COLUMBUS; Saturday Morning, May 31,1830. LARUEIT CITY CIRCULATION. Fire in Columbus. We were aroused about il o'clock Thursday night by the cry of tire aud riuging of bells.— It was on the premises of Mr. John Johnson, on the corner of Troup and S . Clair streets. — His cook house was entirely consumed and the dwelling saved by the early and active exer tions of the oitizeus and firemen. Fire in Clayton. We learn from the Banner, that the dwell- i ing, kitchen and smokehouse of Mr. Benjamin j F. Petty, in Clayton, Alabama, were consumed by fire on tho night of the 28th iust. The furniture was s .ved in a damaged condition. We understand there was no insurance on the property. —- A destructive fire occurred at Charlotte, N. C., last Tuesday, in which the American Ho tel and other valuable buildings were destroy ed. The loss is said to be heavy. The schooner British Queen, arrived at Sa vanuah on Tuesday, from Nasau, with a con signment of large Watermelons. W. G. Kendall Acquitted. The trial of W. G. Kendall, late Post Mas ter at New Orleans, upon charges of abstract ing money from letters in the post office, was brought to a close last Saturday, and resulted in his acquittal. The Jury were on the case only twenty-five minutes. „ Editorial Fight. A rencontre took place at Bayou Sara, La., last Monday, between Marks, editor of the Ledger, and Robertson, editor of the Chroni cle, which resulted in the death of the latter. Gladden and Stewart, were convicted at the late term of the Superior Court of Cass coun ty, and sentenced to the Penitentiary—-one for three aud the other for four years. A meeting of the citizens of Gilmer county was held at Elijay on the loth inst., to take into consideration the propriety of building a Rail lload from the Copper Mines in the vicin ity of Ducktown to some point on the State Road. TheCassville Standard thinks it would be a profitable investment of capital. James M. Brown, residing six miles from Campbellton, Fa., was killed by a man named Amos Snell, on the 19th inSt. The Mountain Road. The Dalton Times learns from the Superin tendent, Mr. L. IV. Earnest, that the work on the road across the ChattoogataMountain has been commenced and over 500 feet, of the most difficult part, already completed. It is esti mated that the road can be finished in time to receive the present wheat crop from beyond the mountain. Success to the enterprise. The Shreveport (La.) Gazette states that Dr. Culberson, of Georgia, of some experience in Rail Road building, has purchased from J. M. Ford & Cos. their contract for building the Rail Road from Shreveport to the Texas line. He gave Ford & Cos. a profit of $20,000 on their contract. New Style of Cane. The manufacturers of Walking Canes in Massachusetts, are said to begetting up anew style to be called the “ Sumner Cane.” Crops in Decatur County. The Buiubridge Argus of the 27th instant, says Mr. Jesse F. Reynolds, whose plantation Les a few miles west of this place, showed us, on yesterday, a cotton stalk knee high in length, and containing six forms, but wh ch, he says, is not a fair sample of his crop. He states that a week ago he counted as many as fifteen forms on one stalk, and that he has ten acres fully as far advanced. He has fifty acres of corn that will average waist high, and a hundred and twenty acres that will nearly average it From Kansas—Destruction of Lawrence Confirmed. An extra from the office of the Lexingfou (Mo.) Express, was received at St. Louis on the 2bth instant, confirming the report of the e=truction of Lawrence on the 23d. The ac count published by the Express states that after the Marshal had arrested all the persons he had writs for, he turned the posse over to Sueriff Jones, whose attempt to make arrests was resisted by the people, who fired on his i men. Sheriff Jones then cannonaded and set fire i to the hotel and the office of the Herald of ! Freedom, destroying both. When the messen- I ger left the artillery was still firing, aud the fire spreading to other portions of the town, but up to the time of his departure but few lives had been lost. This is reported as the testimony of Hutchinson and Ratscliffe, free j State men. The Express is a pro-slavery pa per. ‘ We published a few days ago the notice of 1 an affray in Cahawba, Alabama, which result- j ed in the death of John R. and John A. Bell. | The following particulars of the cause of the j difficulty, we copy from the Selma Sentinel : I Some few weeks ago the dwelling house of j Dr. Troy was destroyed by fire, and about the j same time efforts were n ade to fire Judge j Bird’s dwelling. No clue could then be had as I to who the incendiary was. Dr Troy, becom- [ ing satisfied that John A. Bell had been instru mental in burning bis dwelling, instituted a i suit before the