MoBBING NEwSPAPERs.-The performance
Of destroying newspaper office has just been
enacted in Newport, Kentucky. A man
named Bailey has for some time been pub
fishing an abolition paper in that place. 1t
had neither ability nor circulation worth
naming but was branch Of the "irrepressi-
BILE conflict" tactics, and supported mainly
BY contributions among the Seward men and
abolitionsts of the North. In moment Of
excitement. heightened probably by the liar-
per's Ferry movement. some men in New
port assalled the Office and threw the
types into the river. The act was foolish
one but will not hurt upon itsauthors. There
is neither good sense nor reason in attempt
ing to print paper whose sentiments find
no response in the community where it is
located If the ground is debatable, both
sides will have their advocates; but this at
tempt of Bailey was against the universal
sentiment of the community, and in defiance
of their protests. He was encouraged and
supported, as Brown was encouraged and

lists, for the purpose Of fastening the Predic-

HUNTING PARTIES.

ST. JosrrH. Missouri, Oct, 2S.-Hon. An
son 7. Burl!ngame, Of Massachusetts, who
passed through here Tuesday evening on his
way home, accompanied by Capt Dolliver.
has been having rare sport hunting buffalo in
Western Kansas. Capt. Dolliver has fur
nished the Leavenworth Register an account
OF their exploits on the prairies Of Kansas
From this we learn that Burlingame, and
three others, with mules, horses, three wa
gons loaded with camping utensils, provi-
sions and arms, left Fort Riley, following the
Republican Fork for the buffalo regions
The second day out, forty-ive miles above
the fort, they came in sight Of buffalo, killed
one and saw hundreds of others, with elk, an
telope. wolves, turkeys, and other game. They
were encamped out six nights and gone six
days. during which time they killed nine
buffalo. Mr. Buringame shot one BY moon
light, and the narrator killed another with one
shot while crossing the Republican river.
Lord Berkely has arrived in this city from
the plains. accompanied by nine others
He went out in August on hunting tour
His outfit is one OF the most complete We
have ever seen, consisting Of three wagons,
eleven horses and mules, and number Of
dogs, and all the necessaries appertaining to
comfort. Lord Berkely says he had de
lightful time while encamped on the prairies.
He went fifty miles beyond Fort Riley, where
buffalo, deer, elk, antelope, and in fact all
kinds Of game abound in the greatest abun-
dance. He brought with him number of elk
and deer horns, &C., which he intends taking
home to London. Heis enjoying good health
He will remain here few days, and in the
mean time dispose of his stock, after which
he will leave for England
