Mutiny.—-We learn from Capt. Sawyer, of tho
schr. Angelina, from Brassuria, arrived day before
yesterday, that a mutiny occurred ou board tlio
schr. Topaz, Captain Rider, of Bangor, Maiue,
while lately an her passago from Matlamoras to
Galvestop, iu which Captain Rider and his mate
were kiliid. There wore on board tho schooner
one hundred and thirty troops designed for the
An ahttac. On the arrival of the Topaz at Gal
veston, the soldiers represented to Col; llradburn,
the commauder at this garrison, (hat these mur
derous acts were committed by tho crew; while
the crew on tho other hand, charged the perpe
(ration upon the soldiers themselves.
It was reported that Col Bradburn believed the
assertions of tho soldiers entitled to credit, put
the crow, four in number, in irons, aud stated his
determination to hang them, and to confiscate the
yesssel. There was on board tho Topaz, at the
time of the outrage, a boy, aud black.than wbo
served as cook, whom the soldiers did not impli
cate in the crime. Those individuals concurred
in declaring, iu conversation with gentlemen at
the garrison, that the soldiers and not the crew,
were, the guilty parties.
At Ssu Piiillippe, Austin’s settlement, distant
about eighty* mites from Galveston, this affair bad
created great excitement; a general meeting of
tho iu!ial>jtams of thq colony was called, aud it
was the intention of Colonel Austin, to place
himself at tho head oF a large body of armed m.en,
and march to tho garrison to demand for tho crew
the rights'of au impartial trial. The question as
to which party was criminal, is iuvolved in great
mystery. The soldiers stated that on the' uight
of tho murder, tho weather being wet the mate
requested them to go below secured the hatches
Over them, and then went into the cabin aud cut
tho throat of the Cnpt. The commander of the
troops, sleeping also in tbe cabiu, was aroused,
and in a short struggle .with tha mate, received a
deep cut in the face. The cries of their command-
oral irmed the soldiers, who bursted through the
hulk head, ns tho mate flod upon tho deck. Ho
was fuliotved, ran up the rigging to tbe masthead,
received several shuts in the body and feli iuto
the sea. There were $5000 on hoard the Topaz,
intended fnr payment of troops at Galvest. u, the
desire to possess which according to tha story of
the soldiers, instigated tho mate to tbo murder,
and it was said ho intended to scuttle tho vessel,
leaving all on board to perish but himself and
that the Habersham mines are iuin)i.ns»ly-srniua-
Ide,—aud lie doubts not that the mines of the
Cherokee country w.il be found, on farther.ex

that iu four years the entire of that debt will be
paid oil", although not redeemable before 1845,

At the time Captain Sawyer left the month of

The weather aud the depth of tbe *uow for a
few days past have been strong temptations to
many of our citizeus to enjoy the sport of runuiug
down prairie wolves. The sportsman mounts his
horse, and with a good “hickory" club, pursues
tho animal into the prairies, where he generally
overtakes and despatches him. lu fact, many of
our.country sportsmen have exhibited a very
“wolfish disposition" on the occasion, and the de
struction of wolves, in consequence, has been very
great—Sangamo, (III.) Journal. •
Catharine Lane burnt!—Not the street, good
reader, but the building*. About half-past three
o’clock this morning, a fire broke out in oue of
the densely inhabited bouses in Catliarino Lane,
a few doors east of Broadway. • •
■ In tho course of an hour, nearly tvify building
on both sides of the lane," from Broadway to Elm
street, except a low stables, was destroyed. Per
haps the whole number does not exceed eight;
but they were the raostimportant buildings in the
lane, generally of three stories, nmDpopnlatcd
from the garret to. the collar, both - inclusive.
Tho whole number of families it wonld be clilfi-
cuit to state. Oi individuals tho number might
be 100 or upwards, mostly colored.—N. V. Jour,

The following hit is from the Carolina Gazette:
u It is recommenced to close tiie markets on tho
sabbath, and a petition to this end is said to beiu
preparation. Would it not be mtitc as well, at the
same time, to interdict the use ofcrirriages and hor
ses ou that day—which, in dusty weather, greatly
incommode the people, the majority of wholn are
compelled to walk to tho churches?" -
.Consequence of giving advice.—'The friendship
of two-young ladies; though apparently found
ed upon the rock of eternal attachment I winiii-
ated in the following manner:—M v dean 11 Jane,
I do not think your figure suited for danciiig and
as a sincere friend I advice you to refrain from
it in future. The other, naturally affected by
such unsolicited caudor, replied, “I feel very
much obliged to you, my dear, for your advice;
this proof of your friendship demnndssoino return,
I would iis sincerely recommend you to relinquish
yonrsinging, a* some of your upper notes actually
resemble tho squalling of the feline race." The
result of this preeipitaucy was that the aflivee of
neither was tollowedt the one continued to sing
aud the other to dance, but they never after met
as friends.
