An arrival at New Orleans by the steamer Mex ico from Gravtown, furnishes intelligence to th* Picayune of some high handed outrages upon the Americans in Nicaragua, whch are attributed to i Rntish intrigue*. The feelings of the people of that'State have undergone an er.tire change to wards us, and the Americans them have ail been murdered on the road, an*! the authorities will take no steps to bring the murderers to justice. The 1 natives will neither buy from noriell to the Am r (Cans, and several merchants who were doing busi | ness in the country have been ruined. This state 1 i of things is attributed to the intrig’ es of the English | consuls at Gravtown aud Realejo. Jj’ The following extraordinary report we find in the N. O. Picayune of the 6lh inst. ; TV Pmmntne f'l**.—'!'J*e examination of M'me Vietonne Kotisseil, charged with poisoning her husband, Charles Roussel, a tailor, living on St. Charles street, was commenced yesterday after noon at 5 o'clock, before Recorder Caldwell.— Mr. Robert Preaux appeared for tlie accused. It was proved on th* part of the prosecution j that on the night of the aUth March last, the ac I cused came to the house of Mr. Martin and told j him that her husband had taken poison. Martin i went with her to see her husband and found him lying down, aud asked him why he had poisoned himself. He said he could not answer. A doc tor soon after came m with another man. when the deceased said, “1 au lost, I am poisoned Medicine was procured and administered to bun. Afterwards a tailor aud a shoemaker came in, am! j the tailor asked the deceased how it happened. He said, as was customary, that he and his wife j had had a difficulty ; that hts w-:fe had in her pos session some arsenic. She told him that she loved I him, aud he said let us prepare a dose of arsenic. for each of us, and die together. She accepted i the proposition, and said she was tired of life Two doses were then prepared by the deceased. He took up me of them and madt some objections, when his wife told him he was a coward and dared not drink it. He then immediately drank off the portion. The accused said that she had i procured the arsenic s une time since for rats. At- . I ter the deceased drank the poison, he said he told j his wife to go away, and that in a few hour* sh would be free. The deceased cauie to this coun try 18 months ago. and, of late, appeared to be out of bis mind. He frequently came to the house j of Martin, and said he would not live with his wife, and that he was -unhappy. He bad fre quently expressed his intention to destroy himself; and would go without food for seven or eight days. He said that his wife pretended to talk in her sleep, and say that she had other lovers. An apothecary proved that at the tune the de ceased was in France, the accused came to his i store aud purchased five cents’ worth of arsenic, U'Lch arac a i t*Tvi« ic-iif ts\ L- . 1 I ■unlema Capt. Poriio testified that on Wednesday week iast there had been a quarrel! between the de ceased and the accused, who had come to bis office and complained of her husband'* treatment. She was much bruised, and said her husband had put her out of doors. There were no witnesses for the defence. The Recorder said that he knew of no statute which punished an accessory to the crime of sui cide, and ordered the accused to be discharged. 1j" The prize ticket to Jenny Lind's first con cert irt Louisville, brought #100, Mr. Tripp [wring the purchaser.

