Shoi tiy.utter midnight the guards at the ferry aild along the river, were surprised and disatmed by this party. Such lighters 86 were at hand were imme diately seized, and with them the partp crossed the militaiy force at Clarksville, about one hundred Siroug, mostly composed of negroes, and entered Bagdad.

The warehouses were gutted aud their contents crossed over to the American side of the river. The Imperial gunboat Antonio was called upon to surrender, and she answered with a broadside, which tor a time scattered the flilibusters. A second demand for the surrender of the gunboat was subsequently made, which was answered iu a similar manner. The Antonio, at the time, was tn route up the river. An Austrian Sergeant on board of her wa9 killed. At daylight the French men-of-war in the harbor opened lire on the filibusters, com pelling them to take letuge iu the upper part of the town. Tne last accounts stated that the filibus ters still held the town. The deaths reported on each side are thirty-one. It is stated that the filibusters are com manded by General Reed.

THE ADAMS EXPRESS RORBEUY. At least five of the persons supposed to have been concerned in the recent heavy robbery of the Adams Express safes, on the New Haven Railroad, have been arrested and tbe evidence sgainst some of them, at least, appears to be pretty strong, portions of the stolen property being found iu their pos session. Two men, named Lockwood, and two others, pamed Clark and Tristram, and John B. Birmore were arrested. In Bar- more’s house were found portions of the ef fects of the robbery, consisting of gold coin, bonds and Treasury notes, to the total value of over $86,000; and on the Lockwoods were also, it is said, found several articles which hnd been extracted from the safes.

A Union Man.’’ The finger must have been very recently cut close trom the band of a negro or mu latto. FROM SOUTH AMERICA.

I am reliably informed that the Hon. Ben. Hill is a candidate for U. S. Senator. It was reported before the Legislature took their recess, that this distinguished gentle man had defined to be a candidaie. Thus we have Joshua Hill, A. H. Stephens, Ben. Hill, L. J.

The intelligence from the-West India is land of Guadaloupe is of a start ling and. omi nous character. Cholera is still devastating the island, and it is said that at the last ac counts the daily average of deaths, in a population of ten thousand people, was as high as one hundred and thirty-one. At one place, Point-a-Pitre, one hundred and forty- nine persons died between the 19th aud 22d of December. The whole population of the island must soon be swept away if this rate of mortality should continue. Stringent precau tions were being taken to prevent the spared of the pestilence to the other West India is lands, and thus far with success. Cholera was introduced in Guadaloupe by a vessel from Marseilles, and the pilot of the ship is in custody for his gross neglect in not giving warning to the authorities that the disease was on board. The bill abolishing the old con stitution of Jamaica, and vesting all legislative power in the hands ot nominees.of the Euglish crown, passed the Colonial Parliament with closed doors some lime ago; but it requires the sanction of the home government to become a law. One ot the Kingston papers, in noticing lately the outcry with which the wholesale executions in the island hud been received in Europe, reaffirms that the negro plot was a stern and horrible reality, and was only prevented from developing itseli by the rapid move ments of the troops.. The ex-EmfSeror Soulouque, of Hayti, with his family aud suite, had arrived at tlve Island of Curacoa, where he proposes to fix his permanent residence, having been ban ished from his place of exile in Jamaica.
