The thousands who left this city friends ef Pierce, for Cincinnati, would do well to understand that, ©o their return, they are expected neither to disturb the ‘White House or its principal incumbent with cries of Jamentations aud sorrow, as the President is in no mood £0 bear explanations, or to be troubled by sympathisers.

He declared that it was not at his request or desire that his name was put forward for re nomination and that he yielded to outside influence, when he had no Apnger the power to resist it.

The reading room of the Mercantile Library has undergone a complete transformation; aud instead of books and newspapers, nothing but tlowers of every huc meet tho eye. Among these are some of the finest . mens of air plants, which are among the groatest eurivsi- ties in the floral kingdom. This tribe of Lowers are natives of the West Indies, and derive their sustenance exclusively from the atmosphere.

COWHIDING AFFRAY BETWEEN BENJAMIN WOOD AND J. 8. BRADFORD, There was considerable excitement yesterday after- noon, about 3 o'clock, at the corner of Beaver and Hano- | ver streets, growing out of an attempt at cowhiding of the person of John §. Bradford, broker, of No. 72 Beaver street, by Benj. Wood, brother of Mayor Wood. During the afternoon there were all sorts of contradic- tory rumors afloat concerning the difficulty, but the fol- | lowing account, which was gathered on the spot soon af- ter the affra: oceurrence, ‘Mhe affray took place in front of Mr. Bradford’s office. That gentleman had just stepped on the sidewalk, when Mr. Wood, accompanied by a friend, walked up to him, aydttruck him over the head and face with acowhide, intlicting a severe gash agross the nose. Before the blow could be repeated, Mr. B. sprung at his assailant and cn- vored to seize the cowhide, which wag a thick, heayy known as a “black snake.” A struggle we ensued, and a large crowd soon gathered, and sever! persons were about interfering, when, it is reported by several of those present, that Mr. Wood’s friend stepped forward, and drawing a reyolyer, threatened to shoo any one who would attempt to separate the parties. Another statement 18 to the effect that Mr. Bradford drew pon, the pistol when first at si, which fell from his hand, » trom him bystander, but itis impossi y which report is coFrect,. so contradictory are In the struggie both parties fell in the nd Were soon covercd with a thick mud, which iful inv that part of the street. ties were, however, eventually separated, aud were taken by their respective friends to neighboring saloons, where they adjusted their disordered clothes and cleaned themsayes. thie following ia MR. BRADFORD'S STATEMENT. ford was approaching his oftiee. from the opposite street, when he saw Denjamin Wood on the steps of been in expeetation of an at- his de with a revolver which be had pocket of his coat, the coat being partially bni- toned. Wood was standing on the steps, ata height some two foct above the sidewalk, having an umbrella closed in his left hand, As Mr. Bradiord eame up, Wood asked him, ‘Is your name Pradiord!"" to which the reply was, “That is my name.” s Wood at once drew from his umbrella a sort of sluag shot or short whip, with the loaded end an ineh and a hall in ameter; the other end seemed to be wrapped about his right hend. With this weapon Wood, standing above on the struck at Iradford's head, but’ the. latter, carefully wate! his untagonist’s eye, reeeived the blow on his left arm and re- treated, endeavoring at the seme time to draw his pistol with the other hand. This was retarded by the necessity of wate: ing Wood, who followed him closely tip, and of protecting his head front his murderous blows.” This he received several blows on his arm, which was severely bruised. Only one blow siruck lim elsewhere, glancing upon his nose, and red. it considerably, but hot breaking the skin. “During this in accomplice of Woot also tollowed radiord closely, ready to give Wood all necded assistance. At last Mr. Brad: ford got ont his revolver, but this was instantly knocked trom his hand, when he at once closed with Wood, nnd threw him into the gutter. At this moment the fellow who accompanied Wood came to his back, and dragged Mr. Bradford off. oth parties then at once regained thelr ter which no further blows were given on cither side. During the whole affair no person interfered except Wood's accomplice. ‘The atfair elicited considerable curiosity and talk in the and tho following communication, which appeared w York Pritune of the day previous, is said to use of the difficuity—Mr. Wood alleging that Mr. Bradford is the author of the article:— TNE LOTTERY AND POLICY BUSINESS.

