COLUMBUS:
Shl unlay Morning’ April A, 1856.
I. A KGKST CITY CIRCULATION.
Fatal Accident.
Tiioa. Wooldridge, Eq., ot Chattahoochee
county, formerly it Representative in our Rtnte
Legislature, was tlirown front ltis buggy tut
Thursday afternoon, a mile or two from this
city, and killed. We understand thattlie horse
became uniitaimgeable and ran against aleuce,
throwing a rail against Mr. Wooldridge and
breaking his neck.
Departure of the Emigrants.
Mnj. Itnford's company left our city lor
Montgomery tty yesterday morning’s train. —
His colonists numbered about 14<> or 150, ot
whom some 40 or . r tO joined him at this place,
do came from South Carolina under the direc
tion of (apt. Hell, of Edgefield, and the bal
ance were brought up by Mnj. B. from Har
bour ami other counties in Alabama below this
t tty. The company will undoubtedly be largely
recruited at Montgomery and Mobile, and per
haps at other towns on the Alabama river.—
About $llOO was subscribed and paid over ut
ibis place in uid of the enterprise, and the sub
scription list is still kept open at the offices of
Edgar 0. Dawson, Esq., and at the Times and
Sentinel.
-
The Printers.
We learn that there were night printers in
Mnj. Buford's company when it left this city.
Four of them were from one office in Savan
nah. This intelligent amlspirited class seems
to he more largely and promptly represented
in any new and honorable enterprise, in pro
portion to its numbers, than any other occu
pation of our people ; and they are the right
kind of pioneers for the settlement of anew
and disputed territory, for tlieir varied stock
of information will be found valuable in the
discussion and surmounting of almost any em
barrassing difficulty that may be presented.
Naughty.
A Savannah paper of the first of April stated
that a large shark had been caught off Tybce,
and was on exhibition (hat morning at the foot
of the Exchange Dock; also, that “on open
ing his stomach, there was found a jack knife
and a pair of seaman’s hoots, together with a
xilver watch, which on examination was found
to agree with the Savannah town clock.” The
( ohnnbia Times gulped down this whole story
—the running watch andall—and re-published
it as a genuine news item. But won’t the At
lanta Examiner and the good people of its so
ber city he horrified at the depravity of this
“lying” joke ! If the Savannah editor escapes
u Barbour oils rasping with a portion of the
shark’s skin, lie will be fortunate beyond his
deserts.
The steamer (Jov. Graham —whose first and
pioneer successful trip from Charleston to
Columbia we noticed the other day—was una
ble to get down the river on her return, being
obstructed and stopped at the Congaree Bridge
by the stumps of the old bridge, which had
otbeen removed. In going up, she found the
river higher, and passed over these obstruc
tions without difficulty.

More Aid to Walker.
The bark Eureka has been chartered at New
Orleans to convey emigrants to Nicaragua, and
she was to have sailed on the 2<l inst. with
four hundred men to join Walker. There is,
we think, but. little probability that the Cen
tral American States can expel Walker, unless
the British and French lloets undertake to cut
off his recruits from this country, or our own
Qoverument takes that matter in hand. As
peace is now about to he re-established in Eu
rope Central America will become the great
section of interest to those who watch with
earnest gaze the movements and progress of
nations Hurrah for the North Americans!
The State House of Louisiana, at Baton
Rouge, was discovered to he on lire on the
80th ult., but the tiames were checked by the
active exertions of the citizens, without mate
rial injury to the main building. The north
western tower was considerably burnt and dis
figured. and much of the furniture of the
House of Representatives was damaged. The
fire is supposed to have originated from a cigar
carelessly thrown aside by someone ascending
the tower.
•
The New Orleans Delta of the Ist inst. says
that a gentleman direct from Central America
.assures it that the settlers under Kiuney ure
determined to he on good terms with Walker
and his men, and will cordially unite with
them against any enemy from within or w ith
out He thinks that the two leaders, though
personally unfriendly, have the same great
object in view, and that there will he no colli
sion lict ween them.

Hon. Edward Everett had consented, at the
request of many Southern gentlemen, to visit
Virginia again shortly, and to extend his tour
iuto several of the Southern States, for the
purpose of delivering his lecture on Washing
ton in the principal towns—the proceeds to be
applied towards the purchase of Mount Ver
non. Hut the proprietor of Mt. Vernon having
curtly announced to the Virginia ladies that
the property is not for sale, this declaration
may perhaps break up the engagement.

