WALKER, Editor. Thursday, June 3, 1858. Slave Excitement in Sandusky City. A Kentucky shatv'of -Cincfonatij yesterday pj'orning made a descent upon a colored wafter at the SV Lawrence Hotel, Sandusky, and captured him while in bed, and took him to the depot of the Little Miami Bailroad, preparatory to leaving for the South. At the depot a vast crowd of citizens collected and rescued the darkey, who took his flight to parts un- knownl In the nielee the Marshal was knocked down and otherwise severely handled.

He fired a pistol at the crowd, and the ball passed through a man's hat, for which act he was arrested and gave bail for trial. John M. MM is his bpnds-man. Milan Free Press. Seizure of a Vessel tor Having a Fugitive Slave on Board.

MISS ANNA VAIJL, ABOUT leaving the friendly shores of this, her native country, for Europe, feels anxious to visit once moie some of those cities in which she has been received with so much kindness, taking in her way many musical places where ehe has not yet bad the honor to appear; and has much pleasure to announce to the MUSICAL AMATEURS OF NASHVILLE, That for this occasion she will be assisted by the following eminent Artists: MOttENHAUER, The great Violinist, who created quite a sensation in Europe and this country. N. B. Mons. Julien, announcing the brothers Mollen-hauer, says on his programme: "Their Du-rtts have astonished the dUetanti of musical Europe, by their surprising unity of soul and expression accorded by these giited Artists to their performances.

The brothers MoHenhauer are as highly celebrated for their compositions, as their executive abilities; their Quartettes and Musica di Comora having given them as much renown among composers and artists as their playing has achieved with the public."

Whig is pertinent reading, and a good reply to the loud calls of Democratic organs for every body to join their, organization in the South democratic loqic a united south." i The Democratic presses and politicians at the South indulge in a very strange and mysterious kind of logic in the appeals they are continually making to Southern Whigs and Americans to with the Democratic party.

They insist upon the necessity of a perfect union, in the same political organization, of all Southern men for the purpose, as they argue, of more effectually resisting Northern aggressions, and defending the rights and interests of the South. They deplore the absence of this perfect union at the South, and rail against all those in the Southern States, who will not think and reason like themselves. Indeed, they go much further, and accuse Southein Whigs and Americans of infidelity to the South, because these latter will not become the apologists of a faithless and treach-, erous AdministratioL, and admit that the Democratic party is the only party in the country both willing and able to uphold the institutions and vindicate the honor of the South. They contend also, that the perpetuation of the Union is dependeut entirely upon the continued ascendency of the Democratic party. It were needless to say that the Opposition repudiate all such ridiculous assumptions on the part of the Democracy, and triumphantly point to the palpable historical fact that all the dangers to which either the Union or Southern institutions have ever been exposed have been the legitimate result of Democratic quackery and hypocrisy.

But as the Raleigh Register observes, we are utterly at a joss to conceive "how an United South against an united North is going to save the couw try and perpetuate the Union." We may remark that, so far as the defense of Southern rights and institutions are concerned, whenever they be threatened with Northern aggression, there is already a united sentiment and purpose at the South, and there has always been. Men of all parties and of all conditions in life, with perhaps rare individual exceptions, are all agreed as to the necessity of defending the South, its rights, its interests, and its honor, and al! are equally ready and eager to enlist in such defense, whenever occasion may demand. There is, then, no difference of opinion among Southern men in reference to the main question in which all are -alike interested, notwithstanding it is the constant effort of the Democratic papers and politicians to create the impression, that all who do not unite with the Democracy are the disguised enemies of the South and require watching. And this miserable calumny, too, is propagated with a marvellous zeal and assiduity, and all for the paltry purpose of promoting the vile ends of party. But, the people of the South being already united in defence of their property and honor, as indeed they have always been, we perceive neither the wisdom nor the patriotism of the exhortation which the Democracy are perpetually making to Southern Whigs and Americans to unite with them to join in the same political organization for the alleged purpose of preserving the Union and affording adequate protection to the South.

