same place, at night. Eider A. E. Dickinson
read the Colportage Report, giving the result
of the labors of the Colporteurs during the past
year, reading extracts from their reports to
the Board. The following is a summary of
tbe statistics embraced iv this report: Col
porteurs employed, K5; families visited, Ui.'.rbl';

the past tbreeyoars these Colporteurs have vis
ited 107,791 familltrs, of whom 5,759 were desti
tute of the Bible or of all other religious books;
delivered 5,750 sermons and addresses; gave
away R3i_B 40 worth of boobs, aud sold g:i.,-
71 worth.
Interesting addresses were delivered by Bro.
Cooke, of Botetourt, Lt. <lov. R. L. Montague,
Elder H. F. Buckner, Missionary to the Creek
Indians, and Elder E.G. Ship; after which
tbe report was adopted. (Hikers to compose
the Board were appointed.
A resolution was ottered by 11. K. Elly&on, to
raise j* K),oou for tlieSunday School Board, and
after prayer by Elder Hume, the Convention
adjourned till 8 o'clock. P.M. ]
The afternoon was devoted entirely to the i
examination of the pupils of the Asylum for
the Deaf and Dumb. The trtrtu from ihe East
had brought a considerable udditiun to the!
numbers of the member* of the Association ;
several of the ablest ministers of the denomi
nation in this State, aud some trom other
Status, being among tbem. He v. Mr. Cuban is*
and the Cbiuese convert also came ; the latter
cr-ated quite a sensation wherever he went.
The large chapel at the Asylum was uentely
crowded to witness tbe performances of the
pupils in the various branches of learning
taught them: Drawing, singiug, reading, or
tbograplry, painting, arithmetic, geography,
I algebra, trigonometry, French and tbe sign
language. A beautiful little girl, only Rv*
mouths in the institution, Mary C. Latinb, ot
Norfolk city, gave, m tbe most graceful and
winning manner, the signs for love, bate,
beauty, prayer, A.c, ihe teacher interpreting
them; another beautiful Hebe, MissC. W, S.
Nichols, of Harrison conuty, recited by sign*
the Lord's prayer. There were also perform
ances by the band, (blind pupils,) instrumen
tal aud vocal, whim did credit to both pupils
and instructors. Perhaps there never has
been an occasion when so many persons from
the different sections of tbeStaie were pre
sent to witness an examination in this Insti
tution. As a citizen ol this good old Common
wealth, I felt proud that she bad within her
borders such a noble Institution, aud every
one present prayed heartily for its prosperity.
Among the visitors were several Presidents,
Professors of colleges and schools, teacher*
and scholars of good repute, and tne exami
nations were of a character to elicit their ap
probation.
Tbe Chiuese gentleman was an object of
great interest to tbe deaf mute pupils ; every
one ol them rising to look at bim, and by sigu*
communicated to each other their thougttts
respecting bun.
The exercises at the chapel occupied three
hours, and it was time usefully aud profita
bly spent.
Elder P. H. llenson, Principal of the Flu
vanna Female Institute, preached to-nightin
tbe Lutheran church.
Iv tbe Baptist Church the snbject of educa
tion was considered. Rev. Dr. Kyland read
the Report, which elicited adiscussion, lasting
for two hours And a half, and was participated
in by able gen tlemen—Elders Watkiuson, Poin
dcxter, Sampson, Rylaud, Jeter, Burrowa,
Long, Win. Sands, A. Broad us and A. li. Sand*,
Esq.—the latter part relating to tbe proposi
tion to buy the Blue Sulphur Springs, at 840,
--000, for a College. A large audience was pres
ent during this discussion, who manifested
great interest iv the subject.
To-day the State Mission will be brought
up, and the Keport of the labors of tbe Mis
sionaries in the Slate heard.
The hospitality of tbe citizens of Staunton
is unbounded, it is equal to that of Uld Vir
ginia anywhere within her borders, aud the
large number of Baptist* now here, from all
parts of the Commonwealth, tests that hospi
tality.
