DisgrucetW Ro,o at OSHKOSH, Wisconaia,-We
learn from the Democrat and Telegraph that the
village Of Oshkosh was the scene of a most dis
graceful riot and outrage the evening Of the 23d
ut. ball was given by Mr.. BoIe, the keeper of
German boarding house, to which several Anne.
ricans were invited. At about 10 O'Clock, several
Americans, not invited, entered the ball, and com
manced abusing the Dutch" as they opprobri.
Ously styled the Germans, Others, from the out
side, threw eggs through the windows The Ger
mans ordered the intruders to leave, and as they
refused going general melee ensued. The row.
dies were the strongest party and drove the family
and guests from the house, after which they broke
nearly every thing in the house. Knives were
freely used, and some Of the combatants severely
cut Mrs. Bode was knocked down with chair,
and severely injured. Several arrests were made
the next day, and fines for disturbing the peace
imposed. A civil suit has been brought for da-
images sustained.

The Pdcifc.-The new and splendid ohiteu
States mail steamship Pacific, Captain, Nathaniel
Jarvis, arrived here about ten O'CLOCK yesterday
morning from New York Uia Havana. She is de.
eidedIy one of the most splendid specimens OF naval
architecture we have ever seen, her performances
afFordipg good grounds for the assertion. She is
without doubt the fastest steamship afoat, and the
fact was the more surprising to us, when We found
that she is propelled by one vertical beam engine
of only 300 horse power. The greatest perfection
both in the model of the vessel and in the con-
structon of the engine, must have been attained
to procure SO great spsed with so little power vi
course the power of the Pacifc's engine Is much
more direct, than that of either the Georgia's or
Ohios, but there is still vast difference, in power
and proportonafe speed The Pacifc's engine is
capable of making twenty-five revolutions per
minute but she was not put to her speed during
the massage from New York. She made the run
from Havana to the Balize in fifty-three hours,
against heavy norther, nearly all the way. Her
machinery was constructed at the Archimedes
Foundry " of Mr. H. r. Durham, New York, and
il is certainly beautiful specimen of its kind. She
has fifty-six inch cylinder with ten feet stroke
twenty eight feet diameter of wheel Her dimen.
aons are 235 feet length, 30 feet six inches beam
and Is feet depth of hold; rating 1900 tons Custom
house measurement. She has two boilers, 81 feet
long and nine feet wide.
The internal arrangements are on the mos
modern and improved plan, combining comfor
with elegance, and with gentlemanly commander
and officers, must prove popular wherever she
goes. We believe she is to be sent to the Pacific
in two or three months.
We subjoin list of her officers:
Nathaniel Jarvis commander; o. " Hollenbeck purssr
Dr. William Valentine, surgeon; P. Jarvis first officer w
R. Knead. second officer g. C. Turzo, third officer Jane

HoxRnLx OccuRREScE.-We learn from
. friend, Just from Jackson, that some few days
AGO, sportion of the citizens Of that place were
horfi6ed u the sight Of the mangled corpse Of
an infant, which was found in the possession
Of several dogs, in a tenanted lot. From all
that - can learn it seems, that some dark and
dsvilish deed has been done; suspicion has
baed fixed upon . widow lady, and circumstan-
ces are clearly against her; it is supposed that
il was her own child and that she killed it to
hide her shame, but in burying it her dogs fol-
lowed, dug it up, and brought it back to
the house, where it was found in q mangled
condition. Truly this must have been q horri-
flying spectacle for q mother to look upons-t b
mangled corpse Of her child in the possession Of
dogs! serving asa bone Of contention!
We forbear to say more, and wait foe further
particulars.-Bayou Sara Ledger.
