THURSDAY. APRIL "a.

IMPORTS FOR THE 1sT QUARTER--Wc have received from the
COhector-GeDeraI a table 81 imports for the first quarter Of this
year, which We publish elsewhere. IL shows a very gratifying
Increase and setting aside the commercial revusiOn Of 1859, go
and oil, IS larger than the importation for the same quarter Of
90 and nearly as large as that Of '5S. And when we consider
that the importation is chiefly intended for home consumption
and not for whalers' use the prospect is still more cheering.
IL Verihes whas " have often said, that the depression of last
year was chiefly owing to the oyerstocking OF this market in
anticipation Of the change of the tariff ia 1850, and not to the
working OF the 10 per cent duties.
We copy the above from the last number Of
the POiynesian, and on looking further found on
its third page the following table:

DIANA sMlTE, THE HEROINE or THE
NORTHWEST.
A friend has kindly furnished us with
some interesting particulars 10 the history
of this young heroine.
She was born and Iaised IN the county
Of Jackson. 80 Her father is a consistent
and pious member of the Methodist Epis-
copal Church. and was leading . quiet.
peaceful, and useful life, until his country
Was invaded, when he called his cou ntry-
men to arms, and raised the first company
Of guerrillas, which he commanded until
his fall, when, by fraud and treachery
he was captured, and ever since has been
coufined ia loathsome dungeon at Camp
Chase, Ohio, without hope Of delivery,
unless our Government should intsrpose
aud procure his release.
Diana, his only daughter, is . beautiful
girl, aud has been 'tenderly raised. and
well educated She ia also member If
the VI 4. Church, and las stw.y. BEEN
regarded as very picus and exemplary.
She is descended from a race of unfinch-
ing nerve, and satisfied with nothing less
than freedom as unrestrained as the pure
air Of their mountiin home.
Her devotion to the cause Of Southern
rights. in which her father had uohly
engaged, has caused her, too, to feel the
oppressor's power. Although tender
and delicate flower, upon whose cheek
the bloom Of sixteen summers yet fingers,
she has'been five times captured BY the
Yankees, aud marched sometimes on
foot, in manacles, prisoner; onos
considerable distance to Ohio. at which
time she made Ler escape. She vas
never released. but in each instance
managed to escape from her guard. She,
too, has been in service she was ia sew
eral battles in which her father engaged
the enemy. Sine has sssn blood Gov Ike

than one Of the vile Yankees bite the
dust. She left her home 10 COMPANY
with the Moccssin Rangers, captain

line in safety. and i nov st the Birs
Sulphur Springs. .s h'.
She was accom- panied BY Mias Duskis
who has earned the proud distinction Of
heroine. On one occasion this fearless
girl was surrounded BY Fifty YANKEES and
Union men, when she went srushing
through their ranks With . daring that
struck terror to their craven hearts.
With her rife lashed across her shoul.
