IP-low we give the Section of the Ordinance unani mously adopted by the Mayor and Board of Aider men of the City'of Greenesboro’, to regulate Gro ceries and Tippling Shops within the corporate limits of said City. Doubtless the Retailers of Greenesboro’ consider it rather a “tight paper Whiskey Barrels begin to groan in view of tho chances of having their heads “caved in,” or bot toms “knocked out,” and Rum Suckers who have hung around these filthy pools likeShylocks round putrified bodies begin to look ghastly pale as they see the “good stuff” about to be abolished.

AJAX. Columbus, April 22, 185 GI \ t The Homicide in Sparta. “ Many incorrect accounts have been reported and published relative to the unfortunate difficulty in Sparta, which terminated in the death of Mr. Gard ner. A friend who has an opportunity of learning I tiie facts, lias kindly furnished us with the follow | ing correct statement: “The peace of our community was much disturb ed on Tuesday morning last, and gloom still per vades our midst, caused by the violent death of Mr. Burton R. Gardner, lately a resideutofour town, but more recently of Mifledgeville. The circum stances attending his death, as far as I • can learn, are these: Mr. Oliver J. Powell went immediately after breakfast, by appointment with the deceased, to the Carriage shop of Messrs. H. B. & B. R. Gard ner, to have a settlement of an account which he held against the firm; in the course of the settle ment, an altercation arose between him and the j Messrs. Gardners, when blows ensued, Mr. Powell ! being knocked down cried “murder” loud enough to be heard by Mr. C. C. Skrine and Mr. John H. Saunders, who were at work in the Carriage shop of Messrs. Powell & Skrine, across the street. They immediately ran to his relief, and upon entering the shop found Mr. Powell upon the floor and both of the Gardners on him. They succeeded in pulling them off, when a general struggle ensued, that is between Skrine and Saunders and the Gardners. Mr. Powell, in .the meantime, having recovered from the floor and the deceased having freed him self. made at Mr. Powell v. ith a piece of dressed timber, and struck him, inflicting a severe wound upon his head. Mr. Powell reeling drew a revolver and shot him three times, one shot entering the left breast, struck a rib, and glanced into the right lung, causing death immediately. Mr. Horace B. Gardner, Sen., was severely cut in ; the left arm, but is, I understand, recovering. Mr. Powell was immediately arrested by the Sher iff, and yesterday had his trial for commitment be fore Judge Thomas of the Superior Court. Messrs. Stephens & Johnson and T. C. Aiidas, Esq., were engaged for the defence, and Judge Cone and C. W. Dußose, Esq. for tho prosecution, the trial last ed from 11 o’clock ir’ the morning to 9 at night, when Mr. Powell was set at liberty upon his giving bond of $2,500 for his appearance at the August term of our Superior Court. Mr. Saunders is also under arrest, charged with having stabbed Mr. 11. B. Gardner, Sen, I regret to write of so sad an affair, occuring in our commu nity, generally so quiet and peaceful.” Receipts.

