General Scott.
The friends of Gen. Winfield Scott, in North
ampton county, will hold a meeting at the house
of Mr. John Whitzell, in Stockertown, Forks tsp.,
on Saturday next, to elect Delegates to represent
that County in the Scott Slate Convention, to be
held at Harrisburg on Tuesday the 2Gth of July.
The Apportionment Bill-
The difficulty in relation to this-agitating ques
tion is at length happily settled for the next ten
years. The Apportionment Bill, as amended by
the Senate, passed the House of Representatives
on Friday a week, and has doubtless ere this re
ceived the signature of the President and become
a law. Its provisions are, first, one Member for
every 70,GS0, inhabitants, and each State having a
fraction "of more than half that number, to "be enti
tled to an additional member. Secondly, that
hereafter no State shall elect by General Ticket
or double districts;. but they must be divided into)
the same number of Districts as they are entitled
to Representatives ; and each District consist of
of contiguous territory. Under this ratio of 70,
680, and the fractions, the number of Members for
ench State will bo as follows :
Maine . - 7 South Carolina 7
New Hampshire 4 Georgia fi
Massachusetts in Alabama 7
Rhode Island 2 Mississippi 4
Connecticut 4 Louisiana 4
Vermont 4 Tennessee 11
New York 34 Kentucky . 10
Mmt, k nhin 21
Pennsylvania 21 Indiana
Del a warn - 1 Illinois
.Maryland ,6 Missouri 5
Virginia 15 Arkansas - 1
North Carolina 9 Michigan 3
Making in all 223, or 19 less than tho number
which compose the present Hqu&o. Thisjatjo
will leave our District pretty much the same as it
now is, provided our law makers see proper not to
interfere and cut it up. We shall soon know, as
t committee of the Legislature has already been
ippojnted to rrport upon tho mattor,

Milford, Juno 22, 1&12. ':
From the New York Tribune Extra.
Important from flioie Island.
Intelligence received this morning (Friday)
from Providence, confirms the fears expressed
yesterday ofrenewed disturbance and outrage
in Rhode-Island.. From the energies and de
cided proceedings of the lawfyl auihoritiesj it
is evident that the' adherents of Dorr are pre
paring for new acts of agitation and violence.
We learn that on Thursday Gov. Kino left
Providence in the' Massachusetts at 1 o'clock
for Newport. He ordered all the MilitiaJof the
State to proceed to Providence. The steamer
Providence had been chartered, and would take
the troops from Newport, Bristol, Warren and
other towns on the River so that 3,000 men
were expected to be under arms at Providence
to-day. They will march without delay tn Che
pachet, sixteen miles distant, the head-quarters
of Dorr and his adherents. It was generally
believed that Providence would bo placed under
martial law to-night. These facts wo learn
from ofikers nf the steamboat Massachusetts.
-We think it not unlikely that the principal ob
ject of the rebellious partizans of Dorr in these
demonstrations is to create a Jreah excitement
which shall prevent the Legislature from pass
ing anv acts lavorablo to iho extension of the
right of Suffrage as that would at once frus
trate all their schemes of lawless violence. We
trust that these considerations will not be al
lowed to influenco tho members of the Genoral
Assembly hut that tlje" steps already taken to
wards calling a Convention of the people to re
vise the Constitution will at once be carried into
full efiect. This course alone will save the
State from continued anarchy and disorder.
, We have received the following slip from the
oflice of the. Provideueu Journal:
Thursday, P. M., June 23.
MOST DIABOLIC A L.0UTR AGE.
Messrs. C. J. Shelly, J. C. Keep, C. A. Har
ris, and S. W. Peckham were stopped on the
highway near Chopachet last Wednesday eve
ning, by some of Dorr's armed ruffians. The
two latter were met by a, patrol, on horseback,
about a quarter of a mile from the village. One
of the patrol immediately started for the village,
and sixteen men, with muskets, slopped the
chaise in which Messrs. Harris and Peckham
were riding: one of them jumped upon the aleps
and exclaimed, "they are damned landholders;
let's arrest them." At this, the party pointed
their muskets at them, their arms were taken
from them, and they were carried to Sprague's
tavern, where, with the two first named, their
hands were bound behind them with cords, and
the four were marched on foot to Woonsocket,
twelve miles distant, under a guard of 30 men.
Half of this distance they were marched with
their hands tied behind them. At Woonsocket
they were put in a barn, and supplied with food.
In the morning they were libeiated, it is sup
posed, by the intercession of .Mr. West, who,
although one of Mr. Dorr's men, appears not to
have made up his mind to a highway robbery
Some of the men wero aiaimed at the probable
effect of this outrage, ami as a report was in
circulation that a fwiire would be instantly sent
from Providence, this undoubtedly had a great
effect in procuring their release. Their arms
were no', restored. It is impossible to describe
the sensation which the news of arrest caused
in the citv, and which had increased to a terri-
ble high', when il was partially relieved by the
intelligence of their release.
One of the men upon whom this outrage was
committed, being exhausted with the painful
march, was urged on by the bayonet, with which
ho was repeatedly pricked, until, being faint
and absolutely unablo to go on, he was thrown
into a wagon. Tho others were also abused
and instilled during their march.
It is to bo considered that the men upon
whom this outrage was committed, were not
accused of any offence, eren according to Dorr's'
constitution, nor were they arrested by any
warrant or other authority. The only charge
against them was, that they were "damned land
holders;"
Two gentlemen, who were riding near Woon
socket on Wednesday evening last, were stop
ped by eiht men with muskets. They instant
ly drew their pistols, and the scoundrels step
ped back; one of them struck the horse with
such violence as to break his musket. They
screamed out "stop them," autl a number oCpeo
plc ran out with muskets, but they-did not suc
ceed iif stopping them again.
Another of the men engaged in the attempt
to steal the Warren guns, has been, arrested and
carried to Bristol. More will probably be ta
ken very soon.
Twelve hundred pounds of scrap boiler-iron
were stolen, Wednesday night, from a machine
shop in Pa'wtucket. This is the material with
which the insurgents loaded .i)ieir guns on the
18th of May. '

A man named James Gammell, reached New
York on Wednesday of last weekv from Van Die
mans Land, having escaped from that convict col
ony in an American whale hhip. He was one of
the Canadian pntriots, captured by the British, sent
to England, tried, and transported from thence for
the part ho took in the so called rebellion, in Can
ada. Gammell informs the Herald, that he is
about 28 years of age; was born in New York,
brought up in Canada, and during the troubles
there, was taken under Col. James Monroe, at
Short Hills, Upper Canada, in the summer of 1S33.
Monroe was hung; Gammell was sentenced to be
hung on the 25th of August, 1838, but was re
prieved, sent to Englaqd with John S. Parker,
and 22 others, and thence transported to Van Die
man's Land for life, with about 70 more Ameri
cans. He reached Hobart's Town on the 6th of
January 1810, with eleven others, all of whom
were immediately sent one hundred miles into the
interior, where they were obliged to work in irons
for two years. After a number of hair breadth
escapes, he succeeded in secreting himself on
board the ship which" brought him safely to this