Circuit Court for damages 1 against John A. Bell. John A. Bell becoming > exasperated at the institution of the suit, j went to the doctor’s office on Friday evening and commenced an assault upon Doctor Troy { with a stick and a drawn pistol. About the same time Charles A. Bell ran up, and com menced firing a pistol. Dr. Hunter, Judge l Bird and John R. Bell, all coming up about the same time, a general firing of pistols and a shot gun commenced. Judge Bird shooting John A. Bell with a pistol, while Dr. Hunter shot John R. Bell, both of whom died almost instantly. Dr. Tbomas Hunter and Judge W. E. Bird, j were bound over in a bond of $2,500 each, i and Charles A. Bell, in a bond of $5,000, for I their appearance at the next term of the Cir- ! cuit Court. From Havana. The Havana correspondent of the Charles ton Courier, of 2nd May says: “ The Spanish Government has determined to send a imvnl I force to Vera Cruz, to demand indemnity of the Mexican Government for the Spanish nn r : chants who suffered considerably during the late revolution. When Santa Anna was in power, he made a treaty with Spain, by whvli the Mexican nation obligated itself to pay j quite a large sum of money to certain Spanish ! houses, that were ruined during the war of in dependence. General Oomolifort now refuses | to acknowledge the validity of this treaty, and j has notified the Spanish Government that he j will not pay. This refusal has prompted the Spaniards to send there a large naval force, under tho command of Brigadier I’inzon. The squadron will consist of two frigates, three steamers and four brigs.” Gon. Concha has sent Col. Flores to Madrid to ask for instructions about the conduct to be | observed with the filibusters in South Ameri ca. It scorns that ho is anxious to take an active part in the settlement of the ease. He has sent an agent to Costa Rica. He left in the last steamer via Aspinwall. It is generally believed that Spain has offered tho Costa Ri cans money and arms. Tho Collision of the Keystone State. We made mention yesterday of the accident which happened to this Steamer. We copy following particulars of the accident, from a Norfolk paper: The fine steamer “ Keystone State,” from Savannah for New York, put into the port of Norfolk on Monday about twelve o’clock, ller bows were very much injured, her cutwater having been carried away and plunking ripped off down to the water's edge, by a collision with the barque Cavalier, from Baltimore, bound to Rio Janeiro. The accident occurred on Monday morning last about fifteen minutes past 1 o'clock. Two mates and three seamen of the barque got on board the steamer, but the fate of the barque is Unknown, as tho Keystone “State made water so fast, that not withstanding all the pumps were immediately put to work, the water had covered, and was fast gaining upon the flour of the fire room, when Capt. Hardio deemed it necessarry for the safety of the ship and the lives of those on board, to head for the land. Until the im minent peril of his ship became so apparent, Capt. llardie laid by the barque, and made every effort to save those on board. The ship had 42 cabin and 14 steerage passengers. They held a meeting in Norfolk Monday, and exon erated the Captain and his offices from all blame. The accident is attributed to the failure of the barque to have a “ cap-light” set. It oc curred off the cape of Virginia about 30 mi.es from Norfolk. The Cavalier was commanded by Captain James Whyte, of Norfolk, whose safe arrival at Baltimore after a tempestuous voyage from Rio Janeiro, of some thirty days or more, was noticed in the Express of the 2d inst. He has many very near and dear relatives aud friends now residing in our midst, who will of course be in the most painful suspense, until they hear further from the barque. We trust that her injuries are not as serious as suppos ed, and that we shall soon hear of the safety of all on board. Action of the Massachusetts Legislature in Regard to the Attack ou Mr. Sumner. Boston, May 26. Tho Senate to-day passed the following re solves by a unanimous vote : Resolved, by the Senate and House of Rep resentatives of the Commonwealth of Massa chusetts, That we have received with deep concern information of the recent violent as sault, committed in the Senate Chamber at Washington upon the person of the Hon. Chas. Sumner, oneof our representatives inCongress, by PrestonS. Brooks, a member of the House of Representatives from :-outh Car lina—an assault which no provocation could justify— brutal aud cowardly in itself—a gross breach of parliamentary privilege—a ruthless attack upon the liberty of speech—an outrage of the decencies of civilized life, and an indignity to the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Resolved, That the Legislature