Important from steamer Tennessee, at New Orleans, brings advices from the City : of Mexico to the 19th, and ’from Vera Cruz to the 22d. So far as we can judge from the brief telegraphic disp&toh, the wheel of fortune has taken another turn.— Miramon is back in the capital, which he reached on : the 11th. Wbat become of the besieging forces the,dispatch doos not say. It speaks of him, however, as the victorious General, whence we conclude that he has probably driven them off It also accuses him' of'murdering peaceable foreigners indis criminately, which is not very probable. He has protested against our recognition of the Juarez Government, and has revoked the exequatur of Mr. Black and has sent him out of the country. Meanwhile, Vera Cruz, though it escaped Miramon, is threatened with attack from another and more serious quarter. The British Minister has demanded a million and i a half of dollars from the Custom-House in satisfaction of English claimß, and threatens a bombardment if it is not paid. Just now both the two rival Presidents would seem to have their hands full. The Expenses of the Paraguay Expedi tion.—The allegation of the Republican jour nals that the President uas spent millions upon this expedition is wholly unfounded. We repeat wbat we stated in our article of Thursday last on this subject, that this expedition will not cost the government a dollar beyond the ordinary expenditures of the Navy Department in time of peace, except tho sum of two hundred and eighty nine thousand dollars for the purchase of seven small Hteamers. An appropriation was made for this purpose by the last Congress, and all will almit that these vessels of light draught of water greatly needed by the Navy. The New York Herald , therefore, in its powerful article of Tuesday last, demon strating the advantages of the Paraguay expedition to our commerce <n the waters of the La Plata, as well as to the character of our country, (which we published yesterday,) might have explicitly denied that the Presi dent had sp‘*nt millions, or even thousands, on this expedition.— Washington Constitution.

Columbia, may 3 Orn In] CONRAD ANNE, Agent. Ayer’s Sarsaparilla A compound remedy,Ain which we have la bored to produce the*most effectual alterative that can be made. It is a concentrated extract of Para Sarsaparilla, so combined with other substances of still greater alterative power as to afford an effective antidote for the diseases Sarsaparilla i 9 reputed to cure. It is believed that such a remedy is wanted by those who suffer from Strumous complaints, and that one which will accomplish their cure must prove of immense service to this large class of our afflicted fellow-citizens. How completely this compound will do it has been proven by exper iment on many of the worst cases to be found of the following complaints: Scrofula and Scrofulous Complaints, Eruptions and Eruptive Diseases, Ulcers, Pimples, Blotches, Tumors, Salt Rheum, Scald Head, Sypjiilib and Syphilitic Af fections, Mercurial Disease, Dropsy, Neu ralgia or Tic Douloureux, Debility, Dys pepsia and Indigestion, Erysipelas, Rose or St. Anthony’s Fire, and indeed the whole class of complaints arising from Impurity of the Blood. [april 5 fim 3s3f 12 v This compound will be found a great pro moter of health, when taken in the spring, to expel the foul humors which fester in the blood at that season of the year. By the time ly expulsion of them many rankling disorders are nipped in the bud. Multitudes can, by the aid of thisjemedy, spare themselves from the endurance of foul eruptions and ulcerous sores, through which the system will strive to rid itself of corruptions, if not assisted to do this through the natural channels of the body by an alterative medicine. Cleanse out the vitiated blood whenever you find its impurities bursting through the skin in pimples, eruptions, or sores; cleanse it when you find it is ob structed and sluggish in the veins ; cleanse it whenever it is foul, and your feelings will tell you when. Even where no particular disorder is felt, people enjoy better health, and live longer, for cleansing' the blood. Keep the blood healthy, and all is well; but with this pabulum of life disordered, there can be no lasting health. Sooner or later something must go wTong, and the great machinery of life is disordered or overthrown. Sarsaparilla has, and deserves much, the reputation, of accomplishing these ends. But the world has been egregiously deceived by preparations of it, partly because the drug alone has not all the virtue that is claimed for it, but more because many preparations, pretending to be concentrated extracts of it, contain but little of the virtue of Sarsaparilla, or any thing else. During late years the public have been mis led by large bottles, pretending to give a quart of Extract of Sarsaparilla for one dollar. Most of these have been frauds upon the sick, for they not only contain little, if any, Sarsapa rilla, but often no curative properties whatev er. Hence, bitter and painful disappointment has followed the use of the various extracts of Sarsaparilla which flood the market, until the name itself is justly “despised, and has become synonymous with imposition and cheat. Still we call this compound Sarsaparilla, and intend to supply such a remedy as shall rescue the name from the load of obloquy which rests upon it. And we think we have ground for believing it has virtues which are irresistible by tbe ordinary run of the diseases it is intend ed to euro. In order to secure their complete eradication from the sj-stem, the remedy should be judiciously taken according to directions on the bottle. 11. LEI! ER. DR. J. C. AYER & CO. LOWELL, MASS.

