Gently occurred in louisiana;
An affray also came off recently, as the
same correspondent writes us, in Raymond
Kinds county, Mississippi which for seri-
Gus one, was rather amusing. The Sheriff
had a process TO serve on q man OF the name
of Bright, and ia, consequence OF some diff

proper to commence the service by the aPvE>

Bright thereupon foored his adversary
and, wrestling his cowhide from him, applied
1t to It's owner to the extent of at least five
hundred lashes, meanwhile threatening to
shoot the first bystander who attempted to in
terfere. The Sheriff was carried home in a
state of insensibility, and his life has since
been despaired of. The Mayor ofthe place.
however, issued his warrant, and started
three of the Sheriff's deputies in pursuit Of
the delinquent, but the latter, after keeping
them at bay till they found it impossible to
arrest, surrendered himself to the magistrate
by whom he was bound over to the next Cir

sIn regard to the Sub Treasury schemexI
have endeavored to give to the subject all the
consideration its Importance demanded, and
/ / have not been able to convince myself that
such scheme would best promote the inter-
est Of the country and having long since
determined that no party consideration
should ever induce me to vote for any thing
which believed would operate against the
| best interests of my country, / have felt no
hesitation in voting against the measure. I
cannot believe that q majority Of the honest,
disinteTested, and unsophisticated freemen
of this district, are in favor of a measure
] which increases executive patronage-ln-
creascs the number Of federal Officers-in-
creases public expenditures, and at the same
time renders less safe and secure the money
of the Government. -. sSia s1,.t- ~ ,'ls4 i. .s,5f
