The following singular adventure of a man named John Colter, is taken from Mr. Bradbury's Travels in the Interior of North America. Colter came to St. Louis in May, 1810, in a sma, canoe, from the headwaters of the Missouri, a distance of 300 miles, which he traversed in thirty days. I sew him on his arrival, and ieceived from him en aecount of his adventures, after he had separated from Lewis aryl Clark's party. I shall relete one anecdote for its sin rularity. Uu the arrivel of the party at the head waters of the Missouri, Colter observing an appearance of abundance of heaver being there, got permission to remain and hunt for some time, which he did in company with a man of tie name of Dixon, whn had traversed the immense tract of country, from St. Louis to the heed-waters of the Missouri alone. Soon after, he separated from Dixon, and trapped in company with a hunter named Potts; and, aware of the hostility of the Blackfoot Indians, one of whom hail been killed by Lewis, they set their traps at night, and took them up eatly in the morning, remaining concealed doring the day. They were examining their trape•early one morn ing, in a creek about six miles from that branch of the Missouri, called Jefferson Fork, and were ascending in a eitnne, when they suddenly heard a greet noise, re sembling the trampling of animal-, ; but thee could not ascertain the fact, as the high perpendicular banks on each side oft he river impeded their view. Coiter pro nounced it to be occasioned by Indians, and advised an instant retreat, but was accused of cowardice by Potts who insisted that the noise was caused by buffeleet ; and they proceeded on. In a few minutes afterwards their doubts were removed, by a p irty of Indians linking their appearance ou both sides of the ere •Its tb the amount of five or six hundred, who beetteme t them to come ashore. As rct-eat was tObvimpossibk, C titer turned the head of the canoe ; and, at the moment of its touching, an Indian seized the rifle belonging to Potts ; bet Colter, who is a remarkably strong glen; immediately retook it, and hareled it to Putts ) AO re mained in the ca ioe, and, on receiving it, pushed off into the river. He had scarcely quitted the shore, when an a-row was sh tat fern, anti he cried out, " Colter, lam wounded I" Coster remonstrated with him on the folly of attemptin g to escape, and urged hint to corn, ashore. Instead of complying, he in• stantly let e led his rifle at the bonen, and ram hitn deed on the spot. Tnis conduct. situ 'tea its be was, may spoor to have been an net of madness, but it wits doubtle s the effect of sudden but sound reasoning ; for, if taken alive, he must have expected to be tortured to de th, according to their custom. He was instantly pierced with arrows so numerous, tha . ,,t to use Coltee's words, "he was wade a riddle al," Timey now seized Colter, stripped hin t entirely naked, and b •gan to consult on the manner in which he should be put to death. They were at fi-st inclined to set him up as a mark to shoot at, but the chief : tcter f ere d . an d se i z i ng him b y the shoulder, asise . P i him it h e cou ld run f as t ? C o l ter, who hid been some time amongst the Kee-ketso, or Crow r endiaits, had in a considerable degree acquired tee Bet-dam language, end was also well acqueinted with Emit in custom s ; he knew teat he had now to run for his life, with the dreadful odds of five or six hun dred against him, and those armed Indians ; he there fore cunningly replied that he was a very bad runner, although he was considered by the hunters as remark ably swift. The chief now commanded tee party to re main stationary, aed led Colter out on the prairie about three or four hundred yards, and released him, bidding him save himself if he could. At this instant the hor rid war-whoop sounded in the ears of poor Colter, who, urged with the hopes of preserving life, ran with a speed at which he himself was surprised. He proceeded tow trds the Jefferson Fork, having to traverse a plain six miles in bre idth, iunding with the prickly pear, on which he was every instant treading with his naked feet. He ran nearly belf-way across the plain, before he ventured to look over his shoulder, when he perceived that the Wiens were very much scattered, and that he had ,rained ground to a considerable distance from the main body ; but one Indian, who carried a seear, was much before all tee rest, an I not mere than one 'hun dred yards from him. A faint gleam of hope now cheered the heart ot Colter ; he derived confidence from the belief that escape was within the bounds of possibility ; but that confidence was nearly tafal to him, for he exerted hintselt to such a degree that the blood gusdeil from his nostrils, and soma almost covered !ore-part of his hotly. Ha hail new arrived within a milt of the river, when he distinctly heard the ap pelline, sound of footstspa close behied, and on looking over his shoulder perceived the Indian with a spear, which he was eviihnitly preparing to hurl, within a few feet of him. As a lest resource he suddenly stopped and turned round, with outsrretched arms; the sur prise of the action caused tee Indian, who stopped likewise, to stumble, and he on t•e spear, which broke in two. C eter insten ly