IMPORTANT CAPTURE.-Yesterday there
was an unsuccessful attempt made to
convey large lot Of "coEtraband" goods
into Dixie, But the thing was too
thinly veneered to get through undetect-
ed. Medicines, silks, cloth, shoes, boots,
and quantity of other articles desirable
in Dixie, were sewed up in feather beds,
and thus hidden, they were attempted
to be struggled through, but the vigilence
of the guards was more than equal to the
cunning of the "amiable wench," & Co.,
that we are informed undertook the job
The goods aud parties are now at Hea d.
quarters undergoing an examination,

DISCOVERY OF AN IMPORTANT LIGHT" Mala-
kof," the Paris correspondent of the New York
Times, writes that scientific men have been EN-.
ployed there for some time in seeking an artificial
light for the exploration of the cavities of the hu
man body. The difficulties in the problem were to
find light that produced no caloric-a light which
might be condensed into tubes of small dime nsons,
and which produce white light. Messrs: de Mon
results. They employ the empty tubes of Geissler,
which do not transmit caloric under the influence
of electric light. These tubes are bent and inter.
laced into labyrinth, and thus they obtain vast
quantity of light in space so small as will admit
of its use even in cavity like that of the nostrs.
This light has been already used with advantage
in the examination of disease in all cavities of the
hn6V.

CREvAssE IN ST. BERNARD PARIsu.-We learn
from passengers who came up on the Mexican
Gulf railroad yesterday that crevasse has oc-
Cured on the plantation of Gen. Story, about
nine miles below the city, which has flooded the
country for several miles and has stopped the
through trains of the railroad. Onr informants
were unable to ascertain what steps had been
taken towards stopping the crevasse, but were of
opinion that it would be impossible until the river
went down. This is serious misfortune to the
people of ST. Bernard, it entirely cuts off their
communication with the city.

CREvAssE IN ST. JoHN-THE BAPrIsT.-We learn
from the lieschace1e, of the Sd inst, that the
levee gave way in front of the plantation of Mr..
Theodue Picou, on the left side of the river, last
Thursday, and as it was very high but for the
fact that there was second levee fortunately be-
hind the first, the most serious consequences
would have ensued. A force of over two hundred
negroes was quickly brought to the spot, and il
thought at last accounts, that the Aoo6
would be stopped before great damage could be
done.
