The Vice President, and now highest au thority In the Kepubllc.-Geueral Canseco, la ex pected In this city to-morrow, wltjt 3,500 men, coming from Arcqulpa. AH prisoners of war from the North' and tire South have had their liberty restored, and the positive triumph of the revolution has been pro-7 claimed. Colonel Balta arrived the day be fore yesterday, and was received at CallSb as well as here with loud'acclamations,'which gave. ample proof of his popularity, The : Civil war has not terminated without sanguinary conflicts in Arica, Iqniquct and Pnno-, which took place after Prado had been routed, but before his men knew anything about it. In Puno, Colonel Bustamente, an Indian, well known under, the name of the “Traveler,” for having been in Europe, the East, and In America, who wasln hopes to become the chief of tho men ot his race, had succeeded In tallying a consider* : ‘ ble number of them;, he attacked, with them tho settlements of the whites lh the insurrection ary districts. Now the Indians despise the gov ernment of Colonel Prado, sinceTiKe death of General Castjlio, who was their Idol, And who died during the lost year's campaign against the last government. Tney also paus Prado becauso he has treated them with much severity. In order therefore to induce tbo'lndians td fight; BOsta mente gavo them to underatand that the white men were defending Prado, and that they had to ‘ attack them in order to avenge the death of - Cas tllio. The conaequencQ was that the Indians en tered the city of Puno, after a short eucountor with the small garrison of the place,.and. deliv ered themselves to-all kinds .of excesses and :l£D. Some time ago, General Pope, then comman der of tbi6 Military District, issued general orders to the effect that whenever It was desired that meetings for political purposes should be held within the limits pi the city of Savannah, that a notification of that design should be made to the Commander of tho Post, as also to the eivil au thorities, the said order compelling the attend ance of,, the city and county sheriff, and each police force as might be requisite to secure order. In the face of this plain order, published offi daily, and an ordinance of the City Council, agreeably thereto, some evil-designing persons organized a mass meeting of negroes to be held in Chippewa Bquare,yesterday afternoon,without notifying either the civil or military powers. Thev erected a stand, provided the speakers for the oc casion, and congregated a large crowd of excited negroes npon the spot. This state of facts coming officially to the notice of the authorities, an order was issued by his Honor the Mayor, for the dis persion of the crowd, which was promptly ex ecuted by the notice force, ana the square cleaned or the tumultuous assembly. The ne groes then atsembled at an African wretch,called “Andrew Chapel," on New street, and re-orga nized,their meeting. Notice of this fact being .also brought to the attention of the authorities, another order was leaned, directing the Chief , of Police to investigate the fact, and If any unlawful assembly had gathered to adjourn the same. Accordingly, General Anderson, accompanied by five ..officers, vClted the place .and found a very f excited crowd of negroes assembled at the mrarch. He ordcred thc adjournment of the meeting and the dispersion of the crowd, .which commenced a furiuus attack upon the little squad; which was coptinned nntU reinforcements arrived front the Barraoks; then the fight became general, pistols,rocks and clubs were freely used, until finally the rioters wetb dispersed, and some twenty-six arrested and carried to.the Barracks. Lieutenant Beil,’-of the police force, received a se vere flesh wouud lu the leg from a pistol shot fired by one of the rioters, as also a wound in the bead with a rock; ,he. however, remained at his post until overcome and faint from loss of blood . Lieutenant Hqward was knocked senseless by a blow in the bead with a rock, and which Uked to have proved fatal. Be was carried Into quar ters and his wound dressed. Sergeant Khrinrhad a eevere encounter with,oae of the ringleaders, and was slightly ryounded.