This scheme of banding together tl whole South in the same'party, under the same name, and for the objects avowed, originates in a mere sectional sentiment, with a view to the accomplishment of a merely sectional purpose. Besides, it is wholly impracticable, and can never promote the ends which its advocates say it is designed to achieve. Look at matter in a common sense Suppose the Whigs and Americans of the South should give heed to the admonitions and appeals of the Democracy, and, abandoning the separate and distinct ground they now stand upon, should unite with the Democratic party, and thus array the whole people of the South under a common political designation, with the avowed object of protecting the South against threatened aggression from the North, by presenting a compact and undivided front. What would or could be accomplished by any such party, in the way of preserving the Union or protecting the South On the contrary, would not the organization and consolidation of such a party inevitably lead to the organization and consolidation at the North of a purely Northern party And with only a Southern and a Northern party occupying the field of American politics, how long, think you, would the Union last, which it is one of the professed objects of the formation of a purely Southern party to secure? And in what by means of such an organization at the South, can any one conceive it possible for Southern rights and interests to be protected Is-not the South already vastly inferior to the North in political power And is not the admission of new States continually augmenting the political power of the North, while the stream of emigration to the West is continually diminishing. that of the' South These facts stand out in bold relief, and cannot be denied by any one.

How, then, with an overwhelming Northern majority in both branches of Congress, and with the North having the undoubted power of electing a Northern President, can the South hope to protect itself against Northern aggression by the union of all Southern men into the same party, if the North chooses to exercise the power it confessedly has, and as it certainly would do in the event of the formation of a purely Southern party, such as the Democracy are so lustily clamoring for? A united Southern party would clearly necessitate the organization of a united Northern party, and, under such circumstances, what hope could the weaker party, which would be the Southein, entertain of restraining and holding in check the stronger party, which would be the Northern It is obvious that, with the existence of two such parties, all others being disbanded and absorbed by these two, there would be no earthly possibility of the South attaining the ends contemplated by the Democracy in their suggestion for a union of all Southern men in the same party, and under the sam? party designation. The idea is not.only a chimerical, but a mischievious and dangerous one, and we ace only surprised that any one should lend it the slightest countenance, who wishes well to the Union, and to the South in the Union. So long as we remain in the Union, it is 1 impolitic and absurd to favor the formation of any such party as that suggested by Southern Democrats a party embracing every'Southern voter, rallying under the same party name. In a word, the South cannot hope for protection in the Union, if she adopts a scheme which will inevitably lead to a union of the whole North against her and such would be the effect of Southern Whigs and Ameri -cans unitiDg in a body with the Southern Democracy. In conclusion, so long as we continue in the Union, the South must base its hopes of protection upon national parties upon parties embracing both Northern and Southern men and not upon one such party only, but upon two, and two such will leave no room tor the existence of third or sectional parties.

It is obvious that a single national party cannot long exist in country; and hence both policy and duty dictate to Southern men the propriety of favoring aud actively aiding a re-construction of parties at the present time, so as to put a.i end to all sectional organizations, and build upon their ruins two great national parties, the ascendency of either of which would create no alarm and excite no discontent in any portion of our widely extended and continually expanding confederacy. The following, perhaps, may account for the recent eagerness of the British cruisers to make capture of the slavers Capture op a Rich Slaves. A letter from an officer on board the gunboat Jasper, Lieutenant and Commander H. Pym, says "We have captured and brought in, I may safely say, the largest and richest prize ever captured in the slave trade. is a full rigged and fast sailing ship of 750 tons burden, with a full slave equipment, and provisions for sustenance.

She also had on board specie in gold to the amount of 2260 ounces, Spanish and Mexican, or about 8500 sterling. Her name and nation unknown. We captured her on the north side of Matanzas, on the 22d'of March, between 9 and 10 a. she having sailed from Havana on the previous nighty to purchase and bring over slaves for the Island of Cuba. We had rather an exciting chase for about four and a half hours.

At 7 a.m., the Styx (6, paddle, Commander Tessey) hove in sight and joined in the chase, but kept astern of us till the prize was taken. She, however, stood on till we were within a mile of her, when she lowered her royals, but did not heave to until two more shots were thrown. We boarded and examined her. She had no papers. Slave coppers were lying on the main deck, and their furnaces in a case in the square of the main hatchway, marked "Marseilles," to which place they pretended to be going.

We also found slave tins and spare plank for slave deck, marked, fitted and numbered, but not in its place. 350 and K0O tons of water in-them, an immense quantity of rice, farina, coffee, dried salt fish, 18 puncheons of rum, and other necessaries. The Styx shares, but the Jasper will share in the proceeds of a prize taken the previous day by the Styx." English Paper. Commodore Paulding haB had interviews with the President and Cabinet, during which he stated that he had supposed, in arresting Walker, that he was carrying out their wishes to the letter. He first doubted this after the filibusters were safely on board his ship, when Walker told him that two members of the Cabinet were privy to his scheme, and bad signified their approval of it, and one of these Ministers was no other than the Premier himself.

