DISGRACEFUL AFFRAy.-OSE MAN
KILLED AND TWO WOUNDED.

lIsg- Quite a serious affray occurred at
Independence, on Monday last, election
day, between some Irishmen, engaged on
the Dubuque and Pacific Railroad, and
the proprietor of brewery in that place,
assisted by some half-a-dozen Germans.
The account we received of the ARRAY,
from a reliable source, states that some
lrishmen went to the brewery, or to a
saloon attached to it, and soon got into a
difficulty with the proprietor, either be-
cause he would not sell them beer, or, as
another report has it, on account Of the
change profered them. a fghtensued,
during which the Irish were driven off
the premises. 1t was renewed, however
IN the street, and German had his scull
badly fractured by a blow from knotted
club, dealt by one of the Irishmen. The
proprietor of the brewery was chased by
the Irish into his house, when he seized
a loaded gun and shot one of his assail-
ants just above the hips, the ball enter
ing one side and coming out on the OPP
posite. He shortly after expired. AT
the latest accounts, the German who had
his sc1ll fractureu was -rrvU rNP-0rc.' 10
= 10y another German was in a
precarious condition from injuries re-
ceived. 1t is certainly an unfortunate
and disgraceful affair, and we hope no.
thing will be left undone by the author
tiles for ferreting out and Furnishing the
guilty parties.
Since writing the above, we learn from
the C'pit'on that the name of the person
killed was Patrick Scanlin, and that of the
owner of the brewery, who shot him,
Michael Hunter. The German who had
his scull fractured still lies in a precarous
condition. His name is Gustavus Letze.

DRED SCOTT MEETING.

A large and enthusiastic meeting was
held in the Assembly Rooms at Albany,
as public demonstration of the feeling
of the citizens of that part of the Empire
State, excited by the bred Scott decision.
Eloquent speeches were made by the
President Of the meeting, Hon Geo. w.
Patterson, and Hon. Henry B. Stanton.
The letter, after enumerating the point
made by Judge fancy, said:
This decision, sir, has shocked the in
telligence and moral sense of all that is
free in the country. 1t has aroused the
fears of the timid, and kindled the indig
nation of the bold. The Genius of Liber-
ty leaps to its feet to declare that Its au-
thors have won high place on the scroll
of 'atrocious Judges, who, in evil times
perverted the judgement of the just and
+" framed iniquity of the law" Embalm
ed in It's infamy, their works shall follow
them, and their names shall live forever.
loud applause.
After recapitulating the provisions Of
the bill, reported by the Legislative
Committe, every clause of which was
greeted with thunbers of applause, he
closed a mastery speech in the following
words:
Mr.. Presid ent, we are on the thresh-
hold of a great conflict for impcrishable
Principles. Trusting in God, let us re-
pei on human aid from whatever quarter
offered; yet let us rely meinly for success
upon the Teutonic elements in our popu-
lation-the Anglo Saxon, the Netherland-
ish, and the High Germanic races, whose
history is made illu5taious by services
rendered in many climes in defence Of
Civil and Religious Freedom. Ap-
plause. If this be "Americanism, -
make the most ofitl Laughter and ap-
plause.)
Looking at the horizon with the eye OF
the mere politician, it seems shrouded in
thick darkness. But with the eye of un-
doubling faith in the divinity. of our
cause, we pierce the gloom and already
see the morning bushes of that coming
day-that glorious day, whose meridian
SUI, as it surveys our wide domain, shall
see no slave moistening the soil which he
tills with his tears--no master crimson
ing it with the blood of his victim.
Loud applause.

When one company openly declares that

equivalent interest in the same result, our
friends abroad may rest assured that we

of Buchanan have abundant faith both
IN the road and the company, and have
not hesitated to loan her credit to them.
AT this result we rejoice, not from local

We regard it as the stepping stone to our

prosperity-placing her in the first rank
as regards population, wealth and agri-
cultural productiveness.

GRAND CHANCE FOR INVENTORS.

n- The Ladies in this vicinity, hav-
ing decided to enclose themselves in huge
steel bands, commonly called hoops, and
yet having some apprehensions that they
may thereby offer considerable attraction
to the electric fluid during the thunder
storms of the approaching summer, offer
a large premium to any one who will in
vent a delicate electric conductor that will
insure their protection. We are not al
liberty to say what the. reward will be,
but if it is proportionate to the extent Of
the subject, we can safely assure the lucky
genius that it will be large.

