized the English and Costa
Rica mail, the English officers demanded its
restoration, and on the commandant of the dc
detaehineut refusing the demand, the English
sent dispatches to the West India squadron,
which has caused a guiliering of troops in the
vioinity of San Juan, in. anticipation of an at
tack from the English.
Hales at Savannah.
We learn from the Savannah papers, that at
the public sales in that city on Tuesday the
property sold brought much less than the prices
ruling a short time since. No stock was sold.
The negroes brought very low prices, and there
appeared to bo little disposition among bidders
to purchase; but the Republican says that
those ottered were “of indifferent quality.”
The city lots also sold at prices much less than
thev*would have commanded a few months ago.

Rain, Rain
It commenced raining here a little after dark
last Saturday night and continued almost in
cessantly until Sunday night. The rivers are
now (Monday morning) higher than they have
been at any time since March 1854, and are
rapidly rising. —Rome Courier, Tuesday.
The above accounts for the rise in the Chat
tahoochee at this place on Tuesday and Wed
nesday, as the rains up the country swelled its
tributaries.
We learn from the Montgomery Journal,
that the negro who murdered Mr. Capehart,
at Mt Meigs, was burnt to death on Wednes
day. He confessed his guilt
“All Fools’ Day.”
Our friends of the Atlanta Uxamiuer are
down upon this time-honored
like “a thousand of brick. Were it not for
tlit* disclaimer put in for their wffiole city, we
should conclude that the editors of that paper
were the hext-foolrd men in all Georgia, and
that they are still scratching sore heads and
indulging in “qualifying expressions” at the
expense of some mischievous youngsters who
were graceless enough to perpetrate jokes
even upon the conductors of the press. Ta
king such things in better part, we are not
disposed to rail at “All-Fools Bay. ‘ We are
told that there is “a time for all things.” Wc
set apart ono-seveuth ut our time tor religious
services and long faces ; one day in the year
wc devote to patriotism and the military spir
it; Christmas comes once a year as a holiday
and a carnival for the young and light-hearted;
our “Young America” will have days tor dan
cing and frolic ; and why should not one day
in the year also furnish a license for fun and
merriment, provided nothing malicious or re
ally dangerous is countenanced '! True phi
losophy suggests that we sober subjects ol the
pranks of the mischievous community should
rather try to enter into the spirit of the thing
and boar our perplexities with a good grace.
“A little nonsense, now and then,
Is relished by the wisest men
and if the Ist of April had not passed, our
staid cotemporaries at Atlanta would be apt
to find that their expression of opposition to
“All-Fools’ Day” was not the part of wisdom.
We venture to say that none of her “sister
cities” ran boast as much as Atlanta in this
respect: the “Railroad City” has had a mo
nopoly of exemption from Ist of April pranks.
Wo have heard of several jokes in our own
wicked corporation, and we dare say that “the
half has not been told us.” So we have to
plead guilty to a participation in the foolery
of the occasion.
But wc are keeping our readers from the
strictures of the Examiner, which we subjoin:
All-Fools’ Day. —Wc arc glad to see the
absurd practices of this day were but little re
garded yesterday by our young folks, and the
amount of folly yclept joking which marked
tire advent of the first day of April was so
meagre that hopes are entertained the ridicu
lous farces attempted upon its annual recur
rence will be abandoned by every sensible
community. The amount of lying (not exten
uated because practical in jest) usually perpe
trated annually upon that day seems to begin
to be regarded as dishonorable, an estimation in
which it has not heretofore been held ; and our
young men begin to feel that a lie, told even
in jest, attaches to it a moral turpitude incon
sistent Avith the true dignity of a high-toned
gentleman.
Wc can’t help it, but we have always enter
tained a disgust for the observance of “All
Fools’ Day,” and it is to us a source of unal
loyed pleasure to announce one Fool’s Day,
without any fools. Can any of our sister ci
ties boast as much ?
It is said that the Roman Catholic Bishop of
Connecticut was a passenger on the Pacific,
and that if she is lost, all the real estate here
tofore conveyed to him, as the Bishop of the
Diocese, for religious worship or burial pur
poses, will, according to a law of Connecticut,
passed last year, “vest in the religious cor
poration formed by the congregation or society
occupying such real estate.”
New Counties.
The Milledgeville Recorder corrects us as to
the statement that the last Legislature chang
ed the name of “Mclntosh county” to Preston;
it Avas the town of Mclntosh which it re-chris
tened Preston.
The Recorder adds:
“The Sun is certainly right in turning into
ridicule the mania for new counties. Most of
the newly created counties applied to the Leg
