Works in Tsnnsssss-Disastrous Effects Of the
late Flood in the Cumberland Weather, &c. &c.
Considerable excitement has prevailed in town
to-day, in regard to transaction which occur
red IN the lower House of the Legislature last
night, Immediately after its adjournment
Mr. Whitesides, of Hamilton county, was en-
gagged In conversation with General Pepper, of
Robertson county, when he was assaulted by Mr..
Williams, Representative from Knox who made
a pass at the former with billet of wood. which
was wrested out of his hands by bystander.
The parties then /" closed in" and had severe
struggle, which afforded much amusement to the
lockers on. In the course of the ARRAY, pistols
and dirks were drawn and presented, at which
stage of the affair, to prevent bloodshed, the
spectators interfered, and the belligerents were
separated.
The difficulty originated in a newspaper dis.
cussion which has been going on for some time
between the two, in relation TO the course of Mr.
w, In the late Senatorial election, which re-
suited In the election of Hon. John Bell. Much
severe language was made use of, aud this meet
ing was the consequence. Comment is unne-
cessary.
A mountain of slick has lately been discovered
IN this State, near Huntsville, Sumner county,
which Is pronounced by the State biologists to
De the finest IN the Union A bill Is before the
House tor the incorporation of company for the
manufacture Of glass, and Tennessee bids fair to
outrival any of her sister States in the manufac.
ture OF this important article.
The effects OF the late disastrous flood are still
apparent on every side. The damage is far great
er than of any food which has preceded. From
careful observation, have ascertained that over
four hundred houses in this city were inundated,
and many of them lifted from their foundations,
and upon the subsding of the waters were crush
ed to atoms. The suffering consequent has been
great.
The weather is very cold and wet for the sea-
son.
The market in cotton and tobacco is uncom-
monty dull. A few sales of the former at 81
&C., and OF the latter at prices varying from 81
IS to 80 49, shall keep you advised OF every
thing of Importance. ALTAMONr.

Riots In HsrUbrd-Railroad Bridge Rebuilt.

R'ess In Hsrtfbrd-Edilroad Bridge Rebuilt.
The Birney-smalg amation.a abolition paper,
published In this city by Burleigh, yclept the
Charter ak,appeared yesterday with column of
attack upon Lieut.. Woodhouse, who has return
ed home from Mexico, very ill, to recruit his
health-and upon his cordial reception by his
fellow citizens. TO give your readers an idea of
the baseness and malignity of Burleigh upon one
of the finest young men in New England, mo-
rally and otherwise, send you the following
extracts:
This young man, whose unfortunate paucity Of
brains or Of his moral sense led him upon
been fortunste enough TO vhst hr.ns he
ried away with him. and Tuesday last brought them
back to Hartford under blue cloth fatigue Gap Hs
nitentary A few months since he citizen Of
Hartford not very widely known nor much noted whore
known remarkable for neither talent learning piety
nor phianthropy-a common, hum drum. clever, sort
Of parsonage not ovestocked with brains ballast
of He volunteered in piratical and infamous
war, SO"
These extracts send to show that there was
just cause, if ever, for mob. He abuses in
most Infamous manner the liberty of the press,
and has proved himself to be neither a gentle
upon law-respectlng citizen, and who had been
engaged successfully in maintaining the law as
it is, Burleigh puts himself without the pale of
all law, and any claim to its protection.
The mob, several hundred in number, about
IL o'clock, broke in his office windows, IS State
street, took down all his signs and destroyed
them, and broke in his Office door, to prevent his
types defamlng any more of our citizens when
the owner OF the types, Mr.. Tracy, informed
them that they belonged to HIM, and had !, for
months The mayor OF the city also told them
lence, and dispersed Then they proceeded to
the house in which he lives upon hire but he
kept out of their way, else he would have had a
ride in =" Captain" Keeney''s vehicle, drawn by
four oxen, and been politely helped therein by
couple of his sable colored 9 friends :" where he
could have walOwed in fifth congenial to his
taste. There has never been an occasion where
such deep feeling of indignation pervaded this
community as is now felt towards BurleIgh.
The father of Lieut.. Woodhouse is one of our
respected citizens, for years having held office
of trust-ald-rman, common councilman, &c.
the raj lroad-brldge over the Pennington river,
eight miles north OF this city, recently destroyed
by fire, has been rebuilt, although u Is $50 feet
In length, in just one week, so that cars now
pass it at any hour. This is Yankee dispatch.

SIR JOHN FRANELrN's ARCTIC EXPEDITION. -
The last whaler has arrived, and Sir ohm Frank
lln and his l25 followers are shut up In the Arc
tic regions tor third winter. To save them
from fourth; when, IN addition 10 scurvy, that
dreadful scourge to the seamen, they will have
to contend with starvation and all its horrors,
DR.. King has offered his services to Earl Grey to
Journey overland to the western land of North
Somerset Gin the neighborhood of which spot
lies all the difficulty which has bafed all our at
tempts in ships for three centuries and halt, In
search Of this gallant party. DR.. King proposes
TO take the same route he took In search OF Sir
John Ross In IS33-35 An attempt to reach the
western land of North Somerset in ships would
be attended with these difficulties I'll Barrow's
Strait was impossible in 1892; il may be mpass-
able in 1S4S. 2 The search in ships would be
using the same means which have brought the
lost expedition into their difficulty; the rele
party may, therefore, become party In distress
g. The land that is made will be OF doubtful
character; the searching party at the end OF the
summer, with the close Of which every soul of
the lost expedition will have persisted, may find
they have been tracing an island many miles
d lstant from the western land of North Somer-
set, or navigating deep bay, as Koizebue navi-
gated the Sound named after him, and as Frank
I'm navigated the sea called Melville Sound.
The plan which DR.. King has proposed is to reach
the Polar sea across the continent OF America,
and thus proceed on his search from land known
to be continent, where every footstep will be so
