Intkkkotinq Muhdes Tbul: Iu Uuppa-lmnuock county, Virginia, a man nuuu-t Johnson is now on trial, charged with having murdered bis wife lust June. Thu case ex cites great interest, it bejug estimated that the mi lie of men in daily Mtemluncc exceeds the number ol voter in the county. Il appears, from thu Commonwealth's evidence, that Johnson had been in the habit of saying to his neighbors, shortly prior to his wife's death, when asked how his family wus, that all were well save his wife, whose death be would not be surprised to oecur at aoy time, as she was liable to Ills or spasms, or something of that nature, while her acquaintances proved her to be a woman iu good heulth, aud that sbo upon all occasions so cxpressei herself that, beiug iu this state of licullb, she died in forty minutes after drinking a glass of lemonade prepared ly Johnson urn that a post mortem examination and uualysis showed the presence of strychnine. The motive of the deed is alleged to have bceu an improper passion for niece of the wife, who visited the family, Pakaouay KxrxDiTinx: Br llio Janerio pupers to January 2G, received at New Yoik wo have some further news of the Fnruguay Expedition.

Tbe President of Paraguay visited Hum-uituou the 14th or December to inspect the fortifications. Ou the 2.th, no returned to Asuncion. The object of his visit, according to the Seminario, was to verify the condition of the fortifications, und to examine the drill of the troops. The Seminai in says that ho found everything iu the very best order, aud the troops only too anxious for the momeutof conflict to arrive. This armed peace, this attitude of permanent expectation, is wearisome they are fatigued with evolutions, exercises and sham tights; they loug impatiently for the reality.

The immediate imminence of war has decided tbe Government to recall those absent on leave to their several corps and ns these Lasten to they do so in the instant expectation of having fight. ConfeJeracimi states that there had passed up the river a Lcavy iron chain, designed to bar tbe passage of the Paraguay River to tbe North Americans. It is reported from New Orleans that the tilling up of the main passes of the Mississippi is seriously affecting that port. In the southwestern pass some vessels have been lying ninety days, and it is estimated that more than 100,000 bales of cotton are aground at tbe mouth of tbe river, against which bills, now maturing or matured, nave been drawn. A man who bad traveled last week through six counties in central Illinois, reports to the Chicago Jrihune, that winter wheat promises to make a fine crop, and that the farmers feel jreatly encouraged at the prospect.

The Carlinville Democrat says of the wheat iu that portion of tbe State (near the capital), that the crop will be little short of an average crop, although the breadth of wheat sown last Fall was much less than usual.

Treated, A Puilaum.I'Iiu Drunvicb Drummed out or Holly Hi'Mkus Lex Jalinnit For a week or two past a Philadelphia drummer, namci Young, representing tlio exploded firm llotikius, misled A bus been iu North Mississippi, settling up the uffair of tho establishment. Jlo went from this place one day last week to Holly Springs, having iu his possession a requisition issued by the Gov-ernur of Pennsylvania upon the liovernor of Mississippi, Ji-iiiuudiog the person of Mr. II. Uiuwii, formerly a inerchaut of Holly Springs, who failed ubouta rear ago.

It was alleged that Mr. Brown had obtuined goods from die IMuiuJidphia house to tbe amount of about 1,000, uuder false pretences. When Young arrived at Holly Springs, he placed the requisition iu the Lauds of an oilt-rrr, who was directed to proceed to the residence of Mr. Browu, about nine miles from towu. But while tho officer was proceeding to discharge tliul duty, it commenced beiug talked around the streets, and steps were inaugurated ut once to prevent Young taking Browu to Fhiliulclphia a prisouer.

Soon after supper, a crowd of citizen summoned Young to appear immediately at tho court house, tu answer charges which would there be preferred against him. Arrived at the court house, Hen. Tim. Taylor appeured as Frosfcuting Attorney, and I La lion. .1.

W. Flu for the defeiice. We are uol sufficiently informed to give a minute detail of tho evidence, but the result of tho trial was, that Mr. Young wus required to give a heavy bond, thut he would produce aud publicly burn the requisition next morning, and thut lie would leave the city, oe'ver to return. Next morning ho faithfully complied with the requirements, and left ou the first train.

Wheuever a Southerner goes to the city where this man Young and his confederates reside, iu quest of property in the shape of slaves, he is set upon iu a like manuer, aud we are sure they will have the geueroaity to excuse our citizens for doing tbe same thing. Aik I'upublUlictl letter of John Vly llo Kavori oliort Mrrinon. The following Utter from John Weslev, to his friend, Mrs. Johnson, of New York, is said never to have been published, until it appeared in the Boston Journal, few days since Losdos, Feb. Id, 1777.

But, if we build, I can only visit yon I cuppoie about the middle of June. If it will suit your convenience, I shall hope to see yon then. If eny, then, of the preachers exceed their time (about one hour In the whole service) I hope you will always remind them of the Methodist rule.

'lhe Richmond Enquirer having attacked the Hou. Jobu Minor JJotta, on account of a speech made at Court House in I860, and Laving called for a correct copy of that speech, Mr.

Botta lias sent them one with the following endorsement "No garbling, I hope tbe reaJers of The AV yuirer will be informed that I have supplied the document called for. J. M. B. The Enquirer then makes the subjoined extract from the speech I am one of tho.ie who think Slavery, In tbe abstract, la much to be deprecated and while I think that, as at present organised in the Southern States, it is a humanizing, civilizing, and Christianizing institution, as all must agree who will take the pains to oompare the present condition of our slaves with the original African race yet I regard it as a great calamity that it ever should have been entailed upon us; and I should look upon that man as the first and greatest benefactor of his country, whose wisdom could point out to uj some practical and satisfactory means by which we could, through our own instrumentality and without interference from our neighbors, provide for the ultimate emancipation and removal of all elaves in the country.

