A Sad Story.
The ilVirelling house and barn of Mr.
Seymour F; Benedict, at Walton, 9ela
ware colinty, N. Y„ was destroyed by
fire on Saturday night the 7th instant,
and dreadful to relate, his wire and Ave
children perished in the flames. As near
'as can be ascertained, the fire was com- •
municated from a candle that the children
took on going to bed, up stairs. Mr.
Benedict and his wife were first awaken
ed by the fire breaking through from the
chamber into the room where he and his
wife and their youngest child slept. They
immediately rushed out of the house, car
rying the child with them, The children
up stairs were crying for help, surrounded
by the flames, and Mr. Benedict urged
them to jump from the a indow—that lie
would catch them. The eldest did so,
being then already touch burned, but the
others did not, either through fear tic ina
bility. Meanwhile, it is supposed that
Mrs. B. had gone into the house with the
vain endeavour to get them out ; and the
little child, about four years old, Uncon
scious of danger, followed her; and all
perished.
A Child Killed by Beare.
A few days since a child was killed in
the northern part of Decatur, co. la., about
sixty miles North west of Cincinnati.
The Bulletin says :--" The child was
some distance from the house gathering
nuts when the bears attacked and killed
it. Shortly after this fate they met a man
in the woods and chased him home, pur
•suing him to his very door, when he took
down his gun and shot one of them with-
in a few steps of his door, and with some
of his neighbors, succeeded shortly after
in killing the other. This happened in
'the most populous part of the country.--
We did not learn the paticulars nor the
names of the persons who were concern
ed, but we have it from a good source."
Dreadful Doings In Olio.
An affray took place at Georgetown,
, (0.) on Monday (the 9th inst.,) between
some Kentucky negro hunters and a num
ber of abolitionists. some runaway ne
groes, belonging to Col. Edward Towers,
'of Mason connty, (Ky,) were concealed
In the houses of Robert Miller, and Ab
salom King, and Miller's house being
searched, two of the runaways were dls
covered in it. Miller, while aiding them
. .
to escape, was knocked down, and so
dreadfully stabbed that he survived but a
..f sfew minutes. The captors then proceed
ed, with the two slaves bound, toward
King's house, but were met on the road
by four or five men. who resisted the pro
posed endeavor to search King's dwell
ing. Both parties were well armed, and
& conflict ensued, in which Col. Tower's
son was shot dead, and King so badly
wounded that he can hardly survive.--
The Sherilland his possee at this period
stopped the riot, attested the insurgents,
and conveyed them to Georgetown.—
Shortly afterward an additional number
of Kentuckians arrived and they imme
diately hung one of the slaves for resist
ing a brother of Col. Towers, whn had
' captured him, burned Miller's and King's
houses to the ground, and beat a Mr. Al
exander Gillilland till his life was despair
ed of. The Georgetown Telegraph, from
an extra of which the above is gleaned,
adds The number of the Kentuckians
is increasing hourly, and the whole neigh
borhood is up in arms. The Sheriff is ac
tively engaged in attetnpting to quell the
riot."
Report of Secretary of War.
We have received the report of the Sec
retary of War, Which occpuies six closely
printed columns of the Washington
Globe. The following is a synopsis of
the report from the War Department.
The Secretary leads off with an eulogy
q/ on the arrangement of the different bu
reaus under his department, comptehetuk
ing the "military establishment," "pen
sions and bounties for military services,"
"improvements of rivers and harbors,"
of mineral lands and all Indian affairs."
He notes the fact that the present mili
tary organization of the United States is
U for times of peace," but still with a iiew
to the purpose of preserving among us as
a people, all " that military knowledge,
without which a nation is never prepared
to assert her own dignity, oor ever defend
her soil from invasion." He thinks that
if any untoward circumstance should drive
us to the necessity of war, our health, pop.
ulation and skill in the mechanic arts,
would enable us to cope with any nation.
