COLUMBUS: Wednesday Morning, April 1, 1857. I.AIKJKHT CITY CIRCVLATIOI. The Knquirer of yesterday morning, con tained a short valedictory of Mr. John H. Martin, on retiring from the editorial charge of that paper, a poet ho has filled for the last ten months, with marked ability. Mr. M. has our best wishes for his prosperity in whatever avocation he may engage, lie has few supe riors as an editor. Leo Acquitted. It is slated iu a dispatch from Washington, that the t rial of Dnndridge 0. Lee, for the kill ing of Hume a short time ago, in that city, wan brought to a close on Saturday last, and resulted in a verdict of acquittal. The Nicaraguan Cause. (’apt. H. liynum, of (Jen. Walker’s Army, arrived in our city yesterday, ami will remain several days, it is his intention to address our citizens on Monday night, tith instant, on Nic araguan affairs, when he proposes to give an account of the country, its prospects, Scc. Ho desires to raise an emigrating company of such men as are willing to go to Nicaragua and brave the dangers of sustaining a stable go vernment, planted upon republican principles. AH who desiro to make Nicaragua their home, will do well to attend. A small admission fee will be charged at the door, with a view of raising a fund to assist the emigrants. • ‘apt. liynum having gone through the cam paign with Walker, and seen much of the coun try, is ftblo to give valuable information of its soil and products, and something of the luxu ries and hardships of the warrior’s camp ser vice ♦ Freebooters. We are sorry to see that several of our ex changee, among which aro the Lumpkin Plain dealer, New Orleans True Delta, and Nownan Hlade, aro copying the contributions of “ Dr. I’illshury,” written expressly for the Daily Sun, and giving no credit therefor. This, we trust, is a profitable though petty system of pillage on their part. It is human nature, however, for brainless giants to take away auy thing lillijmtians may rightfully own. It is an easy matter to have a large paper, and pub lish it below living prices, when you can be furnished with all you want at the expense of others. There aro giants in theso days—ami diminutive individuals must suffer; in other words, the “fcigfish will eat the little ones.” Deliver us from those who act upon the princi ple of “what is yours is mine, and what is mine, is mine own.’’ So mote it be. . Speedy Transportation. The freight shipped by the steamship Amer ica on her last trip from New Orleans to Apa laohicola, was unloaded on the steamboats, and delivered at its destination in less than one week's time. This is what is deemed quick work ou low water. We are quick people in every way, save in railroad transportation. Bailroad Depot Burnt. We learn from the Charleston Courier, that the Railroad station house, at Oourdin’s Turn Out, on the North Eastern Railroad, was burned, with its contents, on Saturday 21st ult. There was an unusual quantity of goods stored in the building, and the loss is very con siderable. Messrs. Kelly & Ridgill, of Man ning, estimate their lossat SIO,OOO. The Star says that the fire was the work of a burglar. A Nicaraguan Bumor. The Petersburg Express learnß that it is re ported in Washington that the Government has received lengthy dispatches from Nicaragua, which will lead to au early recognition of the Minister and Government of Walker, and the speedy re-establishment of the Nicaraguan route. The exact purport of these dispatches has not trauspired, but it is uuderstood that President Buchanan holds the opinion that it is the duty of this Government to maintain open the communication by the Sail Juan route to the Pacific. The aid which the Brit ish have furnished the Costa Ricans in closing the Nicaraguan route, is contrary to their treaty engagements with this country, and Mr. liuchanan won’t stand it. Marion and Cahaba Bail Boad. We learn from the Commonwealth, that the final survey of the Marion and Cahaba Rail Road, was completed by the Eugineer on Wednesday last. The Commonwealth says the extension of the road to Cahaba is a fixed fact, and that the whole road will be putuuder con tract as soon us the Board of Direotors aot up on the Report of tho Engineer. The comple tion of the road to Cahaba will bo hailed with joy by every citizen at all interested In tho completion of the road to the Alabama river ; and the citizens of Cahaba and vicinity deserve much praise for the active exertions used by them in securing ample means to complete the road to their thriving town. Floked Up. On information furnished by telegraph, Gus McGibbony picked up at the wharf in Mont gomery, on Saturday evoning last, just before the departure of the St. Charles, on which the gentleman was about to take his departure, one J. B. L. Manson, alias Rives, charged with stealing a horse and buggy in Hawkinsvillc, Ga., and turniug the same iuto travelling mo ney at Macon. Tho Messenger says he “own ed up” to McGibbony, ou being arrested, say ing that he stole the horse and buggy in Haw kinsville, Georgia, and sold them in Macon.