The New York Journal of Camme roc has ■ let ter from a correspondent, dated “ Nevada City, California, Jan. 24," m whichjtbe writer saya: “ Some of my previous letters have given you a pe- p into our election see ns, and our Alcalde's method of proceeding in civil eases. Here areone or two mstaneea of a very common mode of admin istering justice to criminals ta our moist. A drunken Englishman, named Divine, murder ed his wife under eirrums’anres of unnautl cruel ty During thei whole residence in fb-nrrrtawii. she had supfearicd hint and their children by her, own industry, lie ask d her one morning far some money to gamble w,th, but she told him to wait until he was sober. He rushed across the room i for a pistol, hot she ante ,paled hum and threw it »■ • bucket of water. He then leaped ram the. snatched a rifle from the attwulder of a pas ser-by, returned and shot her through the heart. ' It w is Sunday, and as usnwl the places of reaort w. re died by intm rs, who invariably apend that holiday in town. The report of a nfle in the street was nothing unusual, but the tale of'horror flew as only rumor can fly, and in five minutes the house was filled. In such a country as ours, and under such e.reumstances as these, men act rattier. then speak. A neighboring “ Hound Ti nt1’ (our 1 gambling houses are often turned into court rooms , on account of their sise; was selected as the scene of trial. The prisoner was Ird in and then, before 1 a word was spoken, another party brought io the] body if he* wife, just as she fell, with the dark! blood o<>7;ng from herd-reast. She was gen ly laid ! on a large table near her husband. This sigh* stung the people into frenzy. No one thought of wasting words in a trial. The prisoner was seised, and hurned towards a little eminence overlooking l the village, where the noose of a lariat swung sig mfieantly from a tree. Just at this moment, a man of great influence with the people of that vicinity attempted to per suade them to postpone their design until a Coro ner’s inquest should be held upon the body and a summary trial, but still a trial, had, a Her their ver dict. With much difficulty he succeeded, on con dition that the inquest and trial should both be held upon that day; and, as the Coroner was at An express was sent to Coloma, ami, to save time, a jury cmpannclied to act instantly upmi his arri val. They sat together in the tent with the pnso- ■ n r an>l the body. The mob waited outside, but . were no* unemployed. A de*-p pit was da? at the foot of the tree, and all the solemn furniture of the gravo prepared. As four o’clock approached, the silence of the mob was broken by deep whispers and hoarse mur murs. Hides, pistols, and bowi - knives were free ly displayed. This did not escape the notice of til-- jury, and they began, not unnaturally, to fear fur their own safety. At last when the sun was low in the west, the mob could wait no longer, but tore up the sides of the tent and rushed in, just in tune to see the las' jury mau escaping bv a back way. Ti.ey went at their ta«k without a word. At the head of a long pro**. ssiori, th" mur defer maw tied to Ins gallows and the body of his wife was borne close behind him. The children —thank Heaven’—were not there forgotten. A smaul box, marked. “ fa- tkr Orpkani,” was na led to the tree, and many an ounce was poured into it from the purses of those who followed the father to his death. The bn suspicion, and examined before the proper authorities. During th-- exam.nr.'ion, «ev tral circumstances were discovered winch left scarcely a doubt of his guilt. J ust be fore the end of 1! is examination, a party of men with blacken ed fac. rushed into the r<»>m. and th*ir leader, with a dexteriou* w htrl of the ruthi. lassoed the criminal across the room, and m a moment dragged him outside. Every one rushed out. Tjie Sheriff, calling all lovers of law and on! r to las assistance,! attempted a recapture. He was backed by a large party, but many ranched upon the other side. Af ter an oUstmute fight, the prisoner was retaken arid put under a strong guard. No one offered to ar rest the lynchers. It is dou’ ful how the matter will end. The lynchers are strong in numbers, and may repeat, their a tempt upon a large scale. The tragedy is yet incomplete, but however the affair may end, it will suli be a tragedy. uh Ilanrin:. Dr. Pitch, m one of his lectures on the uses of the lungs, and on the mode of preserving health, says : Dancing is the king ami queen of in door o-i Cise. It is suitable tor ail classes and ages, both ' sexes. It is a in «*t elegant an 1 in ist exh derating exercise. It is one of the most ucaiit .mil one of the most salutary. 1 do not speak of it as a dissipation, as an exhiierating and valuable exer cise. Among llie exercises it is second to none.— It is extremely suitable for the sedentary, for in valids, and for consumptives. 1 have known one of the worst cases of consumption l ever knew cured bv dancing alone, practised daily for many mouths.

Thu golden house of Nero is a mass of ruins, but the aqua Claudia itill pours into Home its limpid stream.

It may be that London will share the fate of Babylon, and nothing be left to mark its site save mounds ol crumbling brickwork; the Thames i will continue to flow as it does now. And if any work of art should stilt rise over the deep ocean of tune, we may well believe that it will be neither a palace or a temple, but some vast adueduct or 1 renervmr,- and if any name should still flash through ' antiquity, it will probably be that of a man whom his day sought the happiness of his fellow men, rather than their glory, and nuked his memory to : ime great work of national utility and benevolence.
