liim by a vote of one hundred and ten to forty
two. The minority vote was mostly a partisan
vote. The exculpation was based on the disbe
lief of Sweeny's testimouy and a distrust of
Triplett's. This decision goes a good way to
ward destroying the case agaiust Gilbert,which
rests almost entirely on the testimony of these
two witnesses. It is also a severe blow at the
action of the committee, whose intelligence or
impartiality is greatly impugned by it.
WASHINGTON , March 1, 1857.
The Senate sat until a very late hour on
Saturday night and finished up two more of
the Appropriation bills, namely : A small De
ficiency bill and the Legislative, Judicial and
Executive bill, amounting to about $6,000,-
000.
The House closed its proceedings on the In
vestigation. As soou as it met in the morn
ing Mr. I'd wards having resigned, nothing re
mained to be done but to expel Tripiett and
Simonton, which was done, the Committee and
House coolly throwing them away after using
thecn, like two sucked oranges.
More Border Ruffianism in Kansas !
ST. LOUIS. Wednesday, Feb. 25, 1857.
The Jefferson City correspondent of The St.
Louis Democrat, learns from the passengers
from Kansas to-night that a serious difficulty
had arisen between Gov. Geary and Judge
Sberrod, growing out of the refusal of the
former to appoint the latter Sheriff, as desired I
by the Legislature. Shorrod had avowed his |
intention to kill the Governor, and, meeting 1
him shortly afterward in the street, spat iu his ;
face
Geary did not resent this, but his friends ;
got up an indignation meeting on Thursday, |
the 10th, which Sheriff Jones, Judge Sherrod
and others attempted to brake up, when a con- [
tiict ensued, in which Sherrod shot Mr. Shep- j
pcnl, one of Gov. Geary's friends, four times,
killing him, and wounding two others. Mr. I
Joues, the Governor's Secretary, then shot;
Sherrod, the ball passing through his head and
killing him instantly. Very great excitement i
existed at Lecompton, and a general fight was i
anticipated that night. Gov. Geary's resi- j
dunce was guarded by United States troops.
ST. LOUIS, THURSDAY, Feb. 26, 1857.
Mr. Sherrod or Sherrard i 8 the man who
was appointed by the Court to fill the vacaucy
occasioned by Sheriff Jones's resignation, and
to wliem Gov. Geary refused to grant a com- 1
mission, on the ground of his habitual drunk-1
tailless. The Westport correspondent of The
llepublican says that Sherrod did not spit in i
tin- Governor's face, but called him a liar, \
cow ard and scoundrel. The remainder of the j
report is not yet corroborated, nor is it contra
dicted. We look for letters lroru Lecompton
tonight.
ST. LOUIS, Saturday, 28, 1857.
Accounts from Lecompton state that Gov.
Geary, having visited the Territorial Legisla
ture, was assaulted at the door by Sheriff Slier
rod. While leaving, Sherrod insulted Geary ,
and spit oil him. He had arms, and it was
supposed it was a plot to assassinate the Gov- j
eruor ; but be was prevented from using his
arms.
The Council condemn the outrage by reso-'
lotion, while the House fully sustains Sherrod. j
A law has passed both branches to punish 1
rebellion with death. All resistance to Ter- :
ritorial law or authority is declared rebellion; j
Gov. Geary fears assasination, and sent yes- ;
terdav for the troops at Tccumseh to remain ;
l ure for his protection. A detachment of j
dragoons have gone to arrest Capt. Walker. J
ST. LOUIS, Saturday, Feb. 28, 1857.
The latest advices from Kansas state that j
Sherrod was not killed, and that the Mr. Jones
who was arrested was not the Governor's Sec
retary. lie had been held to bail in $5,000.
RAILROAD PICKPOCKETS.—On Monday even
ing as C. L. WARD, Esq., of Towanda, was
on bis way up from Philadelphia in " lightning :
line," on a visit to Wheatland, he had his
|octet book with its contents, stolen by some
of the "light fingered gentry." There have been
a great many depredations of this kind com
mitted on the railroad, of late, and there is
no doubt that a gang of pickpockets, artfully
disguised, travel with the cars, mix in the crowd
at the depots, pjck'pockets, and then disappear
with the train oa which they came.— ligtrris-

Mr. Gregg, who has been so suddenly cut off. in a land
