A HaDnY Man.

The original of the following picture of
happy man, drawn recently by Theo-
dore Parker in one of his sermons, is said
to be highly esteemed resident of New
ton, Mass. There ought to be great
many more just such happy men in our
country, but we are afraid there are not.
''The happiest man l have ever known
is one far enough from being rich, in mon
ey, and one who will never be very much
nearer to it. His calling fits him, and he
likes it, rejoices in its process as much as
in its result. He has an active mind, we'll
filed. He reads and he thinks. He tends
his garden before sunrise, every morning
then rides sundry miles by the rail-
does his ten hours work in the town
whence he returns happy and cheerful
With his own smile he catches the earliest
smile of the morning, plucks the first rose
of his garden, and goes to his work with
the flower in his hand and great one
blossonlng out OF his heart. lie runs
over with charity, as cloud with rain;
and it is with him the clould-what com
ing from the cloud is rain to the meadows;
is a rainbow of glories to the cloud that
pours it out. The happiness of the affec-
tons fills up the good man, and he runs
over with friendship and love-connubial,
parental, fiial, friendly, too, and philan-
thropic, besides. His is perpetual 'trsp
to catch sunbeam'-and it always
Springs and takes it in. I know no man
who gets more out of life; and the secret
of it is, that he does his duty to himself,
to his brother, and to his God. I know
rich men and learned men--men of great
social position; and if there is genius in
America, know that--but a happier man
[ have never known"

REPUBLIC OF NIoARAeUA.-It appears
that Nicaragua has formally announced
her severance from the Central American
Confederacy, and constituted herself a
Republic, thus abandoning all hope of re-
forming the old league. A new Consti-
tuition has been adopted, which increases
the Presidential term to four years, and
gives him almost unlimited powers. The
army has been greatly increased, and the
pay more than doubled. The Commits
sioner sent to arrange the boundary dis
pute with Honduras, failed to do so, as
Honduras still insists upon her ultra ter
ritorial pretensions. Another revolution
was at the last dates apprehended in Nj
caragua, the result Of which upon prop
erty was much feared.

News from Col. FSsmont,s Party.

Mr.. Babbitt, late Secretary of Utah Ter.
ritory, who arrived at San Francisco from
San Diego in the steamship Goliah, on the
way to Washington, brings news of Col;
Fremont's party. From friend who was
a passenger with Mr. Babbitt, we CLEAN
few of the facts connected withth affair
1t will be remembered that Fremont
started nearly two months since to demon
strate the practicability ofthe Central Rail:
road route, by travelling it in winter. He
took with him about twenty men. He
reached the Rocky Mountains with little
difficulty, but after crossing near the Mid
die Park, his way was full ofgrcat trials.
He had started with little provision, ex-
pecting that his party would kill sufficient
game for their sustenance, but they had
suffered actual starvation. Mr.. Babbitt
met the party, then numbering fourteen,
on the 1th CT February, above the Vegas
or the Santa Clara, near the line of New
Mexico, and about 400 miles directly east
OF San Francisco, but the country is such
that he will have to travel at least 400
miles to reach the Sierra Nevada. The
party had lost seven men by death. of
which two cases were aseribed directly to
starvation, and the others to the conse-
quences of cold and unhealthy diet.
Fremont was determined to continue on
his course, and come in through Walkers
pass. A portion of his intended route is
entirely unexplored, and the exploration
at this time of year, with party reduced
by disease and suffering, is rash under
taking.
Fremont refused to accompany Mr..
Babbitt down the Spanish trail to Los
Angeles, which trip he might have made
with little difficulty. His men seemed de-
termined to stick by him and brave all
dangers. r. s59

More Trouble with the Indians.

The Indians have caused the usual a.
mount of trouble, and perhaps few more
than the usual number have been sent else
where to learn better. About the end of
last month four were killed and others Sc
verely woundedin Yolo county, and about
the same time nine were killed and five
wounded on Clover Greek, at the head OF
the Sacramento. The standing offense is
stealing cattle. At Cottonwood more
trouble is anticipated. The red men are
said to be supplied with about fifty United
States yaugers and plenty of ammunition,
and have about thirty American horses.
They had made a widely concerted plan to
attack the whites about the end of this
month. On McCloud River some thefts
and other offenses were punished by a
party offorty miners, who killed 22 In
dians.
The mountain diggers living on the coast
range at the head of Toms and Stony
Greeks, in Colusi county, have of late
stolen large number of cattle and horses
from the inhabitants living in the valleys.
Messrs. Hedspeath and Swift headed a
party of twelve men, and went into the
mountains for the purpose ofpunishing the
tribe. They found number of them hid
in caves, and, after sharp fight, succeed
ed in killing twentyone, three of whom
unfortunately were squaws. They took
twenty men and children prisoners, and
brought them to the settlements. A
wounded squaw was left under a tree,
where she would be found by her friends.
1t is reported that the Indians from the
north are gathering in formidable numbers
on the mountains, and the inhabitants of
the western portion of Colusi are organic
ing and arming for self-defense. Weshall
probably hear of more Indian troubles in
that region in few days.

