CoswquMaa Tbe papers ?ome weeks since chronicled ih? circumstances of the elopement of a roan tamed May with the wife of his neighbor, dr. MeKce, oear Weston, Missouri; the lubsequent divorce of all the partita; the >uit in court brought by Mr. McKee against day, and the recovery of $20,000 flhmages, til that he was worth, which tbe plaintiff immediately made over to tbe wife of tbe letiucer of iiis own, for the support of herself and children. TheJefferaonian.of West3u, gives the Jinalt of the matter as follows: H On Saturday last May returned to this county, with a view of running off bis negroes, it was thought; and when his presence was known the people assembled in large numbers, and passed a resolution that May should be notified to leave tbe neighborhood ir. thirty minutes after he received the notice. The people then started out to scour the neeghborhood, and find May. Mr. F. M. Bell, with a man by the name of Barnes finally struck his trail about two miles frotn May's house, and chased liim from 10 o'clock in the evening until three o'clock in the morning. After a search of four hours the tuosb of the company gave up the hunt, but Bell and Barnes stuck to their work. Finally these two energetic men came in sight of May, who was well mounted on a line, active young horso ; but so were his pursuars, who gave chase, under whip and spur, over a hard road, and after a mile or two running, the pursuers, finding the bottom and speed of thoir horses about equal, and Jemoii8trating that they could not get nearer than tfoy were to the well mounted May, liailed him three times to stop and surren tier, which he refuted to do. Bell and Barnes then opened n fire upon May with Colt's revolvers, tiring above him, which May returned gallantly. Finding that he showed fight. Bell and Barnes lowered their shots, and two balls having passed through May's hat, he bawled out at the top of his voice that he would surrender, which lie did. Ilis horse was soon taken possession of by the Marshal, who will sell it under the execution which has been leri?] upon bis fine estate and personal prop erty in favor of McKee. An outraged community gave the destroyer of domestic happiness his life, turned him loose upou the cold world, packing off hi* saddle as the last vestige of a fine fortune, that has now passed from his possession foriver." Correspondence of the Baltimore Son. Washington. March 23. Mr. Douglas addressed the Senate for lireo hours last night in opposition to the Kansas bill. The chamber and galleries' were densetv tlirotiired?the ladies liavimr ! _ J -Q ?? o possession of both. Mr. Green commenced his closing remarks his morning, and is presenting an able view >f the whole question, and replying to all he chief arguments which have been urged igainst the bill. After his speech, the question will be aken upon the amendment* which have teen introduced. The first will be the sub titute oll'eied by Mr. Green for the report <1 till, including in it Minnesota. Next will ome Mr. Pugh's amendment, Mr. Clark's, itid probably several others. There is little piospect of a final vote tolav. There wilt necessarily be some discus ion of the amendments. Mr. Green made a strong point in his peech upon the legality of the convention, nd showed that it represented the people! I Kansas, though not all the swamps and ill-sides. Now that Mr. Calhoun has given to the ee Stuto party the control of the State overimient of Kansas, it is not probable int they will object to the passage of the dmissioD bill. Lane and Itobinson will be tueh disappointed if it do not pass. The pposiiion to the admission of Kansas with he Lecompton Constitution is to be found hiefly in Congress, and in a powciful coin mation, in that body, or parties otherwise iscordant. The American party in both Houses is pposed to the Minnesota bill. By coupug the two bills, both will be lost in the louse. Therefore it is quite certain that lie fiiends of the Kansas admission bill will bandon the plan of uniting the two measures. I {either will the l'ugh amendment be ndop ed. But some other amendment, not imounting to an interference in tho contruction of a Slate Constitution, and, in act, meaning little or nothing, may be adoped. 1'. S. I have just learned that the Demo ratio Senators, in caucus, this morning doermined not to connect Minnesota with Cansas, as it would hazard the bill in the louse combining against it the whole force f the American party in that body. Who km.licd Cock Kodin 1?The Washngton Union asks this pregnant question in efcrence to the " little giant " of yore.

