LATC FenNl PORT AO PrtmcE. 7 -By the
arnval of the' bng . Poreat,f, from Port au
Prince, papers up to the 28th ult. have beeri.
received., The no wit contained- in them is
highly import pt, and gives details of a fur
ther insurrection that had taken place in
favor.of Herrera, the former President.—
We learn verbslly from Capt. Drew, that
arrentbreak took place at Leogano ahem
the 25th ult., which was headed by some of
the leading citizens 61 Port au Prince, for
the special purpose of deposing•the present
government, and nOnstajling Herrera.—
Timely information of this movement was,
however, conveyed to the government by
one of the rebels, who turned traitor to hie
party, and troops were immediately des.
patched to the place, and some forty of the
leaders captured, twenty of whom were sum
marily shot, and out of twelve who under
went a trial, nine were condemned.'to a like
fate, but lore awaiting the orders of the
President. ?" •
All the citizens of Port au Prince had
been ordered on duty as soldiers and police.
Fol. two weeks previous to Capt. Drew,'s
departure, no business had been done, and.
for some days the stores had been closed.
The government on the 28th uli, issued
a strong proclamstion, full of confidence in
the people, thanking-them for their' coop
'oration, and declaring the . revolution at an
end. •
LYNCH L!►w IN THE Cnuncu.—The
lamentable division in the Methodist Church
ts. we regret to see, producing the bitter
est fruits. A short lime since, the "Pom
monwealth"—a prominent Methodist paper
publiOrtfditt Frankfort, Ky., gave .rt most
unequivocal warning to the "Church North,"
'bout would be at their personal peril Wits
members ventured amongst and attempted
to preach to those who tat in the sanctua
ries ol• the "Church South,"—that in the
event of such a provocation, the latter would
certainly take redress into their own hands;
This was regarded at the.time as harmless
badinage, but the recent events at Parkers
burg, Va., arising from the captare and im
_prisonment.of several Ohioans cdught in the
act of enticing away Virginia slaves have
led to an overt act which cannot bei too much
lamented. -The Rev. A. Brown and tlie
Rev. John Dillon, Ohio Methodiste,' were
sent by the Ohio Conference to halters
burg to preach the gospel, the bounds of the
Ohio conference - including Parkersburg.- - --
But ;he people of the latter place were re
solved that no preachers from the,piecinct
of the "Church North" should preach the
gospel among them. A public meeting of
the eitizensicomPrising nearly all the Meth
°diets of the place, -was held ; -at--which it
was resolved that. Rev. A. Brown and Rev.
J. Dillon shopld. NO° the State immediate
ly, and a committee of forty appointed to
carry the resolution into effect. Mr. Brown
and Ar d Dillon promptly left Parkersburg,
in pursuance - or n, rnecnnng•
step necessary :to their own bodily safety.-
A:l'OTR= OUTRAGE IN GREENE,. CRE
NANGOCOUNTY, N. Y.—A few days ago
we copied from the • Norwich, Chenango
County (N. Y.) Journal, an account of an
outrage, committed upon a Mrs. Burdick,
who was dragged out of her bed, gagged,
thrown into a ditch - and rails piled upon her
body, but was afterwards rescued. The
same paper or Thursday last contains the
psrticulare of another outrage at the same
place on the portion of a Mrs. Samuel Verse,
who was seized, gagged,. blindfolded, and
thrown into a ditch by two unknown men.
She was rescued alive.

~ a rrE Fnsumac); Finn—The Frederick
'Herald says that the statement which is
going the rounds of the papt.rs, that the
Orphan Asylum at Frederick was fired by
some base and malicious incendiary, with
the fell purpose of burning up all the or
phans, is entirely unsupported by anv evi
dence, and.that the opinion of those best in
formed upon the subject is, that the fire is
to be attributed rather to accident than de
sign. The citizens without respect to sect
have contributed largely towards having it
rebuilt, and the work is to commence im
mediately.

MAITIINAL A FFECTION of A RAT.—Smite
Itmo sirice,passing along the. wharves, our
attention was arrested by a number of men
and boys gathered about some piles of wood
which they were attentively watching, and
occasionally showering volleys "of missiles
at somnthing.that peered , from bynenth.—
On inquiry, we found t 1 it - it was a rat.ma
king attempts to come out from beneath the
wood pile.: at the manifest risk of its life.—
Curious to know what it was that could.
tempt so cautious and shrewd a creature to
venture into the vary. taco of its armed• op
ponents, we persuaded the assailants to let
it proceed undisturbed, until we could see
what was its object. . Finding all quiet. it
soon cleared the space and running some
twenty leet from its shelter, picked from the
interior of a small heap of bark and 'other
materials, a young rat about the size of a
mouse—returning immediately to its shel
ter beneath the wood pile. This - it repeat
ed until it carried seven of its young to their
new abode. It -appears that a short time
before some piles of wood had been removed
and left the exposed. • We have,had a
much higher opinion of rats ever since, and
were reminded of the circumstance—as a
.sort of moral— by 'the elopement of a fash

