TO MOTHERS WHO HAVE LOST THEIR CHILDREN
Mothers, do you feel forlorn,
At the thought that death has torn
Frem your arms, your homes, your sight,
Those who made your homes so ightl
In the morning when you rise,
Do you miss their loving eyesl
AT the table when yeu eat,
Do you see the vacant seat,
Where, but lately by your side,
Sat the little one who died
Do you feel as if gloom
Hangs around you liz the room
Feel as if the very air
"ells you one is missing therel
YES; know mothers heart
Bat too plainly feels the smart
When the sun sinks in the west
When all nature seems to rest,
Then her bosom heaves with sighs,
Then the tears flow from her eyes,
Then she sadly looks around--
But her loved-one is not found.
Late at night she socks her bed,
Tries TO rest her aching head
But. instead of soothing sleep.
Finds that she can only weep.
Mothers, though you are bereaved,
Though your hearts are sOrely grieved,
Though the loss is hard TO bear,
DO not sorrow in despair
They were rescued, taken home,
Ere their feet had learned to roam;
Innocent they lived and died
Now they're by their Saviour's side,
Free from sickness, pain or sin,
With the Lord they are shut in
Then, be comlOrled, and know,
Where they are there yOu may go

0~r Miasm and Malaria are the great death
agents throughout the largest portion of the
habiiable globe.
Mlasm is malaria, but malaria is not miasn.
Mlasm IS an emanation from decayng vege-
tatlon. Malaria is bad air, whatever NAV be
It's source. All impure air is malaria
Mlasm is so rarifed by sun of ninety de-.
grees that II rises rapidly above us, and il no-
cuous. The cool of the morning and evening
OF summer time condenses it, and causes il to
fal TO the surface Of the earth and is the fruit
tul cause OF pesiilence, plague, and epidemic
fevers. Thus, the higher persons sleep above
the surface OF the earth, the healthier is the at

REMOVAL OF Mrs. CUNNINGHAM TO PRIsoN.-Up
to the 18th Mrs. Cunningham was suffered to remain
at her residence 81 Bond street, upon the plea that
she was too i'll to be removed. Bail had been refused
and captain of police had charge of her and of the
house. On the 18th the following note was addressed
to the District Attorney:
Dear Sir: As counsel and attorney for some of
the heirs OF Harvey Bardell, have long been desr-
Gus 70 secure possession of the house No. 81 Bond
street.
As gather, Justice Dawson has issued his war
rant oil commitment against Mrs. Cunningham, and
therefore as the house referred to cannot rghtully
and, as Think not legally be made prison, and as
it appears to me that the matter OF the safe and pro
per disposition of the accused is with you more than
with any one else, claim that the house the mo-
perty of my clients, be freed from Mrs Cunnnghams
presence. Always respectfully,
CHARLES EDWARDS.
New York, August Is, 1857.

LIVINGSTON CORRESPONDENCE.

Eds. Cyescent--The prospects for the success OF
the American party in this part Of the State are very
fattering. Walkers Kansas treachery and the sub
sequent endorsement by Buchanan the antirepubli.
can and tyrannicai spirit of the Democratic party of
this State in passing the celebrated Army bill =
together with many other leprous features of that
party, have greatly shaken the faith of good and
fecting Democrats and caused them to turn to the
American party as the only one that is pure and
national. Apart from this, the "cut and dried
Democrats are in delightful state of confusion
among themselves and, from the present aspect OF
the political horizon, they are getting no better
fast" The hand of the piney woods Talleyrand is
apparent in our local conventions dealing sabs to
those who have thrown off their allegiance to him,
and who have had the temerity to exercise their
mental and vocal faculties in giving expression to
their political opinions. There factions in the
Democratic party which will never be healed up by
the medicinal effect of Davidsons tears For long
while he has been the lege lord of the bogus spec
mems of the genus homo of this country, but, like
every other CAMS, he has had his day and does not
require much insight into the future to foretell that
the time is near at hand when he will be politically
defunct and that he will give place to rising young
men who are the opponents of the young Democracy.
There have sprung up in the Democratic ranks
talented and Independent young men, who have
already throtted his distinguished confere, and
now turning him! God speed them in such a
religious crusade.
The tiger, Judge Watterston, will soon be waiting
in his jungle for the attack of Davidson but in the
event of Davidson not calling on him there, under
stand that he is going to pursue him throughout the
campaign. Mr.. Davidson, no doubt, nervously recol-
ects with what success and indomtable energy Judge
Watterston has pursued him in the forum before the
judicial bench, and opne in the present campaign
that Davidson will make his beat as far possible
from Watterston
Hon. H. Thompson, of st. Helena parish, has been
nominated by the American party for the State
Senate. This gentlemans name being on the Ameri-
can ticket is significant of its for, whilst he
will be enthusiastically supported by his own party,
he will, like Hannibal carry into Italy, and take
away many votes from the enemy. Judge Waiter
ston and Thompson will together in this Judicial
District, which will give considerable majority for
the American party. srLEx.

The New York papers contain some details of affairs
in Nicaragua not received here by the last arrival
The Post has the following
In Nicaragua quiet is the order of the day. The

Gen. Canas visited Greytown on the 18th ult., and

Mr.. Carey Joness mission to Costa RIGA proves of
most friendly character. Capt. CAVITY in return is

Three hundred and fifty of Walkers men are now
in Greytown, in very destitute condition-they hay
ing been brought from Costa Rica, in expectation
of finding the steamer Tennessee in readiness to con-

The following important intelligence reaches us
from private correspondent: !

Costa RIGA and Nicaragua have made treaty ;
Nicaragua having all her old boundaries. except one
side of San Juan river, from Fort Castillo down (92
miles) to the harbor Of San Juan del Norte, taking
in Punta Arenas, which includes all the buildings Of
the company.
''Punta Arenas has always been claimed by the
authorities Of Greytown, as belonging to them"
From the Express we extract the following:
IL IS rutnOreQ InaG MT. carey Jones mission to
Costa RIGA was understood at San Jose to be of q
friendly character, and that if he was successful in
his mission the United States, men-of-war would be
notified to nterpose in of any appearance Of in
vasion.
We are informed that the Nicaragua Isthmus grant
has been given by Costa Rca and Nicaragua to Messrs
W. r. G. Webster and j. G. Harris, of whose visit to
Costa RIGA for the accomplishment of this purpose
we have heretofore notified you. The competing

Clark, the p NJ. S. Co. interest; and some English
capitalists, represented by the English Consul.
Among the passengers per steamer from Greytown
were Messrs. Webster, Harris and Cauty, who take
passage this evening for New York in the Central

Cauty of the Niearaguan Army, who now commands
at Greytown. Messrs Webster and Harris are both
known to your readers by repute. Capt. c. goes to
Washington, accredited by the Costa Rican Govern.
ment as a sort of exchange ambassador in friendly
return for the visit Of Mr.. Carey Jones.
