TERRIBLE AFFAIR IN GOLDSIiORO.
' By letter received here thie morning,
ww lentil that a most painful occurrence
took place yesterday in'Goldaboru', result
ing most probably, ava this time, ia serious
lots oflife. ;
tee erne tW torue difficulty had eiisted
betwenj) Dr. Davis nml a GtrmBrv a Jew,
we believe of ihe naqw of Odeoheimrir, and
it seems that aotne time Un week the Ifr.
haii caned the other. Yesterday, OJenhi
rner wttrrsnted Davis, and the putties met
for trial before a Magistral ft, in the store
of Messrs Washington & Andrews. It
would apjienr that Odeuheinier was very
josultioji in his lungunge to Dr. Davis, cull-
ing him a tinr.or using words to that effect,
and Davis was about io lay hold of a little
fire. sboveL tostrike him. Qtlenbeimer'a step
sun drew a pitol and shot Davie, the LaiJ
entering just about the lower end ol the
luny;, on the rij;ht side, and lodging in .the
back. The UJenbeimers, lattier ana son
fired in all five shots, and at the elder bad
his nUtol to Davis head to shoot him spam,
young Winfield Robinson, a nephew of the
Dr. s. snatched up a ipa Jo and struck UJen-
heimer on the. head., knoekine him down,
and fracturing his skull shockingly. This
turned the direction of Ihe pistol so that
the contents, Intended for Davis, entered the
back of the younger Oduulieiiner, near the
bnck bone. Thus the tragedy closed.
OJcnheimer and son are in jail and neither
expected to live, although thore are some
hoies of the younger, h is supposed to be
impossible fur the old mm to survive Ur
Cosdell took out a spoonful of bruins.
Dr. Duvis was removed t Dr. Crayt?n't
office where he remuincd at last accounts.
t was fenred that he could not survive the
night. lie had nrt weapon whatever at the
time of tha occurrence. Mrs. Uavis la
deeply affected, atid. owing to her critica
situation, fears are enteitair.ed for her life,
too, it is needless to say that the excite
ment in Cottlsboro' is of the moat painful
character. It see ma Odenheimer had war-
ranted Davis, which led to the caning of
last week; The trial before the Magistrate
was with reference to this latter occurrence.
Wil. Journal of tht 2Uk it,
The Wilmington llerald of tha 25th says:
"Dr. Davis at last accounts was better.
and some hopes were entertained of his
recovery. The older Odenheimer it was
thought would die; the younger Odenhei
mer would probably recover. The Cer
man residents were forced to leave Colds
boro, and one who persisted in remaining
was ducked and riddeu on a rail.

some on tliH Key, says:
. In tbe -everglades -these. ; pests of southern

and meti ravejthe guard on duty pass their
wliole time under bars. The sentry is pro
vided with a musketoe veil, or rather bag
thrown over the head, and kept out from
the face by a hoop, woolen clothes boots
and gauni ietod gloves protect the limbs and
body from their murderous attacks. Per
sons who have not esparienccd thiaj?eauty
of southern life will scarcely believe that
horses and cattle are actually bled to death
in a single night; and woe be to the soldier
or. f;aman who, by means of liquor, losos
command of himself and falls to the ground,
helpless and unprotected these insatiable

THE WAR OF THE FACTIONS IN
CREASING IN INTEREST.
The present condition of tbe happy Demooratio
faanlf throuL'liout ail the oantuern States, pre
aenta an iuteredtins; and instructive scene. While
enzaged io the deliberate and anserupuloua at
tempt lat fall to make capital for Buchanan, by
miarepreseutioz uu feelings and pnrposes in re-
terenoe to the south, perfect harmony and good
fellowship existed among them. But now that
tbe poseeioo of the public plunder haa been
cured to tlie party, and disappointment sita hea
vily upon Uie.uoirtsof many of its aiembera ia
euueefiuence of the rrestdent s refusal to allow
them any ptrtiuipauon in the enjoyment of what
they specially fought for, we see nothing but
bitter stnfu and furious wrsnqling in their ranks.
