Fkesh Fish. This delightful luxury, or a a good old neighbor lady of ours tised to say, this "melodious fruit,' has bce'n most plentifully dispensed among our good citizens for more than & week past. Pike over two feet in length, and bass weighing over eight pounds, hare of 1st been no very great strangers in our streets and upon our tables, and it stems that everybody and "the rest of mankind' didn't go a fishing, either. Kith hook an.l lne, or angry spear, Yuu claim the bass perhaps a sucker; Th latter surf, if it's lager leer Tbat oft J repaies ycur lips to pueler. If j-cuard fooled tbem with his ipear And got. the looming pike, And lest co run of his lager beer, Twas fcot too late to ttrik. Job a son caught the weighty bass, And never thought of fear; For he knew another way to pass, Without that lager leer. Whf n fto1s ere dead and ee!s can crawl, We'll fay no more of the 'water-haul;' Lest envy constitute a lore, And little ßshes s'ray from shore. Mr. Greeley, in a letter to the Tribune? says fcc joyful confidence that Kansas will be admitted as a free State by the present Congress. Exchange. We kave bad that same kind of "joyful confidence' ever since the bill passed organizing it into a Territory. Iailobisc. John Miller has settled among us, and opened shop in the Plymouth building, where he intends to carry on the Tailoring business to the satisfaction of all who may favor him with their p&lronng. See advertisement. Republican Costestios. It will be eeen by referring ro our New Advertise ments, that too citizens of Marshalt county, without respect to party, who are opposed to the repeal of the Missouri Compromise, the extension of Slavery in the Territories, end the present Administration, are requested to meet at le Court House in Plymouth on Saturday, May 3d, for the purpose of appointing delegates- to the Republican State Convention. In view of the manifest failure of the Maine Law, true and disinterested friends of Temperance are now beginning again to turn their attention and direct their effort to the use of moral means, especially in Massachusetts. The Newburypott Herald says: We notice that the Temperance men in the State, generally, are waking up to renewetl activity, throwing aside all carnal weapons and trusting to the truth and the powe of love and kindness, which must in the eid overcome all powers and principalities, opposed to the world's reformation. So long as they adhere to this position and do not allow themselves to be drawn aEide to attack and denounce those who disagree with them in measures, they will do good. Indiana State Fair. The premium list for 1856, for the State Fair, amounts to upwards of 66,000, .and by a resolution of the State Board, introduced by Mr.. Dennis, of Wayne, county, it is to be open "to all the world and the rest of mankind We have no douti it will be one of the most attractive Fair ever held in the North-West, and as it is open for the competition of the world, our citizens should lose no time in preparing articles of home manufacture for exhibition. Our citizens have the skill, the ingenuity, the energy, and the perseverence to compete favorably with the people of any other section of the country, and they should try all means to place the talent in requisition. Nothing has a greater leniency to develop and extend the resources of a State than these annual Fairs, and we hope, therefore, to see every good citizen take an active p,ul in making it a pride to the Stats and no bono? to its participant.