seized the sharp part, with which he pinned him to the earth, and tileti con tinued he flieht. The foremast ot tte Ind a IS, on arriving at the place, stopped till others came up to join them, when they set up a hideous yell. Ev try moment of this time was improved by Celier; who, although fainting and exhausted, suc ceeded in gaining the skirting of the Cotton-tree wood, on the borders of the Fork, through which he ran and plunged into the river. Fortunately for bins, a lit le below this place was an islet's', against the upper part of which a raft of drifeeimber had loeged. He dived under the rift,and, :titer severel efforts, got his h , a I above water amongst the trunks of trees, covered over with smal cr wow) to the depth of several feet. Sc trcely had he secured himself who.) time ins arrived on the river, screeching and eat ing, as Colter expressed ir, " like so many devil," They were frequently on the raft during the day, and were seen through the chinks by Colter, who was con gratulating himself on his escape, until the idea arose that they might se' the rift on fire. In horrible sus pense he remained until night, when, hearing no more of the ludiiins, he dived under time raft, anti seam site fitly down the river to a coesideraide distrtn:e ; happyh r litre h i e n lauded, l;asi gc 01 ,e n: t i rctirav from t h e l e r 1 1 l A his situation, wis still dreadful; he was completely baked, under a burning sun—the soles of his feet were entirely filled with the thorns of the prickly pear—he was hungry, anti tut; had no o around m ean mea n s journey fr om Li s is F or t, on th e B ig h orn nranc h o f t h e him, ot.k ' a l n d g meet' although v e h n e d s a;s' w a Roche n but an American hunter wo u ld have despaired.

Th detection, it appeared, had been made by Mr. Golding Bird, the Satveying•General Examiner, and Messrs. Bullcn and Stevenson, the officers of excise. The still was in full work, and on a the most extensive which the officers hid ever met with. The proprietor of the place was immediately taken before the Lord Mayor, who fined him in the sum of 301., which he immediately paid. TRAVENON MINING ASSOCIA TION. COURT OF EXCHEQULR, Mar I. THE QUEEN V. LORD CHURCHILL. At the sitting of the Court this morning, judgment in this case was delivered by Mr. Baron Parke. It was a writ of intrusion brought to recover certain lands possessed by the de fendant in Oxfordshire. In January last the Attorney-Gene ral obtained an irder to change the venire into Hertfordshire, on his mere suggestion, and without any affidavit upon an .u -thority in 2d Meesom and Welsby. Afterwards Sir W. Fol ett. on the part of the defendant, moved to discharge the order. He obtained a rule nisi, which was argued very elaborately by the Att• racy and lieitor-General and Sir W. Follett last 1 erm. The point lay in a very narrow compass. The, e was no doubt that a subject had no such right, but the Crown had many undoubted prerogatives in :he conduct of suits. The only question was whether this was one ; of course, like all other cases, this one must be determined by precedents and the dictum of Judges. There was only one case of prece dent in a Writ of Intrusion—that was the King v. Parsons, and it was well known that that case was decided exparte, and under a mistake, occasioned by an inapplicable quceation of a case in Saville from Mr. Sergeant Marining's Exchequer practice In Comyn's Digest, D 85, it was laid down that " the King may lay his action in any county he pleases in any personal action," and that oictum had been held good by the Court. 'I he only paint was in what sense the word ' personal' was used. Now there seemed to be no doubt but that a writ of intrusion was a personal action—it was brought to recover damages —not the land, for the Crown in the contemplation of the law had never lost it. But the word personal' might mean such actions as were for the recovery of debts or dama ges to the person or personal effects, and in that sense a Writ of Intrusion was not a personal action. But it was said that such a construction of the word personal would give the Crown no prerogative at all. That was not correct, for there were statutes which ob'iged the subject to lay the vehue where the cause of action arose. There was a very rild statute mentioned by Mr. Tidd, as contained in the laws of Henry the First, but it was not found in the edition of the statutes published by the Commissioners of public records ; it provided that every one was to be tt judged try his peers, and of the same county." The 6th Richard H. was passed for the purpo-e of confining actions of debt, &c. to their proper counties ; that statute was evaded, and the 4th Henry V. was passed, wh ch directed attorneys to be sworn not to b ing action , in a foreign county. After that statute a prac tice grew up of pleading the impropriety of the venue in abate ment of the wt it even before the plaintiff had deflated, and then the defendant was allowed to • raverse the venue, and try the traverse by the country. The I ractiee of changing the venue upon motion was introduced upon the equity of the statute of Richard 11. But neither of these statutes bound the Crown, and consequently with respect t. - . 