Washington,Aug G.—A hostile meeting took place to-day at noon jiear the residence of Fran cis P. Blair,between Mr. Pryor,of the Richmond Enquirer, and Mr. Rldgway, of ti*o Whig, distance ten pace*, weapons, pistols. After an exchange of shots, the affair was amicably ad justed, through the intervention of Preston S* Brooks, Mr. Edmunxon and Mr. G'askie, of the House of Representatives, us mutual friends. fu the Senate. The Senate finished the internal improve ment bills; passed bills for tiie improvement of Charleston and Apalachicola harbors, Bayou I*aFourcbe, in Louisiana, and Red River. In the Ilouac. The House has passed land grants in Missis sippi in aid of the construction of a Railroad. Another Card. Gen. Lane, and Mr. Bocock, as Brooks’ friends publish a card to-day replying to Bur lingame. The Savannah Republican published, day before yesterday, a letter from the New York Tribune, by which it was regularly sold. If it wants any information concerning Mr. Fill more’s administration, we refer them to an edi torial in the New York Herald of the 4th. We do not propose to use the editorials of a paper conducted by such a venal scoundrel as Ben nett, and, therefore, do not publish it. If any thing could ever make us vote for Mr. Fillmore, it would bo the ajjiw* of such papers as the Herald and Tribune. II may tie! be amUa for nr to give acme plain, practical rJewa, which we may indulge the hope will recommend themaetreato holiness men. Engaged In the harraaslng affairs of com mercial life, they are unwilling to fatigue their minds with lengthened political disquisitions* It is the otyoct of this article, not to ask their sop port for the Democratic party, but merely to suggest some food for reduction, on their in teresta as they are to lie offcclcd by the Issues now before the people of this country. We hold it as a self evident proposition that Uie commeraUl and monetary interest lias the most vital stake, wherethe issue Is (as it is now) National Union or Sectionalism and ultimate disunion. The issue is simply Union or no Union—and the tole teat question is Slavery Politicians may bawl, newspapers may indulge in pleasant fictions calculated to mislead—the fact to every reasonable and thinking mind is plain and palpable. All questions have been swallowed ap In the all absorbing issue which must lie settled, and upon the proper adjust raent of which depends the future prosperity of the merchant. His feeling should be that of Salaniojn the Merchant of Venice : Sal: lloloiv* me, Sir, had I such vesture forth, Tbs better part of my affections would. Be with tny hopes abroad, I should be still 1’lucklng the grass, to know where »IU the wind Paring In tnsps far Ports end Piers end road*. Aud every objeet that tn igbt make me fear. MWfortune to my ventures, eut or doubt. Would make me sad. But the commercial man is ever ready to content himself with tbe idea that Disunion is impossible. We would call bis mind to a few leading facts, which may succeed in lessening his confidence in such a supposition. In 1850 the compromise measures were passed, which, were unacceptable to a considerable number ef the Southern peopla. The States of Virginia, Missouri, and Kentucky, believing that resistance to those measures tended to wards Disunion, early took ground In their fr. vor and sustained them by immense majorities. Georgia also, which boasted a large Southern Rights Party, gave her unqualified approbation, by an overwhelming vote. And so of all the Southern States. If any one will have the cu riosity to examine the sentiments of the press in the States named, at that time and the pre sent upon the question of disunion, they will be somewhat surprised. At that time the South was divided, now it Is a unit, and the universal feeling is that expressed in the 4th resolution of the Geogia platform. The States in this re gion used to lie considered the ultra States, it Is now the border States, which carry off the palm in that regard. In Georgia, the revulsion of opinion is complete. These are facts ca pable ofacurate demonstration, and undenia ble proof. With the generally rececived opinions of the South, suppasc Fremont be elected—what then? wc hear some ono ask that is no cause for dis union-admitted. But is it reasonable to sup^ pose that the men who will have elevated him to that office, will stop short of some act by which the rights of the South are openly attack ed?