When these two statutes of 1794 and 1807 were revised, in 1818, the punishment of death was awarded only for those who employed the ves- sel for auch a purpose; but the penalty for equipping or pro- paring a vessel for the slave trade was confiscation of the vessel, ifseized,and imprisonment of the party so offending. ‘The facts in this case may show that the defendant assist- ed in fitting her (the Horatio) out; and if such facts are established, the question is, in what position he con- nected with her? Ho must Ke concerned in the character of cwner, master or factor; it ts not sufficient that he hold one of those appointments, but he must be actually en- gaged in the act. Butif he assisted any person in iitting her out, then he falls within one of the provisions of the statute. Mr. Lasealia is a factor of this city, and until this particular transaction was brought to light never was so engaged o& he is here charged. It uppears that about two years ago he went into the market with another person and purchased the Horatio; he paid the money for her, and certain articles and commodities were put On board of her, whether with a design to put her in the slave trade should be judged from the facts and circumstances of the case. The facts must denote strong d tho part of the defendant. If the loading of the vessel 1 indicate that the vessel ‘was intended for the slave trade, and yet if the loading. Was adapted to an honest traffic and bears the appearance Of being susceptible of being put into a lawful trade, the "at liberty to put the more favorable construction is vessel was sent toa port (St. Paul De Loando), itself denoting the traffic in slayes, but in tho vicinity of places where such trade is carried’ on. — It did not appear that there were any more commodities on Dourd the vessel than could have been disposed of at that ort by any honest merchant; but then, again, they wero capable ot being converted into uses for the slave trade. ‘Then, as to the water—would the large quantity show a wrongfil design, or would it be reconcilable with an ssttrade? How far dees the testimony tend to show that this business was conducted under the guidance of the defendant? Some of the circumstances require expla- nation, In the first place, the vessel went into his ownership. The mere fact that Lascalla went with "joa, a foreigner, would not tend to implicate him with sroper connection with the aifair; but after this, the sel comes into his possession. An American yossel jot be owned by a foreigner. How did Lascalla take ely Did he hold itas a broker or as superin. cnt, 0 as to have employment, or was it to equip her ax he should direct, aml then let her goon her voyago? Tid he pay the money for her himself, or was it with tho ot Mr. Ejea¥ If all this appearance—the semblance ing for the purchase of the vessel—was spurious, ter how ingeniously covered up, the jury were to determine the facts. Was he acting as agent of the party owning the funds, or wi pant of the funds? Ii he went into the ce 1 the money, he would be equally responsible eftort to free his name, and if the jury believe that no other party (Vasques) went out in the vessel, and that thé title Was) really changed to his name, nen, if they did’ not find this — defence to havo exercised a positive authority in tho matter, question is whether his conduct comes within the act of 1818. The Judge read the first section of tho act, which dirceta the confiscation of a vessel fitted out as a slaver; and that every person fitting ont a vessel’ for such purpose shall, on conviction, pay a sem not more. than $6,000 nor lesa than $1,C0v, and bo imprisoned for a term not longer than seven years nor less than three, The act of 1818, which is a revision of that of1807, says the parties ame: bie should be engaged in fitting up a vessel * to be em- Vloyed”’ in the slave trade—the actof 1818 substituted anploy her,” &c., the punishment being imprison t fer a long period of years, and a large fine. ‘The jury must find that this vessel was not only got. up by the defendant as master, owner or factor, but that ho get her up to employ ber for that purpose. If thoy fornd the real facts to implicate him, they wero bound to so find their verdict and let him bear the consequences, but they wero not to suppose facts for tho purposo of impeaching him. 1 simple inquiry befare them was, whether he has rivisted the provisions of this act in fitting out the vessel tc tho purpore of the slave trade. ‘They should acqnit him if he acted as broker or agent for another, and did net know the ‘pose for which the vessel was intended. He may be amenable under another section of the act. ‘Tho jury retired at about 12 o'clock, and having been tiwo ours came into court, when the foreman said at one or two of tho jurors Wished to put this question to the Judge : ‘<1f the defendant was aware at the time of the fitting out that tho vessel was to be engaged in the wwe trade, does he come under the section of the law un- ver whieh he was indicted?” ‘he Conrt—Only in the case of his preparing her in the cxpacity of cwner, master or factor, having authority over the aud acquiesting in her use; but not if his kor wiedge was only that of a merehant or a mere out- ider. Ho may be liable te a tine of $2,000 under ano- ther section. . ‘Ihe jury then, in a few seconds, rendered a verdict of not guilty. ‘The Judge said he entirely concurred in their verdict. Dir. Tascalla was then discharged. ———_—_——_ Married. On Tuesday, June 17, the residence of the bride's jardner Spring, Mr. J. A. Vooruma to Mics V. E c both of this city. On Sunday, June 15, by the Rey.
