A E,QY ONE HAN BILLED ! Laet Saturday evening a number of tc laborers engaged at work on the line of the Delaware, Lackawana and West trn Ivailroad, near this place, got into a fijht at the Liquor Shanty, of Mr. Pat- in k Brown, situated in the lower end of town. The following are all the particu lars we could gather in relation to this sad affair I About 5 o'clock in the after noon a number of Irishmen met at the tdiop of Brown, and after partaking pret ty freely of whiskey, two of them got into a fight, when Peter Brown separated the belligerents and put the offending man out of the bouse. All was quiet till about 7 o'clock in the evening, when an attack was made upon the Shanty, the door and windows were broken in, and the inmates, five in number, were beaten in a shameful manner. On Sunday morning last, Mr. Patrick Brown, one of the injured men, died. Esquire Burnett, summoned a jury of twelve men, who held an inquest upon the body, and returned as their verdict that 44 the deceased came to his death from blowB inflicted on the head by a person or persons unknown." Twelve Irishmen supposed to bo con cerned in the murder of Brown, were ar rested on Sunday and lodged in jail to await their bearing, which will take place Id a day or two. Brown's remains were taken to New burgb, New York, for interment, on Mon-. day last. Census of Kansas. A complete enu meration of the voting population in Ktn eas Las been obtained.

T,he Chairman of tho-State Executive GommiUcv'ot tile or3ginalN'ativo Amer ican Organization, Peter SIcen Smith, is; out in a lengthy communication in favor of an open American Convention, to be held at Ilarrisburg, sometime during the coming summer, for the purpose of nom inating candidates for President and Vice President of the United States, who- will represent the American party and its principles. In this connection we may ndd that tho " Natives" are organizing clubs in Philadelphia with a view to the support of Commodore Stockton, of New Jersey, for President and Kenneth Ray- ner, or some other distinguished South erner, for Vice President. o Mr. Edwakd L.

JBasion Whig. Buenos Ayrean Affairs. A letter from Buenos Ay res, dated 2Gtli of December, is published in the New York Post, which gives some mat ters of iuterest iu that countr'. The vic tory gained by Gen. HoitNOSover the in vaders of Buenos Ajres has saved that province from being forced into a confed eration with the other Argentine provin ces. Gen. UrQUIZA, President of the Confederated Government, is supposed to bve instigated the invasion. He has made the Buenos Ayreans an offer of per manent peace, which has been accepted. The peace thus concluded recognises the province of Buenos Ayres as a distinct aud independent State. Mr. Tedex, resi dent Minister from the United States Gov ernment to the Argentine Confederation, arrived at Buenos Ayrcs" in October. After spending a few weeks in town he proceeded to Parana, the seat of Govern ment. The Germantown, Commander LynCH, is at Buenos Ayres. The wheat crop is said to be unusually abundant and of good quality. Vegetables are scarce aud high. The wool clip is very large, but it is all going to Europe, and in the same direction tho hides, tallow, bones, and horns are going also. The low prices of fered for these articles in the United States markets is the cause. The order of American Mechan ics, in Pennsylvania, has issued an ad dress to the public, in which there is much force and truth, and in which they say The people, particularly the American Mechanics and workiugmen, ore ready t 1 j ;cnn partJ. Tbcy are not pposed to any association calculated to teach the srrcat truths and inestimable blessings of A mericanism, but tbev are for "-ivin eve- ry American tnendly to the cause, wheth- jer he be Know-Nothing or Know-All, an opportunity 10 co operate witu ms leuow Americans at large, in favor of the great leading principles upon which the body ot yvmencan people cordially agree. Bight. Mr. Killinger has introduced a bill in the Senate looking to the publi cation ot the laws in the newspapers, in stead of the old fogy pamphlet-systera.- We hope he will be backed up by the press of the State, u he bill should by all means become a law.

Cattle Dying- by Starvation. The Winchester (Clarke county, Ky.) Chronicle mentions several instances of cattle dying in that county, from starva tion. Mr. Marion Christian has lost four teen-head. Mr. Wm. Tate has lost five head, and Mr. Johnson Watts seven head of Cue steers. Cause, great scarcity of provenuer. A Hard Winter. The sheep in some of the Western wool-growing regions have suffered severely during the past winter the great drought of last autumn having destroyed their pasturage. The Cleve land (Ohio) Leader, of Monday week, says: ' "The farmers of Carroll county have lost a very large number of sheep. One man's flock in that county has suffered a diminution of live hundred head. Almost every sheep grower has sustained loss. Ihe clip of the great wool region of Ohio will be considerably reduced from that of last year." A Smash vn. ID the forepart of last week, the third floor in Butcher's mill, in Mooreland, Montgomery county, gave way, and precipitated 1500 bushels of rye into the tail-race, the floor above came near falling, also, it having a large quan tity of corn aud wheat on it. Much of the rye was wasted, which seems hard in these "hard limes." No person was in jured. JSST- Col. A. K. McCl ure, the Superin tendent of Public Printing, is a lucky dog.

