from their unenviable position by tak
in' shelter under the "stars and stripes."
They have arrived at New Orleans,
l,crimps somewhat wiser than when they
eft the dwres of the United States. It
is to be presumed,that there were some
preliminaries to the arrangements by
which Walker was brought off by a
United States vessel, of which we may
learn mom. hereafter.

wAp. Gov. Dickinson.
Kinnam was introduced hy Gen.
lionvers, and made a neat speech, in
fimuing the President that it was the
first piece of Cabinet work he had ever
atterniAcd.
The President's response, as well as
Kinnam> ; adtlress,, was loudly applaud
ed. Having tried the chair, the Presi
dent pronounced it comfortable, and
promised to preserve it as a cherished
memento.
Struek by the annet.—The good peo
ple down in Indianapolis, lud. , were
terribly frightened on Tuesday evening.
They believe down there that the comet
is going to knock our little planet "all
to smash," and have been greatly exer
cised about it for sonic time. With
this belief, and under this exeltement,
they were throwin into a state of alarm
on 'Tuesday evening, tl4tt is described
as "perfectly awful," by seeing the
moon rise from behind the eastern hills,
:Is red as blood, and looking like the
great head of a fiery dragon. They
thought it Was the comet—that it was
about to strike—that the end Oran earth
ly things was at hand, and they set
themselves to work, with prayers and
tears and supplications, to "make their
peace," and be ready to "go up." So
frightened were they, says the Lafay
ette Journal, that the alarm bells were
rung, and the fire engines brought out,
and the excitement and confusion, for a
few moments, was indescribable. The
idea of calling out the engines, under
such circumstances, was worthy of the
genins,of Dame Partington, 'ho un
dertook to repel an invasion of the At
lantic with her mop. The appearance
of the full orb above the horizon soon
restored the people to their senses, and
converted their shrieks of affright and
frenzied appeals to Heaven into a gener
al guffaw.
important Decision 'on a Hill of Ex
change.--Judge Petit, of Indiana, ren
dered a decision on the sth, in an im
portant case on a bill of exchange, at
Lafayette, which, if sustained as law,
will have a material effect on the ex
change business of oar banks and bank
ers. The ease was founded upon a bill
l
eo
of exchange drawn a d accepted by par-1
ties in Toledo and di anted by bank
era in Lafayette, for e acoommodation
of the holder, at a considerable shave
the hoJder's endorsement being required
to the bill, as a condition of its being ta
ken. The bill was not paid at maturity;
the brokers came back on the endorser
for payment, who set up the plea of
usury in defence. The Judge charged
that the fact that the plaintiff required
the endorsement of the holder of the bill
—now the defendant in the suit—made
the transaction a loan of money to him
and not a sale of the bill, and conse
quently usurious, if more than 6 per
cent. were taken, and that they could
not in any event find for plaintiffs for a
greater sum than the amount paid by
them upon the bill when they received
it, and also that a verdict must be ren
dered against the plaintiffs for the costs.
'The result of the trial was a verdict for
the plaintiffs for the amount advanced
Iby them upon the bill, without any
interest whatever, and against. them for
cost.