Arrival of line Hibernia .
ra"The Steamship Hibernia arrived a Boston
on Sunday last, after a passage of 15 days, bring
ing advices . seven days later than. those by the
Great Britain
The prospects for a fair crop continued unfavor
able throughout' Digland and Ireland,- in com,e
quence of the heavy rains and succeeding sharp
frosts. Of cour4e the corn market continued firm
and active. Large quantities of flour were daily
arriving, from the U. States and Canada. 'lle et:
facts of theliews by this and the previous arriv
on our own market, has been quite apparent
" The cotton market continued dull at the sailing
of the Hibernia, owing, in a great measure, to the
mania for speculation in railway stocks and the ri
sing price of provisions. The rate of interest in
EnglatO is rising in consequence of the scarci
ty of money, superinduced by railway speculations.
The accounts front the manufacturing districts
were tavorable—the demand for thti ditli•rent pro-
ducts being active. .
O'Connell has emerged from the quiet of
mountain home, to renew the Repeal agitation. A
banquet was given him by the 'Repeaters of Tipp
perary, at whi - ch he made a speech, indicting the
rapid approach of the period when "Ireland will
have her own again, and England be obliged to ask
for that alliance which we are ready now to make—
an alliance of separate States tinder the one mon
arch, with our own Varlitanent to protect us, as
the source of logislation for the country."
The French Press were generally occupied with
discussiotei upon the relations between Mexico aunt
this countryall the journals coming sagely to
the conclusion that it is for the interest of Mexico
'•to grin and bear with" the wrongs inflicted upon
them by the .Celzure amid incorporation into our
Union of its territory. In domeitic matters no
thing of general interest was stirring. It is sup
posed that, at the next Fe sion, the Government
will Present a law fur a wholesale reduction of
_portage, and the adoption of a modified and uniform
Tate throughout 'Flake. In consequence of the
general railway mania, iron hail become acaree,
and commanded a very high price. The Paris
Journals state that it will he utterly impossible to
obtain in France the quantity which wane requi
site for the next four years . , without the erection of
additional heavy iron works.
I n S pa i n , no ne w disturbances had taken place,
but the government is continually on the alert
against suspected conspiracies and rebellions.—
The question , of the Queen's marriage is again agi
tated. It is now said that she.will give her hand
to one of the Coburgs, who is supported by 'Eng
land, Austria, and PruSsia, and consented to by
France. The Sptuligh people wish the Queen to
marry one of her cousins, a Spaniard..
ficrinany is "all talk . ' about the constitution
which has been protniSed for more than thirty
years. It is said that the king has finally , made
up his 1 7 nital to carryout theproject of a constitute
tion during the present year. The religious agile;
tion remains in pretty much the same state—the
adherents of Rouge possibly being on the increase.
The proCeedings of the new Reformers are viewed
by the Government with decided disapprobation.
In Belgium, the Chambers were engaged in dis
cus.sing a project for providing for the subsistence
of the people in consequence - of the failure of the
potato .crops.
The Russians bad sustained heavy disasters in
the contest with the brave mountaineers of Cauca-
Fns. The checks sustained by his armies has mor.
tilted the Emperor Nicholas, who, fearing that Eu
rope will entertain an indifferent opinion of his ar
mies on account of their inability to crush their
gallant foes. has resolved to send out, next spring,
nn immense force, to burn, slaughter, and destroy,
in all directions.
- The intelligence from radio and China; by-the .
overland mail, indicates a general (inlet in those
Countries. In India an interesting:discussion was
I4oing forward relative to the possession of the is
land of Chusun; now occupied by the British—the,
time for-its restoration to the Chinese being close
at hand. The British are anxious to tvain it.
“Cause for Gratulation.”
' rD—The amusing effort at exultation, in the last
i'eorripiler," over the result of the election in Ad
nms county, r e minds usnot a little of the "hurrah
mg" of a certain unfortunate son of the Emerald
Isle that we once wot off. During the course at
rather an eventful life Jemmy had seen and ex
perienced many a hard "tug" with his fellows,
and of one occasion in particular , was unfortunate
enough to "fall to" with a stout, brawny specimen
of his own country, who proved too much for him
in this struggle—as was plainly evidenced by Jem
my's disfigured countenance, broken ribs, and utter
helplessness. No sooner, however, had the one
sided "pommelling" ceased, and the victor with
drawn, than Jemmy, availing himself of whatlittle
life had not been beaten out of him, commenced
a series of right earnest "hurrahs;" accompanying
each with such spasmodic muscular efforts as his
mangled carcass would permit. A friend passing
by, and see Jemmy's condition, was, of course ,
all amazement at the mysterious scene, and with
feelings of mingled curiosity and cortipiiseration,
inquired the meaning of the "hurrahs." "An' is it
you that's after asking that," replied Jemmy, in
apparently equal amazement 'at the inquiry, "see.
in: ii_limv_tiu,;.s al •en-wasArike : te ! -be-the- (feet& all
for,
the Ueis left And Jemmy followed up his
finite sairfactory reply with renewed and still loud
er "nunnAns," despite of blackened eyes and bro
ken bones. The glorifying of the Compiler we
_apprehend to be kindi4;(l to Jemmy's "hurrahing,"
possibly induced by - a . similar reasonthe discos.,
cry that after all it was only a bad "bent," which
still leaves them in the enjoyment of a lingering,
feeble existence, We neglented, however, to state
that our friend Jemmy never recovel4q from the ef

this publication, containing an impartial
but necessarily abbreviated account of the
proceedings in Congress, including an au : .
