Quitman. _of Illississippi—Charge of 79eaton—liis ../1 1., est 'Ordered. WiettiNoToN, Nov. 2J.—Messrs. Ed itors t In looking over your journal I find an article headed `•lnteresting Rumor." which states that it was rumored at Louis- ville, Ky., that the Marshal of Louisiana had tekgraphed to j the President of the United States, asking for a force to arrest Governor Quitman, of Alissiasippi. You express some doubt as to the correAness ot the rumor, I can set you right in the matter. I heard on Sunday the 17th inst., from the very best authority, that the President had ordered the arrest of Gov. Quitman, mid that he was to be tried for treason. in taking part and furnishing arms from the Mississippi State Arsenal to General Limes and the expedition under him, in their expedition upon Cuba. "No doubt, ere this, the valiant Govern or Quitman is under arrest, and you may be so informed by telegraph from the South before this reaches you.—Cor. of the Bell. Clipper. PROCREDINes Ao►tisT Gov.

Tribune. A NEW WONDER IN MACINKIIY.—The Albany Knickerbocker thus describes a new steam engine recently patented by a Air. Black, of New York State : Black's machine, -we beleive, isl perfectly original , the power being direct ly applied to the driving wheel, without the interruption of any cylinders. piston rods, walking beams, main chests. con densor or other apparatus. By this means an immense amount of friction. room and .money is saved. This wheel of which we speak is a sulnierged one, and is so contrived thit an immense hydraidic pew er is also obtained, ivithontany mist what. ever. Several of theirs tingineitate already in operation.--one 'near Williamsburg, where it is employed its sawing-lumber and getting out floor plank. This one operates must suecessfuly. Much more, in fact, has' been effected than even its most sanguine friends have dared to hope. It drives the machinery with a degree of speed and force beyond any previous cal culation. A two horst power was produ. ced by two jets of steam. from two tubes clone eight of an inch in diameter, with the consumption of only one bushel of coal in the space of ten hours, and was kept during the whole lime in active use, saw ing umber and hoards. the Expense of the fuel required being about 25 or 30 cents in this market. What will render this ap plication of steam end eater of general a doption, is the fact that it needs no ingen ious artisan ormaeltinist to construct it. Acommon mechneke tir h atilliwright can I build a machine of-'this description, and keep it in. repair. . Ii dispenses entirely. with the steam engine, so costly and e*- pettsie, andis much safer, requiring fur any given,pnwer a much less pressure or weight of steam to the square. such." Moat SOUTH CAROLINA MOSTRRINO.--r In the Charleston .Ilifercry we Sad a cor respondence between a rifle corpse at Walterborough, attached to the 3lst regi ment of infantry, and Gov. Seabrook, of South Carolina. The soldiers tender their services to his Excellency, should they be required to fight for Southern indepen dence. They say they have "plenty of knapsack., powder-horns, flasks. bells and knives." Here is the Gov. reply : ' , Without hesitation, I accept the ser vices of your company, in the firm belief that South Carolina should be prepared at a moment's warning,,for any emergency that may arise." [loa►cs MANN says that President Tay lor told him "that in ease any State should nullify an act of Congress he would im mediately order a naval force to blockade its roast ; he would allow nothing to pass in or come out of the rebellious Stale, and he thought it would soon give up its re bellion.'' WORLD'S FAIR SPRCVLATION.—Sorne idea of the extent of the great London Fair may be formed from the fact, that the prex liege of printing the catalogue has been purchased by Messrs. Clowes, at a prem ium of *20,000, in addition to two pence for every copy sold to be applied towards the expenses of the exhibition. But a nother will be printed in several langua ges, and be bold at ten shillings per copy. BRAZIL AND THE SLAVE TRADE The Brazilian law against the Slave Trade went into operation on the 4th of September last, by a decree of the Empe ror. By this decree Brazilian men•of--I war are ordered to use special efforts to seize *lavers, and to hand over their crews and officers if► the civil tribunals for trial. The ships and cargoes are to he sold at auction, and the proceeds, after deducting $4O fur the expense of sending back to A frica each re-captured negro, divided as prize money among the officers and crew of the ship making the came. The par ty denouncing a slaver to the Giuvern n►ent is also to share in the 'prize money. No Brazilian vessel is allowed to clear for the coast of Africa without the owner's giving securitiy that it shall not take slaves on board. The introduction of slaves in to any part of the Empire is made piracy, and punishable with death. A special law, hereafter to be framed, will determine the punishment to be inflicted en the cap tains of slavers. 11 dies c memures be ef lectually carried out, they will greatly aid in breaking up the slave trade on the coast of Africa. A SILLY OPINIHIC—JoiIgo Parsons, of Philadelphia. in a recent contested election case, declared it ns his opinion, that the I law ..does not require that every judge of eleetion shall be able to read and write ; that there ore hundreds of election officers' in Pennsylvania who can do neither ; and that if the judge of an election can't sign his name, he can get some one to do it for hirin - ind that will do just as well?' On this silly opinion the Daily News remarks that it can be readily perceived how desi rable it might lie, now that the Judges are to he elected by the people, that there should be ignorant judges of elections, who can neither - read nor write, in such dis tricts as Moyamensing or Penn, where Lo • cofocoism is in the ascendency ; but we are at a loss to know how a judge on the bench could so fur forget his own self-res pect as to express an opinion, which, if carried out practically, could not fail to ' undermine our free institutions, and to re- ! sult iu the most fearful consequences.—' To adjudge that it is not necessary fur an elective offieer to have the capacity to do the duties which he swears to perform, would be making a public mockery of our elertiOns ; and yet who will pretend I to say that the man who can neither read I nor write is capable of doing the duties 1 which an election officer swears he will I perform t The position assumed by Judge Parsons would be too ridiculously I absurd to deserve any notice, did he not: occupy a judicial position. Could the man n ho can neither read or write, do any one of the duties of an election officer Could he tell whether a voter's name was! on the Assessor's list? Conld he know whether the clerk had correctly written down the voter's name on the pHil list 1 Could he decide upon the right of a natu ralized citizen's vote upon an examination of his certificate of naturalization 2 Could he count off the tickets ? Could he, in short, without being able to read or write, certify under oath that John Smith had received so many .votes for Congress, and John Jones so many for Prothonotary, and so on ? He could not do so. As for the statement of the Judge that there are hundreds of election officers in the State who cannot read or write, we can only say he has drawn upon his imaginatine for his facts. IVe have never known a case of the kind in the interior, and we are quite I certain Judge Parsons never did. BRUTAL-11mi of the nowt brutal and re volting acts of which we ever heard,came to our knowledge a few days since, the partic ulars of which, as related to us by a gentle man conversant with the facts, are briefly these : A laboring man, lately in the employ of Mount Holy Iron Works, in this county, lost a amt some 12 or 15 years of age, by death. The coffin, being made according to dimensions sent, was found, on placing therein the remains, to be entirely too 1 small. Whereupon the inhuman father ' cooly took up the corpse, and carrying it' to the wood pile, deliberately chopped off both fed above the ankle. Such an act of monstrosity, in a community like this, is enough to curdle our heart's blood, and make us wonder to y wanner of species we beloug.,—Carlisle Democrat Nor. 21.

