Nj. e. General Conference.

The New York Times Buffalo cores
pondent says that the Slavery Committee
of the NJ. E. General Conference, appointed
a subcommittee to draft the report which
should be presented to the Conference. This
subcommittee have agreed upon the report
shall be presented to the Conference. 1t
recommends that the General Rule be
changed so that the clause on slavery shall
be as follows: "The buying, selling, or
holding men, women, or children with the
intention to enslave them" The chapter
on slavery will be as follows:
CHAPTER VII. OF SLAVERY.
Q.-What shall be done for the extirpation
of the eUI of slavery?
Ave declare that we are as much as ever
convinced of the great evil of slavery, and we
believe that the buying, selling and holding of
human beings as chattels is contrary to the
laws of God and nature, inconsistent with the
Golden Rule, and with that rule in our dis.
ciplne which requires all who desire to con.
tinue among us to "do no harm," and ''to
avoid evil Of all kind" We therefore afec-
tionately admonish all our preachers and peo.
pie to keep themselves pure from this great
evil, and to seek its extirpation by all lawful
and Christian means.

WASHINGTON, May

WASHINGTON, May Is.
The nomination of Calhoun Benham as
District Attorney of California is confirmed
by vote of p to 19. Aft the Republi-
cans present voted in the negative. Mr..
Hamlin called division by yeas and nays
and Mr.. Wilson assigned as the reason that
be had been concerned as second in the ia
tai duel against Senator Broderick, with
the peculiar circumstances attending that
tragedy.
Mr.. Douglas was absent when called, but
was sent for and came in. After asking
the reason which induced the division in
the nomination, he said being concerned in
the duel was not sufficient cause for reiec-
ton, and voted for his confirmation.
There is reason to believe that the late
Postmaster General Brown was aware of
some disagreement in the accounts of Fow-
Ter. The charge that the defalcation occur
red under Pierce's administration is un-
founded, as there is desire to conceal the
proper information.
Mr.. Brown, associate editor of the Con-
stitution was examined by the Covode Com
mittee to-day. He admitted having had an
office in the Custom House, for about nine
mouths, with salary nearly twelve dollars
yearly, but could not tell whether his whole
service in that period amounted to one week
actual duty, or averaged single day in
each week.
WASHINGTON, May l6.
The Japanese paid visit to-day to the
State Department.
The House committee extended on Mon.
day invitations to visit the Capitol but they
declined accepting at present, fixing no time
for that purpose, nor will they reply to mu-
nicipal invitations from New York and else
where, before being visited by the President.
They are particularly observant of etiquette.
The following named gentlemen voted
with the Republicans, ousting Mr.. Cooper,
Democrat, OF Michigan, out of his seat,
which was afterwards given to Mr.. Howard,
Republican.
Messrs. Adams, of Kentucky, Anderson,
of Kentucky, Davis and Harris, of Mary
land, Etberidge and Maynard, of Tennessee,
Hickwan and Swartz, of Pennsylvania, and
Gilmer, of North Carolina.
This is the first contested case decided
this session.
For more than an hour to-day the house
was nearly deserted owing to the members
going to the Senate to hear Mr.. Douglas.
Every seat in the spacious galleries was
occupied, while the floors of the chamber
was crowded with those having the privi-
lege of admission, including the foreign
ministers.

Douglas at the South.

On the 9Th inst, an immense mass meet
ing was held in Lafayette Square, at New
Orleans, the Hon. ISAAC E. MORSE, pre-
siding. The course of the secessionists was
denounced, and DOUGLAS was declared the
choice Of the people.
The following resolution was unanimous,
ly passed:
RESOLVED, That we, the citizens of New
Orleans, regardless of all the minor differences
of opinion that divide the people of this coun-
try politically, are of one mind and one heart
in support of the union of these States; and
that SO long as the constitution of the republic
and the laws enacted by Congress in accord
ance Herewith, can be maintained inviolate,
as we confidently believe can now be done,
we shall regard with horror and adherence
the attempt, whenever made or however origi
mated, to destroy the fraternal ligaments which
bind in links more durable than brass the SOW.
ereign members of this glorious confederation
together and we here solemnly pledge our
selves one to the other, and all our country, to
oppose all parties or fragments of parties, and
all aspirants for public office, irrespective of
partisan distinctions, whose claims to public
confidence are in any manner impaired by dis.
organizing or disuniOn sentiments or designs /;
and to regard as enemies to republican liberty
all who attempt to produce a separation of
these States, while within the Union their
equality of rights under the constitution are
susceptible of maintenance without recourse
to physical force.
The True Delta, commenting upon this
resolution, says:
This is declaration which embodies exact.
ly the true sentiment of Louisiana; it is brief
and explicit, and on the question of the UHion
conveys to the world the political creed Of
the Democracy of Louisiana in the most oathO.
lie sense OF that much abused political dis.
tinctiOn.
The same paper thus describes the con-
Guiding proceedings of the demonstration
At the conclusion of Mr.. Blacks speech
three cheers were given for Douglas, and given
with will. call for similar demonstration
for Slidell elected very refreshing and gene
raj expression in the way of grOaning and hiss
ing and derisive cheers.
This great gathering passed off in more
harmonious manner than any assemblage Of
the kind and of the number that we have wit
messed for number of years. There was some
interruption to one of the speakers by an indi
vidual who labOred under the idea that he was
funny, or else under bad red eye; but with the
exception of the excruciatingly funny remarks
of this facetious parsonage, there was nothing
to mar the quiet of the meeting.
The president then announced that process
sion would be formed, preceded by the band
to march to the Clay monument, where the
meeting was adjourned by Mr.. Hahn, after
giving three cheers for Douglas, three for the
Union, and three for Henry Clay.

