Bitting, of Alexandria, preached from the 137th Psalm, 1st verse, as follows ; “Except the Lord build the house, they labor in vain that bui.d it; except the Lord keep the city, the watch | man waketh but in vain.” The eloquent preacher spoke of the union of human instrumentality and divine aid, both necessary to sue He w ho does his duty and trusts in God may confi dently trust himself and his cause in God's hands, and feel a holy peace and quiet “For so he giveth his be loved sheep.” The sermon was rich in Scripture quotations and il lustrations. Delivered with animation and impressive ness. We learn that the Rev. Mr. Buckner, an Indian Mis sionary is here with a converted Indian; Rev. Mr. Caban nis, several years a missionary to China, with a Chinese convert will also be here. All the churches in our town have been placed at the disposal of the Baptist Associa tion, aud its ministers will occupy some one of them eve ry day, and on Sunday all of them will be filled by them. At six o'clock every morniug during the sitting of the Association, a prayer meeting will be held in the Baptist church. Thirty-Sixth Congress— Flrat Session. WasHisoro.N, June 2. SENATE. The bill to settle private land claims in California was taken up and discussed, but, without arriving at a vote, was postponed. The Senate then took up the Army Appropriation MIL The Committee on Military A3 tin reported sundry amendments to the bill, one of which appropriates *1, 188,000 for repairs of Fortifications. The ameudmen's were discussed at length. Without coming to a conclusion upon iho bill, the Seuate at •> o.dock, adjourned. DOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. The House resumed the consideration of Mr. Winslow’s resolution, offered yesterday, directing the Speaker to issue his subpirna for certain witnesses to appear before the Covode Investigating Committee. Mr. Train said, with his sense of duty, he could never allow the minority to dictate the direction of business.— He would, however, listeu to any suggestion from his i colleague on the committee, (Mr. Winslow,) as he bad j always done, with deference; but he repeated he could ' not allow him, or the minority, to dictate to the majority how they shall pursue the investigation. Wo are, ho added, responsible, and therefore should pursue our own wav. Mr. Clark, of Missouri, inquired—Did I understand the gentleman to say the Republicans are in the majority in this House. Mr. Train—I don’t include the gentleman, and that's enough. Mr. Boteier—Does the gentleman include any member of the Southern Opposition?—I; is an imputation on the party to which I have the honor to belong. Mr. Train—Perhaps I ought ';o qualify niv language, that the Republican party is resposible tor legislation in this House. We shall be held responsible to some ex tent for the conduct of this Committee. After further debate, the resolution o( Mr. Winslow, was agreed to—yeas 10S, nays Messrs. Martin, Milson, Reynolds and Stanton. The House then weut into a Committee of the Whole on the private calendar. A number of private bills weie considered, amended in Committee and laid aside to be reported to the House. The Committee then rose and reported sundry bills to the House. The bills were then read, their amenduiOLts agreed to, and some dozen bills read a third time, and passed. The House ihen went into a Committee of the Whole on the State of 'he Union. Mr. Sicwnr’, of Md , address;d the Committee and commented upon tbo political course of Mr. Davis, of MJ. Ho said that the Legislature of Md., had disap proved of the course of Mr. Davis. Mr. Davis said that the State Senate had shirked the vote upon the resolu ion9. He would say thnt the action of the IiOgidature was a peace of unblushing imperti nence. Mr. Stewart inquired if Mr. Davis believed the Senate and the people of Maryland apptoved of his course. Mr. Davis replied, it was a matter of entire indifference to him whether the Senate ol Maryland approved, or tbt House disapproved, of bis course. As to the sentimen of the people of the State, the fall election woulJ indi cate their sentiment", but hi3 course would not be in is sue. When the time canto to consider that course he would have friends enough, both iu his district and out of it. Mr. Stewart, continuing, declared that if it was known iu Maryland that Mr. Davis wished to give aid Mud comfort to the Black Republican party, he could not get more votes than Fremont had received. He