The Jxdiajt Trocbles ix Florida. Since
'the attack upon Lieut. ITartsnflTs party, that
portion of Florida along the Indian Kivcr and
ia the vicinity of Fort llycr3 lias become very
unsafe for whites. Stragglers from tho Fori,
cr adventurers hi pursnit of game in those wild
but hitherto peaceful hunting districts, are
f.red upon by yellow miscreants concealed be
hind trees and in the chnpparal. Vfe have
just received authentic information cf another
attack equal in atrocity to that committed upon
Lieut. IlarlsufFs squad. It is a Jotter from an
officer dated, Fort Myers, January 19, 1S:.0
It says, An express has just arrived from
Tort Deynaud with another Indian outbreak.
A party of woodcutters, consisting cf a corpo
ral and five men, were fired at by Indians, 4
miles from the post. One man only escaped
5io slightly wounded;) the rest were massa
cred, and twelve mules killed. Lieut. Lam
ed, 2d Artillery, directly4went in search of the
savages but though he scoured the country a
round not. a sign or trace of them could be
found, and strangely enough the dead bodies
of the men were also missing, nor was there
ny tracoof blood, but the country is so much
underwater that blood could easily be washed
away. On his return Lieut. Webb, 2d Artil
lery, and a party went out. They, too, crqdo
xsd every place, but without success ; so the
case remains a mystery. The Indians were
supposed to bo Leaded by an old chief named
Okchan. Kepcated scouts have been sent in
every direction through the country Ironi Fort
Deynaud since the affair -with Lieut. Ilartsuff,
and though they have frcequently seen Indian
0gs (It is commonly said that where you find
Indian hogs, the Indians themselves are not
Tar off,) they never have Been any trace of the
Indians themselves."
Extueme Cold at the South. A corres
-pondent of the Picayune, writing from Cam
don, Arkansas, Jan. 11th, says "It is so con
foundedly cold that I can ccarcely write. I
rm fairly freezing. Thorghts mr.y breathe-,
but there is no chance for "words that burn,"
-wherewith to warm one's self in this merciless
weather. I tin believe this must bo the cold
est place. just now, on this side of poor John
Franklin's remains. The Wachita river 13 fro
zen over ; stock is freezing to death in nur.i
l?rs all around us, and I verily believe (al
most) that we shall lose seed of everything in
the poultry line. Tho thermometer for the
greater part of the time ranges at 20 or 22 dg.
K-low the freezing point. I write this with
the inkstand on the hearth, a big blanket over
iny bead, and both feet in the fire ! U-g-h, I
can't go any more."
The officer? of the steamboat Alid.i, at New
Orleans from the Red River, report: Left
Shreveport Jan. 2"th. River falling faster at
that point than ever before known. In port
and bound for New Orleans, steamboat Victo
ria, Pelican and Eflort. As far up as could be
learned the river was at low water mark and
falling. A letter from Roland, Texas, repor
ted the river frozen over at that point an I the
Indians crossing on the ice with their ponies-
A letter dated Fort Belknap. Texas, Dec. 39,
says, "The weather for the last week has been
extraordinary; such intense cold is unheard of
In these parts. The breath of the Arctic re
gions rushed down upon us on the 221 inrt., 7
o'clock P. M., with our windows, and doors
opea, on account of heat,and in a few mo;,ierds
the cold was paralyzing. Since then, until
sundown yesterday, the relentless norther
raged, killing horses, calves and chickens,
and frost-biting several persons exposed to Its
merciless fury.
The Stats Arsenal Rodbest. The Grand
Jury of Dauphin County at the late session of
tho Court, found two bills againtt Andrew E.
Drane, late keeper of the Stato Arsenal, and
Aaron Coburn, a Democratic Member of the
House of Representatives from the County of
Philadelphia, for robbery of the State Arsenal
.-.t llarrisburg a lew months ego. The first
count of the indictment charges Drane with
the Larceny of rifles and muskets to the valno
of $2,C25, Coburn with being accessary to said
Larceny before tho fact. The second count
' charges Coburn alone with receiving the prop
erty referred to, knowing it to have been sto
len. The other indictment is against both for
a conspiracy to appropriate to their own use
the property of the Commonwealth. The case
was continued by the Court, at the roquest of
Mr. Coburn's counsel. Mr. C- was held to bail
in the sum of $2,500, to appear at the April
sessions and was discharged. Drano remains
In jail.
Railroad Accident. A frightful accident
occurred on tho Columbia Railroad on the
night of the -ith, about four miles west of Phi
ladelphia, by which one person was killed and
twcr.tv-seven were wounded. A rail, rendered
"brittle by the intense cold, broke in three pie
ces, throwing tho front wheels of the forward
car off the track. These wheels were, howev
er, drawn upon the rail3 again, and this car af
terwards retained its position upon tho track.
The second car was thrown from the track,
and the forward axle breaking, tho car, with
All its occupants, was precipitated down an
embankment about thirty feet high. The car
in its descent struck a large tree at the bot
tom. The concussion split the car open and
threw many of tho passengers to the ground,
nnd enabled most of the others to escape from
the wreck. Had tho car not been broken to
pieces tlws consequences would have been
wore frightful, as there was a very hot fire in
tho stove. Tho blazing contents of the stove
ver- scattered through the car in its descent,
nd ia a few minutes the latter was in Howes.
The Mo.nt.oe Doctrine," of which so much
has been said and written, is contained in a sin
gle sentence'of one of Mr. Monroe's messages.
Here it is :
"Tyat the American Continents by the free
and in U per.dnt condition which tliey Ikivo "S
suuicd and maintained, are henceforth not to
1c considered as subjects for future coloniza
tion by any European power."

