as usual, rich and strikingly illustrative of the
subjects represented. The frst, illustrating the
passage from St. Mark in which the Saviour says,

mi,ted and will continue probably, 10 a

desperadoes that have so long infested our
nation, shall be brough, TO justice.
In addition 10 the acts of last week. there
have none others of particular kind oc-
Cured, that we are advised Of at present.
Major Bonneville, U. >. A. arrived al
Evansville, some time last week. having
been dispatched from Fort Smith, by Gen.
Arbuckle, 10 inquire into the state of at
fairs in that section. Col. McKisick, U.
s. Agent for the Chcrokees, and Captain
Boone, with from thirty to forty Dragons,
are also at the same place, or in the vicinity.
Capt. Boone was ordered from Fort Gibson
for the purpose Of preventing any further
efflson of blood, and to afford protection
to any person that might desire it. These
movements of the troops were brought
about, we understand; through reprcsen-
tations made to Gen. Arbuckle, by one
George w. Paschall, Of Van Buren,. Arks.,
and without the knowledge or solicitation
of the Agent, who, we believe. is the usual
and legal organ through which f3h,ements
of the kind are made. We are, however,
glad of their location on the line. under
the command Of Capt. Boone, prudent
and gen.lemanly officer, as they will pre-
vent any unnecessary officiousness from
beyond, that might otherwise occur.
But even in the absence Of the troops.
the citizens of Arkansas have nothing,
whatever, to fear from the Cherokees, in
their vicinity, as they would. under no
circumstances, perform any act q disturb
the relations of peace and friendship 50
happily existing.
Within two or three miles Of Evansville.
there are from forty to sixty Cterokees,
some of whom, it is said. were concerned
in killing James Starr and Rider. and who
have been in pursuit Of Tom Starr and
three or four oI his associates. The com
pany is doing nothing.
A delegation Of four men were sent Up
yesterday. from this place, 10 inquire into
the condition Of things, and 10 prevail upon
the company TO disperse and reium to their
duties. as good and orderly citizens. This
we hope and believe they will do.

TARIFF CoSvESTIoS.-The democracy of Penn

daysburgh, in November, for the purpose Of pro-
testing against any alteration, by Congress, in the
present revenue law. Ex-Gov. Porter presided.
If these Pennsylvania locos had understood
their true interest previous to the last Presidential
election, there would have been no necessity for
holding this convention, and the modification Of
seeing the tariff reduced by Congress, notwith-
standing their solemn protests, would have been
saved them. But, they suffered themselves to
be wheedled into the support Of man whose
views in relation to tariff were ever at variance
with the interests of Pennsylvania, they have no
right to complain. They should stick to the man
of their choice ''like tick to dead Sheep" and
swallow with as good grace as possible every dose

1t is stated by the Washington cores
pondent of the New York Journal of CON-
merce, in his continued speculations on the
annexation of Cuba 10 the United States,
that the people of that Island are decidedly
in favor OF such step, and that should
any thing disturb the authority OF Spain in
that quarter, they will come out boldly Tor
the measure. As an evidence of this dis
position, the writer states that the people
of Cuba, alarmed at the prospect of a
change of masters, sent A secret agent 10
Mr.. Monroe, when President, with pro-
position tor annexing the island to this
country. The proposition was rejected by
Mr.. Monroe, as being, at the time, un-
called for and impolitic; but the fac. shows
pretty plainly to whom the island must
belong, if Spain once loses possession.

asked him-"Do you intend 10 give me

"what kind of satisfaction do you wantl'
Carson who had his hands in his pockets, at
this time, drew one of them out, and as
the Times says '.made gesture, and was
about to rejoin," when Wadsworih imme-
diaiely drew out a six barrelled pistol. and
fired, the ball breaking rib and prefora-
ting the heat. He fell and di ID in two
minutes.
Mr.. Wadswoiih expected an attack from
the deceased, and was armed with bowie
knife besides the pistol. Captain Carson
was entirely without arms.
