BLOODY AFFRAY.-At Louisville, Ky.
on the night of the 14th inst. a bloody af
fray occurred between David M. Mclntire,
of the firm of Mclntire & Brother, and
Mr. Wiirden Pope Mercer, a clerk at Greg
ory & Co.'s lottery office, resulting from
a previous difficulty. A little after mid
night, the parties met accidentally, and Mr.
Mercer shot Mr. Mclntire in the head with
a pistol. Mr. Mclntire was taken to Walk
er's coffee-house, his brain oozing in large
quantities from his skull. All possible aid
was rendered him, but from the first, his
speedy death was obviously inevitable.—

and Evans, (Whigs) and Westcott, (Loco) voted

was right when he described the War party as

On Saturday the Resolutions as amended in the
Senate, were taken up in the House, and Mr.
Owen moved the following amendment :
Strike out the words, "and immediately
directed to renewed efforts for the amica

disputes in respect to said territory," and
in lieu thereof insert "directed to the speedy
aqustnient of all their differencmand dis

Also to strike out the second resolution,
and in lieu thereof to insert:

the President of the United States is au

ish Government the notice required by the
said second article for the abrogation of the
said convention of the 6th of August, 1827.
The yeas and nays' having been called, Mr.
Owen's motion was agreed to by a vote of 99 to
57. The Resolutions as amended were then adopt

The _Bill for extending the jurisdiction of the
United States to Oregon, has passed the llcuise of
Representatives. The bill provides_for the exten
sion of the laws of lowa to the territory in qui!,
tion, reserving to British subjects all the rights
and jurisdiction which they derive from the con
vention. It does not define the boundary of Ore
gon, but legislates for the American citizens •vho
dwell beyond the Rocky Mountains. It also ex
tends our Indian system, and our post office system
to that country, and provides for block houses and
military authority to protect the emigrants from
the United States who cross the mountains.
The bill passed the House by a vote of ill to
.10. It i's supposed that the Senate will amend it
very materially.
Foreign News--Arrtral of the
Caledonia.
the preceding columns will be
found some interesting intelligence from
Europe, including the views of the leading
British Statesman upon the Oregon ques
tion as expressed in Parliament, brought
by the steamship Unicorn. On Monday,
the steamer Caledonia arrived at Bost
on with advices 15 days later, but bring
ing but little additional news excepting the
intelligence of the complete triumph of the
British arms in two great battles against
the Sikhs in India.
The slaughter of the Sikhs Was terrible.
Ten or twelve thousand of these brave
fellows and nearly two thousand English
troops were slain and wounded.
This battle and this slaughter, added to
the slaughter of twenty thousand Sikhs in
a previous battle has resulted in the surren
der, in full sovereignty, of the territory,
hill and plain, between the Sutlej and
the Beas rivers, and the payment of one
and a half crore of rupees as indemnity for
the expenses of war—the entire regula
tion and control of both banks of the - river
Sutlej, and such other arrangement for set
tling the future boundaries of the Sikh State
and the organization of its administration
as might be determined on at Lahore. The
greatest activity continues in all the dock
yards in England, and the recruiting for
the army is still going on with great spirit.
6000 soldiers were ordered to India, 3000
of which were to proceed by the overland
route. It is now stated that that order will
be rescinded.- There is a rumor current
that an additional number will proceed to'
Canada. : There appears to be a stagna
tion in the corn markets, in• consequence
of the' movementS in Parliament relative to
the corn laws. Indian corn continues to
arrive-in England andgain popularity.. The
English Tariff and.the Irish coercion bill
absorb the proceedings in Parliament.—
The. Polish revolution appears to be aean
end. Poor unfortunate Poland.
There is no news of importance from