It is not to be denied that Uuchanan a urtsatil-
facViry manner of di'poaiue of the spoils has had
quite aa uiujb to do with the origin aod progress
of the war prevailing among the Southern De
mocracy, as the Kaii uui policy of Governor Ro
bert Walktr. Indeed, it was evident at tbe
time "of the Cincinnati Convention, that there
existed oo the part of a vast majority of the Sou
thern Democracy an obstinate duincunauoB. to
confer the botuinatioii upon Buchanan, although
they rusht-J heartily and unitedly to bis anpport
atlorwarda. And this disinclination orixiuatcd
io tha quiot aad uSuttered eonviotioo tlut Buiiha
uao's sympathies were all with tbe North, and
that be would even retain Abolitiout-ts In cfSco
to the caeluaioa of Democrats ( fact now pro
claimed by a Waxhinjtun correpobdent of the
Eiulrtr) for tbe purpose of propitiating tbe
faiulit'ism of the North, aad thereby materially
strengthening hia own party in that section. To
such a policy, tue aouutcra temocraey ooject,
and with reason. For, apart from tbe fljpitious
wrong of a Iemoeralio l'reideot affording susle-
nance ana encouragement to oownngot aoou-
tioniata, bia conrac in thia reaiiect necessarily in
volves, the exclusion from office of hundreds of
truo Democrats, who expected some tittle reward
for tbeir labors in tbe Presidential campaign.
Vnd Southern Detnocrata ef pectally have been
urievouily overlooked by the President fn hia
diitrihution of the plunder. Tbeir resentment
n consequeuee has been inflamed, and the u?ur-
tions an 1 trescueries of alker in Kansas
have presented them with s splendid oecaioo
for venting their wrath opnn the administration.
In hjrt, the apologist of Walker are the recip
ients of the favor of the President, 'and hence
will sustain Walker and the President uoder ell
'eircuai'lanoev, while, on the contrary, the assail
antKpf Walker aro generally those upon whom
tho lightvf the President's countenance has not
yet sulM-uotjiilly fallen, and hence the readihem
of the latter to pouuec down upon the adminis
tration . upon the slightest pretext. - The spoils,
therefore, the sjwilssare at the bottom of the
grand Detuocratto imbroglio, which at present
excite the attention aud internet of the country.
But this war between the factions, as we have
already intimated, is rapidly' increasing in both
interest and importance. New and, in many in
staooea, distinguished actors appear apoa the
field evry day, and existing indications justify
the prediction that the euttte Democracy of the
South will Soon array themselves on one aide or
tho other of the pending controversy inrelation
to (ho Kansas polioy of Walker and the Admin
istration. " In every Southern 8tte, the momeo-
tous struirsrle is Cast involving the great body of
the DeinMracy, and inpa short time we may ex
pect to see the line between the eotitending , fac
tions clearly and strictly drawn all classes aud
conditiona of Democrata ranging themselves
either under the banner of State Rights aod
Southern interest, or taking refuge beneath the
Frecsuil vting of Walker and Uuchaoao. It is
eaav to foresee on which" side a tenjority of tbs
Southern Democracy will take poaitioa in the
present controversy. Already, in nearly all the
States South of Virginia, there is aoarcely to be
found a corporal's guard, "who maintain the at
titude towards Walker and llio Administration,
which is-occupied by the Examiner and Enqni
rrr of this city. Oa the contrary; nearly all the
Democratic presses, "politicians, aod people of
the Southern States, saving nnd-pxeep'ing "Vu
ginia, Missoari. arid perhaps Kentucky, have
boldly arraigned Walker fend Buchanan,, aud are
enouooiog their tiansas policy in terms of. lust
ud indignant severity. " N
THE PUBLIC LANDS. -The
Democracy ,in Tennessee are be
coming alarmed at this land question, since
its introduction into the present ' coiiteit,
and its free aqd full discussion on the stump.
Tho immense, donations of .Public Lands
recently made by a Democratic Congress
to the new Free Soil States, to be squatted
upon by the meanest class of Foreigners
on earth, have awakened the attention of
the people of the old Statesand especially
the people of die South. The hea-y bur
den of taxation for internal improvements
in Tennessee, is arousing our. people to a
sense oftheir rights in Tennessee, and has
made thia question the issue of the' present
con test. At Athens, alter llatton had con
eluded a rejoinder to Harris, upon this sub
ject, an Intelligent Democrat twore that
if they bad this land issue ' on their aide,
they would beat the Americans fifty thou
sand votec in Tennessee I ,
If the proceeds of the sales of tho Publie
Lands, under Mr. Clay's. Land Dill, an
act sit! ponded bj Demooracy, in a law
passed in 1845, were distributed, the State
of Tennessee would receive the handsome
sum of TEN MILLIONS OP DOLLARS!
