Socicty a:d Tolitics in Washington.—No: 10. Wasuincton, D. C., March 10, 1854. TO TPE EDITOR OF THE HERALD. The Ides of March have come, and gone too, but Nebraska still lingers in the House of Representa- tives. The fact is, Washington, though a great, @ very great place in many respects, is a very dull ne, and Iam not sure but that I shall leave it to Make a visit home in a few days. Frank Pierce was here this evening. I came into my room about 9 o'clock. He was in a perfect fu « What 's the matter?” said I. “Matter! why, I bave been waiting here for two hous.” “Is it possible? However, it will do you good. | You keep others waiting, and now you know prac- tically how one feels when he is kept waiting.” “Well, Sam, what have you been about to-night? You are not often out when I call. What kept you?” “A lady.” “A lady! Come, come, Sam, this won't do.” “ What won't do? Never mind; a lady did keep me from returning home so soon as usual. It was’nt any Washington lady though, Frank, you may be sue of that.” “Who was it, then? Not your wife. She has not me she ?” Mm “No; but it is near, though. She is from our native State, and my native town ; and between you and me, Frank, she talked to me so much about old associations, and hinted that evil communication wou!d corrupt good manners, that | am fearful, and have half made up my mind to leave this towa, and go back to the pluce of my nativity.” “Oh, nonsense. Don’t think of such a thing. What on earth would 1 do without you? The gov- ernment could not get on. 1 should” have nobody to encourage me—to cheer me up. You must not think of such a thi You are quite down in the dumps to-night.” “ No, not unusually so; but I feel a great dislike to the atmosphere of this town, after breathing some of the pure, tresh air of our own hills, as it were.”” “ Air of our own hills! What's in the wind now ?”’ You intend to die at home, don’t you?” “I should like to do so, if IL aint killed here by the corrupt scamps I have got about me.” “TI have an idea, too, that I should like to die ina purer place than this. Don’t you never wish you ‘was home? “What's the use of ing when you can’t get there. I have got to stay my time out, and don’t see how I can get away; but I had hoped you would have stood by me.” « “Tt's no use. You will be guided by those who do 73 barm and not good by their advice, and the talk have had of home to-night has made me quite home- sick; and as | am not obliged to stay here, and only do so to oblige you, 1 think I will leave. If you should want me badly, all you have got to do is to chenes your course, and I will come back to you.” “Ah, Sam, you willfeel better in the morning. ‘That lady from your native town has started you off. | I dare say, if she was to stop here a few days she would get the prevalent ideas. But come, I want | your advice about a certain matter. 1 came here ex- pressiy to-night to talk about Cuba. You have read about the Black Warrior business, have you not?” “Yes, I have read all that has been published. What are you going to do about it? Send a fleet there, eh?” “Fleet! oh, get out. Don’t joke upon serious sub- jects. Where are we to get a fleet?” “Make a contract with George Law or Cornell Vanderbilt. I see the latter is poking about here, and would like a job. If you are determined to have Cuba, now is your chance.” “I think so myself, and I told Marcy that this ron Warrior abandonment was a first rate opening for us.” “Jt could not be bettered. Send up what vessels of war can be scared up directly to Havana, and, amy word for it,“you will have a war directly.” “There is no power in Havana to treat with us.” “We don’t want any worse treatment than we have had to bring on a war.” “But I can’t declare war. Ihave no such power invested in me by the constitution.” “That's true enough; but you can easily get the ‘country into a war with Spain if you will take the mani¢ement of this business out of Marcy’s hands. He wiil bungle it.” “How can I do it?” “Send @ young captain with a man-of-war to Ha- ‘Boo wir tsr-ant “He will kick up a free fight in forty-eight hours Ingraham has got a Presidential nomination for threa- tening to blow an Austrian vess¢l out of the water in the Kozsta case, and the next naval commander that has a chance to fire into anything foreign will ay do it; for be is well aware now that the peo- ple of this country would sustain him. With a prospect of the iwontn any of our naval captains, ifthey only had & smull brig, would fire into the Moro Castle. That is your policy. Send out one or more veasels with orders to settle the matter in Havana, and in eas than a month we will have a righteous war with Spain. England and France have got quite enough on their hands in looking after Russia, and while they are busy let us prig Cuba, and then pay for it afterwards if there is any fuss made. We have got to have it, and now there is a good chance.” “It would direct public attention to something else beside my free soilism and blunders.” “To be sure it would, and Nebraska would be no- where. It would kill all your opponents. They ‘would have to quarrel with you for doing the most popular thing you have ever done. Just do as I tell and it work well. Youcan be elected again you will a about a war with Spain. In fact, it is about the on! y thing you can do to regain your lost popularity ; and it’s so easily done—a hint—a line— 0x a private letter to one of our naval captains to fire inte anything Spanish, will bring on a war in less than no time. Just try it on.” like. !t would answer as well asa declaration of war from Congress.” “Copgress be hanged. You fired into foreign na- tious in your inaugural, and now let some of your naval captains do it in earnest. I see your friends are moving in New York.” “ Which friends ?”” Vell, the Van Buren office holders under your administration.” “ Those are not my particular friends.” « The friends of your Cabinet then, which amounts to the same thing. If they are not, why don’t you turn them out?” “} can't consistently. The fact is, I'm so complete- ly ‘wool’-gathered that I don’t know who is who, aud I'm beginning not to care. “That's right. Leave small matters alone, and strike a big blow that will demolish all opposition. Go into the Cuba business with a perfect looseness, Force awar with Spain. That will bring us into collision perhaps with England and France, and then Tam sure you will have no further bother with small Matters. “Precisely my opinion. Iagree with you, Sam, perfectly.” . “Tf you would ert act upon any one opinion, even if it was your own; but you don’t. You agree with every one that approaches you until he is gone, and then you agree with the next comer. You try to lease all, and the result is that where you make one terested friend you disgust ten others who are dis- porcd to be ycur disinterested friends.” “You are severe to-night.” “Not at all. I tell you plain but unpalatable traths for « man who is President; but I don’t care wheth er you like it or not, 1 am going to leave this place for I find that I cannot really serve you or the coun try, for the reason that,you are ‘mity unsartain,’ a: & Woully-head would say.” “And you are really going, Sam?” “As sure as the cars go to-morrow.” “Then you will be in time to take a part in the Nebraska ‘excitement i New Hampshire.