of Massa c usetts, in the name of the free and enligh tened people, demands for her Representatives in the National Legislature entire freedom of speech, and will uphold them in the proper exercise of the etsential lights of American citizens. Resolved, That we approve of Mr. Sumner’s earnest and fearless declaration of free princi ples and his manly defense of human rights and free territory. Resolved, That the Legislature of .Massa chusetts is imperatively called by the plainest dictates of duty, from a decent regard of the rights ot her citizens, and respect for her char acter as a sovereign State, to demand, and the Legislature of -Massachusetts hereby does de mand of the national Congress, a prompt and strict investigation into the recent assault upon Mr. Sumner, and the expulsion by the House ot Mr. Brooks, of South Carolina, aud any other members concerned with him in the as sault. Resolved, That Ilis Excellency thcGovernor be requested to transmit a copy of the forego ing resolves to the President of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives, | from this Commonwealth in tho Congress of the United States. After the adoption of tho foregoing rcsolu i tions, they were transmitted to the House for | the action of that body upon them. In the House the resolutions excited an ani ! mat and debate, but, after a slight amendment j j to the third, they were adopted by 187 against | 23. Ladies vs. Bad Spirits. The Cberaw (S. C.) Gazette says the ladies “ of Chesterfield village, on Saturday evening, the 10th instant, incited thereto by the delete- ! rious effects produced upon sundry persons 1 t.y imbibing an exhilirating fluid sometimes | called bald face, waited upon the selter there of iu a body, and emphatically informed him that he must and should cease to deal out the : liquid fire. They generously offered to pay him for his stock, that they might legally empty it on the ground. He preferred to re move from the village, which they consented to, provided he did so by last night, or they would wait upon him again.” For Kansas. We are informed that Mr. James R. Moore, of this place, at tho head of a company of about fifteen persons from this county, will leave here on Saturday (May 31st) next for the Ter ritory of Kansas, for the purpose, as we un derstand, of making it their permanent resi dence. However much we may regret to part with our friends we “glory in their spunk,” and wish them “God speed” in their journey, i aud trust the/ will nobly represent Troup county iu the coding contest in Kansas.— La- Grange Reporter. *’ ‘i'LLEGRAFHIC ITEMS. Oongresaiomtl, iio. Washin>:ion, May 28.—1 u the United States Senate, to-day, the committed te investigate the assault upon Mr. Sumner report and that, in their opinion, the Senate lmd no further jurisdiction then to complain te Iho House. The House passed u bill granting 1,000,000 am sos land to Louisiana. Mr. Sumner is 1 considered to be in a critical situation. The Enlistment Difficulty. \V .oin mitov, May 28.—Mr. Crumpton aud . the Consuls were dismissed to day. A mes sage will be sout to Congress to-morrow ex plaining the grounds of Mr. Crumpton's dis- I missal, and another in relation to Central American uflairs, but more particularly as to Great Britain's proposition to arbitrate. It is . understood that the Executive is willing to arbitrate any question, political or geograph ical. arising under the treaty, but declines the construction generally of the terms of urbi -1 tration. Later from Kansas. St. Lotts, May 27.—Letters from Kansas state that stores and dwellings iu Lawrence were indiscriminately broken open and rob bed at the time of the attack ou tho 23d j instant, and that two hundred Free State men | were collected at Lawrence. The garrison at Franklin was probably attacked by the Free | State men on the night of the 22d iust. It ! was stated that Gov. Shannon was about to order 100 United States troops to bo stationed at Oswattomie, 100 at Lawrence, and 100 at Topeka. Judge Cato, of the District Court at Oswattomie, was prevented from holding tho court by threats of violence from the Free State men. A passenger by the Morning Star informed the Democrat of this city that Slier ill’ Jones intended to proceed immediately to Topeka to destroy tho town. Four additional murders had occurred. Chicago, May 28.—The Westport Times of the 23d instant says that the members of the Investigation Committee were still at Leaven worth. Messrs. Conway and Schuyler were liberated on the 20th instant, but Messrs. Brown and Robinson were still prisoners. Go vernor Shannon had been requested by the citizens to interfere to ( prevcnt the outrage, but had declined interference. The mob had shot an Indian near Lawrence in mere wantonucss. The Delawares threaten revenge. Later from Salt Lake. Sr. Louis, May 27.