THE RECENT AFFRAY AT CINcINNATI.--The Gin.
cinnati Gazette gives the following account OF the
affray in which Mr.. Buell., Of Washington city was
stabbed:
On Wednesday evening Mr.. B. F. White, see
ing the large crowd around the Burnett House,
concluded to make speech upon pile of rubbish
in vacant lot near the Belvidere House. When
| he had been silenced by tho crowd, or had COM
pleted his speech, Mr.. George P. Buell., Of WASH
ington city, got upon the stand and made an at
| tack upon KNOWN othingsm. l
He was quite violent in his remarks, and met
with considerable interruption from the crowd.
At last, exasperated by this treatment he descend
| ed from the stand, and general muse ensued, in
| the course Of which Mr.. Buell. received wound in
| the back from large bowie-knife. The blade en-.
| tered just below the shoulder-blade, and reached
| to the lungs. It was nearly two inches wide.
Mr.. B. was conveyed to the Burnett House,
| where surgical attendance was procured. An at
| tempt was made to secure the assailant but with
what. success is doubtful Two men were arrested
| and taken to the Hammond street Station House.
| Their names are Garry and Cassidy.
Mr. Buells wound was examined by the sur
geons. 1t was found that the point of the blade
had penetrated the lungs, and that he was bleed
ing internally. A gentleman, who saw him last
evening, informs us that he said he had but little
pain, and was quite comfortable The surgeons
thought his recovery doubtful, The chances arr
decidedly against him. Mr.. Buell. is about 81
years old, native of Indiana.

The Souri, AND THE ASSAULT ON Mr.. SUMNER
The Mobile Advertiser, Fillmore paper, also con-
dennis the assault committed on Mr.. Sumner in
the Senate Chamber. II says:
"But every sound-thiuking, unprecedented man
in the country, knows and feels that the personals.
ties in Summers speech were abominable, despite
all the withdrawing resolutions Massachusetts,
may pass, and that, considering the time, place,
and manner of Mr. Brookss assault, it was rash,
unwise, and utterly indefensible, no matter how
many 'gold-headed canes Columbia, Charleston,
or any other town may send him." Ia

THE DHFERENcE.-Marshal Hoover offers q re-
ward Of $500 for the apprehension of Essex, who
accidentally killed Quigley the other day. This
is right The same Marshal Hoover gave sump-
tuous entertainment to Herbert who killed Keat-
ing, and invited the friends of Herbert to make
merry at the same before the court had decided to
admit him to bail. Was this right alsop We can
not admit that it was, unless we admit that the
intentional killing of an Irishman by Democratic
member of Congress Is more venial offence than
the accidental killing of an Irishman by an Ameri-
can mechanic.

J. Clancy Jones's Record OF cold Buck"
Hon. j. CLANCY Jones, who signed petition al
lowing free negroes the right of suffrage in the
State of Pennsylvania, in his attempts to defend
Old Buck from the home thrusts" Of Hon.
Henry M. Fuller, cites the following evidence Of
" Old Bucks" Southern availability:
"They are answered by the fact that, while a
member of Mr.. Folks Cabinet against the oppos-
ton Of fanaticsm, he proposed to extend the Mis-
souri, line to the Pacific, amid the delight and graf
itude Of national men of all parts of the Union"
These national men Of all parts Of the Union'
include Mr.. Jones, and other Republicans, who
seek to elevate the African to political equality
with the American. If Mr. Buchanan delighted
the national men by proposing the extension of
the Missouri restriction what Gloss of men does he
now delight by adhering to its repealp Can II be
that the national men of President Folks admins
tration, who were stern advocates of the Missouri
| restriction, are the national men of the present
day, who denounce the measure which gave them
such delight, as odious and unconstitutional p

lighted at the proposition ia extend the Missouri

How Mr.. Buchanan was Nominated

How Mr.. Buchanan was Nominated.
The editor of the faithless phantom" thus dis
closed in advance the process by which Mr.. Buch-
anan would be nominated
1T is undeniably true that much Of the outside
pressure for his nomination is the result Of dis
position to bring in the votes of men of Freesoil
tendencies - anti-N ebraska-bill men--those who,
while protesting acquiescence in the questioned
feature of the Kansas Nebraska act are eternally
disputing the propriety of its original enactment.
have no fancy for such Democrats, and would
prefer fighting the contest without them. Hence
my earnest opposition to Mr.. Buchanan's nomina.
ton. | deprecate the day when their counsels
will have weight in those Of the great Democratic
party, and do not comprehend as yet, how, after
counting their votes in making nomination, we
can with any degree OF selfrespect fail to accord
to them frankly the weight in determining our flu
ture course as party, legitimatey due to their
numbers as an integral portion of the Democratic
organization"
The "phantom" was right. The anxiety to Sc
cure the Republican vote was doubtless the
main cause of Mr. Buchanan's nomination
