RICHMOND, VA.«Monday Morning, Aagaat 16, 1852.W Perrons abroad from the city car have the

Dispatch sent to them for any periodof time theymay desire, by leaving theirorders and paying thecash for the time spec!tied.

ty We fare , yesterday, an account, takenfrom a letter to the New Vork Tribune, of arecent affray at Newport between the guestsand waiters of the Ocean House. The accountturna out to be so far incorrect that the wait-era(>ccording lo ihe Herald) were not Irish-men, as slated by the Tribune's correspon-dent. b"' negroes, which Ihe mal-let' ienlold.

It will be recollected that such an alterca-tion took place, two or three years ago, atCape May, wl.jrh it was thought, at the lime,fcrould effectually deter Southern gentlemenfrom resorting to that watering place ever af-terwards. And yet crowds have flocked thiiherfrom the South, during the present season,having quite forgoiten, it would seem, an out-rage ofsuch comparative! v recent occurrence,/hefact is that Southern people do wrong togo, for relaialinnj whefc the usages of societyBanclimi ttnV insult that may be visited uponthemky the free blacks. Every where, Northt)f the Potomac,Cuffee assumes a port and lone

so insufferably insolent, that no Southern mnncan stand it, manifested towards himself.Admitted to n theoretical equality with thewhites, he actually lords it over them, in someplaces, with nn air of superiority. He pushesthe white pedestrian from the side walk intoIhe mud. He attends, in Boston and else-where, many of the churches, and Beats him-self in the best pews. He takes the most com-fortable place in the railroad cars, to the ex

elusion of ladies. Such is Cuffee when al-lowed the privilege of citizenship. He movesabout en grand seigneur, llnurishing like thegreen bay tree, but diffusing around him a lessagreeable odor. Now, if our Northern friendslike this deportment on the part of Cuffee, letthem fraternise with him freely. For our-selves, we do not. Though it may argue asomewhat fastidious taste, we like not in Au-gust to have Cuffee "betwixt the wind and our

nobility " And therefore it is that we preferto remain in a region where the relation whichnature h rself has fixed between the white andthe black races is properly observed.

If Southerners would reflect upon the utter-ly defenceless position in which they placethemselves at Northern watering places, weare sure they would not flock thither so gre-gariously. In this instance, consider whatwould have been the result if Mr. Verger hudshot down and killed one of these insolentblack scoundrels?as, beyond a question, hewould have been fully justified in doing.?Why, he would have been instantly arrestedby the civil authoiity and sent to jail lo awaithis trial. No legal contrivance could havesucceeded to admit him to bail. And when thetrial came on, he would most probably have

* been condemned, by an anti slavery Court andJury, to be hung. This is an awkward thingto consider, no doubt, but what method doesany one think of, for escaping it t Publicopinion, which always overawes the Courts, ison the side of the negro, public sympathy,which inevitably sways the jury, would be ex-ercised in his behalf, and what hope might beindulged, think you,of pardon from a YankeeGovernor? It would be well for Southerngentlemen to think of these unpleasant thingsbefore placing themselves in a position inwhich they may any duy be called upon torebuke negro impertinence with the horse-whip, and at last lo repel negro violence withthe pistol.

The South itself contains a section of coun-try which, for summer travel, and for theresto-ration of jaded faculties, cannotbe equalled inits attractions and advantages in the world.?lu the mountains of our own State we havemedicine! springs and baths which would havemade old Sir Fruncis Head?if he had resortedto them instead of the Brunnens of Nassau?beside himself with delight. More than that,we have scenery of the most enchanting de-scription?ranges of mountains not, indeed,piled up like summer clouds, in Alpine mag-nificence, but abounding in the loveliest land-scapes that ever bewitched a painter's vision,where the atmosphere braces the frame withyouthful vigor, and cleurs the head for enjoy-ment. Cannot our brethren of the sunnySouth find here " ample room and vergeenough" for summerrambling, that they mustgo off annually to Newport, to Saratoga, toSharon, and other northern watering places?

At all event0,

we have one suggestion tomake before dismissing the subject. It is this.Every body knows the northern hotel keepersderive, bv far, the greater part?perhaps foui-fjfth?of their summer revenue from Southerntourists, and that if this were withdrawn, most

of their establishments would have to be closed.Every body knows, too, that the pocket-nerveis the most sensitive of all the Yankee organsof sensation. Now, if southerners are so fondof northern excursions that they cannot debar themselves forever from loitering in NewEngland, let them try the experiment of stay-ing away en masse from that region for twoor three years, with a view of findiug out whe.ther it might not improve the tone ol societythere as to theproper position of CufTee. Perhaps it might. Let it be tried.

