Prize Money and the Echo.
Tho statements with which wo have hith* '
crto met in reference to the disposition of
tho slaver " Kcho," and the amount of prize
money accruing to those who were directly
instrumental in her capture, nppotr to be
founded upon an entire misnppre'.'.uision of
tho case. Deriving our information from
the most authentic source. wo i?mv ??? .
- ; ? J t
hnp?, be able to state tho real course which
will be taken iti the matter.
The United States marshal for South
Carolina i?avc Lieut. Ma Hit a receipt for
'{00 Africans, for which number ?25 per
head, amounting in all to $7,000, will be t
awarded ns prize money to the tl.ig oflicer !
of the home squadron and tho officers and
crew of the 1> Ipliin. This sum will be
distributed ns follows : the flap; officer re
coivcs imc-twcnticth, and the balance is
distributed to tlio other olficers and tlio
crow of the Dolphin, according to runic and
rate. It is doubted, however, whether the
flag officer (Commodore MclntoaU) is entitled
to one twentieth, as ho was absent, on
leave, from the station at the time <}f the
capture. This question will doubtless bo
determined by the Attorney General.
After the proscribed legal forms have
been gone through with, and tho Echo has
been libeled, she will bo sold at public auction.
JIalf of the proceeds will be taken
by the Government, according to a special
provision of law, nnd devoted to tho naval |
pension fund. The other half will be di- j
vided among tho officers and crow of the j
j'oipnin, according to tho name rule by
which tlii' per capita prize money is u I
tributed. Eighteen of tho Africans died I
after their capture by Lieut. Maflit. For j
those tho per capita of S25 will not be paid j
but only for those who wore delivered alive j
into tho hands of tho United States marshal.?

On tSaturda) afternoon, the 2d instaut,
(Jen. Scott arrived in this city, from his
ruiumcr sojourn at West Point, much im
juuvL-u in uppcaranae ana rjuito recovered
from his rcoont accident. There was a
commotion in tho crowd, as usual, that were
awaiting the arrival of tho steamer, on its
being known that tho General was on board.
Kvon tho hackmon forgot to persecute
their victims, in their eagerness to get a
night of the (Jenoral, whoso Acquaintance

by the officers of tho Scott Life Guard, has

Romantic M.yhuiauk.?A romantic
marriage came oft at Beaufort, North Carolina,
on Wednesday evening. A coasting
steamboat put into tlint port, and tho Captain
being tuken sick, took rooms at one of
the hotels. The landlord, it seems, had |
an interesting daughter, who, from sympathy,

Fearful Riot. *
A terrible riot took place lost night in
tlio Ijgcr bier saloon or gardens of 1). Ottkos, ]
corner of 3d avonuc and 78tli street. It ]
appears that lbrty or fifty Italians were cn- 1
joying themselves in their accustomcd way 1
between 10 and 11 o'clock, in tlio saloon,
when a number of Irishmen were attracted '
to the spot by the music, and on entering '
the gardens, one of them, named Michael
nourKc, commenced uanolug. I
Tho Italians were not offended at tho ]
proceeding, and the baud continued to play. '
After dancing tunea, Yankee Doodle, llail
Columbia and other national air* were giv- !
en, and llourke continued to d.mce, until
he maliciously, (as is alleged) ran against '
an Italian woman. This instantly offended
tho Italians, sevoral of whom left their
seats, and ran at llourke to ejeet him.?
llourke was pushed out very violently, when
his companions outside rushed into the gardens
and made a deeperato assault on the
Italians.
'J'lus was the signal for a general fight, '
ancl a bloody scone followed. The Irish |
had bludgeons and the Italians had knives, |
pistols and other deadly weapons. The
lighting was of tho fiercest character. In
j a few minutes Michael Cnlliguu was stnbi
bed in the inner part of tho thigh, the
i knife severed the main artery, and he bled
j to death on the spot.
Kdward Hums was stabbed in the back,
I and is not expected to recover.

and clubs, and headed by a white man, who
