Sr. Loci*, Mo., May ‘24, 1850. Advices from Westport, Mo., to tbo 20th inst., state that a* two men named Cosgrove and Brannau, were on there way to Treamtou, they were flred upon by a party or Free titate men. Braunan was wounded, but Cosgrove flred and shot the leader or the attacking party through tho head. People are leaving Lawrence in great numbers, the towus of Klckapoo, Loavensworth, Doniphan, and Atchison were almost deserted, the grown male inhabitants having gone to the assistance or U. & Marshall Donation. It was reported at Jefferson that a great battle had been fought at Lawrence, and that numbers wore killed on both sides. No particulars or the battle were given. Tho hotel at Kansas city was threatened with de struction. It Is the properly or Massachusetts men. Bo certain was its destruction considered, that tho fumbles occupying it moved out. A reward has been offored lor the head or Gen. Pomeroy, and numbers or men were searching for him.

MnujKRB bv ths INDIANS. »-We tako the following from the Palatka, Fla., Democrat, of lbe22d inst. We lcaru from Brig. Gen. Churchill, or tho U. S. army, that while on bis way from Tampa hero, ho took lodglugs for the night on Wednesday, the 14tb inst., at the house or Whitfield; 36 milosfroro Dun- pa. Before he left Whitfield’s, he learned that the Indians approached Capt. Bradloy’s house, a few miles distant. Bradley’s family bad returned from supper, and the children were in an open passage of the house, wheu the Indians flred a volley which killed a little girl and mortally wounded a boy fif teen years old ; he ran luto the house, got a guu, uud returned tu the passage to Are, wheu he foil dead. The mother, Mrs. Bradley, ran out and ear* ned her children into the house. The Indians shot at her without hurting her or any more ot her chil dren. Cayt. Bradley, who was prostrated on his bod by sickness, arose and returned a Are ou the IndiauB with two or three guus which he bad In his house, which caused them to withdraw. Captain Bradley bad a married daughter living at a distance, hut within hearing or the firing. She sent a negro boy to ascertain the cause—he went to*Brad!ey’s house and returned without molestation—he did uot boo the lndtaus. Bradloy thinks there was not less tbuu fifteen Indians, although at the first dlschargo his daughter did not hear more than six or seven re ports. He was also or the opinion that the ludlaus were about his house all night. Captain Bradley sent a statement of the Tacts to Gen. Churchill; and besides this information Gen. Churchill saw persons who had visited Bradley’s house. Tho mall stage betwen Ocala and Tampa is discontinued. General Churchill was In the first Seminole war of 1836, and was lately ordered out here, on a tour of observation, by the Secretary of War. Lawrence City. The loss to the world will not be great, even should the telegraphic dispatch announcing that Lawrence has been “destroyed” prove literally true. The following ploture of the place appears in the Hartford (Conn.) Timet. The source whence it comes leaves no room to doubt but that It is as favorable as tho facts of the case would warrant: “Mr. Pease, of this city, who recently went out to Kansas with Mr. Lines’s company, has returned. He says that Lawrence City presents an unfavorable appearance. There la no thrift, no prosperity, apparent; but whiskey—poor whiskey, too—is poured down on every hand. It is dealt out In almost eveiy building. Drink* Ing la the principal business, audit Is backed u > by Idlers, the people generally waiting for ‘ah ’ from the East* Sharpe’s rifles were offered to him, he says, for ten dollars each. The price in Hartford, where they are made, Is $26 and $28. Exaggerated stories are started in Law* rence City, and sent off to keep up the excite ment at the East, and bring in more aid to sup port the idlers in doing nothing except to drink whiskey, circulate false reports, ana talk poli tics. Such Is the state of things in Lawrence, the result of unusual efforts to manufacture slavery agitation with reference to the coming presidential election.” Tub Havana Newil—The Havana correspon-, dent of the New York Journal oj Commerce writiug under date of May 18, says: It is intimated that several Spanish veaselsof war will leave this week for Yin CruB, to en force the payment or recognition of certain claims by this Government against Mexico, cre ated at the last restoration of Santa Anna to power. Health of Havana good. We have some "Costa Rican” excitement and sympathy here. Their cause has the prayers of the Holy Roman Catholic Church, *Ud it fow incog* Span ish swords. Excitement in Waihington—Mr. Benton anil hi* family—Mr. Benjamin and the vetoet. Wahuinuton, May 23. The oity of Washington la to day realising in in a forcible manner the exclusiveness with which the publlo mind may be absorbed with one exciting subject to the banishment or many others which were but recently regard* ed as of deepest Interest. Yesterday, the gloo my events In Kansas on the one hand, and the favorable Indications afforded by the publica tion of certalu correspondence of Lord Claren don, on the other, gave sufficient stimulus to every intelligent mtud. But iu the midst of thl s the uews was spread throughout the city of the assault made in the Senate Chamber, and in an instant tills took possession of every faculty, and up to the present hour, there have been few words on the other themes. I speak not of the interested partizans of eith er of the parties to that occurrence, but of the feelings and convictions of the true and stead- test people of this city,whose home Is here, who desire peace within that home, and who