Affairs in Central America.
The following is the proclamation of war by
the President of Costa Rica, —which.it will he
seen, does not nttine any particular cause of
quarrel witli Walker’s Government, hut avows
an intention to take a part in the intestine
quarrels id’ Nicaragua and to expel North
Americans from her territory :
The President of tin■ Republic oj Costa Rica to
all its Inhabitants.
Fellow-Countrymen to arms !—The hour
that 1 foretold to you has arrived. Eet us
march to Nicaragua to destroy that wicked
phalanx which lias reduced her to the most
shameful slavery ! Let us march to fight for
the liberty of our brethren.
They call on you, they expectyou to rise up
against her oppressors. Her cause is our
cause. Those who to-duy rob, revile, and as
sassinate them, audaciously defy us, and en
deavor to bind upon us thesame bloody chains.
Let us tlv to burst asunder those of our breth
ren and to exterminate our executioners to the
lust man.
We do not go to contend for a piece of land,
or to acquire ephemeral power; not to achieve
miserable, conquest, and much less for sucri
ligious purposes. No! we go to struggle for the
redemption of all our brethren from the most
iniquitous tyranny. We go to help them in
the fruitful work of tlieir regeneration. We
go to tell them, “ Brethren of Nicaragua, rise!
annihilate your oppressors. We come here to
tight by your side, for your liberty, for your
country! Union, Nicaraguans, union! Bury
your internal differences forever! No more
party lends, no more fratricidal discords!—
Peace,justice, and liberty for nil! War only
on filibusters.
To the conflict, then, Costa llicans—l march
at the head of the national army. 1, who re
joice to see this day your noble enthusiasm,
which makes me proud to call you my sons,
wish always to share danger and glory with
you.
Your mothers, wives, sisters and daughters
animate you. Their patriotic virtues willmake
us invincible. In fighting for the safety of
our brethren, we shall fight likewise for them,
for their honor, for tlieir existence, for our
idolized country, and .Spanish-American inde
pendence.
All the loyal sons of Guatemala, San Salva
dor and Honduras are in march upon that
horde of bandits. <)ur cause is holy ; triumph
certain. God will give us victory, and with it
peace, concord, liberty, and union in the great
Central American family.
Juan R. Mob a.
Sun Jose, March 1, iBSO.
We published yesterday Walker’s prompt
warlike order in response to this manifesto.—
The following proclamation has also been is
sued by him, which seems to meet the issue of
a war of races throughout Central America,
and to include both rebellious parties at home
and the enemies of his North American coun
trymen throughout the States of Central Ame
rica :
Invited to Nicaragua by the Democratic par
ty of the Republic, the American force under
my command has steadily struggled to carry
out the principles for which the revolution of
1854 was undertaken. In order, however, to
consolidate a general peace, we were willing
to bury past differences and endeavor to amal
gamate the two parties into one. For this
purpose we have, since the treaty of October
last, held in check our old friends the Demo
crats, and have attempted to conciliate the
men formerly attached to the Government of
Estrada.
With the same view the provisional Govern
ment of Nicaragua, although different in ideas
and principles from the Governments of the
other States of Central America, attempted to
establish frank and friendly relations with the
neighboring Republics. Our overtures of peace
have been rejected. Our propositions of
friendship have been not only disregarded but
treated with scorn and disdain. Contempt and
contumely have been returned for the amica
ble messages we sent to the other Governments.
The only reason given for such conduct is the
presence of American forces in the State of
Nicaragua.
The self-styled legitimist party of Nicaragua
lias repulsed our efforts at conciliation. They
have maintained communications with their
l'ellow-serviles in the other States. They have
by all means in their power, attempted to wea
ken the present Provisional Government, and
have given aid and encouragement to the ene
mies of Nicaragua outside of the Republic.
In this condition of affairs, nothing is left
for the Americans in Nicaragua but hostility
| to the serviles throughout Central America.
! Avery large proportion of the so-called legiti
mists of this State are either open or secret
enemies to our presence on this soil. They
owe us for the protection they have had for
tlieir lives and property ; they have paid us
with ingratitude and treachery.
Against the servile parties and servile Gov
ernments of Central America, the Americans
in Nicaragua are bound, by the common law
of self-protection, to declare eternal enmity.
Our proffered friendship has been rejected
We can only make them feel that our enmity
may be as dangerous and destructive as our
friendship is faithful and true.
The troops of the army of the Republio of
Nicaragua will assume and wear the red rib
bon. By command of William Walker.
General Commanding-in-Chief.
I’ll. 1!. Thompson,
Adjutant General Nicaraguan Army.
The subjoined remarks on the war and its
prospects arc from El Niearagueusc. Walker’s
Government newspaper :
By the official publicat ions in another portion
of the paper, both in Spanish and English, it
will be perceived that wo are in the midst of
war. The dire alternative has beenforcod up
on us, mid we disclaim all responsibilities in
its origin. Nicaragua would have preferred a
peaceable adjustment of her difficulties with
Costa Rica, as her offers of peace have amply
testified ; but she does not shrink from the
sterner arbitrament of the sword. And since
war has been thus wantonly thrust upon us,
since we are so unjustifiably assailed, it does
not rest at our charge to ask for petico. The
enemy must offer terms of reparation for this
aggression before Nicaragua can consent to
any cessation of hostilities.
The proclamation of President Mora is a
regular piece of Buncombe, and would do cred
it to a backwoods lawyer. He says a great
many things he does not mean, and proposes
teats he has no idea of accomplishing. He is
a weak-President, something after Franklin
Pierce s model, and no doubt has a Minister
quite the counterpart of Mr. Moroy. Hut they
have waked up the wrong man—they have put
on airs in the wrong company. Gen. Walker
will learn them better manners, while lie im
poses upon their minds a serious lesson in pol
ities. Much will he the consequence of this
piece of parchment to Mr. Mora and his Secre
tary individually.
i'o Costa Rica, as a tuition, we cannot calcu
late the consequence. On her rests the blame,
and on her must fall the effects. This muell
we can say, however, that peaceful citizens
need apprehend no evil. The soldiers of Ni
caragua come to regenerate, not to destroy :
and while an energetic war will he waged
against the government of Costa lUca, private
property will be held sacred, and personal lib
erty protected as inviolable. The agitators,
however, who have set this war on foot, must
hold themselves responsible to anew and dif
ferent authority from any that ever judged
their delinquencies heretofore.
It lias been vaguely hinted that Americans
captured in battle by the enemy are to be sum
marily executed. The truth of this report we
must disbelieve, but we assure the army that the
General has determined on a fearful retribu
tion, in the event so inhuman a proceeding
should be attempted. Thefrightfulness of the
retaliation would makea gibbet of the State. —
Hut wc have no fears of so improbable a con
tingency, and only refer to it ns a rumor.
It is highly probable our army is to-day
within the bonders of Costa Rica, and in a few
days we shall hear of the capture ol’ Guana
costc.
Wo are informed that Gen. Walker, immedi
ately utter the declaration of war, attended ■’.oo
troops across the Lake to Virgin Hay that eve
ning, and that after waiting a day to secure
supplies, he sent 280 in a battalion of five
companies in Costa Rica, Colonel Schlcssingcr
Commanding, until Walker himself or General
llornsby should join hint. Major J. C. O'Neal
and Captain D. W. Thorp were the next in
command. At last advices the Nicaragua
troops had not even had a skirmish, but had
supplied themselves with horses, and oil the
21st instant they were to march for Ouana
coste.
An extra from the office of the < ,'eutral Ame
rican published at Ran Juan, dated March 15,
gives a translation of the declaration of war by
the President of Costa Rica, and adds thereto
the following :
War lias been declared against Nicaragua by
the Governmcntof Costa Rica, and 8,500 troops
are under way headed by Gen. Mora, the com
mander-in-chief.
Baron Bulow is in the field with five hun
dred men.
We are informed that the Transit Company
have been notified to stop running tlieir boats
upon the river, or Costa Rica will not be res
ponsible for the consequences.
On the part of Nicaragua, Gen. Walker has
despatched Maj. Schlessingcr to meet the Cos
ta Ricans.
Up to our going to press all kinds of exag
gerated reports arc made by the natives, upon
none of which we can safely rely.
The above is all the news we have as to the
war, which by the way, appears likely to in
volve all Central America, notwithstanding the
fact that only a few days previous to the de
claration of war by Costa Rica, if we may
judge from the tone of editorials in El Nicara
gueuese, no difficulty with Honduras or San
salvadov was apprehended.

