The veteran Com. David Conner, Of the u. s.
Navy, died in Philadelphia on Thursday, after
a brief illness, at an advanced age. The de.
ceased was formerly resident Of Cecil county.
Md, and had seen some AZ years service in the
navy, which he entered in 1909. He was on
board the Hornet during her engagement with
the Penguin in the year 1914, where he was
wounded, and from whence he carried nearly
to his grave a ball in bis body. During the
war with Mexico he had the command Of the
Home squadron, and in that capacity rendered
efhcient service to the cause OF bis country. He
was distinguished for bravery, high toned honor,
ana indomitable energy It's said the decision
Of the Naval Retiring Board, in his case, deeply
affected him, and that he felt il most keenly. Il
was only few days ago that Senator Bgler
presented to Congress, on his behalf, an indig.
nant remonstrance against the decision Of the
board.

Nebraska-Kansas act of the equal rights of the


Nebraska Arkansas act Of the equal rights of the
States
In New York, had the tactics of the Presi-
dent succeeded, there would have been victory
for the man, but none for the principles of the
Democratic party. Principles and not men,
has been the honest and homely doctrine which,
consistently followed, has impressed deep in
the hearts of our countrymen respect and
love, founded on respect, for the Democratic
party.
Though the triumph in Illinois of the prn-
cple of the equal rights of the States is in our
view the chief subject of congratuation, yet
we think the Democracy may consistently re-
joice at the personal success of the originator
and champion Of the Nebraska Kansas act, in
which is involved the great principle of the
equality of the rights of the States. Sincerely
do we rejoice as well at the success Of the
man as at that of the principle.
Contemporaneously or nearly so with the
announcement in the Times of the victory at
Chicago, the majority report Of the Committee
on Territories, concerning affairs in the Terri
tory of Kansas, was being made by its chair.
man, Judge Douglas, in the Senate.
This clea. and powerful report we have had
the satisfaction of transmitting to our subscri-
bers in pamphlet form.
The report of the Committee on Territories,
and the speech of the chairman of the COM
mittee, in support of the report make together
a very thorough exposition of the affairs of
Kansas, as well establishing the facts as set
ting the constitutional questions involved.
In advance of the publication of the entire
speech Of Judge Douglas, we had intended to
give to our readers, in to days issue, sketch
of it, however imperfect, but this, for want Of
room, we are under the necessity of deferring
to future occasion.
Washington sentinel., 1856-03-25

Late accounts from Florida bring intelli-
gence Of more recent barbarities committed by
the Seminole Indians upon settlers.
1t appears that the savages made descent
upon the Alfalfa settlement, some thirty miles
east Of Tampa, about fortnight ago, and at q
time when the greater part Of the male popula-
ton we're absent to defend, as they thought,
their more exposed neighbors. Four men, one
woman, and three children names not given)
we're inhumanly murdered and scalped. Some
houses were also fired and reduced to ashes by
the savages. 1t is supposed that these outrages
were committed by the same party who burnt
the house Of Mr.. Smell, and murdered Mr..
Cunningham, near Manatee, few weeks ago.
Under date Of March 4th, q writer from Key
West, states:
"The renewal Of hostilities by the Seminole
Indians, in numbering several men at the Miami
river, and burning the buildings on Malta
GAMBIA, with other depredations on the coast,
has created such panic that all the settlers
on the Keys, from Cape Florida TO Key West,
have abandoned their homes, and come to Key
West for sSety."
A letter from Indian Key of the 10th instant,
mentions some late depredations there by the
Indians, and one murder, expressing the
anxious desire Of the few settlers remaining