'Iswis- burg Chronicle. Adjourned Court; r -There will be an adjourned. Court helcTaV this place on, he fourth day of April next, when an opportunity -will bo offered those persons who contemplate keeping Public House in the county to obtain License. II they neglect to obtain thcm,they will bo liable to indictment for keeping tippling House in case they sell Liquor. It has been the prac tice herctoforeto postpone the application for License until May Term, and sell liquor under the license of previous occupants of Public Houses. That cannot be done, and this adjourned Court has been appointed ex pressly to meet those cases, and it will only be necessary to call the attention of Land lords to thij fact, and they will doubtless avail themselves of the opportunity thus of fered to claim thoir Licenses.

' ' ; V Teachers5.- The Poolo Tragedy. - William Poole, the youug American' pucilist, who was recently set' upon and shot by a gang of assassins, of foreign birth, at Stanwix Hall, Broadway, N6w York, died of his wounds, at 5 o clock on Thursday morning, the 8th inst. Deceased was aged 33 years and 8 months, and was born in Susses, . J., K.,f n-nrf ;n "tfnw York 24 years. He was a butcher, bavin? succeeded his father in the Washington Market, and recently be came proprietor of the Bank Exchange, ,ir;lrino- nlacc on tho corner of Broad nn, Tfnward street. He leaves a wife and one child, a boy 9 years old, ,ri,n nm much distressed at their loss- Thc reports show that ho met his end calmly, and gave directions as to his fu neral, &c. ... Onlv a few minutes before expiring he remarked, with ereat distinctness of voice, ,4I think I am a goner. If I die, I die a true American; and what grieves me most is, thinking that I've been murdered by a set of Irish by Morrissey in particular." He gave directions to have his body o niif1 hv nhvsicians after death. Ho was J, J J also particular how he should appear in his coffin. He expressed a wish to be at tired in a suit of black clothes, with pat ent leather boots, and have a white collar folded down over his coat. He had, it seems a great horror of being interred (under ground,) and has been known to l IT. .1 turn away nis eyes, wuen uirt was mrown upon coffins, at funerals, he had been at tending. He requested that a deceased child of his, now buried iu Creeuwood Cemetery, be disinterred, and placed iu the same vault with him, upon his breast Five of his alleged murderers, viz John Morrissey, Charles Van Pelt, Cor nelius Linu, Patrick McLaughlin, Alias Paugene, and James Turner, have been arrested and are held in custody. The three first named are held as accomplices, and the two last as principals. Lewis Baker, who fired the fatal shot, and ap peared to be one of the most blood-thirs ty of the assassins, made his escape. He was a police officer, and is beleived to have been assisted in eluding arrest, by his bretheru of the craft. A reward of $500 is offered for his apprehension and con viction. He has been traced to Jersey City, where he managed to escape, and took refuge, as i3 supposed, somewhere in the vicinity of Spotswood. It is stated that he reached Amboy on Saturday in a boat rowed by two men, and offered 85, for a team to take him to Spotswood, which was only ten miles distant. He is reported to be fully armed and will des-pc-r'wv resist any attempt to arrest him. Baker, T'ur':r,- Morrissey and Mc Laughlin, are all under lijuic-tment for a nrevious attemntto murder Thomas i72?- the well known American Pugilist. It is to be hoped that this gang of assassins win now meet tne icnominious rare wuicu justice awards to those who deliberately destroy human life. Ihe funeral of Wm. Poole took place on Sunday last, and was attended by the largest concourse that ever assembled to perform the obsequies of a man who nev- er held official btation or distinguished himself by important public services. The streets in the vicinity of his residence in "jnristopner-street, tne large open space directly in front of his house, the windows, piazzas and roofs of the adja- tl f li a. 1 .1 1 tn r. ts ... s . AMn.f1wl fi.7V.tn tion, while Bieecher-street aud all the streets in New York and Brooklyn through wuicu tne procession passea, were nneu by an immense multitude of spectators, whose appearance and- demeanor were in tile highest degree respectable and decor- ous. Ihe iNew 1 ork limes accounts for this great popular out pouring, by the fact that Poole had a great many friends a- j the class to which ho belonged, comprising not only the fighting men and rowuies oi tne t-ity, out tne butcner.s, me- chanic3 and working men at large.

The deceased was dressed inblaclf, ac cording to his last request, with tho scarf of tho Order of United Americans laid a cross the body.