This sum divided would give to each Con
gresMional district in Tennessee, ONE MIL
LION OF DOLLARS I To bring this
subject more directly home to the -people,
to the common tnnsses, and the independent
voters, we present another view of it.
At wv have but about righty counties
in Tennessee, which is an average of eight
counties to a Congressional District this
just and equitable distribution would give
t6 each. ONH HUNDRED AND TVVEN
TY 17 VE THOUSAND. DOLLARS J
Or, if governed by the Federal population,
it would give to some counties $200,000,
toother 1150.000 and.jo nthers 9100,000
and so on , down to $50,000. Our good
f-Hinlv of ' A'nor, would receive TWO
Hundred thousand dollars
What a blessing to the people I . What a
ndief to the )(ax.-pnyer! - But instead of
this relief we are receiving none of the
proceeds of the sales of these) lands. And
every Democrat in Tennessee, now on the
stump, from Gen. Harbis down, including
their candidates for Congress, for the Slate
Senate, and for tbe House of Representa
tives, is fighting against this measure our
last and only hope of relief from taxes too
intolerable to be endured longer I Will the
people sustain them in this war upon their
best interests ? Can honest and impartial
Democrats, looking to their own, and to the
State 'a interests, vote for these anti-Dittri-I
it inn candidates ? How important it is,
that we elect a Governor and Legislature
favorable to this policv I And how impor
tant it ix, that we send men to Congress
who will urge this policy upon tbe coun
try f ;
The proceeds of the sales of the Public
Lands distributed among us, will make us
whole without them, we are involved in
heavy liabilities, which will keep us bowed
to the earth for years to come. These
Lands all go to the new Abolitiin Slates,
fof the benefit of Foreigners, Paupers, Con
ricts, and bigoted Catholics, who are rush
ing to cur shores, at an increase of oue
hundred per cent, under this sham Demo
cratic Administration, and swelling the
rankt of a Bogus Foreign Democracy, that
is to subvert this Government, and over
throw this Republic, sootier or later ! Let
the people of Tennessee make'this issue-
let them demand their just rights let them
withhold their votes from men who are vile
enough for base party purposes, to turn over
all we have, bjth dear and sacred, to a
horde of foreign paupers and enemies, thit
thev may be elevated to offices of honor
and" profit -BrowUiw't Whig-
ANOTHER EAfTKMENT IS XA.N-
, . - - SAS.
The town of Doniphan, in Kansas, was
thrown Into a state uf excitement on the
6th instant; iii consequence of a fracas be
tween Capt. John IL Bovd, formerly of
South Carolina, and Cnpt. Mitchell, one of
Uen. .Lanes aids. J he latter, it appears,
took exception to a portion of an oration
delivered on tlie 4th by tbe former, and sent
bin. a challenge to fiht a duel with mus
tets at torty nacs. The challenge was ac
cepted, the parties met, and were about to
lire, when the civil officers arrested them.
A letter says :
Whilst this attention of the pro-slavery
p irty was directed to the affair between the
hellieereut,tbe frcrsoilers took thirty-seven
of their muskets from a log house not far
bdtfw the hotel, and carried them to a free
soil boardiiig'.house" beyond Gen. Lane's
mill. As soon as this, fact became known,
the pro-slavery party sent a committee to
tttmnnd'tbe Restoration of the guns. "Tlie
fieesoilers refused tn give them up. The
pro-slavery party told them they would
give them until two o'clock nest day to re
turn them, and if they were, not then re
turned, they would crane and lake thiim.
Runners were then sent out to the coun
try by both parties for reinforcements, arid
small snuads came flocking in from all quar
ters, thoroughly jprepared for battle. Night
came on, squaAs still continuing to come in.
The storm of war wjts lowering and por
tentous. Gen. Whitfield deemed it proper
to send an express to Governor Walker, in
forming him of the conditioner thingsTand
to send the records of the land office to
Fort Leavenworth for safe keeping.
Just at dark the free State party agreed
tnybritig their muskets to Capt Dunning,
