The method of tho Magistrates who conducted the Investigation of the Lyon- Moioik* case, as well as the manner In which Mr.Creushaw, the Reporter for the Court, performed his arduous duties, are worthy of notice and commendation. The Court was composed entirely of young men—not ‘‘learned in the law,” it la true, but who, throughout the whole trial, ex hibited the soundest judgment and most patient attention. Their decisions, upon the many delicate questions submitted lor their considera tion, were fair,’impartial and firm; and the rendition of their judgment, involving * much, reflected credit upon Justice George A. Hays, who delivered it, Mr. Crenshaw'4 report; was rapid and accurate. The trial was held in the old Russell Court House—the scene of so many, but never before so monstrous a disclosure, of human depravity, For anything fa Groceries, Provisions Groin, at "rock bottom, ** prices call <>„ 3. ft.

As wo announced in yesterday's issue, Mrs. Lyon, charged with the murder of her husband in Russell county, Ala., was committed to jail without the benoilt of ball. The decision of tho Magistrates was rendered Thursday morning at 4 o’clock, About 9 o’clock the same morning prepa rations were made to convey Mrs. Lyon to the jail situated at Seale, Ala. She preferred to go in her carriage: so It was agreed by the officers that she should go that way. Her carriage was brought to tho door, and in It she was seated—she upon the back seat, her mother beside her and her little daughter In front. Mr. Da vie, her fat her, drove the carriage. On each side of the carriage was a couple of the guard; while In the rear of the car riage Melnlka walked, handcuffed, and guarded by two bailiffs. In this wise the cortogo moved from Crawford to Seale, fourteen miles distant. ARRIVAL AT BEALE. When tho prisoners arrived at Seale it was late In tho evening. Quite a crowd had gathorod to see them, and especially to catch a glimpse of Mrs. Lyon, charged with the murder of her husband. The cu riosity of the crowd was .not long grati fied. The Jail was reached and the prison ers placed In their quarters. Melnlka takes his chances with tho other prisoners conllned there. Mrs. Lyon has a coll to herself. We learn slio was made quite oomfortable. it Is right and proper, and only paying a just regard to morals, that women prisoners should have a separate cell, no matter who they are; and we are glud to note that the officials of Russell county provided Mrs. Lyon with a com fortable room. No matter how heinous her crime, she Is entitled to the considera tion due a woman. True chivalry comes up to tho anecdoto told on Talley rond, when lie was seen lifting his hat arid bowing. His companion asked him at what he was bowing, and he pointed at a pair of petticoats hanging on a clothes line. So wo say, woman has her rights, no rr alter who she is. IN JAIL. Mrs. Lyon is in jail at Sealo. Her coun sel, Col. Samford, will sue out a writ of habeas corpus before Judge O'Neal, Judge of Frobate, asking him to assent to a bail for her. As yet no step has been taken, but probably ittwill bo done early in next week, Mr. and Mrs. Davis, and tho bright lit tle child of Mrs. Lyon, left her in jail, and returned to a sorrowful home. Mrs. Lyon was only affected when she went into jail; previous to tills she has shown no trepi dation. MI HtOtiEE NUPKIUOR COURT. FRIDAY- NOV. 24—NINTH DAY. Court met pursuant to adjournment.

OOBONBR’a VKBDIOT “FROM DISEASE AND EXPOSURE.” Yesterday morning Mr. Munro came into the city as usual, and on his way saw lying near the road a white man. He savr he was dead, and when he arrived in tho oity reported tho fact to Coroner Lloyd. Mr. Lloyd repaired to tho spot, and found doad a man by tho name of Isham Bivins. He was lying about three miles east of Columbus, and just this side of Taylor’s creek. Asa singular fact he was found dead at the very place on the road called ’’haunted hollow,” and where the superstitious claim to see ghosts of dark nights. Mr. Lloyd summoned a corouer’s jury composed of Thomas Stone as foreman, and Moses Taylor, George Adams, Au gustus Howard, H. H. Thornton, and M. F. Munro. They viewed tho dead body, and upon the evidence of Mr. Munro, rendered a verdlot that the deceased came to his death from DISEASE AND EXPOSURE. The Coroner had his remains brought to the city, and from his office to-day will be interred in the city cemetery. THE DECEASED was about forty years of age, and had been about the city selling some kind of prize candy boxes. This did not pay him, aud he became an object or charity. On his person was found a letter from the City Physician, Dr. Flewellen, addressed to Mr. Bradford, Trustee of the Poor-house, ask ing that he be sent there, as ho was not a city pauper and not entitled to the bene fits of the city hospital. Another letter was found on his person, written by a gentleman of the city to a city officer urging him to have him placed in the hospital, as fa the “coming election he would make a good voter." He had, however, been sent to the County Poor house, and having tired of staying there was making his way Into town. THE CAUSE of his immediate death is about this: He started into the city Thursday evening late. In crossing Taylor’s creek he must have fallen into it, and iwas too wet and cold to travel. He laid down by the road side, and as Thursday night was a very cold night, he simply djed from tho ex posure, being already weak from disease.

