Our Washington Correspondence. Wasnineron, Dec. 7, 1854. The Indian Depredations and Marders on the Inde- pendence ond Salt Lake Mail Route—The Post- master General's Prejudice ‘gainst Col. Magraw, the Enemy of Forney, and his Partiality for the Mail Contractors on the Route Between Mobile and Montgomery, Alabama. M. Postmaster General Campbell does not dis- guise enough his partiality for sundry favorite mail contractors, and his strong prejudice against sun- dry otter contra tors who have proved too indepea- dent to toady to bis imperious highness. His con- du t touching the mail route between Mobile aod Moctgomery,in Alabama, and the mail route be- tween Independence and the Salt Lake, is very strikiog, and deserving of animadversion. The favorites on the Mobile and Montgomery route, who were getting $36,000 per annum, asked for an increase of $24 000 per apnum, and desired the Postmaster General to recommend Congress to renew their contract for four years, at $60,000 per annum, He complied most readily with their re _ Queat,and Congress, upon bis re-ommendation, re- newed the contrast, as desired, accordingly. But, as if this was not sufficiently kind and indal. gent, in the shape of relief, to chase favorites, the Postmaster Generai has given a contract to other favorites to carry the mail over the same route, by water, up and down the Alabama river, three times a week for five months in the year, and tion of Mr. Smith, but it has come out ia support of Mr. Uptom. This would seem to indicate breach in the Know Nothing party itself, asone of the proprietors of the Telegraph is Mr. C. W. Black, a very efficient member of the next House of Repre- | sentatives, from Boston, who has been spoken of for rabip.of that body, and who has beea a the Speake: leading and influential Kaow Notuing from the very commencement of the ora existence. The amount of the charges Smith is, that he cid aid in enforcing the itive alave law, an: a4 Goes not ones oy Maine 5 m whigs were possessed of > fe Coul be no doubt whatever of Mr. Ups ‘a piection, tor they could easily give him 2,000 more votes than were cast for Governor Washburn, while Mr. Smith’s vote must be much less than the number cast for Mr.Garcener. The rum men, however, and | the national democrats, will pro! gee in the character of the opposition that is made to the yor's lection a motive for sustaining him. | There ig democratic candidate up, (Mr. Adams,) but his comination is # mere fazce, the contest belay between Upton and Smith. What Mr. Upton’s views are on the Maine law I do not know, but he is supposed to be unfriend'y to that measure. Weare Te have a spirited figut, which will not be the lees interesting because a plurality will, for the firat time in our manic’ , be sufficient to elect all officers. The Know Notaings, in mskiog ap their aldermanic ticket, passed over some members of the preseat board, who are knowa wo be free soilers; and this has probably had something to do with the opposition that has been got up to Mr. Smith. [ have frequently heard the Mayoralty queation and the United States Senatorial question coupled toge- six times a week forthe remaining seven months, at a compensation of $56,000 perannum. Ofcourse this maii by water greatly reduces tue weight and bujk of the mail carried by land between the sametwo pointe. The contractors have lost nothing by Iu | aian depredations and murders; aud yet, they have bad reacily granted to themall the extras they asked for. How different the lice of official conduct pursued by the Post Office Department towards tue coa- tra tors for carrying the mail bes weeo Ladepeadence and the Salt Lake! Messrs. Magraw & Reeside coa- tractea for carrying this laiter mail moathly, at $14,440 per annum—deemed a very low compenia- tioz. The route is 1,250 mites long, aud too mail | was to be carried in foar wule carriages. Tne eon tractors started the enterprise on the 13) July last. ‘Tbe stocked the route ab 4a expense of more tian $30,000, made all neves:acy propa ations fur winte:, and bad freighted out, at differeut voiuts oa tne | route, grain for the males and provisions for tue it stations, made hay, &<., to the amouat The Indian difficulties, »0¥ so terrible along that route, did not exist, and were nov fo:eseen or an- ticipated, at the time the contract for carrying the mail was entered into. | Mr. Magraw, oue of the coatractora, has just re- | turned trom the route to tue States. Oa his way ia with the September mail, he lesrned, near Fors Bridger, of the massac e o! Lieu’. Gratsan and his party sear Fort Laramie. This, however, did not dete? him from making his best exertivns to go on witn sad carcy out bis contract, But oa ais arrival | at Fort Laramie he found that his keaper, Auguste | Lucian, ded been killed by the Indians, thicteau | mvles ron cff, and that he had been thus deprived of his relay of fresh mules. With hiv tired animals he started on, snd travelled into lode vendence from Fort Larmie, seven buodred and fifty miles, in nice Gays. He remained at L[adependence until within a couple of weeks past, compieting his arrargements for the winter service. Beliaving that the necessary arrangements had been made to caity out the contract in spite of the {ndian depredations, he left for the States, on a vinit to his family in Pennsylvania. He arrived here, aad received soon after the sad intelligence that the Pawnee Indians had attacked and seriously wounded his keeper, Frank Berry, who was trying to save his herd, amouating to seventeen mules, The Indians succeeded, however, | after wourding the keeper, in getting ten of the nies within 300 yards of Fort Kearny, aad in fall | view of Lieutenans Heath, the commanding offi er ot that peat. Lieutenant Heath, from » lack of men aud means, was compelled to be a witness of an outrage which he would, but could not, punish on the spot. iten Mr. Magraw first arrived here, he detailed | the losses he had sustained in his eaterprise, the ‘fficaities and obstructions he had encountered, and | the mancer in which he and his men had been har- rassed by the hostile Ingiaus, and suggested to the Post Office Department toat it must eitner make turtcer nd beiter means for carrying the mail over the rcate in question, or he would be compelled to abandoa and give up the tontract. fo neituer of these propositions would the department assent. ‘The Po-tmaster Genera! would not allow more com- pensation for carrying the mail through in safety, nor yet consent 5 the contractors should sur render heir contract. Mesntime, the melancholly iatelligence has ar- 4d, by telegraph, that three of Magraw’s men, faithful feliows, and a passenger, a Mr. Kincaid, of St. Louis, with ten th usana dol lars ia s,ecie with bim,-have been attacked, robbed aod muriered by a party of hostile Sioux Indisns. | eleston varicus questions, from which it appeara i coantry on this point, and somewhat mar the har- | who founded Mount Auburn cemetery, so that there | ther during the last day or two; aod if Mr. Smith gould be estan Geueral Wilson’s chaaces of get- ting into the Senate would be 4g! lessened, if | nos’ entirely destroyed. ‘The old coalition was aacri- ficed to the demands of the temperance mea, aud the new one is threatened from te same quarter. Meu rarely learn from experience. Mr. Sauley, now an alderman of that city, has been nominated for Meee by the Know Notaingsof Charlestown. He is anti-annexationist, Tne auaexa- tionists ana foes of the Kaow Nothings will bring forward a candidate 10morrow. The temperance meu are with the Know Nothings everywhere, it appears, save in Bostoa. Shortly after the Scate lection was over, returns were made to the head- quarters of the Know Nothings in this city, showing the antecedents of the members of the Legislature that out of the 416 Senators and Represantatives chosev, upwards of 300 were friends of tue Maine law, The (ime power and influence of the hquor interest in ton make tae city an exception to the mony of the victors. 4 new Second Advent chap:l, on the corner of | Hudson aud Kneeland streets, was dedicated yes- terday afiernoon, several hundred persons being present.

