The difference between the two bills was, that the ; *■—>* ■"»■“*•"* -«—»* s.iism, andis entering upon new triumph* of J from voting; the bill which he moved to substitute ■ iples. Mr. Foster replied, saying the Democrats had we ided them-el. c- to a measure and not to a great principle, for it buJ come out to-day that the Xe- br oka bill is understood differently iu one section , fr a what it is in another. If principle i» the test, ! ht ,t speak but one language, lie condemned the D. u-eratic caucus resolution. N ow, we submit it to the honest men of all par- , tic iu the South, whether the flimsy pretexts here j urged by Mr. Cobb aff-wi any ju-titieatiun of the extraordinary position taken by his party in this j Controversy—a |H-eiliun which, we venture to lay, j in bitterness and proscription has no parrallel in j the history of parties iu this country. Let us look at it for a moment. It will be re- i numbered that the National Americans, in their ; pr .position for a union in opposition to the Black , R. i'ubli-nns, did not contemplate an abandon- | incut of tAtiromi m<n by the democratic party: on ! the contrary, had they gone into the caucus, u de- i mocrut must necessarily have been selected, as ; they would have constituted a large majority of the j meeting. This is the true state of the case: The Democracy bad declared that adherence to the | Nebraska bill wa.- the great, and indeed the «»i/y issue. The Nationj! Americans, a wholly iudepend- i en: party organisation, and running their own can lidnte, agreed with them on that que.-tion. an.l alter several weeks of ineffectual balloting for Sj c-ikcr, during w hich time the entire legislative m: liincry of the government was at a dead lock, came forward in a spirit of conciliation and patriot ism and proposed to the Democratic party—not a permanent union, or that the individuality of eitacr party should become merged in the transaction, but—a friendly conference, with the hops that something might he agreed upon thut would haruiouize conflicting interests and en able them to proceed with tlic business of the country. How was the proposition received? In- sttNid of accepting there fair and honorable terms, tiic friends of Mr. Richardson rejected them with scorn, declaring that they would consult with no body who did not come into the council ns Demo crat$. What an extraordinary spectacle! And what are tho reasons assigned by Mr. Cobb, a southern man, for this proud and arrogant bear ing on the part of himself aud his political friends ? Why, because the American party am opposed to bc'towing the rich boon of citizenship and the pr-md title of American Citizen upon men who aro unfit for the one and arc unable to comprehend the other, and prefer tlicir own fellow-citizens to for eigners to fill the offices of government—that for tlii.- they are unworthy of any association with the iinmnculate Democracy, even should it become necessary in order to save the government from confusion! Was ever "iich a position taken in this country before? Was there ever a party known in all our history, before now, that would rather see the country itself perish, than to unite with a certain port : ”n of their fellow [■ Cn aiu-kston and Savannah Baks.—The follow- citizens to save it* To our mind it exhibit* a j ing paragraph is from the Charleston -1/erciiry of spectacle of political depravity and malevolence j Monday : that is absolutely monstrous.

T,,i " k - If they do, they nre prepared for any fate. The object of this whole price lure of tho Dem ocratic party in the House, is too apparent to bo for it granting this privilege to foreigners, inference then is clear, that Mr. Uivhardson is willing to allow foreigners to vote, in the organi zation of Territories, even though they have but just reached the country and ure totally ignorant of the object of tho elective franchise. How, then, can Americans vote for Mr. Richardson ? “2d. It is well known that Mr. Richardson has justified his support of the Kansu*.Nebraska bill on the ground that tbe bill would make Kansas aud Nebraska, and all oilier Territories here after Organized in accordance with the princi ples of the Knnsas-Nebruska bill, free terri tory. This is the ground upon which he de fended himself during the last Congressional elec tion in the State of Illinois, and the press which advocated liis re-election ^defended him on the same ground, and boldly asserted that the course of Mr. Richardson was iu accordance with the wishes of the free States, because the Kansas and Nebraska bill would make these territoiic* free." “If such was his defense, how can the ultra Southern tr.cn support him? Ilis construction of the principles and operation of the Kunsas-Nebra-- ka bill is entirely different from thut put upon itbv those of the South now voting for him. The con- elusion is inevitable from these facts that he would n it have voted for it, although it may contain the *• squatter sovereignty" principle, if he had not be- liorcd that the result would be in accordance with the wishes of the Northern people, and this is the conclusion which lie himself deduced from liis course and urged with great force before his con stituents. Again, we ask, how can those Southern men who profess to stand upon the Howell Cobb Georgia platform sustain Mr. Richardson for Speaker, knowing as they do, that these arc the con clusions which be deduced from the principles es tablished in this act! There is no consistency bc- tweeu their professions and their actious.” HfMsviLi.r.

The population is about one hundred nml thirty thousand, of whom more than thirty thousand are engaged directly in tho fisheries. The registered tonnage of vessels owned upon this Island is about one hundred thousand tons, and the toumigc in wards and outwards with forcigu purls embraces about twenty-six hundred vessels, amounting to over three hundred thuu.-niul tons. The imports d exports of the colony are valued at about ten lliotis of ilulhir*.