On Sunday, the pulpits of all the churches
will be occupied by some of tbe many able
ministers ettendiug the Association.

QI'LV -VnxßiEi*— A Speck of War.— A speck j
of trouble looms up in our northeastern hori
zon, growing out of the action of the French
war vessel* m interfering with the Canadian
fisheries iv the tlulf ot St. Lawrence. Tbe
case is this:
There are two small islands off the northern
shore of tbe Straits of Belleisle, tbe northern
outlet of the t.ulf of St. Lawrence. Twe is
lands were settled by tbe French, but were
captured by tbe English, and upon tbe treaty
of peace were restored to ths French upon
agreement that there should be no building*
erected thereon, except such as should be need
ed for tbecarryingon the fisheries. Tbe French
agreed that no fortification* should be erected
aud no soldiers exceeding fifty In number
were to be stationed there. Tbe French, bow
ever, have erected several batteries, aud it is
said uo less than thirty thousand sailors, of
tbe French Marine force, are vow actively en
gaged iv the waters adjacent. The batteries
now erected are sufficient to control the
Strait*, and a French squad rou is statiouedat
the Island ot St. Pierre. British colonial ves
sels have been repeatedly tired ou by tbe
prsiicb armed vessels, and the Ciundiau
fl-be-rmen have been driven from the waters.
Not being able to pick a quarrel with England
by _tesg means, France na* now claimed a
uarl of Newfoundland. The whole matter j
Las been laid betore Parliament by Mr. Haiti- \
burton, and Xeord Joha Russell has been called
Ul w, n for tbe correspondence between tbe two
couutrie*. TheCaeadmn people, wo awe, are
ereattv exercised about the matter, and great
i tear- are entertained as to tbs *_migi_" of the

ARRIVAL OP THE PORT EXPRESS.

The pony eapreoe, with tbe dispatches and
mail musing from tbs pony express which ar
rived Tnesday evening last, arrived at St. Jo
seph's, Friday. No explanation ia given na to
the cans* of iv detention. Tha mail waa aU
sal*).
San Frakcisco, May 18—3.40 P. M Tbe
last pouy express took tbe intelligence that
several American* bad been murdered by tbe
Indian* while asleep at Miller** atation, oa
Carson river, some thirty miles from the set
tlement* of Carson Valley, and also that va
rious companies had organised at Virginia
City, Gold Kill and other settlement* in the
Washoe Mines, and gone in pursuit of tbe In
dians, supposed to have committed tbe mur
ders. It subsequently appeared that those
volunteers united in ons body, and under tbs
command of Major Orrasby they were mount
ed, and numbered 105 men. This force, on the
13th inst., at 4 P. M., came upon Indians at
the bend of the Cluicbie river, about G5 mile*
northward, toward* Pyramid lake from Vir
gin in City.
The Indians were in nmbushat a narrow
pass through which Major Ormsby *s party
were proceeding aud numbered, it ia supposed,
no: less than Aye hundred, all having fire- j
arm*, plenty of ammunition,and 1,500 horses
within a convenient distance. Tbey opened a
Are upon tbe troops from their safe hiding
place; Major Ormsby ordered a charge, bnt
the Indian** continued to skulk, firing occa
sionally from bebind the rocks and sage
bushes, and doing damage, without suffering
much in return. This condition of things con
tinued for some two hours, when the ammu
nition of Ormsby** party gave out. The In
dians, seeing this, closed upon our men, pour
ing in volley after volley, killing many ou tbe
snot, and the balance retreated, scattering in
all directions over the bills and among the
sage bushes. They were pursued twenty-five
or thirty miles by the mounted Indians, and
many detached iter ties cut off.
The survivors _inie stragglinginto Virginia
City daring tbe two subsequent days. The
exact number of killed is not yet ascertained,
but it probably exceeds fifty. Among the slain
are Major Ormsby, Henry Meredith, a distin
guished California lawyer; Mr. S. Speer,
Richard Snowden, Mr. Arsington, Dr. Jader,
Charles Berans, James Lee,T. Johnson,Chas.
