THR ASSAULT UPON THx CAPTAIN OF THR
GLADIATOR AT NRw ORLgAHs.-The New
Orleans papers of Sunday give the following
particulars concerning the assault upon Can.
tain Hinckley, of the British steamer Giadia.
tor, in that city, on Saturday. The Picayune
says:
Capt Hinckley, Of the British steamer Ola.
oiator, came 10 the city yesterday morning.
ana went, In company with MIR. Eastman, ,
acubg britisn Consul In the absence of Mr.
mure, to see Mayor Munro about making ar
tahgemenis Tor the transfer of the sick men on
poard the Gladiator from the vessel to the
hospital.
After arranging matters with the Mayor.
capt. Hinckley and Mr.. Eastman walked
Gown 81 CHARLES street, and stopped at the
%. Charles Hotel bar.room TO take some re-
ttesnneht. .n Ihere We're some gentlemen in
ne room at the time, friends of the late Ger.
walker and his msn. They had been conver-
sing about statement made that the men
Drought here by the Gladiator had not met
WIN proper treatment on board, some h wing.
~ Is saio, oeen left seyenty-tWo hours without
any food, and this report had greatly excited
ana incensed their feelings. As Capt. Hinck-
ley and Mr. Eas man approached the bar,
three OF these gentlemen came up, (or were
aiTeaoy at the bar, We know not which, ans-
ther of their friends came up and one of them
remarked 10 him, shave you seen any of
these = Britishers !" The gentleman re-
piled, mo, but see one now" and there pom
man, rushing in between them, received also
blow on the side of the head.
People then came running in from all d.
rections, and Captain Hinckley and Mr.. East
man retreated out of the bar-room. The sc uffle
lasted but few seconds, and had loLg been
over when the crowd were still curiously in
curing what had taken place. This gather
Ing OF people, Immediately after the occur
renee, is what gave rise to the idea that Capt.
Hirckley had been mobbed-a rumor thar was
Current about the streets for long time after.
In commenting on The aft air, the Delta says:
The assault. upon Capt. HIncklsy is an affair
10 be regreti and condemned. EmphaticaiIy
and earnestly AS we have expressed our opin-
ion of the cruel aud trelcherous conduct of
Commander Salmon towards General Walker,
and OF the naughty and presumptuous course
OF the British authorities in Central America
we have no apologies or anything but decided
and earnest censure of such an Dsult as that
which was offered to the commander of the
Gladiator. II is true that some of Walkers
expedition, who were brought over by the
u lad ia tor, complain of the most cruel treat
lnent while they were on board of that ship !;
but unless it can be shown that the Captain
exceeded his orders, and of his own will op-
pressed and outraged these prisoners we think
the assault upon him is without palliation or
justification.

so, than garble under the guise of

affecting to express it.
Our contemporary prides itself upon
the powers of divination,-and certes
with excellent reason, for of the many
confident assertions which it makes as

all are as baseless as the fabric of a

they are very DESTROYS it should go on.
(Court-Is it admitted that Mrs.
Ramsay is entirely unable to be pres
ent ? The affidavit does not state so. J
Mr. Shipman-It was supposed that
would be admitted on both sides, and
it was not thought necessary to set it
out in the affidavit.
Mr.. Ramsay, husband of the alb
sent witness, was sworn and examined
by the court. He testified to the
facts of the sickness Of his wife and
the impossibility Of her being present
as stated by the counsel.
The Court-This will be conceded
to be a case Of the highest import
ance. The prisoner is arra;gned for
capital crime. He is humanely sup
posed to be innocent until found gull
ty. He is entitled to fair trial. The
cause was deferred at former term
with very great reluctance, and re-
membering that the matter rested in
the sound discretion of the court.
At that time counsel for the defence
were anxious to proceed. Z This is the
first application of the defendant for
delay. 1t is to be regretted that the
cause has already been delayed SO long
at so great an expense to the County.
1t would not be proper that all the
contents of this affidavit should be
spread before the public, though it is
due that something should be known
of its subject matter. Nert to doing
right is to secure the appreciation Of
the public sentiment. This affidavit
discioses the fact that about eight
days before the decease of the wife Of
the prisoner, she came to the house of
Mrs. Ramsay and complained of being
sick. Mr.. Harden requested that the
family physician should be sent for,
but Mrs. Harden refused. Mrs Ram

her illness she knew what medicine

A Wonderful "Diskivery."

Inc 6QlCOr OF Cne beacon HAS Hdu6
a wonderful diskivery." He has
been busily engaged for the last three
or four weeks in making this "diskive
ry," and has at last succeeded, and
has published it no less than three
times the diskivery" is, the Beacon
says, "that one of their contemporaries
had stolen an article from the Louis
vile Democrat, (of course) published
it as original"
We are really enchanted with the
amiable and indefatigable attention of
our veracious (?) contemporary up town.
Of course we cannot refrain from Civ
ing some expression to our gratitude,
but we frankly warn our readers, that
we absolutely dispair of its being at
all adequate to the interesting occa-
sion.
1t is true that there are some shall
low pated and inconsiderate people
who aver that the Beacon is more Gel
ebrated for vulgar personalities than
for trenchant satire, and its structures
more venomous than classic. But we
certainly see no reason why our CO.
temporary (?) should defer to the sick
ly caprice of the fastidious, or the
"exquisite delicacy" of mere literary
gladiators" 1t has long enjoyed an
un-amiable reputation for Alsatian
lore, and we trust that it will continue
to indicate its hard earned fame. Tai
lyrand once said that language was
made to conceal thought but we as
sert, what some folks call the Barber
ism of the Beacon, is right racy, GEL
tic qUlt, which reveals a malice it is I'M
able to conceal.
That there should be any intelli-
gence, patriotism CIR honesty outside
the Beacon sanctum is a supposition
too absurd. 1t is an outrage even in
conception, and we heartily applaud
our contemporary for the determined
and defiant manner in which it upholds
its Uested rights. But we hope it will
remember the old saying, to the i'm
pure, all things are impure" a maxim
which may be paraphrased thus, to
the dishonest, all men are knaves. y
We are induced to mention this for the
especial consideration of our friendly
CD contemporary, having perceived
with some concern that it has lately
betrayed a disposition to question all
motives but it's own, and to ridicule any
integrity foreign to itself We are
aware that this is a weakness com
mon to great minds,'' but then, it is
quite superauous and may be fraught
with satanic evil There are some
wicked people who would not hesitate
to turn our innocent paraphrases into
an ominous oracle, and besides, i'm
maculate virtue, like Caesars wife, OF
lagos good name, is worth nothing
unless above suspicion" Will it
take the hint.
We have observed with some amuse-
ment that the Beacon is much more
ready to comment than to quote, or as
some naughty persons remark, "per.
vert rather than to relate" An in
stance of this kiad occurs in it's obser.
