"disrespectfully of their alius. Of course, their a ";e is " offensive and defensive." What 'portion r :he Democratic People wDI fall into this atrocious Je.igie, remains to be seen. . ALL EXPOSED. We have seen several versions of what profess "to be exfcures of the signs, grip and doctrine of the " Know Nothings." JWe do not attempt to deny the verity of these statements, because it is unnecessary ; but It appears to us that the witnets ts In this matter are in rather an awkward predic ament. ' It is illustrated to our mind by the fol lowing supposition: A lawyer get up and addresses the Court thus : I will introduce a witness ia this case that will settle the matter in dispute. It is very true that he baa forfeited bis claims to the character of a man of honor and a gentleman; is a perjured wretch, by hi own showing; is, in fact, a most illimitable scoundrel, but the Court may be assur ed that in this case hi testimony may be relied ' en. . ' j, -.- . , : - . -a . This is the character of the evidence laid be- 1'ore the public in regard to the J Enow Nothings. We do not suppose that any man, in ordinary ea p, would admit such testimony and at the same 'time profess the least claim to common sense, or even sanity. And yet, o far as we can observe, it makes a " very good Morgan " for party most cspital testimony for politicians. THB KERR DINNER. The complimentary dinner without distinction of party, to the Hon. Jno. Kerr, came off at Yanceyville, en Thursday, the 28th ulL, The Milton Spectator says it was a mas meeting ; gentlemen from several of the neighboring coun ties and from Virginia being present. Hon. Cal vin Graves presided. Letters were read from Gov. Bid, Hon. William A. Graham, John M. Morehead, Taos. Ruffin, Thomas Bragg, . Henry W. Miller, and E. G. Reade, expressing regret that it waa out of their power to attend. The following Was the thud regular toast. John Kerr. Our esteemed fellow-citizen, our distinguished representative. We honor the man wavfcariesaly and ably advocated the Const i tu ttaaal Bights of the South, when imperiled by demagogues and fanatic. . Mr. Kerr-res ponded in a speech of more than an hour io length, and was frequently interrupted by the applause- of the assemblage. It was one of bis best efforts, and all seemed delighted, fie aid it was the proudest day be ever experienced, to see his friends thus come forward to express their gratification of his action upon this great national measure, ne then in a clear and forci- ble manner, gave bis reasons for voting in favor of the Nebraska bill, and proved thai the South bad gained much by it passage. At the close of Mr, Kerr's apecck a committee of four was ap pointed to solicit a copy for publication. In good time the meeting closed. ' Steamer BurntGreat Loa of I.Ue. D stb orr, Oct. 9. The steamer E. K. Collins, which left here last night with a large number of passengers for Cleveland, took fire about midnight. Bear Maiden, and was soon completely enveloped in flame. There was of course great consterna tion among the passengers, most of whom were asleep, and many plunged into the water. Twenty-three perished by fire or drowning. Among the missing are Mr, Dibble, of New York, Samu el Wkalon, and Thomas Cooke, the Pittsburg rail read agent. ' v'?;';i4' "..J ! . . I '"I' .'.!