islature to have the State tax remitted for the
present year, that it might be used in building
their Court-houses and Jails. The fact Avas
shown in debate that there were upwards of
twenty counties uoav in the State that did not
pay suflicient tax to defray the expense of their
members to the Legislature. Notwithstanding
all this, bills to call a convention to make a
reform, and reduce the number of members,
were rejected in the Senate at the last as Avell
as the preceding session of the Legislature.”
Correspondence of the Charleston Standard.
Washington, March lilt.
The Kansas l'arce is about culminating in
the organization of the Committee to investi
gate the frauds upon the ballot box by the
“Border Ruffians.” Mr. Sherman who reach
ed here last evening, takes the place of Mr.
Campbell, who declined serving on the Com
mittee, preferring to continue at the head of
the Committee of Ways and Means. The Com
mittee met this morning at the rooms of Mr.
Oliver, of Missouri, another member of the
Committee, and entered into preliminary ar
rangements for a prosecution of their labors.
W. Blair Lord, of Baltimore, and late reporter
to the South Carolina Legislature, has been
unanimously selected as phonographic repor
ter to the Committee. The members of the
Committee are anxious to leave for the West,
and Mr. Oliver starts to-day ; yet a resolution
is pending before the House making inquiry
whether this Committee can force the attend
ance of witnesses, and arrest for contempt. It
is clear that they have no such power, and yet,
they proceed West with instructions to compel
the attendance of persons, and for contempt,
to arrest them and bring them before the
House. The whole subject of the Kansas con
tested election l regard as at an end, so far as
Congress is concerned.
The negro-worshipping National Committee
are now in session here, finding the soundings
for their Convention in June next. Senator
Seward entertained them in magnificent stylo
at his private residence here—but some of them
say Seward won’t do—that tho Anti-Nebraska
party is beaten unless they select a candidate
above the suspicion of abolition proclivities.—
Mr. Morgan of New York, chairman of the
National Committee, declares this to be liis
view of the case, and further, that should
their candidate not be above suspicion on this
point, the Nebraska reign is as certain to be
continued ns the Cincinnati Convention assem
ble.
Refinement in Language.
A gentleman ordered a rocking chair, which
was received by his wife, a lady very precise
in her speech, when sent to her residence.—
Upon making trial of her chair, the gentleman
expressed his great satisfaction with it, when
his wife remarked:
“The man said its equilibrium wasaccurate
ly adjusted.”
“Did he really say that—those very words?”
inquired the husband.
“Why, no, not exactly,” replied the lady ;
“lie said it joggled just right!”
Seizure of an American Ship at San Bias.
The American ship Adeline, ol Boston, Capt.
Woods, from Valparaiso for San Bias, with a
general cargo, consisting of dry goods, kc.,
consigned to Mr. Forbes, the American Consul
at that place, arrived on the Mexican coast,
after having sprung a leak, and the creAA r be
ing on an allowance of a bottle of water a day
each. ,
Put into Trcs Marias Islands Dec. —Otli and
sent a boat on shore for water ; the boat was
lost in the surf, when another boat was des
patched to try and reach the shore, the captain,
mate, and steward being all that remained on
board.
A Mexican man-of-war schooner hove m
sight, and soon came alongside the Adeline,
Avhich she boarded and took possession 01.
('apt. Woods was taken on board the schooner
and placed under a guard of twenty-six sol
diers. When the crew of the ship returned on
board, the commander of the schooner took
charge of the Adeline, and then brought her
into San Bias, where she lay until January
20th.
During this time they sent officers on board
and took out the entire cargo, and also nearly
all the wearing apparel of the captain, mate
and creAV. They then hauled her into the in
ner harbor.
Capt. Wood protested strongly against this
high-handed outrage, but all to no purpose. He
then left and Avcnt to Mazatlnn, where he still
remains.
The cargo of the Adeline Avas shipped at
Valparaiso by Messrs. Mickle & Cos., American
merchants. Air. Hale, the supercargo, was on
board, and re. ained at Han Bias. The mate
and a portion of the ci'cav came passengers in
the schooner Glulietta.
The reason given by the authorities for seiz
ing the vessel was, that they took her for a
smuggler. The ship at the time was seventy
three miles from any port on the Mexican
coast.
We learn that the captains and crcAVs of the
barks R. Adams and Archibald Grade, togeth
er Avith 80 of the filibusters, have been sent to
Tepie. The captain of the R. Adams was in a
most dcstituto condition. The bark had been
robbed of everything on board, and entirely
dismantled by the natives. The Mexican sol
diers had forcibly taken everything from the
unfortunate crcAvs of thcA’cssels, and left them
almost naked.

