continued his efforts, notwithstanding the
party had been strengthened by the pres
ence of a gentleman, who resided with
DR.. HUNT, and who had also been rous-
ed by Mrs. rs. cries for help and it
was not until after the arrival of two con-
| stables, and hearing their voices as they
entered the passage in front, that he de-
sisted and fed. Had they approached
! the house by the rear, the Negro would
have been arrested but, as it was, he
escaped and has not yet been apprehen-
ded. During the whole time that he was
endeavoring to force second entrance

| ferocious threats, and uttering tissue Of
4 jargon, much of which was a literal repe.
tition of the language addressed to the
Negroes by the incendiary publications
above referred to-. Believing that his
bloody purpose was in part at least, if
not altogether, the effect of those publi-
cations, and that such deeds must be the
natural consequence of their dissemina-
ton, we have concluded, not however,
without some hesitation, to make the oc-
curence public, as well for the informa-

From the Lexington Observer July 2a.
We understand that when Madame
Parthena returned to the s'good Colon.
ep' instead of being received with
"fond embraces" she wasssprstty con-
siderably scowgsd," g. reduced from
the parlor TO the kitchen. This would
seem oindicate that the sgood Colon
eP' had banished all those kind feel
ings, with which it is said his bosom
once overlooked. 1t is also said that
Master Romulus, has in consequence
of some supposed knowledge he had
of the intended elopement of Madame
Parthena with the Rev. Mr.. Jones,
(Choctaw,) and his failure to disclose
the conspiracy TO his father, has been
reduced to the station Of an ox.driyer.
That is cruel too cruel ; for probably
the poor boy was badly treated by
his step-mo,her, Gas boys sometimes
are, and was willing to get rid Of her
apon any terms.
Shocking Disaster.-Ths Cincin-
matt Gazette mentions that the steam
boat Rob Roy, onher way up from New
Orleans, on the 10th ult. about fifteen
miles from New Madrid, struck snag
which caused her to twist in such a
manner as to break one of her branch
pipes, and scalded ten or twelve per-
sons, Of whom four had died, and two
more not expected to recover at the
same time number of persons leaped
| overheard, of whom three we're drown.

silt is remarkable that with all their
experience of disaster and defeat, the
wings cannot learn to fight one thing
at time, but mix up all questions
together, and thereby bring their con-
tests to an issue before the people are
prepared to act in them. Many of the
wings are 10 this manner unconscious
Iiy doing more for Van Buren, at this
I very moment than his most ardent
friends. The true policy Of the wings
both as respects their Presidential feel
iugs and views OF state policy, is to
support Governor Wolf; & we are sus.
tanned in this opinion by the most in
telligent Of their own party in the state
as well as in this county. IF Coo. WoLf
should be reelected, Of s0hich zoe haze
no doubt, THIS STATE WILL GO A .

! TALcAHUANA.-T This town, which was
lately destroyed by an earthquake. the
people are buslly engaged in rebuilding.
J The Spaniards in that country say, earth
quakes do not visit them but once in a
century, therefore they feel confidence
that they shall not again be disturbed
during the present generation.
