    NICARAGUA. —The advices from Nicaragua
confirm the report that the fort at Serapique
on the San Juan river, had fallen into the
bands of Col. Lockridge. The fort had sur
rendered after one day.s fighting, and the filli
busters captured large supplies of Minnie rifles,
ammunition, artillery, provisions and cooking
usensils. They then proceeded up the river,
and took the station at the mouth of the San
Carlos, after which the Rescue gave chase up
up stream to the steamer Charles Morgau.—
Castillo rapids was abaudoned by the Costa Ri
cans, who set fire to the building and two stea
mers. The fillibusters succeeded in saving one
of the latter in a damaged state. A small
party of the Costa Ricans remained in the
fort "at Castillo ou the 18th ult., but were to
be attacked on the next day. As the Costa
Ricans have burned all the boats, Loekridge's
efforts to seize the advantage gained does not
help Walker any, for no recruits can go to
him. Col. Lockridge had been stopped at
Grey town, during a visit he had made there,
bv the British Commander, on the charge of
detaining British subjects, but the matter was
satisfactorily explained, aud he rejoined bis
forces.
THE EPIDEMIC AT "WASHINGTON ; or the mys
terious sickness which attacked everybody who
put up at National hotel, just previous to the
inauguration, and the cause which has been
traced to the water which has been taken
from the cistern of the house, into which a
number of rats, who had partaken of arsenic
had plunged, it is of a more serious character
than is generally supposed. Mr. Lenox of
Ohio died last week of its effects, and we see
bv the New York papers that the wife of Mr.
Jay L. Adams, who stopped at the hotel on
his way home from Savannah, has also died
from the sickness contracted there, A post
mortem examination of Mrs. Adams reveveal
ed the fact " that the stomach had been par
tially eaten away ; the bowels manifested
svmptoms of violent inflamation ; the lungs
were congested, and the kidneys severely af
fected." These appearances indicate the pres
ence and action of arsenic in the stomach.—
Mr 0. B. Mattesou, member of Congress, is
suffering severely. Many other persons in
New York, Newark and in Philadelphia, be
sides the President himself, are much enfeebled
by the attacks of diarhoea, having their origin,
s is supposed, in the poisoned water which
they drank. The New York Post calls for an
investigation by the Coroner, that the public
may ascertain the precise extent and nature of
the culpability, if any, ou the part of the pro
prietors of the hotel.
GREAT FIRE IN HAVANA. —On Sunday morn
ing last, a fire broke out in Tracy's Block and
rapidly spread tjjl it embraced a ßroderick &
Vau Dnsen's block, Bcebe's, Hitchcock's, Cor
win's and Jackson's block. The loss is upwards
of $50,000. The Havana Journal attributes
the origin of the fire to the Watkin's folk with
whom a fierce contest exists relative to the lo
cation of the County seat of Schuyler.
SHARP WORK. —From the time Verges the
assassin of the Archbishop of Paris, issued
from the door of his prison, 100 feet distant
from the guillotine, until his mutilated body
left the ground in a carriage, but one minute
elapsed.