thought Mr. Davis’ proper position was in the Republican ranks Even Mr. Eillmote, whom he so much praised, was, be understood, favoring the election of Lincoln and Hamlin. Mr. Maynard, of Tenn., said the gentleman from Mary land was misinformed in relation to Mr. Fillmore. Mr. Florence asked if Mr. Fillmore's Home organ had not hoisted the 11.ig of Lincoln and Hamlin. Mr. M.ivnard itopondcd tliat if the Buffalo Commer cial Advertiser was meant, it was no longer the organ of Mr. Filmore. ne understood however, its edi'or had a con rue for printing Postollice Blanks, fiotu the Ad ministration. (Laughter.) w r»i _ _ —:7 .1 .........I k..J from the Lauds of the Administration by a resolution ot the Ilon-e. Mr. S ewart was glad to hear that Mr. Filmore had not fallen. respected au opponent who declared his t-en timetits openly. Ho hoped that if the conservative mem bers could not vote the democratic t cket, they w ould vote for Bell uttd Kverett. Mr. Morrill, ol Vt., took the floor, but yielded to the point ol order tnude by Mr. Craig of N.C., that no quo rum was present. The committee then arose and at half-past 5 o'clock the House adjourned. TERRIBLE TRAGEDY IN MISSISSIPPI. Attkvi-t to Mi nima a Wat.—The Vicksburg Sun. of Tuesday morning, records as follows a tragedy near that city: A 1 w vr-ars ego Mr. I.afayctte Lee was married to a young lady ol this county, M.ss Hicks, and remained for some time at the residence of his wife’s father. In a short time Lee gave unmistakable evidence of being dis nati-fied, and treated his young wife unkindly. A tem porary separation took pi tee, during which lime Mrs. Lee remained at her father’s bouse, until a reconciliation »«" effected. I-ae, a few month- - go, went to Ha. lehur-t for the purpose ol teaching sc’.ou II<* wa- misucv.esflful, and finally returned to this county und solicited the as si-tance of Mr. Flower-, (who was a relative, i Mr. Flow ers generously tendered the hospitalities of his house to Mr. Lee and his wife, »bo accepted them. .Mr. F. fr • quently s»w enough to convince him* If that l."e treated his wife ut.kindly, and remonstrated with him, and urged him to make some exertion to support his family, prof fering to a.<si»t him in anv laudable effort. On the after noon of Friday las;, Mrs. Lee sat down to play a game of chess with Mr! Flowers—Lee occupying a po-ition imme diately behind Mr. F. In a few moment- an expression of horror was noticed upon the fare of Mrs. I,’*, who appeared to be g.zing at her husband. Mr. Flower', thinking perhaps tnat Lm was sud i. nlv taken ill, turned u' vask- 1 tu'u w tia' was ti.c matter. The at, wer given was that nothing was ike matter with him. He resumed hi< play when the report of a pistol was heard, and Mrs. Lee started convulsively, exclaiming that she was sho’. Mr. F. immediately caught her on his left arm and sup ported her sinking form. L-e now advanced and fired again at his wife and once at Mr. Flowers. Mrs. Lee, bv this time, had sat.lt neatly to the lic-or, supported bv the left arm of Mr. Flowers, who drew a revolver from his pocket and partially turning, fired five times (over his shoulder) at Lee. Eu-h ball took effect in the face ot Lee—one near the right t**mp!e—one near the middle of the forehead—ore near the left temple—one in the j iw aud the other just nbove the mouta. L- e fell and died immediately. The wound inflicted upon Mrs. Iwe w as ol a most dangerous character. RATIFICATION MEETING IN CULPEPER. At a meeting of the Constitutional Union I’artv, held in the Court Houut ol this county, on Monday, the Iknli iii't., fur t;:e purpose of ratifying the nominations of the Baltimore Convention, on uo'ioti of Daniel F.

Railroads, steamboats aud stage coaches complain of dead hading—that is to sav, ot preachers, editors and brethren of the craft riding so much without pay. The newspaper press endures more of ibis dead heading than all three of these modes of conveyance combiued. The pulpit, the bar, and the theatre, corporation*, legislative assemblies, societies, religious, benevoleut, agricultural, merchantile establishment.