From information received from private
source, however, Porter's Spirit is of
opinion tn at FeWs LIFE has made an err
ror in the true number. The Spirit is in
formed that Mr.. Ten Brock has three
entaies, viz, Lecomte, Prior and Prioress,
all of whom at the last advices were In
fine condition, having entirely recovered
from theirae cent ailments Prioress was
entered for the Stockbridge Plate, which
is to be run for on the Goth of June, and
both Proress and Lecomte were entered
for the Champagne Stakes and brighton,
to be run on the 9th of August ; but the
Spirit thinks they will now pass by those
events to save themselves for the grand
encounter. According to the conditions
ofthe Goodwood race, Lecomte will carry
124 lbs, Pryor 12l lbs, and Prioress
100 lbs, four pounds being allowed to
Prioress as n mare. 1t will be seen
there fore, that Lecomte and Pryor will
run at an advantage of IA pounds less
than English horses of the same age, and
Prioress 18pouuds less. Add to this the
fact that Gilpatrick, the famous jockey,
and numbered other American jockeys,
are engaged to go over to look after Tn
Gle SANS Flyers, anu rIe prvspvv. g
success seems fair. There is also some
likelihood that Mr.. Prior, the celebrated
trainer after whom the racer was named
will go over to superintend the American
stable. The Spirit is informed that five
or six more American horses are to be
sent out.

The Locofoco politicians are making a
great effort to strengthen the Methodist
Episcopal Church South, in Washington
City. To this end, leading Locofoco pol.
iticians, both North and South, are sole
ting and contributing, not on religious
but political grounds.
The True Union, of Alabama, in motto
ing the appeal addressed to the South,
says:
"The object of this appeal must com
mend it strongly to Southern sympathies
We take pleasure in noticing that our Sen
ators, Toombs and Stephens, and our Rep
resentative Dodwell, and the Hon. Ste
phen A. Douglas, and other friends OF
the South, have not confined their zeal to
the advocacy of our rights on the floor of
Congress, but are pressing into eoery door
open to Southern influence to promote oar
cause! I"
1t is not the cause of Jesus Christ that
this appeal and these politicians seek to
promote, but " oar cause" the cause Of
Southern slavery.

friend to that class of persons who deem
that Christianity entails upon its disciples
long, sober, solemn faces, and that the
arrival OF a Sabbath morning should cause
the suppression of the natural feelings

Purianism. He says:

A Human nature presents many
and various phases, and, at least as far as
character goes, it is hard to find what car
justly be called an anomaly. We know
not that we have ever before noticed q
person whom we so regarded, but there
seems to have been some things under the
sun never dreamt of in our philosophy
We think we have discovered what NAV
safely be regarded as decided deviation
from the natural, or, at least, from the
ordinary--a man who is exceedingly in.
censed, indeed almost rabid, because he
thinks his neighbors have been trying tc
make him rich. To the late election VIC
are indebted for the development Of this
curiosity, for such we cannot but regard
him. A man who, in this country and
among this lucre- seeking generation, OPP
poses project upon the ground that il
increases the value Of his property, is
certainly a curiosity and deserving of spe-
cial mention. And such curiosity and
an anomaly we heard and saw last week
" | am agoin' agin the railroad" said he
TO aquestioner, "because it'll increase the
value of my farm, and ! can raise jist as
much grain on an acre when it's worth
five dollars as when it's worth hundred
and | don't want it increased in value. y
lie does not want to get rich, and because
the railroad would increase the value OF
his property, he opposes it. Certainly,
if he is ever hung it will be his own fault,
for no jury would ever require better evil
dence than this to prove that he is liable
TO a species of moral, mental or physical
insanity.

TRYING TO CREATE NATIONS. = The
London Times, in comparing the English
Cape Colony with that of the French in
Algiers, states that the former has now
been occupied fifty years, at a cost of not
less than five OF six millions sterling for
governing and defending it, yet the whole
population at the present time, including
Hotentot, free Negro, Dutch and English,
does not exceed $4,000 souls. The
whole ofthe appurtenant territory, spread
over not less than 10000 square miles,
serves no other object beyond providing
us with fresh relays of Caffres to fight.
1t will not take our convicts, it will not
fight its own invaders, and it cannot III
duce settlers to immigrate. The pet
colony Of the French presents very like
picture. Twenty-six years have been
wasted, and In province Of ninety mil
lions Of acres, three-fourths as large as
France itself the European population is
only $4,000, and has to be protected by
an army of 100, 600 men, at an expense
of some twelve million dollars per an

With the exception of the eye, the
lungs are the most delicately constructed
organs in the body. Life is in peril when
they do not properly perform their func-
tons. The least inflammation nterferes
with their regular action and then the
blood is imperfectly purified, the circu-
lation becomes irregvlar, the nervous
system is disturbed and the general health
suffers. We know of no remedy so
