arrived here on Sunday morning, the 22d inst,

Rechab, and in the afternoon attended church. on
the Island. To my surprise, l found the ladies
dressed in full costume, with silks and satins flow

from the wreck of the Inflated steamer HUNGARIAN
1t lsa common thing for the females who assist in
curing hsh, to be dressed in silk, with buge head
| dress, &c. The residents are yery hospitabIa
people, and especially polite to citizens of the Uni
| ted States.
On Monday, the 23d inst, l accompanied Capt
Pratt, OF the steamer Dirigo, of Bangor, Me, to
the vicinity of the wreck to take up ga snarl The
term being entirely to me, and presume a
noval one to your readers, will explain its mean
ing. One OF Capt. Bazly's divers from Halifax
went down in eight fathoms of water and made
last to "the snar," which was hoisted by the
steamer Dirigo, and taken into Clark's harbor
about hive miles from the wreck. 1t consisted of a
part of one of the steamers boats all wound round
with broadcloths, Silks gnghams, calicoes, and
other textile fabrics, estimated when taken up to
Wefgh ten tons. Upon taking this snar apart, we
found the corpse of lady, supposed from her dress
| to be cabin passenger. Some of her hair re-
mained and several pieces of clothing covered her
remains, but nothing was found to give the least
| clue to her name
aC
o'clock, near the church on the island An Ameri-
can ensign was used as pail over the rough coffin,
and the funeral procession consisted of Capt. Pratt
OF the steamer Dirigo, with his officers and crew;
| Capt. Gennie, of schooner Rechab, with his crew;
| Capt. BaZy, of schooner Cora, and his crew, to-
! gether with several residents of the Island The
burial service of the English Church read at
| the grave by Capt. Glennie, of the Rechab in
very solemn and appropriate manner, and the whole
| services were very impressive.
| Several trunks and vases hats and other articles
of clothing. have been recovered from the wreck,
Of which the friends will be notified as their
addresses can be ascertained
| The divers and wreckers find Cape Sable to be
very hard place for their operations. The reports
of fortunes made in securing goods from the Hunqa-
| rian are greatly exaggerated The expenses of
| operations here are large, and all the goods re-
covered are in deep water, great distance from
the wreck. one OF our divers yesterday walked,
without success, about one mile under water EIGHT
| to ten fathoms deep. The friends of the unfortu-
nate passengers arc assured that should any relics
be found by any of our divers, they shall be for
warded to the proper person as soon as their ad-
dress can be ascertained. Yours, W. H.G.
The BEAUTIES OF PRIzE FIGRrING-Sic Men Shot
and one RiHed-I esterday morning the steamers
Pink Yarbe, Charley Miller and Caroline left the
wharf loaded down with people, bound for the
scene of battle between Carney and Madden the
bruisers, whose preparations for conflict we have
noticed from time to time. The boats landed on
the Indiana shore, opposite to Twelve Mile Island
and the passengers crowded ashore. The ring was
soon placed in readiness for the mill. About half
| past ten O'Clock Carney entered the ring where he
remained several minutes, Madden not appearing
lie then lett the ring, and about again entered
| it, when Madden followed They took their CORNERS
| but soon changed, when the friends of Madden
began shooting right and left. One ball struck
near Carney, when he left the ring and made for
ms boat, the crowd running in all directions. In
the general teu de JOte six persons, we understand
| were wounded, and two or three cut with knives
The three boats landed near the foot of Fifth
street, an immense crowd being assembled on the
levee to witness the return of the victor The pas
sengers rushed ashore, and all at once pistol shots
were heard, and James Walsh fell pierced with
hive bullet or shot wounds, and instantly expired
In the excitement it was not known at first who the
assassin was those in the vicinity scattering to es-
cape any random shots. But subsequent testimony
disclosed that when Walsh had fallen, Pete Mcclure
and John Bohan brutally kicked the bleeding BODY
| Olhcer Bligh came and at once arrested Bohan-
Oihcer Gallagher took James Keegan, the assassin
who resisted, and was stabbed by the officer, and
finally rescued by his friends and carried off Off
Ger Gallagher then took John Bohan, and the two
arrested men were placed in jail.-LouisrWe Demo-

THE TEXAS ExcIrEMENr.-The Houston Republic,
of the 2Sth ult, is inclined to believe that an un-
necessary degree of excitement has been caused by
recent events in the northern portion of Texas, or
at least that the accounts of deeply laid and ex
tensive Abolition plot are greatly exaggerated
We quote from it the following:
''By many these outrages are attributed to the
| fanatlclsm OF Northern Abolition emiSsaries, but
the true cause WILL doubtless, be found in the whip-
ping an ederlypreacher some months ago at Dallas,
| Tor some lmprudent language made use of in SER
| mon, and the late outrages are the result of the
vengeance of the old mans friends. We cannot
and do not believe it possible that any white man.
| not actuated by more active motive than mere
though mistaken, philanthropy, could so far
forget the dictates of humanity as to be willing to
unloose these bloodhounds, for such the unbridled
| passions of negroes would doubtless make Them
mi nnla oh,
| have little better opinion of humanity, though
| not very exalted one al best than for a moment
to suppose that the suspicion excited of abolition
| incendiarism can be well founded in fact At least
we trust they have been greatly exaggerated both in
detail and cause for general alarm"

Mr.. GLADsroNE.-For the past month there have
been rumors, sometimes contradicted and sometimes
generally believed that Mr.. Gladstone was about
to retire from the English Cabinet. The last news
from England reported that the Right Hon. gentle
mans resignation was again considered imminent
He is understood to be in state of hestancy, but
the probabilities are that he will withdraw. In the
event of quitting office, it is Mr. Gladstone's nten-
ton to retire for a time from Parliament and pub

Mr. Gladstone was lately spoken of in the pulpit