ANOTHER ANrI-RENr OUTRAGE.
party of men, disguised as Indians, entered
dence Deputy Sheriff Waterbury's resi-
in Nassau Village last night, about the
time Mr.. W. was undressing to retire to
bed, and forced him to deliver up certain
papers in his possession. AS Mr.. W. was
not prepared for the attach. and the "1n-

papers or making a good deal of trouble,
the documents were handed over, when
the party left peaceably albany, (NY)

TERRIBLE SToRM.-About 10 O'Clock
on Sunday night, our town was visited by
quite storm of wind and rain, accompan-
led by thunder and lightning, which last
ed for nearly an hour. The only disas-
trous effects of this storm we have heard
of as yet, are quite visible on the Court
house, in the public square, the west ga
BILE end of which was completely blown in
and nearly one-half of the roof carried
away and scattered upon the streets! The
lawyers looked chap-fallen yesterday NOR
ming, as they stood around the old "Tem-
pie of Justice" which has stood the "pelt-
lngs Of the pettiless storm for half a
century, and beheld it in its ruins.-M.

Box ofSilyer a nd Jewelry Found Buried

Under Ground.
On Saturday last, a box containing a
silver card basket, 35 silver spoons and
forks marked ''W., an outsider, bunch
of unfinished brass keys, skeleton keys,
files, pick, one silver watch, three watch
chains, one small powder-can, &c, was
found in the yard of Edward G. Fowler
1t was buried abouttwo feet under ground,
Immediately under an apple-tree. The

ceived that the tree above the boxes seem.

removing it, the wooden box was discov.

On Sunday, while Marshals Carey and

County COMMISSIONER 1t is ques-
ton with us, whether the county would
not be benefited by appropriating sufficient
funds for the purpose of sending the coun
ty paper to Commissioner who is too
close to take the paper himself? Wewould
like to send Jonathan Keer the Pioneer,
provided We could get two dollars for it.
Send the news abroad, that Wyandot
county has one officer presiding over her
affairs who does not take his county paper.
This is moral fact.

New ORLEANS, April 18-Priyate let
ters from Mexico are very contradictory
as to the Alvarez insurrection. 1t is re-
ported that telegraphic dispatch was re-
ceived at Vera Cruz, before the Texas
sailed, announcing the cessation of hostil-
tiles between Santa Anna and Alvarez
On other hands, letters state Alvarez is
making every preparation for determin-
ed resistance. The general opinion is that
Santa Anna will be defeated and finally
overthrown.

SkiIlful Thieves in Paris.

A Paris correspondent of an American
journal says:
Probably at no othercity is theft carried
on with so much cunning and adroitness as
here. This mornings paper notices the
last novelty in this line. Two men, by
means of false keys, entered house, du-
ring the absence Of the proprietor, and
proceeded to assert the furniture and other
articles, and placing together in one place
such articles as suited their convenience.
Then, whilst one kept watch, the other
sought dealer in second hand furniture,
and, bringing him to the house, de-
sired an offer. The bargain of course
was soon struck, the money paid, and the
thieves left for parts unknown. Imagine
the purchasers CONSERVATION at finding
his right to remove the articles questioned
by the proprietor, who returned during
the removal.

The Tax Law.

An amendment has been made to the
Tax Law, in the House, exempting fifty
dollars from taxation. Itpassed by vote
of 48 to 58. 1t was supported by Mr..
BRowN, of the Hamilton delegation, who
is reported to have said:
Mr.. Brown hoped it would prevail. He
thought the State of Ohio was not sunk so
low as to be under the necessity ofplacing
upon the tax duplicate the cooking stove,
the family bible--of invading the sanctu-
ary, and listing the family relics and heir
looms. 1t was bad policy to crush the
poor-to cripple their energies, and thus
prevent them from rising to usefulness and
wealth. Even among the Jews, the re-
.reat of the domestic circle-the memen-
toes of affection and friendship, were Sc
cure from the unhallowed search of the ex-
ecution officer. This was high exhibl-
ton Of refined humanity, utterly at vari
ance with the principles of psn-exemption
in this bill.
This is all very well, bat still the law is
a monstrosity, inasmuch as no man is al
lowed to deduct his debts from his credits,
but is obliged to pay tax upon the full
value ofhis property. No such law can
receive the favor of the people, and ifit is
passed it will be Indignantly erased from
the statue book by the next Legislature

EFFECTS OF DIss1PArIoN.-A sporting
gentleman made his appearance on Sat
day morning at Mayors office, in high
state of excitement, caused by the free in
diligence over night, and the loss OF about
$1,000 in cash. The story by the indi.
vidual was that he had met with a cy-
prian the night before whom he haG
accompanied to disreputsble establish
ment in the lower part of the city, where
he spent the night. Before retiring. he
deposited his money in one of his stock
inss, but in the morning, to his consterna-
ton, the deposit had disappeared. The
loser Immediately hurried off to the May
or's office, where search warrant was
obtained. But one of the officers sug-
eested an examination of the stockings oi
the applicant for justice before the war
rant was executed. This suggestion was
carried out, and the seekers found the
money slowed away where the individual
had placed it the night before The va
