NWE P.lST WINTER IND SPRIy,


IL so far, have been very wet ones, causing many
of rivers 10 overflow their banks, back
ing up the water in the creeks and bayous and
flooding to considerable extent the bottom
lands when the rivers recede, which may be ex-
pected soon, then the large surface Of decayng veg
etable matter exposed to the scorchng rays of the
summer sun, produces the malaria, which proves
SO fatal in its course, sweeping whole States, and
sparing neither age nor in its conquering
march.
After a residence Of more than twenty wears in
the middle and Southern States, we think we have
discovered a medicine which, to a certain extent
is n preventative of the attacks of bilious fever
ague, &C., and as such we recommend our Magnolia
Whisky.
We wish the public to understand that we are
not urging upon them the Use Of strong Liquors as
beverage. We are aud always have BEEN opposed to
their being used IN that way, but IL people will use
them as such, let them have by all means
pure article. that Will keep them in health, and
engthen instead Of shOrtening their lives. We pro-
pose TO sell always pure and unauthorized Liquors
for medicinal purposes, and n little for the stom-
ach's sake, If required and will challenge in
spection by the best chemists in this any other
country, to lind any impurity adnlteration in
the whisky branded by us, ''Allis L Howe's Mag
nolia. Ii is warranted, ii is distilled from the
corn, rye, or wheat, with q slight addition of good

EXTRAORDINARY ELoPEMENT-A young man of 10,
named Smears, eloped from Rochester, n Y, on Fri
day night, 18th inst, with Mrs. Cherry, who is over
40 years of age and has six children and two grand
children. The runaways were arrested in Albany
and brought back. Smears was charged with lar
ceny and convicted. In regard to this disgraceful
affair we find the following further particulars
Yesterday afternoon Barney Smears, the youngster
who ran away with Mrs. Cherry, was brought from
Jail to be examined on the charge of larceny pre-
ferred against him. Dr.. Tobey, with whom be
formerly lived, appeared in obedience to subpoena
and identified the surgical tools found in Smears chest
as the property of himself and DR.. Elwood. Smears
pleaded guilty of the act, and was sentenced to the
penitentiary for three months. With regard to the
elopement, Smears alleges that Mrs Cherry has been
teazing him to go away with her for six months and
that he finally yielded to her opportunities to go to
some relatives she has somewhere at the East. She
told him that she could get him good situation

De.trhetlv. Fire In c.rrollton, s1isslss'pr

Destfuctave Flre IN CafrOAltOn, MlSsiseSppas
On the night OF the 18th inst fire occurred in the
town Of Carollton, Mississippi, which destoyed
number Of buildings. The CarroIlton Democrat gives
the following account Of the occurrence:
The fire originated, it is supposed, from the stove
pipe passing through the ceiling in the work-room
Of Col W. H. Curtis tailoring Establishment on the
public square, and in the immediate vicinity of the
Presbyterian church. This room was connected with
the saesroom of the same establishment, which was
embraced under one roof with shoe-shop, occupied
by Mr.. George Ransom and saddleahop, occupied
by Col. w. g. Jennings.
The block of buildings was contiguous to Judge
Johnson's awotice at the northend and two story
re.house owned by Mr.. r. L. Bingham, but occu-
pied by Messrs. J. P. Money, at the southern end
This sorehouse was joined on the south side by the
large three story corner house, the first two floors oil
which were owned by Mr. W. Ray, but occupied BY
NJ. Barnes, and the third story BY the fraternity
entirely destroyed, being separated only by few
feet so that with what facilities could be had it wa
1 impossible to save any one.
The fire having been discovered soon after il
origin, but when it was too far advanced to checl
its progress, nearly all the valuable goods from eaci
house was saved Col. Curtis perhaps losing SOM
clothing, and Messrs. J. b ?. Money suffering con
siderable loss consisting chiefly OF hardware and sucl
articles could not we'll be moved. But we much re
greet the fact that the Odd Fellows to whom the tow
and county much Indebted for their efforts II
the of female education, lost all their books
papers and furniture, except perhaps their carpet
which was removed and used in projecting q con
tiguous house.
For the flames to communicate from the building
first ignited to the others the work Of but few
minutes-the roofs being dry, and the houses con
| structed mostly Of pine timber. All the work thai
could be done the block consumed, was to remove
the valuables from the houses their destruction
| inwas evtable.
The loss is estimated at over $4,000. The house
burnt embraced the greatest loss none being covefe
by insurance. The goods in the houses most expose
all removed and Of course suffered considerabl
damage.
The Presbyterian Church, situated north of Ii
fire, and only, perhaps, about twenty feet from Judg
Johnsons Office, was ignted two or three times, bi

: A CoSTuMAc1ous JuDGE.-A queer judicial pro-
ceeding has lately come off in Florida Judge Pear
son, one of the Associate Justices of the Supreme
Court Of Florida, absent at late session of the
Court in Taahassee-and we understand that Chief
Justice Baltzell issued writ and placed it in the
hands of the Sheriff, directing him to proceed to the
residence of Justice Pearson-arrest him and bring
him before the Chief Justice. The Sheriff obeyed in.
structions-went to Judge Pearson, told him his
business, whereupon Judge P. very quietly told him
that he could order him to prison for contempt but
would not do so under the circumstances, and re-
quested him to tell Chief Justice Baltzell be would
come to Tallahassee at his convenience.

The NIcARAGuAN TREATY.-Under date of the
10th, the Washington correspondent of the Baltimore
Sun writes:
The Yrrisarri treaty, having been ratified by
Nicaragua, will be submitted to the Senate for ratf
cation as soon as the proper document shall be re-
ceived from Nicaragua that is, day two before
the termination Of the session. The Senate would
not act upon this treaty. unless they had before them
also the treaty lately concluded between Great Britain
and Nicaragua The Cass treaty may be of itself
unobjectonable, but yet there are Senators who will
wish to consider it as part Of the arrangement
whereby the Central American question, long pend
ing between the United States and Great Britain is
to be adjusted Possibly the President may deem the
matter as one Of sufficient Importance to justify the
detention OF the Senate after the Sd of March, e..
on extra session Of that body.
1t will be observed, however, that though the
clusion of our treaty may be delayed, the British
treaty has been duly concluded, and will take imme
date effect Sir W. sore Ouseley is to proceed to
negotiate similar treaties with tile other States Of
Central America. The Nicaragua transit and the
lsthmus itself is now under British protection, and
the declaration of Lord Malmesbury to Mr.. Dallas
that under the guaranty of the British Government
industry and prosperity would be restored. will be
verified British protection has o substantial mean