[Entered according to Act of Congress, A. D. 1859, by Bennett & Co., in the Clerk’s Office of the District Court of the United States for the Eastern District of Pennsyl vania.] We’ll sing of the Farmers, who thrive by their toil The heroes who conquer and govern the soil— Believing that all will the subject regard A-; one of the best for tbe song of a Bard. Their homes are their castles—tbeir hearth-stones a throne— They rule with no scoplre the kingdoms they own; The stalks and tho vines, with the fruit-bearing trees, Aro subjects thut bend not to tyrants tho knees ; But bend with tbe wealth of the orchard and field, E’er loyal, and faithful a harvest to yield : No planning or plotting among them is known— No traitor the sov’roign would strike from his throne. He stands ’midst his acres of grass, wheat and maize, Like Crusoe, 11 tbe monarch of all he surveys. ’" His banks are tbe earth-banks that stand oo his farm— The banks that are Rafe when tho panics alarm— Tbe stock is the cattle—not fancy in breed : The shares are the plongh-sAares that scores for the Feed— Not quoted on ’Change in the broker’s array; But shares on which Nature will dividends pay. Th-ir banks are not those that the widows condemn— No officers pilfer deposits from them— If small the potatoes that in them aro found, Yet none are hr small as we find out of ground. The Farmer with appetite ever can eat The bread on his table “as good as the wheat;” ADd, loving most dearly his wife, he may utter, My bread and ray wife! I’U not have any but her! With juice of tbe apple, the wife then may fill ThegUss in which lingers no tremors or ill; And she may respond that, whatever betide her, Most happy she’ll be with her husband beside her! There’s maoy a hearth where the embers are glowing: There's many a heart with its joys overflowing— The hearths and the hearts, from the world’s rude alarms Are safe in tho homes that are reared on our farms. Tbe Farmers, in Spring-time, in Sommer and Fall, Can order their suits from the great Ttower Hall; - And after the harvest, when.fruit,grass and grains Are gather’d in barns from the hill and the plain, With dimes in their pockets, of labor the fruits, Can visit the city and look to their suite— Not suits with the lawyers, demanding their fees, But Tower Hall suits which the Farmers must please; ' Because they have tried them, and very well know That men at the “Tower” the best only sew; And Farmers will buy—as their pocket.tbey heed— . The clothes that are longest in going to seed. BENNETT & Co.’s Tower Hall ClOthisg Basaab.6lB Market street,between Fifth and Sixth streets,south side,' Philadelphia.

Lightning rods* To all who intend protecting their property from LIGHTNING, a few facts may not be unwelcome THE ELECTRO MAGNET LIGHTNING ROD has been before the public for twenty years; has been the means of saving a vast deal of property and many lives, and has never in a single instance failed to meet the high est expectations of its value. Hundreds of our own citi zens can testify from their own knowledge of its ability to protect property in safety; who have been eye witnesses where buildings public and private, churches and school houses, have been saved from destruction—the.rod receiv ing and carrying harmless to the ground, strokes which but for them would have caused the total ruin of the building and all within it. The superiority of these rods over any others in use has been testified to by men who have no superiors in general science or in .this department. Recommendations to the number of six thousand can beseenat the factory. The United Stales Patent Office is protected by my Rods, having been selected from all others In use as the best and most reliable. Considering the character and position of the men who have charge of that institution, no higher testimony could be desired. Persons residing at a distance should be on their gnard against a class of swindlers who by false representations of every description, seek to mislead the purchaser. Where my agents are not personally known as such, the only safe plan is to apply, by letter or otherwise, at the Factory. 35-Weather Vanes, Cardinal Points, Spire Rods, and all manner of SCROLL and FANCY IRON WORK, to suit all characters of Architecture, got up In the neatest and most durable manner at the lowest cost prices. „ THOMAS ARMITAGE, Magnetic Lightning Rod and Weather Vane Factory, No 1208 VINE Street, above Twelfth, PHILADELPHIA mar 20 3m r N EW SPRING GOODS. .