*, venders of quack medicines, railroad companies, steamboats, stage lines, ami even variety of individuals, including political parties and pol iticians, draw largely upon the Press. The Press is ex pected to yield to all these interests; it is required to give strength to all weak institutions and enterprises ; it is asked to pujf small preachers into overshadowing pul pit orators; to purf small politicians and unprincipled demagogues into great men and patriots ; to magnify incompetent Raiboad ollicers into Rail road Kings; it is expected to herald abroad the fame of quacks, of all classes, bolster up dull authors, immortalize weak Congressional speech es; it is required to give sight to the blind, bread to the hungry, talents to fools, aucl honor to thieves and rob bers; it is asked to cover up the infirmities of the weak, to hide the faults of guilty men. and wnk at tbe fraudu lent schemes of scoundrels; it is expected to Hatter the vain, to extol the merits of thase who deserve nothing but the scorn and contempt of all gooJ citizens; it is re quired in a word, of the newspaper pres*, that it becomes all things to all men; and if it look for pay, or send out its bills for subscriptions and aivertising, it is denounced as mean and sordid, and i;s conductors a« wanting in liberality. There is no interest on the face of the green earth, that is expected to give as much to society, without pay or thanks, as the newspaper press of the country.— The little souled man, who imerts iu your columns a fif teen sbilliug advertisement, eipects you to write him out at least fire dollars worth of editorial notices. And the obscure and niggardly man rou hare written into a posi tion of importance, far beyond his merits, considers that his name adorns your columns, and gives circulation to your journal!—Brownlovs. A Minister Shot.—Tne Wilmington, (N. C.) Herald of the 30th ult., says: A friend of Rockingham, Richmond county, writes us that the Rev. John Chambets residing in the lower part of Montgome-y county, was ihot and iustantlv killed on tbe 23rd inst, while in the act of passing through his gate into the yard of his duelling. One of his own ne groes U suspeoted of haring dine the deed, and has run away. Mr. C. waa trained and pious minister of the goapeU. I DEMOCRATIC PROSPECTS. OPINION OP HON. WILLIAM L. YANCIT. Hon. W. L. Yancey is stumping Alabama. A few daya ago be made a speech at Marion, of which tbe following is the conclusion : I deny that the Baltimore Convention, as now consti tuted, represents tbe Democracy of tho Union. Democ racy is a principle oi government. It was inaugurated by Jefferson. Its principle is the basis of the celebrated Virginia snd Kentucky resolutious of 1798 aud 1799, to wit: The equality of tbe States, and of the people there of, in the Uuion, and the reserved rights of the States.— That great pivot principle of the Democratic creed has been violated by the Squatter Sovereignty principle of the platform adopted by the Charleston Convention, a principle which places the constitutional rights of the slave States, and of the citizens thereof, moving into a Territory, at the mercy of a numerical majority of anti slavery men. That platform, too, on which that Conven tion asks the Democratic masses of the Democratic States to stand, is one which the representatives of the Demo cratic masses of every Democratic State had rejected. If Democracy, therefore, is a great principle—if its leading idea is equality of the States, and equality of tbe people of the States—aud if the platform adopted was voted against by every Democratic Stato os a violation of that principle: I ask by what process of reasoning can such a Convention be considered as a just and fair repre sentative of the Democracy of the Uniou, especially when it is opposed by a Convention of Democratic States, em bodied upou the sound Jeflersonian Democratic principle of the equal rights of the Stitcs, the equal rights of the people of each State, aud protection to those rights by each and every department of the Government. Fellow-citizens, ours is a noble position, based upon the Constitution—recognized as such by oft-repeated declarations of the Democracy—su.- tained by tbe rea soning of its ancient leaders—proposing aggression upon no ouo—determined to submit to wrong from no one. Upon this issue we can rejoice in victory, for it will be justly and honorably obtained; or, if even s bring ns de feat, we shall be devoid of shame, because we will have deserved success. NKW YORK AND DOCGI.A3. A letter from Washington says : George N. Sanders was on the floor of the House to day. He reports the New York delegation r.o* for Douglas, and when Douglas reaches one hundred and seventy-four votes it is understood that the Virginia Del egation arc to wheel into his liue. John Stryker while here assured various persons iha» New York would vote for Seymour at Baltimore, provided the South would support him. The Breckinridge interest promised this with the understanding that, failing to get Seymour, New York should go for Breckinridge. Stryker an nounced himself commis-ioned to make arrangements for the New York delegation. Politics at Washington.