JBfacclkuwoiiN. AMUSING ANECDOTE. A few years ago, towards the dusk of eve ning, a strauger in a travelling sulkey was leisure!; pursuing his wav towards a tav ern situated near the foot of a tnountuin, in one of the Western States. A little in ad vance ofltitn a negro, returning from plough, was singing the favorite Ethiopian melody •of “ Gwine down tn shin bone alley. Long time ago.” Thestraoger bailed him, “ hallo !•—un cle ! —you ! —snow-Ball !” “ Salt r” said blacky, holding up his hor ses. “ Is that the Half-way House ahead, ponder ?” “ No, sah, dal Massa Billy Lemon’s O -W-l!’ “ Hotel, eh —Billy Lemon ? “ Yes, sah—yon know Mass Billy f he used to lib al de motif o’ Cedar cii< lo—he done move now do——keeps monsous nice lavun now, 1 tell you !’ " Indeed I” “ Yes sah, you stop dah dis ebenin 1 spec ! all spectable gentlemen put up dah. You < haw backuh mass ?” “ Yes, Sambo, here’s real Cavendish for you.” “ Tattkee, massa, tankee sah; Quash my name.” “ Quash, eh “ Yes, sah, atyour service. Ooh,” grunt ed the delighted African, “ dis is nice ; he better an green fiber; tankee sail, tan kee.” “ Well, Quash, what kind of a gentleman is Mr. Lemon “ Oh, he nice man, sah, nmnsous nice man* sah, nmnsous nice man ; empeitan genplemtin in de fits stile, and B take care t)v de houses. I'longs to him, and do 1 say it, Mass Billy mighty clebbey man; be funny too —teil heap o’ stories bout ghosses, and spirits, notwithstandin he (raid o;i ’em, he self do, my ’pinion. “ Afraid of Ghosts, eh said the trav eller musing. “ Well, go ahead Mr. Quash ; as its getting late, I’ll tarry with this Mr. Lemon io-night.” •' Y'es, sah, gee up, liea ! go long live ly and setting olfat a brisk trott, follow ed by the traveller, the musical Quash a £ain broke out in “ Gwine down to shin-bone alley- ” The burthen “ Long time ago” was ta ken up by some one apparently in an adja cent corn-field, which occasioned Quash to prick up his ears with some surprise; he continued hower with “ Dah 1 meet ole Joliny Gladden.” And the same voice again responded from the field, “ Long time ago !” “ Who dat said the astonished negro, checking suddenly his horses and looking round on every side for the cause of his surprise. “Oh never mind ; drive ahead snow ball, it’s some ofyour masters spirits, 1 sup pose.” Quash, in a very thoughtful mood, led the way to the tavern without uttering ano ther word. Halting before the door, the stranger was very soon waited upon by the obliging Mr. Lemon, a bustling talka tive gentleman, who greeted bis customer with, “ Light, sir, light—here, John! Quash —never mind your umbrella sir—here, Qnash, take off that rug —give me your whip, sir, take off that trunk—walk in, sir —John, take out the chair box—come, sir —and carry this horse to the stable—do you prefer him to stand on a dirt floor, sir ?” “ If you please, sir ; he’s rather particu lar about his lodgings.’ “ Carry him to the lower stable, Quash, and tend to him well—l always like to see horses well tended, and this is a noble crit ter, too, continue 1 the landlord, slapping him on his back. “ Take care will you, ” said the horse. “ What the d■ - —I exclaimed the land- lord starting back. “ A’one ts ytntr familiarity," said the horse, looking spitefully around at the as tonished tavern keeper. “Silence Belzabub, said the traveller, caressing the animal ; and turning to the landlord, he observed— 4 You must excuse him, sir, he’s rather an aristocratic horse— the effect of education sir.” “ He’s the devil sir.” “ Wo hoa, Belzabub ! loose the trases, Quash, what are you staring at ? he wont eat you.” Come Landlord,' said Belzabub, “ / want iny oats." Quash scattered—the landlord backed tip into the porch, and the traveller was fain to jump into his vehicle and drive round in search of the stables, himself. Having succeeded to his satisfaction in disposing of his horse, he returned to the tavern. Anon supper came on—the eggshad all apparently young chickens in them—th? landlord was in confusion at such a morti fying circumstance, and promised the trav eller amends from a cold pig—which as he inserted the carving fork into it, uttered a piercing squeal w hich was responded to by a louder one from the landlady. Dow n went the knife and fork, and the cold perspira tion began to grow in large beads upon the forehead of the poor landlord as be stood