' : "It is manifested thai when civilians adopt Ibis practice," they adopted with it certain modes of thought, not proper to be entertained by law-Abiding men. They do not carry these things with out a purpose, and to that purpose, dangerous and wicked as it is, their mind become habituated by the constant sight and handling of the instru-1 merits which suggest it. It is probable that a man can hardly put a pistol into his pocket daily, with out having a frequent feeling ot a desire to make of it. Mere defence is a Tain pretence ; the proper and really valuable defence of a man in society, is the defence of the law. It is not de fence, even to kill the man who km me ; but punishment taken into my own bands. ; And this punishment, which may sometimes be jua", is of ten visited unjustly by a man who assumes to be Judge and executioner in his own 'cause.1,' Hence we see trifling offence, or supposed offences, which are revenged by shooting. ' But beside the habitual deterioration of the moral sentiment or respect for life, which arise from -constant famil liarity with the Instruments used for destroying it; the proximity of lethal weapons naturally lends itself to the gratification of every excited passion. There is no time given for passion to subside or for reason to assume the ascendant, as battens, when the knife cr the pistol must be searched out.- ' ' r " ' " , At the moment when temper is most ungovern able, tho meanaef gratifying it are' moat conven iently At band. " Hence we see men with no ill will to each other commit murder in their cupa. Hence we find that these deadly encounter fre quently take place between old friends, who hare had some accidental dispute about subject too trifling to mvolre the life of a decent dog. But for the bandy weapon, a few hours would often see the two tucn excellent friends once" more, in. stead of which it too often happens' that the one is a corpse, snd the other wounded and in the bands of justice ' for a trial, which is, ho doubt, too often a mockery, but which must always be a distressing ordeal for the accused and bis family, independent of the result." ' ' - i LATER FROM CALIFORNIA. -The steamship Northern Light arrived "at New York on Sunday evening from San Juan, with 491 passenger and $000,491 on freight. - Every thing remains quiet at Saa Juan. , The inhabitants are rebuilding the town.. Among the passengers by the Northern Light are Judge Canfield of Ohio, Judge Blair of Wash ington, J. B. Booth and lady, the Batetnan family, M. Strakoscb, and Ole BuH, : . ; Our dates from California are up to September 16th. J The genei'al election was held on tho 6th instant For Congress there were three tickets in the field Broderick and anti-Broderick Dem ocrats, and Whigs. The returns from half a dozen counties are yet to be received, but enough is known to established the election of J. W. Denver and P. T. Herbert, anti-Broderick Democrats. The anti-Broderick ticket has so far 33,000 votes, the Whig ticket about 31,000, and the Broderick ticket 8,000. It is doubtful whether Beard, the Whig candidate for Clerk of the Supreme Court, or Leake, his anti-Broderick opponent, is elected. In the Legislature, so far as known, there are twenty-six Democratic to seven Whig Senators ; and forty-five Democrats to thirty-five Whigs in the Assembly. But it is very uncertain whether the Democrats will be able to unite on any can didate for the United States Senate. Iu San Francisco the Know Nothings carried every thing before them. They elected, as their own candidate for Mayor, 8. P; Webb, formerly Mayor of Salem, (Mass.) by a majority of 629 over his highest opponent. The new Common Council will be composed of twelve Whigs and four Dem ocrats. The news from the mines continues to be or a very encouraging description ; and the intericr papers talk as if the miners iu their different lo calities were satisfied with their average ; gains. In the Southern mines the season' is represented as one of the most favorable for river and bar digging that had ever been known. The annual migration across the plains contin ue to pour into the country. . Moderate numbers bad already arrived, who mentions many ethers on the way. It is not, however, -likely that the total number of immigrants by land will, be very great this year. " But the chief immigrants have been Chinese. Every ten days or so somewhere between five hundred and one thousand of these people arrive at San Francisco. The late clamor against the race has almost died away in 8an Francisco. . In the interior, however, it is still heard. Of the 40,000 Chinamen supposed to be in California, about 85,000 