3 all t ersonal actions in the sense of transitory actions, tie Crown had a p r i v il ege w hi ch "...I it was probable t h a t was a ll the the Court subjectinten intended d d in not: ihe case of the King v. Webb, for it reported that rh - ..t was a motion by the defendant to change the venue frce:g Middlesex to London, on the ground that if there had been any conversion it was in London ; but the Court refused and said the Crown had the prerogative to try his personal action where he pleased. In the uncertainty attending incipal cases reported, and in the absence of any precedent whatever in an information of intrusion or other action termed lo al, the C iurt were of opinion that the Crown officers had failed to establish the right to the prerogative claimed. The rule would, therefore, be made ab °lute, but the Attorney. General, if he thought fit, might apply for a writ into anotl er county, upon a suggestion that the cause would not he in differently tried in Oxfordshire, as was the case in the only ap plication made to the Court in any writ of int. usion. Rule to discharge the order was made absolute. The Rev. Lion& Puller appeared at the Mansion-house on Thurs lay last before Alderman PIRIE and Sir PETER Lau- RIE, for the purpose of having the adjudication of th , se Ma gistrates in his ease against Mrs. Gully, who, it will be recol lected, came up from Cornwall to est .bush a mining company, and induced the Rev. Gentleman to give his note fo upon the untie. standing that she should get it cashed and give him a share of the proceeds and a certain number of shares in the scheme s•hich she meant to bring to maturity in the Lon don Share Market. Mr. C. Ph 1 ips, the Barrister, attended for Mrs. Gully, and Mr. Humphreys for the Rev. Gentleman, whose state ment of Thur day week attracted a number of jobbers to the Justice -room. Mr. Humph' eys submitted that the case was adjourned iii order that. Airs, Gully might have sufficient time to produce the deed of the Travenon mine, signed by the lord of the ma nor, and bearing other evidence of authenticity about it. He had only to inquire on behalf of his client whether such deed was in existence. Mrs. Gully said there was no actual deed, but there was an agreement for the mines. Mr. C. Phillips—There is a memorandum of an agree ment. Alderman PIRIE—The case was adjourned, Mrs. Gully promising to produce the deed. Mrs. Gully said that the whole correspondence with Mr. Plomer, the agent of ,he lord of the' manor, would show that she could obtain the deed when she wished. She had written to Cornwall upon the subject, but the lord of the manor was from home, and nothing else caused the delay. There was no deed actually signed, but a deed could be obtained as soon as a sufficient number of subscribers were obtained for the mines. The Rev. Mr. Buller, in answer to Alderman Pirie, de • Oared that he never lint signed any deed. Mr. Phillips—Mr. Buller, I ask you upon your oath, did you not give its.tructions to Mr. Plomer to put your name to the deed ? Mr. Buller—l solemnly swear I did not.. Mr. Phillips—Pray, Mr. Buller, have you not often, since vou passed the bill to Mrs. Gully, dined with that lady ? Mr. Buller—l admit that I have, but I provided the eatables. Mc. Phillips—What, did you provide upon any occasion ? Mr. Buller—Two capercailz•es, or black cocks of the wood. Mrs. Gully—Did you provide the wine? Mr. Buller—No, but I paid fir it. Mr. Phillips—Allow me to make one statement Nfrs. Gully is convinced that her mines are a Tema fide concern of value, and if the Rev. Gen , leman is discontented with his bargain, she is willing to return him his money, and that she has offered before. WILLIAMS V. LAWSON. The ATTORNEY -GENERAL appeased to show cause against a rule obtained by Mr. Kelly, which called upon the delmd ' :'nt to show cause why he should not deliver over to the plaintiff a copy of the issues; and also why an order for giving security for c sts should not be discharged. The plaintiff -aid he had been a surgeon in the navy, and had been improperly dismissed. He had made application to several Boards of Admiralty but unsuccessfully. In June, 1834, he petitioned the House of Commons—the petition was presented by Sir C. Codrington, and in doing so he made a speech very laudatory of the plaintiff. He was replied to by sir Jas. Graham and 111 r. Labouchere, two of the then Lords of the Admiralty, and in the Times of next day.appeared a report of the discussion. The plaintiff did not complain of any inac curacy in the report of the speeches of the two latter gentle men, but he alleged that the s p eec h of Sir E. Codrington had been cut short. Still the pla ntiff had slept upon his imazined wrongs, for it was not until January, 1835, that he commenced his action for an alleged libel in the P „. liamentary Report. The defendant pleaded three pleas- -first, not guilty ; secondly, that the Report was a fair and b r, ,ea fide account of what took place ; and, thirdly, a ,justification that the charges imputed to the p'aintiff were true. Jr, 1836 the defendant was ready to try, but the plaintiff did not zo on, and as he had no known residence in England, the Cr ju - r t, on the application of the defendant, made an order fo y costs. He took no s t eps, say i ng that at