A Clergyman may M a it nr Himsei.p.—Tho Irish Court of Qticcu's Bench has decided that a clergyman may marry himself. Tho qucition arose 11* to the legitimacy of the children of n marriage thus performed. The Rev. S. S. Beamish was du ly ordained n clergyman of the United Churches • f England and Ireland, and it appears thnt on unher, 1831, being then in holy to tho house of Anno Lyons, in the id there performed a ceremony of cn himself nnd Isabella Fraser.— diet described the manner in whirh tlie ceremony took place, nml tho gcm-tul form of tint solemnisation was thnt set out in the Bonk of Common I'ravcr of the United Churches of Eng land nnd Ireland, Mr. llenminh then declaring that he took the said Isabella Frnscr to be liis wedded wife; site taking him to bo her wedded husband. Thu wedding ring was then placed upon her linger, nud tiic blessing was pronounced. Judge Ornmp- t m delivered jinlgmcut in fi»vor of tho validity of the marriage. tire buniiug: and so they followed with renewed idity. The same thing happened as before. Lo guu had gone, und another tire met their ustouished gaze, while (lie same sort of foot prints were about the one nrouud which they were now gathered.— Their suspicious were now awakened. They exj aiiiiiicd tlie ground mure closely, both far nml neat, ami discovered that u solitary hursemua had de ceived them, ond they knew it was for the sole pur pose of leading them off from the party whose eu- inpincnt they hnd first discovered. Loguti saw them going round with glaring torches, and understood their object, and knew that his ouly chance of safety was iu immediate flight towards his home: and he further knew thut bv tho time they could retrace their way to their* place of s!urling, nud find the trail thut his own people had taken, they would be beyond Jhc reach of danger. The Sionx, in the meanwhile, had divided into smaller bands, the largest of which was to return and pursue the Omaha", and the others to endeavor to capture the one they had missed. They knew that he must be an Omahn. and that lie would either go further and kindle another watch-fire, ore start for his nation iu a straight Hue; and therefore one party went on a little tiirtlier, nnd the others spread out towards the Omaha country, for the purpose of intercepting him. Logan pressed for ward us fast as hi* jaded steed could bear him, 1 until he thought he had entirely eluded them, but i as the day dawned, to his horror and dismay, he i saw his pursuers close upon his track. He turned j his course for a ravine, which he dis'inguished nt a j distance, covered with trees and undergrowth. He succeeded in reaching it, and just within its verge be met nn Indian girl dipping water from the | spring. She was startled, and about to cry for 1 help, when he hastily assured her that lie needed protection nnd assistance. With the true instinct of j n noble woman, she appreciated his situation in an ] instant, nml all her sympathies were with him.— ' She directed him to dismount and go to a small 1 natural bower to which .-lie pointed him. ia the ; verge of tho wonds, while she would mount nis ! horse nnd lead his pursuers away. He obeyed her, aud she mounted his horse, and dashing on in a serpentine way through the wood*, leaving marks along ilic brushes by whirh she could be traced. The pursuers soon followed. Wlion she had goue some distance down tlie branch she rode into the water and followed its descending course fur a fev/ steps, making her horse touch its sides nnd leave foot prints in that direction, nud then turned up the "tresin and rode above the placent which the en tered it, without leaving a trace, and back to where Logan was concealed. She told him to mount and speed away, while his pursuers were going in n contrary dircctiou down the ravine. Ho did so, and got n long distance out of sight, and again thought himself out of tho roach of danger, when in a valley just in front of him he saw fifty braves coining up the hill to meet him. They were some of those who were returning from the pursuit of his people. Ho changed his direction und tried to escape, hut liis poor horse was too much exhausted to lienr him with sufficient speed. With savage yells they plunged their rowels into their horses' sides nml gained upon him. As the foremost approached within goodshootingdistancc, Logan turned suddenly and sent n bullet through his hrniu. Then loading n- he galloped on. he soon made another bite the dust : nnd then anoth er. and another, until four were strewn along the plain. Just then, however, ns he was again re loading. liis horse stumbled nnd fell, nna tlie hand rushed upon him before he bad well recovered from tlie shock. He wo* shot with bullets nnd arrows, nud gashed with tomahawks, and pierced with lauccs; notwithstanding ail which he ruse nmi 1 his foes, nml with his clubbed rillc and hunting-knile, lie piled orouml him five prostrate bodies, and fell with his bock upou their corpse*, nnd expired .-till fighting. He was scalped, nud hundreds of war riors held a great war dunce over him. Thus Logan Fontancllc departed, and his noble spirit was followed to the spirit land hy the sigh and lamentations of his nation and the syi and aspirations of the brave of every land. tlrdtnsr, - ,. .. | U» .<1 Oril')' 7' < s7’t 31 COTTON STAftli.