Monday evening lovers of opera will have the pleasure of witnessing the per formance of “Maritana” by the Caroline Riching-Bornard Troupe. This company Is spoken of in the highest terms by the press everywhere, and at each city where It has perforformed it has been greeted by crowded houses. Tho Charleston News und Courier thus speaks of the company: “Martha” at the Academy.— “A thing of beauty is a joy forever.” There are beauties of melody and pleasing colors, as it were, of sound. Who that once has hoard the light and charming witchery of Flotow’s opera of Maitha can ever forget it ? or will not delight to hear it repeated again, and yet. again ? Such was the priv ilege of the music-levlng public lastjnight. The Academy, we are pleased to be able to say, was well filled, and Mrs. Bernard had tho satisfaction of seeing that the good people of Charleston had not forgot ten her, nor the rich musical banquets she was wont to spread for them when here in former years. There was a goodly number of people, representatives of ail classes, and all had evidently come to en joy the programme of melody promised them. Martha and Nancy had the floor, and Tilden and Hayes, for the nonce, were both forgotten; and it was worth not a little to got away from politics, if only for two hours and a half. However, to return to our fair heroine. Mrs. Bernard looks as well as over, and we are not sure that she is not improved invoice. Her play throughout was excel celent, but her singing was, we think, even better than her actiug. Her sec ond, Miss Moore, sang admirably, and acted with all the sprightliness of the ideal “Nancy.” Mr. Henry Gates did the sentimental “Lionel” in regulation Btyle. He has a good teuor voice, and some of his solos were very pleasingly rendored. Mr. Be nitz, the basso, was In good voice.and the duet of bass and tenor in the first act was sung with great spirit, and was loudly ap plauded and encored. The quartettes wont off uolformily woll, and earned much applause. The chorus at first seemed harsh, but gradually got better and, till by the close of the fourth act it came to be a very respectable chorus indeed, and was vociferously applauded. The audience throughout seemed de lighted, and it Is, of course, needless to say this was especially tho case when Mrs. Riohlngs-Bernard sang “The Last Rose of Summer.” This never fails to bring down the house. She threw her whole soul into this lovely ballad, and sang it with great sweetness and expres sion. Our community are highly favored in having this well appointed company offer ing them such a fine series of English op eras. Lively Trade. From a number of our merchants we learn that trade yesterday was particu larly good in comparison with the dull days preceding. A large number of stran gers were in the city from Florida and down the river. We are glad to see this trade coming to Columbus, and we hope our merchants will foster and protect it. We have done our part in making known the advantages of Columbus as a market by sending an agent through that section In search of subscribers. Our paper in consequence is largely circulated in Florida and the low er river, and advertisements in onr col umns will be read by those who trade in Columbus. ‘Mo Hint. The report was spread yesterday morn ing that tho negroes were rioting in “Utah,” and messengers were despatched for the Sheriff of the county. Mr. Burrus went to the reported scene of action, and found that it was a false alarm and no earthly ground for sech a report. Two negro men had gotten together in a hot fisticuff, and In the meelee a window in an adjoining house was broken. Upon the appearance of the Sheriff the aggress or tied, and the other negro had "dun nuthin’."

