Trade Actiyc.---Constant Arrivals ol
New Goods.

Trade Actiyc.---C0nslamt Arrivals Of
New Goods.
EV Hardly day has gone by for
some weeks past, that We have not no.
ticed more or less arrivals Of new goods
for some of our merchants. We fully
believe that more business has been done
the present fall, in Independence, than in
any town Of its size in the State. The
'ctive competition among our merchants
has brought prices down to the very low
est figure. SO low, indeed, that WILL
cox and BuLLEN have both sold goods to
merchants in surrounding towns. Mr..
WILcox sold one or two such bills the
past week, which went to towns in this
and adjoining counties. He has very
extensive and varied stock, and is selling
most Of the lighter kinds Of goods at
Dubuque prices.
Messrs. MuSsos u DusHAM. we notice,
have also been in receipt of an excellent
stock of Family Groceries. Boots and
Shoes. Wooden Ware. DC. These gen.
tlemen are more particularly engag ed in
this branch of trade, and therefore not
only keep good stock constantly on
hand, but are enabled. by judicious pur-
chasing, to sell this class of goods a
shade lower than they can elsewhere be
obtained.
We also, yesterday, looked in upon
Messrs. kINsLEY " BowLEY, and find
that they have their store filed to reple-
ton with what seemed to US to be more
than ordinary good stock Of goods
They have an excellent assortment of
heavy casimeres, for pants large stock
Of boots and shoes, among which were
lot Of ~ ladies' boots piles of prints,
ginghams, sheetings, drillings. crockery.
de-, which friend KIxsLEY intimated
were to be sold IS cheap as the cheapest.
Those who cannot now get suited in In
dependence. both as regards goods and
price. must be hard to please.
Sad Accident.
L We understand that Mr.. GALEN
SHuRrLEEr. Of Quasqueton, was very Sc
riously wounded one day last week, by
the accidental dischare Of his gun. while
out upon a hunting expedition. The
entire charge Of large sized shot passed
through the fieshy part Of the right arm,
just below the shoulder. tearing the mus
cles in shocking manner. but fortunate
ly, we understand. without injuring the
bone or any OF the larger blood-vessels.
The wound was dressed by DR.. HASTINGS.
and we are glad to hear that it promises
to result in nothing more serious than a
partial loss Of power Of the arm.

MORNING. MARCH 30, 1855
A SCENE In THE HOUSE OF LORDS

A SCENE IN THE HOUSE OF LohDo'
A little scene occurred last night IN the
House of Lords, which is certainly not very
imnortant in a political sense, Out WHICH
oreatlv amused a very large assemo'age,-
IT, House was crowded. English royalty
:. renreseuted by Duke of Cambridge,
snd American Republicanism by Mr.. Dsl-
Las the Minister of the United States.-
The ex.Cbancellor was there to congratu-
late the new Chancellcr on his elevation.-
Lord Pslmerston, the Premier of yesterday,
stood at the foot of the throne, awaiting the
arrival of Lord Derby, the Minister OF to-
day. ou. /,
The Opposition benches were filled by
the "outs," the Ministerial benches by the
Gins" and last, but not least, there was a
good store of Peeresses in the side galleries
whose fair presence was sufficient to allay
all impasiencs for the commencement OF
the Ministerial explanation. Two Peers,
Lord S~haftesbury and Lord Clanricarde'
opened the proceedings. Lord Shattesbury
presented several petitions in favor OF al
lowing the Gospel to be preached without
let or hindrance. Lord Clauricarde gave
notice that he would, on the 10th, indulge
the House with some leaves from his own
autobiography.
These small matters being disposed Of,
up rose Henry, Lord %Brougham, with all
the pomp of q veteran of rhetoric, to an
nounce that he was about to put a ques'
ton of grave import. The place, the occa.
sion, the man-sll circumstances, seemed to
point to q question of no ordinary charac'
ter pointed at the particular matter with
which the brains of all those present were
stuffed. When the preliminary HIurlshes
were over, and Lord Brougbam disclosed
his real object, it turned out that his only
business was to ask Lord Malmesbury,
the new Foreign Secretary, u little barmless
question about some Slave Trade returns.
It was the old story Of the mountain and
the mouse, and the spectators, very excusa-
bly,, laughed; whereupon, we gtieVe to say,
Lord Broughsm lost bic temper and threat
ened every ~body-the ladies included, tor
the ladies we're laughing at him too-thst
he would have them all turned out of the
House if they dared to smile again at any
ting that proceeded from bis august lips.
Surely, if Lord Brougham objects to q lit.
tie laughter he need only refrain from such
performances, aud the audience will sit a.
dull as mutes at q funeral. He should
have accepted this harmless bilarity as a graz
tifyipg compliment to his comic powers
which are far above the average.
If we mention this little incident in con
junction with matters of far gra,er conse'
ouence, it is to give q true idea of the pre-
ceedinps last night in the House of PEERS
Lord Brougham grati6ed the audience with d
charming rendering of Sir Anthony Absolute
before Lord Derby came on as the chief per
former in the wheel of Fortune. "-London

EXTRAORDINARY AFFAIR.

We find the following account of a very
extraordinary affair, alleged recently to have
happened in Kemper county, Miss, 10 the
last number of the Philadelphia (Neshoba
county, Bulletin;
"While Mr.. Duncan McLaurin, living
two miles northwest of DeKa alb, was 10 AL
ALBANIA, Mr.. Everett Roberts and his wife,
Rigsby, bis overseer, and two or three 9th
or persons, in company with q carpenter
in the employ of Roberts. by the name of
Newson, went to the residence Of Mr.. Nc
Laurin, for the purpose of getting his daugh-
ter to marry Newson. Roberts and wife
went into the house, aud not finding the
girl, RS wife went into the kitchen, where
the girl was, and talked with her some time,
trying to induce her to marry Newson; but
the girl replied that she knew very little Of
the man, and bad never agreed to marry
him. When RS wife came back into the
house, the girls mother asked them what
was the matter. Their reply was that 1t
was none of her business. They all left,
and that night q portion of the same crowd
(Rigsby along) went back to the house, and
not finding the girl at home, asked a little
bow where she was, and he told them that
she was at Mr.. Moss, Ia near ~neighbor;) so
thew left and went to Moss. One of the
company went into the bnuse aud insisted
upon the girls marrying Newson, but to no
purpose, whereupon Newson went in and
asked to see the girl privately. and the glrrs
sister, who was with her, said she intended
to hear every word that was said. Newson
told her that he had already taken out the
license, and that if she did not marry him,
both would be disgraced; and after much
tormenting and exciting her, she went to
Rogers house and was married to him.
When Mr.. McLaurin returned home, Rob
erts sent him q note by Rigsby, and Nc
Laurin told him if he or Rigsby wished to
have any communication with him, that they
must send it through RS son or negroes
that he would not have anything to do with
them. The next morning Rigsby appeared
again, and McLaurin told him the same -
The third morning be made bis appearance,
aud was ordered out Of the house, but would
not 20, and gave Mr.. and Mrs. McLaurin
the lie, rising from his seat and running bis
band into his pocket, and commenced taking
it out; and ~thereupon Mr.. McLaurin pulled
down bis gun and shot him through, saying
at the time that no man should give bis wife
the lie. When the jury of inquest examined
the pockets of Rigsby. the Sheriff took from
his pocket an open knife.
We received the above statement from a
very reliable citizen of our county, who was
over in Kemper at the tim OF the occurrence.