—and must Fremont not support them" and does any sensible man suppose that the Southern people, who having not given a vote to put him in the Presidential chair, without representative of hers having any power in the machinery of the Government, wthout one of her public men in the Cabinet, will stand idly by and submit tamely to the march ef aggression ? Those wno think so wrong gallant people. Wc fongbt the revolution be cause of taxation without reprentation, aud this would virtually amount to the same thing. if a civil dirsuption lie upon us then'(and for the sake of argument we suppose it to be peacable one) what becomes of the business world? Will the course of commerce flow on in Its usual smooth channel ? Wili stocks or bonds rise in the market ? There ean"ot be a lioubt on these points. An absolute annihilation of the commercial relations which now exist would ensue. A rcct trade would immediately spring up be tween the Southern States and Great Britain and France. The business alliances which now exist between the North and the South would be of no avail, and the foreign merchants would flock In, who, by their commercial con nections iu Europe, and a control of the carry ing trade, would entirely usurp the places now occupied by Americans of the Northern States* It wili tie said that no good reason cun he giv’ en for saying that tho Northern trade would he broken up. Will it he supposed for one mo ment, when such animosity is engendered as would bo in the case of separation, that the South would not discriminate against Northern manufactures, and in favor of foreign? It would certainly be. When the merchant has reflected on these, let him look whore ho will probably ensure the perpetuity of this Union, and his own prosper, ity. He has to choose one of two. Mr. Bu chanan is a sound man, and his election is al most certain. Mr. Fillmore is certain not to get a Free State. To lose Mr. Buchanan one slave State might produce serious results, and bo of no benefit to Mr. Fillmore himself. Every advantage would inure to Fremont by such a calamity. • J * Oanaltan on Vllkore’i Fmeiiov .Hon and Hie Cuban Massacre. Loath to trust our own feeling* in comment- ting upon the attrocioos massacre of American citizen* in Cuba—the roe nit of Mr. FUltnore’a proclamation, wc choose rather to give place to the following remarks of A. aI.Dom.lsou, the K. N. candidate for the Vice Presidency, in re lation thereto: Our readers will perceive that affair* on the Island of Cuba arc yet iu a state of uncertainty. It Is useless for iu to attempt to unravel the tangled skein of conflicting statements. But there lx one fact about which there is no doubt. It stand* oat, bold and prominent, from t bloody background. Fifty of our citizens have been seized on the Gulf, carried to Havana, und shot within two hours— bnt little more thun tho time necessary to disembark them and march them to the place of execution. Wc baveuo hesitation in saying that the fifty men executed at Havana.were not tried. They may have been tried iu gross, and carried through a mock trial—nothing more was possible: and that was no more a trial than if they had heeu, each of them, shot as they walked from the Uabauero to the shore. Let us ask, how could it happen that those fifty Americau citizens could have been tried, condemned, aad execut ed, and yet tbe American people be left iu doubt a* to where they were taken—how they were taken—whether they were armed when taken ? Again, we say the idea is preposter ous; and we say so with more confidence, knowing that the National Intelligencer Is too apt to err in its efforts to uphold and sustain the Spanish authority in Cul»a. All Accounts agree that the American Consul at Havana diii not interpose to PREVENT THE HURRIED MA8SACHB INTUAT CITY. It is staled that he excused himselffrom inter fering by Mr. Fillmore's proclamation of the 25 th of April last—two months und ten days be fore the nring in Cuba. The proclamation states that "there is reason to believe that a military expedition is about to be fitted out in tbe United states, - ’ intended for the invasion or Cuba, Ac. The proclamation then asserts that** such expeditions can only be regarded as adventures for plunder aud robbery.’ - Tru ly, this was unnecessary. The administration believed on the 25th of April, that a military expedition was about to lie fitted out from our shores, aud then went on to denounce the per sons who might engage in such expedition as robbers aud plunderers j WE FEEL NO HES ITATION IN SAYING THAT THIS PRO CLAMATION EMBOLDENED TUB SPAN ISH AUTHORITIES TO BUTCHER OUR CITIZENS AS THEY WOULD HAVE BUTCHERED DUMB BEASTS. WITHOUT THIS PROCLAMATION,THE SPANISH AU THORITIES WOULD NOT HAVE DARED TO PURSUE THE COURSE THEY HAVE PURSUED. Here we must again laraeut that the Presi dent should denounce our citizens, in advance, as robbers and plunderers, and proclaim to for eign powers that they might massacre them at pleasure. The followers of General