Tippoo Sultan, attract ed by some eatables in the cellar of a neighboring house, moved in that direc tion, bringing with him the log to which he was chained. After breaking in the cellar doors, he discovered that the vege tables and other things so much to be de sired by hint, could not be 'reached in that manner, and he very gently (toinmenced to move the home a little out of his way. This operation awakened the family, who arose to sec the cruse of their disturbance. Upon ascertaining it they decamped to in form the keeper that they had "seen the elephant," and desired that they might also see him taken to his old stand. The keep er arrived but not in' time to save the house from being utterly demolished. as it had been moved entirely from ;off its founda tion.

A CHAMPION or WOHAN'S The Lowell Offering fanlights an interes ting account of 'Miss Weber. a youngtel gian lady, who stands preeminent among the advocate), of woman's rights. Her practice is ib aces:intent* with her theory, and she wears male attire and carries on a farm. She is handsome, only 24 years old, dresses in the pension (Ashton of black dress coat and pants, with buff vest. Her defence of the practice is racy. The nether garment (she says) was first - worn in the bifurcated form by the women, of ancient Judea. The' exclusive' claim which man so pertinacionely maintain. to the nee of this garment, is arbitriiy, with out a solitary argument to support it, not even that of prior • usage. Nature never intended that the sexes. should be distin guished by apparel. The beard .which she assigned solely to man is the natural token of his sex. (Miss Weber may not only take our hat, but pants* also.) She claims in addition every civil, political, and ecclessiostical right for women, and it is said that her every word. look andy ac tion is characterized with the most relined womanly delicacy.

