A Boston paper gives a differ ont coloring to the affair.

She is described as having been shrewd and artful, and as having contri buted as largely to the ruin of young men, as any female of hnr character, in the space of time (about 5 years.) The sto- ry of her having been seductd by. the son of a jndge, with whom she resided, is not true." She found the degradation she sought with a young man of her acquaint ance and own standing.

I The , Spanish intelligence published in the 'French papers; and confirmed . by our private letters, is of some importance. It will be seen that the Carlists are draw ing closely to Bilboa, and otherwise pro proceeding almost without interruption from the Christinos.

A trial for breach of promise of marriage was brought to is sue, a few weeks since, .before' the circuit Court of t Livingston county, N, York. Miss. Nancy Griffith being plainUflil and MrJas. Perkins defendant. It was given in evidence 1 that the defendant had paid particular attention ' to Miss 'Nancy for twelve years past,1 until a short time'iince, when he discontinued his visits and mar ried another. There was no express pro mise of marriage existing, and Judge Gardner charged that such a promise was unnecessary, particular attention being all sufficient. The jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff; damages $450, being less than $38 a year, for twelve years, of courting.; This is cheapening female society with a vengeance. Dr. Parley and the Farmer The late Dr. Parle3 having naturally a sweet voice, submitted to the church wardens of Dalston. ne$r Carlisle,' (of which parish ,he was vicar,) the propriety of having a soundingbox put over. his pulpit. While the matter vas discussing in the vestry, "Oh," said a thirsty farmer, "if the doctor would but speak as loud in the pulpit as he does, at christenings and tithe days, faith, I think there would be no occasion to put the jparish to the expense of a sounding box." The doctor, with his characteristic mildness, retorted, ''Friend, you are mistaken; you hear much better out -of the church" than in if. When a manVwordly interest is concerned, he is so Sharp-earjed that he can hear even a whisper ; but the preacher needs the voice of John the B ibtist to rouse the sleepers."

April 8. FATAL ACCIDENT. A young man named Taylor, who has been wagoning between Phijadelphia-and Pittsburg during the whole of the past winter, and must have been exposed to whatever of danger is inseparable from the husiness, without harm, met the stroke of death at a pla-ce, and in a mo ment, when perhaps he least expected it. On Wednesday week, while on the payed1 street near tbje Catholic. Church, in this; place, walking alongside of his horses: taking some steps for the direction of their movement, he was suddenly caught and tripped by the lines, we believe, and thrown down, so that the waggon passed over his body. He- was carried to a house close j by, wh re he lingered until Monday morning last, when he expired. FROM THK N. Y. JOLKNaL Or COMMERCE. , POLICE OFFICE, April 11.

Washington Globe. The 'New York American gives the following anecdote, on the authority of a brother of the officer to whom' it relates "In the fight between General Clinch's troops and the Seminoles on the Ouithla coochee, express directions were given by Oseola to his Indians to avoid shoot ingf Lieut.

As to the 'imaginary insult' over which Oseola is said 'to brood,' it was the pretty positive wro-nir and insult of being put in irons by the United States agent, who had no right ful authority over him.