- We haveheardt, of but one negro being shot, but as thfito Arefe at least forty shots exchanged between the opposing forces; we should not be surprised to learn or more casualties, ... - ,•*./» i •H. H, Eden, William Wallace and Aaron Gray son, appeared to have acted the moßt’Conspicu ous part ln Jhe disgraceful affair. There are others who were prominent In the riotous pro-' ceeditg, but they have succeeded Inescaplng thus far. The wildest ruiuoi6 were prevslent lawjyea- atrocities against the wbltb population, when the news of Prado’s defeat arrived. It was fortunate that this news did arrive,, for Bostamento in tended to withdraw with hia mett. because he was afraid of being attacked by the victorious patty. But he could not do it without the Indians dis covering that Bustamente had tried to decleve them by assuring them that they were fighting against Prado, and that he was advancing their cause. The In dians made their escape with him; but when they afterwards considered themselves in safety, in the wood of Urcuhbani, thoy rose In rebellion against. theft chief, Bustamente, and put him-to death With their lances, and took his aids-along as prisoners. This la- the way BustamAhte’s en deavor to excite a war of races, was terminated, which, if it had been successful, would have been the ruin and death of many more unfortunate persons inhabiting tips country. , CRIME. An Ohio Borsla-Wbaleilals Poison ing—A UreMlnl story* The CteveGad Herald of Saturday has the fol lowing*. “Close upon the heels of the terrible Parquet - poisoning case in this city, in which a coroner's jury has just found that a brother came tohls death by poison at the hands of his sister, comes a new honor from Summit county, not less shocking in its details, if suspicion be well founded? than the case here. The tacts are briefly these: "On a little farm in what is known as Jobnny- Cake Lock, in Boston township, Summit county, on the canal, lived an old farmer: and his wife, both of them sixty years of age—perhaps more. The old couple have not lived happily for years, and the w oman seems to have been suspected of having a passion for poison. At .all events, a daughter pas on two occasions, fearful of the re sult of some of her mother's frequent fits of pas sion. hidden away poison that the old lady had in the house. In the . latter part of August last, the old man for some reason proposed to sell his farm and other property at public sale, and ap pointed the time, September 10, on a Tuesday, tie wanted an assistant in the sale, and sent for a young man named James Powles to act in that capacity. • The young man arrived at the fajm on Sunday afternoon previous to the Tuesday ap pointed for the sale. The old farmer was not feeling well, and was found lying out of doors on the grass vomiting. lie had not been well for some days. “A week or so before, be and a young man living with him ate breakfast as usual one moan ing, iheoUl lady not having much appetite, and declining to join them l in the meat Imm edi cts-Jyaf ter breakfast, the old man and young one were taken with vomiting. The old man was consequently not well for, some days, and sent for a hoy to help him do bis chores. The first time the boy ate breakfast there he was also attacked with vomiting, and the old man was also visited by a return of his former trouble. On, the Sunday of the arrival of young Powles, the old lady had got up a dinner of chicken; the old man, however, was too ill to eat, and Powles setdown lo dinntr, eating bpartUy of the chicken and of tbe'breadon the table; Be Was also' Attacked with vomltug and violent pains, and next day be died and was-trailed. Dr. Pixley, one of the best physicians in' this part of the State, knew of the circumstances, bat ids suspicions were not especially arointed. ' ’ “finally.' the old man, being puzzled to ac count for ibis strange Sickness in his house, at tacking every one except his, wife, communi cated tbciactS to somc nelghhor, and was ad vised to throw away all the flour, milk and other eatables in tho house, and begin with a new sup ply. He threw a quantity of bread, amoDg other things, into his bog-pen, and next morning was astonished to find that his hog was dead, and also half a dozen hens that had been eatiDg the tiread thrown away. “Nt< investigation wns mado, however, and as matters went on,' the strange affair became, of course, the staple of talk among the country gossips. About ten days ago, for .some reason with which we are unacquainted, the body of young Powles was exhumed and examined. The stomach was takes out, and with some of the bread that bad killed the pig and bens, brought to this city by the coroner.©! the county and sub mitted to Professor Ca&sels for chemical analysis. Professor Casscls has not yet concluded bis ex amination. The case is a very singular one, and almost as remarkable in point of the length of lime elapsing between the death and the exami nation as the Parquet case here. Of course the suspicion now is that the old lady administered the poison in the bread on her table. A coroner’s mqnest has been held, bnt the result—if a result has been reached yet—is -unknown. Probably the jury will await Professor Cassers testimony after his examination before making a verdict." Terrible Blot In Savannah-Fight be. tween Negroes and Whites.

