injuries, but terrible as the occurrence has been,
there is cause to be thankful that no life was lost.

The collision is pronouticed in a card of the

passengers ofthe Gov. Dudley to have been the

result of “the grossest careless and neglect of
duty,” on the part of the oflicer in command of

boat at the time.

 

THE Er.EcTIotvs which take place this month,
‘will enable us to judge with some degree of pro-
bability. which way the current sets. If our
prophesy is worth any thing, we will give it as
tour opinion,4that Loco-Focoisrn will reeeivesuch
a check as will compel the most sanguine ofthe
party to acknowledge, that thtir days.are niim-
bered. North Carolina, Alabama, Intliana, Illi-
tiois, Kentucky and Missouri, will speak in terms
that will tell satlly on the destiny of Martin
Van Buren, and those who are struggling with
him to perpetuate their power. The people

liave endured the conseqtiences of misrule, till
they have felt that their ‘snlferitigs is intolera-
ble,’ and they have determined to eject tliose
who have abused their trust and mockctl their
complaints.

Congress at its last session. it would seem (lid

not consummate the wrongs of the New Jersey
delegation by excluding them from their seats,
‘but after consuming time and bearing considera-
isle expense in collecting testimony; refused not
only to hear that testimony, but to grant them
the usual compensation in such cases--while
Charles J. Ingersoll of Philadelphia, who con-
tested Mr. Naylor's seat, without the sliatiow of
justice, as was shown by the vote in the case,
received his full pay, together-with the fees of
his witnesses. from that worthy representative
of Loco-Focoism, the Clerk of the House, with-
out order or warrant. Such outrages, perpe-
trated under the. sacred name of Dciizocracy, are
enough to call back those noble spirits from their
wakeless sluinbcrs, to light over again the bat-
tles of Democratic liberty, which was once es-
tablished by their toil and blood.

 

ANOTHER SECESSION, from this waning Ad-
ministration, is Dr. Davis of South Carolina, a
member of that Convention which will iicconie
memorable in the history of the fall of Loco-
Focoism—tltat tnot at Baltimore antl noniinatetl
Martin Van Buren, anti refused to nominate R.
M. Johnson. Dr. Davis has been for ten years
a member of the South Carolina Legisla ure,
and a confidential friend of Gen. Jackson. This
is considered no ortlinary accession.

Our readers will rccollcct that the fact of a
rcncontre in the Rotunda of the Capital, on Sat-
urday evening previous to the atljotirnnltint, was
mentioned iti our paper at tlictinic. Names nor
circumstances have never transpired to the pub-
lic till recently. and now only in a way to brush

LOUISIANA.

THIRD Dts'rrtic'r SECURE —-News has been
received in New Orleans, by way of Red River,
on which the third district lies, which places be-
yond doubt the election of Moore, VVhig. The
news is taken from the Red River Republican,
Loco Foca. The majority ofMoore is 3°. There
is some discrepency between the Red River
\Vhig and the Republican in reference to Union
parish, the Republicanfgiving'_VVinn,Loco, 101
While the \Vhig allows him but -11. Taking
the VVbig statement, Moore's majority would
be 93. \Vhatevet maybe the exactresult, says
the N. 0. Bee, ‘the election of Jlfoorc is certain.’

The Legislature, according to the Bulletin,
will give on joint ballot, a majority of six for
the VVliigs. A \Vhig U. S. Senator. two out
three membersof Congress. and a hcalt./zy nia-
jority for Harrison in the fall, are the fruits of
this victory.

For the Norzcozllu Gazelle.
The Ladies’ Fair on W'cdnesd:iy evening last,
was truly a creditable allltir. and passed oil‘ with
much pleasantness. The visitors were numer-
ous, and appeared to enjoy themselves much.
The display of useful and ornamental articles,
was large, and gave evidence of the good taste
and skill of the fair ladies of the Circle. The.
cliizgf rl‘azzzt*7‘c ofthe articlcs,combining both the
useful and ornamental, was a lamp stand. sur-
rounded with artificial flowors, worked with
worsted, which certainly reflects great credit for
its fair maker. The flowers were naturally
shaped and the colors beautifully blended. The
refreshment table, cream, etc. was alike. pleasing
to the eye and taste. The Post Ollice was also
a source of mticli amusement, and many were
the epistles received by the belles and beans,
containing good advice, declarations. acceptan-
ces and refusals, besides numerous letters from
distant friends. Alto,r_zr-titer. this fair exceeds
any of the previous ones ht-ld by the Circle,
which, by the way, is saying a great deal.