The remounting of the second Regiment
of Dragoons is recommended as the very
best force for military service in the prai
ries.
He notes the real termination of the
Florida war, and the restoration of conti.
dence in that Territory.
He recommends central barracks in
healthy sites on the seaboard, and not the
least politic of his recommendations, is
the one that buildings for religious wor
ship and schools be erected as attachments
to all our public fortifications.
He recommends an addition to' the
' horse er light field artillery tutee." and
totes the fact that "superiority in the
Corse artillery force in the French revo
utionary war, generally secured the vie
[cry."
Ile expl•esses a high opinion of the
West Point Academy—says the appoint
ments of the cadets are impartially made,
and regrets that a portion of the people
attach to it what he apprehends to be " a
mistaked and grOundless charge of aris
tocratic tendency." The Secretary evi
dently fears that public opinion is setting
against the Academy ; and in his closing
remarks, he asks that a committeee of
Congress may be appointed to visit the
Institution, and report such amendments
or reform its management as may be deem
ed necessary.
The Secretary thinks that with a mil
itary establishment like ours, it should be
the policy of the Government to encour
age the resignation of officers after twen
ty.five years service, and recommends as
an inducement, that Congress pass a law
"entitling an officer after twenty-five
years of good and faithful service, to a
section of public land, and two years fur
lough on full pay, with the condition,
should he avail himself of this privilege,
that his commission be vacated at the
termination of his furlough."
The Secretary recommends the erec
tion of per mament fortifications on sev
eral parts of the seabbard. He urges the
policy of a system of defence by perma
nent fortifications.
A national foundry, with all the means
of trying and testing iron ores coining from
different parts of the country—also for
making model guns, and securing the
safety of cannon, is appropriately spoken
at as necessary. The Secretary giv . es
well digested and cogent reasons
,Ln the
necessity and utility of such an establish•
men t.
The Secre tart' says that he has no doubt
of our legitimate claim to the territory
west of the Rocky Mountains, and hints
the necessity of an organization of some
manner or government over the American
citizens that are every day settling it.
He recommends an appropriation of
96100,000 for erecting the military posts
from the Missouri river to •the Rocky
Mountains:
Report of Secretary of Navy,
From the annual report of the Secreta.
ry of the Navy, we condense the most
important portion thereof:—The Navy of
the United States at the present time con•
sists of six ships of the line, one razee,
fourteen Irigates, twenty one sloops of
war, sixteen brigs and schooners, thrett
store ships and eighteen steamers afloat.
There are on the stocks, in an unfin
ished state four ships of the line, three
frigates, one store ship, an iron steamer at
Pittsburg, and one at the Navy Yard at
Washington to be used as a water tank.
Since the last annual report, after care
ful survey and inspection, it was found
most conductive to the public interest to
sell the frigate Hudson, and the store
ships Consort and Chipola, and orders ,
have been recently given for the sale of
the Pioneer. In each case the Navy
Agent conducting the sale, was limited as
to the price, and thy sales are satisfacto
ry. The Hudson was originally built
by contract for a foreign government,
was found to be unworthy of repair, and
it was believed to be more advantageous
to sell than to break her up.
The force estimated for and proposed
to be employed during the year, com
mencing on the Ist day of July, 1845,
consists of 10 frigates, 13, sloops of war,
7 brigs, 2 schooners, 4 armed steamers,
4 store ships and 2 small vessels.
It is not so larg e as that estimated for
in the last annual report—butit is some
what larger than that first authorized by
the appropriations for the current fiscal
year: .
The Secretary states that he has com
plied with the law of June 1844, by
which it is provided that the whole num
ber of petty officers, seamen, ordinary
seamen, landsmen and boys in the Naval
service during the current fiscal year
shall not exceed at any one time, seven
thousand five hundred men. Acting un
der this law he says that the department
promptly gave orders to suspend the en
listment of men, and to discharge the
crews of the vessels as they reach our
own waters, until the required reduction
was effected.
