The appointnent sS maais1ats was commenced
on Saturday at about O'Clock, and caused pro
longation;6f the session. without adjournment till
about lat at night Il has been the writer's lot to
witness many strange scenes- many isgTacefal ones
in connection with legslasive bodes-but never did
he witness one to equal that In the senate Chamber
here hom1 O'clock till 1T on Saturday The sketch
reported for the osaard Is correct but Is not full
picture Of the scene Messs. Turner, Cowper,
Leach and Miller have rendered themselves notori-
Gus and there we're ono or two others behind them
who urged the course they took, but who had not
the manlness to take an active part in the scene,
and who; at length, abandoned their friends and
joined in the denuncistions privately against them
The scene seemed fairly to be opened again on
Monday but Mr.. Houston mot present on Satur.
day. took the initiative and denounced the leaders
in such terms as not to be mistaken. This was on
IN attempt to g correct" the Journal. But II was
resisted by Mr. Houston who insisted that the "foul
record" should 60 forth, and that those who made
it. should now be made to 60 before the tribunal Of
public opinion to defend themselves
Mr.. Turner had prepared nearly two pages Of
notes, taken whilst the journal was being read but
thought 1t prudent to keep them to himsc!f-secing
determination to resist all attempts to place the
Clerk in wrong position. Messrs. Turner and
Cowper attempted to justify themselves, and make
retreat with the best s'.se. tsey could The l.'
of appointments was gone through by abont o.
clock of Monday-two days, night, and portion
of Sunday having thus been consumed No other
business was done in the Senate on Monday.

Those who were on board the Quaker City, OF her
recent first trial over the Tehauntcpcc route to Cal

DRArH OF A GRAND DAUGHTER OF FLORA MAcDox-
ALD.-The Skye correspondent Of the lversOn Cou-
rier, dating October 30, avs" An aged maiden
lady, Miss Mary Macleod, died yesterday at the
village of Stein, Waternish. She was the daughter
of the late Major Alexander Macleod by Anne el,l-
est daughter Of Mrs. Macdonald, Of kingsbury, bet
ter known by her maiden name, Flora Macdonald
a name celebrated in history. Major Macleod
served some time in America. at the period Of the
Revolution, officer in the Royasts corps; and
his wife showed something Of the maternal spirit, in
conveying intelligence to her friends during that pc
riod Of trouble and danger, having on one occasion
narrowly escaped while carrying u message Scwed
up in button on her dress. After the hostilities
had ceased, Major Macleod and his family returned
to the Island of Skye. They both died there. and
their only daughter Miss NJ continued to reside in
the house at Stein until her death. She had long
been in infirm health, and had nearly reached the
age of ninety. She had several brothers. three or
four Of whom died officers in the army, and all de-
ceased before her. The lonely life Of the old lady
was relieved by her attention to the poor and dis
treSsed"
The above announcement in one Of our exchange
papers induced us to call upon friend who is prob
ably more familiar with the history Of Flora Mellon

country. lie has furnished us the following partic

Annie, the mother Of the deceased, bore strik-
ing resemblance to her mother Flora. Previous to
the rising Of the Scotch before the Battle Of Moors
Creek every precaution and artiiice were rcSortcd
to in order to eude the vigiant eyes Of the Whigs
A favorite method adopted for bringing the young
people together was giving Bills at various places
in Cumberland and Moore. At these gathering
schemes were canvassri and adopted which led to
the arming of the Royalists and their defeat in
