CURIOUS CASE OF HANGISG.-We find in the De-
trot Advertiser the following account of q horrible
accident that occurred at Lockpor St. Joseph county,
Mict on the 3lst nit:
Miss Alice Wilkinson was in the ragroom of the
papermill alone, when by some unaccountable acci-
dent her shawl and woolen scarf, which she wore
around her neck, were caught and wound around a
perpendicular shaft which was performing some sixty
to seventy revolutions per minute. She was raised
from the loor and when discovered was suspended
by the neck to the shaft As soon as possible the
motion of the shaft was stopped, and her body cut
down. but life was extinct.

MATCH BETWEEN AN ENGLISH MARE AND AN
ARABIAN Horse. = An interesting race was run
recently at Cairo, Egypt, between an English mare
and an Arab horse belonging to Haeen Pacha when
the former beat the latter The length of the race
was eight miles, the time occupied by the mare
eighteen and half minutes, over a rough, gravelly,
and sandy road The same race has been offered for
the last two years against all England for ten thousand
sovereigns with the same horse, and not accepted.
The Egyptian princes are now convinced that their
Arabs can be beaten by English horses. The late
Viceroy Abbas Pacha had offered to stake any amount
up to 150000f Oh his own horses against any others
that might be brought to run.

The Shreveport Gazette, Of the 23dut. states that
the river was then in good boating order and rising
slowly. Large boats came up easily with heavy
freights and descended with full loads of cotton.
The Gazette calls attention to an important fact in
regard to Bayou Tone 1t has increased recently to
such an alarming extent that more than half the
waters OF Red river directed through that channel
into Bayou Pierre and Spanish Lake, and it is thought
that If something be not soon done to remedy the
evil will BECOME serious interruption of the nav
CATION Of the river ,.-r
We learn from the Louisiana Democrat, that on the
2lst ult, the body Of q man was found living in
small creek about twelve miles from Alexandria !: it
was much mutilated, the clothes and flesh having
been stripped and torn nearly off by wolves or wild
hogs. A pocket-book. was found with the body, in
which were sundry memorandums and receipts for
hotelblls Itappeared from these that deceased was
Major Lewis Morris, late US. Consul at Campeachy,
in Mexico, appointed by President Polk lin February
1849, and that he once had a brother, now dead,
living at Castor Ranch,. near Victoria, Texas. He
was an elderly man, his hair being quite gray.
The ThibodauX Minerva of Saturday has the fol
lowing paragraphs: ..

NOT A STREET F1GHr.-Recently, a well-known
citizen of Columbus, Ohio, had an alteration with
negro who was working for him. After some high
words the Co not wishing to strike the fellow, and
unable longer to bear his insulting language turned
and walked away. The servant seeing this exclaimed,
You can't frighten dis chile dat way, massa;
knows you're going arter de gun, and am comm
back to shoot-but dis nigga is ready, sab -he hab
libbed in de sunny souf too, sar II is unnecessary
to add that the Col. did not return.

An EDITOR MURDERED IN M1ss1ss1pP1.-On Tues
day the 10th ult Chas s. Lounsbury, editor and pro-
prietor of the Koscusko Chronicle, was shot and kill
ed in that place. The following are the cireumstan
ces fthe murder:
Lounsbury was shot while ascending the steps to
the tavern to get his supper, and without any prev
GUS warning whatever, by one Richard W. Payne
seventythree small shot taking effect in his right side
ranging from the hip to the shoulder He lived only
about thirty minutes. This was as coldblooded pre-
meditated a murder as ! ever knew. Payne is still at
large He is about feet Or inches high, % years
of age, square built, weighs 100 to 1856 pounds, his
hair is of dark yellow color, his eyes Of greyish
blue his front teeth rather wide and slightly separa
ted, his hands and feet SMALL his complexion sallow
white He is quick-spoken in conversation, but not
loud; laughs very loud is very gentee in his dress
and manners; stands very erect has very short,
quick step and swinging gate has noted scar just
below his left temple, about an inch and a-quarter
long, ranging from his left eyebrow to his ear.
A difficulty occurred between deceased and his mur-
derer about IS months ago, which it is supposed was
the cause of this affair.

LAUNCH OF THE NIAGARA.-The great steam vessel
Of war Niagara launched successfully on the 23d
at the New York Navy Yard From an account in
the Times we extract the following:
Men in the hull eagerly eyed the seams and looked
close for water but she had not leaked drop, and
there was not the slightest indication of strain or
wrench Bets had been made that her lines would be
altered from ten to eighteenor twenty inches, and
those who wished best for her estimated that she
would alter from five to eight inches But when she
was fairly af1oat and her lines taken it was found
that the alteration was but fifteen eighteenths Of
inch.
She is 345 feet long, and is tons burden
She is to be shiprigged and her mainmast from the
keel to fagpoe will be 200 feet high She is to have
three engines, and is calculated to go II knots an
hour with a good breeze, or Is knots under steam
Her cost is about $lOO0O00. She is larger than the
Persia-larger than any steamer afloatSthough Mr..
Steers has on the ways the Adriatic for the Collins
line, which is several hundred tons larger; and in
England they are building one so large that it is
thought they'll have to bring her to this country to
get water to float her.

THE INDIAN WAR IN WASHINGTON TERRITORY
Through private source the Mobile Tribune has OBJ
tanned important information from Washington Terri
tory not furnished by the latest California and Oregon
papers. We copy the following: a
Acting Governor Mason of Washington Territory
together with Capt Steritt of the U s. sloop ofWar
Decatur arrived at San Francisco on the morning of
the 9TH of February, in the steamer Republic from
Puget Sound As the Golden Age for Panama left at
L. Dl. OF the same day, the information received
was not published in the San Francisco Journals
Gov Mason states that the Republic left Olympia on