— He also stated that he was a gambler, and that, previous to bis stealing the aforesaid horse and buggy, be had lost all his money, and that the man from whom he stole them, won it. He pleaded this in justification, but it will hardly “go down” in a Georgia court of justice; and as McGibbony left with him fur that State on Saturday night, he will doubtless soon occupy quarters provided for bis class at the beauti ful red-gully town of Milledgeville. ’ How long did Adam remain in Paradise be fore he sinned ?” said an amiable spouse to her hueband. “ Till he got a wife,” calmly an swered the husband. For the Daily Hun. “Through a Glass, Darkly ” Messrs. Editors: —I found the following let ter on my desk this morning—perhaps you can explain it: “Dear Sir: —l am a stranger—arrived yes terday—have never seen a town before. I put up at what they told me was the best House iu the city, but think they must have been mis taken. The waiters had a great deal to do at the ends of the room and rushed past me And over one auother, as though there was a great fire raging and they were banding the buckets. After dinner l went out to see the city and people. Something approached me which strongly resembled an inverted wedge on roll ers. It was a lady ! She must have had a disease of the head, for there was a small but thick plaster of ostrich feathers and white sa tin ou the hack edge of it. From her shoul ders to below where her waist ought to have been, she wore a sort of wrapper; and below that, her form enlarged downwards like u hen with her chickens under her, only that she seemed to have them iu a coop, for I plainly saw some of the bars. I don’t think she had any feet—l did uot see any—l don’t think L ever saw a woman so much deformed. AH the residences appeared to be buried one story in the ground, though I could not find any mode of entrance to the first floor. Iu the evening I went to the Masonic Ball, where 1 saw the greatest number and fullest assortment of people I ever met. There was a variety of music and multitudinous dancing. At twelve o’clock the industrial exhibition opened, and some of the Goddesses proved rbat they did not live on ambrosia alone. Everybody was thought of, nnd even the little ones at home were not forgotten. ‘‘At last 1 went home, and this morning I de termined to enquire of a friend what could have been the cause of my meeting with such curi ous sights. “Yours, very anxiously, “ CAROLINE NEWCOMER.” I will send you my answer next time. Yours, kc., M. Later from Texas. Arrivalsof the steam ships Atlantic and Dan iel Webster bring us later advices from Texas. The Atlantic brought 5J5“7'>,j84 in specie. The Galveston dates are to the 17th. Preparations are being made in the eastern part of Texas for a large crop. Cotton will bo planted by the first. A large quantity of wheat, the cultivation of which is growing into gener al favor, will be sown this year. The small pox was prevailing iu Western Texas and the borderingJMexican towns. The State has very generally been suffering for want of rain, llain, however, has recently fallen in showers in many places. Grass is green on tho prairies, and trees are putting on their foliage anew. Ninety-three counties heard from give Ro berts 4,004 for Associate Justice, Gray 4,351 ; eighteen are yet to hear from. The Galveston News publishes “ a commu nication giving what purports to be a mortgage of the Houston (Galveston and Red River) Railroad, and all its lands, privileges, Slc., for a loan of one million of dollars, as a matter of interest to tho stockholders and parties direct ly concerned.” The mortgage is to Azariah C. Flagg and C. E. Habicht, and bears date January Ist, 1854, and was only recently dis covered on record in Anderson, Grimes county, “where tho eye of the public would not be like ly to look for such a document.” It has cre ated considerable excitement. The Indians have been committing new de predations near San Antonio. A Mr. Braden had all his liorsos stolen. On the other hand, Lieut. Wood, of Fort Mason, lately surprised a party of warriors near the north fork of the Concho, killing three and taking two prisoners. The San Antonio Ledger, 15th inst.,speaks of severe frosts, but corn was uninjured. The well known Bill Johnson wa9 arrested near Waoo, on the 9th inst., but not till he had received several shots. The Columbia Democrat, of the 17th inst., notices a severe frost, doing serious injury to corn. The cane also, which had a fine start, was killed down, but will probably come up again. The Houston Telegraph, of the 18th, says: “ No doubt cotton will have to be planted over, as well as a good deal of the corn. We dread to bear from the wheat region. At this sea son much of the wheat must have been jointed, awl if so, this untimely frost will be the death of it. As for cotton and corn, if there is plen ty of seed in the country, it is full early enough to plant yet, and secure good crops.” From the Rio Grande there is no political news of importance. The Brownsville Flag, 12th inst., speaks of refreshing rains, and says a full crop of corn is now assured The