We arc almost daily in receipt of public

hopo they may be'continued for many, many
years from the same sources.
We observe, in the Carolinian, the annual

.-Robbery ai?d Arrest.?A robberywa*
committed on Thursday last at Ridgeville,
by James Hilyard, who' took -from' Mr.
..Jackson il60 in,note# and.440 Ifi^ifloney.
He was pursued as far as the 20-mile sta-'

care, and catne on to the city. A warrant ,

. . Desperate Afftay.
A most:excitingand Operate affray occurred
yesterday afternoon in Broad street,
which was well nigh terminating fatally. As
we have ascertained the facta from an tfye
witness* E. P. Hawses* and Augustus Cartledge,
were promenading the street?the former,
revolver in hand, defying the authorities
to flrrptt lll?ir Kni?Jo>^ii? o"<l
r-_ Wv.vw,viwfluu i iviuua i-uuuyci.
Officer Ford made tho attempt, but they
treated him with tho utmost indifference.?
In a few moments, however, Marshall Christian
arrived at tho wene, and dismounting
advanced toward Hawes. -When li. presented
hia pi.Ntol and threatened to shoot if
he approached nearur. Cartledge immediately
rushed upon and struck Christian,
when Christina, in a woll directed blow with
his stick, fulled him to the earth, almost
lifeless lie then advanced upon Dawes,
who again presented his pistol and threatened
to fire. Christian, nothing dautited, advanced
and drew lm own pistol, when
Ilawcs fired?followed instantly by a fire
irom unmtian?-nojtlicr ball taking effect.
The ball from II.'s pistol perforated tho side
of Christian's coat, near tno hip?Christian
then rushed upon him, and with his pistol
knocked him downr . wroated bis. revolver,
from him, alid arrested him, when both tlie

Mr. Buchanan's letter on the Nebraska
, " SilL
Some discussion having taken place upon
tho position of Mr. Buchanan on the
Kansas-Nebraska Bill, we aro permitted to
copy the following extract from a letter addressed
by Mr. Buchanan to Senator Slidell,
dated London, on tho 28th. of December
last, when there seemed to bo no difference
as to Mr. B's thorough identity with
tho Democratic party on this, as on all other
issues. It will be seen thai Mr. B. spcaka
of the Kansas- Nebraska bill with his usual
frankness and decision. W? am mnfirmJ
in our impression, by this letter, that no
man, no act of-men, and no newspaper, are
nt all warranted to speak nuthoritatively for
Mr. Buchanan upon this or upon any other
quefition. His own words ppuak for thorn*
scire*. .
ti,? 1.,#*? *r_
xnu uuci ui mr. iiuciinnnn was not, it
will be seen, intended for publication, but
the gentleman to whom it was addressed
has thought it necessary, after the editorial
article in the. Union of Wodneaday last, to
lay it before the .country : "The
question has been settled by Congres,
and this settlement should be inflexibly
maintained. The Missouri Compromise
is gone, and gone forever. But no assault
should bo made upon those Democrats
who maintained it, provided they are
now willing in good faith to maintain the
settlement as it exists. Such an understanding
is wise and just in.itself.
"It is well known how I labored in company
with Southern meu to have tins line
extended to .the Pacific. But it has departed.
The time for it has passed away,
and I verily believe that the best?nay, the
only-?mode now left of nuttine'down thn I
fanatical and reckless spirit of abolition in
the North, is to adhere to the existing settlement
without the slightebt thought or appearance
of wavering, aud without regarding
anystortn which may be,raised against
it." .j ' .