We understand that a little girl named Trask, connected with one of the Primary Schools in Bos ton, died a day or two since from excess of exertion in jumping the rope. It is said that she jumped about two hundred times without stopping. She was immediately after taken ill and diod the next day. This is not the first death from the same cause which we have had occasion to record, and should be a warning to children not to indulge in excessive exercise. —Boston Journal . Fearful Riot at Panama. Thirty Americans Killed and Twenty Wounded! One of the most frightful butcheries and robberjes of Americans took place at Panama on the ni b| of the 15th ofAprH. On the afternoon of that day the passengers per steamer Illinois arrived at the Rail road Depot at Panama on their way to the steanSer J. L. Stephens, but owing to the low tide they were detained on shore. A portion of the passengers |y the Cortes from San Francisco, were also stopping at the several hotels in the vicinity of the depot. — There could not have been less than 1,000 or. 1,300 Americans congregated about the Railroad fenninijs. About sunset a difficulty occurred between one of the Illinois passengers and one of themegroes, which was freely joined by friends on both sides, and a general row now commenced. Pistols, bowie knives, swords, muskets, clubs, and rocks were freely used and with deadly effect. The Americans were gen erally unarmed, having only a few small revolvers, and, consequently, after a short struggle, had to yield the ground. The natives were re-inforced by iarge numbers. They now made at attack upon the different hotels and drove all the inmates out, many of whom sought safety, as they supposed, in the de pot building. About this time the Police (God save the term!) was-called in requisition; but instead of attempting to restore order, it is positively known that a portion of them joined the negroes and made the assault up on the depot. The police and negret-s fired upon the crowd, and drove every man, woman and child, from the building, who, in their fright, ran in every direction—some to the boats, and others to the thick 1 brush and woods, where they remained during the I night, and with the expectation of being murdered when daylight appeared. A large number were for tunate enough to get on board of the small steamer, and were conveyed to the J. L. Stephens. After the natives had accomplished their work of death, and dispersed all from the ground, they commenced plundering the baggage, and destroying everything to be found in the hotels. The passengers, in their sudden flight, left and lost everything. After plun dering all to be found in the hotels, the black mob attacked the Depot building, which contained a large amount of luggage and treasure, all of which the ras cals obtained. They then commenced to tear up the railroad track, and to pull down the telegraph poles, and destroyed both railroad and telegraph of fices. They were aware that the Express goods would be brought over from Aspinwall that night, and had laid their plans to seize them. They tore up the track in the vicinity of the depot, in order that the engine might run off; but through the ex ertions of Mr. Williams, a conductor on the road,) the Express train was stopped by his signals before reaching the fatal point, and the lives of those o i board and the goods were saved, and the train put back to Aspinwall, where it remained at the time the Philadelphia sailed. I have no means of knowing the number killed and wounded. There were twenty-five Americans found dead immediately around the depot in the morning, most of whom were passengers from the Cortez, hut this number is probably not half that were murdered. Os the number of natives killed, but little could be ascertained ;Jbut few, compara tively, I think, were slain. During the night some scattering Americans were picked up from time to time by the police, and es corted to the gates of the city, but with the requisi tion of from $5 to S2O dollars each for so doing, and in several instances they were robbed of all the mo ney, watches, and other effects found upon their Soon after the commencement of hostilities the Governor of Panama, and the American Consul were on the ground, but their to quiet the riot proved ineffectual. It is.reported by some of our passengers that the Governor in the first instance tried to restore order, but afterward encouraged the murder and plunder. My slight acquaintance with . Gov. Deas forbids me from any credence to the latter report. ThetSpanish portion of the inhabitants of Panama were much frightened. Every house and place of business was instantly closed and” barred, and but few ventured out upon the balconies during the night. The hotels in the city were closed and guar ded until morning. Os the amount of money and other effects lost by the passengers I” can give but an imperfect idea, it is supposed by many that not less than SIOO,OOO would cover the amount. True it is that a large sum is lost, and much more probably than ever will be ascertained. Below I hand you a statement which has been ob tained through the exertions of L. O. Goodridge, Esq., of Wells, Fargo & Co.’s Express. It is princi pally made up by the cabin passengers, and is far from being complete. Many of the steerage passen gers decline giving a statement, preferring, 1 sup pose, to defer it until they see what action our gov ernment will take in the matter before making their claims known. One circumstance must not pass unnoticed. A few of the ladies and gentlemen who had effected their escape by wading, some to their waists, in the water to the small boats, proceeded to the Cortez for protection. After some delay at the ship Capt. Col lins admitted them on board, but they were refused the use of rooms or any bedding or refreshments. N. Rawsox. Terms of Peace. A Sardinian paper (the Opinione of Turin,) gives the following—it says from an authoorjtive source —as the articles of the treaty of Paris : 1. Neutralization of the Black Sea, in which Rug- i giais allowed to maintain armed vessels for the de fence of the coast 2. Nicolaieff to be reduced to a commercial port. 8. Russia accepts the consuls of foreign powers in the Black Sea and the Baltic. 4. Non-reconstruction of Bomarsund! 5. Russia gives up a portion of Beisarabia, in cluding the fortress of Ismail. 6. Renounces the exclusive protectorate of the Principalities ; and 7. Renounces the protectorate of the Greek sub jects of the Porte. 8. The Danube isopen to the Hags of all nations. U.