Lopez em barked after an outbreak had taken place iu Cuba, and a declaration of independence had been promulgated ou that island. The out break took place, and the declaration promul gated on the 4th of July; yet on the 25th of April the President denounced all who should attempt to give effective aid to the Cubau patri ots as iiOUUERS AND PLUNDERERS. As HOOn as it was ascertained that the people of Cuba had turned on their oppressors, the Executive left Washington, leaving, at the same time, our in terests in the Gulf uncared for. Why did he did no tissue a new proclamation suited to the new events ? The organs or the administration came to the rescue, denouncing our citizens us practical maurauder, and as enemies of the law of nations, thus urgiug aud inciting tbe Spanish authorites to greater attrocitcs. Will the Intelligencer—will the Republic, in its of ficial zeal—disclose to us the evidence on which they deuounce our murdered citizens ?—Will •hey detail to us the evidence on which those men were brutally executed? Will they point us to the previsions or principle of the interna tional law which calls for such barbarity? Will they undertake to answer the cogent reasoning of Mr. Webster’s celebrated letter to Mr. Fox. Let no one charge us with the employment of severity. This lauguage is not oius. it Is from tiie peu of Andrew Jackson Donelson Arrest or the Negroes Charged with Burning of the Steamer St. John’s at Jacksonville.—The steamer We taka, from Jacksonville, arrived yesterday; among tho passengera were Sergt. Wilson,connected with the mounted Police or this City, who visited the above mentioned city as the agent for the owners of the St. Johns. He arrested, assisted by two officers of Jacksonville and Mr. Cuuovu, the agent of Savannah line of steamers, three negroes, Dorsey, Tom, a deck hand of tho St, Johns when burned, and Henry Brown, all owned in Jacksonville. An examination of tho parties before Squire Wheaton, intendant of the city, was progressing, when Sergt. W. left. Ono of tiie witnesses testified that he heard Dorsey and Tom urrungc tlieir plans to bum the St. Johns, which they successfully accomplished. Hugaut Wilson, while investigating the cose was severely injured by a blow, inflicted iu a cowardly manner, by Aaron W. LaCosta, iate City Mai-Hhul at Jacksonville, who wus dis missed from his office several weeks ago, for dishonesty. Mr. Cunningham and Mr. John G. Fulligant, of this City, part owners of the steamer, are at Jacksonville, prosecuting tho case, and have Messrs. Fleming and Hamilton Coupcr, as their attorneys. Tho burnt steamer is fast being raised und will bo towed to this city for repairing, on the next trip of the Welal:u. There is confined in our jail, the stewardess of the bout,who is deop. ly connected with tho afliilr. Borgt. Wilson psed every exertion to bring ihc guilty parties to Justice, and if justice is done in tiie promi- sis, one of Dio arrested negroes wili he hung for anon; tho whole plot was deeply laid und managed. Tho examining Court will render their decision, and we will have tho particulars by the steamer Darlington, due on Hatnrduy morning.

Another Sign in the South.—Tiie Pensa. cola (Fla.,) Gazette has just raised at its mast head the name of Millard Fillmore, and it says it intends to do zealous battle in the good cause, it lias hitherto been neutral.—Natwina/i Republican. It has been our fortune to be pretty intimate ly acquainted with Florida politics for ten years past. During that time we are confident that there has been no political canvass throughout which the Gazette has not been in opposition to the Democratic party. If we are wrong, its editor will please correct The N. Y. Journal of Commerce, a strong Democratic paper, says that, of tho anti-Know Nothing papers it receives from Pennsylvania 21, with a circulation of 112,900, are for Buchan an, und 41, with n circulation of 88,612, for Fremont. What a miserable showing for Bu chanan in his own State !—Savannah Republi can. The Isancaster (Pa.) Examiner says : "Wo have taken occasion within the last week to inquire into the political views of nearly all tho opposition press in the State, and wc now say, advisedly, that we know of hut four that are advocating the caiiBC of Fillmore and Don- elson. We make this statement advisedly, and on no limited information.” What a miserable showing for FUlmore in the Btato adjoining that of his own residencel The reader will observe that tbe Pennsylvania Fillmore papers, all told, number but 4, while the 21 mentioned above are only such Buchanan papers as go to the Journal of Commerce in ex change. There are probably twice 21 others with which that journal does not exchange.