McLeod, John Sileming, of Anderson , And'w
Schealld, M. Keuzorwitch, Jno. Garni bo, A.
K. Elliott, W. Hawkins, Geo. Jones, William
Macintosh. O. McNaughton. Total known to
be killed, °.l; wounded, :i; fate unknown, li;
returned alive, 3S.
Wagons have been sent out to pick np any
wounded that may be found, and also an
drmed force to protect parties burying the
dead, but no account is yet received from the
battle ground.
Very exaggerated accounts of this battle
Were telegraphed tit all parts of California ou
the 13th. It was first reported that all Orms
by's men were killed except six ; that tbe vic
torious Indiana, numberingv,(it»o, were march
ing upon Virginia (hty, determined to kill all
the American citizens in the Washoe mines;
that all the Indians from Walker river, South
to Humboldt river on the north, were iv full
war paint, and had sent away their women
and children; and that while thus threatened
wiih destruction, t.be Americans in the Wa
shoe mines had no bran* or ammunition for
defence.
These exaggerated reports caused powerful
exertions throughout California to send re
lief. At Placerville and Sacramento the people
assembled and raised abeat S't.tiiKt and fitted
out a company of well tinned volunteers, who
started from Plncervilleon their way ovtar the
mom-tains ou the l-lth. On the 15 th, 150 vol
unteers started out from Ilownieville. and
another company from Nevada. All the prin
cipal military companies in the S.ate ex
pressed their readiness to embark on the same
day.
The State authorities promptly dispatched
'.'.lion stand of arms, with a good supply ol
ammunition. General Clark,commanding tbe
Pacific division of the United Slates army,
dispatched from San Francisco on the 14th one
huudred and titty United States troops, which
were all tbe available men in Central Califor
nia, together with Mil standof arras and 100,000
rounds of ammunition. He also sent orders
that one hundred United States soldiers, sta
tioned at Henry Lake, one hundred miles !
north of Cirsou Valley, proceed to the Pyra
mid Lake region, aud aid in suppressing hos
tilities.
These movements warrant ihe belief that
there are now not less than 300 well armed
volunteers from California, and 200 L'nited
Beaten soldiers ready lor duty on tbe eastern
slope of the mountains— au ample force to
protect the people as long as unpaid volun
teers can afford to remain iv the field.
At last accounts, all hostile Indians were
to the north of the pony express and SallLak*
mail aud emigrant route, and the troop* will
be so posted as to keep that route open.
The Indians on tbe eastern side of the moun
tains, extending north into Oregon and west
ward into the interior of Utah, number proba
bly *2,0t)0. and from their contiguity to the
Mormons and other unavoidable cause*, are
all liable to become hostile to the Americans,
unless permanent mean* are taken by the
government to restrain them. At least 500
United States soldiers should be stationed in j
different exposed points between tbe Hum
boldt aud Walker rivers.
lie porta of silver discoveries in the North
Umphus country continued favorable, aud
silver aud lend mines at the head of Sautaire
t river attracted attention. i
1 News fiin British Columbia is very mea
gre. The Chinese emigration continued very
large, aud 1,000 were expected before the Ist of
August.
A large number of miner* were reported on
their way from the Similkameen mine* to Al
exander, in search of better diggings.
The mines on the upper and lower Frazer
river were doing well.
I'istuessiso Accideet.—A pleasure party,
consisting of *Win. and Alexander Hoig, MUa
Eti_a Bauer and Miss Ellen Martin, went on
a boating excursion from Toronto on the-5 th
ult, in which three of them, including the
two ladies, were drowned. The Leader says:
"tine of the party, endeavoring to make
some necessary cbauge in the position of the
sail, suddenly upset tbe boat, aud the whole
four were immersed in «be water. A struggle
for life, of the most terrible nature, ensued—
the women screaming piteously aud crying
aloud, but iv vaiu, lor bait*. The young men,
on rising irom the water, seized the boat, now
turned bottom up, and quickly paddled it
with their bands toward Miss Martin, who
was floatitig in the waterashort distance from
tbem. Ou reaching her, Alexander, ihe elder,
endeavored to draw bei toward tbe vessel, but
•he «se.i~ed and clung to him with fatal tenaci
ty, eventually dragging bim down by her
weigbt, until tbey both *ank, to rise no more.
