The NEsB1TT RoBBERY.-Mr. Couzins
and his party returned yesterday to the
citv, having in custody the two men ar,
rested on the Wabash. Theywere lodged
in iail, and will undergo an examination
hereafter.
Yesterday, Mr.. Nesbitt received tele-
graphic dispatch from his correspondent
in Cincinnati, which puts an entirely dit
ferent face upon the development there;
at least, as to the amount recovered
The fellow, Connolly, supposed to be a
partner in the robbery. has been arrested,
and on his person about $1,000 were
found. In the trunk, obtained from New
mort, there were only about 81, 400, instead
Of II, 900, as stated nthe newspapers; SO
that by this haul. only about So, 400 were
obtained. The whole amount recovered
ND to the present time is little less than
$4,000. In the trunk, we learn, the
sleeve of young Nesbitt's coat was found,
and some papers. bags, &C., which would
enable him to identify the money. or. at
least, connect Connolly with the robbery.
Connolly was in custody.-St Loatss Re

THE LATEST IMPosITIoN.--Most of the
New York papers have of late contained
notices of the strange animal said to have
been captured in the mountains of Cali
fornia by Col. Fremont, and for which
naturalists have been unable to find
name. This nondescript, which is said
to be made up of parts resembling the
horse, camel, buffalo, elephant and deer
has been on exhibition in New York for
several weeks past, and has been seen by
thousands, the editor of the Courier says
he will not pretend to guess how many
thousands of persons at quarter OF a
dollar a head. 1t now appears that the
California Nondescript" is nothing more
or less than very common horse, with
some disease Of the skin which changes
his coat. To make it more attractive
the hair of the name and tail have been
pulled out, which gives it the neck o.
the deer and the tail of the elephant.
Washington telegraph., 1849-05-09

An ERROR CoRRECTED.--Mr. luck,
free soil Democrat, member OF Congress
has been claimed as a convert to the
Whig party. and great many smart par
agraphs have been perpetrated upon such
an unnatural affiliation. But IT seems
there has been no such concession-Mr,
Tuck is. as he always. has been, Demo
crat-notwiihstanding he is also an avow'
ed Aboitionist. The Democracy of his
own State claim him as one of their shin
ing lights. Let them have him.
Hon. AMOS TUcK.-We notice that the
New York Evening Post, and many other
of our free soil exchanges, misled by the
Taylor papers out OF the State, put down
this gentlema as free soil Wing This
is simply and wholly an error. Mr.. Tuck
is not and never was whig. He never
acted with any party but the Democratic
party, until he joined, or rather led, the
independent Democratic movement in
favor of John p. Hale. Since that hour
more than four years ago, he has been
heart and soul with the free Democracy.

NEGRO MURDER.-A shocking affair,
in which negroes only were concerned,
occurred in this neishborhood Oh the
night of Monday last.
Early on the morning of Tuesday,
eight negroes came into Vidalia and ha-
wing found the Jailor, told him that they,
all of them,-belonged to Windsor
Forest plantation but had been runaways
from it, for some months, owing to the
cruelty of the negro overseer on the PLAN
tation; that being unable longer to live in
the woods, they had agreed TO return
home on Monday night last, bnt, before
doing so, determined to propose to the
negro overseer 70 submit TO light pun
ishment for their offence. and if he did
not agree to their proposal, to kill him.
that with this determination they went
into the Quarters, made the proposal for
a moderate punishment to the negro
overscer, and, it having been rejected and
severe punishment threatened, they killed
him with sticks. They told the Jailor
that all their number were implicated in
the murder and had now come forward
10 give themselves into the hands Of Jus.
tice The time Of this surrender was at
or near day-break
All of these negroes were s;raightway
committed to jail while the coroner and
summoned jury proceeded to the scene
of the described murder and held the pro.
per inquest. They found the negro over.
seer dead without the skin of any part OF
his body being scratched even. He had
been beaten to death.
The negroes will undergo preliminary
trial in the Court House, here, on Tues.
day next, before Thomas Edwards, Esq,
and ten property-holders who are citizens
of the parish. We learn that the negro
overseer who was killed was one of the
most valuable and faithful of his race

HoRR,sLE.-A most blood curdlinr

HoRRrBLE.-A most blood curdlinr
account is given in the Houston (Miss5
Republican, of a recent date, of a bloody
scene which had taken place in the vii.
lage of Pikeviue. 1t appears that Mr.
Heggerson attempted to correct negro
man in his employ, who resisted, drew
knife. and stabbed him in several places,
when a Mr.. J. G. Hobbs ran to his as.
sistance. MIR. H. stopped to pick up a
stick to strike the negro, and while in
that position the negro rushed upon him,
and with a dirk inflicted a wound in his
left breast, which caused his immediate
death. The negro then fed to the woods
but was pursued with dogs, and soon
overtaken. He had stopped in swamp
to fight the dogs, when the party who
were pursuing him came upon and CON-
manded him to give up, which he refused
to do; he then made several efforts to
stab them. Mr.. Robertson, one of the
party, gave him several blows on the
head with rifle gun; but this, instead
of snbduing, only increased his desperate
revenge. MIR. r. then discharged his
gun at the negro, and, missing him. the
ball struck a MIR. Boon in the face, and
felled him to the ground; the negro, see-
ing Mr.. Boon prostrated, attempted to
rush up and stab him, but was prevented
by the timely interference of some one Of
the party. He was then shot three times
with revolving pistol and once with a
rifle, and, after having his throat cut, he
still kept the knife firmly grasped in his
hand, and tried to cnt their legs when
they approached to put an end to his life.
Mr.. Boon is said to be seriously wounded.
MIR. Heggerson' wounds are slight.

We learn from the Camden Herald,
that difficulty occurred at Wilmington,

in the adjustment Of an unsettled account
between them, and that MIR. Parker ha
vino threatened violence, Sullivan drew
a pistol and shot him dead