Brazos Statesman says of the wheat crop : “Never in any country, North or South, have we seeu the crops of wheat more promis ing. Every acre sown covers the ground now, and much of it will hide a mule rabbit, aud should tho present favorable weather continue, harvesting will commence early in May. We will no longer look beyond home for our sup ply of fiour after this. A Valuable Discovery. TheN. O. Bulletin says among the innumer able valuable productions which enterprise and energy have developed iu the State of Georgia, wo notice one, that in time will be classed among the most practically useful. We allude to the discovery of various clays in the vicinity of thecity of Augusta, which constitutea valua ble indestrutnble paint for external work. Fif teen samples of these clays were submitted to the examination of Dr. Thomas Antisell, of the Smithsonian Institute at Washington, oue of the most eminent aualytioal chemists in the coun try, and without a superior in that branch of chemistry embracing the analysis of soils, etc. The specimens we have seen, embrace dif ferent shades of browns, yellow and drabs. The report of Dr. Antisell, highly recommends six of these specimens as suitable for the pur poses of an indestructible paiut. The other speoimens will also make very good paint. Some of these clays are apmirably adapted for smooth bodied paints, from tbeir chemioal con struction aud trifling absorption of water, the power of absorbing moisture determining the unfitness of the material for out door paint. The discovery of these clays will be a great ac quisition in the arts ; and we learn that the owner of the ground in the vicinity of Augusta, Mr. Crmille E. Guardy, desigus bringing them before the public. Death in the Green Boom. On Saturday eveniug, while one of the largest and most brilliant audiences ever seen iu Amer ica was enjoying the splendid performance of Lindt di Dhimouni in the Philadelphia Academy of Music, there was a scene of startling con trast behind the curtAin. Avery worthy mem ber of the female chorus, Madame Louisa Loculill, whose services, from her long exper ience, were very valuable, died suddenly in the Green Room, just as the opera was about to begin, of disease of the heart. It was a shock ing and solemn incident, and created a great deal of agitation among the performers, espe cially among the choristers, who had so long been associated with her and accustomed to follow her directions in the performances Attempt to Arrest a Fugitive Slave. No little excitement, mingled with not a lit tle indignation in certain quarters, has existed in our city for a day or two past, and particu larly yesterday, on account of the arrival ot : two Virginians, as is alleged, in purguit of a colored man, whom they state to be a slave. The Virginians nrrived in our city on Monday, and very quietly took quarters in the Tremont House. After going through the usual pros pecting tours, in order to make sure ot their prey, they procured a warrant, with a view of securing his arrest. The alleged slave has been in this vicinity for ten years, nnd for sometime past has been a servant in the em ployment of Geo. B. Blake, one of our heavy brokers, who resides in Brookline. The Vigi lance Committee having been informed of the movements of the Southerners, took early : measures to cut off their plans, which they did, j by making a hasty visit to Brookline and in forming the young man of Lis danger. He at first discredited the reports brought to him, but on being pressed to secure his safety, act ed upon their advice, made all necessary pre parations, and yesterday was ticketed on the underground railway for Canada. He is, by this time, safely in Montreal. His pursuers visited the house of Mr. Blake a few hours af ter he left, but were decidedly unable to find him. Os ccurse they got no very reliable in formation as to his whereabouts. They were iu “pursuit” of “knowledge” under greater “difficulties” than they had anticipated.—Bos ton Bee. American Marbles. In West Rutland, Vermont, marble is ob tained which has no superior for sculpture in the world, and some of it hqs been exported to Rome, ordered by Italian sculptors; it has a fine grain, and works beautifully under the chisel. In Great Barrington, in that State, there is a flexible marble, which bends like a bow when wet. Black marble equal to that of Ireland is found in New York, and verd an tique is found in many districts, and in every State, in almost every variety. This latter article, on careful chemical examination, has been found to have for its basis an indefinite mixture of serpentine and greenish white talc; with a silicate of alumina and protoxyde of iron and manganese, which serves to render it compact and probably imparts much of the green color. Some specimens contain also ae tinolite, with talc firmly united, so as to pre sent a close texture and considerable resist ance to fracture. The portion of chrome iron ore in erystaline grains varies in different specimens, but it is never large enough to se riously interfere with the operations of