We would especially direct attention to the card of Mr. W. 11 IIovkt, proprietor of u The Ladies' Store." This establishment has recently been neatly fitted up, and presents new and beautiful attractions. Mr. IIovey is at present ou a trip to New York, to lay in his spring and summer goods. Ladies, look out for something handsome in the courso of a very few weeks. Mrs. Watts <fc Miss Gohdon have returned from New York with a large and varied assortment of Ladies' Honnets, and dress goods. Read their advertisement in to-day's paper, and call at their establishment, opposite the Mansion Ilouse. The Admission of Kansas. The bill for the admission of Kansas into the Union, passed the Senate on Tuesday, 23d ult., by a vote of 33 to 25. We give in another column the b'll as it passed with the vote. It now remains to be di-posed of j by the House. The Hra?Atn^/on Union says : "that Mr. Stephens, of Ga., announced thnt he should move on Thursday next (to-day) ' at one o'clock to take up froin the Speaker's table the bill from the Senate to admit Kansas into the Union. It was generally assented to by both sides of the House that action on the bill should lw? ftaf.orrA.1 until that day. It was also stated by Mr. Stephens that he should then demand the previous question. Thus the matter will be brought to a speedy vote.'" Religious Revival. For more than a week past a very interesting revival has been going on at the Methodist Church in this place. A number of persons have professed their conversion, and been added to the church. The meetings have been largely attended, and a deep religious feeling seems to pervade throughout our town. We sincerely trust the good work may go on, and let us hope that what has already been done, may only be the be- t gining of that good season which our minis- , ters have so long and earnestly prayed for ?a revival of religion in our midst, and the awukening of sinners. Prayer meetings are conducted iu the church every afternoon, at 6 o'clock, which are joined in by christians of different denominations. The spirit of revival seems to ho general throughout the whole country. North and South. The papers of the different cities arc teeming with the glad tidings. Surely the Lord is visiting our land, and pouring upon His people refreshing showers of grace and mercy. The Juvenile Thespian Corps. This interesting little corps gave tlieir second entertainment on Friday evening last, at their school room, to a well-filled bouse of spectators. The two pieces for the evening?" The Capture of the Conspirator*, or the Heroine of New burgh," and 44 Robin Rough head"?were each well represented, and were played with credit to both the young peiformers and their preceptor. Tho corps i? made up onlirely of pupils from Mr. I'ikuck*8 school, we believe, and is under tbo management of Mr Cno*. *he gymnast of the school. It is conducted separate from the other studies, and no doubt has a good effect?improving tho merits! faculties sad keeping the daily exercises from becoming monotonous. They expect to give an other entertainment beforo long. Tbe brass band filled up tbe intervale with good music. - Baterrille Factory. We are gratified to perceive from a catalogue of the J 9th Annual Fair of the American Institute held at the Crystal Palace, N.

Their articles must find a ready sale, both at home and abroad. We are pleased to see the industrial pursuits of our District so flourishing. It speaks well for the growing enterprise of our people.

The Pnth of Safety In the present gloomy posture of national affairs ?with fights and robbery in Kansas, fights and corruption in Congress, and deser. tion on the part of hitherto strong pretended Northern friends, every courageous and firm principled Southern man is anxiously seeking the most effective inesns of defence, and inquiring for the path of safety. Upon this point, our mind has long since been made up, and without reiterating our views, we are content to present ths following patriotic extract from a letter of Hon. M.J. Crawford, Ga.. to the Colutnbus Times and Sentinel: " Senator Seward, the most sagacious of the Black Republicans, understands better than all bis clan the manner of our destruc lion. He says that twelve months will give them 19 States to our 15, and tio man understands the future unless he sees the power in their hands. Our only safety lies in demanding the full measure of our rights, and a demand means *1.1 t . ! . I , # ?. T/ nothing unless we inienu to enforce it. if Khh?as is rejected it will be because she has slavery in her Constitution and nothing else; if, therefore, the voice of our old Commonwealth is to be disregarded and her 4th Ilea* ulution violated, my first allegiance is due to her. and wherever her flag may wave I will follow it, and wherever her rights or her honor rany demand my poor services I shall ever be found ready to render them. All can and may yet go well. States should he nd in it ted without reference to slavery, and that principle being settled. Southern safety and Southern honor will he preserved, and our people may, and no doubt will, when the necessity arises, extend our borders and restore our equilibrium in the American Senate. A majority of the Northern Democrats still stand tirin, and 1 hope soon to see Kansas ride proudly into the Union with her tackle trimmed and a pro slavery Constitu lion floating at her mast head. Yours, ?tc. MARTIN J. CRAWFORD." Tits South Carolina Collkok.?We regret to slate that, on yesterday, the Faculty found it necessary to suspend ninety seven students of the South Carolina College until the first of October next, and five un til the first of May. We understand the ostensible cause of the ditttculty was tbe re fusel of the Faculty to allow ? suspension of College exercise*, on Thanksgiving day under municipal recommendation. Upon tlie professors going to Chapel and recitation, on Thursday rooming, the benches were found tarred, whereupon the order was given by the professors to tbe classes to attend at their private office* to recite. The Junior and Freshman Classes, with few exceptions, obeyed the order?the Seniors and Sophomores mostly declined doing so.? When called before the Faculty, with much unanimity they declined responding to questions. The act of discipline which followed was necessary to uphold the essential authority of the government, in which the Faculty was unanimous. [South Carolinian.

Mr. Kubtman is a very enterprising, energetic and public-apir ited gentleman, and by unanimous convent of our citizen*, deserves to be successful. As a private individual, be has done more for tbe public than all the appropriations of the Stale for geological investigations ever have accomplished.

Of the 11 mount to be giveo. by South Caiolina, the ibare of Greenville District, by a vote of its. own citizens, at a psblic meeting called t? consider this matter, was put down at twenty-five thousand dollars. A few citizens hare already subscribed sixteen thousand joilars of this amount, and to the rest of the , District is left the balance?nine thousand Jollan.. This must be made up amongst us, snd at once. The canvass of the State in ' general, thus far made, proves that it will require every dollar of what can he else where raised to make up the balance of the one hundred thousand dollars, ami unless we ire willing to see the enterprise fail, our cit zens must make up the amount reasonably regarded as their snare.
