SOMETHING VERY AMusING.-Locofoco Meet
ing in Frdnhlin.-In the Boon's Lick Demo
Graf of June I'd, we find the proceedings of q
meeting Of Locofocos in New franklin. When
this number Of the Democrat came 10 hand we
determined to copy il into our paper for The amuse.
ment oil our readers, the whole proceedings; but
want OF space obliges US to give merely an ex-
tract. 1t seems that they had two meetings. AT
the first, committee was appointed to consider
the charge we had made, that some OF the Locos
Of franklin got into froIic on the receipt of the
news of Gen. Harrison's DEATH and to report up.
on it at subsequent meeting. At the second,
their report was read and adopted with much gray
ity. Here is an extract from it:
"The committee have fully examined into all
the circumstances in connec ton with the above
false statements made by the Editor OF the Oh.
server, and so far from their being even a color
of truth in his statement, there is not shadow Of
foundation for a statement so made, and that the
statement made by the aforesaid Editor Of the Oh.
server, is base fabrication, emanatng from a
most foul, corrupt, viIlainous and lying heart,
prompted by the most mean, black and sordid pas.
sion, which belongs to the nature Of man.
"He who steals our money steals trash it is
something nothing;
1t was ours, it is his, and has been slave to thou
sands;
But he who filches from US our good name,'
Is not only thief, but villain of the deepest
dye;
He has stolen not only our all,
But that which he can never give,
And which is wholly useless to himself.
And il the author Of the base fabrication and SLAM
derous libel upon the Democrats Tor as he pleased
TO call them Locos) Of Franklin, was not alike
destitute of honor and shame, his cheek would
crimson to the blush, but it cannot his whole soul
has become calous, stepped in (aisehood, and is
impervious 10 every ray Of truth and Justice. 30
shame! where is thy blush? o honor where i:
thy hiding placer
Emphaticaly good! For the Locos Of New
franklin to be kicking up dust about their NOR
al character, is the best joke we have heard lately
Don't kill yourself with laughing, Cady.
For the proof, direct, positive and unequivoca
proof that our statement was true, we refer ouI
readers to Messrs. Pleasant Wilson, Francis
Brown, and Tompkins Buckhart.
The Locos Of Franklin will permit us to assure
them, that we heed not their idle threats Of per
sonal violence.

THE NEW SPEAKER.

The National Intelligencer of June 1st
says: The new SPEAKER of the House of
Representatives is gentleman of the high
est personal responsibility, and sterling
and unvarying Wing. He has served as a
Member of the House of Representatives
from the 9th district of Kentucky in the
three last Congresses, and has had therefore
an ample practical acquaintance with the
Rules of the House and with Parliamentary
Law. He will discharge the arduous du-
ties of his station,,we doubt not, with abili-
ty, as we are sure he will with integrity and
frmness.
Those Wing friends who may have in
dividually entertained preference for
other candidates for the office have every
reason to be satisfied that the choice final,
ly fell upon one so worthy of it.
AS mark of respect no more than due
to their late Chairman of the Committee Of
Ways and Means, the present Opposition
Qately the majority in the House gave theil
votes for Speaker unanimously to the Hon
JOHN w. JONES, of Virginia.

A PAINFUL SCENE IN FLORIDA.

A correspondent in the New York Her
ald writing from Jacksonville, Florida, I'M
der date of the 18th ult., furnishes the fol-
lowing painful sketch:
Day before yesterday, a party Of In
dams, who, it appears, had been lurking in
the vicinity, attacked the house of William
Barber, on Brandy branch, about thirty
miles from this, and, after killing Mr.. Bar
Der by shooting him twice through the
body, scalped him, and then stabbed him a
number of times, stripped him of his clothes,
and left him dead. His wife was at little
distance from the house, at the cow-pen,
about to milk her cows, when the report of
the rifles startled her, and, looking up, she
saw a young Indian within the distance of
twenty feet of her, standing on a log, with
| his gun trailing in his hand. She sprang
towards her husband, and the young Indian
did not modest her, though he could have
killed her on the spot. Her husband see
ing her come into danger, begged her for
Gods sake to save herself by flight, for, sale
he, Il am done; save yourself and your chill
dren.' She did fly, and as she turned away
from the partner of her Joys and sorrow;
on earth, he fell back on the ground, his hanC
grasped convuIsively some pine straws OF
the ground, and his spirit sped, to God tina
gave it. By this time the Indians were il
the house, and were plundering it of what
ever they could carry of, when a littl'
daughter of Mr.. Barber, rushed in anon!
them, and selling her infant brother tina
was left by his mother when she went ou
she hurried off in triumph with the innocen
in her arms. The Indians did not see he
nor the infant till she had it already out
! side the door; one of them gave loud We
: and commanded her to stop, but fear Onl
t lent her wings to fly for safety, and the say
:. age was too greedy for plumber to follow.
0 Mrs. Barber, with her children, hastene
c away from the scene of danger, and 500