—7he Police countenancing | Rowdies—The f lection of Mayor takes place in Washing- j ton to day, and wiil be a most exciting contest, therp be ing three candid ties in the fled—Berrett, Democrat; Ma- | grader, Independent Democrat; and Wallacb, Opposition. I At a meeting of the friends of Dr. Hagruder, on Saturday ; night, the Democrats rallied to break up the meeting, in reim-ncc to which, the Star says : '.Dr. M. a Idressed the crowd with frequent interruptions ; to: about one hour, but was finally compelled to retire before a shower of stones which were flung at him by some cowards who were there. Wc never witnessed a more disgraceful sc netharijthat which followed and con tinued until the meeting broke up, during which the Chief of Police, his two lieutenants, and some fourteen of his ••'arget company" looked calmly and smilingly on, and 1 absolutely insulted those who appealed to them for pro- j lection from the violence of the mob. Dr. Magruder was frequently interrupted whilst speak- ! rag, which is thus described by the Star: During the delivery of this portion of Dr. Magruder’s rv An.I.-ivA. ,..u ... ..I,. .1_I.:_I ... and break up the meeting. The most obscene epithet- , were applied to him, (notwithstanding there were a nutii- | her of ladies present,) the fire bella were rung, missiles thrown at the speaker, and cries of “Pull down the stage” uttered fioui many quarters. The police, with Captain (ioddurd at their head, were there, but, we are sorry to sav, nude no attempt, whatever to preserve or d> r and prevent the speakers ftotn being interrupted — Accordingly, many respectable gentlemen, finding it im possible to bear what was said, and becoming disgusted, it not frightened, with the action of the rowdies present, who were allowed to have full sway, were compelled to retire. SHOOTING CASK AT ALEX ANURIA—A T T A C K WITH A KNIFE AND KEPULSIOX WITH A PIS TOL. Aifxam>ku, Va., June 1, P. W.—A young man.oared Courtenay Brent, sou of John Brent, of this place, was tc-day shot here by his brother-in law, Dr. M. .VI. Lewis, one of our most estimable physicians. Various reports exist—the nicst probable ol which is that this morning unpleasant words passed between the parties; that Brent went home, armed himself with a large knife, and pro ceeded to tht- doctor’s dwelling Ou his way he avowed his intention to kill the doctor. One of Brent’s brothers left to waru the doctor, but got there too lute. Courle my Brent, arm d and de'trmined, reached the doe or’s house and commenced the attack. The doctor fired, the ball passing hrougli his assailant’s writ. Theos.-uhint then chanced the knife to the other hand, and advanced. A -ecor.d ball lired by the doctor encred Courtnay Brent’s table and a third took efleet on the cheek-bone and lanc.-d, when tie fell. On the appearance of the father ot Brent thedoe’or discontinued hi tire. It does not appear tint the wounds are mortal, fhe standing of the family ir uch as to excite much interest iu the case. The doctor addressed a note to tue mayor appri-ing him of his readiness 'o obi y any summons, but the case is so clearly one ol self-defence that no call has been ir. iJe upon hitn. You ig Brent, as is well know n, h is a most uiTortunato temper, which for the sake of him.etf and his connec ions all hope will be bet cr disciplined hereafier. One of W». C. Pkmton’sSpeeches.—One speech of Win C Pri.‘ton, beyond and above everything else, we recollect as Laving most fully taken captive our sensei and paralysed our reason. It was delivered at the old Log Cabin in Richmond, iu lo-L', during the Hairison campaign, and came, near the close of the etiugglc, after such a snccer-ion of brilliant and impassioned harangue! as perhaps Richmond will never hear again, from Gov. Barbour, Benjamin Watkins Leigh, George Poindexter, Waddy Thomp-on, W, U. K.v s and Hugh 8. Legare.