Gen. Cass replied to this that he thought he Bhould be able to prove an alibi. The other Cabinet officer implicated, as rumor has it, is Thompson. The Commodore's reception was courteous but not cordial. THE undersigned begs leave to inform the citizens of NaBhyille and surround-i ing country that he can be found at the Music Store of A.

We aie pained to be called upon to announce the death of Wilkins Tannehill, which event occurred at the residence of his son-in-law, Wh. T. Berry, near this city, at one o'clock yesterday. Mr. Tannehill was well known throughout the Slate as a journalist and literary writer.

For several years he has been suffering from blindness, and, of late, from slight mental affliction. He was aged seventy-one years. We content ourself with the bare announcement of this event this morning, hoping hereafter to be able to present a notice more worthy of the talents, and high position which the deceased has occupied in the literary and political history of the State and country. BKITISH AGGRESSIONS. We publish in another column the report of the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations in regard to the recent outrages committed by British cruisers upon American vessels.

This report is an exceedingly important paper. Upon the point of resistance to the pretensions of the British to visit and search American vessels it is emphatic and unequivocal. The committee make no recommendations, but append to their report a series of resolutions reaffirming the principle that visitation or molestation of American ships is an infraction of the sovereignty Tf the United States that the recent aggressions demand such an unequivocal explanation from Great Britain as shall prevent their occurrence forever in the future that the committee approves the action, of the President, and are prepared to recommend such future legislation as circumstances may require. NEW BOOKS. Lilt Whiti: A Romance.

By. Edward Goodwin-Fhiladalphia: J. B. Lippbcott Co. 1858.

We are indebted to the author of this interesting book, who is by the way a Southern man, and a resident of Leighton, for an elegantly bound copy. "Lily White' is a romance in every way creditable to the author, both in style and matter, and we welcome him to the arena of fiction writers with sectional pride, hoping that this may not only prove but the first of a series of productions from his talented pen, but that it may be but the commencement of the development and practical application of that abundance of Southern literary talent and writing ability which has so long remained dormant for the want of stimulus and emulation. We recommend "Lily White" to our readers not only as a Southern production involving a strong and true defence of Southern institutions but as a romance intrinsically of the first order.

Smith, College street. Jrom the Sew York Herald, 29(A vtt. IMPORTANT REPORT OF THE SENATE COMMITTEE ON FOREIGN AFFAIRS. In the Senate yesterday, Mr. Mason, chairman of the Committee on Foreign Relations, to whom was referred the resolution inquiring whether additional legislation is necessary to place certain power in the hands of the Executive, submitted a repprt, of which the substance is that the official statements show a succession of acts of aggression by the British cruisers in the Gulf of Mexico, so marked and extraordinary as to have awakened the indignation of the country.

Vessels under our flag, pursuing lawful commerce, have been fired into, stopped and examined as to cargo, destination, crew, No less than fifteen American shipB in the harbor of Sagua la Grande, and Bix on the high seas, are officially reported as having had to submit to the aggressions of British cruisers, and each additional arrival brings fresh accounts of aggressions by the same Power on our flag. It has hitherto happened in isolated cases where similar aggressions have occurred through misconception that the United States has been contented to accept a disclaimer of the intent, but the continued and persevering character of these outrages is such as to arouse the indigni-tion of the country, and to require its arrest at once, and to end at once and the continuance of such indignities. The slave trade is alleged as the excuse. The committee will not discuss that It is sufficient that the United States, though often invoked to do so, refuses to recognize the right of police. They rest on the principle that the marine under their flag cannot be visited or questioned without their consent; and the committee deem this a fit occasion to declare it as a principle of the United States, admitting of no reserve orjaalifi-cation, and to be maintained at any cost.

They admit no right of visitation, far less of search. Such matters have no foundation in law or comity, aid cannot be tolerated by any sovereign Power without derogation from her sovereignty. The infraction of sovereignty consists in the visitation. The best American and English authorities Stow-ell for instance so deciding, founding-the decision on' two firstly, the equality of all independent StateB, and the community of the sea as a highway. Indignant as the American people are and ought to be at these aggressions, yet their occurrence will afford an opportunity to end them at once and forever; and the committee refrain from recommending further legislation only from the reason that the President has ordered all of our available navy to the infested waters, with orders to protect our flag.

