Exemption Bill in Missis-
sippi,

There is evidently strong dis
position in the Mississippi Legisla-
turc to protect debtors. In addi-
ton to the stay law, a bill has pass
cd the House amending the old OK
empton by extending the amount
exempted for each head Of family
to $4,000. The Jackson correspon-
dent of the Vicksburg Herald says
in regard to this bill:
A motion by Judge Acker, of
Monroe, that none Of the provisions
of the bill shouln extend to existing
Liabilities, shared the Same fate, also
a motion to reduce the $4,000 to
$500; also one to reduce the $500
exemption for each child, to $50.
A motion wac made for proviso
in favor Of executors, administrators
and guardians where minor chill
drcn were involved, so as to protect
their interests but it was laid on
the table, yeas SO, nays %. The
House seemed as much bent on the
bill, as Othello, in his fit ofjealousy,
did for his handkerchief. There
were many members, who did not
think the bill went far enough. A
motion was made to extend the
$500 clause to $4,000; another, to
make the exemptions granted by
this act to be in addition to those
now allowed by law; but these
amendments failed the latter, how
ever, on very close vote. Finally,
the previous question was called
and the bill passed as amended, by
yeas Sc, nays 27.

Execution of two Indian
Chiefs,

A correspondent of the Cincinnati
Enquirer gives the following account
of the recent execution of two In
dams at st. Paul, Minnesota.
Full particulars of the execution
of the two Indians, Little Six and
Medicine Bottle, at st. Paul, on Sat
urday last, have been received here.
These two Indians were the leaders
in the horrible butcheries of the
whites on the frontier settlements
two years ago. They were both
hung from the same scaffold at Fort
Smelling. The last scene is thus
described:
When the reading of the order
was finished, the executioners pro-
ceeded to tie their legs and pinion
their arms. During this process
they again repeated their prayers
in a firm voice. The moose was
now placed around their necks and
adjusted, and the cap slipped over
their faces.
The executioners and clergymen
then stepped to the back part of the
scaffold, and at ten minutes before
IL o'clock, Capt. Palmer gave the
signal, when the support was knock
cd from under the trap, and the bo-
dies Of the two chieftains fell swift
" and heavily. They struggled but
little and seemed to die easily.
Medicine Bottle apparently re-
tanned vitality the longest, but both

The Houston Telegraph contains
the particulars of the manner in
which Judge Gray secured his par,
don. 1t appears that he visited
Washington city for that purpose,
and was on the eve of returning
home without accomplishing the OBJ
iect of his visit, when he was acct
dentally introduced to the Rev. Hen
ry Ward Beecher, who voluntarily
offered to aid him. The Judge
laughingly remarked, "what will
my friends at home think of this ?"
The application for pardon was en-
dorsed by Mr.. Beecher, and speedi-
ly granted. As we were among the
number that expressed surprise at
the event, we publish this statement
in Justice to Judge Gray. 1t is al
so due to Mr.. Beecher to say that
he has recently exhibited a kind
feeling to the South and to Southern
men. Belonging toa class ofpreach-
ers that we have never admired, and
have regarded as evolves in sleeps
clothing" any act of goodness or
virtue, seems remarkable.-MarSh-

Bombardment of Callao by Span
iards---They are Defeated---The
Spanish Admiral Wounded and
Secretary of War Killed.
New YORK, May 21.-The Pana-
ma Star and Herald (extra) of the
18th has the following:
The United States flag ship Van
derbilt and monitor Monadnock ar
rived in the harbor of Panama on
the eve of the 18th inst, hav-
ing sailed from Callao on the 3d.
By these vessels we have news of
the result of the bombardment Of
Callao on the I'd. Atnoon the ac-
tion commenced from the shore
batteries, fire being returned by
the Berenguela, Villa de Madrid
and Blanca on the northern side,
and the Numancia, Rezolucion and
Alamanzo on the south. The Viii
la de Madrid and Berenguela were
so badly damaged early in the fight
that they were obliged to withdraw
70 San Lorenzo. They were after
wards followed by the Numancia
and the rest of the fleet, all more
or less damaged. The Spanish Ad-
miral Nunez is said to have been
badly wounded during the engage
ment. Senior Galvez, Secretary of
War, was killed by the explosion
CT battery.
The fight lasted until 4 o'clock
in the afternoon, when it termina-
ted by the withdrawal Of the Span
ish fleet.
Very little damage has been done
to Callao, only few hundred dol
lars worth Of property being said
to be destroyed, exclusive of what
the batteries suffered. Ten Peru
vians are reported killed and twen-
ty wounded. Nothing reliable has
been heard of the loss on the side
Of the Spaniards, but it is suppos-
ed to be very heavy.
Owing to the short time which
elapsed between the termination of
the engagement and the departure
of the Vanderbilt, that vessel
brings no further intelligence, nor
was it known whether the Span
iards intended to renew the attack !;
but it is supposed he will not. The
news of the defeat of the invaders
was received with great enthuriasm
by the inhabitants of Panama.
