I will 'begin by saying that the appearance of the i assailants wai most despicable, for they jcamo dirty, torn and in their shirt sleeves, the better to show their origin.' ' ll was their aim to secure me alive, in order to murder me without ihe rhuich; but not having sue ceeded they attempted to kill me within the church,- Many were led to believe it, when they had by repeated blows felled Paoli to the gronud j for believing him to be me thny said, "this is the very man." Another scheme of theirs was to blow out the lights. py turning the gas kejs, for by so doing from their concerted plan, they would have more easily succeeded in getting possession of me, seizing at the same time, every one present, mostly ladies and children. , But man proposes and God disposes. It was not possible to turn Ihe gas key, nor so easily to capture me Having rid myself of my first assailant by throwing him over the pulpit, I took off my ! cloak, and brandishing the chair which had served me as an orator, I defended my poetj as a true Italian crusader. I think that many of this gang will remember for some time , this passage of the Italian missionary's lec , lure. ..Having a pulpit about 12 feet wide, , wilh the stairs exposed, facing the church, f and compelled to defend it against more than 60 savages, was rather a difficult laidc. An artillety sergeant, who now enjoys the sym pathy of all parties, to the great shame of . the policemen, (who were standing by as idle speclatore) leaped from these stairs, and ; succeeded in defending with me my citadel. After the first attack, Paoli, who was at the church door, was enabled to reach the stairs; and, having snatched a stick from one of the assailant's bands, used it in every direction, and we were enabled to retain the liberty of our platform for more than twenty-five min , ulc. , But again a gang of the outward assailants, , to the number of more thnn seven hundred, rushed: into the church. This is owing to another unpardonable mistake of the police j the stairs and parapet wore assailed with re newed violence. The artillery sergeant feel lug his equilibrium fail, clung to Paoli, who, amid the great throng of assailants, could no .longer mancevre his slick; meanwhile two of (he savages had seized Paoli to overthrow , him from the stairs; he cried out to me 'Gavazzi, help me." 1 abandoned the front of the pulpit and with a desparate blow of the bench which 1 held in my hand, fell upon the bead of on of the two assassins, .which caused bim to bound from the stairs. .1 was reluming to the front, while some other assassins having gained the ground I bad abandoned to save my friend, lifted me from my feet and precipitated me headlong out of Ihe pulpit, fiom a height of more than fifteen feet; This was to have been the hour of my death, and could have been. The falling with such violence might have sufficed to crush my skull; but God was there to protect his poor, bnt confident servant. I fell on floor of enemies' heads and shoulders, and it ' was afterwards raid lhat as I was of iron disposition, I weighed also as iron ilself ; but I sustained no wound from my fall.. The crowd then dispersing, I found myself stretch ed out on the ground, with a legion of sava: ge over me, overjoyed at being able to slay me.! I then received a kick on my chin, W hich has produced a slight wound, and a contusion on the jaw; as the great crowd prevented the use of sticks, thej endeavored Id supply It with their feet. 1 perceived that nothing bnt a gigantic effort could save me, and I employed it accordingly, 1 rose in spite of them, and by blows opened a passage to the stairease which leads to the subterra neous place where the Sunday Schools arei and having met assassins on the stairs. 1 overcame them ; the last, who from his size impeded my passage as it were a barricade, end threatened me with his lurge stick, cal ling me by th'J vilest names; I very coolly rolled down the slaiff, and jumping over him, leached ihe entry of the Sunday School. ' 4 Fortunately Ihe tchool was dark ; having . examined it in the morning I became ac quainted with its structure. I look the left path, among an innumerable quantity of ben ches, while the savages, who were still pur suing me, were obliged to delay before they could ifacn the door. It was then I heard theeryof Paoli, "Goa help me," which led ine to believe (hat he was assaulted and bea ten agaiu by lha assassins. Being eft half dead, he would have been killed by the peo ple had not an unforeseen hand conveyed him to the subterraueous school, where he found himself, as it were, miraculously avod from a certain death. After five or six minutes of fatal suspense, some one of the police came. .The lights were again lit, but this did not prevent ihe assailants from breaking all the windows of the school, by throwing large atones, one of which hit Paoli ou lha breast wune ur.- Douglass was examiuinz his wounds.