are said to in be in the condition vir tually of slaves, or peons, to their mere wealthy .countrymen. Their employers are said to be five great companies, organised to import laborers from China. Tbe people of the different compan ies are continually quarrelling among themselves, and in different parts of the, Etate have" recently had several pitched battles, in which some of the combatants were slain. The grounds of quarrel are not very well understood by "outside barbar ians." nor perhaps much better by the Chinese themselves. . , '. ' - HORRIBLE MURDER NEAR LEXINGTON.. ' We were informed yesterday evening, says the "Louisville Courier, of Wednesday week, "by pas sengers on the cars, from Lexington, of a tragedy that occurred in the county oft Fayette; on Satur day night, which almost .transcends belief, it is of so horrible a nature Mr. Frazer, a farmer of the county, had been absent with stock at New York for several months and on Saturday,- telegraphed bis family that he would reach home that evening. His neighbor and partner, Mr. Cattleman, awaited his arrival at the d-.-pot, and conveyed him to his residence. - Leaving the house,-Mr. C. was startled about an hour afterwards, by the report of a gun. " He im mediately went to Frazer's, and there discovered him dead, the bouse darkened, Mrs.- F. above stairs, Grigg, the overseer, b3ov, and a daughter, aged eleven, with the mother. They accounted for the death of the man by the accidental dis charge of a shot gun which he had in Lis hand preparing to shoot a rat. Suspicions were arous ed, and tbe overseer and Mrs. Frazer both arrest ed. The body of the deeeased was terribly bruis ed, a hole shot through his head, another through his body, bis throat very badly cut, and three ribs broken, effects not reasonably caused by accident. There appears to be" no doubt in the minds of those advised of the facts, as to the criminality of Mrs. Frazer and Grigg. Previous to this time, the neighbors bad suspected improper iutimacles between the two, and it is supposed that it was for the purpose of getting Fraser out of the way," so a to render marriage feasible, that the awful deed was accomplished. Jhere are various cir cumstance connected with the affair, wfclch go to criminate the suspected parties. " Duricg Monday and yesierdty thev were undergoing prelim'mary trials - 'S&'.V ' 1 :. THE DEACON AND THE II.. ' - A few months age, as Deacon Ingall I rnap acott, R. I., was travelling through tl. tern part of the State f New Yorkhe fell ia . 1 an Irishman who had lately arrived ia this e !ry, and who was in quest of a brother that c 3 on before him and settled in some of the " u)g in that vicinity. , ; y Pat was a strong, athletic man, a true Catholic, and had never seen the interior of a Protestant church. It wis a pleasant Sabbath morning that brother Jngalla met Pat, who inquired the toad to the nearest church. . : - Ingalla was a good and pious man. ne told Pat be was going to church himself, and invited his new-made acquaintance to keep him company thither, his place of destination being a mall Methodist meeting-house near by. There was a great revival there at the time, and one' of the deacon (who ty-the-way, was very small in sta ue) invited brother iBgalla to take a seat in bis pew. He accepted the invitation, and walked in followed by Pat, who looked in raba to find the altarr &. - After be was seated, he torned to bro ther I.V and in a whisper, which could be heard all around, inquired :" : " - : " Sure isn't this a hi ri tic church 1" . , " Hush," said Ingalls. : " If you speak a loud word they will put you out. ----- i " Divil a word will I speak,' at all, af an ns plied Pat. - ; -. -" - .. The meeting was opened with prayer by the pastor. Pat was eyeing him very closely when an old gentlemra who was standing In thepew di rectly In front of Pat shouted " glory.". ' L V ' v " Hist-s-t y clear devil,; rejoined Pat, with his load whisper, which was plainly heard by the min ister, " be dacent, and don't make a blackguard of yourself." , ' - '-'V The parson grew mora and more fervent in his devotions. Presently the deacon uttered an audi ble groan. - Hial a-t, ye blackguard, have ye no daeeocy at all at all 1" said Pat, at the same moment giv ing the deacon a punch iu the ribs, which caused him nearly to lose his ebuiilibrium. - The minister stopped, and extending his .baud in a supplicating manner, said : - . - v . ' Brethren, we cannot be disturbed in this way. Will some one put that man out T" . " Yes, your riwliice, shouted Pat, " V will r" and suiting tbe action to the word, he collared the deacon, and, to the utter horror and