It is believed that this measure will be serviceable for the present in stopping the outrages. The subject has also been brought to the notice of the, offending Power, both through the Minister at London and the Minister at Washington, and we cannot, therefore, until we receive a reply from Great Britain, decide on measures that will be a guarantee for the future, for nothing short of that will satisfy the American people. Therefore, while refraining from recommending present legislation, the committee have unanimously Resolved, That American ships at sea under the American flag remain under the jurisdiction of the country to which they belong, and therefore that any visitation or molestation is an infraction of the sovereignty of the United States. Resolved, That these aggressions demand such an unequivocal explanation from Great Britain as Bhall prevent their recurrence forever in the future. Resolved, That the committee approves of the action of the Executive, and are prepared to recommend such future legislation as circumstances may require.

The resolutions will be considered to-day. Rhode Island U. S. Senator. We are gratified to see the election of Henry B.

Anthony to the U. 8. Senate. Being a good editor, thoroughly ac- quainted with the men of the country and'the measures before the country, able in speech, tolerant in opinion, a Whig of the Clay and Webster school, we are-suro that he will fill the place with credit to himself and honor to the State. This election will add anpther to the opposition force in the higher branch bf Congress.

Bartholomew, the sculptor, died at Naples on the 1st ultl He was a native of Connecticut. His age was about 80. His residence in Italy extended over a period of eight years, broken only by two brief visits to this country. He has left a large number of finished works, many of which are in private galleries in New York, Baltimore, Hartford and Albany. scnooner Francis rench, ot union, JNew Jersey, has been seized by an inspector here, a fugitive slave having been found concealed on board.

Why is a dandy like a mushroon Because he's a regular sap-head, his waist is remarkably slender, his growth is exceedingly rapid, and his top is uncommonly tender. It is said the early birds pick up the worms but the gentlemen who smoke, and ladies who dance until three or four o'clock in tbe morning, would do well to consider the worms pick up the early birds. SCENE IN THE BBNDEETH HOUSE, OSkw York, May 14. Six Gentlemen seated round aisffile.) 1st GentlemanTbiB house is owned by the maker of the celebrated Brandreth Fills, which have great merit. I have a brother who lives in New Hampshire, and who was for a long time sick.

The doctors around did not seem to help him; his courage and energy failed; his step was feeblehand his countenance and eyes indicated constant physical debility. Finally he was prevailed upon to take Brandeth's Pills, and strange as it may appear to you, the first box put him right on his feet and their use for a few months, restored him entirely to perfect health. He thinks that Dr. Brandreth is superior to all living men. 2d Gentleman I am from Buenos Ayres.

The brother of Rosas was for a long time a bed-ridden paralytic. No idea was entertained that he would ever recover the UBe of his limbs. His case was supposed helpless; but an enlight-end JeBuitsaid, "Try a few doses of Brandreth's Pills; they may possibly benefit you." He used a few doses, and was helped. He continued them daily, he increased to ten pills, night and morning; he began to feel the circulation in the remote extremeties. The use of the Pills was further judiciously persevered in; eufBcato say, that in less than six months he was perfectly cured, having recovered the use of his limbs completely.

He immediately had a picture of Dr. Brandreth painted, as his tutelary saint, and to this day he has burning before it two large candles, which he designs to continue in proof of his veneration for the man whose pills restored htm to health. Mr. Graham, tf. S.

O. at Buenos Ayres, narrated to me the above facts, and I know them to be true. Sri Gentleman Brandeth's Pilla have made many cures here. A friend of mine of large, fortune and high social position, was afflicted with a dropsy. His physicians gave him no hope, advised him to settle hi3 worldly affairs, for his time on earth was to be of brief duration.

He was directed by a special Providence to Brandreth's Pills; he read over a pamphlet relating to them; he took a first dose; he followed the plan of purgation right onwad; his largest dose was fifteen pills in a single day. The absorbants were arous.ed to action the excess of watery deposits was removed, and in the very prime of his manhood and usefulness he was restored to vigorous health. Dr. Brandreth's Pills have not begun to be half known yet. 4th Gentleman I know Brandreth's Pills are a wonder-fulremedy.