Advices fiom Suit Lake to the 30ih of April have been received. ' Governor Brigham Young has issued a proclamation ordering out an armed fmce to reconnoitre "a horde of Mexicans." who had entered Utah lerrilo ry lor ihe purpose of inciting Ihe Indians to make aggressions on the inhabitants. The Governor is also down in a savage manner upon apostates. He advises them not to courl persecution, lest they gel too much of it. ' The Governor buists out in indignant denunciation nf the apostates, and relates one of his dreams, as follows : Who broke the road to these valleys 1 Did this little nasty Smith ami his wife? No; they stayed in St. Louis while wo did it, peddling ribbons and kissing the gentiles. I know what they have done here; they have asked exojbiaut prices for their nasty stink ing ribbons, (voices, 'that's true ') We broke the roads to this country. Now you Glad denitcs, keep your tongues still lest sudden destruction come upon you. I will tell you a dream that t had last night. I dreamed that I was in the midst of a people who were dressed in rags and tatters ; they had turbans upon their heads, and these were also hang' ing in tatters. The rags were of many col ors, and when the people moved, they were all in motion; their object in this appeared tube to attract attention ; said they lo me, 'we are Mormons, Brother Brighaui.' No, you are not, I replied. 'But we have been,' said they, and began lo jump, and caper about and dance, and their rags of many col ors were all in motion, to attract Ihe attention of the people. I said you are no Sainis, you are a disgrace to them. Said they, 'we have been Mormons.' By and by along came some mobocrats, and they greeted them with, 'how do you do, sir, I am happy lo see you! Thoy kept on that way for an hour. 1 full ashamed of them, for they were in my eyes a disgrace to Mormonism. Then t saw two ruffians, whom I knew lo bo robbers and murderers, and Ihey crept into a bed where one of my wives and child, ren were. 1 said, you that call yourselves brethren, tell me is this Ihe fashiun among you? They said O, they are good men, Ihey are gentlemen 1 Wilh that 1 took my large bowie knife that 1 used to wear as a bosom pin in Nauvoo, and cut one of their throats from ear to ear, saying, 'go to hell across lots.' The other one said, ')ou dare not servo me so.' I instantly sprang at him, sei zed him by the hair of the head, and bringing him down, cut his Ibroat, and sent him after his comrade ; then tuld them both, if they would behave themselves Ihey should yet live, but if they did not I would unjnint their necks. At this I awoke, f say rather than that apostataes shall flourish here, I will un shea'.h my botcit knife, and lonquer or die.- (Great commotion in the congregation, and a simultaneous burst of feeling assenting lo the declaration ) Now, you nasty apostates, clear out, or judgment mil be put lo the line, and righteousness lo Ihe plummet. (Voices gener ally, 'go it, go it.') you say it is rip,ht raise your hands. (All hands up.) Let me call upon the Lord to assist us in this, and every good work.

Kirkbride, Dr. Evans and severul physicians and olher scientific gentlemen, and the stu dents of the Medical class. The phrenological developments of the head of the muulerer, were characteristic of the 'man. The head was large, being over 22 inches in circumference. The perceptive laculties were strong and the reflective weak Benevolence and other organs, which are Ihe indications of a good disposition, were found to be very poorly developed, while selfish nesr and dimness wore large, and cautious ness was well developed. Secreliveness wa large, and the animal oigaus, such as com bativeness and destrucliveness, wero enor mous. The base of the brain was very large. The forepart of the head, was very small, and the back very large indicating sensuality and cruelly. The Professor styled Ihe cranium of the deceased, a "bull dog head."

There has been much negotiation on the subject be tween this company and the Sunbury and Erie rail road company. The latter com pany are, however, firm and determined on this subject. They have but one opinion on the matter, and that is, that they will construct, and hold in their own power, every inch ol the road between Sunbury & Erie. The extension of the Susquehanna route would certainly be a wise measure, in case the Sunbury &. Erie, either failed or refilled to make the road. We presume the making of the two roads is not contem plated or seriously thought of. The Sun bury &Erie company might, with equal or more propriety, extend their rond from this place to Harrisburor, on the opposite side of the river. The Lycoming Gazette thinks the terminus of the Susquehanna road at Williamsport, is more important to that place, than all the pro peclive railroads. EDITOR'S) TAULl; Dnalneaa Kollrea.