The Case of Gov. Price, of New Jersey.
Gov. Price, of Ncav Jersey, is on trial before
the United States Circuit Court at Trenton for
a defalcation of public funds Avhilst a purser
in the Navy. The amount claimed by the
Government is $77,818,42. This demand is
offset by the Governor by a claim of $120,000
which lie alleges to have paid Mr. Van Nos
trand, his successor, and a credit for $89,000,
the vouchers for which lie lost, as is alleged,
by the burning of a steamboat. Both these
claims have been disallowed by the Govern
ment and the Court is called to decide on their
validity.
Trenton, (N. J.) March 29.
In the case of the United States vs. Gov.
Price, the jury have rendered a verdict of one
hundred and ninety-five dollars in favor of the
defendant. Judge Grier charged strongly in
favor of Gov. Price.
The bill submitted in the United States Sen
ate by Senator Hunter, the object of which is
to dispense with the use of the depreciated
foreign coins now in circulation, provides that
all quarters, eighths and sixteenths of the
Spanish milled or Mexican dollar shall be re
ceived at all the offices of the United States at
twenty, ten and five cents, and made legal ten
ders for all sums not exceeding five dollars ;
and that these fractions of the dollar of foreign
coin when received shall not again be paid out,
but be recoined. Wo fear that this lawjwill be
found of very slow and uncertain operation in
relieving our currency of the disfigured, frac
tional foreign coin now in circulation. So long
as that coin will pass elsewhere for the value
it represents, but little will find its way into
the mint at the depreciation of twenty per ct.
placed upon it by the bill. An additional pro
vision proscribing the circulation of the coin
at a higher rate than paid for it by the United
States, seems necessary in order to give the law
full etticiency.— Char. Courier.
The Times Paris correspondent writes, on
I the 10th ult.: “Nothing positive has trans
pired of the proceedings to-day.
“ The last/rte given for the Plenipotcntia
-1 vies took place last night at the Tuileries.—
During the performance of a piece entitled
‘There is no Smoko without Fire,’ Count Or
lott and Count lluol retired to a distant part of
the saloon, and kept up a dialogue until the
play was nearly over. Count lluol appeared
entirely ou the defensive. He evidently tried
to make the best of what the other considered
a poor ease, anil when lie could not answer,
shrugged his shoulders piteously and helpless
ly : but the more vehement part of the con
versation was that of the Russian.”
Mr. Everett at Washington.
The oration of this gentleman at Washing
ton city ou Thursday evening last week, was
pronounced before one of the largest, most in
telligent, as well as distinguished audiences
that has been seen in that city for manyyears.
It more than realized the highest expectations
of tho public, and contributed to the Mount

Mount Vernon not for Sale.
The following letter says the Spartan, ad
dressed by the owner, John A. Washington, to
Mrs. M. S. Wofford, of our village, brings out
the startling fact, after all that has been done
by the ladies of the South, and the great
er labor and means they are still willing to be
stow upon the movement, that Mount \ ornon
is not for sale. How is this? What is the ex
planation ? At the instance of the Ladies’
Mount Vernon Association at Richmond, Ed
ward Everett delivered his great oration on
Washington in the capitol of Virginia, realiz
ing for the funds of the organization oA*er
SBOO, and it is to be repeated at various points
in Virginia and elsewhere, for the same pur
pose. In addition, stimulated by the advent of
Everett in the Old Dominion, the Legislature
of Virginia passed a bill incorporating the La
dies’ Mount Vernon Association of the Union;
and yet patriotic ladies, ready and able to
stimulate the sacred purpose, are told “ that
Mount Vernon is not for sale.”
Mount Vernon, March 14th, 185(i.
To Mrs. Maria S. Wofford.
Madam —l havereceived your letter of March