[From the New Orleans Picayune, Feb. 27.) The accident ocurred on Sunday evening, February * nee was Senay crowded, on the occasion of e bene! ir. Carrier, When, at about half-past eight o'clock, the entire right to the Teh ot ths stage, on the side towards Royal st , gave Way, carry- ing With it the second tier of boxes, crushing the occu- pants beneath, and scattering the wreok and timber into the it and parquette, both of which were filled with people. The scene that followed baffles description. One joud wail of anguish arose from the terrified audience, and shrick after shriek flew up from the numbers who Were Writhing in the agony of their Wounds and injuries. During the first excitement it was believed that at least twenty or thirty persons had been killed on the apot, and net miracle indeed that not double that number per- ‘The gallery which gave> way was gg by colored | people, and was attached to the rafters of the ceiling by iron bars. It was also connected with the second gallery by slight iron columns. The segnd gallery was, before this season, supported by iron columns resting’ on the first tier or dress circle. This year, however, they were removed, and the dress circle extended some distance out over the parquette and pit. Behind the dress circle open boxes, on the sides, is a passage or corridor, generally occupied by gentlemen standing. The theatre was crowded, for the benefit of a favorite performer, Mr. Carrier, the low comedian. The second act of the first piece was drawing to its close, when » sharp report, like that of » musket, startled the audience. Many thought it was some incident of the play itself. But in another moment a univeragl cry of alarm—a gene- ral rising—a rush—the cracking and crashing of timber— the screams of women and shouts of men, told too plain- | ly another tale. The terrible struggle and confusion of, such a crowd, endeavoring each one to escape from what threatened to be a scene of general destruction, can scarcely be realized. Several persons who witnessed the gradual fall of the two galleries—the efforts of the strug- gli , and the appearance of the rest of the theatre at the same moment, describe it as something utterly paralyz- ing and horritying—exceed or confisgration, or railrou ne catastrophe they ever wit ‘Yhe general giving way of the two galleries was inevit- us the second was attached to the third by the iron mins already mentioned, and was not itself supported it was. well tnt the fabric was strong, (although unfortunately not strong enough,) else, instead of slowly settling down like the leaves of n table, both galleries would have gone straight down on the dress circle and parquet, crushing all in them, The second gallery came down so as to rest at a wide angle against the wall and the back row of boxes of the dress circle. A low roof was thus left over the ge way volind the boxes, which, afforded # patho safety to m There was no time to calculate chances, how- ever, and Mr. Jules Lavergne being caught, with a good number of other gentlemen under this place, pulled some of the iron burs out of a window by main strength, and escaped thus into a side yard. Fortunately but few ladies are ever present at the theatre on Sundays, and but few were there last evening. Some half dozen were in the boxes on the side where the accident occurred, but they all, except two, escaped with- out serious injury. The news spread like wildfire through the city, and the streets in the vicinity were speedily blocked ‘up with spectators, some impelled by motives of curiosity only, others seeking for relatives and friends. The balconies, windows and doors, for squares, were filled with anxious gazers, for almost every family in that part of the city had a son, a brother, a father or a husband at the thea- tre. Here and there were elegantly dressed women, pale | with fright, waiting anxiously for those who came not, in- quiring of every passer-by for this or that person, near and dear. Fa | the tales of hairbrendth escapes, the groups of all-atten- tive listeners, the wad accounts of injuries and death, ade this asecmblage one of deep and dramatic interest. To the horrors of the first catastrophe came near being added others more terrible still—those of a fire. The lamp-lighter of the thentre saw the danger, and turned off the gas on the side threatened, in time. of the theatre presented a scene of desolation and gloom not easily realized. The parquette was covered with Uroken timber, thrown down by those in search of any that might be concealed under the broken galleries. The police, under Capt. Baldwin and Recorder Ramos, were busy restoring order and lending their assistance other- wise. ‘The stage was crowded with actors, carpenters, spectators, &c., hurrying to and fro. The excellent manager appeared to suffer more than any one else. In a little dressing room lay stretched out the bloodied and half-naked form of one who, but a few moments be- fore, was in the pride of youth and strength. His mangled and disfigured face could hardly be recognized. The blood ran from his nortrils, mouth, and enr—a gasp now and then alone showed that life had not yet fied. hastly wound in the head showed how fatal a blow had cen struck. He was unconscious that death hovered over him; that friendly skill was endeavoring to prolong life; that’ a group of old college friends and relations stood around, rome weeping, all sad—watching the last moments of one so much loved. Poor Malus! In a coffee house near by, a young man was tending the disfigured remains of his brother, a poor boy of thir- teen, the darling of his agonized mother. But enough of this. Our Creole families are so large and so closely connected, that an accident to one reaches ores of others. Hence the general feeling of dread and Jeom this untoward event has orrasioned. ‘The following is s list of all the persons known to be jured:— fide ian Malus, notary, about twenty-seven years old, Fergus Toledano, about thirteen years old, resides above Algiers, killed.