Joho C.Ciner was arrested this morning, he being one of the parties indicted with Tnoeodore Parker. He was arraigned, and gave bail in the sam of $1,500, Mr. Francis Jackson, the well known Garri- scnian abolitionist, becoming his surety. The arrest- ed partes eppear to be surprised at the civility with which tuey ure treated by the officers, who execute their duties in the genteelest possible manner, using | them as Mr. Izaak Walton recommesds anglers to use the frogs they make their bait of—‘“as if they | loved them.” The triais will probably commence some time in March next. | Cochituate water remaivs about the same. It is | @ curious tact thatin some localities it is as as it ever was, aud can be used without the slightest trouble. A ststue of Judge Story has been made by his scn, now in Italy, and S00n arrive here, and be plsced in one of the corners of the cnapel at Mouut Auburn. Iu each of the three other corners of the chapel a statue is tobe setup. These statues will | be of John Wirthrop, one of the fathers of Massa- ehnietts, and eminent in various ways; of James Otis, whose part in the earlier m.yoments of the Revolution was so conspizuous and so aseful; and of John Adams, who was one ot the priacipal | Northern men that founded the Union. r. | | Justice Story had a leading place amongst those ig an sppropriateness in placing his statue in the chapel, apatt from covsiderationa of his eminence | as @ public man, and as a representative of our own | i ime.

Some sixty persona have been murdered by the hostile Indians between Independence and the Salt Lake{within a year past. Why is it that pro- per and suitable provisions are ‘not made for the safe treneit of the inai] over that route—a mail that ay from one thousaud to eighteen nurdred po in weight ? Why is it that Mr. Postmaster General Campbell neglects this mail route as ho does, and takes such specia. and expensive care of the Mobile and Mont- | xomery mail route? Is it because the contractors on the latter route are his favorites, whilst one of the contractors on the former route is the Mr. Ma- gtaw, who, 8 year 9 against Col. John W. Forney? Does Cel.

