Murder of the Japanese Regent. The North China (Shanghue) Herald, of May 2d, gives the following account of the assassination of the Prince Re gent of Japan, which it will be seen differs from all others yet received: There was hitherto a doubt as to the fate of the Regent of this Kingdom, who, it will be remembered, was at tacked by a party of the followers of the Prince of Milto when proceeding to the palace of the Tycoon, on the 2lth of March last. The doubt, however, did not exist among the Japanese au thorities, who knew, but concealed the fact of hit death, announcing publicly that he was only dangerously wouud- Accounfs recently received from that country State that the Prince was on his way from his own palace, which is about one-third of a mile from the great bridge leading to the inner palace of the Tycoon, to whom he was going to pay a visit, seated in his ornomon (sedan chair or palankeen,) and sur. rounded by a large staff Of attendants. As the procession was about to cross the bridge,'at a point where another road meets it, they were suddenly as sailed by six'een or eighteen men, who, throwing off their rain coats, (it was raining at the time,) appeared in full armor, and rushed on, cutting through the Regent’s party, against all opjic sition, to the Prince's ornomon, whte! they pierced with their swords, and cut off his head, with, which one of them escaped, whilst another, cutting off the head of one of the retainers, exclaim ed, ‘‘I have the Regent’s head,” thus diverting attention from him who real ly possessed it. He esenped through one of the principal gates without be ing stopped by the officer or. duty, who for this negligence was commanded to commit suicide the next morning.— Two of the party performed the disem boweling process on the spot. They lhave all been apprehended but two.— |Ten thousand of the Prince’s depend ants are said to have arrived in Yeddo (from his provinces, a few days after the event, equipped for war. he Great Prize Drill to Come Off at Memphis. Tho following extract from a letter of the Captain of the Columbus (Qa.) Guards, which has just been published fixes the sceno of the great drilling match in which tho Guards are to en gage against the Chicago Zouaves “The Columbus Guards will meet the United States Zouave Cudols of Chicago, at- Memphis in the State of Tennessee, in the month of May mxt the day to be hereafter named—scientific tacticians to bo choson as umpires. “In addition to the infantry and light infantry tactics <rf Scott mid Hardee, if Capt Ellsworth Inis any other system for foot troops in use in his company, which is of any utility, and will furnish tne with a copy, the Columbus Guards will meet the United States Zouave Cadets of Chicago in them. On the other hand, I will present Capt. Ellsworth with n copy of the rules written for tho Cnluir- bus Guards by myself, modifying and applying the rule for manantvering a battallion by tho rear-rank ns prescribed by Scott and Hardee, to the movements of a detached company. “Tho Columbus Guards discard with out roservo all lancy movements as un worthy the attention of any military company ; but in doing so they are not to lie understood ns declining to drill with the United States Zouave Cadets of Chicago in any tactics for foot troops; thereby demonstrating the relative qual ities of the two companies, not as purude soldiers, but us efficient military organi zations. PAUL J. 8EMMES, “ Captuin." Mr Bell’s Record. -Several Demo cratic papers have slated, in general terms, that Mr. Bull has invariably vo ted against Sout h.. Wotisl; them to tell us if the following resolution ottered as an amendment by Jeff. Davis, io 1850, was against the South? Read it and answer: “That nothing herein contained shall be construed so auto prevent said Ter ritorial Legislatures from passing such laws as may be necessary *br the protec tion of the rights of property of every kind which may be hereafter, coniform- ably to the Constitution und laws of the United States, held in or introduced in to, said Territory.” John Bell voted for the amendment. During the discussion of the Compro mise Measures, that great man, John M. Berrien, introduced an amendment providing that no laws should be passed by a Territorial Legislature "either es tablishing or prohibiting slavery.”— John Bell voted for it. Let Douglas and Breckinridge show such a re cord, if they cau.—Selma (Ala.) Repor ter. The Prince of Wales at St. Johns. St.Johns, N. F., July *26.—Yester day nddreses were presented to the Pnnre, to which he replied as fellows: '1 sincerely thank you for the addres ses presented to me, and for the hearty weloomo received from all on my land ing on the shores of this, the earliest colonial possession of the British Crown. I trust you will not think me regard- lesiof your loyalty, if I acknowledge these addresses collectively. .It will af ford me the. greatest satisfaction to re port to the .Queen the devotion to. her Crown and person unmistakably evinc ed by the reception of her son elo quently expressed in the addresses from various bodies in this town and Harbor de Grace. I am charged hy the Queen to convey to you-the assurance of the deep concern she has ever felt in this interesting portion of her domin ions. I shall carry back a lively recol lection of this day’s proceedings, and of your kindness to myself, personally, but above all of those hearty demon strations of patriotism which prove your deep-rooted attachment to the great ana free country of which we all glory to bo called the sons.” The Prince pleases tho populace im mensely by his handsome countenance and mild gentlemanly bearing. He drives out to day. There will be a dinner pnrty at the Government House this evening, and a ball at 10 o’clock to-night-. Tlie fire-works last night were a poor affair. To-day is a beautiful clear day for the regatta. Amehicans with Gasibaldi.—A con siderable number of Americans have joined the army of Garibaldi. A young Virginian left Paris on the lltli inst, with a commission ns lieutenant lie had just received from headquarter at Pa lermo. . Significant.—A little incident occur red in this county a few days since, which we deem of sufficient impor'ance to make it known to our readers.— Twenty-three persons—all voters—Imd casually dropped in at the house of a neighbor, merely to pass off u few hours in social converse. The subject of poli tics incidentally coming up, it- was lound that they were all for Bell and Everett but one. This assemblage was entirely accidental, and merely a promiscuous meeting. It is worthy of further re mark that this incident took place in one of the strongest democratic Dis tricts in the county.—Harris County En terprise. Accident to Mb. Stephens.—We re gret to learn that tiiis distinguished gentleman met with a painful, though we hope not at all serious acoidi nt one day last week. Ilis foot, or rather the heel of his shoe, caught in the door sill or carpet strip os he was going out, and he was thrown violently to the ground—a distance of four or live feet, fell upon his face which was much bruised and scratched by the gravelly surface upon which he fell.—Southern Runner. _ jjgyTho call for the late Bell and Ev erett meeting in Cincinnati, Ohio was signed hy two thousand voters; and the Times (an independent journal of that city) states that the signatures to the paper wevc not solicited os is usual, but were voluntarily given. 8@-The Breckinridgers in Jtheir des peration are claiming a great many mcti who are not of them. Our informa tion is that Judge Iloit is for Bell first, lust and all the time. Dr. Miller may feel himselfcommitted to vote for Breck inridge, though he prefers Bell. Col. Tidwell may jmsib/y vote for Breckin ridge, but that is extremely doubtful. - Such is our information is regaid to these gentlemen.—Chron. <£* Sen.
