WOOD-LAWN RETREAT.
fIMIK subscriberinvites the attention ot thepub-
X lie to Hilt place of entertainment. It is de
sired solely for ladies and gentlemen, and 110
amusements are piaetiseu there, which areuudttor
the observa ion ot ladles. It does not become him
to speak of the dinners which he ran furnish at the
sDortrst notice, though he has at all times, all the
luxuries that the Ri hmond market and the country
round the city can afford; nor of his wines, though
he challenges comparison with any cellar in Vjf.
p uia; nor of tb«' recreations and amusements which
his guests wnl tiud the e. though they areasnumer
oas as they are innocent; no of thf: accommoda
tions, natural snd artiheiai, which the Retreat af
turds. Aii he wishes is, that the public will come
and see, and if they do not say, that it is the very
place the town has al ways wanted, and situated at
the very dstaiice at which it ought to be situated,
he will be willing to acknowledge that he has de
ceived himseit, anJ thereby cheated o'hers. It is
at the proper distance, lor it is three miles from
town; it is m the proper situation, for it is on the
Brooke Turnpike, a tine carriage road, it is proper
ly fixed, for the rooms are on the inusi approved
modern scale for convenience, and fitted with a
luxury almost unknown in the country. But my
description can satlefv no body. Cuuie'and see for

I'HE DAILY DISPATCH
Later fkoji texas.
By the arrival of the steamship Yacht. Capt.
I ftoiupson, we have received dates from Gal
veston to the 16th and Brownsville to toe 10th
insiant.
The Brownsville r lag contains a summary
?| 'h® corrspondence between Mr. Waddell,
U.S.Consul at Mutamoros, and Gen. Avalos,
on the subjret of the firing into the steamer
and the recent murders and de
predations on the frontier.
The letter jroro Air. Waddell relates to the
recent firing into the steamer Camanche, and
other depredations, which the Consul assures
uHP' 'h® l hs credibly informed hud
,L C T mi,t ' d peisons owing allegiance
;? Mexican nation, and with the approval
• "l"*' authorization of the military
uthority. He a*k» mlorination in the premi
ses, intimating that such depredations may
' to serious results between the two Gov
ernments.
h«A° 'Hi" en * A* o ' o * replies by stating that
b ®f n ,nf ormedthat the firing into the
r.f ? an ?he was caused by the officers
i., . avin S killed a white cow belong
seniefi . rev,n °« an,J »hat when Trevino pre
and u Pttynlenl he was iftiulte(l
bed •ittin "i ? 'Maintains that as the boat
Dronenv f m ■ XlCan bank 10 ,ake ,he
property of a Mexican citizen by force, they
SSte i!f UlO fire iu, ° he '« 'reat her as a
pirate m consequence. With respect to >be
fc da r„ n R COran,iUeJ . St C * m P acua 8, Agua
l»pgru,&un Rosano and divers other places
as also the firing from the Mexican bank uptxl
a party ol American citizen* sent from Brown*.
* to *» UI 7 their murdered countrymen, he
positively denies all knowledge, and intimates
the possibility of their having been committed
by struggling hands of filibusters, under tbe
name ol Mexican subjects.
Gen. Avalos then winds up his letter in a
thorough bragadocio style, worthy a veritable
liouibastes Furioso, giving us to understand
that so long as the heuds of the recent move
nient against Mexico, of whom he mentions
quite a list, are allowed to run at large, we
need not look lor security in the future, nor be
surprised to have the country overrun an<i Laid
waete by red-handed men liom the Mexican
bunk.
I'lie Flag promises to translate the reply of
Gen. Avalos into English, und says it is un
able to discover one single word of truth in
bis statement. The Rio Bravo says the story
about the officers ot the Camanche killing a
cow is a sheer fabrication.
The Gcli> Discoveries in Australia.—
The despatches ot Air. Lutrobe, Lieutenant
Governor ol Vic orin, convey the most vivid
picture ol the extent and value of these discOv*
ries ol gold, and of their effect on the popula

ing my visit, the washing of two tin dishes of
the clay ot'ibout 20 inches in diameter, the
yield ol which was no less thuti eight pounds
weigh* of pure gold." The average produce
ol this spot wus es minted for some time at
about 700 ounces and upwards per diem. But
even this wussoon surpassed by th« discoveries
at Mount Alexander. The gold raised there in
December was calculated by hundredweights,
and arrived in the cities on the coast at the
rate ol about two tons u week. Some 20,000
persons were soon congregated iu the district.
Bullarat was comparatively deserted, and,
trom the geuerul prevalence all over the colo

gold has hitherto been found, Mr. Lit robe de
clares that lie can "contemplate no limit to
the discoveries or to the result of the opening
ol these fields."

richness ol their eloquence, whilst music, with
its ''voluptuous sweil," enhaucedthe pleasure