A teacher tine day endeavoring to make a pupil understand the nature and applica tion of a passive verb, said :—A passive verb is the expressive of receiving an ac tion. as Peter is beaten. Now what did Peter do? Well. I don't know, said the boy, pausing a moment, with the gravest countenance imaginable, "without he hol lered." VitRIFCATION OF A Desam.—Just two weeks ego, last Saturday night, says the Boston Transcript, a young lady residing in Hanover street, in this city, retired to bed at her usual hour, slid in her usual cheerful, happy frame of mind. After ha ving fallen asleep, she had a frightful dream or vision. She dreamed that her brother, who was in the western part of New York, was killed, his body horribly mangled in death. This dream seemed so vivid and reel, end impressed her mind so forcibly, that she awoke and even rose from her bed, and walked her room, weep. ing in great anguish. Another lady, who was sleeping in an adjoining chamber, was awakened by her wailings, and, on going into the room to ascertain the cause, found her sitting in a chair weeping. The lady endeavored to soothe her fear., and finally persuaded her to retire once more to bed, and try to for get the dream. The next Monday morn-' ing the young lady received a telegraphic despatch, annoricing that her brother, Mr. Wise, a brekernee on the Western Rail ! road, had fallen froin the cars on one of the freight trains near East Chatham, N. Y., and been run over, and instantly kil -1 led. The accident happened about two o'clock, on Sunday morning, precisely a -1 bout the time of the dream. INTERKSTING Maitniamt.—Yesterday morning a very interesting ceremony was performed, where neither the officiating clergyman nor any of the parties interest ed uttered a syllable. It took place at the Deaf and Dumb Asylum ; the bride, groom, brides-maid and groomsman being all deaf mutes, and-the ceremony being conducted entirely with the fingers. Previous to the marriage Mr. Peet, the President, made a silent address to tile pupils, which, though entirely incomprehensible to ourselves, seemed to interest those who understood the language.—New rork Tribune, of Friday. DISCOVERY OF A THIRD RING TO SA RN.—We learn from the Boston 'l'rav eller, that on Friday night, the existence of a third ring around this Planet, which had been for some time suspected, was ascertained by the astronomers at Cam bridge. It is inferior to the two others, and therefore its distance from the body of Saturn must be small. The eighth satel lite of this Planet was also discovered at Cambridge, by Mr. Bond, about two years since. TALL .I.tvimi:—The Calvary Church, New York, in addition to $5,000 sidary, has given, it is reported. to Dr. Hawks, its Rector, $15,000, furnished a parsonage, house, and insured his life to the amount of $lO,OOO. This is probably the largest liv ing ever bestowed upon any clergyman in the Union. BRIDGE OVER THE OHIO.-Mr. Pope, from the Committee on the Judiciary, in the Sennte of Kentucky. has reported a bill providing for the incorporation of a company to construct a bridge across the Ohio River at Louisville.

Miss Fillmore sustained her mother admi rably. Mrs. Fillmore, after saluting the visitors as they approached her, present ed them to her daughter by her side, who, with a slight blush, which was very becoming to her youthfulness, received their salutations without any thing like confusion or embarrassment.