looking fearfully at the gruiiter ; his atten tion was soon taken, however, by voices from without, calling— “ Hilloa ! landlord !” “Aye; coming, gentlemen— moretrav ellws—do help yourself, sir.” “ Landlord.” “Corning, gentlemen—here, John, a light—bring a light to the door—Sally, wait on the gentleman’—and out the land lord bounced, followed by John with lights; but soon returned with a look ofdisappoint ment ; he declared that there was no living being w ithout. The voices called again— and the landlord alter going out returned a second time declaring his belief that the whole plantation was haunted that night by evil spirits. The stranger presently arose from the ta ble and withdrew his chair to the fire, hav ing made a pretty hearty supper from the eggs and young porker, their cries to the contrary notwithstanding. That night, rumor saith, Mr. Billy Lem on slept with the bible under his head, and kepta candle burning; and those who pass there to this day, may, upon close examina- I tion discover the hee ls of’ old horses shoes; peering over the door casement, as a bul wark against witches, hobgoblins and allo ther evil spirits. Having ascertained the name of his guest,i in the morning, mine host proceeded to make out his bill— “ Mr. J. S. Kenworthy, To William Lemon, Dr. See.” This same Mr. Kenworthy, was recently a passenger on board the steamboat Colum bia, from Norfolk to Washington City, w hen the violent altercation took place in of the berths, between three or four dilier ent individuals, for precedence. He is said to be something of a wag, and withal one of the most accomplished Y entriloqnistsol the present day. General Bennett, of the New York Morning Herald, says Col. Webb has again knocked him down in Wall street. Ile gives quite a glowing account of the affair. He says—“ As soon as I found mvselfattacked, I turned upon him. His superior personal strength, which God Almigh ty in his wisdom has given him, was altogether too powerful for me to contend with.” lie says further—“ As to intimidating me or changing my course, the thing cannot Le done. Neither Webb nor any other man shall,or can,intimidate me. 1 tell the honest truth in my paper, and leave the consequences to God.—Could 1 leave them in better bands I 1 may be attacked—l may be assailed—l may be killed—l may be murdered, — But 1 never will succumb—l nev er will abandon the cause of truth, morals, and virtue. It is not and never was in James Wat son Webb to intimidate or frighten from the ex ercise of his rights James Gordon Bennett, if the public authorities do not choose to protect the peace of the city, and secure peaceable men in the enjoyment of their rights, I shall carry arms for my own protection. It is pain fid—it is shocking—it is lamentable in a civili zed community—where we have a hundred spires pointing to Heaven, which is inhabited bv Christian men and Christian women, to be obli ged to resort to deadly weapon for the protec tion of life and existence.” NEW-BEDFORD, MAY 28.—Late from the Sandwich Islands—Another Massacre— Loss o f the Ship Independence.— The ship A washonks, Captain Proctor, arrived at Fal mouth, on Saturday last, 115 days from the Sandwich Islands. Capt. Proctor, gives the particulars of the massacre of another crew by the natives of the South Sea Islands. The details as furnished are as follows. “ The Schooner Honduras, Capt. Scott of Boston, and the Thetis, Capt. Rogers, of Honolulu, (Sand wich Islands,) sailed Irom the latter place on the 9th of May, 1835, for a shelling voyage a mong the isles of the North Pacific Ocean. Shortly after leaving, a mutiny took place on board the Thetis, in which Capt. Rogers, and his mate, were killed by having their heads cut off while asleep on the deck with an ax. The trading master of the schooner, hearing the alarm, came on deck with his cutlass, and after fighting for some time, succeeded in killing the ringleader, when he took command of the ves sel, and reached the Island of Ascension, where the Honduras had before arrived. The Hon duras left soon after fora cruise amongthe neigh boring Islands, and on the 23d of August, hav ing her foremast carried away, and being in want of provisions, went into Strong’s Island, one of the Kingsmill group, lying in lat. 5 12 N. long. 162 58 East. On the day of her ar rival while the vessel was filled with