By the aid of the previous question, the
debate terminated, and the motion to lay

carried. jrzi„
Attentpl nt Kidnapping.
fri - The town of Emmitsburg was thrown into
quite an excitement,on Saturday week, by an at
tempt to kidnap a colored boy of that place. The
boy, who had kept a barber shop, was knocked
down in his shop, seized and tied by a man of the
name of Thomas Finnegan, who was dragging him
to a carriage in waiting to take him to Baltimore
on the pretext that he was the slave of a Mr. Ke
lly of Baltimore. While thus dragging him, a
number of persons collected, who, feeling indig
nant at the treatment of of the boy, interfered and
rescued him from the hands of those who were a
bout thui to dispose of him. Public feeling was
much excited and it was with difficulty -it could
be restored.
This Finnegan is the same individual, that ac
quired so much notoriety in this region last fall
by the outrage committed in this county, in kidnap
ping and carrying into slavery, a family of freo
colored persons. The Emmitsburg Star states
that upon its being hinted to Finnegan that some
of the citizens of that place contemplated remov
ing him to Gettysburg, the villain decamped in
double-quick time !
Look Out ;
IG - The Harrisburgißeadjig, and oth
er papers have recently contained I9iotices of nu
merous burglaries committed in those towns.—
The last Chambersburg Whig states, that that
place has also been visited by "if branch of
the firm." On Friday morning, the offices con
nected with the Court House in Chambersburg,
were found to have been forcibly entered and
plundered of such articles as were available to
the villains. Two suspicious looking strangers,
who had been stopping at one of the taverns, and
who left in haste, were suspected. The Commir
sioners issued a.handbill offering a reward of $5O
for their apprehensior,and on Sunday the suspect
ed individuals were arrested at Burnt Cabins, in
Bedford county.
Tito Crops.
117 - The accounts from all parts of the country
as to the growing grain crops, have been very fa
vorable. have understood that in this county
the grain is generally will set and promises an a
bundant harvest. It is feared, however, that it
may be materially injured by a continuative ut the
presen't dry weather.
CO'Prof. Owls-nun, of Yale College. recently
met with a narrow escape of his life by\aii explo
sion of a glass tube, whilst engaged in some scien
tific experiments. The explosion ‘vas very violent
and did considerable injury to the appuratu, iii

Rl 4 -14,Lthe TJ. S. Senate on Wednesday, Mr. \Cc h
sTsa, ;10r—remarking upon the uneasiness of pnb
lie sentimearising from an apprehension of
of the passage tiiite.Subtreasury Bill by the Sen
ate, addressed severalinquiries to Mr. Lxwis,
Chairman of the CommitteeO'n.Kinance, to whom
the BilLhad been referred, as to ihe4 , tentled ac
tion of the Committee upon the ineas'Ore, Mr.
Idavis replied that he could not say at what time ,
the Subtreasury Bill would be reported back to
the Senate. The Committee had determined to
give precedence, in the action of the Senate, to
several Bills of a remedial nature designed to pave
the way for the introduction of the specie clause,
"To prevent any consequence from the too sudden
introduction of the Subtreasury, they had, after a
full deliberation, with entire unanimity, deter
mined that the specie clauses should, in no event,
be reported to go into effect sooner titan the first
of January next."
Mr. Webster ngnitt.
117 - In the H. S. Senate, on Wednesday, the Res
olution of Mr. Jarnagin, calling for the items of
expenditure of the secret service fund, coming up,
Mr. Webster took the floor, and after expressing !
his warm approval of the views urged by the Pres
ident in answer'to the House Resolution upon ,
the same subject, once more referred to the charg
es of misdemeanor in office that had been so reek
lessly preferred against himself by Mr. Ingersoll
and others. As to the resolution of inquiry, so
far as it concerned. himself, with a full conscious.
ness that the proposed information would furnish
a full vindication of his course while Secretary of
State, he could have wished that it had been fully &
freely responded to by the President. But he did
not wish to see an important principle, and nn im
portant law, violated and broken for any personal
convenience in that respect. Mr. Webster con
chided as follows:
And I here say, sir, that all declarations
averments, statements, or insinuationsomade
any where, or by any body, which impute
'perversion, misapplication, or waste of the
public funds, committed or made by me
while Secretary of State, are utterly ground
less and untrue. And I will conclude with
one remark, the bearing of which I will
leave to the Senate and to the country.
Whoever charges me with having mis
applied or wasted the public funds, while
in the Department of State, has eitherseen
the papers, or has, in sonic other way, ob
tained knowledge on the subject, or he has
not. If he has seen no papers, and has no
knowledge, then his imputations are pure
ly wanton and slanderous. If he hasseen
the papers, or has any knowledge, then lie
would be sure to state what lie knows, if
he knows any thing to sustain him in his
charge. Silence, under such circumstan
ces, is conclusive that he knows nothing;'
because he is under no obligation of secrecy,
and, in absence of all other proof, he would
of course tell all he knew, if lie knew any
thing which could, in the slightest degree,
bear him out. The charge, therefore,
was either made in utter ignorance of any
facts to support it, or else with the knowl
edge that the facts which do exist would,
if made known, entirely disprove it. As
to the source of this miserable vituperation,
I have nothing to say. I ain afraid I shall be
thought to have paid too much attention to
it already. Sir, I leave the author of these
slanders where lie is— I leave him in the
worst company I know, of in the world—l
leave him with himself.
After a few remarks from Messrs. Jarnagin,
.Westcott, Mangum, Allen, and others, the Reso
lution was put to cote, in order to ascertain the
views of the Senate upon the propriety of making
the proposed call for information, and promptly