American licbungcßanti Mobbed. i 1 (FYom todaxieN.V. Tribime.! - The report-of a heavy defalcation in the Amt - rican Exchange Bank created much excitement in Vynll street yesterday morning, and many anx ious depositors and stockholders made haste to learn the facts of what was then believed to be a serious deficit In the cash account. It was soon ascertained, however,that although 3ome trifling irregularities hAd- been < committed, they - Were greatly exaggerated by rumor, andlhc ®600,000 was reduced to an amount so email as to be of trifling consequence to .the bank. ; We have • made carCfnl., Inquiries concerning. the mat ter, and ore pleased to learn that the story has so little foundation. The difficulties originated with the and 1 might have resulted in a serious complication of the accounts had they not been discovered and checked, by ffie : officers. Tho distinct under standing between the directors and employes of a bank fa that the latter shall not, At any time, or under any circumstances; speculate m stocks. Kno*ing this, the Assistan t cashier, who Appears id have been more anxious for wealth than wise in the choice of means ■by which to attain it, yielded to the temptation for stock gambling and engaged in some pjdtty extensive operations in Wall street, tbroggb the agency of a well-known 'broker.'. His Ventures appear to have been un successful,, and jnst as he had begun’ to avail b)mselfbl the facilities afforded by his position, the fact came to the notice of the directors, and the officer was promptly removed. The actual loss to the bank will not exceed, If it equals, $60,- . 000, which, to such a reliable and wealthy institu tion, is a matter of bnt little- consequence. That this amount would have soqn been greatly in creased is almost certain; and the vigilance of the officers of the bank in detecting these irregulari ties in time to prevent their becoming more serious, is worthy of imitation by all those who have the management of financial institutions. The temptations to -speculate naturally affects those first who deal largely in money ; and when once it Is yieldcd to there is no esti mating the evil consequences that follow. Those who are connected With monetary institutions should appreciate the fact that they have no right to speculate even with their own money, for when the excitement of stock gambling gets the better of their calm judgment, .there is no stop ping Bhort of absolute ruin or a miraculous suc cess which cannot ire depended on. Gentlemen tilling these laborious and salaried positions are not, as a rule, men of large means, and we have yet to know of onewho has ever held his own in the end' unless he wob able to bear np under se rious losses at the commencement This is a truth that bank officers would do well to remem ber when taking the risks of buying long or short in the street.

"Do this, and VICTORY! VICTORY!! shall tie eur watchword and reyvard.” The i.alc JolinJllenrj-, Son of Patrick 'Henry. The death of this gentleman at his patrimonial seat in Charlotte county, Virginia, has already been announced, and speaking of him the Nor folk Journal, of a late date, says: ’ At the death of Patrick Henry, his eon John, whose death has just- occurred, w4s only two years old, and he retained no recollection of bis father; but to his dying hour he cheris6fed an ar dent affection for his; memory, preserving all the relies of the patriot with rellgionß care, and de fended it against all the misrepresentations which the heated partisans of an era subsequent to the revolution were disposed to lay at his door. Among these relics we remember a small pen knife which the uncle of the orator gave him when he was a boy, and which he wore In his waistcoat pocket tohls dying day. . A visit to Bed Hill when John Henry was in the tidiness of his health, and before the raging of that terrible storm which has prostrated the fortunes of, the South, wass,day ever to be re membered by the recipients bf the courtesies of that hospitable mansion. Its position on the brow of a hilt was all that eonld be wished.- As vou looked southward, yon heard on the right a clashing little mountain stream breaking its Irreg ular way to tha Stanton; and before yon, stretch ing far and wide, and bounded by the Stanton; wne several hundred acres of rich, low grounds teemlDg ; with crops of corn, wheat, and to bacco; and yet beyood were the bine hills of Hali fax, rising from the banks of the stream, but not obstructing a view of the South as for as the eye could reach., Of the refined and genial hospitali ties, of that homestead, none who ever shared them will ever be unmindful. And then as the evening shadows were lolling, that visit with the family to the grave of our great patriot) who lay beside his. wife and'a famUyqf se.veral genera tions, closed most fittingly one of the most inter esting days in the life ofthevlßltor. It was not the disposition of Mr. John Henry life. In the employments of bis beautlfal plantation, In the rearing of a large andlntelllgent family, and in the gentle and generous pursuits of literature, he spent a peaceful and honorable life. . —A London', papdrshys this ta a paper ago.

