OUR WASHINGTON CORRESPONDENTS.

WASHINGTON, N. c., Nov. 80, 1853
One Of the most, il not the very most, extraordi
nary and trasicai trials terminated in this place to.
day that ever occurred in this State trial for
murder. George Washington Caravan was ar
ragned at the bar of the Superior Court of Beaufort
county, on the 23d lust, for the MURDER by shoot
ing of Lassiter, in Hyde county in November, 1852.
He removed the trial, oath, from that county to
this, on the ground that justice could not be done
him there, the prejudice and excitement Of the
people we're 10 great. Caravan was Q Baptist
preacher, of the sect called here ironsides, hard
SHELLS, steel jackets, &c. Lassiter was q school
master. Jealousy was the groundwork, or rather
the plea, on the part Of Caravan, though he could
not substantiste it any way. The proof was circum
stantial; but such chain of circumstances as per-
hsps was never made appear before in any case
tried in this country Upwards 2, eighty % tSs
examination aud three days In argument before the
jury, who returned verdict of guilty this morning,
after being out all night, and second charge
during the night from the Judge. immediately the
verdict Of guilty pronounced, the prisoner at the
bar secretly drew pistol and shot at one OF the
counsel for the State, the ball passing through his
clothes to the skin, but old no serious damage He
instantly, or before his arm could be caught, drew
second pistol, put it to his head and blew his
own brains out, and expired in few moments,
presuming, no doubt, he had killed Mr.. Warren,
as it was . rifle barrel pistol, well loaded. Some
supposed his aim was at the State Attorney,
Nr. G. s. Stevenson, others that he aimed at Mr..
Warren-they were standing side by side. No doubt
you will soon have more full account of this ex.
iraordcaIy affair. IL has created great excitement
here and in the county where the murder was COM
nitted. Lassiter was wayaid en- the road, shot, and
then removed some quarter of mile or more, buried
in thicket where person ever thought OF going:
searchei for fer number Of days; found by the
appearance Of little newly DUG. up earth; recog-
nized; coroners jury called suspicion Immediately

Carter assistant counsel. The body of Caravan is
now laying in the Court House. The court adjourned
Immediately. So ends this tragical affair. The
pistols were new, and as yet no clue can be had to
the manner in which he got them. Some suppose,
whish is very likely the case, his wife procured
them.

FoRGETTIYG THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED
SIATEs-The correspondent of the Augusta Chron
'cie and Sentinel, writing from Millejgeve relates
the owing incident IN connection With the iuau.
guratoD Of Governor Johnson-"A rather siguif
cant incident is said t. have occurred the naugu-
ration o. the new Governor. After the delivery OF
bis address he proceeded to take toe oath prescribed
by the constitution OF Georgia. but he elected TO
take the cath TO support The constitution Of the
United States as prescribed by act Of Congress.
The omission said to have taken place at the
inauguration Of Gov. Gilmer. He, however, recti-
fed 1t by taking the prescribed oath TO support the
constitution Of the United States before a mag3.
trate, and after~ads communicating the fact TO the
General Assembly 1t Is very likely that it vas a
purely uDintentiona omission Of Governor Johnson
ON the present occasion and that the speedy manner
in which be climbs mp to the Georgia platform is
sufficiently convincing evidence that he will stand by
the constitution snd the Union.

Deiawate, Lehish and Wyoming
Valley Railroad.

To tie Editor Of tie ~ Y. Tribune.
Sir: In The Ne10 York Express a par
agraph appeared referring to a report of
J. W. Allen, Esq, Civil Engineer of the
Morris and Essex Railroad, upon the
practicability of connecting the Sunbury
and Erie Railroad with the Morris and
Essex by means of the "Delaware, LehigA
and Wyoming Valley Railroad, thereby
opening the Wyoming coal fields to this
City. If Mr.. Allen means the latter be
grartty r0ad acith stationary Engine, the
connection would be practicable; if, how
ever, he refers to loc0m0ttvc coal carry
ing road, he speaks with an imperfect
knowledge of the facts, or has been de-
ceived by the misrepresentation of inter
terested parties. l agree with Mr.. A.,
that 1t is highly important to this City
to have the connection made with the Sun
bury and Erie Road and New Jersey
Roads. This connection we shall have,
when the road now building through Cobb's
Gap, via, Scranton Pa, known as the
Delaware, Lackawana and Wester Rail
road shall be finished, and also the Blooms
burg and Lackawana Road shall be built,
connecting the Jersey and Erie Roads by
the nearest practicable routes through the
UaLley. A New YORKER.

New Mode Of EiectiOueqrjpr

We clip the following piece Of iutelli-
gence from the Fredericksburg, Va. Nercs:
Il Ae1o Ee0ture.-We are informed on
reliable authority that on yeSteday, at
the White Oak Church, in Stafford Coun-
ty, after the religious services were over
Gov. Smith, the Democratic candidate
for Congress, being called on, addressed
the congregation which was there assem-
bled. As this is a new feature in politi-
cal electioneering and something never
before heard of in Virginia, We publish it
for the benefit of their candidates at large.
We had made up our minds not to be
startled at anything in this Democratic
age of progress, but must confess our un-
feigned astonishment at this new use to
which the Church of God and the Sab.
bath day are appropriated in christian
community.

Mexican News.

Dates from Mexico to the 4th have
reached US by New Orleans. Santa An
ma has been inaugratcd as President, and
governs that ill-fated and, it is to be fear
ed, doomed country. lie has bridled the
Press, established a censorship, and de-
manded securities. We see from this
that if there is to be a government of des-
potism, it is not to be one of anarchy; and
that hence Mexico is more formidable un-
der one Tyrant than she was under some
FIVE hundred Tyrants.
The movement in California upon So
nora, when heard of in Mexico, will no
doubt excite good deal Of feeling against
the United States.
Gen. Almonte, who is coming to the
United States as Santa Annals Minister
is well known here. He speaks English
well, and is man of talents and address
Santa Anna, in confirming Sloo's con-
tract. shows good faith to the United States
so far.