No character In history offer, a hotter subject fcr the romancer, than «... of Maaiorr, or, as he wia familiarly called, “the swamp FOX,” from the immense ingenuity of his stratagems end devices for misleading and deceiving the enemy, his thorough knowledge of the woods, forests, fields, and swamps of his native region, where he and his gallant band were perfectly at home, while their enemies became lost and bewildered in the labyrinthine maxes of undergrowth and morass. , The story above announced is a true reflex of those scenes and times, and its talented author has most vividly portrayed, therein, the many exdting incidents and accidents of a tenacious and indefatigable struggle tor Liberty, pursued under the most adverse circumstances.— Every chapter is replete with exciting and romantic interest, historically accurate, but with a sparkling web of poetry woven through it, which makes It at onoe a brilliant story and a veracious record. The strongly written descriptions of events—the ambuscade the sudden sortie—the night-attack—the wild charge and repulse—are all wonderful as examples of word-painting, and equally true to the actual facts. In addition to these scenes of heroism and lofty daring, the SWAMP FOX is not without the gentle charm of a love-story, for the working and the effects of the tender passion are depicted in its pages, as truly and artistically as the sterner emotions, rendering the tale a perfect picture of life and character in the Days of the Revolution, which cannot fail to appeal to the admiration, and gratify the taste of every reader who has a spark of true patriotism in his soul. The peculiar power and Interest with which the gifted author, GEORGE ALBANY, Esq., describes the thrilling period, is a guarantee of the excellence of this truly magnificent Historical Romance. The vivid delineation of character, the depth of thought, the fascination of style, the picturesque beauty of description, and, in a word, the power of language he commands, all combine to render him one of the most brilliant writers of the age, while bis great appreciation of and sympathy with the pioneers in the cause of universal liberty give him a grasp of Revolu* tionary subjects possessed by very few others. This has enabled him, in the SWAMP FOX, to exhibit the life and adventures of MARION AND HIS MEN as they really were, and to do fit homage to that deliberate valor, that unyielding patriotism, which, in a few noble spirits, defying danger, and above the scenes of privation, could keep alive the sacred fires of liberty in the thick swamps and dense and gloomy forests—asking nothing, yielding nothing, and onlj* leaving the field the bettor to re-enter It for the combat 1 We take to ourselves some credit, for having secured for our columns the c heft cPieuvrcs of this master’s pen, but we intend to give the NEW YORK MERCURY a still higher prestige than ever. We believe it is already the BEBT AND LARGEBT STORY PAPER in the world, and we contemplate making it better and better, with every successive number, in spite of all expense and opposition. BAYARD TAYLOR TEE NEW YORK MERCURY! At a very heavy expense we have succeeded in securing CELEBRATED POET, AUTHOR AND TOURIST, whose charming lettors from foreign lands have long kept the world delighted and interested, BAYARD TAYLOR, ESQ., who will hereafter make the Mercury the only recipient of his inestimable SKETCHES OF TRAVEL , ONE OF WHICH WILL APPEAR EVERY WEEK. We have the happiness to announce, therefore, that in the NEW YORK MERCURY FOR APRIL 30TH, 1859, BTRAY CHAPTERS LIFE AND TRAVEL The initiatory article being entitled “THE FIRST JOURNEY I EVER MADE,” which is considered by the author—as it unquestionably will be by the public—to be his most interesting adventure iince the original outset of the GREAT AMERICAN TRAVELER, and cannot fall to be of interest to ail. These delightful articles will be BEAUTIFULLY ILLUSTRATED with original designs, In the highest style of the art, por* traying the scenes and characters described in the most graphic manner. This new feature Is a most valuable and instructive one, suited to both yonng and old, and will render THE NEW YORK MERCURY worthy of a leading place, as the most refined and elegant FAMILY PAPERS Since the first announcement of our engagement of MB. TAYLOR, we have received a flood of Inquiries from all parts of the UnioD, relative to the enterprise, showing that public expectation is on tip-toe to learn the particulars regarding the character of bis contributions. As It is impossible for ns to answer these in detail, we can only refer onr friends and correspondents to the NEW YORK MERCURY FOR APRIL 30, where the first of these sparkling and popular sketches will be found. As no other American has ever traveled so extensively as BAYARD TAYLOR, and no other traveler can see things with the eyes of America, we need not farther eulogize the value'of these emanations of his mind and observation, to the reading public. It is sufficient to say that they, will greatly enhance the high character that the MERCURY has ever maintained, and that heretofore rested upon many causes, some of the most important of which may be summed np as follows: THE MERCURY employs more literary talent than any other paper. * THE MERCURY pays more, and higher prices for that talent, than any other paper. * THE MERCURY is constantly announcing new, start* ling, and brilliant additions to its already unrivaled fund of attractions. THE MERCURY is illustrated by F. 0. C. Darley, Esq., the greatest artist of this century, and his beautiful pictures are thus brought within the reach of the entire public. THE MERCURYIs the oldest and most firmly established literary journal in America. THE MERCURY, daring the Twenty-one years of its prosperous existence, has published a larger number of popular original tales, romances, and sketches, than all its imitators combined.