—Advices from Salt Lake dated the 2(ith .March, state that the Convention was in session and that the Com mittee had unanimously reported a Constitu tion for the State of Deserot. Vermont Politics. New ionic, May 28.—The Americans of Vermont have nominated Rowland Fletcher as their candidate lor Governor, and (as was to be expected) have resolved to unite with the Republicans in the Presidential and Congress ional election. New York Markets. New ionic. May 28.—Cotton is drooping and 12000 bales changed hands. Middling Orleans was quoted at 10J, Middling Uplands at 10-f, and Fair Uplands at 11J cents per lb. Fiour was unsettled at from §6.31 a 6 32 per bbl. for Ohio. Wheat declined, and White was worth §1.76 per bushel. Corn was quoted at 69) cents per bushel, Spirits of Turpen tine, Bice and Rosin were firm. Freights were drooping. Northern Journals of the Right Stamp. Whatever may be said (says the Savannah Republican) of Boston fanaticism—and much can be justly said—she has two newspapers of which any city in the Union might be proud. They are opposite as the poles in politics, yet no earthly temptation couldinduce either toan act of violence to the constitution, a sentiment of disloyalty to the Union, or a course of injus tice to a foe, at least such has been their past history. Weallude to the Courier and the Post, the former a thorough going Webster Whig journal, and the latter equally zealous as an advocate of Democratic men and measures.— While the entire northern press, of both par ties, with hardly an exception, has shrunk from an nonest- expression of opinion in oppo sition to the late insulting and disgraceful speech of Senator Sumner, the Courier, pub lished at his own home, and in the very hot bed of Abolition, lias Ibe independence and man liness to speak ot that production in the man ner it deserves. In its issue of the 23d inst., it says: “But vve have a word to say about the man ner in which this Kansas debate has been car ried on iu the Senate. Members have shifted the time of I he pronouncement of their speech es as it has suited their convenience. The speech of Mr. Sumner was exceedingly insult ing towards some gentlemen who sit with him upon the Senate floor. It was not in conso nance with the sort of arguments which people expect to hear from United States Senators upon a grave question. They do not want flowery adjectives or far-fetched allusions to, or illustrations Irotn Greece and Rome, to give them an opinion as to how they shall act with regard to a practical question which is notv before them. When Mr. Sumner com pares Senator Butler, of South Carolina, and Senator Douglas, of Illinois, to Don Quixotte and Sancho Panza, assimilating one to the character of a crazy man and the other to that of a fool, he takes a ground which Massachu setts, in her dignity and her ability, never pre sented before. In the great debate between Webster and llayne, in which Massachusetts [ came out best, beyond all comparison, no such allusions were made. The Senator of Massa chusetts of that day descended to no low black guardism. In the strength of his faith and in the force of his ability, he presented Massa chusetts before the Senate of the United States in such a manner that men bowed down arid j worshipped her. “There,” said he, “is Bos ton and Concord, and Lexington and Bunker Hill.” “I employ no scavengers,” said he again, in answer to the taunts of the Senator from South Carolina, who had produced against him the rnkings aud scrapings of all which political venom could bring out from tho cess pool of party politics. Mr. Webster came out of that controversy with South Carolina with the admiration of every man iu tho country. The time has changed—a different mail takes bis place, with only tho memory of an insult ing speech and a broken head.” Bigamy Made Easy in Massachusetts. Allen G. Drody, Jr. a middle aged English man, was indicted on a charge of bigamy. Asa plea to the indictment, lie stated that lie married his first wife in 1841. somewhere on the Cape, and that a short time since his wife and himself agreed to a separation, and lie published tho fact in the papers. He supposed that this was sufficient to ena ble him to get married again, which he did, with the knowledge of his first wife, who lived in the immediate neighborhood, aud who man ifested no opposition thereto. The second [ wife, however, or her friends, were ignoront of this fact, ami when it came to their know ledge they made a complaint. Upon a review j of all the facts, and with the assent of the ) friends of the second wife, Drody was let oil’ I with a fine of SSO and costs. —Bouton Courier. ‘ The Empress, tho iTompotentiartes and j tho Imperial liaL'y. A I’aris letter says: Since the “ehiirohing” i