We learn that the building will be thoroughly repaired in the most substantial and careful manner:— We, the undersigned, having been requested to give our opinion on the present state of the Orleans theatre, aftert he painful occurrence of Sunday, 26th February, 1864, do Hereby certify that the said. the repaired, was constructed on two different gnd distinct principles, to wit:—That part of the theatre consisting of the parquette, pit, dress circle or first tier of boxes, lattice boxes and front boxes, on ‘the principlg of iron columns, raised on brick foundations, and wall resting on the soil; and that the second and third tiers of galler- jes on each side, on the Uy of suspension iron rods, hooked and adapted to the frame of the roof. Now, we the undersigned do hereby further certify, that in our opinion, the second of these two princi was and is entirely defective, on account of the ity of the iron used and of its unskilfal workmanshi iP and therefore do reject the same as dangerous and | unsafe. But as to to the portion of said thentro still subsisting, and constructed on the first enunciated principle, to w: That of finding its resting point on the solid soil beiow, we unanimously declare that no construction of any kind can offer better conditions of safety and solidit, peblic, and that no citizen of New Orleans should be afraid to trust his own life and that of his famil | its walls, being satiefed in our consciences that the said remaining portion can bear one hnndred times the | weight which the fullest house could bring within it.

In addition to the list of persons published in our ye: terday afternoon’s edition as injured by the fall of the galleries at the opera house, we hear that Mr, Denis, young Creole, of, this city, ‘was wounded. Tt was not iire. Pruilhet, but the two Misses Druithet, who were in the dress circle, and one of whom was injured by aslight wound in the face. Those ladies, it appears, found them- selves in the pit, after the accident, without knowing how they got there—their hair combs broken, and, as we were informed, their hair sprinkled with specimens of shirt buttons and gold studs. That looks rather like an exaggeration. It were imyossible, indeed, that stories entirely void of truth should not get abroad.