people and the Captain and eight men were on shore, the natives commenced an attack, in which 13 men, including the Captain and the party on shore, were murdered. The mate, Mr. YVilliani Wil liams, with the assistance of a boy, succeeded in driving the natives from the schooner and worked her out of the harbor, although she grounded several times. He arrived at Ascen sion on the 3d of September, in great distress, but shipped a native crew and continued the voyage. The Honduras and Thetis, both ar rived at Honolulu on the 4th of January. The ship Independence, Capt. Brayton, of Nantucket, with 2100 barrels Sperm Oil, was lost on Starbuck’s Island in the month of Jan uary last. The mate and part of the crew had arrived at Tahita, where he had chartered a vessel and was to return for the purpose ofsav ing the Oil. The Awoshonks was put in command of Capt. Proctor, by J. C. Jones, Consul at Oubu, and ordered home. She has several passengers from the Islands, among whom is the Rev. Jo seph Goodrich, lady and five cnildren ; Mrs. P. A. Brinsmade, two children anj servant; Mrs. R. Johnson,and Miss Mary Warren; all of the Sandwich Island Mission, and two natives of the Islands, and several in the steerage. Latest From Mexico.—The New Orleans Courier of the 29th ult. says,—“A letter, under date of Tampico, May 17th, received by the schooner Ataianto, arrived this morning, states that the capture of Santa Anna and his officers had reached there via Mattmoras. The report was, that himself and his officers had been shot by the Texians. This, as might be expected, caused a great deal of excitement against all for eigners, v> ho apprehending some serious results from an infu dated mob, waited on the Commad dant, who assured them that he had taken meas ures to suppress any breach of the peace. An En glish sloop of war off Tampico, on the eve of sailing, had been requested by the British Consul to postpone her departure fora few days. ‘•A postcript to a letter of the 18th represents that order had been restored. “A respectable commercial house of this city received this morning a letter from Tampico, bearing the same date as the preceding one, an nouncing that an extraordinary courier had ar rived there, with the intelligence of the capture of Santa Anna, and the defeat of one division of his army. The other four divisions, commanded by Generals (Jrrea, Gotta, Filisola, and Sesma, were marching on the Texians. These four di visions amount to six thousand men. It is fur ther stated that an additional force of four thou sand troops were to leave San Louis, to join the forces already in Texas.”— Sav. Georgian. It is rumored that the mail stage on th Florida route from north to south has also been assaulted by the Indians, and that it has in consequence, been for the present discon tinued. If this is so, all mail communication between the stateseastand west of the Creek territory is cut off, except by awestern rout. In anticipation of such event, the Post Master General has di ret ted all the mails from the north for New Orleans, Mobile, and Post Offices generally in that section, to be sent from Baltimore or Washington over the Cumberland road to Wheeling, and thence down the Ohio and Mississippi rivers by the steamboat mail lines now in operation. This is a communication that cannot be interrupted, and although circu itous will insure at least a safe and certain intercourse between the north and New- Orleans. We regret to state tnat an unfortunate occur rence which took place on the road between Tal botton and Columbus, by which Mr. Jesse Dick inson, a member of the Washington Guards, from Washinnton, Wilkes county, lost his life. Il ap pears that while the company were on their mrrch as above stated, during a heavy shower, Mr. Dickinson took shelter uncer an old shed, where he had been but a few moments, when the wind prostrated the entire tenement, burying him amidst its frugmeuts. Upon his companions’ throwing off the loose boards, a large beam was discovered to have struck him across the neck, aud life was entirely extiuct. REMOY’AL OF THE INDIANS. Au animated discussion arose on this sub ject day before yesterday, in the House of Representatives. Mr. Everett of \ ermont was the leader of the opposition on this oc casion, anti made bitter accusation against the The attack of the phalanx which supported