AN extraordinary affair is related in the
Russian journals. Prince NEsvIrzKY was
some years ago murdered by his servant,
who possessed himself of bis papers and
fortune, and assuming the name of the
prince travelled abroad for some years, liv.
ing in good style. Afterwards returning,
he married wealthy heiress, named SoKo>
LOFT, and had by her several children. Re-
Gently his imposture was discovered, and he
has been sent to the mines of Siberia ; but
the Russian government has authorized the
children and the wife to continue to bear
the name of NEsvITzsKY.

Interesting Account Of q Fight be-

lntere.tins Account Of q Fight be-
tween tho Sioux and Chippewas.
Corre.pondence of Pioneer and Democrat.
ST.. CLOUD, May Is.
write in the greatest haste, the follow
ing particulars of an Indian fight, near here,
on Maine prairie. You can rely upon the
account as correct.
A party of Sioux warriors, ten in num-
Der, have been trespassing for many days
upon the hunting grounds of their ancient
enemies, the Chippewas. After committing
many depredations-the killing and eating
of a Chippewa COW, being one of the most
fagrant-they made hasty retreat in Or
der to escape the wrath Of their aggrieved
relations of the "other tribe" The scene of
the 6ovicids lies near the Agency, and the
Sioux had made in safety Sank Rapids, on
the night of Sunday the 18th inst. HoLK>
N.THE.DAY, ever on the alert to ventilate
his treacherous foes, had in the mean time,
with twelve braves followed secretly down
the opposite bank of the Mississippi, and
encamped at Sioux City in sight of the enc
my. HoLE.1N-THE DAY used every effort to
persuade Mr.. BEAUPRE, ferryman, to bring
the Sioux over at night, meditating their
determination, one by one, as they in their
innocence, unsuspectingly leaped from the
ferry boat. Mr.. BEAUPRE however, declined
interference, maintaining an armed neutra'
lily.
Vigilantly watched the Chippewas that
night, for any sign of escaping the Sioux.
But no sign was given them. The Sioux
fled and left no sign, except the drifting bat
teaux stolen to cross the river in.
The, Chippewas under CRoss-1N-SKY,
(HoLE-1N-rHE-DAY unaceountably going
no farther) gave skulking chase. By rapid,
secret movements, the Chippewas succeeded
in getting in advance ofthe enemy, and laid
in hazel bush ambush on the skirt of
Maine Prairie, in a position likely to CONS
mand the passage of the doomed band of
Sioux. About 4 P. NJ, (Monday, 18th
inst,) the Sioux came up in single file and
were fred upon by a dozen mot unerring)
muskets. One fell dead, two struggled Oh
about fifty yards, until having used all their
blood as means of fertilization, they
dropped also. A fourth seemed wounded,
but travelled with apparent ease about 200
yards, and suddenly dropped. The remain
six Sioux ran away with desperate haste.
Not gun was fired by the Sioux. The
Chippewas after firing, did not reload their
pieces, bnt commenced those beautiful musi-
cal whoops and bowls of triumph for which
they are noted in story and song. Ordin-
airy sagacity suggests to us that it would
have been highly appropriat e for the six
live Sioux to have given their exulting foe
the contents of their guns while the pieces
of the Chippewas were empty instead of
running of so.
An eyewitness describes the scene as
quite exciting. The frantic gestures, throw
ing up of bloody tomakawks, shouting, and
Internal contortions of the victors, surpass
description. One of the dead was beheaded,
and the head with the three other scalps
were brought in triumph to decorate the
homes of the brave. A.

A Washington correspondent says -
As the members we're coming out Of tho
Representative Hall, after adjournment,
a rather disagreeable fracas took place.
Mr.. John Randolph was accompanied by
two favorite dogs, who, in their haste to
get out, incommoded some of the mem
bers, who made some observations on tho
occasion. Mr. William Aston, on. CD
who, it is well known, was once before
engaged in aquarrel with Mr.. X. observ-
cd that puppies we're privileged in this

rccted toward him, and remarked, cal
ston, have great mind TO cane you,"
and Immediately struck Mr. Aston sew
oral times over the head and shoulders.
A scuflc ensued, when friends nterfcred,
and they we're parted. Some very bitter
expressions were made by each. Thus
tho matter stands at present.