Exrostror, Our St. Louls Correspondence. Sr. Louis, Dec. 6, 1854. The Dangers of the Mail Service on the Plains. We have received sad news from the Piains. On the 13th of November the carriess of the mail left Fort Laramie with all the mails feom Utah. After reveling about six miles they were attacked and murdered by a party of Sioux Indians.

Noel, who, on | Friday night last, committed a fiendish outrage on the person of a daughter of Mra. Howard, a widow ledy, who resides seven miles from Perrysburg in that county. She was overtaken by Noel on the | road, who, infuriated by her resistance, beat her in the most shocking manner, and dragged her into the ‘woods, where her cries attracted the a:tention of two travellers, who, on reaching the spot, found | Nee] with his knees upon her t, ting his victim in a manner so ehocking as to leave no of bis intention to commit murder. Her dress was nearly all torn off, the skin on ove side of her head ee tne ae by the roagh mauner in which | abe bad mn dragged on the ground, and her in- juries. in other respects, were so severe that for some time it was not supposed she could recover. | | Noel, the monster who perpetrated the deed, was | | one of the party convicted uf tue murder of an In- | dian, who attempted to defend his wife froma | similar outrage, some years since. For this crime | Noel had served a term in the Penitentiary. On seeing the travellers he took to the woods, but the alarm was immediately given, and the house of luis | father, w! he lived, was wat shed.

Grovcester Fismerrs, 1854.—The regular fish- | ing eeason baying now closed, the Gloucester ves- sels pave s)l arrived and are now in winter quarters. As far a8 the loss of vesse's is concerned, Gloacester has been quite successful, having lost no vessel siace the spring, when three, with all their crews, were wrecked. Since that time no accident of any conse: quence bas occurred tothe Gloucester fleet. The early fisheries on Georges 3ank were not ox a gene- ra! thirg co successful as last year, and the vessels in mauy cases were much in arrears when they sailed for the Bay St. Lawrence. Those vessels that were epabled to complete two trips to the Bay (the first fares being principally No. 1's) bave made good veyeges but the larger part of the Gloucester vessels pr termed only one trio, in many cases being absent over five montha These vessels re’ ed home with faces of poor mackerel, principally Nos. and 3's, and such was the ecstof cntfiis the p ent year, that mary veasels had not enough money left at the expization of their voyages t> pay their bi | ut withstanding t is, however, the Gloucester vessels have in many jostances made & fair tusiness, and bave done much better than those from any other fishing port.

Supreme Court. Before Hon. Judge Roosevelt. OPINION ON AN ASSIGNMENT. Ely vs. Cook.—The assignment was in this case & transfer of all for the equal benefit of all. It allowed no exemptions and created no prefereaces, and provided for ‘no surplus, until and unless ‘all the creditors should be paid and satisfied.” Im that event, and in that event only, the assignees were to return the surplus to Cook, the debtor. Is such an assignment, on its face, fraudu: | lent? Or can such an assignment, without a reckless abuse of terms, be said to be a transfer made for the use of the party making the same? It is admitted that | without any express direction as to s surplus, if any, 4 | trust, by operation of law, would have resulted in favor of the assignor, and that’such a resulting trust would not have aifected the validity of the instrument. How, then, can an express direction of the same precise im: rt as that which the law, without the words, would ve implied and sanctioned, be unlawful. | Such assignments, when made in good faith, are no more transfers ‘‘for the use of the assignors’’ than are ordinary mortgages for the use of the mortgagor. In the one case, ax in the other, if there be # surplus on the sale it goes, as it obviously ought to go, and as the | instrument provides it shall go, to the party making the mortgage or assignment. That is a “use” in either case incideut to the transfer, but not a ‘‘use’’ for wnich the transfer was made. And in this lies the whole differ- ence—s difference, not verbal or tecunical, but founded in common sense—overlooked, I admit, (and most un- fortunately for the cause of diminished litigation,) in some judicial dicta, but having its basis, nevertheless, in authority as well as reason. Where 'a debtor, por- fectly solvent, wishing to prevent the ordinary course of collecting a debt by judgment and execution, makes an assignment solely for that object, thus delay- ing and hindering hia creditor, for his own and not his creditor's advantage—in other words, to promote his own gain at the expense of hia creditor's loss—such @ | transfer, itis obvious, although nominally “for the use”? of others, ia really, as the statute expreases it, ‘for the use of the pefson making the same,’ and therefore fraudulent and void, Kellogg vs. Slawson, 15 Barbour, 56; Ogden ys. Peters, 15 Barb., 560, But where, on the contrary, the property of the debtor is of a doubtful | cbaracter, and may, or may not, according to circum. stances, be sufticient to discharge his debts in full, and | his primary object and influencing motive is ‘to dis- tribute it cauitably and fairly,” an assignment in such case, instead of violating the policy of the law or the rights of ereditors, would be in harmony with both—it would, in the language of Mr. Justice Strong, “not only be exempt from the charge of fraud, but would be com- mendable.”” Ifassignments by embarrassed debtors are ever valid, the one under consideration, it seems to me, must be so adjudged. Even the plaintiff's counsel him: self on the argument appeared to concede the point. Were it not, he said, for certain recent decisions which did not commend themselves, he admitted, to his rea son, the suit would not have been instituted. Tose decisions are either susceptible of the distinctions which have been adverted to, or, in my judgment, they are not law. As generally interpreted, they shock the common understanding. Assignments have been set aside, where, to ordinary and even to judicial perception, (see Peters’ case supra,) ‘There was neither actual nor presumptive fraud.” I am not disposed blindly and hastily to fol low these decisions, but, witn Mr. Justice Strong, “To leave it to the Legislature (the appropriate department) to abolish, if they should think proper, all preferential assignments,” and, I may add, all other assignments, unless officially made and officially regulated. Until such legislative action, it is the province of the judi- | ciary to administer the law as it has been recognized for more than half a century. Judgment affirmed, Opening of the ‘Ste Lawrence. {From the Chicago Democrat, Dec. 4.] Years ago we tne attention of the public not only of lake but ocean navigation; that our do:ks would be visited by veseela from Liverpool, London, Glasgow, Cork, &c.; that our lake vessels could | clear down the St. Lawrence in the fall and be em- loyed proiany during the winter in the coasting de of not coly this but foreign coantries.

