After making every possible effort for the recovery of the lost sum, anil all proving ineffectual, they proceeded on their return, and arrived at Watertown, where all gave credence to their statement of the occurrence at Sehenecteday ; and the missing funds have been satisfactorily accounted for to the Government, nothing worthy of note transpiied till the spring of 1015, when Mr. W. again made preparations for going to Albany to receive the Govcnment funds. In order to secure from anv felonious attempts, he decided to go on horseback and return with the money in his portmanteau. i .Strange as it may appear, Iiis wife again iui sisted in accompanying him.

He could perceive them talking in a low tone at all times of the night, but so indistinctly that he could make out nothing of any consequence. However, by some means or other, he came tc the conclusion that they were about to leave the country, and he immediately determined upon adespernio effort to ascertain the correctness of I Iiis suspicions. Accordingly he imparted to Mr. F., his associate bondsman, a full account of all he had been witness to, and his strong belief that they had or knew something of the money. They immediately concerted apian to tötest the truth of their suspicions; as a precautionary measure, a physician ofeniinenee was consulted as to how long a person might be kept under water and resusicated.

Williams, of Kentucky, who icurned on the Tenessee from Nicaragua, with the following details of the opera1 ions and battles of Masaya and GianaJa. in the latter of which he was a participator. Gen. Walker was well advised of ihe movements of the enemy, and with his usual caution he kept his infoimation and plans from the public. About the 1st of October, the order was given for the out garisons at fan Carlos, Rivas, Tipitapa, and.-Managua, to concentrate on Granada. Shortly afterwards the guard at Malaya was ordered to fill back upon the capital. It at once became evident that Gen. Walker had determined to draw the enemy on, and choose his ground for the battle. On the evening of the 1 Ith he left (uanada w ith 1,100 men for Masava. This is a town situated some fifteen miles from Granada, containing ßüOÜ inhabitants. Nature has endowed it with many advantages. It has two plazas; in the centre of the principal one stands a large church, on cither side a few shops. Tho houses are principally built of adobe. It was here that Gen. Walker had determined to meet the forces of Ibe allies. Th.e troops marched nearly all night over a very muddy and j slippery road, and before the morning of j the 12th were before ihe town, which was in possession of the enemy, w ho were said to be about 4000 strong. o Ucing advised of the approach of Gen. Walker, they had advanced on the road from the town with a strong body of troops. Kither side of the road was lined , with high bushes and cactus. At. daybreak General

Something SEX.sißLn. The following seusiblo advice is taken horn Hall's Journal of Health. "Dress children warmly, woolen flannel next to their persons during tho whole year. By every consideration protect the extremities well. It is an ignorant barbarism which allows a child to have bare arms, and legs and feet, even in summer. The circulation should be invited to the extremeties warmth doos that; cold repels it. It is at tho hands and feet wo begin to die. Those who have cold hands and feot are never well. Plenty of warmth, plenty of substantial food and lipo fruits, and plenty af sleep, and plenty of joyous outdoor exercise, would save millions of children annually."
