INSULTS TO OUR FLAG BY THE BRITISH. The brig Robert, Capt. Cook, from the coast of West Africa, arrived at New York on Thurs day. She brings intelligence that the British ' courage displayed by the whites (and indeed on Steamer “ Albert’* declared war with the natives, both sides) would have furnished a theme for for minstrel’s song in the “ iron age.” Hays. '\UL his small b(ut fearless band, had LATER FROM TEXAS—GALLANT FIGHT WITH THE CAMANCHES. The New Orleans papers contain intelligence from Galveston to the 8 th and from Houston to the 7th iast. The most interesting news by this arrival is an account of a desperate hand to hand con flict between a body of fourteen men under Col. Hays, and a force of over seventy-five Caman- ches, Wacoes, and Mexicans. The daring ther of the little girls as a common laborer; is about thirty-five years of age, appears to be an Irishman, and has several names. He was said to be a Mormon.” ol the river Nunes, aod blockaded that stream from the 24ih of January to the I2th of Febru ary, allowing neither vessels nor bojats of any flag to pass up. We learn from the Herald that on the 7th February the supercargo of the Robert went on board the steamer to ascertain about the block ade. The person in charge, an acting Lieut, do command, said that he had thought proper to blockade the river and forbid the supercargo •of ihe Roberts from trading with the natives. The said commander ascertained there were two men belonging to the Robert which were •British subjects—be therefore demanded them end was refused. He said he would take them by force. One of the men being in the boat with the supercargo at the time, ivas detained ■on board the steamer, with an order to send the other man immediately or he should board the Robert, haul down the flag and take him by force. To prevent any trouble the man was sent on board the steamer. The two men were shipped on board the Robert in New York as seamen ’ The Elizabeth, of Salem, was blockaded in the river from the 24th of January to the 12th of February The Robert and Oriental were detained two weeks and then were obliged to leave the river on account of the war against the natives and the blockade, which had materially injured th voyages of five American vessels which trade to that river. The British brig of war Ferrit, at the lee ward, fired into two American vessels on the coast. Capt. J. was seven months on the coast trading from Gambia to the Rio Ponzas. H saw only one man-of-war, the Porpoise. She came to the Gambia in January, stopped eigh teen hours, then proceeded to the leeward.— She passed the Nunes at the time of the war, but without stopping The American merchant vessels suffer more from the insults of the British squadon than by the natives on the coast .— Pottsville Emp. TORNADO AT CHAMBERSBURG, PA We learn from the Philadelphia papers that •on. the 2ls{ inst., about 3 o’clock, P. M., Cham hersburg was visited by a most terrific storm from the north-west, which lasted a few min •utes, causing frightful destruction. The large.five story paper mill on the Falling Spring and Conococheague creek, the property, of Dr. S. D. Culbertson, was entirely destroyed, and now lies a mass of ruins. There were nineteen persons in the mill at (he time it fell, all were taken out alive, but some of them so dreadfully injured as to leave no hope of their recovery. Their names are: Dr. S. D. Cul bertson, Edward.Culbertson, John Culbertson, (sons of Dr. C.) Samuel Reid, ----- Reid, (sons of E. D. Reid and grandsons of Dr. C.,) Philip Craver, Michael Craver, Samuel Fry, Lewis Doebler, Jacob Mellinger, Peter Henneberger, Edward McClintick. Phoebe Taylor, Catharine Kerr, _ Caroline Monahon, Mrs. Crossgrove, Mrs. Willis, Mrs. Henneberger, Betsey Wil- . The mill ie or.' hundred and fifty feet long, fifty feat wi d, aud five stories high. Dr. E. Culbertson is very severely injured — When he was first discovered he was hanging by the feet, which had been caught among the timber. It was a considerable time before he could be taken from his perilous situation, on account of the difficulty of getting to him, and the heavy weight of timber resting on his feet. He screamed frightfully, and begged of those around him to cut off his legs, and save him from the horrible agony he was suffering; bis ankle bone is fractured, and he is bruised very much, but not dangerously. John Culbertson, another son of Dr. C., was considerably injured. \Another son of Mr. Reid, quite a child, had his skull