;. place, and who returned to the house whic
: the Indians had just left.

MIR. BENTON IN THE VOCATIVE

Amongst the proceedings Of the Senate
on the lst inst, we read the yeas and
nays upon the motion of Mr.. Pctticoat
Allen, of Ohio, to strike out the words
"President of the United States" in official
communications with Mr.. Tyler, and find
our distinguished Senator in very small
crowd. Forsaken by Buchanan, Calhoun,
King and number of other distinguished
and even less distinguished men of his own
late party, he is left in minority of tc
80, to growl at the title of the distin
guished statesman who declined to SPEAK
to him, or have any thing TO do with hin
while occupying seat as Senator OIL
subsequently as Vice President. Such il
now the position of Missouri in relation
TO the administration: Senator whose
arrogance and meanness excludes hin
from the regards and association of tn
high-minded and honorable of all parties.
The following is the vote:

THE MESSAGE.

We are charmed-absolutely charmed
with this frank, perspicuous and truly re-
publican document. There is not a word
in it which we would desire to have out of
it-and it omits nothing which it was in
any wise necessary to bring before Con-
gress at the present special session.
Its political sentiments are those Of an
old jackson man, who kept straight on
instead of following the lead of Van Bu-
rcn and Benton in their federal strides
to power and patronage, and, as such, Is
not only eminently satisfactory and graft
fying to that division of the late Wing
party, but is destined to enlist in its sup
port the sound and sensible portion of the
democrats who mistakingly opposed the
election of the lamented Harrison. OPP
position to Ty1ers administration can have
nothing now but the merest factiouS feel
ing to 60 upon-in the west especially,
where the great body of the people are
democratic republicans, and will read in
the message before them the creed they
have been taught and believed in from in
fancy.
Not the creation of Bank 'Similar"
to the late U. S. Bank, but one with "due
restrictions will receive the assent of the
President, as it will of large majority of
the people-in the State of Missouri as
we'll as in nearly all, if not in all the other
States. Any other ought to be, as it will
be, uetoed, by President Tyler, and as it
would have been by President Harrison.
The recommendation to cut loose the
land revenue from the general government
and give it to the States, according to our
engagement at the period of adopting the
present federal constitution, is very prop
erly connected with suggestions to prevent
its abstraction from unadjusting the princi,
pies of the Tariff compromise of 1903; and
our land-hobby Senator is at last officially
informed that there is nothing in this act
of sheer justice to the States, incompati
BILE with the passage of "aH necessary pre-
emption la,rs" or reduction of the price
where Justice or propriety requires it.
We have not room, to-day, for further
comment, nor to add more than that we
rejoice that Thomas IL. Benton is un
horsed by the message of JOHN TYLER
If he can manage to stump up some new
hobby, and any portion of the people o.
Missouri choose to let him saddle then
with it, and ride them-why, it is matter
of fancy, or taste, with which we have
nothing to do. We shall be content
along with what VIC believe will be toune
to be east majority of the voters of TIT
State and the Union, to support the ad
ministration of John Tyler so long as hi
writes such messages as the one before u
and lives up to them. The Federallsts-
we mean the leaders here and elsewhere
who profess democracy while practising
the reverse will shortly have the sincerit,
of their principles attested by being re
quired to answer aye or nay? to the sup
port of the doctrines and purposes of tn
present tolerant, upright and enlightcne
executive.
