THE SUMNER AFFAIR AT WASHINGTON
A telegraphic dispatch from Washington, Of
date the 9th inst, says:
1t appears that early last night an individ
ual, representing himself from Virginia,
called at his (Sumners) room and imperi
ously demanded an explanation of certciu
parts of his recent speech. Mr.. Sumner
gave him no satisfaction, aud ordered him to
depart, which he did with threats. At a
subsequent hour three others called, haltiug
in the passage, and sent up word that they
wished to see him alone. They refused the
invitation to enter his room, where Mr.
Sumner was surrounded BY friends, and left,
sending threatening message by the servant
that they would come with force to assault
him at 10 o'clock this morning, when Mr..
Summers friends we're again present, in
view of these occurrences Some Of them
accompanied him from his residence to the
Senate to-day, apprehensive of personal Vi
olence.

HORRIBLE AND UENATURAL CRIME,-On
Friday OF last week, the residence of one
John Hackett, farmer in prosperous cir.
cumstances, located about nine miles from
st. Louis, Mo-, took fire and was burnt to
the ground. While the flames were raging,
Hackett was seized with belief that the
building had been fred by his son, a lad five
years old, and picking the little fellow up
he threw him into the flames. The child
was almost Immediately rescued by the by
ISLANDERS, but his legs, arms, and other per.
tions of his body were so horribly burned as
to preclude all hopes of his recovery. The
unnatural father was arrested and imprison.
ed on the succeeding Sunday.