A Dreadful Murder in Anderson Town*
ship—Arrest of the Murderer.—We learo
from the Cincinnati! Times, thai great excite*
menl existed in that county, on the afternoon
of the 18th inst., owing to the wilful murder
of Mr. John Moore, by John Lowry. The
particulars, as fur as they can learn, are as
follows: i
Moore and Lowry have been engaged as
partners in the manufacture of churcoul for
some time. Lowry lived in the family of
Moore, and for some time the Utter had sus
pected the furiner of a corrupt intimacy with
iiis (Moore's wife.) He accused him of it a few
days since, and from that time, a personal en
counter between them has been expeeted.—
Yesterday afiernoou, our informant states,
Moore was silting in his house, wheu Lowry
approached him, and said—"John, 1 am going
to kill you." Moore replied, '"Don't do that,
for 1 w ant to live as long as I can," at the
same time running for an uxe iu one corner of
the room. Lowry instantly pulled out a pistol
and fired at Moore. Two slugs from the
pistol entered Moore's heud, killing him in
stantly.
Lowry immediately left the house, and fled
towards Clermont county. He was pursued
and arrested in that county by constable Wm.
Hall. He wus taken back to Anderson town
ship for examination before a Magistrate, but
the excitement became so great (hat constable
Hall thought it advisable to bring hiin to this
citv. He called lo his aid a strong guard of
citizens, and it was ouly by the greatest ex
ertions that they prevented the excited crowd
from lynching the prisoner on the spot where
the murder was committed. Lowry was
placed in the watch-house last night, and
this morning committed to jail to await a
hearing.
A Serpent in a Railwat. —Recently, to
wards, evening, the travelers journeying to
Paris by the train from Havre, were greatly
terrified by an extraordinary incident. Hie
(rain carried a collection of wild beasts which
were destined to appear ut the Hippodrome, in
a representation of a piece called the "Christian
Martyr." The animals were under the charge
of M. Herbert, a friend of Gerard, the lion
tamer. The collection wa» accompanied by u
boa consiriclor, 17 feet in length, which was
intended os a present to the ditector of the
Hippodrome. Tbesrrpent was contained in a
box suspended under the van which held the
beasts Whether lite bo* was too snail or the
animal too large, muy be doubtedj but the
serpent was dissatisfied, and breaking one ol
ihe »id«-s of ita prison, wound ita way to the
top of the train, and amused itself by passing
froiu one carriage to another. When it had
promenaded in Ibis manner anperceived for
nobody know* how long, it announced iut
I roe nee by thrusting its bead up close to the
engine driver. To describe the cry of terror
which ihe poor man sent op, would be impos
siLle The traia was immediately stopped,
und M. Herbert, with two African assistants,
took measures for capturing the reptile, which
wound itself about the machinery of the loco
motive, and was ouly d-tec ted with much
difficulty, and secured in a box stronger than
Ihe first. Although the serpent had not visited
those ia the ioterior of tbo carriages, the
passengers by the train were exceedingly
nervous, and expressed a strong disliks to
accompany the boa to Paris.

Dr. John Boil: Dear Sir—l have ae«»n the moat
marvellous cure of one of my patients. by Tour
valuable medicine—an old lady, who bad been af.
dieted from ber childhood with scrofula, and va.
nous disease* of the brain. She waa 60 yeara old. It
had run lute something like leproay, and ahe waa
». frightful creature my eyea ever beheld. I
called in Dr. McFadden, a very fine physician to
consult with me in re arion to her. We »-•r' to
the conclusion that it waa out of our power to re
lieve her; but, on golug to my office, f accidentally
picked up one of your journals, wnen, on seeing
the wonderful cures your Sarsaparilla had effected,
1 resolved to try the experiment in thia case. I
took her two bottlea of it, after taking which I per
ceived a great change. 1 took her some more. She
la now taking the sixth bottle, and 1 consider her
entirely cured. I take great pleasure in reco®.
men. ling yonr Sarsaparllla to the afflicted oublic.
Yours, respectfully,
, JOHN M. ROSS, X. D.
1, Thomas A Ringo, of Graves county. Kentucky,
for the benefit of mankind generally, do hereby cer
tify, that on or about the Kith day ol October W47
I was attacked with a very severe pain in the lower
part ol the abdomen, which lasted but a tew min
ut* s, and moved into tie lelt hip, and continued
exceedingly painiul for about five days, during
which time 1 had a very light (ever. At the end of
that time the fevar ceasnd, and the pain abated for
a day or two, after which it again returned, and
was much worse than before. X>uring%U this time
I was under medical treatment From a short time
after I waa taken, I was unable to walk or sit up •
the hip in whieh the pain was so bad commenced
rising, until some time in January, when it burst
and a number of pieces of bone came out aa many
aa twenty, at least. Some of the pieces were three
fourths ol an inch long. Some time after thia, a
hard knot appeared on my right hip, also oneoa
my right wrist, and one on my leg, below my knee.
1 continued to get weak and worse, and pain made
its appearance in my right shoulder, and would
move in my breast and stomach. At this time all
persona gave me up to die. A physician then told
me that, aa a last reined;, 1 had setter tue Mr. Bull'a
Fluid Extract of Sarsaparilla After the use of the
second bottle, the knot on my wrist commenced
getting soft. I opened it, and a day or rwo after, a
piece of bone came out. My wriat soon get well,
and le< ntinued to gain strength. After 1 used (he
third battle, I co-Id get no more for some four
weeks, a tier which time 1 succeeded in getting three
more bottles. Alter using the three last bottle*, the
knot on my hip became s;»lt; it was opened, and
some corruption ran out, together with a —»»"
piece ot bone, and the sore soon got well, and the
knot entirely disappeared. The sore on my leg ab»
opened, and a piece of bone came out. 1 continued
the use ut the daraaparilla until I used twelve bot
tles, and am now entirely well, and able to do drily
Itbor. Itmay seem strongs to some, but 1 will Here
state that, during the summer of 1849,1 coughed
up three pieoea of bone, which can now be seen afc
the teaidence of my uncle, Thomas Meal, when I
now live, and if any persons doubt thia statement.
1 will be happy to convene with them, ii they wtU
calloame.

Can the reader believe, after reading the descrip

a few human beinga suffering with disease that rt
fuse to give Bull's Saraaparilla a trial It ia indeed
hard to believe, but nevertheless it ia toe true.
What kind of testimony would it take to coo vine*
