":'!m BoatTOafoliitia Party onthehr way to! KasMua The steatuor Ettropa, which reached her wharf op Friday afternoon last from the Ohio river, landed upon our shores twenty young men, and all bailing from the city of Charleston, South Carolina, and all bound for Kansas. Arrived in our city they registered their names at the Washington House, on Fourth strcot, as follows: Brewster, Deaerville,Green, Yates, White, Holmes, Swift, Griorson, Ingers, Kemtne, Calhoun, Cross, ' Court?-?y. Ilarby, O. H. J. Alexander, B. Alexander, Kelly, Jenkins and Albright? Charleston, S. <5. The object,of this emigration we cannot fully gather, as the party pretends to bo composed entirely of engineers and surveyors. However, m conversation with a passenger who also came up the river by the Europa, we learn that some of tho Carolinians had declared their intentiou to be, "to seo Kansas through." Our friend, the passenger, also informed us of a very arousing circumstance that took place on the trip up, in which the young southerners met with a decided failure. As tli*) Europa neared the Ilig Eddy, a well known point on the Mississippi, betweon this place and Cairo, a large, fine doc was ob served at tho edge of tho water, which had come down the steep bank to driuk but could not get back again. Hero was a sight, and here a chance for tho marksmanship of tho young bloods. Tho Captain, in compliance with tho general wish of the passengers, ran the boat within a few yards of the shore, and soon the Carolinians had out their patent rifles, and opened a murderous fire upon the poor frightened deer. About fifty shots were fired and yet the animal did not fall. At length the doe, after several times attempting to scale the bank, leaped into the river and endeavored to reach the opposite shore. The yawl was immediately manued, and one or two of the Carolinians jumped aboard with their rilles. The deer was headed and driven hack. While returning, one of those in pursuit stood up in the 5awl and drew his rifle for a shot. Up and own bobbcnl the boat, arid wabble, wabble, went the gun. I'.ang! Never touched! The boat was rowed alongside tho grinning animal, when ho raised tho butt of his gun, determined to despatch tho enemy after the manner of the Americans whose amunition gave out on Hunker 11 ill. Whack! went the rifle into the water, nud the deer reached the shore. A party now lauded on the bank and pro > .i.~ -i ? t WWWl IV QUI IUIIUU II1U UllUU UUU'j UlIW J5IIU again took water. \gaiu the boat was man tied, but this time by some of the boat's crew. It is hardly necessary to add that in a few minutes the deer was knocked in the head and taken on bonrd. She proved to be a large Gne doe, and on being skinned, was seen to have but one wound from the shower of bullets discharged at her, and that wound in the tiauk. The animal was duly served up aud eaten by the passengeis with many pledges to the southerners for "better luck next time.*' This party, we are informed, will leave our city to-day for Kansas. The main part}' will be along in a few weeks. The advanced guard will we presume, proceed to engineer and lav off the whole of the terrilnrv ar?rl then when joined by the main body pioceed to settle down anil be veiy quiet. Tn addition to the above, wo learn that a body of Tennesscans, rn route for Kansas, arrived in our city yesterday, by the Sallic West, from the Cumberland river. About fifty of tho party, having rifles in their possession, and also about twenty or twenty-five negroes, t?*>k passage immediately on the Martha Jew t ti, a Miaseuii liver boat, and will leave this port to day. This emigration from the .South i< the first wo have observed ; and, while from the mili-i tary character of the outfit of tl.e Carolinians I and Tennesson 11s, we are inclined to the bo j lief that their intentions arc more warlike . than pacific, as squatters should not be, yet wo hail tho ntovo as an indication of a bettor spirit in the South?a spirit to compete with i tne North for the possession of Kansas, in n fair and legitimate way. ?

A Bad Settee latiov.?The city of Frank* fort (Ky.) recently engaged in a very curi ous speculation.

Every body lived well. But pay-day came : notes fell due, and went to a protest. Suits were instituted for thoir collection, and the authorities of the town, to avoid payment and to secure local creditors, made an alignment of all the Corporation property, including the hotel, gas works, and water works, fo secure A.

In passing by tlic Palmetto House thi* morning, I noticed quite ?n assemblage of lite village beauties. I learned that llies< , fair creatures were decorating the spaciou* 1 hall preparatory to holding a fair this evening. A specimen of the fair, such as I saw, certainly will not fail of attracting crowds, and will not fail also of making a decided impression on the hearts of all who are 1101 insensible to the charms of beauty.

Whilst speaking of the Elephant, I would hero take occasion to say that all those who visited, tho Circus at litis place expressed general dissatisfaction and spoke of it is a humbug and falling far short of tha pictures.