The New Y ork Herald of Sunday contains
flic subjoined paragraph :
“About two years ago a negro woman nam
ed Diana, was purchased from her owner, S.
F. Gould, Esq.,'of Edgefield, South Carolina,
by abolitionists residing in this city. Among
tlie contributors to the fund for freeing her
was Rev. Henry AVard Beecher, whose rifle
practice lias gained him such notoriety lately.
Diana came to this city and nursed her mother
until she died, when, having no relatives or
friends here, and being outof employment, she
naturally enough desired to return to the home
of her childhood, where her husband and chil
dren are still living. Hearing that Col. M.
Frazer, a neighbor of her former master, was
in the city, she called upon him at the Astor
House, and piteously begged of him to take her
back to her old home, as she was heartily sick
of freedom, and yearned like St. Paul “for her
kindred after the flesh.” Col. Fazer consent
ed to do so. Before leaving for the South yes
terday, he brought her to the Herald office to
afford us another instance of the fact that a
sensible negro prefers slavery when it is asso
ciated with home comforts, to freedom such as
the blacks experience at the hands of the nig
ger worshippers at the North. Dianais a stout,
healthy woman, about forty years of age. She
was originally bought for $250, her owner free
ing her for less than her worth, at the solicita
tion of her well meaning but mistaken friends.”

