The brutal and unnatural murder OF the little son Of Mr..
Rumpf, on Friday last, In Baltimore, continues to cause
great excitement in that city, The two boys are sill under
arrest on suspicion of being connected with the MURDER but
the general opinion u.s. that they know nothing about It

than could be found in the breasts Of boys OF their age
correspondent Of the New York Herald states that on
Saturday evening named Schneider who had recently
worked for Mr.. Rumpf and with whom ne had law suit
about HE wages arrested ltappears that on losing his
suit before the magistrate, few days previous he had
sworn to have revenge Mr.. Rump and that ne was ire

found the afternoon of the murder, and had on ha
day repeated his threats of revenge When arrested lie ana
not ask what for and his shirt was spnKled win
blood; though being butcher that might have been theI
whether guilty not
The little murdered boy was but five years Of age oeaul
full and interesting the very idol Of its father hea
being his only surviving child His attachment to the BOY
was great general notice. and hence the sus

which would be dreadful for the father TO encounter
Another named Albert Shpley, has been arrested on

Although both houses Of Congress were pretty
busy yesterday, there very little real business
transacted by either and that the session is so
ne ar the close we do look for any but the Appro'
prialion bills being passed 1t may happen, as has
been the case On previous occasions, that during
the last twenty four hours OF the session. great
amouat of business will be hurried through. A
bill was introduced into the Senate recently giving
patentees in the United States remedy against
the introduction Of articles manufactured under
their Inventions, and imported into the United
States. According 10 all accounts, American pa
,entees have been injured very much III this way.
No sooner would one OF our citizens take out a
rafext for useful Invention, than some pirates
would adopt his invention, cross the border into
Canada end manufacture TO any extent, and send
sach manufactures into the United States, and
sndersell the rientful owner of the patent in his
own market. Il was 10 stop this piracy tina This
bill was passed. and noone, certainly ,can ind fault
with il. We hope the House will be able to cor
cur In lis adoption before the adjournment.
The Senate did another good work yesterday in
passing the navy pension bill The bill provides

DErLoRARLE CoSDIrloS n NEw MExrco.-The
citizens Of New Mexico az peti,ioning Congress
for protection against the numerous tribes OF wild
Indians surrounding the Territory. From all &C.
counts, the condition Of tt.t section Of our country
s truly deplorsble. From the rapid destruction Of
game in the prairies the necessities Of the wander
ing Indians have driven iem to levy their subsis-
tence upon migrants and passing caravans, and the
most onyenient white settlements; and 1t so hap
pens, from the location nd charactero the country.
that the white settlements Of the valley Of the Rio
Grsnde are completely eEvironed by these half
starved savsges. From the desolate plains 10 the
east and the north. the Cananehes descend upon
the fiocks Of the poor puebos, and carry them of
by thousands. From their almost inaccessible
mountain fas nesses On the west, the Navsioes
make their unfailing irruTtions, to exact con-
tribuiions of horses, mules, cattle, sheep, AMI
goods; and often, OF all the women and children
that fall in their way From the wild hills to the
southward, on the Rio Grande, tAe warlike Apa-
ches send out their forsging parties upon the help
less villages Of New Mexico; a cloud Of dust i
setn in the distance, a horde Of well mounted but
half naked savsges are in the settlement, and an
hour afterwards II is swept Of everything. These
savsqes, it appears, do not unfortunately butcher
the white setters nor even the pueblo Indians, ex.
cett where they resist II the shepherds were de-
suoyed, their locks would soon be exiermina'ed
But the rspacity Of the outside barbarans, from
the diminutlon Of the bufaloes, is every year be
coming more insupporable to the New Mexicans
and the latter declare that the Indians by WHOM
they are iIfes,ed mus, either be removed o.

important application. II involves, most distinctly,
the good faith Of the North IN fulfilling their
solemn obligations 10 the Soath, as signed and seal

Fugitive act. Tue consequences simply involve
the existence or destruction of the Union.
