Republican candidate, had &c. 29S; Mr. Pratt, Demo
crat, 33,545. Scattering, 2s5 Majority for Mr.
buckingham, 2,469. Mr.. Catln the Republican
candidate for Lieut.. Governor, had 3,sO5 majority
or about 400 more than Mr.. Buckingham. A
number OF Douglas Democrats probably voted for
Mr.. Pratt In consequence of his opposition to lie
compton, but not for Mr.. Smith, the Democratic
candidate for Lieut.. Governor, who did not occupy
a similar position. Mr.. Hendee, Republican candi-
date for State Treasurer, is elected by 22S MAORI
ty. The Straight Americans did not vote for the
Republican candidates for Secretary and Comptrol-

A DESTRUCTIVE WAR ENGINE.

We mentioned some time since that two of our
ingenious citizens, Messrs. Wright and Could had
completed the model of rotary cannon which could
be fired at the rate of sixty rounds per minute
Since that announcement the inventors have been
engaged in having constructed working model of
theg gun which is finished, and was tested yester
day afternoon in a vacant building on Washington
street. The piece is beautiful little brass gun
of the usual shape, mounted wheels, and
so constructed that rotary cylinder constitutes
the breech, which contains four charges, re
pcnished by means of hopper, and fired as
rapidly a can work an ordinary lever
backward and forward. The piece is discharged by
electricity, and from this results an important
and valuable discovery, which was developed
after the completion of the piece By means of the
battery and wires connecting with the cylinder by
which ignition is caused, the cylinder becomes per,
fcctly eectrsed, which keeps it as cool as if con
tinualy bathed with ice. Some two hundred rounds
were fired Yesterday in rapid succession at the rate
of about thirty rounds per minute, at the end of
which time, without using the swab once, the
brcech was much colder than when the firing
menced. The rapidity of the firing was much re
tarded by the bad quality of the cartridge in use,
but such as it it was sufficient to demonstrate
the complete success of the invention. We under
stand that as all arrangements are completed
the inventors will proceed to Washington and lay
their plans before the Government.-Bg6ato Ec-

The boot and shoe trade has been more active this
week, the purchases on western account having in

4 Nan IThipped 10 Death iciM a Handsaw.
A correspondent writing to us from Little
Rock, under date of the 30th ult., relates the
following:
On Tuesday, the 5th day of January, 1858,
at Reid's bridge, most inhuman act was
perpetrated About the lst of January some
$500 were stolen from the widow Reid, at
the bridge A negro woman was whipped
severely to force confession that she had
some knowledge of the money. Under the
torture, she stated that Mr.. Cobb, in the
vicinity, had got the money, but not till the
question had been often asked, if Cobb had
not got Tic money.
Elias Good tie brother of widow Reid, and
Martin Bell, her sen-in-law, went to Cobb's
residence, took him to the bridge, then sent
round the neighborhood, and gathered num-
Der of associates, took Cobb, stripped him,
and tied him across q log, and whipped him
with handsaw. After whipping him, they
started to go to his brother, in Prairie county,
II miles distant stopped after going s miles,
and whipped him again, and then returned
to the bridge AT that time the number whe
took part in the whipping amounted to fifteen.
Each one agreed to give number of licks
with the handsaw. Good said he knew the
law, and told them to 20 ahead. he had a bar.
rel Ct money, and would pay all expenses
They forced Cobb to drink whiskey with
them-whipped him Tuesday, Wednesday
and Thursday. Then, under some sort OF
mock trial. committed him to Jail at this place.
DR.. Webb called at the Jail to see Cobb, and
found him perfectly black, from his head to
his feet with large gashes in several parts OF
his body. The doctor said Cobb could not
live. lie fingered in great agony several
days, and died about the 18th inst.
Cobb begged the inhuman monsters. while
whipping him, TO shoot him, and end his mis-.
ery-not torture him to death.
Cobb's dying declaration was taken, and il
appears, from circumstances on the examipa.
tion, that he was innocent, as he steadily
averred while living. He has left widow
and four children.
Eleven Of the murderers have been arrest
ed, and four have made their escape. A
preacher is one that made his escape. Six
have been admitted to bail under bonds oi
two and four thousand dollars, as accessories
and FIVE are detained in jail for murder in the
first degree.

the subject. The foregoing are the main facts