Wakcly, Methodist, formerly of Jersey city, who read the 90th Psalm, followed by an impressive address. Pursuit of Baker. Further Particulars. The mystery attending the whereabouts of Baker, who was concerned in the mur der of Wm. Poole, is solved, and an un heard of amount of corruption and infi delity of some of the New York officers disclosed, a number of them having been actually engaged in assisting his escape, and defeating the ends of justice. Judge Staurt, who suspected the true condition of things, instituted searching investiga tions, which resulted in tracing Baker to Jersey City, where he had been secreted, and whence he sailed on Saturday in the brig Isabella Jewett, for Palmas City, Canary Islands. It appears that by the aid of his friend, S. McLaughlin, of Jer sey City, he crossed over the ferry dis guised as a milkman, and was secreted in the house of Mr. L.'s hostler, where he remained several days, during which he read the accounts of the murder in the newspapers, and was frequently visited by his friends, including some of the New York officers. Judge Stewait, on ascer taining the fact, came over to Jersey City on Friday night, with a posse and visited the house in Barrow St., but through some treachery, Baker was forewarned, and escaped, so short a time previous, that they found his bed still warm, and blood stains from his wounds upon the sheets! They continued the search through the neighborhood without effect aud finallv returned to the city. It was subsequent ly ascertained that he was smuggled on board ihs Isabella Jewett, Uien Ijxng at Jersey City, waiting for fair weather to tan ior tne uanary j.sjuiius. j van- tain, alarmed at the dangerous character of his passenger, objected at first, but finally consented to take him upon re- ecu ing an extra fee from Baker's friends, She sailed with a fair wind on Saturday, but as her destination is 3000 miles off, a steamer can probably overtake her al- though she might not start in pursuit be- fore Monday next. Commodore Vand- crnnt s new steamer, tne "luagnona, wa? offered by that gentleman for the sum ol 20,000, but the city authorities being I 1 1 mt Vi f Pii 1 rt c flmm i..i.l.f t-r eirr ri...t a sum for the purpose, had not concluded to accept the offer, until better advised as to tne extent to wmcn tuey mignt law- fully go. If Baker ouce lands at Palmas he cannot be captured, unless the Spanish authorities choose to give him up. Judge Stuart has obtained trora the Quarantine at Staten Island abatch of let- tcrs which Baker had given a boatman to deliver to his friend, officer Linn, includ- ing letters to a Judc of one ot the citv courts, and another to his lawyer iu iSew York, in the latter of which he discloses all with regard to himself, but their con- tents are kept strictly private. Judge btuart has since been taking testimony a- gainst various pcr&ons suspected of being accessaries after the fad to the murder, and I . . . .

The Earl of Lucan and some other-officers have been invited to resign.., . Joseph Hume is dead much respect ed and regretted. Destitution in England had almost reached its height. From the combined curses of an unusually severe winter, un- usually dear prices for all descriptions of provisions and a total stagnation of trade, the poor aro in a deplorable condition. Many thousand laborers have been for weeks without food, excepting the supplies of charity. A riot of two or three days duration occurred in Liverpool, and in London some disturbance occurred among the unemployed. In other places much distress existed. At the sailing of tho Pacific a change for the better had taken place. A sudden thaw had set in, and business iirproved decidedly. Louis Napoleon seems determined to proceed to the Crimea. England and Austria have advised him to stay athome. It is said he has drawn up a plan of vest military strateg-, which he wishes to superintend. England and Austria think he had better leave it to his Generals. The Americans in Paris gave a grand ball in commemoration of Washington's birthday. Nearly all the members of tho diplomatic corps as well as the membera of the French government were present. The French papers mention that thy city of Catania in Italy, ha? been almost destroyed by an earthquake. The Imperial Palace at Prague, cue Residence of the ex-Emperor of Austria, has been destroyed by fire. Russia has declared war on Sardinia. It is stated, but not confirmed, that Tus cany has joiucd the Westren Powers, but Naples has not. There is nothing new from the Danube. Affairs before Sebastopol were un changed. A battle was fought at Eupa toria. On the 17th Gen. Liprandi with a torce about equal to, or perhaps a Ictt thousand superior to the "iurks. attacked them, and after four hours firing, retired beyond the range of shells from tho English ship, the aurks not pursuing Omar Pacha commanded. The Russians were in considerable force, 20,000 infant ry and 6000 cavalry. The loss of the Russians is put down at 500 men. Tho luruisn loss was liiconsuierable. It is belived that the importance of the battle is overestimated. I TMisi iKAnllini. X. 1 . r1 n 1 - .1 1 C topol, and the snow had almost disapeflr ed.