Miss Baker, after ineffectual attempts to buoy
herself up, also became lost to view, and none
was left above the water but William. He
maintained__ hold of ths boat, and being a
tolerably expert swimmer, managed by its aid
to gaiu the shore, almost exhausted with the
effort, aud overburdened with grief. The sor
rowful tale soon spread through the city, aud
created a very painful sensation. Mis* Maker
was about ao years of age, and possessed many
personal attraction*. Miss Martin was also
in the full enjoyment of youth."
! Stbi ck r.v Liohthimo.—A son of Audrew
Tetrick, in Marion couuiy, Va, was killed by

DISPATCH.
Tbe Marder lo t'v*Hae—Farther Pnr
tlciilars.
Thsranrd*rofMark_.Bonlwar»,awealthy
citiaan of Caroline county, Va., nt Port Royal,
in that county, by members of Robinson A
Lake's Circut Company, on the night of tbe j
29th nit., ba* been mentioaed. Oa Wednes
day morniag tbe clrcna company arrived in
Frederisksbnrg. Tbe New* any*:
Abont 10 o'clock it was rumored that they
bad bad n fight in Port Royal Tueaday night,
aad that Mr. Mark L. 800 l war* bad been
cruelly beaten, and bad *ince died of hi* inju
ries. Tbe rumor was doubted and denied.—
Aiixiou* group* of men conversed mysteri
onsly at street corner*. Meanwhile the circus
men proceeded in tbeir preparations for es
bibition. Tbey were reported to be desperate
characters—onebnndred and fifty in number.
An express was expected every moment from
Port Royal. An excitement—quiet but earn
est—took possession of the town. At last a
black man was found wbo bad seen Mark
Boulware'* dead body that morning. It waa
determined to arrest tbe circus men. Tbe vol
unteer companies were ordered to assemble at
tap of the drum.
At night citiaens of Port Royal arrived. Af
ter consultation, the Mayor and two citizens,
escorted by tbe military, proceeded lo the cir
ca* and entered just a* the performance* were
abont to concluue—announced that tbe whole
party were arrested, and took possession ot
the menagerie, Ac. An examination before tbe
Mayor was commenced and carried on till _
o'clock in tbe morning, aud then adjourned
till 10 o'clock Thursday. Tbe entire circn*
company, with two exception*, were called
and tent to an upper room lo await examina
tion. About forty were examined, including
aix or eight from Fort Royal. Tbe examina
tion terminated in the discharge of ail of tbs
parlies from custody.
The testimony elicited in theexamination of
aome forty witnesses seemed to establish at
least these fact* connected with the killing of
Mark L. Boulware: That deceased bad been
one of a party engaged in several ditncullies
with the showmen during tbe day. Tbat be
tween a and 10 o'clock at night, be was with a
party of friends, one of whom challenged tbe
showmen to a fight, and that these—consisting
of men whose duty it was to attend to tbe
canvas and horse departments—were re
strained from leaving the back yard of the
hotel by Mr. Robinson, the proprietor of the
circus. The party of Mr. Boulwure then went
down street and separated. Soon thereafter a
cry was heard, apparently fifty yards from tbs
hotel, of "Help, Rube," or some such phrase,
(which was proved to be a private signal
among tbe showmen wben w&arting help.)—
That directly thereafter, some tltteer. ot tba
men of tbe canvas and bostlery depai tmenta,
jumped over the fence and hastened in the di
rection of the cry. They were seen to leave
the yard—were seen by at least one person to
the first corner—then on to the second corner,
where tbey were seen, and three distinct blow*
heard; alter they bad passed on, tbe prostrate
body of a man was discovered by a citizen liv
ing on the opposite side of the street. Dr. M.