friends of Iloniaiiism to be on their guard a
gaiust the cction of the committee. Xow for
the key to the mysterious rur on the part of the
I'recman's Journal. It appears that Mr. Ken
nedy has turned the tables upon Gov. Ligon,
and seeks to inrestiza'c the affairs of more secret
societies tiiau the Gov. largaiuclfur. The first
'persons' sent for should be tho Jesuits, with
their 'papers; or, these tailing to appear lot
the committee bo cmpowed to obtain tho ''pa
pers" of thc Jesuits from thc archives of the
society's'' institutions. Perhaps some few en
quiries into thc objects and airn.j of the Sociev
of St. Vincent Do Paul," or the purpose of
tho "Leopold Foundation" might lead to
something interesting if not startling. We
shail watch these proceedings with sytae inter
est. IIiiA-t Lewis Cass ox IIomaxism. The Hon.
Lewis C.is3 made a speech in the Senate of thc
United States in May, 18-3-1, and which can now
bo found in thc Congressional Globe, CGd Con
gress, 1st Session, pages C31 to G3D, wherein
he takes strong ground against Romanism.
Gen. Cass, after giving the barbarous treatment
of Protestants in many Iloman Catholic coun
tries, on this and thc other side of tho Atlantic
concludes as follows:
"And docs Archbishop Hughes believe tliat
a!i those abuses are destined to coj.tirjue, un
touched and unchanged? That they will much
long-cr resist the mighty tide cf public opinion
which has already done so much in these, our
latter days, and is fated to do so much more ?
And are the representatives of the American
people to lay their bands upon their mouths,
and mouths in the dust, to look on at tho per.
seditions and oppressions to which their coun
trymen arc exposed abroad, and not even ex
press their displeasuro and their demands.'
And all from m affectation of natioi'.il di'cor
r.m, national t-qucamisliness, it should be
c tiled, which is so tender to the presumption
o! others as to sacriSco our own true rights
and honor."
A T.,m is- the Dcd Sea I proposed a
bath, for tho sake or experiment, but Francois
endeavored to dissuade us. Ho bad tried it ;
and nothing could bo v.v-tj disagreeable; we
ristie-I getting a fever, an I there were fjiir
hours of dangerous travel yet Leforo us. But
by this time wc were half uri.'lrcsvd, ar..l soon
wera floating in the bituminous waves. Ti.e
beach wa3 fi::e gravel, and shelved gradually
down. I kept my turban on iny bead, and was
carsfal to avoid touching the water with my
face. The se.i was moderately war::i,'and grate
fully soft and soothing to the skin; and even
when swimming the body rose- half out of the
water. I should thin!: it possible to dive for
a short distance, but should prefer that some
one else would try the exjicrimout.
With a log of wood for a pillow, one might
sleep as on one of the patent mattresses. The
taste of the water is salt and pungent, and
-stings tli3 tongue like saltpetre. We were ob
liged to dress in haste, without even wiping
off thc detestable liquid; yet I experienced a
very little of that discomfort which most trav
ellers bavc remarked. Where the skin ha.i
been previously bruised, there was a slight
smarting sensation, and my body felt clammy
and glutinous, but thc bath was rather refresh
ing than otherwise. JJaynrd Taylors Travels.
Gcoursi v and xnr. Auomtion-ists. (lovenor
Johnson, of Georgia, lately sent a message to
the Legislature, transmitting the resolutions
passed by the General Assembly of Vermont
in relation to Kansas.. The Governor denoun
ces the Abolitionists of the North, enduices
the principles of squatter sovereignty, speaks
of outrages against the lights oi the South,
and tells the Legislature thev must prepare for
the worst, and place the State in the safest at
titude for self-preservation. The proceedings
in the two Houses, when the Vermont resolu
tions came up for action, were rather rich.
Some of thc members wanted to send them
back, accompanied with a leaden bullet, a
charge of gunpowder, and a oil of rope; oth
ers desired that the Governor be requested to
transmit "them to the "deep, dark and fetid
sink of social nnd political iniquity from which
they emanated," with the inscription that
"Georgia heeds not the ravings of hell born fa
naticism. " Another rcsobition was offered in
the' Senate, recommending tiie President to
employ a gangof 1 iborers todig a ditch around
the Green Mountain State, and float tho thing
into the Atlantic." The resolutions, however,
were liiinlly referred to a committee.
I.t the" ax Cut -RC!i Mission-. The Evangeli
cal Lutheran Church are making the prelimi
nary arrangements for the establishment of an
African Mission. One of tiies arrangements is
the founding of an institution for the purpose
of qualifying pious people of color to labor as
missionaries in Africa. The Superintendent
of the mission is instructed to.seek out young
colored people willing to enter the institution
w ith this view. The movement is one of great
importance, anI ws wish it a large measure of
success.

on account of its reat simplicity, and tho effectu

rable and useful object
't he cans and jars are constructed with a chan
nel around the mouth, r.crr the t ip. into which
thc cover tits loosely. This channel is filled with
a very adhesive cement, prepared for tho purpose
and allowed to harden. 1 11 order to seal the ves
sel hermetically, it is only )fcci,xary to htat the
cover sttzltt! i.and iirrss it into pl-rre. It may be
opened with as much e:tso as it is closed, by slight
ly warming tho top. The ordinary tiu cans, used
for the same purpose for which this is intended,
cannot be closed, as is well known w ithout the aid
of a tinnsr; are difficult to open, and are generally
so much injured iu opening aa to be useless for
futuro service.
By this simple contrivance, the processor ber
luctical scaling is placed conveniently within tho
reach of every individual; and fruit, vegetables
ami butter (if properly prepared) may bo kept,
with their natural tlavor unimpaired, tor an iu