and a large amount of money. Another

RIOT AT BitooK Li:N.—The New York corres
pondent of the Philadelphia North American, wri
on Monday afternoon, says:
"Brooklyn is under arms. Some two
or three hundred of the Irish and German
laborers on the Atlantic:. Dock have been
"standing out" for higher wages. The
proprietor of the works declined acceding
to their demands, and 'determined not to
re-engage any of those who had united in
the strike—while these determined, on
their part, that no others should go to work
on any terms. .The families of the turn
outs occupy shanties on the works, and
the proprietors commenced ejecting them
bj , sum Moning legal process on Saturday."
The New York COmmercial, writing at two
o'clock on Monday afternoon, says :
"An immense -- crowd has assembled in
the neighborhood of the docks, the turn outs
mustering in full force. The U. S. troops
are out and under arms, forming, we be
lieve, a cordon round the works, and 'plant
ed iii double or hollow lines through the
district. In this disposition of force they
are aided by the citizen troops, and we un
derstand a German troop have gone over
to the scene. Cannon arc also planted in
a commanding position, and the most effec
tive means arc taken to defend those who
are willing to work, and to protect the prop
city of the contractors. • Great excitement
prevails, which will not be allayed until the
qemovals are of arid the men allowed
paaceably to pursue their avocations."
As was oir expected,. the Whig rever
ses in Conneclicitt are crowned over and
made the most - of b3;" - the, „ locos. "The Dem

SANTA ANNA.-By accounts from Mexi
co, and from J-lavana, it seems more than
probable that Santa Anna will soon make
an attempt to recover his supreme authori
ty in Mexico. A movement in his favor
was expected daily to commence in Vera
Cruz, the inhabitants of which appear to
be disaffected towards Paredes' government
and averse to a war with .the U. States,
probably because they Would be sufferers
by it. The condition of things in Mexico
; is of so confused and uncertain a character,
that it is extremely difficult to speculate up
;on them. We await with interest the next
intelligence, for it is more than probable
that it will be of importance.
LATEST NEWS FROM THE ARMY' OF OC
CIIPATION.—The Galveston Gazette of the
11th inst. has advices from Mexico to the
30th March, by an arrival from the Brasos
Santiago. The main body of the army
was lying immediately opposite Matanfo
ras. The Mexicans had withdrawn all
their troops from the Texas side of the
river, without firing-a gun, and the opin
ion was prevalent that there would he no
lighting. The report that Gen. Taylor
had removed the army from before Mata
moras to a position further down, proves
to be mere rumor.

agents in every place where it is advertised
and Sold.