Boulware, wbo was standing on tbe inside of j
the lot of Mr. Brooks, went over to see wbo j
bad been knocked down, and found it to be hi* j
brother, Mark L. Boulware. |
Tbis was abont balf-past ten o'clock at
night, aud the night was not a clear one. Nei
ther Mr. Brooks nor Dr. Boulware observed
any one s lauding at tbe coiner as the show men
were approaching that spot. Several friends
of the deceased bad seen bim about ten minutes
before he received the blow which killed bim,
bin he appears to have been by himself at tbe
time. He was picked up insensible and never
spoke afterwaids, living until ball-past two
o'clock—some four hours. Whilst Mr, Rob
in.en did all hecould to prevent v disturbance,
there seems to be no reasonable doubt that the
murder was committed by a part of the force
employed in the canvas and bostlery depart
ment of the circus, who rushed from tbe sta
ble yard, down the street, and who attacked,
beat and run, two or three others of those that
hud d.-ued the showmeu lo a tight a few hour*
belt re iv front of the hotel.
The City op Nalvoo— The Prophet Smith's
Family.—A Chicago delegate returning to bia
home, visited tbe ruins of Nauvoo city, and
givts the following description of It:
A vast extent of ground is covered by the
ruins of this city. Streets beautifully laid
out, wide and spacions, macadamized and in
good order, afford evidence ot good taste and
systematic i-esigu. Numbers of large brick
bouses, with doors gone, windows broken, and
partially unroofed and useless, iv every sense
ot the term. A very large uufinished brick
hotel, with marble cuppings, is in the centre
of the city, a very picture of desolation and
destruction. The site of the town is unsur
passed by any ou the river. It is most admira
bly adapted lor the wants of a large city; ac
ces-a to it is easy, by land and water, die cli
mate is genial, and tbe general condition of
the place healthy. Since tbe departure of the
French tbe Germans have flocked there in
crowds, and now occupy tbe greater portion
of the city. j
Young Joe Smith, the son of the Prophet, is
twenty-six years of age, aud occupies tbe
house in which bis father first lived. He be
lieves, as did bis tatber, iv all tbe Mormon
doctrines, except tbe one which countenances
tbe plurality of wives. He is a justice of tbe
peace, and lives on his property. Hi- bouse
resembles au old-fashioned, gable-ended New
England farm bouse, surrounded by a neat
itlot of ground, thickly studded with trees.—
.n the drawing room, hangs a portrait of ibe
old prophet himself, whicii looks just as be
did, cow lick aud ail, twenty years ago. Mr. |
Smith is highly respected by his fellow towns
men, on whom be does not attempt to obtrude
bis opinions. He does not bold a great deal
of lauded property here, tbough be has avail
able means elsewhere.
Tbe relict of Prophet Smith some time
since married a Mr. liiaiheimer, wbo, with
her, occupies the house iron, which tbe brsi
busbund was driven. He is considerable of a
' man, and "knows bow to keep a hotel," that
being tbe present occupation ot himself aud
all that remains to tell tbe mournful tale ot
old Smith, the great defnr.ct. The hotel in
winch they entertain the travelling weary
was formerly tbe headquarters of the faith
ful. Tbe alarm bell still hangs, though rope
less, in tbe belfry, and evidences of ihe
Prophet's love of style are many aud varied.—
A hue grapery is iv lull gruwtb at the side of
the bouse, and the only decent orchard l have
seeii since leaving Chicago is ia tbe rear. Tbe
lady is about sixty years of 'age. She has a
tine ligure, portly and fair, and is evidently a
kind-bear ted and benevolent lady, wbo is
tinctured a little with tbe spirit of tbe tradi
tional Yankee, and who agrees With the
Scriptoies that it is not good lor man to live
alone.