InJagrao, Rio Grand, Braiil, they were administered to a man who had bees sick for five years, confined to his bed by inflammatory rheumatism. His limbs were contracted and drawn up, his hands closed and stiffened. He took the pills four in the morning and four in the evening, and drank freely of beef-soup, which was his only diet. In six weeks he was entirely cured, and rode six miles to see me, on horseback. Tkis cure, effected by Brandreth's Pills, after many medicines and physicians had failed, caused the son of Dr.

Brandreth to sell at retail seventeen hundred dollarg worth, of his pills in that little town in two weekB. 5A Gentleman A Mr. TJnderhiU. of Westchester countyi who fought in the war of 1S12, is a great admirer of Dr. Brandreth, because, he says, his pills saved his life.

He was suffering from a cancerous affection in his left breast, and had been under treatment for three yeara without any benefit. He finally commenced to try the different patent medicines, but got no better until he began with Brandreth's Pills. These taken every night, in doses varying from five to ten, cured him entirely in two months. Some time after he was badly hurt by a tree filling upon his back, but still he took Brandreth's Pills every day. His surgeon told him they could do no good for a local injury, and that it would be at least a year before he could walk.

In three weeks he was restored to health, and ascribes his recovery to them. He swears he will vote for Brandreth as long as he lives. 6A Gentleman And these Pills are sold at No. 291 Canal street, Brandreth Building? 1st GentlemanThey are, at 25 cents a box, and by JOHN YORK June 3 Nashville.

St. Louis, Thursday, May 27. The last detachment of troops for Utah, under command of Major Paul, numbering 210 men, left Jefferson Barracks last night for Fort Leavenworth. A letter to the Democrat, dated Leavenworth, 23d says "There is no intermission in the preparatory labors of the troops consequent on the recent intelligence from Salt Lake, and, judging from the movements at the Fort, no countermand of orders already given is anticipated. The Head quarters would not move for fifteen or twenty days.

It was understood, however, that Gen. Harney might proceed in advance of his staff, passing the several columns on the route. General Harney had given an order to Col. Cross-man, Quartermaster-Generals to proceed with the fourth column under Col. Morrison; and Major Babbitt, Adjutant-General, is to be stationed at Fort Laramie, whither he goes immediately.

Leavenworth, Wednesday, May 26, via Booneville, Thursday May 27. Four companies of the 2d Infantry, from Fort Randall, arrived at the Fort here this morning, and will remain to garrison the post. Col. May's column will positively march on Friday. Domestic Troubles of the Democracy.

A late number of Forney's Philadelphia Press, in reference to the ensuing fall elections, has the following: Preparations are making to pour a new batch of documents, in support of the Lecompton and English iniquilies, into our State. Club-rooms are being opened at Washington, officered by Jones and Bigler, and filled with clerks, from which millions of -arguments, in favor of these great wrongs, are to be disseminated to every part of the State. Even Owen Jones is flooding his district with Steven's report in favor of the very Senate bill which he so steadily opposed! So the issue is not only accepted, but insisted upon; and so let it be. Pennsylvania is to be made the battle-ground in October. She was the battle-ground in 1856.

The theatre is the same the actors the same, and the principle the same, with the diflerence that those who were elected to office'upon the principle now stand forth fully armed against it' These latter have many potent influences on their side. A mass of patronage held out to a mass of expectants; a host of dependents whose bread iB safe only as they defend the wrong; a Senate ready to reject or ratify, as Democrats are fair or false. But we have great faith in the result. The people are aroused. The public mind is filled with light; the public heart with indignation.

If there was a rupture in the strife of 1856, in honestly supporting an honest creed, what will it be in 1858, when that same creed, basely deserted, implores for rescue and for championship!

Times of the 28th We published, a few days ago, a dispatch from St. Louis, briefly giving a rumor to the effect that an attack had been made on Montgomery's band in Kansas, aud that several of them had been killed. We now, as usual with all Kansas matters, have two versions of the affair. One is to the effect that a party of Pro-Slavery men from Missouri made an incursion into tbe Territory, captured a number of Free-State men, formed them in a line and fired upon rhem, killing five of them and badly wounding six others after which they made off. The other is, that a Captain Hamilton and some twenty others who had been driven from Lynn County by Montgomery's men, after placing their families in safety iu Missouri, determined to return and protect their property.

They made prisoners of several of Montgomery's men at Choteau's trading post, and attacked a party of them at a fortified house near that point, killing ten of them. Among the killed was Capt. Reed, one of Montgomery's Board of Commissioners, before whom all his prisoners are. tried. This account states distinctly that not a Missourian took part in the affair.