An enti-Nebraska meeting was held in Madison, Ind., on the 26th ult., at which the following resolutions were passed:— 1, That slavery, politically based on the anti democra- tic principle of hie heen] of property, and degrading labor by making it the task of a servile class, is in dero- gation of the rights and repugnant to the instincts of the people of the North. 2. That freedom, not slavery, is the pervading, vital conception of our institutions, and that the federal Yernment, in organizing Territories not already legisla’ for, should promote freedom and not slavery. 3. That the prohibition of slavery north of 36 deg. 30 min,, in the act for the admission of Missourl, was a mise honorably and amicably accepted, and ever since inviolably observed, and was a statute of repose and con- ceasions implying and reposing silence as to conflicting interests and sections, is consecrated in our reverence by the memories end fame of patriots and , and cannot now be impeached without dishonor, or annulled without nger. 4. That the Territories are _a national property and a trust to be administered by Congress, and Congress can- | not rightfully abdicate or delegate the trust, ad to the question of slavery; that we are unwilling the first squat- ters and adventurers ghall determine, for all time to come, this question in Kansas and Nebraska. 5. That we solemnly protest against the sas and Nebraska bills, or any similar ones, sions designed or tending to repeal, supersede, render inoperative, or in any way modify, impair, disturb, or invalidate the Missouri compromise; that a construction | of the compromise of 1860, to affect in any way the com- | pact of 1820, is anew and ‘dangerous theory in legisla- tion, contrary to the intention and understanding of those who supported and of the people who ratified the compromise of 1850, is afraud upon the people, and an affront to their intelligence. 6. That we invoke the statesmen of the country to the maintenance of the Missouri compromise, and, ‘failing in that appeal, we bespeak the solemn ju t of the people—the arbiters of all legislation, and sovereigns of all public servants, : .

MEETING IN FAVOR OF THE NEBRASKA BILL IN COLUMBUS, OHIO. A large and enthusiastic meeting of the friends of the Nebraska measure was held in Columbus, Ohio, on The following were the resolutions the 28th ult. passed:— Whereas, to the people of the Territories rightfully be- longs the organization of their own institutions; and, whereas, the people ia the only power under the conatita- tion of the United States whereby the question of slavery in the Territories can be anently settled; and, where- as, it shouldbe taken out of the power of ‘abolitionists and other fattionists to cause periodical agitation upon the question of slavery; and, whereas, by the Congres: | sional enactments of 1860 the right and competency of the people to organize their own domeatic Tetitutlona was for the first time recognized in this country, since the Revolution, to the satisfaction of the people, and with the happiest results; now, therefore, be Resolved, That, according to the first principles of democracy, no body exists or can be devised better able to settle the domestic institutions of the Territories than the people thereof; and that the Nebraska bill now before | Congress, being in accordance with this prineiple, and agrecable to the rule first settled in 1860 in the organiza- tion of Utah and New Mexico, deserves, and should re- ceive, the support of every democrat. Resolved, That Congress does not now, and never did, possess any constitutional power to pass irrepealable laws to bind posterity, or to enter into ‘sacred compacts’’ fh and South, or to make any kind of ponding Kan- in any provi- vi between the Nort trenties or any stipulations whatever to separate this | Union into sections, and set up geographical lines ostab- ig slavery on the one side, and forbidding it on the other. Resolved, That the pioneers of North America must have subdued the forest and the prairie, earried civiliza- tion and enlightenment into the wilderness, organized Territories and created States, enlarged the aren of free- dom uyon this continent, and extended the gis of the republic over millions of square miles which will here- after be the home of a free people, this meeting there fore reposes the utmost confidence in their wisdom and patriotiem, and cheerfully leaves to them the decision of all questions respecting their institutions under the constitution. ‘The Detroit 2ritwne says that Gen.

Several witnesses were examined, but the most important evidence is that given by one’ of the girls before al- luded to. The story of the girl is of a revolting charac- ter. She testifies that she would be eleven years old next April; that she resides with her mother, who is now away from home on a visit toa friend in New York. On Sun- day last, during the absence of her mother, this man, in the disguise of a friend, called at the house.

Her sister, who was present, gave her consent, and she accompanied him. After being there a eke short timerhe laid violent hands upon her, which she attempted to resist by force and screams, but without success. Her story is one that could hardly be credited were it not that abundanee of proof is given that extra- | ry violence had been used, and that she had com- | ordi municated the occurrence to her sister and to others soon after her return home. That he enticed her from ber home and to his house, under a pretext that he had a present for her, is fully proven by and that after she had left her mother’s house, and be- fore she returned to it, she was most brutally ‘ravished, are fa established. At the conclusion of the examination of the witnesses on the part of the child, Justice Cole committed the brutal ravisher to jail, in de- fault of bail, until such time as he may desire'a further hearing, or when he shall have been able to procure the attendance of such witnesses as he may desire.—Albany Journal, March z March 1, Married, , by the Rev.