Everett was promptly and ably met, ami effectually re pulsed, by Messrs. Haynes, Speight, Mann, and Glascock. The latter particularly ex plored the whole ground assumed by Mr. Everett against the administration invindi cation of the Indians side of the question. The fact and arguments of Mr. E. were alike shown to be untenable. YVedid not suppose it possible that there could arise in a dissension upon the question or removing the Indians, ac cording to a treaty, whichhad received the full sanction of all the authorities of our Government, and especially at a moment when it is seen that their continuance with in the States, subjects the whole circumja cent country to the terror of the scalping knife and tomahawk. That the public may understand the feeling under which opposi tion to the President!* arrayed in Congress, we quote the following passage of a letter, written from this city, and published m the Journal of Commerce, received yesterday. Those letters are from the pen of the hired writers of the federal party in Congress. The members speak their feelings much more distinctly through these channels than they can venture to do through prop er person. The sentimnnts of the hil lings and their employers are the same. Here are the fabrications by which the Seminoles are justified by the organs of federalism. “ 1 have no doubt that the cause of the Seminole war will be found in the fact that this Government after screwing and jewing the Indians for remuneration, in lauds, for alledging depredations, set up a claim up on them for their children begot of negro women. Many runaway slaves took re refuge among the Seminoles, and all those the Indians were made to pay for. It hap pened that some of the women had inter married with the Seminoles, and in one or two instances with their chiefs. A claim was set up by the American citizens, the owners of the runaway slaves, for the ofl spring, upon the principles of partus se cptiluvrenlrem." This Government recog nized the claim, and sent agents into the Seminole country to kidnap the children of the Seminoles thus claimed as slaves. Our Secretary of War ordered the movement, The Government was advised that this measure would lead to hostilities, but it was persisted in. “ Those facts have already been stated on the floor of the House, and have not been contradicted. But, in a day or two, they will be proved. YY'hen the much boasted American chivalry needs employ ment, one would think that it would be di rected to the aid of the gallant ami injured Seminoles. But it so happens that the whole of the available chivalry of the country, regular and volunteer, has been sent against them, in number sufficient to eat them up ; and with a result proportion ate to the justice of their cause. Our for ces have been beaten, mocked, scoffed at, and made the laughing-stock of the world. When the documents and developments to which I allude shall be published, this Go vernment will stand before the nations of the earth, as the most faithless and contemp tible that ever held a control over the desti nies of man. “We shall see what we shall see. But an observer of the signs of the times will not fail to mark our southwestern border as the theatre of long and bloody contests, in which we may have to contend with Mexi cans, Indians and negroes.” It will be remembered that Mr. Calhoun, in referring to this subject some time since in the Senate, charged the war to the wrongs committed by our Government, and the Indian agents employed by it. It must have been mortifying to him that the hono rable Dixon 11. Lewis, who has been almost ruined by his devotion to him, came out yesterday and vindicated the administration from all the false aspersions of its foes on this subject. Gen. Glascock, in his noble and eloquent speech, completely repelled the calumnies against Gen. Thompson, the agent who fell the first victim to Powell. We vindicated him when the first accusation was made a gainst the agents by Mr. Calhoun. We knew Gen. Thompson in Congress ; and had every reason to believe him a humane and honest man. In his politics he leaned towards the Nullifiers, and this shows that Mr. Calhoun, where even a friend’s fame stands between him and the gratification of his revengeful feelings to the President will readily sacrifice all the generous emo tions to the adversary passion.
