Archbishop Dixon, the Roman Catholic
Primute of all Ireland has issued mani
festo to the Catholics of Drogheda, in
which he denounces Napoleon III and his
course towards the Pope. He declares
that the prison Of Ham, rather than the
palace of the Tuileries, is the proper place
for the Emperor, and concludes his letter
with these words.
"But let us hope that voice will yet
reach him which, by the awe it shall in-
spire, will have the effect of paralysing the
Holy Father--I mean the voice of indig
nanl Catholic Christeudom, which, rising
above the jubilation of the enemies of the
Church over the world, will fall on his eal
some such words as these: Ro6Jer take
your hand from the throat Of the VicGr o.
Christ"

murdered bY his Slaves.

Virginia has just afforded fresh illus
tration of the love slaves bear TO their mas
ters. On January S0tb, DIR. William s.
Croxton, of Essex county, was killed by two
of his female slaves, who beat him to death
at his kitchen door with grubbing-hoe.-
They then burned the body, leaving only a
small quantity of charred and powdered
bones. The slaves confessed the crime,
and were committed to Jail. The deed was
probably provoked by outrages on their own
persons, for the Richmond Enquirer says
it was "not from any insurreetionary spirit"

The AGIournment.

The matter of an adjourned session Of the
Legislature in 1851 has been discussed in
caucus by the members, and it has also been
pretty freely discussed by the Republican
press in every portion of the State. We
believe the majority of the people of Ohio,
desire the present Legislature to dispatch
their business and adjourn sine die, in the
early part of March. If the public service
require it the Governor can easily call thom
together in extra session. Appropriations
can be made for the two years as well as for
one. We have no fears that the Legisla-
tive power Of the State of Ohio is likely
to fall into the hands Of the Locofoco party,
unless the Republicans shall be so foolish
as to order an adjourned session. Let the
subject Of re-districting the State be talked
of and made an issue when the census has
been taken, and the people know to what
they are entitled. We have no fears on
this point.

A personal difficulty happened after the
adjournment of the House to-day. AS Mr..
Hickman was returning home through the
Capitol grounds he was overtaken by Mr..
Edmundson, of Va, who, upon approach
ing him, called out, and drew back his
hand to strike. Mr.. Clingman, who was
accidentally passing, stepped up and seized
his arm, when Mr.. Edmundson struck at
Mr.. Hickman with his left hand, knocking
off his hat but doing him no injury. The
whole affair was instantaneous, and seemed
to surprise Mr.. Hickman. Mr.. Brecken-
ridge, who came up, took Edmundson
away, and the scene ended. The alleged
provocation for this attack was an insult
ing reflection on Virginia, contained in the
recent speech of Mr.. Hickman, in which he
charged that II men and COW had fright
ened the State of Va Wash. Cor. Tri6.

The scheme of Governor Wise TO take
forcible possession of the public offices at
Washington and turn out Colonel Fremont
in case he should be elected, was, it seems,
formerly communicated not only to Charles
J. Faulkner, now our Minister to France,
who thought il san easy thing to do" but
also to the Governors of the Southern States
generally. At a late Union meeting in
Knoxville, Tennessee, Judge Baily, former
iy of Georgia, stated this as fact. The
Knoxville Wing says:
"The Judge made one startling discIos-
ure, which was new to US all. Hesaid that
during the Presidential contest Governor
Wise had addressed letters to all the south
ern Governors-and that the one to the
Governor Of Florida had been shown TO him
i'm which Wise said that he had an army
IN readiness TO prsvsHt Fremont from tax
ing his seat, If elected, and asking the Co
operation of those to whom he wrote p
In remarking upon this the Louisville
Journal says that
"It is unquestionably true that Governor
Wise did, in 1856, write exactly such let
ters as Judge Baily describes. He was as
deep-dyed traitor then, as Old Brown has
since been. Il was well that Old Brown
should be hung at Cbarlestown, but we are
by no means sure that it wouldn't have
been better If Brown and Wise had dangled
at the opposite ends Of "a rope thrown over
a beam or the limb Of a tree, hundred
pound weight being attached to Wise's coat
tail TO establish an equilibrium"

The EXTINCTION OF vEsUUus.--Some
of the German journals announce seriously
that company of English capitalists have
made an application to the King Of Ma
pies for a charter for the extinction of YES
uvius. The principal scat Of the fire of
that volcano is situated several thousand
feet below the level of the sea. By cutting
a canal which would carry tho water into
the crater, the fire would be completely ex-
tinguished, aud the operation, would only
cost 2,oO0,000f., and would restore TO cult
vation land of ten times that value.