The Vacancy vi'ON tub Si i-ukme Bench
Much interest is of course lot t hen- iv tbe so
lution of tht* question who shall succeed the
late Judge Daniel upon tbe Supreme Court
bench. From present appearances, the selec
tion bids fair to be made from three distin
guished gentlemen of Mississippi, viz . Tbe
Hon. Wiley P. Harris, and Judcts William L.
Harris and ... C. Handy. The flret named is
now the most eminent member of tbe bar of
Mississippi, and a gentleman of high personal
character and great worth. Tbe two latter
are both eminent State-Court Judges at tbia
time. However, perhaps a dozen names are
already being pressed upon the Presideut as
those of candidates to fill the vacancy.— Wash.

The Late Judoe Daniel — The demise of
Judge Dauiel, of the Supreme Court of the
Cuited State*, having beennnnouneed yester
day by telegraph, it may be proper to suite
that the officers of the Supreme Court took
immediate steps for paying the respect of pro
ceeding to Richmond and at tending bis funeral:
but were advised by telegraph that the funeral
would take place yesterday afternoon, which
precluded tbe possibility ol tbeir reaching that
city in time. We understand alto that the
venerable Cbief Justice would have attended
tbe funeral of bis deceased colleague had time
allowed it, and the state of bia health per
mitted him to lCilve home.— National Intelli

A GXR-AK-A-BRICAK V EIVBRKITY. — A

tbe consideration of the urgent importance of
auc-h aa institute, tbe necessary initiatory
steps were taken to call the enterprise into ex
istence. A cumiuittee was aptroiuted to tabs
the matter in hand forthwith, consisting of
forty gwuttemeu from all parts of theceuniry,
wbo have especially i uteres ted themselves iv

ed ihe consideration of Mr. Wioslow'a resolu
tion, offered yesterday, directing tbe Speaker
to issue bis subpoena for certain witnesses to
appear before the Covode Investigating Com*
niit'ee.
Mr. Train said, with bis aanae of dnty, bs
could never allow tbe minority to dictate tbe
direction of business. He woald, bowever,
listen to any suggestion from bis colleague on
the commit tee, (Mr. Winalow.) as be bad al
ways done, witb deference; bus be repeated,
he could not allow him. or the minority, to
dictate to tbe majority bow tbey shall pursue
tbe investigation. We are, be added, respon
sible, and therefore should pursue onr own
way.
Mr. Clark, of Missouri, inquired—Did I un
derstand tbe gentleman to any tbe Republican*
are in tbe majority in this House I
Mr. Train. -I don't inclnds tbs gentleman,
and that's enough.
Mr. Boteier.—Does tbe gentleman include
any member of th* Southern Opposition I It
is an imputation on tbe party to wbicb 1 nave
the honor to beloug.
Mr. Train.—Perhaps I ought to qualify my
language, that the Republican party is respon
sible for legislation iv tbis House. We shall
be held responsible to some extent far the con
duct of this Committee.
Affr further debate, tbe resolution of Mr.
Winslow was agreed to—yeas lt>s, nay* Messrs.
Martin. Millson, Reynolds nnd Stanton.
Tbe House ihen went into a Committee of
the Whole on the private calendar,
A number of private bills were considered,
amended in Committee and laid aside to be re
ported to tbe House.
Tbe Committee then rcse nnd reported ins.
dry bills to the House. The bill* were then
read, tbeir amendments agreed to. and some
do/en bills read a third time and passed.
The House then went into Committee of tbe
Whole on the State of the Union.
Mr. Stewart, of Md., addressed the Com
mittee, and commented npon the political
course of Mr. Davis, of Md. He said that tbe
Legislature of Md. bad disapproved of tbe
course of Mr. Davis.
Mr. Ihwis said that the State Senate had
shirked the vote upon the resolution*. He
would say that tbe action of the Legislature
was a piece of unblushing impertinence.
Mr. Stewart inquired if Mr. Davis believed
the Senate and th>» people of Maryland ap
proved of his course.
