that the entire bones of human beng
we're recently found near Damon Pond
in Rutland. Worcester county, which APP
peared 10 have been deposited there about
twenty wears. These bones are supposed
10 be the remains Of young man named
Chester Sprout, from Vermont, who DIS
appeared from Rutland (where he was at
work) very mysteriously about twenty
wears since. A man by the name OF
Asahel Presson. or Preston, whose story
has not heretofore been credited, said that
Sprout was murdered by man In Rut-
land. for whom be had worked, and bu-
ried near Damon Pond Last spring,
Preston. who had become very poor, wrote
threatening letter to gentleman in
Rutland, stating that he was in want Of
money, and that if he (the gentleman
ulu not let MN nave Sohi0, HC "Ouio "a
pose him in the crime he had committed
and that if he valued his neck more than
his money, he must let him have some
For this Preston was thrown into jail
where he has since remained, persistine
in the truth of his statements, which some
are now inclined to believe. The teetl
of the skeleton, which are in good state
of preservation, it is said, have beer
identified as those of Sprout, which were
peculiar in many respects, and easy TO b,
identified. The matter is being inyesti

THE RE-oPENIG OF THE SLAVE
TRADE.-Speaking of the decree of
Gen. Walker, re-establishing the slave
institution in Nicaragua, the Carolina
Times remarks:
For our own part we were highly
pleased with the decree, for we are de-
cidedly in favor of re-opening the slave
trade, in order that the price of negroes
may be reduced TO such figures that
every industrious poor man may pur-
chase and become a shareholder We
regard the course pursued by General
Walker as not only correct, but chal-
lenges the approval of the entire mass o
people inhabitipg the Southern States
we believe that they will sustain him il
the position he has assumed. Hopin,
and believing that the confederaey nov
known as the United States of North A
merica Will soon be dissolved, we loo
upon this movement of Gen. Walker a
that of statesman, and we hope til
day is not far distant when Central A
merica, embracing the island of Cub;
viii form port of the Southern confed
eracy."
