An EXTRAORDINARY SToRF.-Mr Francis, in
his recently published volume of insurance
anecdotes, relates the following "A merchant
appeared in the commercial walks of Liverpool,
where, deep in the mysteries Of cotton and corn,
q constant attendant at church, a subscriber
to local charities, and giVer of good dinners,
he was much respected. The hospitalities Of
the house were gracefully dispensed by his
niece. But at length it became whispered that
his speculations were not successful; and it was
necessary for him to borrow money. This he
did upon the security of property belonging to
his niece. A certain amount of seoresy was
necessary for the sake of his credit, and the
Liverpool underwriters readily assented He
insured her life with at least ten different Hmer-
chants or underwriters for 2,00oz. each; and
the same game was again played over. The
lady was taken i'll, the doctor was sent for, and
found her in convulsions. A specific was ad-
ministered, but in the course OF the night he
was again summoned, but arrived too late.
Next morning it vas known to all Liverpool
that she had died suddenly. The body lay in
state, and the merchant retained his position,
and bore himself with q decent dignity under
his aftliction. He made no Immediate appioa-
tion for the money, and scarcely alluded to it
but he had selected his victims with skill. They
were safe and honorable men and he duly re-
ceived his 100000. From this period he ap-
| peared decline in health, and was recon-
mended change of climate. He went abroad,
and with him his clever partner, who possessed
| the wonderful power of Stimulating death, and
deceiYing the medical men.

We find the following paragraphs in dis
patch of the 2Sth, from Washington:
Lord Palmerston has written private letters
to distinguished gentlemen now in Washington,
stating that the British Government antici-
pates the dismissal of Mr. Champion by this
Government.
1t is reported that certain documents have
been received by Government from Texas, which
may lead to the arrest and detention Of Parker
H. French, by process of law.
Official information has been received from
the Spanish authorities relative to the capture
Of the bark Amelia, on the coast of Hayti, on
suspicion of designing filibustering descent
upon Cuba The documents contain evidence
to prove the charge, and Spain expects this
Government to punish those implicated
claim of Lieutenant General Scott, for
seven thousand dollars, which had been pending
for several years, has recently been allowed him
by the Administration.
Instructions similar to those given to Mr.. Nc
Keon were sent to Mr.. McCay, the United States
District Attorney at New Orleans, to- witt that
measures should be taken to detect and defeat
all preparations for the invasion of Nicaragua
and the reception of those instructions has beer
acknowledged by letters received here yester
day.

The RUSSIANS IN JAPAN-Escdpe of .admi-
raj Pouiatine-The letters from Germany re-
specting the condition of Russia, continue to
indicate that it is the southern part of the en-
pire where the effects of the war are most severe
ly felt, since in that region there is no neighbor
ing and friendly State to neutralize the block
AIDE and encourage prolonged resistance. The
exchange at st. Petersburg is said to have i'm
proved to SOD, either from the activity of the
overland trade or the rumors Of loan from
Prussia. 80
Politically there was nothing new.
Admiral Pouiatine, who had just returned
from the Eastern Seas, had received high dec
Grafton and large pension for the success of his
mission to the Emperor Of Japan, and the skill
with which he eluded the British and French
cruisers, who had captured none of his vessels.
It appears that he was on board the Danish
merchant brig lately seized by the Allies; but
contriyed to escape in boat hastily construct.
ed under his own directions. In this, it is al
legged, he was subsequently, during darkness,
in close contact with her Majesty's ship Bittern
aud other cruisers, o light having actually been
shown on one occasion to warn him of his prox-
unity. Being sufficiently near to hear the word
of command given on board, he had his papers
balasted ready to be sunk, but ultimately sue
ceeded in escaping, although several shots were
fred after him. London Times, Dec, IA.

RUNAWAY SLAVES. The Iberville Gazette
cautions its subscribers and friends to keep a
close watch over their slaves, and states that
the backwoods and swamps in that region are
filled with desperate runaway negroes, armed
to the teeth" number of whom have been
captured recently. The Gazette says:
Some of these boys had been in the woods
upwards of two years. Yet when taken they
were found bountifully supplied with shooting
irons and ammunition. Over two kegs of pow
der, besides guns, pistols. revolvers, cutlasses
and knives, were found in their possession. One
Of the negroes, we understand, turned States
evidence, and q second has acknowledged that
he fired the buildings that were burned at
Bayou Goula last winter. A choke rag will
doubtless soon be put around his neck, which
will prevent his doing further harm. These
runaway slaves kill your cattle, and murder
and rob those they find hunting in the back
woods.

Great difficulty was anticipated on account Of

Of the line In some of the cuts, it further
states, the mud is six or eight feet deep on the

were not overcome for years, until the earth
found somewhat level by caving, the cut hav-
