I It was late one night when a parfv, of;? which I was one. weary, cold, and fam- I v ishing. reached the place where we were J 1 directed to halt till the morrow. Almost 1 all the army hnd preceded us, and the i waysides wero strewed with ifs wrecks, 1 for men women, children, horses, and , "] bullocks had dropped down from sheer ex- I -I haustion, some to die. others, to find what 1 ' rest they might, in utter indifference ofjj the consequence* that were to follow, ofj which the diatrenniuj; would he captured by j-a f he enemv. Moreover the face of the rouu- v try bore mark* of the moral whirlwind i punned over it. A few rotta- | ft*! to re abil lhcr<-, with a Village *>r ! % hnrulet at remote intervals, hot one of o V which had escaped the fury of the marau- [ tier, and of which >everal were in ruins. I Well, then. we were at ourgrounJ about ^ two hours after dark. The snow was fa!. H ling fast arid the wind blew cold and keen o so that any kind of shelter was, in our ' ryes, invaluable and happy were we when i * we saw that there was a homestend at ! ^ hand, into which without waiting for any! orders from our superiors, we entered.? i * It was not in its external shell a ruin; ] * the walls stood upright and the roof had | v not vet been removed; hut such a scene j r of devastation arid misery as the interior* c nresented, the eves of civilized men have " seldom been shocked by beholding; not a j j shred or particle or furniture was left; j a the very door had been torn from its bin-1 < lies, and the smouldering ashes of a huge 1 ^ ~ O i fire pointed out the uses to which they had I been turned. There were two or three ij lamps burning, by the light of which we ! discovered an old man and woman seated on the ground, and a youth lying dead be- j tweeii them. Fie was still blteding from , j the forehead, through which a ball had j, named, and his parents, for so afterwards j t I understood them to be, were gazing!' upon hi n mi silent agony. The never j1 moved when wo rushed in; they did not 11 even seek to carry their dead out of the I 1 tun--?nrl ihpi woman at least, continued J < " "J ? - -; . to regard him with* stare that altered not. ; ( Tho old man, on the other hand, looked j j up: and the scowl, the fierco and angry ! t glance he cast round him, I shall not tor- j get to my dying day. Unfortunately.] several of our people had drunk just as I much liquor as to madden without abso Intelv stupyfving or rendering them harmless; and one of them, swearing at J the old man, made a demand for bread.? j 1 The Spaniard returned no answer, hut I J j pointed to the dead body. "You old I, exclaimed the drunken savage, "do you u think we ran eat that? Give us bread? ! i bread, or we'll burn the honse about your i1 cars!" As he said this he struck at the; ! old mar, w ith the butt of his mmkef, hut : : the blow missed the mark. It fell on the 'I ' cheek of the corpse with a crushing sound, which caused mv flesh to creep. With j a wild yell tho old man sprang to his feet He seemed to grasp in his bosom for something which either was not there or ho j had tho prudence not to produce; and,j rushing out of doors did not make his' appearance all that night. There was a presentiment of evil in mv mind, which I was sure would find its fulfilment. The strange and most disgraceful! scene ope- j rated upon us well. We spoke kindly to: the old woman, remover! the dead body to j one corner of the room, and spread a piece i of (tacking, which we found thereover him; t _ i 1? , _ [ The illness of Mr. Southard, the Pres. ident pro. tem. of the Senate, has pre. j vented him, for some time, from attend. ' ing in Ins place in the Senate. He* is 1 now at Fredericksburg, in Virginia, and in n very critical situation?so much so that his recovery is dcspaired of. It is j rumored, to clay, that he will resign his I place us President of the Senate to-mor- ' I row. Great excitement exists, in this city, in consequence of the attempted, and proba. j My successful, assassination of Petlrich, J the sculptor. The affair is enveloped in mvslery. Pcttrich is a man of blameless j life* of stern integrity, and perfectly in. | offensive; and, withal, so poor that a mouse could not get a crumb from him. ! Hi* family, which is a numerous one, is nfifiwmg hi Philadelphia. He has hern j disappointed, from time to time, in get. > ting work from the government or from :individuhls, nnd is in a condition of ex- ; treme poverty. This excludes the suppo- < tiofi that robbery was the object. As lie was entering bis studio, last night, about half past nine o'clock, lie was followed by , two men. He struck a light with a j match, was immediately seized bv his 1 arms, which were forced and held behind him, by one man, while another stabbed > him in several places. There were four , ""?i?rvrla LI to eriuj frvr lipin . niMIIIUSl *?t.T VI ll.r. ..vr brought several respectable citizens to him. The studio was immediate Iv op. ! posite the south wall of the President's f house, and not far from the Treasury ; office. Petfrich is still living. He can. j not tell who were the assailants, nor the motive of the assault. Some suppose that the motive must have heen professional rivalry. There is some work ? n statue of Washington, 1 believe,?to be ; executed for the Ne.v York Custom House, which Pwttrich would probably ; have obtained. Some suppose that this w as the cause t?f his murder. The feel- i ing on the subject is deep and universal L: ?t.? L?II jower Battalion 2hth B-?gi > en!

