TIE Defeat Of the Nicaragnans.

TGe Defeat Of the Nlcaragnans.
Accounts By the steamer Charles llorgan
yesterday confirm those previously received oil
the defeat of Col. Schlcssinger, with his force
of $50 strong
1t seems that Schlessenger had entered Cos
ia RIGA with the design of attacking a town Of
six thousand inhabitants, about sixty miles
| from Lake Nicaragua. When he had arrived
within few miles OF the contemplated place
of attack, he brought his men to a halt The
arms were stacked and arrangements made
| for dinner; parties were sent out toraging, and
the whole camp was in Il state of liStles repose
the men resting and refreshing themselves at.
ter tedious march. Schlessinger posted
pickets in front Of his position, but neglected
either gross ignorance or, us some suppo>e,
treachery. While the men were in this state.
careless and confident of their safety, the at
tack was made By about 500 Costa Ricans on
either flank. The greatest CONSERVATION en-
sued. Two companies Of Scbessnger's con-
mand, the New Orleans company, under Capt.
Thorpe, aud New York comp,ny, command.
ed by Capt. Creighton and Capt. Raiders COM
pany of Voltigenrs, stood their ground and
made brave resis ance. The two other COM
panics, which constituted the command, a Ger
man and French company, basey fed without
inerchanging Il sho; with the enemy-their
craven commander (Schlessenger) taking the
lead in the dastardy flight. Upon the occur
ence of this unforeseen deserton, the panic be-
came general, and neither Of the brave officers
who manfully stood their ground, could arrest
it, The total loss of the >icaraguans was

The following is extracted from letter receiv-

merchant of Texas
- Your Cherokee LinawsM was used by u far
mer in Grimes county, us a substitute for Calo-
met, Turp6HtiHo Tobacco juice, or Fish oil, and
the result was, it destroyed the maggots nau,edi
0iely, and the smell of it proved SO offensive to
the BiOic Fly that they would not make sec md
attack where the l.inament had been applied to
an injury.

tingly recommend it to all persons engaged in
raising or having cattle, hon SEES, hogs, sheep &c.
The application is simple, and in no case has
it produced any had effect. Apply with fcath
err or brush, sufficient to saturate the place where
the worms are deposited, and they will vacate