FIGHT WITH INDIANS?TERRIBLEBUFFERINGS.

[Fromthe 8t Louto Republican. Aug. 3 ]Bast a Ft, June 27ih, 1852.

The El Paso mail arrived here ihn afternoonat 3 o'clock, and before I had time to readHenry Granger'* letter, the other came in fromIndependence. I will first briefly state all ofHenry's Indian fight. Dave Kinehart wassent to Corilitias with a stock of goods,amounting $4000. He sold the whole for$2000, and ran away with it. As soon asHenry heard this, he left after him in hotpursuit?caught him, and on returning, atabout forty-five miles this side of Corilitias,four of them (the whole party] were attackedby a band of sixty Gila Apaches. They suc-ceeded in taking possession of a mound closeby. In the first charge of the Indians, themules were all taken but one, and Grand Jeandesperately wounded in the thigh, while en-deavoring to save his riding mules. He feli,and the other three men run out and fetched,or dragged him up to the top of the mound be-fore the Indians could scalp him alive. In(loin? thi«, twoof'h<* men we e badlv wounded,the Indians using eiugs lusteud of balls. -Night coming on, the Indians retired out o jgun shot of the mound, and built fites all

around this little band of truly courageousmen. They, nil wounded but one. spent the

night in fesrtb 1 anxiety and constant watch-

fU'wHh morning's dawn, hostility on the part ofthe red devils was recommenced with activeand vigorous charges. At every charge, theymet with a deadly and well directed fire fromthis little band. On the second charge, they

three fall dead and two badly wounded.?On the third clmrgo tbcv ;up the moundwithin pistol range, and ilien they deult deathto them with Colt's revolvers. At this junc-ture, they fled to some distance, still watchingthem, aiid with great coolness, commencedeating the provisions and drinking the waterbelonging to this little band on the mound.?About 3 P. M., the Indians again commenced,and with deteimined ambition to wipe themout, (in Indian parlance.) 'I'hey made achargein several places. In the meantime, our he-roes had piled up rocks that were handy by,ami foru ed a broken kind of breastwoik onone side of the mound, and were now in wait,their range and thirst having made them despe-rate. At the fourth charge, the party usedtheir revolvers as before, with terrible effect.?Still the devils persisted, until they, in utterconsternation fled, not knowinghow they couldfire so many times, and evidently flora onepiece. In the filth charge, the man not wounded (by name Mr. Daily,) had his clothing,evento the soles of his shoes, shot and riddled byslugs, but in no wise injured except by con-cussion ; the other three also were, in this fix.Henry, at this charge, received a slug in hisleft leg, in front, direct on his porte-monnaie,which was at the time filled with doubloonsand silver to the amount of $400. This savedhis leg from being broken, but the concussionwas so great as to cripple him completely.

The Indians again retired, and again kindledtheir fires, evidently intended as a decoy, forthis was done and the sun yet an hour and ahalf high. In this movement they were out-generaled. By some means they got a log orstick of wood and dressed it up in a coat, pantsand hat, and then limping and endeavoring toget along made a demonstration towards theIndians. At once they charged onthem, firing;down dropped the dressed lug, and in themeantime awav went Daily on the only mulein camp, (slightly wounded at thut,) for Carri-sal for assistance; and before the Indians couldget back to their camp and make ready to fol-low Daily in pursuit, he was some distance off;all this time the three wounded ones pouring itinto them with their rifles. Gra.;d Jean's riflewas a Swiss one, and carried au ounce and ahalf bull at leust one thousand yards.

Night set in and put an end to hostilities.?But the same ordeal of constant guard had tobe gone over with. Toe three men, fatiguedand wcrn down with want of water and provi-sions, their thirst became so great that they hadrecourse to powder eating, to allay their ex-treme dilemma. Then the party, suffering themost excruciating pains of thirst, betook theirurine. This of course aggravated the case.

At 11 I'. M., Henry tm.de up his mind toreach Cariisal or perish. And with this deter-mination lie set out, limping, and dragging hiswounded leg after him; the other two, it seems,left soon alter, and made their escape. GrandJean, after traveling some distance, felt hiswound commence bleeding afresh ; and hesays he was completely lost, and knowing wellhis situation, he consigned his soul to his ma-ker. and fell asleep, as he thought, but he hadfainted. The other three reached Carrisa ,

and soon found that Grand Jean was missing.At thir-, Daily offered three hundred dollars toa party of Mexicans lo go and bring hiui in,dead or alive.

