KOESUTH NOT TO RKLEASKO,—The
Tribune translates the following Irons the
Correspondence of the Freeburg Zeitung,
•dated Para, April 2:
The Ministry has at length decided on
the fate of the refugees. The Porte has
accordingly declared that it assumes the
obligation of retaining in custody Kossuth,
his wile, Count Hattliyani, Nocolaus and
Moritz Perczel, Asbath, Gyurman, Luley
and Wisoeky, and makes their fate depen
dent on further transactions with Austria.
In order to effect the release of the others,
an official is to be dispatched next week
to Kutahia, and superintend their surren
der to the Turkish Commissioner. They
will then be brought to Gemlik in a Turk
ish vessel, which will deliver them sii the
Dardanelles to an American or English
ship of war. At the same time, those ref
ugees whose banishment has been deman
ded by Austria, especially Dubucai and
Vay will be banished [rein this place.--
Austria has thus obtained nearly all she
asked. The Russian Ambassador must
be less satisfied with the result of his mis
sion, since no decision could be obtained
for the banishment of Gaikowski, on
which he insisted. It is a curious fact
that Gen. Aupick also, the zealous patron
and friend of the refugees, should have to
demand the banishment of the French
Chanel, who came here from Geneva to
receive the refugees into the great demo
cratic league of nations.
Mrs. Mary Banton is called the oldest
woman in the world. She was born on

ARREST OF RaVOLUTIONEITS IN C
A letter dated at St. Jago do Cuba, Nay
to the Savanah News, in speaking of the
recent arrests, says
..Papers were taken which diseoVered
a plot to commence insurrection while on

taken measures to capture the 'head-quar

of Garabaldi with 3000 men. At the
same time Lopez would have effeqted hit/

judge, alter having concluded the proceed

petual punishment three of the principal
officers ; and to ten years' hard labor a ser
geant of the garrison and two privates.—
The traitor who betrayed them was M.

KILLED BY AN ELEPHANT:A lad was
killed by a blow front the trunk of one of
the elephants attached to Raymond & Co.'s
menagerie, in Derby, Ct., during the ex
hibition there on Wednesday. A crowd
of boys were feeding the animal with nuts,
apples, &c., when the deceased wantonly
punctured the trumk with some Sharp in
strument, which enraged the elephant.—
The keeper cautioned the lad to keep a
way after this occurred or he might be M.
jured ; but no heed was given to the warn
and soon after he approached within
reach of the elephant's trunk, from which
he received a blow tm the head which
prostrated him, and loon after caused his
death.

nights by this mixture. Put it uponplates

FULL CONFESSION of the COS-.
DEN MASSACRE.
TIM PARTIES all hi CUSTODY.
[Front the Barnum Bun of Monday.
We received last evening the following
hasty letter from our correspondent at
Chestertown, written yesterday morning,
a half hour after the confession to which
it alludes was made. It will be semi that
a full development of this bloody imam.
tion has been made by one of the parties
to the deed, and that all of . the &cooled
participauta are in jail :
Cstaaysirrovvit, May 2%1851: '
Gentlemen—We have now a codes.

the Citation massacre, which I. &Right, to
be worthy of credit. Abouilhe Unlit of
the murder, a man by the mime of Hand,
living near Blackbird, suddenly, and with.

after his wife also loth. The movements '
of these people were of course regarded as
suspicions, antrefforis have' fiir some tithe
past been made to obtain a khowhvtlge 'of

Mrs. Hand was brought to Chestertown,
and made statements to the following ef
fect :—'lltai on the Morning 'Nellie mur•
der at a very early hour, e a man by, the
name of Stephen Alum, 'who' boarded in
the houtM ijth herself gift hue:4nd, came
running inttt the house with Musket in

were the' o . attlea.—thitt he had bein so lei.

