Herald says: "Father Richie has sold out the
Washington Union for $4,000, to Andrew Jack
son Donelson, of Tennessee, late Minister to Ger.
many, the adopted son of Old Hickory, and an able
politician"
This statement has been caught, in going its

will pay the New York Herald premium Of more
than $4,000, if it will insure us $4,000 as the
price we have received for our ablishment"

LATER FROM JAMAIoA.-By the steamship
Philadelphia, we have the Kingston Morning
Journal OF the 18th
We learn from the Morning Journal that the
committee of the Assembly appointed to inquire
into and report upon the ways and means OF the
island for the current financial year has presented
report to the House. 1t appears from this that
the entire expenditure of the colony amounts to the
very large sum of 9269 900, in which amount
tlO,65O is included sinking fund for the qui-
datlon of debt of 6700,000. OF the first men
toned sum, f13S 800 may be considered as fixed
and permanent, and further sum of f67, 0i5 may
also be regarded in nearly the same light. These
items OF expenditure which no economy, how
ever severe, can reduce, and which cannot be got
rid of. They amounted together to f2O5, 1000, and
exceed the total revenue of the island which is
estimated at 9fls9,0 900. The deficiency apparent
upon the face of the document is 979O00, and this
| sum the House of Assembly will be called upon to
provide an end is to be put to the present system
Of annually running deeper into debt,
proposition is before the Assembly of
Jamaica to make provision for the education of the
| people. Such proposition, when first brought
| forward, raised complete tempest of opposition,
which led to its abandonment.

ACCIDENT TO THE STEAMER G. w. KENDALL.
We learn from the officers Of the steamers Mem
phis and St. Cloud, that the steamer G. w Ken
dali, bonud for ST. Louis, broke one of her engines
while rounding out from wood yard, Thursday
afternoon, and burst the cylinder head and broke
the mud valve pipe, which caused the steam to
escape, creating great CONSERVATION on the boat.
Fortunately no one was killed but the carpenter of
the boat, who was sitting near the cylinder head.
Some fifteen horses ranged on the guard and in the
immediate vicinity of the steam pipe, were scalded
terribly and many Of them broke their halters,
jumped overheard and were lost. louisville
Courier, 18th.
The accident happened above Brandenburg.
Some passengers thought that they saw several
persons IN the river after the accident. The num-
Der OF passengers on the Kendall was about 400.

The FUsITIvE SLAVE CAsE-1He Slave,
Delivered Up,-Ellen and Henry, alias Hannah
Daliam, and Dick, the fugitive slaves of Mr.. Per
due, OF Baltimore county, who have been under
examination in Philadelphia, before Judge Kane
for several days, have been delivered into the Gus
tody OF the claimant The Ledger says:
The Court was addressed by J. d. Bennett,
Esq, Tor the claimants, and James X. Ludlow and
D. I. Brown for the respondents. Robert M. Lee,
Esq, was about to finish the argument for the
claimants when the Judge interrupted him and
relieved him from the necessity of arguing the
question He then reviewed the testimony at
length, and there being conflicting evidence, deci-
ded that the preponderence in clearness and con.
sistency was on the part OF the claimants. The
witnesses for respondents disagreed in relation to
important dates The certificate was therefore
granted, and we presume ere this the slaves are on
their way to Maryland.
The case was not concluded until near tw I've
o'clock, P. M. Before that the colored people who
had remained in the neghborhood of the State
House, had dispersed.
The fugitives were landed in Baltimore from the
Philadelphia cars on the 18TH