astonishment of the pastor, brother Ingalla and Ihe whole con gregation, he dragged bim through the isle, and with a tremendous kick he lauded him Ia the ves tibule of the church. ' ' From tke Boston. Ckronicte of Saturdrv. " The Cnchanted Horse of Stoaghtou Hall. A College Scrape. An occurrence at Stough ton nail, in Cambridge,- last Wednesday evening, should be related for tlie edification of those who may believe the students of old Harvard have for gotten the college scrapes of past times. ' About two o'clock the proctor of Stoughtoa Hall, who occupies a room on the third floor of the building, was aroused from his slumber by a strange noise as of severe blows given witb some heavy blud geon upon the floor near the door of his room; be started up in amazement and listened, but all was still. That day a convention of Spiritulist had beeu held in Boston, but this fact afforded no sat isfactory explanation of the " knot kings. " Soon they were heard again, and the proctor, whose duty it became to institute an investigation, pro ceeded to inquire into the cause. Students, of course, were snugly ensconsed in bed at that hour, no carpenter or blacksmiths were employed about the premises, and the cause was indeed a mystery. The good procter procured a light, and proceeded to prosecute the search. , On open ing tbe door, what was his amazement to see stan ding in the hall vkite horse ; the animal either very much Out of his place, or tbe protctor was out of his bead, and for moment, our friend seemed in doubt which theory to adopt, but at length he assumed the former. The horse was not very remarkable for his fine symmetry; on the contrary, even upon a hasty glance, the proctor was able to count the ribs of the animal and define with his eye every articulation and joint. ' The nag must have felt the effect of hard times, but there is no end to conjecture ; iu aims were kigli, ana uscievsuon baa evidently been very sudden. The proctor called in several hostlers, and a coa sulation was entered upon to devise means to put tbe horse out; horses will walk up stairs readily, nut tney are Invariably averse to a retregade movement, more especially if the aUurs are steep: Planks were obtaned and an incined plane soonpre pared; the horse was cast, and was allowed to slide from floor to floor till he finally reached the lower entrance about daylight, and waa led off by order of the proctor. , How the animal e ver attai ned to so great a height is a mystery which the proctor has not yet been able to satisfactorily account for . , OUTRAGE Br CATHOLICS. " A diabolical outrage has been perpetrated in Ireland... About 900 inhabitants of the town of Enniskillen and the adjoining neighborhood pro ceeded by railroad to Derry on the 15th, and had a grand Protestant and" Orange' celebration. As they were returning, the 1 train "came in contact with a large fragment of rock placed Upon the rails, near an embankment, throwing the train off thet rails, instantly killing the stroker, and wound ing numerous others, including Lord Enniskillen The deed is stated to have been done by the Catholics, and suspicion of . it . waa entertained beforehand, so that unusual .precautioiiflwere taken, and the train was going at a very slow rate at tbe time, otherwise the loss of life must have been frightful. .' " ''T V ' V - ABANDONED. " ' The editor of the Fredericksburg Recorder has abandoned his tri-weekly enterprise -"and has fallen back upon the semi-weekly plan. He say : We repeat that we abandon our enterprise witb so little unwillingness, but are not disposed to sacrifice interest to mere pride. We would con tinue it if in the future we saw any reasonable proijiect of remuneration ; but we see none. The "fastness" of the age has not yet reached us the field of operation is too narrow. In a densely populated city of enterprise and public spirit, a scheme may be at first unsuccessful and subse quently result in great gain; but not so herej a few weeks are full enoug 1 to test the fate of any enterprise of this sort in Fredericksburg in that period k reaches its maximum. , . - i N0T A "BUSINESS TRANSACTION. . ' ' The Savannah Republican say that during the height of the epidemic in that city an "order for five hundred loaves of. bread a day was sent by our Mayor to Macon as a business transaction r be not dreaming that ' the perverse obstinacy of the people of that place- would cause them' to reject all ' overtures of payment. 2 Yet o- It has been. We trust that the public opinion of the world will pas such judgment upon their conduct as it merits. "We can only say that Savannah will renumber them for it." ' ."