Mr. Davis replied, it was a matter of entire
ieditrerence to him whether the Senate ot Ma
ryland approved or the House disapproved of
bis course. As to tbe sentiment of lhe people
of the State, tbe fall elections would indicate
tbeir sentiments, but bis course would not be
in issue. When the time came to consider
that course be would have friends enough,
both iv his district and out of it.
Mr. Stewart continuing, declared that if it
was known in Maryland that Mr. Davis
wished to give aid and comfort to the If lack
Republican party, be could not get more vote*
than Fremont bad received. He thought Mr.
Davis' proper position was in tbe Republican
ranks. Even Mr. Fillmore, whom lie had so
much praised, was, he understood, lavorlug
tbe election ot Lincoln and Hamlin.
Mr. Maynard, ot Tenu., >aid that the gen
tleman from Alary land wa- misinformed in
relation to Mr. Fillmore.
Mr. Florence asked if Mr. Fillmore's Home
organ bad not hoisted tbe flag of Lincoln aud
Hamlin.
Mr. Mayaard responded that if the lJnffalo
Commercial Advertiser was meant, it was no
longer the organ of Mr. Fillmore. He under
stood, bowever. its editor had a contract for
printing Post-Ofrice Hlanks for the Adminis
tration. <I.aup;liter.) ,
Mr. Florence, said that the contract had been
taken from tbe hands of the Administration
by a resolution of the House.
Mr. Stewart was glad to bear that Mr. Fill
more bad not fallen. He respected an oppo
nent who declared his sentiments openly. He
hopeil that if the conservative men could not
voie the democratic ticket, tbey would vote for
Beil and Everett.
Mr. Morrill, of Yt., took the floor, bnt yield
ed to the point of order made by Mr. Craige,
ot N. C, that no quorum was presrnt.
Tb* Committee then rose and at s,'i -.'clock

A* Akctic Boat Expedition.—A new Arc
tic Expedition sailed from New Loudon, Con
necticut, on Tuesday last, on board of the
bask George Henry. The expedition is not
very numerous, for it consists only of Mr. B.
F. Hull, ot Cincinnati, and his Esquimaux

The "Wakdereb" Rescuers'.— In •Savan
nah. Ga., Thursday. L. Lamar. Carey W.
Styles, J Mott Middleton aud William Hone,
who had previously plead guilty to an indict
ment charging them with the rescue of J.
Egbert Farnham, of the yacht Wauderer,
from the jail of Chatham county, were called
up to receive their sentence. The judgment of
the Court, as pronounced by Mr. Justice
Wayne, was that each of the parties shonld
pay a due of two hundred and fifty dollar*
and costs of prosecution, and be imprisoned
for the space of thirty days. The aentence wm
received with due respect, and with a manifest
disposition to bow to the supremacy of th*
law. The Court admitted Capt. Farnham to
bail in tbe sum of bo.UOO, and Capt. Nich. A.
Brown in the sum of $1,000, to appear at the
next term to stand their trial on the charge of
being engaged in lauding African* from tbe
yacht Wanderer.
Ekokkol'h Stock ov Pnooucs at Liver
pool.— At a late meeting of tbe Liverpool
Mersey Docks and Harbor Board, tbe fact of
theeuormons stock of produce in Liverpool
was alluded to. Mr. r'.irwood drew attention
to the insufficient warehouse accommodation
for tbe cotiou which was at present in the
l»ort, and which was expected to arrive, aud
asked it some measures could not be takes to
render tbe transit sheds of use for stoiage in
such an emergency. The chairman (Mr.
Turner) replied that the stock of a|t descrip
tion* of produce at present iv tbe port was
enormous and unusual; in fact, beyond all
precedent. Tbe cotton al.ne amounted to a
million bales. Mr. Forwood said that the
want of warehouse room was seriously in
conveniencing the trade, tbe price charged for
warehousing cotton being a* high asld.,lj*d.
and per bale per week.
