Tue REGULATORS" IN FLoRIDA.-The ST..
Louis correspondent of the Bulletin says
band of self styled Regulators, who organized
in Calhoun county, Florida, probably for the
purpose of ridding their vicinity of horse
thieves, or other lawless persons, attacked
the house of one Jesse Durdenaud, killed him,
and then killed two men, named Willis Mus
grove and Larkin G. Musgrove. At last ac-
counts, they were preparing to put some other
obnoxious persons to death, when the au-
thorities interfered to arrest their proceed.
ings Gen. w. e. Anderson ordered out the
brigade of militia for that section, and Judge
Finley of the local State Circuit, and Judge
Mcintosh of the U. S. Court. had declared
Calhoun county in state of insurrection,
and summoned the proper officers of their
Courts to attend the militia command, and
make arrests of the regulators.

ONE of the Bell and Everett electors of
Alabama recently charged Mr.. Yancey with
being falsi6er and traitor and hurled a
defiance in his face. Mr.. Yancey takes it.
He is anxious to "precipitate the cotton
States into revolution" but seems in no hurry

MIssIssIPPI.-In Mississippi, that remarka-
Lle man, Henry 5. Foote, whose speeches in
New York and Pennsylvania were followed
hy the Dobest vindications of Douglas in
Virginia. has taken the stump and is carrying
the war into Africa. He will make as COM
plete n canvass of the State as he did in
1850, when he was elected Governor over
the disunionists, and won victory after one OF
the hardest fought political battles. He will
be aided by General Matthews, Franklin
Smith, Hon. John Calhoun, and Hon. Mr..
Kenyon. The Bell men are said to have
made a proposition that the Douglas men
shall unite with them, and that, in the event
she State is carried against the Breckenridge
ticket the electoral vote shall be cast for eth
er Bell or Douglas, to elect without the in
tervention of the House of Representatives.

The TRAIToRs.-The Louisville journal
publishes the following extract from a letter
dated at Palo Alto, Miss, Sept. Sd:
Il do not take any active part in politics,
still can not but feel deep interest in the
present political contest, as it will have a
powerful influence upon the destiny of our
country for veal or for woe. A few days
ago, | heard a Breckinridge Democrat who
is a large stakeholder say frankly and posi-
lively that he would vote for Lincoln if he
thought it would elect him, in order to cause
the dissolution of the Union. '5traws show
which way the wind blows is homely but
truthful adage."
The Journal remarks as follows:
A prominent member of our city council,
who was recently in Tennessee, had conver-
sation upon the cars with a leading Tennes-
see Democrat, one of the Breckenridge stump
speakers. The Breckenridge man declared
without hesitation, that, while he should vote
for his own candidate. he sincerely and earn
estly hoped that Mr.. lincoln would be elec-
ted, as such a result would cause the imme-
diate dissolution of the Union, an event that
he heartily desired. And, fellow. citizens we
tell you that the whole of the intelligent
Breckinridge leaders in the South while
many of them might prefer Breckinridge's
election. know perfectly well that there is nc
conceivable chunce for it, and are laboring
for the direct purpose, a purpose which they
would scarcely deny if interrogated as pri-
vate gentlemen, of rendering certain the elec
ton Of the Black Republican candidate.

GEN. SHIELDS AND MExIco.-In The San Fran cisco Herald of the 18th ult., we find an interest ing sketch of lecture on Mexico, delivered by Gen. Shields in San Francisco the evening previ- ous. Some of the views he presented may be gathered from the following extracts:
 'What is the policy, or rather, what is the duty of this country with regard to Mexico? The time Is at hand when our Government must come to some determination on this subject Our general policy is non-interference but cases may arise where such policy would be very unwise. not to say criminal. Mexico must be saved to Christian ity and civilization. This is work that will have to be done by some power. The first obligation rests us, because God has placed us at the head of the nations of this continent. Our position in this respect is an exalted one; but exalted posi- tons impose corresponding responsibilities Power is great trust to be exercised with justice and moderation but the trust must be exercised When God enthrons nation an individual, not to act is to abdicate. Mexico needs guidance and protection. Our position enables us, our duty enjoins us to entend her both. By thus acting we will save splendid country, and on the whole simple, amiable, people from impending ruin. The United States has her Indies as we'll as Eng land. Our Indies are the Spanish countries south of us; but our mission is not to subjugate and enslave those countries, but to regenerate and protect them"

SAD AND FATAL AcCIDEST.-At Brighton, last
 week, at the well-known academy of J. S. Mosby Esq, in this county, sad accident occurred, re sulting fatally to W. F. Allen, from New Orean. student of the academy, aged sixteen years and some months One of the boys had been out hunting, and on returning threw his unloaded gun upon the bed. Young Allen took it up and began going through some military manuvres. While doing so Benj Mosby, son of the Prcsi- dent, boy of only eleven years, came in with his gun Tn hand. Allen soon brought down his gun and gave the command to fire, and pulled the trigger Thoughtlessly and on the spur of the moment, Benj Mosby did the same thing when his gun went off, lodging the whole charge in Aliens head, and causing his immediate death
 Allen was the only child of his parents, the last of family of six. Considered in all it's circum- stances it is the saddsst and most unfortunate accident of the kind which we have ever heard. The parents of both boys have the heartfelt sym- pathies of the community. Match Courier.