the limpness Eugenie has opened her doors to ‘ the reception f various guests, among which may he numbered Count Grlotf mid the Grand \ izior Ault IV-liu on Saturday, besides tho members el’ the various diplomatic bodies, with their ladies. One cannot imagine a more graceful shrine whereon the representatives of two nations, such as Russia and Turkey, so lately engaged iu tierce ami mortal combat, should depose their native garlands than the I convalescent chamber of the gentlest and most beautiful of her sex. The touching manner I in which the Empress received tho two intpor j taut personages above mentioned, is said to j have visibly moved them both. “1 hope,” she said to Count Orloff, with tears in her eyes, ; “that the birth of my boy is a pledge that all j strife is forever gone from among us.” “May i Heaven grant your Majesty’s prayer,” was the Count’s reply, and extending his hand to Aali l’aslia, who grasped it warmly, “your Majesty sees.” lie added, smilingly, “that we have but one thought-—that of pcaco and good will.” Constitutionally, the Empress has rallied wonderfully after the sufferings of heraccouoh incut, but mechanically, her frame will re quire weeks, if not months, before it is re established. She is totally unable to walk as yet, and any thing like imprudent haste in at tempting to do so, would probably be attended with serious consequences. Her spirits are excellent, her appetite good, and the beautiful woman bears an air of Contentment in her whole aspect such as sufficiently indicates that inner joy of heart which, until this completion of her domestic happiness, it was evident she lacked. To-day her Majesty enters her thir tieth year. As for the Emperor, never since bis accession to power, have bis spirits exhib ited anything like their present buoyancy. He pays periodical visits to the nursery, his laugh rings merrily through the chamber as he re ceives satisfactory answers to his paternal in quiries, and the English nurse declares that she feels as much at home with his Majesty as with any ordinary respectable pater J'amtlias. Accidents, however, will happen in tho best regulated families, even under imperial aus pices. On Friday—that ill-omened day so detestable to mariners—the Emperor was giv ing a lusty swing to the cradle, which, after the French fashion, moves on a swivel with a nut, when somehow or other, the nut having been negligently screwed, the cradle became loose, and separating from its eagle support, came down bodily, netting, pillows, cushions and all, in one terrible collapse, like a para-, chute. The young Prince Imperial, in a bliss ful slumber, awoke to find himself in the rude shock of a revolution. The Emperor bursting with laughter, the nurses, both French aud English, uttering sceams according to their tongues; Madame Bruat, the dignified presi dent and guardian of the nursery, in a cold sweat, while the baby, furious at such sum mary invasion of bis sacred privacy, roared out most lustily, sccaming with mingled ter ror and rage. Altogether, the scene, as de scribed to me by an eye witness, must have been a graphic representation of family life in high places, and greatly instructive to all present. May all the accidents of the young Prince’s life be ns easily remedied as this! but so trifling a mishap may serve to remind that flattering crowd, which from noon till dewy eve does nothing but pull’ from its lungs the breath of incense, that something more than this is needed to keep screws tight and king’s sons in their places.

Sec. 5. (Repeals conflicting laws.) Approved Feb. 14, 1856. Latest Indian News. By the arrival of Mr. A. N. Pacetty, Ex press-man, from Tampa, yesterday evening, we learn that a train carrying provisions to tho State A olunteers, on Pease Creek, was attack ed by ten or fifteen Indians, on Saturday Inst, within twelve miles of Tampa, at a place known ns Simmon’s Hammock. The party had just halted at a branch to drink, and as some of them were dismounting a little lioy who was riding a horse attached to one of the wagons, saw an Indian behind a tree, and lie cried out, “ Father there’s an Indian ! ” point ing to the spot where he saw him. No sooner had the boy spoke than tho Indians fired, and he fell from the horse dead. The father caught up the dead body of his son and placed it in a wagon, when another volley was fired by the Indians, and lie with another man were killed. At tho first fire, a negro belonging to the train started for an encampment where a de- taeliment Iron, Capt ui-re stullulled, only two iml,, s ,■ men only lmw remained, and I wounded in the hip. fhev r... t mi! °f and tied, ‘fhe Indians, awai-,. taken by the negro, also tied, leuvi ?,,' 1 ”' 1 wagon, ,xc., unhurt. “•‘MI Tho persons killed wero Ji, ~ Starling and his sou.