Sully, at Fort Vancouver, a young and handsome girl, whose name we suppress for obvious rea sons. There has also been employed, as cook and general servant, a Chinaman, who Is described as being a smart fellow, and in personal appearance far above the average of his race. Evidences of affec tion have of late often been noticed be tween the two, but it was passed off as a Soke, and nothing serious thought of the matter till one day last week, when both the girl and the Chinaman were missing. Upon inquiry it was ascertained that they had come over to this city together by steamer. Here all trace of them was lost, and It is supposed they took overland passago for California. Tho mother of the young lady is In great distress over her daughter’s departure and disgrace, and we understand has left for San Fran cisco in quest of the fugitives. Widows. From Burl Now Yorker. | Winter-kept apples, seasoned wine, a clouded meerschaum, a vase around which the scont of the roses still hangs, all these have a rare, ripe, evanescent fla vor that suggest, but can not express, the charm of the widow. A young widow is, perhaps, the most interesting object in nature—or in art. She represents expe rience without its wrinkles or its gray hairs. She has matronly beauty and maidenly freedom combined. She is grief with a laughing eye- sorrow in a house of festival—a silver moon in a sable cloud She is too sweet for anything! Like all good things, she can only be created at a great sacrifice. Mrs. Browning says a man must bo pretty thoroughly spoiled beforejhe can leave a widow. This black swan—this mournful Phoenix—rises only out of the funeral urn that holds the ashes of a husband’s heart. Eet us wipe away the briny tear and proceed. Perdite. Pieruks. Poets, states men, heroes and philosophers have each felt the indefinable influence of widow hood. Its quality is not strained. It falls alike upon the just and unjust. Edward Plantagnet married the widow Elizabeth Gray, though ho knew she brought civil war for her dowry. Ned Walker, Joe Ad dison, Sam Johnson, George Washington, Napoleon Bonaparte, John Wesloy, Tony Weller, Ben Disraeli and all the boys mar ried widows. Henry VIII. was so fond of them that he took two; and King David was so pleased with Abigail, the widow of Nabai, whom he took to wife, that he turned Bathsheba into a widow on pur pose to marry her.

D.t InsKuxinc was frozen over for two months. In 508 the rivers of England were fro ion over for two months.* In 598 the Black Sea was coverod With Ice for twenty days, and 768 the Ice was 80 toet thick. In 721 the Elbe, Danube and Seine wore frozon for four weeks. In 1323 the Mediterranean was entirely frozen. In 1405 Tamerlane made an excursion into China and lost his men, horses and camels by the excessive cold. In 1420 Paris experienced so great cold that the city was dopopulatedknd animals fed on corpses in the streets. In 1443 at Paris, snow fell forty days and nights incessantly. In 1469, In Franco and Germany, wine was frozen so bard that it was cut in blocks and sold by weight. In 1570 the intense cold lasted three months and all the fruit trees of Provtnoo and Languedoc were destroyed. In 1607 provisions and food became so scarce on account of the cold in Paris, that a small bundle of kindting brush cost forty cents. The cattle froze at their stalls and the Heine could be crossed by heavy carts. In 1709 tho cold was so intense all over Europe that mass could not be said for many weeks in certain provinces, because tho wine oould not bo kept in a fluid state. In 1735, in Chinese Tartary, the ther mometer fell ninety-seven degrees below zero, Fahienheit. The winter of 1740 was of such rigor in Russia that an ice palaco was constructed at St. Petersburg fifty-one feet long and seventeen feet wide.

A. •*U *lt River.” The origin of the expression, “up Salt river,” as applied to a defeated political party, was as follows: Davy Crockett, the famous Kentucky Congressman, a Whig candidate, was chal lenged by his Democratic opponent to meet Idm on the stump hi joint discussion. Croekdtt accepted, and the day and place were fixed, but Crockett did not. appear, and tho people thinking him afraid to do so rallied for his opponent and elected him. It afterwards turned out that Crock ett, who had started for tho plaeo in a ca noe propelled by a negro, had been landed in the forest at the head waters of Sait river, by hl6 treacherous guide, who then swiftly paddled off down the stream. Crockett was too good a hunter to starve In the wilderness, but he was totally un bblo to reach the appointed place in time, and he gave It up, and with it his chance of election. Hence the phrase “Up Salt River”—meaning that the party is hope lessly defeated. Crockett, however, was more lucky two years afterwards, being elected by a handsome majority. Vagrant Cats, Moore of the constitutionalist appears to his readers the following humane re ceipt for thinning out the feline race : —A friend to vagrant cats offers the following humane recipe for thinning out the feline population : “First, have set out scraps of food in your yard, and by watching, you will soon see the cat stealthily creep in, snatch a morsel and run. Each day, if not disturbed, it will get more familiar, and in the course of two or three weeks it will venture into the house and allow itself to be handled’ It can then be placed in a box large enough to turn round in and not feel stifled. Then, for a grown cat, put two table spoonfuls of best chloroform on a handful of cotton batting. Put in the cat first, shutting the lid of the trunk, then open the lid wide enough to slip in the chloroformed cotton and immediately close it.” Monething Sice.