tremble for its permanence when the permaneuce of the Union is threatened, or when a stigma is cast upon their city. Does this leeliug uot extend beyond Washington? Surely It does, and surely the thiuklng millions of this republic uro regard ing the eveut of yesterday, “more in sorrow than in anger,” It may be, yet with a deep if silent rebuke. What the provocation was is not essential to be known. A Senator within a Senate house, aud a Judge upou the sent of jus tice must be Racred troiu assault aud menace, or it were better that even the name of liberty should be forgotteu. On meeting With Col. Benton, ou I’ensylvania Aveuuo, to-day, I spoke of this affair. “ Sir,” said he, “ it is not a question relating to Mr, Sumner, uor to Mr. Brooks. It is a higher ques tion. It affects the name of Republicanism. The names ot those gentlemen may not be remem bered after being once repeated, throughout Europe; but this occurrence will. The memo ry of It wtU live as a reproach to our form of Government until something even more disre putable shall efikee it” Mr. Benton is about to proceed to Missouri, where his friends have nominated him for Gov ernor. How Btrange Is the Infatuation of pub- lie life! He has a highly interesting family of children and grand children. A more Intelligent family may not be found within the whole wide cotratiy—daughters, sons-in-law and grand chil dren—nor, perhaps, a family more wealthy; his foreslghtednesa and skill, and the inspiration he Imparted to his sons-in-law, no doubt obtain ing all their wealth. And yet, ever restless and ambitions, he keeps his family separated, often by thousands of miles, and he clings to the long accustomed honors of public life with a tenacity that seems a part of his very nature. I Btated heretofore that In vetoing the St* Clair Flats and Mississippi bills, the President was consistent with himself, and Mr. Beqjamin, of Louisiana, has sought to prove It otherwise, but sought in vain, as I must continue to be lieve. This position of Mr. Beqjamin is to be regretted, though the interests of New Orleans are so deep in the shallow waters of the passes (this, to be sure, is like a Hlbsrhianism!) that Mr. Beqjamin must be pardoned for floundering a little. Impartial. The Brooks ami Sumner Affair. The account given by the Washington corres pondent of thy Herald is perhaps as reliable as any other: Mr. Brooks waited at the Porter's Lodge about —i hour yesterday, and as long this morning, hoping to meet Mr. Sumner, with a view to at tack him. Failing in this, he entered the Sen ate chamber to-day, just as that body adjourned, and seeing several ladies present, seated himself on the opposite side to Mr. Sumner. Soon all disappeared but one. He then requested a friend to get her out, wheu he immediately ap proached Mr. Sumner, and said, in a quiet tone of voice t Mr. Sumner, I have read your speech with great care, and with as much impartiality as I am capable of, and I feel it my duty to say to you, that you have published a libel on my State, and uttered slander upon a relative, who is aged and absent, and lam come to punish you. At the concluding words Mr. Sumner attempt ed to spring to bis feet, showing flght, but while In the act was struck by Col. Brooks a back- handed blow across the head with a gutto per ch* cane near an Inch thick, but hollow, and he continued striking him right and left until the stick was broken into atoms, and Mr. Sumner was prostrate and bleeding on the floor. No one took hold of Col. B. during the time, so quick was the operation; but immediately af terwards Mr. Critteudeu caught him around the body and arms, whenCoLB. said. “I did not wish to hart him much, but only whip him.” No one knew of the anticipated attack but the Hon. H. A. Edmundson, of Virginia, who happened not to be present when tho attack commenced. It was reported on the streets for several days previous that Mr. Sumner would be armed when ne delivered his speech, and that If occasion required It he would use his weapons. He was not armed when attacked by Col. Brooks to-day. It Is said, also, that Mr. Sumner gave out before he made his speech that he would bo responsible for anything he might say. Speaking of Sumner’s outrageous attack on Judge Butler, the Washington correspondent of the Columbia Timet says: Judge Butler once protected him from person al chastisement with a cowikln, and this, no doubt, is the cause of his excessive bitterness and hatred, on the principle that if you do a man a favor he will never forgive you for it Nkw York Stock and Monkt Market.— 1 Tho New York Journal or Commerco or Tuesday evening says Thore is less pressure In the money market to day. although somo borrowers are still negotiating for large sums to mako up the amount which their accommodations have boeu curtailed by tbo con traction of tho bauka.

Tiie two sessions of Lectures past have satiE* fled me that tho manipulations of the Laborato ry are dangerous to my health, and cannot with prudence or safety be continued. 1 regret it tho more, because of the perfectly cordial intercourse which has always existed between the members of the Faculty and my self, rendering our joint labors both pleasant and profitable to me. It will always give me pleasure to contribute in any manner to the prosperity of the Savan nah Medical College. Yours, very respectfully, Charles W. West, M. D. May 20th, 1850. Joseph Jones of Liberty county,Georgia,hav ing been recommended by the Faculty to fill the vacancy occasioned by the resignation of Dr. West, tho Board proceeded to ballot for him, and he was elected unanimously.) *Jt was then resolved that the proceedings of the meeting be published.