A Sporting Fish—A Dead Bii*t.—An in tcresting account is given in tiie elevneth num ber of tbe "Edinburgh Philosophical Journal’ 1 of the Jactdator fish of Java, by a gentleman who had an opportunity of examining some specimens of it in the possession of a chief. “Tho fish were placed in a small circular pond, from the centre of which projected a pole upwards of two feet in bight; at the top of this pole were inserted several pieces of wood, shar pened at tiie points, ou each of which were transfixed some insects of the beetle tribe. When all had become quiet, after the beetles had been secured, the fish, which had retired during the operation, cume out of their hiding placei, and began to circle round the pond One of them ut length rose to the surface o! the water, and, After steadily fixing his eyes for some time upon an insect, discharged from its mouth a small quantity of water-like fluid with such force and precision of aim as to drive the beetle ofl the twig into the water where was it instantly swallowed. After this, another fish enme and performed a similar feat and was followed by the rest, till all the in sect* hud been devoured. Tho writer observed that if a fish failed in bringing down its pre; at the first shot, it swum round the pond unti it again came opposite the same object, and fired again, in one instance lie remarked one of the fish return three times to the attack be fore it secured its prey; but, in general, they seemed to he very expert shots, bringing down the game at the very first discharge. The jacu- lator, in a state of nature, frequents tho hanks of rivers in search of food. When it spies a fly settling on the plants that grow in shallow wu- ter, it swims on to tho distance of from five tc six feet of them, and then, with surprising dex terity, ejects from its tubular mouth a single drop of fluid, which rarey fuilsto strike the 11 into the water, where it is immediately swa! lowed.” Appropriation* for Forts* Among the items in tho appropriation bill fur fortifications which passed the House of Representatives last Saturday, arc the follow ing : For Fort Montgomery, outlet of Lake Cham plain, $25,000.

The facts are as follows: Dr. W. J. C. Rogers, who had for some 24 hours previous to the commission of the deed been in a state of intoxication and p-eat excitement, took a gun from his room the Drug Store, and went home to his din ner. While at dinner bto conduct was severely reprimanded by his wife, and a quarrel was the immediate consequence. In the heat of tbe quarrel Dr. Rogers seized his gun, which was loaded with squirrel shot, and fired at his wife, when within a few feet of her, lodging the contents of the gun in her side, when she fell. She was taken up and laid upon a bed by neighbor who wa* called in by the Doctor. Everything was done for her that medical aid could accomplish, but in vain. She died in about an hour and a half after being shot. „ Coroner’s inquest was soon held, and the jury decided according to the facts mentioned above. As it was considered desirable by a few per sons to have the facts in the cose legally estah li8hed lie fore proceeding to arrest the Doctor the Sheriff merely kept a watch on movements determining to await tiie verdict of the Coro net’s jury. His services being required to call the jury together, he deputized two or three men to continue the watch,and prevent an escape during his absence. When about dark, and before the jury had rendered their verdict, the Doctor managed to escape from the guard, who it appears were unarmed, and up to tbe present time has not been taken, though several persons are still in pursuit. He was at Geig er’s Ferry, on the Whitlacoochee, on Sunday morning, and to supposed to be inaikng his way to Cedar Keys, with tiie intention of ship ping from that point. Since the above was putin type, Dr. Rogers Gas been taken, and is now in jail.— Ocala (Flo) Companion. A Lucky North Carolinian.