that 6 ge „ rit aie he en of ent ered ioto the ser v i ce o f t h e Q ueen of Spain for two tired in 1837 ; but he took no steps in the years. He re when it was fou n d th a t t h e attorney had cause until 1840, lost, a i l the cause. He did not oppose the iu: the papers in y inp a d t o the defendant `- Alderman Pinar —That may be so ; but here is a letter from he c'zurchwai don of Helston, in a , rnwall, stating that the mine had been abandoned two years ago, and that he was not aware of any new Company being formed. Sir. Philhps—That letter is no evidence. Alts. Gully—lt is not true that it hat been abandoned, but 10,000/. had he. n laid out upon it, and a vast quantity of tin had been obtained. Sir PETER LAURIE—.IIIr. Buller, you are senior fellow of King's College, Cambridge, and no doubt have obtained high honours, but you are not by any means a match for Mrs. Gully. Mr. Buller—l admit that lam not. Mr. Phillips—Mrs. Gully will b' glad to get rid of the Bey. Gentleman altogether by laying him his 501. Mrs Gully_Oh. certainly, most happy, upon getting back my transfer of the shares. He shall have h s 501 in a week. Alderman PIRIE—Why not give him a draft on your banker for the amount? If you are the owner o. mines it is but rea sonable to suppose that you keep a banking account. Mr. Phillips—lt is not every lady that has 50/. in her pocket, and my client has no hanker. Mrs. Gully—l shall have to write to Cornwall for the money, and he can have it certainly in a fortnight. Alderman PIRIE—Are you content, Sir. Buller? I sup pose all you want is your money. Mr. Buller—Quite content. She shall have three weeks to pay it. Sir PETER LAURIE--Very well. Now, Mt Buller, I must say that you are not a little impl cat din citiiip this mining Company. The fact of your eating ea, cocks of the w oo d, an d d r i nking ":-reallzies, or black w shows that you had some ir i nd . ale st this lady's house, strange affair altogether. * n the business, which is a system of establishing ; a singular ,11r.

BEMARLE-STREET, By FlRE.—About a quarter-past nine o'clock on Friday the inhabitants of Albemarle-street were thrown into a state of the utmost alarm by the cries of fire, at the same time the numerous persons who were residing at Stewirt's Hotel were rushing out of the above establishment' A vivid blaze of flame very soon told what had occurred, which was burning with great rapidity at the uppe r w i n d ow on the north side o the house. Several persons were des, etched it= all directions for the engines, and in a short time the Li is' don brigade engine f, om King-street, Chandos-street , the County, West of England, and ethers, were upon the spot, as well as a large body of the C division of , p o liee. Unfortunat.ly no wa er could be obtained, and in a short space of time this splendid establishment, which cons steel of two of the largest sized houses, and close to the Earl of Man-field's, was in one body of flame. The fire literally rata from fluor to floor, like a flash of lightning. At the 0- piration of ab , ut half an hour water was procured, but the whole of the h 'tel, from the basement to the top, with the whole of the plendid fu niture, was all in flames, and the de vouring element was rapidly extending its progress. The en' gin's, h ,, wever, had so placed themselves, particularly the West of England (which was close to the pavement and is front of the hotel), that as soon as water was procured. irn" mense torrents were poured on . the flames, and the effect in 3 short time was visible, as the fire was considerably damped. Previously to this it had extended its ravages to the adjoining houses, as well as those in Dover-street, which abutted on the btck of the hotel. The exertions of the firemen were speedily crowned with success, as the fire. with regard to the promisee , was soon got under, with comparatively slight damage.. great number of other engines arrived, the greatest portion of which were got to play; but, we regret to state, not a vestige of any part of the property was saved. As to how the fire oil ginated no account could be obtairi-d which was in any de gree satisfactory, in consequence of the confusion which pre wiled. We understand that the whole of the building and fur niture was insured, the loss of which is estimated at several thousand pounds. FIRE AT THE CARLTON CLUB HOUSE.- on Friday morning, a few hours before three o'clock, consider ab!e alarm was occasioned in Pall-mall by the oceurr.nace of a fire at the extensive mansion occupied by the Carlton, Club. The discovery was made by police constable 23, C, who- ob serving flames at one of the windows of the first floor at the east-end, nearest to the Reform Club-house, instantly sprang his rattle and gave the alarm. Two engines from the County Fire-office were in an incredibly short space of time brought to the spot, as was also the St. James's parochial eogiz e, but their cervices were not required, the flames, by the exe r tiong of the servants of the establishwent and the police, beinx sub dued with the destruction only of the window-curtains, s,lshav and glass. The fire was, it is stated, occasioned by one oi 7 the servants having placed a lighted candle too near the curtains. GOLD WATCHES, LONDON-MADE , A.
