Democratic Meeting in Charlton.

The democracy of Charlton county held a
meeting on Monday last, and appointed del
egates to Congressional and Senatorial
Convention at Bloomington, and nominated
q candidate for the Legislature.
The delegates were instructed to vote foI
Gen. Clark for Congress and Judge Apple
gate for Senator, from the District compos.
ed Of Charlton, Linn ard Macon. Capt w
E. Herryford was nominated for the Lesis'
laturc.
The meeting was a very rich affair, ia
king it altogether, and we will embrace an
other opportunity, when we have nor'
space, to speak Of it. 1t was 10 Union, bu
a regular Anti meeting. Capt. Herryford i
pledged to vote for wing for U. S. Sena
for, in preference to Benton, which pledg
was received with applause. He accepte'
the nomination promising to be working
me nber, and do something 70. the county
particularly in the way Of lessening tn
bridge tax. A good way TO do this, is T.
give Howard that portion of Charlton coun
ty East of the East Fork, and make IL
a partner in part Of the bridges. Capt. Fl
was a warm advocate of this measure, ant
is still we hope, now that he is in apositiol
TO do something in its favor.

WAsnrroros. March Q.

Mr.. Deans resolution inquiring as to the
propriety of suspending the neutrality laws
with reference to Spain, in consequence of
the seizure Of the Black Warrior, was not
introduced without authority.
The Government is getting tired Of sub
hitting 10 the continued outrages Of Cuba
and being subjected 10 protracied negotia-
tons at Madrid. If the principle of the res
olution were once adopted, as some inteli-
gent gentlemen here believe il soon will be
Cuba will be revolutionized in month";
The State Department has official dispatches
relative to the case Of the Black Warrior,
but they do not vary from the newspaper
accounts.
The following is Mr.. Deans resolution
referred to above.
Resolved, That it be referred to the Com
mittee on Foreign Affairs to inquire into the
cases Of recent outrages by the Spanish au-
thorties at Havana, on the property and
persons of American citizens, and report
what legislation of Congress, or what action
by the Government is necessary to procure
indemnity therefor, and security against their
future repetition, and particularly whether
our neutral law, as regards Spain, ought to
be repealed or suspended.
We believe we have already stated that
the Black Warrior, was seized by the au-
thorities at HAVANA, on account Of some er.
ror in her manifest. She took freight neith-
err to or from Havana, and although the
law allows twelve hours to make any neces-
sary correction in the manifest, and although
her officers offered to insert the amount Of
cotton which she carried in that document
yet it was Of no avail. The Black Warrior
was on her thirty-sixth voyage to Havana
and had always entered her cargo as ballast
agreeable to the custom prevailing among
vessels which neither take in or discharge
frS .ht at that port.

Death of Mr.. J, w. Brown.

Mr.. J. w. Brown died on Sunday morn
ing at o'clock, from the wound he received
from L. J. Hays, noticed in our last.
The injury which Hays inflicted on
Brown, was located on the forehead to the
left Of the central line, beginning near the
commencement Of the hair, and terminating
one inch above the brow. Owing TO the
looseness of the integuments which covered
the forehead the external wound did not
give very correct idea Of the extent Of
the cut through the skull which was fully
two inches in length, while the flesh wound
was mol SO much. The blade Of the instru.
ment, common ditcher's spade, was thin,
and this rendered the detection of the iniu-
ry sustained by the brain from the driving
in Of the inner table OF the skull, a matter
Of impossibiity. 1t was feared by his SUR
geons that the brain had sustained injury,
but ns no symptom followed which justified
the removal'of the fractured portions of the
skull by the saw, which of itself is consid.
cred somewhat hazardous, Mr.. Brown was
dressed and closely watched. Not until
Friday morning did any of those symptoms
make their appearance. Upon a consulta-
ton OF the entire medical faculty of our
town, and operation was deemed advisable.
After the operation, Brown, though una
bic to speak, signifed that he felt relieved,
his consciousness remaining almost to the
last. This, connected with the improve
ment in his appearance, led to the hope
that he might possibly recover; but this was
of short duration, for in the course of IL
hourse paralysis Of the right side came on,
followed by commissions. These continued
at intervals until death closed the scene.
The operation performed upon Mr.. B.
consisted in removing a'circular piece of the
skull from the immediate locality Of the
fracture. After this was effected careful
examination of the parts beneath was made,
and at least twenty fragments Of the inner
plate Of the skull removed from the men,
branes which cover the brain, and from the
brain itself-the fragments varying in size
One piece nearly as large as quarter of {
dollar, was driven edgewise through what
the doctors call the "Dura Mater" dowr
into tie brain. Various other pieces wer,
also removed, and the brain was much Ia
cerated and broken by them--so much SO
indeed, that we witnessed the surgeon
wiping away considerable portions of it a
it oozed through the wounds made in tn
membranes which naturally enclose it.
The operation was performed by DR..
P. Vaughan, and was witnessed by the 9th
er physicians Of the place.

excitement in Congress and angry feeling
between the east and west. The western

Missouri WING DELEGArEs.-It is a
little remarkable that while the Wing Dele
CATION in Congress from nearly the entire
South are heartily supporting Douglas Bill,
it should be thought especially necessary by
the Wing press Of our State TO give publici-
ty to the fact, that the Wing Delegation from
Missouri will support the bill. How did il
happen that doubt SO generally existed as
to their course Dollar Journal.
The "Dollar Journal" Examiner" and
other papers of the same stripe, were week
ly lying on and slandering the Missouri
Delegation: it was to oounteract these lies
and ISLANDERS that public annunciation OIL

In 1852, he gave his first democratic vote

and would not vote for Gardenhire, or the
Richardson's, because they admitted the

WAsuIEoroN, March Is.

WASuINGToN, March 10.
A message was received from the Presi-
dent in relation to the Black Warrior affair,
in reply to The resolutions Of the House.
He says that there have been many in
stances Of aggression and insults to the Am
erican flag by the Cuban authorities, and all
attempts to obtain redress have been fruit
less. He says the seizure of the Black
Warrior is clear case Of wrong, and it is
but reasonable TO expect indemnity therefor
as soon as this unjustifiable conduct shall be
made known.
The Government of the offending party is
at cur door with large power for nggressio ion,
but none, it is alleged for PREPARATION. The
source of redress is in another hemisphere,
and answers have been mere excuses for
the misconduct of officers. Measures have
already been taken to present to the Spanish
Government the wanton injustice of the
Cuban authorities on the subject of the
Black Warrior, and to demand immediate
indemnity. In case the measures taken
for amicable adjustment with Spain should
unfortunately fail, he shall not hesitate tc
Use the authority md means which Con.
gress may grant, to ensure the observance o.
our just rights, to obtain redress for injuries
received, and to vindicate the honor of oul
flag. In anticipation Of that contingency
says the President, l suggest to Congress the
propriety of taking such provisional meas.
ures as the emergency may seem to de
mand.