NEWS BY THE WASHINGTON.
The Peace Treaty not yet Signed, EXPEDITION IS SEARCH OF THE PACIFIC. Danish Sound Dues Proposed Settle ment Mr. Buchanan's Movements Brcad&tuffs Dull Prices Declined Provisions Unchanged. New York, April 13. The Washington arrived at 7 o'clock ; this morning, with Liverpool dates to the j 25th ultimo. rho Pence Treaty was not signed. Matters at the Paris Conference were not so harmonious owing to the difiicul- ! ties interposed by Prussia. Peace, however, was considered suustaniiaiiy certain. The British Admiralty have sent the steam frigates Tartaruä and Desperate in search of the Pacific. Th Copenhagen correspondent of the London Times states that the Danish Commissioner had submitted to the Copenhagen Confurence a proposal of capitalization of the Sound Dues, fixing thirty-five million Rix dollars as ihe medium of indemnity which Denmatk claims. The Uuited State having declined taking part in the Conference, the question would, in all probability, bo resolved without their co operation. Mr. Buchanan leaves Southampton April 9th, for home. lie had gone to Parist accompanied by Mr. Campbell, Amarican Consul at London, nnd Mr, Crosky, Consul for Southampton, and would visit the Hague before his return. According to" the London Times, the cause of the difficulties at the Paris Conference was a demand put forth by the Prussian Plenipotentiary to be admitted to 6ign the Treaty of Peace on tho same footing and in the same character as if Prussia had been a party to the alliance throughout. It is said that Russia supports Prussia in these pretensions. This took place at tho meeting of the 22J. Another meeting took place on the 24th, but nothing of its deliberations transpired. The opinion that the Conferonce would ultimately resolve itself into an European Congress is strqngly believed. The Times Crimean correspondent says the war paily still cherishes hopes that the negotiations may break down. "It may suit th? French to make concessions, but it ought not to suit us. They doubtless consider that they have done enough for honor and glory, and to revenge the reverses of 1812. They cannot afford war as England can, and their army, however numerous on paper, is dwindling sadly. Scurvy and fever are playing havoc in its ranks, and the mortality is said to bo &ne hundred and twenty per day." The Allies had commenced the demolishment of the inclosures and lints around Sevastopol. Ismael Pacha is increasing lis force. The army of Italy, General Mouraveiff, had reinforcements via Caspian Sea and Teflez. Italv. The See of Parma had again been laid under siege, owing to the frequent disturbances and assassinations. The government has becoina greatly alarmed, owing to the cattle murraiu, which is said to be spreading all over the continent. Advices from Hamburg state that Commodore Evatson had placed all the Russian forts in the Baltic in a stale of blockade. Advices from Paris state that Dost Mahmoud had taktn possession of Candahar, and that the Persian troops wero marching against him. A telegraphic dispatch from Jersey states that a courier, who was the bearer of a formal demand for a union of the Principalities, addressed to Count Waliski, had been arrested at Csernowistize.

The steamer Cortes, which left San Fran cisco on the 20 for San Juan took one hundred recruits for Walker's army. The Costa R.ican3 had sixteen killed and twenty-five wounded in their engagement with Schlesinger. An express which arrived at Punta Arenas, states that ninety of Walker's men were found dead, and that others were supposed to have perished in the wood. Official details from Gen. Mora are published in the San Jose journal?, and previous, accounts. They state that Cos ta Rice was in great excitement, and that the war was popular with all classes of citizens. Many foreign residents had tendered their services lo ihe Government. A levy of 0,000 men bad been ordered, and a loan of $100.000. Punta Arenas was full of-irroops under Parda Purlew. The principal army, three thousand strong, under Gen. Mora, was marching upon . Nicaragua, aud would cross the frontier in eight days. Gen. Mora, in a dispatch to the Minister of War, states that the attack lasted fourteen minutes, when the filibusters broke and fled terrified to the woods, closely followed by the Costa Ricans. The field was strewn with dead. Among the Costa Ricans, six officers were killed. Private letters state that at last accounts Gen. Mora had embarked for Punta Arc uas. Before his departure the foreign residents at Liberia, his then head quarters, gave him a public entertainment. The troops were in high spirits and well armed. The cholera and fever were making ravages in Nicaragua nmoug the natives and Walker's army. Some of Walker's people had taken the English mail from Greytown for Costa Rica. ' ' ' . '
The news of the defeat of Walker's army under Sehlesinger wns brought to Pa-
jnami by the Dutch steamer Emilie from San Jose. Colonel Smith was well fortified at Hacienda Santa Rosa, with four hundred men. when he was attacked, March 20;h, by a party of Costa Ricans. under GetterI al Mora snd entirely defeated. The nineteen prisoners who were martialed and shot by the Costa Ricans were chiefly Irish and German. Some accounts state lhal Walker's army was surprised. The Costa Ricans, after firing one volley, leaped tho walls and with knife and bayonet cut down all they encountered or took them prisoners. The San Jose Telegraph hoist the names of Fremont anil Blair as candidates for President and Vice President. Advices from Washington territory state that a body of Indians, fifteen hundred strong, were about to make another attack on the .settler.