which he, supposed was only for plunder,
ant nor for morder 7 —that he and Taylor
PNCee,did, on the evening of the murder.'
to, thi'UWAIIIRWU null, (about half a mile
front cesden a t ; and were there joined byy
Shelton 'anti MurphY ; that he had a double
barreled gun; Taylor 'a musket; , 'Shelton
a double taetelee gun aqd datable barreled
piatol, and '
,Murphy a double barreled gun.
Ile then proceeded to state that upon ar
tiving at the ouse, Taylor
fired threugh
the windoW and shot' down Cotden, and
then snatching away Shaw's gun, 'shot 111
Mrs. Cosden, as she ran out. lie also
states that Shelton murdered Mitt Coisden
and Miss Webster, and Taylor shot the'
Meek woman, but that Murphy took not
part in the murder. He asserts that he
himself was drunk and took no, part in the
murder, and that he was afterwards so
overcometby jiquor that he fell in the
fesiee.corner anti lay there for several!
hours.
Shaw was' arrayed 0.1 Saturday, and
this morning has made a full confession,
corroborating'all - the statements made by
I Mrs. Hand, saving !•that he knows that
Mrs. Hand's testimony will convict him,
`and that he may as well make a clean
breast of it:" He has been confronted
charge& and adheres, in
their presence, to all the particulars, as de
tailed, by Mrs. Hand.
Murphy, he says, he ,had never seen
before, but belieiees the man he sees in jail
us Murphy,_w have been at the murder.—
There is little or no doubt entertamed of
the truth of this ennfeson.
The cause of.tho sudden flight of Mrs.
Hand, -was fear that, as she poisessed
Shaw's secret, he might do her some bod
ily harm, tW o r event her divulging it.
Since the above letter came to hand we
have conversed with a gentleman direct
from Chestertown, %vim was present at
the jail yesterday nforning when Shaw
was confronted with the prisoners, and
made his confession. He says lie never
saw a more hardened set of men collected
together. The excitement in Chester
town was intense, and great joy was mani
fested by the people at a certainty of all
the murderers being in t custody. Web
ster, the uncle of Mrs. Cosden, is, now ac
knowledged Mbe free of all participation
in the bloody deed, and will be discharged
in a few days. The prisoners , are heavi
ly chained together, and presents most re
volting speotaele. The trial will take
place next week.

IMPORTANT LROIALATIVR ACTION IN

Massachitsetts Assembly, on Friday last,
the chief subject of interest was the ac

slavery. After some debate the yeas Mid

the resolves could not find quite friends e

The fisheries on the Potomac river have,
we believe, all been.closed. We presume
the season's business has been a fair ave
rage one--though not assume anticipated
it would be; from the take of the first week
or so. The demand for fish from the coun
try increases, however, every year, and
the supply is not equal to that demand—
so that, it is probable, shad and herring
will command excellent prices. The o
pening of every railroad and canal to this
place will add to the value of of the Po

Tut Presbyterian Genenal Assembly.
New School, at its recent Session in Biles
disposed of the vexed question of the Fu
gitive Slave Law, which had been intro
duced into that body, by resolutely refus
ing to pass any resolution against it, min
sidering it a matter of civil government a
lone. A resolution pronouncing the re
quirements and provisions of said law
"entirely opposed to the impulses of hu
manity, to the principles of justice, and to
the precepts of the Bible," was rejected,
with only three dissenting voices. The
Committee made the following 'report
“That the Assembly' be thankful to Di
vine Providence, for the wisdom and pre
deuce vouchsafed to the last Assembly, in
coming to conclusions on this vexed ques
tion, which have so generally met with
the acquiesence of the church at this cri
sis ; and that it seems obviously our privi
lege and duty at the present session, to
leave the whole subject as it was placed
by that action, without further agitation,
and to devote our time to other subjects
which demand attention, always saying
that God would hasten on the day of uni
versal freedom throughout the laud and
world.”
Tea ISSAS/LIM Slave Trade, according

and one of the most prominent has heen
obliged to leave the country. It has been

A Doonir LESSON.—We translate the
following story from a late French paper :
A young man, on leaving college; was
very proud to possess a handsome gold
watch, the highly ornamental chain of
which ho displayed on his vest with much
complacency. Being about to visit Paris,
hie father advised him nut to make so
much parade of his ornaments, as there
were pickpockets there who were ao adroit
that they would, without his perceiving k,
take from him his trinkets and his watch
too. The lather and the ion went to Paris
together, and the caution in regard to the
watch chain was repeated again, but with.
out being heeded. 6.1 defy all the pick.

A MAN GROUND TO POWONN..--One Of
the rnosf-horrible-aecidents it vver bekd us
to record, happened opposite this, city a
bout twelve o'clock night before last, in
Wolfe's Newport Rolliing Mill. A young
man not,more than seventen years of age,
named Christopher Hickman, while enga
ged in oiling the machinery, was caught
betweu twu heavy iron rollers, used for
rolling iron, and passed through, them
with the rapidity of lightning The body
was completely ground to powder ! The
flesh, - bones and all were divided into
small fragments, that no one could recog
nize by sight that a few minutes before
they formed a human being, active End
full,of life-! The sight was awfully heart

men, women and children. fit the after
noon, they were attacked by a gang of row
dies from New York, assisted by Irish
;aborers of Hoboken, and a dreadful riot
ensiled. attended with loss of life. The
Sheriff ordered put the military, and thus
finally iestoroil quia), but the entire affair
Was most disgraceful., The Bergen jail
wits crowded with prisoners, and many of
the wives and children of 'the Germans
were compassionately received into pri

were killed, and a great many seriously
wounded.
