CouNTFRFElr MoNEY.-A man named Bob
johnson was arrested at San Juan, on Sunday,
for passing counterfeit money. He attempted
to pass ten dollar piece at clothing store,
but was told that it was counterfeit. He then
went across the street. and managed to get it
of at another store. One or two counterfeit
pieces were found on his person after his arrest.
He is now confined in jail.

THEArER.-Mrs. Julia Dean Hayne has made
a decided bit with the theater-goers of Nevada.
For the past week, with one or two exceptions,
the houses have been crowded, and the interest
which was excited upon the announcement Of
her first appearance has been fully sustained.
AS an accomplished and correct actress she has.
perhaps, never had an equal upon the Nevada
boards, and the mere announcement of her re-
turn, upon any future occasion, will be sufi-
clent to secure crowded and fashionable houses
The beautiful play of "Griseldis," was pre-
sented for the first time in Nevada on Thursday
evening. This play, we believe, was written
expressly for Mrs Haync, and her personaton
of the principal character drew forth the merit
ed encomiums of all who were present on the
occasion. The "Hunchback," the Stranger
and "Lucretia Borgia" are among the standard
pieces which have been presented during the
week, and although these plays have been per-
formed here over and over again, none the less
interest was manifested to witness them.
Mrs. lIayne has been assisted by splendid
stock company. and much of her success can be
fairly attributed to the correct and tasteful
manner in which they have sustained their sew
eral parts. Mrs. Judah is talented and pleas
ing actress, and cannot be exceled in her line
Messrs. Ryer and Pope, although the present is
their first appearance upon our boards, may be
regarded as established favorites. Dumphries
made his appearance on Wednesday evening,
and 1t is useless to say that the first glimpse of
his comical phiz upon the stage brought down
the house.
We regret to learn that the company design
leaving at the end of this week, having made
arrangements to open theater in Sacramento
on Monday evening next.
Tonight will be presented Bulwers beautiful
play of the Lady OF Lyons.

The most important feature Of the news re-
ceived by the mail steamer Sonora, is that in
relation to the affairs of Nicaragua. The ac-
counts as received have come almost exclusive
ly through Walkers enemies, and should be ia
ken with considerable allowance. 1t seems that
a Mr.. Spencer, an agent of Vanderbilt, has by
series of maneuvers, and assisted by the Bri-
fish men-of-war at Greytown, got possession Of
the lake steamers, and the Costa Ricans appear
to have got possession Of portion of the transit
route. Gen. Henningsen, who, at our previous
advices, was surrounded at Granada with force
of some 250 men, appears to have been relieved
by Lieut. Col Waters, who was sent by Walker
for that purpose. Henningsen sets down his
own loss during seventeen days operations, af-
ter the destruction of Granada, at "about 120
officers, soldiers, citizens, women and children
killed, wounded and swept off by the pest-
lence," and estimates the loss of the enemy at
800 killed, wounded and carried off by pesti-
lence. Walker himself was at Rivas with the
main body of his army, which is estimated at
ilOm OhS bhOuonhu W bWVAFC HuhuiSN nSn'
about three hundred of whom, according to the
statement of his enemies, were on the sick list.
Gen. Canas had been appointed Commander-in-
Chief of the allied army, and with force of
one thousand men was about to march to Rivas
to attack Walker, leaving other forces to follow
him should occasion require.
Although Walker is represented to be in a
critical condition, surrounded by the enemy,
and nearly the whole country in the possession
of the Central American forces, we cannot see
that his position is so desperate as his enemies
would make us believe. President Mora and
Gen. Canas were both on their march for Rivas,
and it Is altogether likely decisive battle was
fought in the fore part of January. If Walker
had as many troops under his command as his
enemies admit he had, there is nine chances to
one that he was victorious. That he will yet
come out all right, we firmly believe. Near a
thousand recruits were on their way from New
York and New Orleans, but it is not yet known
whether they were enabled to join him.
We shall look for the next news from Nicar-
qua with considerable interest 1t may be that
Walker has been defeated, and his army cut to
pieces or made prisoners. Ifsuch should prove
to be the case, the regeneration of Central
America will be delayed for some years.

Conflicting Iestimony.-A Additional myste-
~, says the New York Commercial, is thrown
around the Burdell case" by the testimony
given before the Surrogate. The murdered
man appears to have been not only in two
places at once-in Herkimer and New York
but to have been capric:ous beyond all pre-.
cedent. The language, supported by the pro-
ductiOn Of his letters, in which he spoke of
Mrs. Cunningham and to her, was at one time
fierce and almost b-ntal in its yindictiyeness;
and at other times tender almost al nauseam.
At one time he denies his marriage and avows
his intense determination never to marry, and
especially never 10 marry Mrs. Cunningham,
and at another is openly making his arrange
ments for that event. and uniting his persua-
sions with hers to lady to act as brides
maid. According to the sworn testimony of
witnesses before the Surrogate, DR.. Burdell
was ubiquitous in person, and in purpose and
temper the climax of contradictions We do
not envy the excellent aud learned Surrogate
the task of deciding when sworn witnesses
SO widely disagree in their most common
facts.

THE MUSIC OF THE RAIN.
BY AMARINTH AYoURNEEN.


While the vesper bells were ringing,
When the birds had ceased their singing,
To my heart sweet mem'ries bringing
Came the music OF the rain.
Ny childhood days so bright and fieeting
Tiny raiI-drops seemed repeating,
Waking JOY al thoughts Of meeting
Those l ne'er may see again.
Nem'ries sweet and sad were blending,
Joy and sorrow both were lending
Voices which were ever ending:
Sweet the music Of the rain.
From my heart ] may not sever
Mem rvs index, pointing ever
Backward to the joys that never
VIII revisit ME again.
Tho to-day is full Of sorrow,
From the past we still may borrow
joys once tasted, while tomorrow
Whispers ever, hope in me.
Like sweet hayp-strings touched all lightly
Dreams the fairies weave Us nightly
Come the fair-drOps smiling brightly,
Dripping from each waving tree.
Jeweled blossoms brightly cleaning
Like tEo stars Of Heaven heaming,
While a mufIied voice is seeming
Still to hum the mystic strain;
Music OF these flowing numbers
Luis the heart to dreamy slumbers.