This gentleman was the - nator of tis lime of steamers, and one of tne princi- list ees in urging the Canadian roment to con- it with it for the transport of the mails. Wenow learn that parties are in this city from Liverpool rey line ot propellers to run between tuis city and Montreal, in connection with the steam line across the Atlantic. We have often heretofore spoken of this line, and urged upon the attention of our Cana- diam friends the benefits which would accrue to them by its establishment. In fact, their ocean lina is not complete until they connect with it at this end a line of apropatiees which will bring them the rade of the West, and open up to them & means of | pp heey commuuication}witu the Western Scates, dependent of New York and Boston. Will not Hon. John Young, of Montreal, or Hon. Isaac Buchanan, or Mr. Harris, of Hamilton, giv farther aid to this subject? bey have ‘ou through” the good work so far, to use a Yankee phrase—let them not pause half way in their pro- greass towards such a glorious consummation.

Upon searching | the premises of the father, a portion of the stolea om were found, but the young man, Sole, had amped. The father was arrested and brought to this city as a participaat in the crime, and diligent search made fcr the son.

Officer Kittle arrived at the house of the aunt in the night, and being told that Sole was not there, aud bsiag cenied admit- tance, forced his way into the house. Iu passing from one room to another, the officer canght sight of a person bastily springing out of bed and into a clocet, and all attempts to open the door from the entside were prevented by the person within, who held it shut. The woman of the house continued her protestations that tne person in the closet was not Sole, and complained greviously that the officer was breaking down the door of tne closet. Mr. Kit- tle replied that she need give herself no fear on ac- count of her door,as he knewa better way to un- cage its occupant than by breakiug down the door. He said he would “‘merely make him loosen his hold by shooting bim through the door.” Suiting the action to the word, he drew his revolver and voiot- ed it. The movement had the desired effect.

Fiewt in a Grave Yarp.—Yesterday an Irish lIsdy, Mrs. Kerns, wae brought before the Mayor, charged by James Fox with haviag, in conjacction with two others of the fair sex, and Patrick Kerns, given him a severe pummeling in the Catholic Cen etery on Sanday last. It appears that Fox at- tevced the faneral of his brother William on that day, in company with Mrs. Fox, Mrs. Kerns and a Mre. Noonan, three sisters, tue first named lad, being the wife of the deceased. Jn the grave yard, a difficulty arose between the parties as to, the dis- sition of the corpse. Mrs. Fox and her two sisters wished it?baried in their lot, and Mr. Jas Fox, ber brother-in-law, insisted that it suculd be buried in his lot. Mrs. Fox avd her two sistera seized ove end of the coffia to drag it off to their burying lot, and the brother of the deceased seized the other with the determination to deposit it in his family’s last resting place. A spirited acd noisy fight took place, during wich the corpse, and tne coffin in which it was; got quite severely handled.