A party of seventeen started after him; foundhim insensible about six miles off the road, andbrought him. Returning consciousness in-duced him to believe all was a dream. He soonrecovered far enough to ascertain how lie wassaved.

Soon the others ptoceeded an their journeyto El Paso, leaving him to ihe care of his sal-vators. He agreed to pay them the three hun-dred dollars, but they, the scoundrels, put himin prison and threatened him with death, andin this way extorted from him the sum of fivehundred and twenty-five dollars ; and not sat-isfied with this, stole all the moveable propertyhe hud, and then sturted him .off out of theirtown, still weak from the immense loss ofblood occasioned by the wound in his thigh.?He met his boon and courageous companionDaily with a carriage, in which were the twoother wounded men. and he, with the others,were soon in El Paso. He was five dayswithout drinking a drop of water or eating amorsel of pi ovisions, desperately wounded atthat.

He is now safe in the Paso, but very farfrom being well, and is in quite a critical situ-ation. It will be some time before he can suf-ficiently recover his strength to travel. Assoon as he is able he will be up, and then II will immediately embark for Kmsas and St.Louis. Jeanerett or myself will go dovta bythe mail to the Paso.

Disinfecting L*mp.?A note from a rnedi*cal friend reminds us of a beautiful, simple,economical apparatus, for overcoming badodors and purifying uny apartment where theair is loaded with noxiousmaterials. A discrip-tioii of it has already appeared, but the refer-ence, in the note alluded to, has unfortunatelybeen mislaid. Ihe whole matter however, issimply this, Take one ofany of the variouskinds of glass lamps?for burning canipfaene.for example?and till it with chloric ether, andlight the wick. In a few minutes the objectwill be accomplished In dissecting rooms,in the damp, deep vaults, where vegetables aresometimes stored, or where drains allow thetscape of offensive gases, in out buildiugs andin short, in any spot where it is desirable topurify the atmosphere, burn one ol these lumps.One tube, charged with u wick, is quite sutficient. This suggestion is really worth remeinbering for the comfort of a sick room, becauseit is easily accomplished, agreeable, and moreeconomical for purifying then anv process nowknown.?Huston Medical and Surgical Jour-nal.

Southern Litkbarv Messenger?The Augustnumber of this ably edited and influential Southernjournal,as we have already noted, lies onour table.A cursory glance at its contentsinforms us that inno wise are theyinferior to those of any precedingnumber. A continuation of "notes and commen-taries on a voyage to China" affords much matter,of an interesting historical and g ographical char-acter. The article contains valuable commercialstatistics «f Brazil.

"The storming of Winchester jail in 1768," written by Pen Engleton. is a spirited sketch cf a seriesentitled "Chronicles of the Valley of Virginia."?Every Virginian will read them with pleasure.

Some "reflections suggested by the death andcharacter of Henry Clay," one remarkably clear,terse, and appropriate. But the able, elaborate,and profound reviews of lectures on the "Eviden-ces of Christianity," delivered at the University ofVirginia, in 1850-51, is the chief feature of thisnumber. The evidences of our faith are developedbyit in a masterly manner.

A colonization memorial, sketches of masterscenesand varied and excellent poetryand smallerarticles, comprise the remainder of the contents.

Improvement of 26th Street.?A portion ofthe citizens of Church Hill met at Springfield HallFriday evening last for the purpose of adoptingmeasures for the improvementand opening of 26thstreet.

The followinggentlemen were constituted the committee : HughRileigh, William A. Wright and Thomas H. Fowler.Thework will be commenced at once. We rejoiceto sec a scheme of such vital importance to thepro-perty holders of Church and Union Hills at lengthset in motion. A good road connecting the twohills, and passing near Temperance Hall, has longbeen needed, and undur tha auspices of the enter-prizingand public spirited gentlemen composingthe eommittae who have charge of the improvement, we can safely say that the road teill be con-

structed. These gentlemen will find their rewardin the enhanced valu° of their property, and in theincreased growthof their aheady populuus neigh-borhood.

Says Mr. Fabius Lawson: '? Mr. Pratt has takenfour Likenesses of me, all of which were not onlysatisfactory to me, but have been said by all to beexact. Theone to-day,being the fifth, is rather bet-ter than those taken before."

Says Mr. Hurley,of Prince Edward : ''Mr. Prattis the only artist that has ever taken a good Likenessof me,the eyes in particular."

St ys Mr. J. A. Winston : "Mr. Pratt Has this daytaken three Pictures of me, which 1 think perfect asany I ever saw."

Says Mr. Sawyer: "The five Likenesses takenof me by Mr Pratt to-day I consider first rate."