Sudden Death of a Japanese-myste rious Occurrence. [From tie N. Y. Post, of Feb. 10.] Ha-yah-ta-hee, the leader of the Japanese troupe recently arrived In this city, died at No. 20 Bieecker street on Saturday evening, of heart disease. His death is said to nave been snperin dneed by a dispute between himself and Mr. De Rosa. his manager and interpreter. This report is contradicted by Dr. Simmonds, the attending physician, who says it is not probable thatfla yah-.ta-kee would have lived till morning. His relations with Mr. De Rosa were of the most friendly character. A croof of this was given by the dying request of Ha-yah-la-keo,who consigned his family to Mr. De Rosa’er can and protection while they remain in this county. The body was taken to Greenwood Cemetery abont ■ halt-past ten o’clock this morning for temporary interment in the Btranger’s Receiving Tomb, No funeral ceremonies, except the prayers and mo notonous chanting of the relatives took place, owing to the fact that no minister, of their faith is in this country. The company will not perform at present, their religion requiring them to spend a month m pray ers and funeral ceremonies oat of respect to the mtinoiy of the dead. On the return of the tronpe to their own conntty the body will be taken with them. All of the Japanese, adults and children, attended the body to the grave, together with a small number of Americans. . Jew Inlet on ttae New Jersey Coasts The Tom River (N. J.) Courier makes an an nouncement which many persons interested in the coasting trade will be glad to hear. It is almost certain that a new inlet to Barnegat Bay from the ocean will soon be opened. The Courier says: “Just above the honse of Mr. Jacob Herbert there is a very narrow neck. of beach wlth bold and deep water on either side up to the beach. Here the water of the Metedeconk also concen trates all of its force, and would largely aid in keeping it open so as to prove it successful. The entrance from the upper bay to the lower one is very narrow, and a bulkhead could be easily con strnctedy giviii'g passage .to vessels, and. which would also aid largely 'll! retaining a volume.of water; tbht.wonld eerveto keep the inlet open, we think, for all time.” ; - ■ If this new route is successfully opened, the distance between New York and the towns on Bamegat Bay will be materially lessened, and vessels will no longer be compelled to pick their way through the shoals of Bamegat Inlet. Loaptear, An exchange thus familiarly address&sJtself to single men in a strain that will be equally interesting to single ladies: Do you know that this is leap year ? It is your year ot ju bilee, wherein you may rest from the labor of courting and sit back with your hands crossed on your lap, and wait for propositions from the fair sex. From time immemorial it has been the custom for ladies to ask ail leading questions one year in four. If any suffering angel has been pining for you in secret, you will be apt to find it out before you are much older. Concealment, which, like a worm in the bud, bps been feeding on her dama&k cheek, will have to hunt np a new boardingrbouse. I suppose it is one of the wise provisions of nature, this making us meu objects of interest every fourth year, and if the designs of nature are properly carried out, we may look for a great many conjugal conjunctions in 18G8. It is well known fo those who know anything about it, that a 1 woman can do three times as much courting in one year as a mm can in three, and if the ladies avail themselves of their rights and perform their proper func tions, single beds and furnished lodgings will become a drpg in the market before the year is out. Avoid trifling with the feelings of the gentle beings who may desire to become overseers of your happiness. Do not encourage hopes that you know can never be realized. Do not, suffer a young lady to exbend half her income in concert tickets, French candy and buggy rides, knowing at the time you receive those attentions that she is not a congenial spirit. When you once make up your mind that she is not exactly the style of angel you would be willing todomarketingfor,Break- the disas trous Intelligence to her as gently and firmly as possible. Assure her that you feel ex tremely flattered by her preference, and that you shall always esteem her as a friend. If managed with skill there is no danger of the rejection being accompanied with a sacrifice of human life. AtfrH « Bamk.— The New Orleans Crescent telle the following story:—“When General Jeff. Thompson was in Boston last summer soliciting the co-operation of the solid seen of the Hub in btecommerclalentorpdstvhe was introduced by his nataettodmilitary title to.a venerable mer chant on Central wharf.‘Happy to see yon, sir,’ saidthe old ■ merchant; ‘I am proud to meet a gentleman who took so prominent a part in pat ting down the rebellion 1 Take a seat, sir I’ The aeniletnan introducing the general corrected the slight misapprehension Ot ■ the old merchant. ‘All -the Bame.' was the response: ‘I am happy to see you, anyway; take a seat, take a seat, sir. ’ At a fashionable wedding In Brattleboro, Vt., recently, a cynical old gentleman presented, to the bride a pair of flat-icons, a washboard, mot*, broom and gridiron. These cheap but useful articles were intended as a hint that the woman's duties are those of Martha—not necessarily that she IB to be troubled about many things, but to see that the house is mado neat, wholesome and cheerful.— Ese.