sawing and polishing. Bunaway and Suicide. The particulars of one of the most unac countable suicides have just come to our knowl edge. Two servants of Jones, proprietor of Union Hall, in this city, one a yellow man named Levi, and the other black, named Allen, ranaway on Sunday night last. It appears that they intended to get into the night train for Chattanooga, but arrived a moment too late. They took the track on foot, and pro ceeding a few miles, secreted themselves until Monday night in a thicket. They then ap peared at Antioch when the night train came along, and the yellow man purchased tickets for himself and servant for Chattanooga. The trick was not detected—Levi passed as a white man, and took his supper at the same table with the other passengers, ordering food for his servant at a side table. The attention of Mr. Charles Fox, merchant of this city, who was on board, on his way to New York, was attracted to Levi, and after a little .scrutiny, he recognized him, though disguised in a fine suit of clothes. Mr. Fox, on Tuesday morning before reaching Chattanooga, questioned Levi, and becoming satisfied that he was running away, collared him and intimated that he was a prisoner. Levi was wrapped in a blanket, and he managed to draw a pistol from his breast without the movement being noticed, and turn ing the muzzle upon his abdomen fired and fell on his seat. Mr. Fox and other passengers fled in an opposite direction, under the im pression that he was firing at when they turned back he hai drawn a*owie-knife and cut his throat, and was a corpse. His companion, Allen, was arrested aud brought home. Allen says that Levi was to have been joined at Chattanooga by a disrepu table woman from this city, who was to travel with him as his wife, while Allen was cast for the more humble position of servant. Levi had about SBO in money aud a good wardrobe. Allen says ho had provided his female friend with fine clothes, a good pistol and anew trunk. Levi was an excellent servant, always obedi ent and tractable, and unusually intelligent.— Mr. Jones is of opinion that the tale of Allen is true, as he thinks Levi would not have left unless seduced by some strong inducements. We understand that these boys were seen at the Depot, aud going back and forth ou Sun day night, with baggage, but no suspicion was excited. The Conductor was excusable, we presume, in suffering himself to be imposed upon, as the occurrence took place at night, and Levi played his part with great sang froid. —Nashville Banner. New Constitution in lowa. The lowa State Constitutional Convention, which had been in session at lowa city, ad journed ou the 4th, after forming anew Con stitution for approval or rejection by the peo ple. It provides for biennial legislative ses sions. On the year of a Presidential election the members are chosen on the day of that election—on other years on tho second Tues day of October. Members receive three dol lars a day, end three dollars for every twenty miles’ travel going to and returning from the session. The Senate shall notcousist of more than fifty members, nor the House of more than one hundred. The Governor is to hold office for two years instead of four, as in the old Constitution. A State bank and branches may be established ; ail the branches shall be held liable for the failure of any one of them, and in case of failure bill holders shall be pre ferred over other creditors. Evory stockhold er in any banking corporation shall be person ally liable for all its debts. The seat of go vernment is permanently fixed, in the Consti tution, at Fort Desmoines, and the State Uni versity at lowa city. There was a great ! struggle by the Republicans to strike out the word “ white ” as a qualification for voters, in ! order to place negroes upon an equality with the whites, but the proposition was defeated by i six majority. The New York Legislature. The Tribune says that one hundred thousand dollars has been sent to Albany to be used to procure the defeat of the bill remodeling the government of New York city. This would in dicate that the Black Republican marjority of the Legislature ore not considered quite as pure as it was thought desirable that Ctesar’s wife should be. The “blacks” have a large ma jority in both branches, the bill is their pet, because designed to break dowu the Demo cratic asceudency in the “Empire City.” And yes it is believed that money enough, properly api’i ej, will be fatal to the measure !

The sales of cotton to-day foot up sixteen hundred bales at advancing rates. Middling Fair 14c. The Washington Union says that one of the gold fish in the Capitol reservoir, was caught near the surface of the water at the commence ment of the cold weather, was frozen in the ice, and remained in a torpid state until the warm weather in February released it from its icy prison, when after lying ou the surface upon its side for a while, a slight motion commenced in its side fins, which continued to increase until it slowly moved oft to join its more com fortable fellows below the reach of the frost.
