WASHINGTON. March IL

WASHINGTON, March llth-
New Orleans papers of Saturday last are re-
ceived. They contain the details of the news
by the brig Manihitlan from Tampico, on the
18th ult.
The Tampico papers manifested considerable
alarm as to the result of Miramon's expedition,
but they considered Vera Cruz in a most per-
feet state of defence.
More than 1000 men, says the "Prima"
can be concentrated there at a moments notice
in case of an attack, without including the
commands of Lave and Pejo, or the army of
Oiaca numbering 1000 men before Orizaba, all
counted.
The Liberals have for the defence of the
city about 5000 available troops.
On the other hand the Prima thinks that no
more than 1000 men can be spared from the
cities now held at the point of the bayonet, by
the Reactionary party and that Miramon will
have to depend almost entirely upon the army
with which he set out from the Capital. In
the meantime the war is to be prosecuted with
vigor all through the interior.

A Man Hung Himself to a Corpse.

At a late hour last night we learned the fol
lowing details of a singular affair which occur
red near Cumminsville, four or five miles from
this city, on Saturday night. 1t appears that
a person, whose name was not given us, entered
the burying ground at that place, and removed
a dead body from a grave, which he placed in
a sack. In making his exit from the yard, it
was necessary to scale a high board fence,
which the resurrectionist evidently found diff
fculty in accomplishing with the burden with
which he was encountered. In order, there
fore, to give him free use of his hands and
arms, he placed the cord attached to the mouth
of the sack around his shoulders, and climbed
to the top of the fence, when he must have
fallen off, leaving the corpse on the opposite
side. The result was, that the cord was drawn
up around his neck, and he was found dead
yesterday morning, having been choked to
death by the weight of the corpse on the OPP
posite side of the fence!
The story. seems an incredible one, but We
are informed that, startling as it is, it is never
theless rue.-Cincinnati Gazette.

WASHINGTON, March 11th.
Gen. Denver proposes to return to California
by the next steamer, and this involves his re-
signation as Commissioner of Indian Affairs.
The Supreme Court to-day announced opin-
ions in II cases, but did not deliver the opin-
ion of time. The Court then adjourned to
December next, having cleared less than hall
the Calendar. ,.
The trial of Hon. Danl. d. Sickles will not
probably take place till week after next, the
Grand Jury not being inclined to give his case
precedence over others.
The statement made up at the Treasury De
partment shows that the circulation of the
banks throughout the country in 1856 was fear
ly S215, 100000; in 1857 $3.50, 00O, 900, and
in 1858 S193, 000, 900 and a third.
The remains of the late Post Master General
were semitic Tennessee this afternoon, in charge

johnson, and Col. Savage, of that State, the
offer of the Adams Express Co. having been
accepted.

John Sherman.

This demagogue, in order to make a showing
against the Administration and acquire some
noteriety for himself, succeeded during the
late session of Congress in getting an Investi=
eating Committee appointed, to examine into
Naval affairs. After having examined a host
of disappointed spectators, he in order to fore
estal public opinion, wrote out an abstract of
his report and sent it to the Cincinnati Gtm-
neerciaL before it was laid before the House
The Report made by Messrs. GRoEsBEcK and
BococK, completely refutes all the statements
of Sherman. We think that if the accounts
of the Kansas Investigating Committee were
examined, of which Mr.. S. was a member, it
would give some facts that would put the pra-
ter who boasts of his own immaculate purity in
day shape, and show that there was corruption
and peculation practiced even by that Com
mittee Seneca AdUertiser.