The Aspinwall Courier of the 5th says that Schlesinger, with four hundred troops wns defeated near San J-se by five hundred Costa Ricans under Moore. Twenty American prisoners were shot. The Costa Ricau army was about to enter Nicarngua. The accounts however are meagre, and all from Costa Rican sources.

The Costa Rican loss was forty-five in killed and wounded, numbering several officers among the killed. It is reported that the Americans left ninety dead upon the field. The steamer Cortez with ninety recruits for Walker's army, was unheard of at San Juan Del Sur at the last accounts.

We are indebted to Conductor Kussel, of the Cleveland and Pittsburgh Kailroad, for the following facts: The storm which visited this city on Saturday, in tho vicinity of Alliance, Stark county, became a terrific hurricane. Its track extended along the line of the Cleaveland & Pittsburgh Railroad from ten miles south of Alliance to two miles north of that place, and along it, fences and trees were scattered. Near Alliance a .barn was blown to piecesv and six cattle killed the man in the barn escaping unhurt. In Alliance a church and fifteen houses were destroyed. The Exchange was full of travelers when the roof was blown off, but none of them were hurt. In "Ely Block," four brick buildings, the ends were blown down the chimneys and rafters passing through a room where a family were sitting, but none of the party was injured. A farmer who had sought shelter beside the -building, was crushed under the walls and instantly killed. Tho grief of his wife and family, who were near, was agonizing. Auotner man was fatally injured. A large new frame building, all the property of two enterprising young men, was literally torn to pieces. Al Damascus, on the Ohio and Pennsylvania railroad, a man was killed; and not less than twenty-five trees were blown upon the track between Salem and Alliance. Upon the Cleveland nnd Zinesville road, between Millersburgh and Akron, a tree fell across a train, disconnecting the cars, and at lhe same time trees fell at either end of the train, fairly hemming Jt in. A freight Irain. standing on lhe tratk, at Alliance, was blown down the track, and off a switch, as though propelled by a powerful engine. Clevelander. " Sfntencc of Iftrs. Ilabbard. The Marion Journal contains a short account of the condemnation of Mrs Hubbard, for the murder of the French family. She was found guilty, and condemned to imprisonment for life in the penitentiary. The Journal says: At 10 o'clock yesterday morning, (Wednesday, April 9,) she was brought into court to receive the sentence. To the question whether she had anything to say why sentence should not be pronounced agaidst her, she presented a written I answer to the effect that übe was inno cent, but so surrounded Villi circumstances as to be unable to establish' the facts.

Shocking Affair in rennsylrania. Extract from a private letter. Reamswokth, Pa., March 30, 185G. Last Thursday night a man went to a farm house, and told the farmer if he did not give him fifty dollars he would buru the barn down. The farmer's son was going to ehoot him, but the farmer prevented him so doing. In a few minutes, however, the barn was in a blaze, but the farmer and his son were too frightened to go out, for fear the man would murder them, nnd therefore three valuable, horses, 200 sheep, and thirty head of fat rattle were destroyed. On investigation, the body of a man was discovered in the ruins, with a dirk knife in his bolt. It is supposed that there were three or four men, and while one went for the money the others set the barn on fire, and while in the act of setting the barn on fire one of them received a kick from a cross old horse horse, and therefore he. could not getaway, and was burnt to death. The wicked are punished soma time or other. The farmer received assistance by blo;ving on horns. Pennsylvania has a severe law for the punishment of seduction, under a promise of marriage. It imposes a heavy fine and imprisonment. The first trial under this act took place last week, at Pittsburgh, Mary S. Murray againsl Wm. A.

That county has 26 slaves, but no free blacks. Louisville Dem. Rev. Dr. Rice, of St. Louis, was robbed a few days since of table silver to . the amount of 100. A portion of it wns returned to him, through the inle-rvention of a Catholic Priest, to whom the theft had been communicated at the confessional. The Leader, the Roman Catholic paper, thinks that Dr. Rice, when he hereafter denounces the coufessioual, will have to admit that it has an advantage in the restoration of silver spoons.