I speak of this as a desirable thing, especially to the owners of slaves, who, I think are the chief sufferers, but, at the same time, I fear it is perfeotiy Utopian to attempt it but I have seen too much difference between the enterprise, the industry, and the prosperity of the free and the slave States, to doubt the advantages we would derive from it if it could be accomplished. The National Era says, that the results of the campaign in Virginia thus far, may be stated as follows "The Democracy have put in nomination for Governor a man who was so ardent an Emancipationist iu 1847, that to secure that beneficent end to his own section, le-wttB willing to see the State divided. These liberal sentiments he seems to have maintained up to the time of his becoming a candidate for Governor. It is also shown hat the Ajax of the Opposition, the Hon. John M.

Botts, uttered Anti-Slavery sentiments in 1850, in a speech at Powhatan Court House, which he has still the courage and integrity to stand by. N. Y. 'Jrihune.

Lancaster Fencibles Election oOjJicen: On Monday avening last, the Lancaster Fencibles held a speoial election of officers to fill vacancies caused by reeignation. Charles R.

Frailey was sleet-ed Quarter Master in place of Dr. Win. Wbitedde, resigned Henry E. (Haymaker, 2nd Sergeant, iu place of H. Hook, resigned and Dr.

Samuel Fahnestock 4th Coporal, in place of J. L. Adams. At the same meeting six propositions for membership wrre received, and two new members elected, who bad been proposed at a former meeting. We also understand that the eempany have adopted a new code of By-Laws, much more stringent than the old ones, and similar to those of the National Guards of Philadelphia.

Judging from the steady accessions to the ranks of this company, they will be able to muster seventy men ranks, by tho return of their anniversary in May next, and we but do them simple justice in saying that a more respectable, good looking, orderly, and better disciplined volunteer corps oannot be found in the service. Belonging, as we do to the no fighting regiment, the best wish we can tender is that their good looking phizes may never be disfigured by tha grim and bloody mcnBter, War. But should fate (which means ambitious and unprincipled rulers) decree otherwise, we hare no doubt the Fenoibles would fully sustain their character on the jloody field of Mars.

Nswararxi Office tor Bale: 'I he establishment of the American Republican and Chester County Democrat is offered foreale.

The proprietor, Mr. Geo.

He denies the report that his paper has lost in circulation ou account of its refusal to support the present National Administration, aud is prepared to show tho contrary to the satisfaction of the purchaser.

The paper hks been published fifty years, and iu no year siuce Mr. P. has had it, has it yielded less than $1000 over all expenses. Where is Mrs. Ccnmnohan Bcrdfll? A few days ago we saw it stated that this notorious personage was discovered incog in one of the Southern States.

Now she it located in Western Pennsylvania. The lireenaburg Herald of the ICtU Bays, Mrs. Cunningham, of Burdril notoriety was io ltlairsville, a few days since. She was seeking to place her daughter in charge of the principal of the Female Seminary. Several gentlemen, who had seen her during tbe excitement iu her case in New York, recognized her; she became aware of it and soon decamped.

She dresses well, travels in a fine equipage, aud has a gentleman who accompanies her as agent. The great question of Have we a Bourbon amongst us having been disposed of, we may now enquire, Have we a Mrs. C. B. among us, or does that curiouB woman possess the power of Metempsychosis Newspaper Mortality There appears to be a regular mortality existing among newspapers, the Bame as among communities.

It has been asserted that but one newspaper in ten started in this county enters upon a second year. This statement is perhaps exaggerated, hut there is no doubt that more money has been lost in Printing offices than in any other business requiring the same outlay of capital. A cotemporary gives as a reason for this mortality, that some little town wants to be blown into notoriety a subscription of a few hundred dollars is made up, and somebody is deluded byTair promises to start a newspaper. Probably one half the subscription is never paid the fair promises are remembered only to be broken. Necessity or pride keeps the publisher at work until bis money (if he had any) is exhausted, and his credit is utterly gone.

Then comes the natural result the paper stops, with debts owed and owing, enough, it may be, to balance, but never paid, and a general growl comes up against the swindling printer. Newspaper publishing, like every other kind of business, must have a demand as well as a supply, and unless it is self-sustaining almost from the commencement of its publication, it cannot be expected to survive for any great length of time. The Democratic City Convention of Philadelphia, met yesterday to nominate candidates for City Treasurer and City Commis-sioner. Dr. James McClintock was nominated or City Treasurer, and Henry S.

PARAGRAPHIC VARIETY, Colonel Preston, the American minister at the court of Spain, has written to his friends, since his arrival at Madrid, that he has been very kindly received, but states that intimations have been thrown out to him, that in no event will he be tolerated should he pro-)ose the purchase of the Island of Cuba upon the basis of the Slidell proposition. Many of the most prominent politicians in Washington assert that nothing can prevent he calling of an extra session about the first of September.

A correspondent of The Boston Transcript says that the frescoes in a villa near Rome, which Mrs. Stowe refers to in a poem in The Independent as showing the chastening in-luence of Christian art, and which she ascribes to Raphael, are merely imitations of Pompeiian frescoes preserved in the Museum at Naples. Raphael of course never saw them.