What is the use of removing from our magis trates the prohibition to take cognisance and kr riediction of the case of a fugitive slave, when these muter. mime them and whisk them out of the State without as much as saying loony judi cial officer, by your leave, Sir The Philadelphia Meeting adapted another res olution which sounds rather inconsistent with the above ; it reads thus : "That further agitation of the subject of slavery which has heretofore promoted neither the wel fare of the slave nor the reuse of einsocipation, can be productive of nothing but evil. It has been adjusted by Congress, and with that adjust ment, it should be permitted, in our estimation, to rest." .- Why renew agitation then by seeking to change our State Laws 1 Why not let the subject of slavery rest with the adjustment made by Con gress? Why impose silence, and yet propose new steps to be taken in this matter which "can be productive of nothing bus evil." Like Udall Heap and his mother, "we are very luabki," and have no right to entertain an opinion or say a word in opposition to these bright and shining lights who'are so fearful that the Union will tum ble to pieces unless they prop it up, but still why will .they provoke us by renewed agitation to speak our thoughts at the peril of being dubbed ■nd damned as an "abolitionists" by those orators and editors who, in their impetuous, newborn seal for the preservation of our "glorious Union" from a destruction which no sane man drams of, have all of • sudden waked up to • sense of the wrongs of the Slave-dealer, end lolly, if not crime, ofall opposition to the encroachments of the Slave power. There should be seine forbearance shown to us "weaker brethren," who are for the life of us unable to see how these temporary commissioner. can be converted into constitutional judges, in the face of the provisions of the constitution as con strued by the Supreme Court. And it is still hardir to ask us to legislate in favor of men who spurn our help, and abide by the "higher law" of the strong arm, ..That they should take, who have the power." [York Republican.

The circumstances attending this melancholy affair are thus briefiv related to us by Capt. Mcßride: •Ou the upward trip of the Ammonia from New:Orleans, while the boat was ly• iug to at a•Weed yard for the. night, be tween islaud 98 and 37, on the night of M o nday, the'4th inst., the deceased, Mich. Wynn, and. Dr. Crane, both cabin passen gm, quarrelled, at a game of cards, and were on the point of coming to blows, when the Captain stepped in and preven ted a difficulty. Wynn left the cabin and Woot , below, endll , soon followed by Crane a who says he signed going on the Dump, whieb boarivas lying alongside.— On the lower deck the parties again quar relled, Wynn using some abusive language, whirrepue Crane drew` a revolver end fir red Toot shots, all or which are supposed to have taken effect. The officers, crew, and passenger*, alarmed by the' firing, ran to the spot, and found Crane and Wynn standing within fivri b feet of each other, the latter smoking a cigar. The captain again interfered, and told the parties they must cease fighting and go to their rooms, or both go ashore. Crane feat left the deck and soon retired for the night. Wynn re. rosined up until a very late hour coeval.. ling and smoking in the Social Hall, and, to the repeated inquiries of Captain Mc- Bride sad others as to his injuries, stoutly denied that be eras hurt, although two bul let holes were plainly visible in his clothes. On the following morning, (Tuesday) Wynn did not get up as usual, and, in the course of the fdrehoon, Capt. Mcßride and several others called io hie state-room, and insisted upon kin wounds being dressed, but he *Delimited' , refused, and would not even suffer his clothes to be taken off. He re mained in this condition regularly receiv ing his !nettle tram the cabin table until Saturday morning, when he arose, was shavedhy the barber of the boat, put on some clean clothes and again retired.— Soon shier he sent for the captain and made some inquiries regarding hospital ar rangements in this city, and expressed a desire to be sent to the best regulated, as soon as the boat reached port. An hour or so later, and but a few moments before the boat touched at the landing, some gen tleman in the cabin called in his roam and found him in the last agonies of death.— Yesterday morning the Coroner of our city was called upon by Capt. Mcßride, and held an inquest, at which the above facts, in substance, were elicited, and a ver dict was returned that Michael Wynn, the detested, came to his death Iron the effect cif pistol shots, fired by the hears of one Dr. H. Crane. Upon stripping Wynn's body, it was discovered that not less than lour pistol balls had taken effect, all in the region of the hips and groin, and producing frightful wounds. His coolness at the time of the recounier and subsequent conduct, can a. /one be accounted for from the fact that lie was partially intoxicated, and remained in that condition nearly up to the time of his death. He was destitute of means, the .captain having but n short time previous Afto the difficulty loaned him a small sum of dProney._ Dr. Crane, we are informed, was on his way to Louisville, Ky., to attend the med ical dectures this wittier, and when the Amazonia, reached Cairo he got off and proceeded up the Ohio, and is, up to the pretent time, no doubt unconscious of the Ate of his victim. „gcrThe "great Union Meeting” came .aff in Philadelphia on Thursday evening ...nweek,lohnSeargant presiding.
