Editors IHfeHigencer.-I send you enclosed
to-day, a tabular comparison of the vote for
Buchanan aud Fillmore, in this State last fall,
and the returns Of the recent election, as far as
have been able to get them.
We do not know what Rollins majority will
precisely be, but VIC feel confident thathe has
enough 10 make him triumphant If he had
been beaten by 5000 votes, it would have been
a triumph, when We consider the facts of the
case But a few months ago, Missouri was even
moro famous for violent rufiianisIn--for Atchi-
sonism and Stringfellowisn, than she is now for
being the most conspicuous among all the slave
States for free soil and free white labor. The
election is all that is talked about here, or
thought about, and good and intelligent men
find it a continual source of congratulntion
every time they meet In the words Of Benton,
in the days of the famous "cxpunging resolu-
tions,v he set "ball in motion" in this State,
during his last term in the L. S. Senate, which
will not he stayed.
As an adopted sou of Missouri, of course
rejoice Mt our future prospec 5, and as native
of the Old Dominion, l hope to see her, ere long,
taking rank beside Missouri. But be that us it
may, it forever puts an end to mobs and the
reign Of terrorism over political opinions any
where i'll the Northern Slave States, which is,
indeed glory enough for one year.

A Crn1ous SToiyY.-Tllere is some curious
gossip about the widow of ''the late" Robert
Schuyler, the famous railroad financier, in let
tiers from Saratoga to the New York papers
Mrs. Schuyler, Formerly Mrs. Spicer,) it seems,
is erecting n magnificent castellated cottage,
about half mile from the Lake House. The
question that bothers the gossipsiS, wheredid the
money come from? Again, n very mysterious
looking building has been erected near the cas-
tellnted cottage, with which it is said to have a
subterranean communication. 1t is little
stone building, with windows high up. The
workmen shake their heads, and give out that
people who believe that Robert Schuyler is dead
are very crcdulous and very green; and more
than intimate that the mystcrious clubhouse il
question, though nominally chapel, has been
built for his especial Accommodation. This is
strange story, but strange stories are the order
Of the day.

SHALL WE GIVE UP THE HooP?-The Express
appears to think that hoops must now go out oil
fashion, because they arc becoming so common,
in their use, to the whole sex. We beg to put
in doubt on that subject The same reason
would drive stays out OF the feminine market
altogether. Women wear them instead, mi
verSaIly, and console themselves ny limiting the
distinction TO form and co$tiness And thus it
will be with the hoop. II Is one Of the most
graceful, as it must be, in summer, one of the
most comfortable Of ull inventions recently APP
piled to female costume 1t is too useful, too
valuable an article, therefore, to be lightly a.
bandoned. 1t is 50 seldom the sex are favored
with discovery in garmenting that is really
sensible and judicious, that they cannot afford
to rclinquiSh one when possessed oft. Fashion

wholeSome-all benefit tile physician and ap0th-
ecary more than they do those who indulge in
them and desire to transmit healthy physique
to posterity. But the modern hoop has nothing
in common with such eccentriciIies. When not
exaggerated in its dimensions by bad taste, it is
a beautiful innovation upon the old habit of
wearing an entire wardrobe pcrtfu, in order 10
give sufficiently yoluminouS flow to the dra-
perry outside. Such an auxiliary to nature
should never be permitted to dicout- The round

IgtAE?S E 81 lRKg instant is indebted to Lieut.
| Wood, q. S. A., who arrived here last evening,
from Texas, en- route for Washington, for the
following facts, which were received by him from
Lieut. Hood, of the I'd artillery, just as he was
leaving Texas:
Lieut.. Hood, company G. I'd cavalry, reports
an engagement, OH the Goth July, at the head OF
Devil river, with forty.fye Indians. He had
twenty.four men on a scouting party; was in
formed at Fort Mason, from which he was de.
tachcd, that band of Lipans had obtained per-
mission to bring in their families, and if they
encountered any of the scouting parties, they
were to hoist white flag. On the goth, he dis
covered ten Indians who raised awhile flag
He kept seven men with his pack mules and
started towards them, and when he approached
within about thirty yards, they Immediately
lowered their flag, and some thirty Indians
sprang up and commenced firing rifles and ar
rows. These shots were forthwith returned,
and close combat ensued. Lieut. Hoods men
were armed with yagers and one revolver each.
Tho melee became so close that one of the men,
after firing his gun, hung it over the pOmmel of
his saddle, and an Indian took it off! He killed
nine Indians and wounded ten or twelve. Lost
two men, one killed and one missing; ono dan
gcrously wounded; himself and three men were
wounded; and one horse was killed and three
wounded.
Lieut.. Hood had seventeen fighting men in
the engagement. His guides counted fortY-tive
Indians, and stated them to be Lipans and Ca
nanches.