by the ladies of different parts of the United

Iron Hoops for Cotton Bales.
We had* the pleasure of examining, yester
day, anew and highly important invention of
our fellow townsman, 1). McComb, Esq., of
great value to cotton, growers. It is a neAv
method of fastening iron hoops on cotton bales,
Avhich makes the hoop very greatly more se
cure than rope, and is of easy application, so
that tAvo hoops can be put on a bale in the
same time it requires to put on one rope. The
hoop is much less liable to decay than rope,
and Avill not burn, and the bale can be kept in
less bounds than it is possible to keep it with
rope. This improved hoop promises to revo
lutionize the character of cotton packages, and
Avill cost less than rope, Avhilst it will be one
hundred per cent, better than rope. —Memphis

We learn from planters, that the recent
freshets and cold weather have interfered ma
terially avi th the planting of the rice crop on
the Ogeechco and Altamaha rivers, especially
on the upper and inland plantations. Gener
ally, the greater part of the crop is put in
the ground during the month of March, and
certainly by the middle of April, unless the
operations of the planter are suspended by
freshets or other causes beyond his control, in
Avhich event the Avork of planting is sometimes
continued at intervals, through April and May,
even into June. Thus far but a small propor
tion of the upper rice-lands on the streams
above mentioned, has been planted. We hear
of some complaint on the Savannah, but not
to the same extent. It is probable, though
we have no information to that effect, that the
same causes have conspired to retard the ope
rations of the planters on the Carolina rivers.

Female Biot—Whisky Below Par.
On Saturday last, about twenty or thirty of
the most respectable ladies in Farmington—
backed up and protected by about 300 men
and boys—turned out armed with suitable im
plements, and went to every grogshop in the
place, and emptied out all the intoxicating
drinks they could find ; which, from all that
we could learn, was not a very small quantity.
One man locked up his groggery, determined
to keep them out: but finding them resolute
and unflinching, he finally unlocked it again,
to save them the trouble of breaking the door
in, then stood and watched them turn his li
quors out; and when they had finished, he
jumped upon the counter and proposed three
cheers for the ladies, after which lie made
them a short speech, and declared that he
would never sell any more intoxicating drinks
as long as lie lived in Farmington. We hope
he will be as good as his word, and that the
ladies will see that all the rest do likewise. In
one grocery the ladies, by mistake, attacked a
barrel of molasses. Like the dog in the fable,
that’s what it got for being in bad company.
We believe, however, they contrived to save
the contents with but little loss. Thus, in one
afternoon, the ladies of Farmington have clear
ed their town of that dread destroyer—alcho
liol. Although wo do not believe in riotous
and illegal proceedings, yet we rejoice that
the citizes of Farmington have shown a deter
mination to have their town freed from the in
fluence of intoxicating drinks, and we hope
they will persevere in that determination.—

Romance and Pork and Beans.
There are some people who appear to have
no sentiment about them. This was practical
ly illustrated a couple ol’ days ago. A young
friend of ours has a nice little wife, and is
briskly at house keeping, but is notoriously
forgetful about attending to the numerous lit
tle provisionary orders, just as necessary for a
happy household as love itself—for people
with well filled stomachs are always more in
clined to love than the hungry and cold, no
matter if romance and roast beef are incom
patible in books. Well, the other morning,
after receiving strict injunctions not to forget
this and that little trifle, and especially “some
meat for dinner,” our friend grew sentimental
with the parting endearments.
“My dear,” lie said, “you have not given
me that loekot with your likeness in it, which
1 ought to have had befo c our marriage.”
“Oh, you don't want it—you arc only pre
tending,”
“Pretending, dearest: Nay, I promise to
wear it next to my heart till death parts us.”
“And will it always remind you—”
“Aye, it will always remind me, sweet one,
of our early vows—of my early love—of the
angel spirit (our friend is romantic) guiding
and lighting my pathway—”
“But, my dear, will it remind you—”
“Yes, dearest one, it will remind me every
time I gaze at it, every time I press my lips to
it, of the holy love I bear its angel original, of
the deep devotion of a life which is all hers,
of—”
“But my dear,” interrupted the fond and
happy wife, intent on Arridea: “will it remind
you to he sure and get that meat for dinner?”
Sentiment and romance dropped, and pork
and beans triumphed.— Evansville Journal.