PENNSYLVANIA. our paper of the 4th inst., we furnish ed our readers with some statistics in relation to the coal measures in the Shamokin coat region, and the probable amount of coal that would be mined and taken to market next year. These calculations may, per haps, seem extravagant to those who have paid little or no attention to these matters, or who have never examined into the sta tistics of our neighboring coal regions, for the facts which justify us in our conclu sions. Great as are the treasures of Cali. fornia and Australia, yet they are more than equalled by the coal mines of Penn sylvania. It is universally admitted that England owes her great wealth and com mercial supremacy, to her coal and iron. We need only look to our neighbors of Schuylkill county asm evidence ol what can be done by the developement of the great mineral resources ot this county. ! Even in 1810, the population ol Schuylkill was but little more than Northumberland. In 1850, she came near rivaling her neigh bor Berks, of which she is an offspring, and should she continue in the same progressive ratio, she will strip the laurels from both old mother Jterks aim .Lancaster, at ine next census.

The itnzt proprietor! at Pottsville, not content wilh the exhorbilant charge ol $ 2 87 fare, between Northumberland and this place to Pottsville, amounting to7 cU. per mile, have commenced the business, not exactly ot levying mail, but or levy ing contributions on the baggage ol passen gers who are so unfortunate as to be com pelled to travel in their line. The route, though mountainous, is a pleasant one, the road is good and the scenery wild and ro mantic. About twenty five yean ago, Mr John Weaver of Pottsville, formerly ol this place, established the first daily' line of coaches over this route. - The fare then, when stage fare was thirty per cent higher, every where, than now, was only $2 25, and the time occupied about one third less Some years alter, Mr. Weaver sold out his interest, to other parties. Since that time the route has been used as an experimental one, to try the patience and pockets of the travelling community. A few days since a gentleman (a clergyman) and two young ladies, bound from Philadelphia to this place, had their trunks closely examined at Pottsville. As their trunks somewhat ex ceeded the 50 pounds allowed, as most of them will, the young ladies were taxed $2 50 and the gentleman 75 cents extra.' The proprietors, no doubt, thinking them selves extremely liberal in not charging them (or the extra time they kept them on the road. But a brighter, better day is dawning. In August next, the Philadelphia & Sunbu ry rail road company will have their cars running as far as Mt. Carniel. A new con trolling power will put a diflercnl face up on matter. The time of travelling will be reduced (rom 12 to 13 hours, to 6 or 7, and the I'liilaJclphhi morning mails will reach us before sundown of the same day. fjy The ErieGaaetla has been enlarged and otherwise Improved.

Until ISM, the only outlet for the coal of Schuylkill, was the canal. In that ear the Reading rail road was completed, and the coal carried over the road, that ear, was S50 tons. In 1853, the amount of coa! carried over the Reading road was over 1,600,000 Ions. The amouut of coal sent to market by the canal in TSl-O, amounted to 15'2,291 tons. It was not until alter the rail road was completed, and entered into the field of competition with its great rival, the canal, for the coal trade, that the rapid progress of the coal business commenced. Since that period its results have exceeded the calcu lations ol its rrost sanguine friends. Schuyl- ill county is dotted over with thriving ilianes and a teemimr and industrious no- 0 i ulation. The natural advantages ol Northumber land county are no less, and in some instar. ces superior to Schuylkill. The facilities lor mining are greater, and the avenues to market more numerous. Besides, the in exhaustible beds of iron ore and limestone will create a home market fur a vast amount of coal, lor the numerous furnaces and rol ling mills in the valley ol the Susquehanna. It is fair to estimate, that, for every 90,000 tons of coal, one hundred and twenty fami lies will be necessary at the mines. This according to our previous estimate ol the amount of coal tbat will most probably be mined next year, will require the follow- ng number of families at the works of each ol tHe following companies: Families.

The lormer negotiations, with a house in Loudon, we have been told, failed in consequence of letters having gone out in the same ship with the agent, which re flected severely upon the character and standing of the officers of the company Whatever may be the issue of Mr. Fallon's mission, there is no question but what the road will be made. Should Mr. Fallon Iail in negotiating the bonds, a new organi zation ol the board will, no doubt, take place and the city councils will then, we presume, make the subscription of $2,000, 000, and there are other capitalists ready to take hold. 1 tic construction ol ine road from Sunbury to F.rie is a fixed fact.
