PoliticGl.-Saturday night last was q stirring
one in this city for the membe of the various
political parties now striving for the ascend :
ancy in Federal management. AT Metropoli-
tan Hall, Hon. ROGER a. PRYOR, one of the
favorites of the Breckenridge party, addressed
a crowded audience in favor of his candidates
for President and Vice President, and was
rapturousiy .applauded al in tervas through
out his remarks. He attacked, with much
vigor, the position of Judge Douglas on the
subject of Squatter Sovereignty, and charged
him with being the cause of the discussions
now existing in the Democratic party. MI p
also reviewed the action of the Charleston and
Baltimore Conventions, defended the South
ern delegates for the course they had pursued,
and declared himself in favor of the Union
and this Constitution, SO long as The rights OF
the South were protected, as guaranteed by The
Constitution. Mr.. p. said he was no Yapcey
man-he was no disunioBist-andq 10 ted from
speeches made by his candidates To show that
neither of them favored disuuion. No man,
said Mr.. p, can show a word or syllable ema-
mating from John q. Breckenridge, that ca
Tx the charge of disuDion upon him, and If
The fact that he is supported by Yancey Is No
more evidence OF his being secessionisf, than
the support of Douglas, by Forney ana other
Back Republicans, is evidence of his being An
abolitionist
Mr Pryor spoke for about three hours, oc-
cupying portion OF his time in reading from
speeches OF j Judge Douglas, we'll as from
Wing papers, which denounced his doctrine
OF SQnatter Sovereignty AS even more OBJ
noxious TO the South than Black Republican

Shooting Serape.-Between the hours of II
and IL O'Clock, q shooting scrape occurred in
Main street, near the Dime House, between
two men, said to be from Baltimore, in which
one of them received wound In one OF his
arms. From what we could learn, soon after
the occurrence, it appears that there had been
some misunderstanding between Joe sum-
mers and man named Mullen-that Mullen
was standing On south Main street, and seeing
Summers approach from the north side, drew
a revolver and commenced firing upon him
After firing four times, and only one ball TAX
ing effect, Mullen took to his scrapers, pur-
sued by Summers, aud secreted himself in
some Of the buildings In rear q the dime
We learned yesterday, that Mullen, in his
night, cut himself slightly with his knife,
which he held in his haad at the time he fired
on Summers. The police were in search OF the
parties yesterday morning. aa4.

proprietor gave him an excellent supper, TO

Southland TO preserve inviolate those great
Democratic principles Of popular sovereignty,
which had been handed down TO them by the
patriots and statesmen of the past. AT the

cused from remaining longer with them as he
was very much fatlgued, and had heavy days
work before him for Saturday.

tlesnake. On Wednesday he had the snake In
q barrel with one head out for the purpose OF
exhibiting 1t. To give the curious view OF
his prisoner, he ''stirred him up'' with a stick
about foot long, when the snake retaliated by
biting him on the left hand. DIR. Manly was
called. and prescribed whiskey, 70 be taken in

wound. In the course OF an hour the bitten
man drank eleven full tumblers of whiskey.-

effect on him, bat after the eleventh he began

he never recovered. He was taken home, and
died on Thursday. es