Pl'llLAI)EI’l.IlA IllU' ‘S.
On Mandy ‘.2 o’clock the week was com-
mciicc-.rl with more riots in l"\'engsin9‘toii, in-
stigatcd and carried on by the residents in
that district, who are determined a rail road
shall not be laid in Front Street. A strong
posse of mcn were sent by the Sheriff, to de-
fend the tvotkmen. and had their head quar-
ters in a tavern, the propety of lift’. Naglce,
the President ofthe Railroad Company. At
ten. the Kensington \votncn——sci'enmers they
must be—ordt+.red the workmen on the rail-
road to desist; and those workmt-n, having‘
had previous expcrit=.i'ice oftlio women. coin-
plicd. The rest oftheduy was spent in cori-
flcts between the Police antl the mob. A man
named .ltl=’.‘lt'S()ll having‘ been arrested, was
almost killed by the onset made by his friends
for his rescue. He. was retained by the po-
llCt.‘, and sent to llvlovzinietising‘ with his

over the matter. T ic parties concerned were-
Mcssrs. John Bell and Aaron V. llrown, niem~;
bers from Tennessee. Mr. Brown, it is Sllllctl,‘
was badly wounded, but with his own dirk.-
This language, from an article in the llaltitnore
Sun, leaves us to infer that the onset was made
with the dirk on both sides. Respectzible, cer-
tainly, for members of Congress to take their

seats, armed to the teeth like a Texian Bravado.

The Locos, of Hartford. have lost two oftheir
organs in the short space of one week, one by
death, the other by deserti_on. The deceased
was known as the ‘ News and Advertiser.’ So
we go.

 

An Englishman by the name of Rutlanti, a
barber by profession, was discovered in the Batik
of New Lontlon, between 3 atid -'1. o'clock on
\Vedticsduy morning. The light which he
carried with him betrayed bin: to a person who
secreted himself until Rolland came out and
entered his own shop, when assistance was call‘
ed and R secured. He had entered the Bank
by means of false keys, but did not sticceetl in
getting into the vault. A large quantiiy of false
keys were found secreted in a heap of ashes" on

 

his premises.

 

At the Loco Foco convention held in Concord
on the 9th tilt. while some of the orators of the
day. were descanting eloquently the beauties of
Van Burenism, a waggish Yankee pedlar stop-
ped his cartjust at a convenient distance from the
rostrum, which was in the open air, and swing-
ing his chapeau, commenced singing the song
.._.“ When this old hat was new,”—in fine style,
and in a few moments the speakers found them-
selves alone in their glory, exercising their ora-
[cfical powers upon empty benches and the dig-
nitaries who presided over them. \Vhen the
song was finised, the pedlar out with his wares,

for which he found-ti ready market.

 

A QUICK PAssAoE.—Tlie steamer Croton,
which has been temporarily supplying the place
of the Fairfield, now repairing a broken shaft,
made her passage on Tuesday of last week,
stopping at the usual landings, frotn New York,
to this place, in 3 hours and 10 minutes, being
the shortest passage ever made. The distance
is estimated to be about 50 miles, which, if we
deduct an hour for three stoppages, was accom-
plished in 2 hours and 10 minutes.

At the Ladies’ Fair recently held in Stam-
ford, the sum of $275 was collected, which goes
towards defraying the expenses of removing and
improving the Congregational Church of that

village.

 

The census of Stamford just taken. gives to
that town a population of 3516, by which it ap-
pears there has been a falling off since the pre-
vious census, of about 200. ’

Mrs. Lydia H. Sigourney, of Hartford. it is
stated in the papersof that city, is about taking

*scvercl'r hurt in the melee.
_i

scull fractured. Mrs. Fralcy, renowned in

'form:=r encounters, was also arrested, and

She too, is un-
dt-r nicdicul advice at Vloyamcnsing prison.-»
Sevcntccn or eighteen are in prison; sever-
al of the police are badly hurt, and several
of the riotcrs also. The dayliglit perform-
uncc was Cl_l{lt‘tl by tho rout of the police
and their fight from the ground, under a
shower of paving stones. The number of ri-
otcrs atctu.-ally t=ngag‘edwas 500. Of course
there were 5000 spectators, some of whom
CllCCl‘ULl the riotcrs.

At night an attack was made on the
“ head qttartcr.s" above referred to. The
house, a large three story building, was first
bztttercd with stones, and all the glass broken;
about a thousand lY'.(}l'l being engaged. Then
the house was fretl. Four or five CnQ'ines
forced their way tip, and commenced play-
ing. They were stoned from their work,
several of the firemen receiving‘ severe inju-
ry; and the building was then permitted to
burn, the depnrtnicnt giving their whole at-
tention to saving the houses contiguous, in
which they sticceedcd. The tavern was
burned coinplct-.-ly down, and nothing was
saved from it. Thus the tenant, Mr. Emery,
has had his property destroyed because the
house be occupied belongrd to the l’rcsidcnt
ofa railroad company. The public purse
must make the loss whole.

Two persons were arrested by the police, one
who was a leader of the mob, the other while he
was actually engaged in firing the building.—--
The first has been sentenced to 7 and the other
'0 10 years imprisonment at hard labor. This
we should tliiuk quite cooling to the order of the

riotcrs.
