A lew days ago a woman, apparently In great distress, called at the residence of a citizen and represented that her husband bad just died, aid that she bad no money to enable her to bury him decently, and was without the meaus to provide tood for herself and children. The story made an Impression upon the lady of tho house, and she said she would soo what could be done and would then call upon the widow. ' After collecting money and provisions for the family the visit was paid, and the husband was found as if really dead. Upon going out the visitor accidentally left her portemonnaie upon tbe table, and when she reached the street she missed it and returned quickly. She was startled not a little on entering the room to find that the husband bad come to life and was sitting up in bed.

The Evening Mail has advices Irom Cuba via Nassau, that General Lceca has failed three times to make his way to Fuerto Pnnclpc, aud the Insurgents havo each time repulsed blm with heavy lose, belore his arrival at Los Paredones (Big Walls), the moat difficult pass of tbe Cubitas. Eiehty of his wounded had just arrived per steamer at N lie vitas from La Uuaraja, General Lesca's bate, and anotber steamer left tor Havana the next day with a greater number. General Lesca remains with nis column be tween La Uuaraja and Lost Paredoues, in a dangerous position, while Puerto Principe is besieged by the insurgents, if not entirely in their bands. ei,or Homero, In a private letter to a friend In Washington, dated City of Mexico, February 27, ravs: "The political condition of affairs has improved of late. Negrete s revolt ended very catl.y. As soon as tho Government troops w(ie able to reach Lira, his men disbaaded, hlmcst without fighting, on the 21st instant. All tbe material of war be bad with him was captured. Luis Malo, the officer commanding the squadron which rebelled at Puebla, was killed in the engagement. Kstencs, second In command, and several others were captured, and the affair is altogether ended. Tbe parties who started anotber rebellion at Opam were also routed and dispersed; so was Servando t'auales, in the Slate of Tamaulipas, by General Etcobedo's forces. "All theee events will necessarily contribute to consolidate public peace in Mexico. The mal contents see now that they caunot succeed, any more in their machinations agalnet the peace of the country, and it is not likely they will rise again. The people are really tired of war, and quite anxious to consolidate pcaca. The op position to the Government, lormed of a very few persons who sympathized with the rebel lion, have been clamoring for a change of the Cabinet. As their motives for this are not patriotic and noble, and they cannot, in any manner, reprebent the country, their desires have cot been complied with. Commercial prostration unfortunately prevails, as the natural consequence ot tho long war we have suffered."