Cattle Disease is Ekhland.—lt is only a

Desperate Negro — Slabbing a White Man —
Long Jiace ami t'aptur--.— Yesterday morning,
a iegr i slave named Taylor Brown, bired to
Mr. J. Powers, entered ihe clothing store of
Harris Fischer, southeast corner of Main and
•.Oth atreets, and under the pretence of wishing
10 purchase apparel, seized upon a coat and
pair ot pants, valued at $7.51), and mace off.
Fischer immediately caught at tbe ruffian, but
K-arcely bad he laid hands upon him, when
tie was stabbed in one of bis hands and arm*,
in three place*. Tbe uegro then started off at
the top of bis speed, holding on to tbe stolen
goods, aud when the cry was raised of " stop
thief," pnrsnit was made and persons at
tempted to stop the fugitive, be cutting aud
slashing at tbem as be ran. Very soon an
army of persons weie in pursuit of tbe des
perado, some striking al him with sticks, oth-'
era throwing stones and bricks, and others
endeavoring to trip bim, but lie continued his
flight until be reached the Dock, when be
dropped bis bundle and took to the water-
After floundering about for a time, be was
taken into a boat, but again jumped overb .ard,
and not until he was nearly drowned wonld
be allow himself to be captured. During tbe
flight, one gentleman came so nigh being »tab
bed, that he had to strike tbe ruffian a severe
blow in tbe face with bis umbrella, to save
himself. The prisoner will be examined be
fore tbe Mayor this morning, and remanded
to the next term of the Hustings Court for
trial..
Accidentally Killed.— Last Friday evening a
small negro boy named De vid, slave to Mrs.
Mary Alexander, of Hanover county, and
hired to Mr. John D. Uuarles, was run over
by a cart and instantly killed. David was em
ployed at the brick-yard to drive the boras* in
tbe mortar bed. Alter completing his own
work, he went voluntarily luto the pit from
which clay was being hauled to the mortar
bed, and catching hold of the bridle ot oneof
tbe mules drawing a cart, attempted to lead it
out. It is suppos-ed by the baud* in the yard
that the little fellow accidentally fell when
the mule started, and being naabie to get out
of the way, the wheel of the loaded vehicle
passed directly over bit body,crushing him so
dreadfully that he died in a few minute*
thereafter. |
Not Heard.— Churles Gaylird. one of the
parties charged with assaulting and stabbing
William Criblin, on ibe night of the'Joib nit.,
was before the Kecouler last Saturday for
trial; but owing to the critical condition of tbe
wounded man, the investigation was post
poned until Friday next. Two other men.
charged with being engaged in the same crime,
and one of whom used the knife., are yet at
large, and may probably escape justice. One
or both of tbem were in the neighborhood of
tbe city last Saturday. If a full description
of their personal appearance were published
in the newspapers, tbey might yet be detected.
Critical Condition.— Thomas Dockery, tbe
man who was so dreadfully cot to pieces iv
SereamersviUe last Thursday night, by Law
rence McCormtck, was in a dangerous condi
tion yesterday morning. McCormick is yet at
targe, and the officers of Henrico, in which
county the offence was committed, seem to be
making very Utile efforts to arrest him.—
Mrs. McCormick, who is said to have com
menced the difficulty by iweaultingaud beating
Uockery with a stick, has been arrested to an
swer as a party to tbe crime.
Opening the Canvass.-Oa Saturday night
last a large crowd of persons assembled on
tbe Capitol Square, and were addressed from
the monument by Capt. Martin Meredith
Lipscomb, one of the candidates for Judge of
the Hustings Court, who "defined bia position"
to the satisfaction of his bearers. If elected,
he has promised to associate with bim two
able lawyers,and think* he will give entire
satisfaction in all hi* decisions.

of Henrico county, was committed by tbe Re
corder last Saturday, in default of bail for bis
good behavior, on conviction of bei.ig uoiey
and disorderly, and using vulgar language in
tbo street to J. Brantwbite. Charles first
