The COrdOyu COlOniStS,

w e had n conversation with Mr.. } John
Lane, latel ly arrived from Cordova val.
ley. He was one Of thc twrntv.six
colonists arrested by The Liberals AMI
detained some weeks in custody. RE
says that the Liberal General, Figaro,
was with some troops IN the valley,
sloshlng around, eating and drinking at
tho expense of his noble friends, the
American coonlsts, whom he so loved
that he made an appointment to speak
to them at some public place, upon the
condition of affairs, upon the good wishes
and intentions Of his Government
towards them. and upon topics of mutual
interest. He surrounded and had them
seized by his band, anl seized their
property, riiicl their pockets, drove ufr
their stock and sold their agr cultural
implements. After TINS dis posing of
all their available property .c marched
them to Esaclaw, across the G,rlc ia.
lapa, across the Rio San Domingo to a
Rancho, to another Rancho to Tusra
peck, and to the Rio Grandr, marching
over mountains, and wading rivers and
across deserts until his shoes were com
pletely worn out, his strength pxhau ted
and his patience exhausted, and his
colonial expectations v"nqnishcd.
Once the prisoners were drawn M to
be shot, but the firing of gun, near by
interrupted the little interesting proceed
ing, and they were spared. Ne.r the
Rio Grande they were entertained by
Mr.. Joseph Soublet, a creole from New
Orleans, who furnished them food and
transportation from his ranches across
the lakes and arms Of Blanco bay.
Figarro's band sent them to Gen Gar.
cias command. This latter General gave
them transportation to Vera Cruz,
where Mr.. Lame arrived hatless and
bare looted. TO say That Mr.. Lane is
done with Mexico and Mexcans; that
he considers that people the repository
of all the surplus trcachery ofthe world,
conveys but q very fa,nt idea Of his dis
gust with his Mexican experience. He
was prisoner about four weeks, and
in that time marched hundreds Of miles
aioot in the broiling sun for accepting
an invitation to listen to speech from
n Mexican General He represents
Garcia as the only native gentleman lie
met Thinks Max is playing ont fast.
lIo is sending specie trains to Vera Cruz
daily, worth one to three MILL, ms of
dollars. Thinks the colonists have a
chance TO make plenty Of fun, but little
money. He tried it year and sunk all
his means, and has returned to Texas to
stay Galveston Ne,Us.

Mysterious Hospital Patient,

Our exchanges, by answering our
query, may bring joy to some fond heart,
that nourns as dead, an unfortunate
man whom we saw at the hospital in
this place on yesterday. So sad pic.
tnre as his anxious face presents it has
not often been our lot to look upon.
No account whatever can be gathered
of him here, When the United States
forces took possession of Tallahassee,
they found this man in the (hen) Con.
tederate hospital, and he has not been
heard to speak since. His face over
wears an expression Of the most anxious
care. The moment any one enters his
room no turns with an imploring glance,
intensified by an expression OF fear
On that look CAP never be forgotten
SO full of petition, dread, and voc He
wrings his hands necessarily and seems
just uitcrng some earnest request, but
never speaks. Repeated efforts have
been been made TO induce him to write
But he takes the pen mechanically, as
he does everything else, and gazes up
into your face with that same earnest
look of underlined supplication and
dread
When lie is left alone with his food
lie eats heartily, and until recently his
general health has been good. He 10
now little cmaciated. Occasionally
he has been known to creep steallmly
to his window, and open it cautiously
But in doing so he seems to dread some
catastrophe.
We have made considerable enquiry
about him in this city, and can gather
no clue rs to The exact time when he
was brought to Tallahassee, or from
where. One account supposcs that he
was brought up here month or two
before the surrender, from the hospital
at Monticello. Another says that some
Confederate soldier who has seen him
here, remembers that he saw him in The
Natural Bridge ligh.--,hat hc was then
wearing a MAJORS star, and thai. he
fought bravely. lie .snpposrs that the
explosion Of shell near his head para.
lyzcd his speech and deprived him par.
tally of reason.
1t is strange that he should have re
manned here so long without being
identified. He is a man of commanding
figure, we should think six feet one or
tive inches i'll height. If strong &nd ro
bust won!d weigh one hundred and
eighty pounds, seems to be between
lhirty.fvc and forty years of age, has a
prominent forehead, dark hair, large
grey eye, and rather prominent nose
10 is as docile as a child. obeying me
clanically every command and Will,
such an expression rs would move the
heart Of II stone. = Tallahassee (FM. J

A PERpLEXED BRIDEGROOM.

Some days since very rustic and
inartistic couple, residents Of Ken
lucky, near tho Tennessee line, con-
cfudcd marriage to be their destiny,
and with this idea, came to Western
Athens, dcsirous of sacrificing them
selves to IIymcn at the earliest oppor-
tunity.
In duo time they arrived in this
city and repairing to the Spcnscr
House, informed clerk Andrew Blum
that they were extremely intent on
pcrpetrating matrimony, and that
nothing could thwart their purpose.
Mr.. Blum, so far from wishing to pre-
won't their amiablo immolation, made
every effort to facilitate thcir design,
and so we'll did lie succeed, that in
less than an hour "Jancs'' and "Je-
NINA" were welded as firmly as lay
in the capacity of a Clergyman to bind
them.
The clerk, after the ceremony had
been performed, believing that all
new married people ought to be as
we'll accommodated as possible, gave
them a parlor and bed room on the
third floor, and bid thcm ssgoo& even
ing" about ten O'Clock, not neglecting
to wish them every possible bliss.
The twain meekly followed the SER
want to the. rooms, and were left alone
there for tho night tho clerk think
ing NO moro of them until about two
o'clock when, sitting dosing in easy
chair behind the counter in the office,
he was aroused byNa voice saying :
Look here, DIR. Clerk, oh, Mr.. Clerk,
I'd like to speak to you just a aminit,
and ROW." y
MIR. Blum opened his eyes, and be-
held his rustic friend, hatless and
coatless, with a flushed face and dis
hevelled hair and such generally dis
arranged attire as indicated that he
had been undergoing some very vio-
lent exercise.
"Well, sir, Of what benefit can be
to you ~
"Why, why, I didn't like to trouble
you, and don't know how you fellows
does things in this big town but,

"But what7 my good FRIEND" ques-
tfoned the clerk, anxious to free, tho
ruralist from his confusion, each mo-
ment on tho increase.