But we did not all master on \ what they called the pnr?<l*? ground when i ; the hour for getting under arms arrived, j The man who had acted so brutally was i found a yard or two from the cottage door, peirced with three wounds in the i breast, and quite dead; and though wo I rotild not tell whether ho had gone there of his own accord, or been lured Hbroad or first slain and then dragged out, there was not one nmong us who entertained the shadow of a douht as to the hand from ; which the blow came. Such isn specimen,' an extreme one, I believe, of the modo in ' w hich feelings exasperated by much sutler.j ing on both sides, relieved themselves hero ; and there between the Spaniard and the j Englishman. I believe that, in the in- | stance just refercd to, the youth had been ; killed by accident, if indeed, the term can ; be fairly used in reference to a shot, which, I ' though not fired with a design to take j i HWiiv life, was meant to facilitate the ! i plunder of the peasant's cottage ; for the j < Spaniards all locked their doors when! thev saw our people approaching; and; our men became so indignant at last that j they forced them open. Moreover, the , method of doing so, was to apply the) muzzle of a musket to the key hole, by j which means the lock was blown ofF as j soon as the musket was discharged ; and, , doubtless, the poor youth happened to be j 1 looking through the aper'ure when the ill- I J fated shot was fired. Still, the father not!' ' t unnaturally attributed his son's death to ! design; he, therefore regarded the En- j ghsh as his worst enemies, and Uto corn- . v plote state of pillage to which they re- a duced him may welt he pleaded as his ju excuse for doing so.

In color, size, bone, sinew and mu8_ i i cle, he greatly resembles bis grandsire, the i famous American Eclipse* admit ted on all j | hands to be one of the best horse*, if not the j ; very best, ever owned in tins country, who. ; ther native or imported.

I. fcpirn 01 me i wieo -in < j possession of fine health and betrays few indications of his arhanied age and long service, i There are very w instances of 6uch vigor at ' his age." I Carolina Ectipse is put at the very low price i of ?3 the single |pap. payab e at the timef. , ?12, the season, payable at the c'ose of the ; season ; and SI3 for insuring, payable when ; the mare is ascertained to be in foal, or when ! she is traded ; with 5(1 cents to the groom.? , j His form, strength, and blood eminen'ly claim | 1 for him the attention of persons who wish to ; raise horses "for all work,'"?for the saddle, i light draught, and farm or plantation use.

He was got by Festival. considered by i j Capt, Harru,.?r., an experienced breeder, train- . | er, and racer, who had him in ins stabJc6 a : season, "the best son of Eclipse." His dam? | was by (fptimus; and his grand dam was out j ; of a Bell-Air mare, got by old Sir Archie, the ; i best horseofhis day in America. FESTIV AL ' 1 * _ u_i; L:..

Ol'TI iYl US was by A/adisou ; lie by the old irn- ' ported Diotned the sire of Sir Arc hie. Oplimtis was out of A/elvina, the dam 01 5 stock horses ; she was by imported Knows, ley; her dam by imported Spread Eagle; her grand dam by Nimrod ; her g. g. dam by Wild-Air, her g. g. g. dam the noted mare Little Willis, the dam of Brilliant, Nimrod 1 and Herald Little Willis was by old Januo,* ! i and he by Col. Baylor's Shock. It wi'i be seen from this pedigree that most of the very best crosses of which this country can boast, meet in Car Jiua Eclipse. I j Although mere racers, are not tne horses , } for the farmer, yet it is admitted by all that i ' racing is a fair trial of the strength, bottom I j and constitution of a librae. It is therefore j J stated that Festival, the sire of Carolina j ' Eclipse, though only a short time on the turf, j distinguished himself in these resrectsat alii i j distances from two to four mile heats. In his j . first race at Nottoway Va. in the spr ng of 1832. two mile heats, he distanced hi? compe. titer the second heat. In the fall ot ihe same . year, at Milledgville, Ga. three mile heats, lie easily won the Jockey Club purse, in two I heats. The same season, at Lexington, Ga. I | in a race for the Club purse, three nr.le heats, ' while leading his competitors his rider suf. j fered him to run too near the rim of the inside I l track, against which he stumbled and fell, ; causing h>m to lose the race. The same week J ' at the same place he beat all his riva s in 3 ' j 'mile heats, the best 3 in 3. The next spring, j at Lawrenceville, Va, he ran four mile heats, ' j wi?li Ironette, Anvil, Row-Galley, and Waller > ! Cook. Although he was in bad condition, ' having not fully recovered from the eftlcts of distemper, and owing to his rider being sick, he was obliged to carry 5 lb. over weight, he lost ilie first heat only by the neck, and the . second by only a fcvv feet, Ironette leading j , him ; Row.Galley and Walter distanced, and j Anvil (afterwards sold for Jjjiif'.lW,) barely | ! saving Ins distance. At New Market, Va, t j the next season, he started with eleven other i i linrj<<c anrl In/1 thnni nil tin* Hr.cl Jmat. Bill . ; his feet being tender from a rer? lit founder, lie 'was then withdrawn.