Interesting to Methodists. The Wesleyan Conference, at its last sitting in London, England, so altered their ecclesiastical reg ulations as to alio,w ministers to remain five years at one place, provided the quarterly Conference of the Circuit make a yearly request to that effect af ter the second year. A similar change in the dis cipline of the Methodist Church in this country has long been greatly desired.. J3jP*Book-iaking is most actively pm-sued in the United States. Over three hundred publishers aro busy supplying the mental wants of the public, and oyer three thousand booksellers are distributing the productions. Books have multiplied to such an extent in our country that it now takes seven hundred and fifty paper mills, with two thousand engines inconstant operation, to supply thj prin ters. These mills produced two hundred and se venty million pounds of paper the past year, which immense Supply was sold for about $27,000,000. A pound and a quarter of rags are required for a pound of paper, and four hundred million pounds were therefore consumed in this way last year.— The cost of manufacturing a twelve months’ supply of paper for the United States, aside from labor and rags, is computed at $1,000,000. With this cease less production it is almost impossible to keep up with the publ shers in the notices of their works. ‘-"'ll’l 1 . mm mn “■■■■ wnwian ■■■■■lllllllllllll ■ ■■■■—■■Him married , On the 24th ultimo., by Dr. Pendleton, Mr. FI.

Tears?—theii be they not unmingled shed— For this, to us, is common loss! DIED in Warren county, Georgia, April 25th, John A. Zachry, son of Mr. and Mrs. A. L. Zachry, in his 18th year. It has seldom become the task of the writer to record a death, in which p’‘ty prompts, and sympathy excite , more than the pre sent. John was the only son ; the delight of his father and mother. He was an honor to them ;an example for all his youthful associates. His was a noble and generous nature ; obedient and faithful to the counsels of his parents. He bore his afflictions without a murmur ; never sighed or complained; never asked for a thing, nor refused what was of fered. He sung audibly a few hours before he ex pired? and the day previous, spoke of the boautiful objects that passed before his view, doubtless the attending Angels that were waiting around his dying couch to accompany him away to the skies. Though jmung, he had the Christian’s hope ; ho marked the upright man, and followed in his steps. He was beloved by all—is now mourned by all. His seat in the School-room looks mournful and sad, as if nature itself wept around. Can it be that we shall behold that smiling face no more ? that he, the idol of the dear domestic circle, shall never again be found there ? To us ’tia one of the inscrutable providences of Him “whose ways arc past finding out.” But I had rather labor to soothe the deep grief of his kind parents, than to attempt to describe his many virtues.; —he has left a brighter comet tjian pen can describe. My young friends, gaze upon it, and be ye also ready. While his lovely form is let down in the cold grave, let his father and mother lend a listening ear, and smile at the higher notes of their child away in the golden streets of the spirit land. Adieu then sweet John ; Farewell, till wa meet thee where tears and woes shall not annoy. J. T. McGixty. Tanvjlle, Ga. I^OTICE. —All persons indebted to the Estate jLn of Albert C.

The youngest son of Mr. Edward Wright, of Abcr- j deen, Mississippi, had the misfortune to be afflicted; with a most malignant disease of the skin, which j rendered the child’s lifeoneof misery and suffering. J As the mother had tried every remedy likely to! benefit him without receiving the desired result, she ; became ultimately worn out with trouble and anx- j iety in the matter, and was lamenting the same to! a friend, who recommended Holloway’s Ointmentj and Pills, which the mother commenced using, and| by presevering with the same for six weeks, the j child was completely cured.