‘Hie Key of the Gulf announces the arrival
at Key West on the 13th ult. of the barque
Sam Slick, from Fort Columbus, N. Y., with
184 recruits for the companies serving in Flor
ida. Twenty-seven of them for companies A,
M and E, Ist artillery, remained at Key West,
and the balance went on to Punta Rassa.
Those left at Key West went on to Fort Dallas,
Miami, on the l'Jtb, to reinforce the garrison
there. It is intended to employ the command
now at Fort Dallas, in scouting and in opera
ting against the Indians on the everglades.
A schooner arrived outlie 18th, after hav
ing conveyed companies C and E, 2d artillery,
to Pavillion Key, near the Big Cypress. It is
the intention of Col. Monroe to establish a de
pot on this side of the Cypress, from which the
troops may operate in that region.
It is stated that the command stationed at
Fort Deynard is under orders to penetrate the
Big Cypress from the landside, and it is hoped
that these operations may drive the Indians
from their stronghold.
The U. R. revenue cutter Sea Drift, Lieut.
Randolph, arrived from the Miami on the 18th
nit. No signs of Indians have been seen in
that neighborhood for some time past. The
buildings abandoned by the settlers at Miami
have not been disturbed, and it is thought the
Indians have retired to the Big Cypress.

The Wants of the Ages.
It is a man’s destiny still to be longing for
something, and the gratification of one set of
wishes but prepares the unsatisfied soul for
the conception of another. The child of a
year old wants little but food and sleep ; and
no sooner is lie supplied with a sufficient al
lowance of either of those very excellent tilings
than ho begins whimpering, and yelling it may
he, for the other. At three, the urchin In
come enamored of sugar plums, apple pie and
confectionery. At six, h,s imagination runs
to kites, marbles and tops, and an abundance
ol play time. At ten, the boy wants to leave
sehool. and have uothingtodo hut bird-nesting
and blackberry hunting. At fifteen, he wants
‘ir ii- nml luou stftclic, a watch and a pair of
Wellington boots. At twenty, he wishes to
cut a figure and ride horses; sometimes his
tbnst lor display breaks out iutu dandyism,
and sometimes in poetry ; he wants sadly to
be lu love and takes it for granted ti nt nlftlie
ladies are dying for him. The young man of
twenty-five wants a wife; and at thirty he
longs to be single again. Front thirty to* for
ty lie wants to he rich, and thinks more of ma
,9 ,no " c .v than spending it. About this time
lie dabbles m politics and wants office. At
fifty he wants excellent dinners and wine, and
considers a nap in the afternoon indispensable.
The respectable old gentleman of sixty wants
to retire trout business with a snug independ
ence of three or tour hundred thousands, to
many his daughters, and set up his sons, and
live in the country; and then for the rest of
bis days lie wauts to be young agaiu.

Sevierville in Ruins!
Wc learn, as our paper is about going to
press, says the Knoxville Register, the start
ling intelligence that the town of Seviervillc
was almost entirely destroyed by fire on Tues
day last. The fire, we understand, originated
in the residence of Mr. Duggan, Sheriff of the
county, and only ceased its work, with the
destruction of the jail, Court House, store
houses—in short, the whole town exeept three
or four buildings. There was but one person
in jail—a man committed last week—and he
was burned to death—every effort to rescue
him having proved unavailing.
This is an instance of desolation by fire, un
paralleled in the history of the State. Our in
formation is too direct, to permit its to doubt
its truth.