' Outrage op a Judge b NoW Or lean*.
. During the examination of a case connected
with the Inte contested election for
Sheriff in New- Orleans, on Wednesday
week, before Judgo Rubcrtson, of the District
Court, a man named Daunoy intruded
himself between the Judge's scat and the
Clerk's desk, and upon being ordered to
stand out of the way by the Judge, refused
to obey. He was accordingly forcibly expelled
from the Court by ohe of the deputy
Sheriffs. There was some difficulty in accomplishing
this measure, as Daunoy forcibly
resisted, but Judge Robertson cried out "remove
him, and if there is any resistance
made, kill him." The Judge then wrote
out Ills commitment for ten days for con
tempt of Court, and ordered, tho deputy to
oax-cuus 11. in me meantime, tlie friends of
Daunoy had assembled outside tlie Court,
and had determined to prevent the arrest.
Mr. Randeil Hunt, the eminent counsel.
^cnig mo uiieniumng siaie oi anairs, actvised
Judge Robertson to accept the apology
of Patinoy. Accordingly Dannoy was
called into Court and on disclaiming all
contempt was discharged.
The- next mo'rniijg .as Judge Robertson
waa-goiijg to Court, lie was raeV by Daunoy
on Touloune street. At first the conversation
assumed an amicable tone, but Dnunov
suddenly changed his .manner, and *aid,
"I want you to apologise for your conduct
to me yesterday." "Apologize!" replied
tho Judge, uyou have mistaken your man
if you suppose I, can apologize for performing
my duty."
Daunoy immediately pushed him off to
liavo him within reach of a very heavy loaded
cane, with which he struck him a tremendous
blow on the head, which was foll6wed
by others in quick succession. The Judge
tried t.o draw hu pistol, but one hnnd was
occupied in parrying the blows nnd he could
not succeed.
Two or three friends of Dnunoy then
jumped upon the Judge, catching bis arms
and choking him, while tho chief assailant
continued his Assault, The Judgo at last
succeeded in drawing his pistol, but it was
wrested from his hands at once. The heating
lnr.tcd for some time. One of the Sheriff's
deputies, who was fortunately passing
bv came up and rescued the Judge from'

Corn Speculators Bitten.?Since the
incoming of (be corn crop thisneasoit speculators
and dealers- have been largely engaged
in making purchases along the Ohio
and Wabash rivers. They commenced operations
at comparatively high figures, and
soon tho river banks were lined with huge
jmes 01 corn in sacK8 awaiting shipment;
but prices almost immediately declined,
and holders in a great measure ceased shipping,
as the prico in foreign markets would
not warrant the cost of transportation. A
steamer arrived at Louisville from Henderson
Inst week with one thousand sacks of corn
for distillers at Carrolhon. It is the fin?t
receipt of a purchase bv them of alvutt
92,000 bushels of corn. It was bought in
Indiana early in the season, and the price
paid varied from forty to forty-two cents
per bushel. Subsequently th<*y proffered
the farmers ten cents per bushel to take the
corn back and rescind their contracts, which
they of course refused. Other buyers en|
tered more largely into the trade, and very
many of them bought corn l>y the hundred
thousand bushels, or agreed to take the entire
standing crops of the farmers, anticipating
high prices. - Tho market everywhere,,
as fast ns corn betran to arrive, declined.
ami prices went down to" 25 cents, at which
:riites speculators are again buying largely.
The crop is a large one. Last season, owing
to the drought, it failed, and prices every
whereran up to 90 cents andtl p^r bushel;
hut from present indications the Louisville
Co.uner says there is'no likelihood that they
wii] exceed half those rides thisseasoq.

THE indefatigable District and Village
Clothing Man, by close observation mid
hard study, lias learned several new features in
the art of improving and adorning the Masculine
portion of the human family. He's been
clean to New York, took lessons under scientific
men, and has made himself so familiar
wim aii mo ucautic", uutics, liabilities, advantages
and responsibilities of the human weAtherooArding
department that just as soon a*
lie lays his eyes on n man, he knows what he
lacks?whether it is food or raiment He is
just the came to mankind that spring is to vegetation.

cotno in and take a few lossons?charges moderate
for single scholar?classes taken at reduoed
rates.
JI il it lood and raimont, ho tabes him in,
covers, weather-boards and floors him, and
then sends him over to his friend, IL 8. Kerr,
or down to Loniax <k Cobb's, where in a few
minutes, after the patient has realised the reviving,
healthful influence of the external application
they will commence the inside work
?ceiling, lathing, plastering and securing, and
then start him home. And it is no wonder, after
taking nomo of Lomnx A Cobb's or H, 8.
Kerr's in ard filling (which is substantial, no
liquid) then allowing Lyons to give them what's
culled tho siirface polish, that men's wives
don't know them when thoy go home;- the
little l>oys and girls run and hide, thinking
some city folks have come to their pa'a houses,
young ladies commence fixing up to entertain
their new beaux, and young men brush their
heads, look dignified and start to rrceivc the
nice looking stranger.
A few men of rather ordinary appearance,
who hare thrown themselves entirely into Lron#'
bands, know the advantages to be derived
from a suit of bis Clothes; it hatmarried them
into rich families, given them a standing far beyond
their expectations, and been the means of