— The cabin was filled 10 ovcitlowiug. The speech lasted about two hours. At first, there was the frequent and loud applause of excited partisans, delighted with the adrocite ol their cause. Then tbo plaudits were lees frequent. The spi ll was beginning to work. The fasci nation was deepening every moment. By and by, men h. M their breath to catch every word of the more than Pythonic rage. At last their knees begun to knock to gether, there seemed some impending de-olatioti in the word- of the speaker as be described the future ot the country, nud the tire, a« it were, visible descended upon M triin Van Buren, who was blasted, incinerated by his imperial scorn in the prc-cnce of the assembled universe. Never have wr w itnessed such a seene before or since.— We would not care to witness such another. We would not be so bereft of our faculties, we should fear the Oir ceati transformation of Counts, could we hear the like again. It exceeded all we hud ever imagined of .Sher ri ui, all that had ever been soggt sted to us of Mirabeau. — Ptternburg Esprtn. The Jap.asfse Fuha-sv —On Friday last the Japanese visited the Patent and United States Coast Survey ofli cs, in Washington, and are sii.l to have been highly de light! d with everything they mw. It was the intention of the conimilb e having them in charge to take them to the Smithsonian Institution, where Prof. Henri had made armugi loetits lor their reception, but tliev could not he Dtevuiled on to accept the invitation. Thev have not the |ea»t inclination to po out, but prefer foremaiu quiet in il.eir rooms—and it is with great difficulty, says the Star, that the committee can induce them to visit even the most prominent places. They have no curiosity to see anything, but are apparently most contented when in their quarters employing their time after their peculi ar fashion, in qjtlier -tnoking, lying down, or writing.— They express a .strong desire to return home immediate ly—this, however, is the case only with the officers, for in nothing do the att ndmts tike more |lelight than in walking through the principil thoroughfares, and close ly examining au i making inquiries with regard to the ] various objects which may strike their fancy. SCANDALOUS NEW ENGLAND RECORD. In Weymouth, Mass., a voung nun first seduced, and then poisoned two of his sisters, both of whom were en eiente by him at the period of their death. Dr. H. D. Alien, in Rutland, Vt., having entered upon a criminal connection with the wife of his most intimate friend, got rid of his own by poison. Otis S Ward, the husband of an affectionate wife and two children, residing at Cliftondale, Mass., left them for a girl belonging to a band of roving Indians. J. R. Burd, a magistrate in Stark county, Mass., de cried his wife and children and eloped w ith his servant i girl. Silas Howland, of Portland, N. H., eloped with his brother’s wife. Heavy Robbery ok a Faro Bank.—The Boston Bee, of May 30th, savs that a well known room on Court street, in that city, used for gambling purposes, was en tered on Sunday night last and robbed of $6,000 or $7, 000 belonging to a faro bank. The treasure was taken from an iron safe, which was forced open. The affair which has just leaked out, is making no little sensation in certain circles about town. The robbery is supposec to have been committed by parties who have been victimized. Th-y doubtless ar gue that, having been cheated out of their money, the game is only equal when thus recovered. The police have as yet no official informanion in rela tion to the matter. Those who live ia gla-( bouses, when prudent, do Dot throw stoucs. The sum taken is consid erable, though it will probably impose very little suffer ing on any one. The faro is an illegitimate institution, end as such its proprietors will hardly care to have their affairs investigated. THE APPROPRIATION BILLS—ADJOURNMENT, kc Washington, June 3.—It is understood that at an in formal caucus or meeting of Democratic Senators yester day, it was determined to push forward action upon the appropriation bills, with a view to agreeing to the resolu tion of the House for an adjournment on the 18 h. If this be done the tariff bill and other important legislative measures must inevitably get the "po bp." The Repub licans threaten to oppose to the bi ter end any legisla'ion affording temporary relief to the treasury, by authorizing the re-issue of treasury notes. Mons. De Lave performed the feat of crossing the chasm near Paterson Falls, (N. J.) on a rope, last Thurs day, in the presence of a number of spectators. The plifce selected for the performance was below the Falls, where the river passes through a gorge at least six hun dred feet la width and nearly two hundred feet deep.