The New York liq uid mentions- the following novel mode of showing up pickpockets : -' - 5 Yesterday afternoon "the Chief of Police made a visit to the Agricultural Fare' soon "afterwards two notorious pickpockets were discovered in the fair exercising their nefarious operation ' They Were both taken into custody, and by order of the Chief put at once on exhibition. They were each provided with a large placard, attached with a stringvaround their neck, labeled "Pickpockets.' The rogues, were then walked around the fair tender an escort of policemen, in order that the people present might be gratified with the sight of li re pick popkets. This novel exhibitition caus ed considerable excitement, and hundred of peo ple followed after them.. . They were kept on ex hibition in that manner for several hours. We understand that the next light fingered gentleman caught at the fair will be provided with a cage, and tbna become one of the stock "elephants" 00 snowv - . . ; t v . r - ', . , FROM OREGON. y , . " The dates from Oregon are to llth September. The principal news is the massacre-of a -party; of emigrants by a band of Indians. "J" ' On the 25th of August, about daylight, as an emigrant train of four wagons was passing along some fifteen, miles on the east side of Fort Boise , a force of about sixty armed Indians attacked them. The men of the party were so appalled at the attack that although they, the men, were arm ed, they made but a feeble resistance, tyid. the whole of them, eight in number, were hct down; a boy was also shot down and left for dead. - Tbe Indians then seized the women, four in number, and some children, number not known; together with the wagons and stock, and hiade their retreat from the road. After they had departsdr:tae boy, who. was only wounded, came to himself and made his escape. John F; Noble, a man- well known in Oregon, was in a train behind, aud On coining ftp found the boy and;. hastened on to Ifurnasbn's camp, about fifteen miles this side of the f"Hi'Snd from there Mr. .Fruit.c.ime through to tlic'.Dalles as messenger, with "a request from the" Indian agent, 'Mr. Thompson for troops,". Major Hatlet started immediately with bis command-of about thirty men from the Dalles .to the scene of action. Nathan Olney, member elect from 'Wasco, was mustering a volunteer force to follow the regulars. A requisition was also made for troops from Van couver, and the company of artillery stationed there, numbering about seventy men,- were to go on the Belle the next day. Rumors are current at the Dalles that the attacking party are; the Blackfeot and Snake Indians 4 combined. - The names of those killed and captured are not known. - A MAN SHOT BY A WOMAN.; A few days ago the wife of"Mr. Heard, the Post master at Wkitield, in ibis county, shot a man by the name of White, wounding him dangerously in both arms. The facts, as communicated by our informant, remarks the Lauderdale- Republican,. of Sept. 19th," are as follows:' WlnficTd is situated near the line, between this county and Clerk, tho surrounding country being thinly settled. Mr, Heard was absent, leaving his family, which eoii- sit of his wife and a few small children, at home. During the following night," White came to the house and demanded admittance, .which was re fused by Mrs. Heard. He then attempted to ef fect an entrance by force ; Mrs Heard repeatedly ordered him away, threatening at the same time to shoot bim if be persisted. Whit continued his efforts and was about to effect, bis purpose, when as the last resource, seized her husband's gun and fired on bim which put an effectual stop to his further efforts. We understand that the whole neighborhood are unanimous in condeming White, and exonerating Mrs. Heard from all blame. SCENE AT A HOTEL. . A gentleman from the country, not very fami liar with the customs of the. city, stopped at. tbe Virginia Hotel to his dinne. . during a recent, visit to this city. Being so ignorant of "the wires," he knew not bow to get waited on as speedly as some others after he was served the first time, and there fore sat awkwardly waiting for a considerable space. At length bis patience became quite ex hausted at seeing others all about ,him 'served so much quicker, and he beckoned a waiter all he way around the tabic to him, from the Other end of the room ; and when be had drawn np. close to him and placed his ear in a listening posture, the gentleman in a loud and ocular whisper said to him,, "always make it a point to wait on strangurs first.' He evideutly -thought himself the ;On!y stranger present. The griu on the face of the a- mused waiter showed that he appreciated the ad vice. St. Louis Intelligencer -" "" -- - HUMAN NATURE.
