.45" Balm, the inhuman murderer of Mr..

.y1 Balm, the nhuman murderer of Mr.
and Mrs. Wickham, and negro servant, at
Long Island, has been captured. Finding it
impossible to escape the scouts who were
looking for him in all directions, he unsuc-
cessfslly endeavored to commit suicide by
cutting his throat with razor, and when
found was apparently senseless.
Subsequent to his arrest he made confes.
sion of his guilt. His right name is Nicholas
Beheenan. He states that he visited the house
with the intention Of ravishing a servant girl
there residing. The girl slept in the third
story of the house. He had to pass through
the room of the negro boy, whom he knocked
in the head, but who it is now thought may
recover. He next passed the door of the
room of Mr. and Mrs. Wickham, and, after n
protracted struggle with both, dashed out the
brains of Mrs. Wickham, and by many wounds
so injured Mr.. Wickham that he died on the
following day.

New ORLEANS, June 6.

We are now in receipt of our California
papers to the 10th of'May, brought here by
the Daniel Webster and Ell Dorado.
Walkers fiibuster force had been dis
banded, and the parties composing it surren
dered themselves prisoners, and had arrived
at San Francisco in custody Of the United
States authorities They were released on
parole.
The New Orleans Delta says
When the desolato ex President was the
editor of the Daily Crescent in New Orleans,
his principal employment was abusing and
denOdncng filibusterism. He was the special
friend of the Spanish Consul on an occasion
when fiIIibuster feeling made its first explo-
sion in New Orleans. He had an intense
horror Of the whole system. He was then a
nice, studous, scholarly young man, full of
bile and bitterness, ready with the pen, and
evidently ambitious of cutting figure in the
world editorial. He was always esteemed an
honorable, high minded and honest man. His
faults are excessive vanity, a rather overbear
ing temper, and an utter want of practical
sagacity and worldly tact His talents are
much above the ordinary; his imaginative and
reasoning faculties are strongly developed
His personal department was remarkably
quiet, reserved and rather grave. A small,
ungracefr figure, a pale, freckled face and
eyes of light green, Il drawing, slow, measur-
ed tone of voice, and bearing by no means
grand or impressive, made up the physique of
this redoubtabe gentleman, whom the fears
and imaginations of the NIexcans have con-
verted into second Attla. His venerable
father and estimable family now reside in
Nashville.

ICY 1t is said that Omar Pacha is almost
broken. hearted on the Danube, at the dato-
rness of the Western allies. For months the
Western Powers have been engaged in trans
porting few thousand troops about 5000
miles, with all the boosted and wonderful ap-
pliances of steam. No wonder that many
have whispered treachery and lukewarmness
on the par: of the Western Powers. There
cannot be doubt but that the delay has been
caused by the British Ministers, and particu-
larly by Aberdeen, their chief, hoping against
hope, that the Car would give in and that
war would be unnecessary. Such blunder
has proved worse than a crime. First, the
troops were sent to Malta instead of direct to
Turkey, then the commanders Of the forces
delayed their departure from France and
England. The cavalry and artillery also,
without which the army could not move, were
sent in the slowest cOnveyances. But all this
must have an end. The Gar could not be
cajoled or frightened, and Raglan and ST.
Arnaud, the English and French military
commanders, have arrived in Turkey, and the
cavalry and artillery will soon be there
Military operations on the part of the West
ern allies must soon commence. 1t is report
ed that an English and French force has &C.
cupied Varna.

~" The following letter from the ceie-
brated DIR. James C. Aver, gives the honest
side of the Nostrum question. Since the pub
lie will use these remedies we wish for the
sake of suffering humanity there were more
of them like,his Cherry PectOrat and Cathartie
Pills, whi6h'require no secrecy to make them
go down.
LOWELL 26th April 1854.
Messrs. '--- IL Co., New York city:
Gentlemen-Y ours of the 23d inst, asking
me to Join in combination to put down the
Ohio Nostrum Bill, comes duly to hand. |
cannot accede to your request for the follow
ing reasons:
The law requiring that the composition
shall he published, OF every medicine sold in
the State, cannot work to the injury of any
body who deserves protection. have pub
lished the recipes of my medicines for fifteen
wears, and believe this to be the honest way
of making their virtues known to the commu-
nifty. The Medical Profession publish their
discoveries to the world as soon as made, for
the benefit of all mankind. Why should We
not? The Law which you fear will destroy
your business, can injure only those who false
ly pretend to discoveries and secrets which
they have not 1t will expose the emptiness
of such pretensions, and the public will turn
aside from such pretensions as are found to be
worthless when their composition is made
known. If medicines have real worth they
will be only the better appreciated and the
better patronized by laying their composition
open to the public, that all may judge for
themselves If they have real merit, it is
due in common Justice, to the suffering sick,
to the public health and the cause of hunani-
ty, that the people should know them to
avoid them.
Yours respectfully,
JAMES G. AVER.

A FULL TREAsURY.-Thc Lynchburg
Virginian represents the United States Treas
ury as overlooking with money, and have no
doubt of its correctness. The following is
its estimate:
The surplus Revenue of the country, un-
employed, continues at about S2S,OOO,OOO,
which is just S28,0O0,0OO more of surplus
than there ought to be. 1t is very true, that
it is well to have some surplus on hand, be-
cause we cannot always guess just how
much money we want,-but it is curse to
the country, to have the Federal Govern
ment boarding up treasure like miser,
which is collected from the people, beyond
what are the true needs of the Government.

II. G. FARRELEs ARABIAN EMINENT


Triumphant o0er Disease.
This truly great medicine still goes on, con-
ouering disease, and snatching many poor
powerless victim from The grave BY itspow-
erfully stimulating penetrating and anodyne
qualities, it restores the use of limbs which
have been palsied for years; and by its singu-
lar power Of reproducing the synovial fluid
or Joint water, it cures all diseases of the joints
with surprising rapidity. For rheumatism,
and affections Of the spine and spleen, it has
proved itself a specific; and for affections of
the lungs, liver and kidneys, it is a most valu-
able and powerful auxiliary; also, for all dis
eases of the glands, scrofula, goitre or swelled
neck, &c, &c. And indeed for almost any
disease where an external application is re-
quired, this medicine stands unparalleled
Sprains, bruises, cramps, wounds, chilblains
burns, &c, are speedily cured by it.
From the Hon. Peter Mendrd, one of the oldest
settlers IN Illinois
1t gives me pleasure to add my testimony
to the virtues of your great medicine. One
of my blooded horses had a swelling over the
cap of the knee. about the size of hens egg.
Some said it was strain, and some that it
was the joint water from the knee, and could
not be cured. | tried oil cedar on it, and all
the lnimients and ointments, and they did no
more good than water / then, by persuasion
of my friends, tried II. G. Parrell's Arabian
Liniment, and was happy to find it take eff
feet after a few days, and it finally cured the
noble animal entirely. / think it is decided
ly the greatest Eminent for horse, as well as
human flesh, ever knew.
Palsy or Paralysis
Thadeus Smith, of Mudd Creek, Tazewell
county, Illinois, says: 81 HAD lost the use of
my arm for more than year, by palsy or
paralysis; the flesh had entirely withered
away, leaving nothing but skin, muscle and
bone. Tried all the best doctors, and all the
remedies | could hear Of, but they did no
good then commenced the use of II. G..
Farrells Arabian Iiniment, and few bottles
entirely cured me, and my arm is now as
strong and feshy as the other: it is also fist