fractured. He was got o.it also by the females. It was heart sickening to hear the poor child beg of the doctors to save Lis life. Ilis case is considered bad. Philip Craver and Michael Craver, (Ger mans,) father and son, are both very seriously injured—the father dangerously—his shoulder has been fractured, and some of his ribs, also, besides severe bodily injuries. The son was discovered hanging by the hand, which had been caught by the timber, he suffered dreadful ly—the flesh of his hand very much torn. Ilis head was badly hurt, either by his fall ing or by the timber fulling on him: he suffered dreadfully, as it was a consitferable time before he could be got down. He hung, as did also Dr. E. Culbertson, above the stone wall which forms the first story of the mill at the west end. He tried hard to get his knife out of his pocket to cut off the hand by which he hung. He is not considered dangerous. Samuel Fry was slightly iojured. He bled a good deal about the head. The first four of the females on the list es sayed injury, except that Miss Kerr got into the creek and would have been drowned but for the assistance of a man, who jumped in and rescued her. Mrs. Willis has been very seri ously hurt. It was thought she would have been dead before this time. She is hurt in the breast. Mrs. Hcnoeberger was severely cut and bruis ed, but she is not at all dangerously hurt. Bet sy Willard, like Mrs. Willis, got out safe, but returned to save John Culbertson, who was screaming dreadfully. She succeeded in getting him out, but was knocked down several times by timber falling en her in the heroic-act. She said she could not listen to his screams for help without as sisting him—her arms were quite wet with the hoy’s blood. The roof was carried entirely off from a Louse on “ New England” hill, and thrown into the lot a considerable distance, probably fifty boen high up on the Piei-denalia to ascertain whether there was any encampment of Indians in that section, and was retureiag after an un successful search, when at a point nearly equi distant from Bexar, Gonzales and Austin, the guard stationed io his rear, discovered about ten Indians following, and reported the fact to Hays. They were seen about the same time, who fell back into some brush. The Texans saddled up and advanced, when three or four Indians made their appeatance, and as if for the first time perceiving the white men, fled with great precipitation and apparent alarm. Hays, however, was too old an “ Indian fighter” to be caught, aud made no effort at pursuit. As soon as the Indians saw this stratagem was of no avail, they came out of the timber, and displayed their whole force in line, some 75 in number. Greatly superior as was their force, Hays at once determined to attack them. His men were highly disciplined, of tried cour age, their horses well broke, and the average number of shots to each man, about eight.— The face of the country in that section is bro ken and rocky, with a growth of scrubby live oaks and black jacks, with an undergrowth of brush. A short distance in the rear of the In dians was a steep hill, from the summit of which stretched a prairie plain, its sides rocky and covered with brushwood. The Texans advanced slowly, the Indians falling back until they crowned the hill, where they dismounted, formed in line, and secure in the strength of their position, called to Hays as he approached, “ charge, charge.” When the Texans reached the foot of the hill, from the uature of the ground they were concealed from the view of A F e a r f u l A c c i d e n t a n d N arrow E s c a p e —On the 10 th itaslant, at 6 o’clock P. M. an extra coach left Middlebury, Vt., for Bur lington, (the regular coach having left three 'hours previous,) containing six persons, two la dies from BurlingtonTXMrs. Whitney and daugh ter,) a gentleman and lady from Boston, and the j R e v . Mr. Ballard, Pastor of the irst Baptist Church.’io Lowell, at:,! his 9..u. . It had Been | raining some during the day, but at (he time the coach left Middlebury the rain had entirely ceased. In a short time, however, the rain be gan to descend again furiously. The Burling ton Free Press says that “ it was the severest and most violent rain which has occurred here for fourteen years. It rained in torrents for two hours, floodiDg the streets, and carrying away bridges and huge masses of earth almost in an instant.” When the coach had arrived within two miles of Burlington, one o’clock at night, where a small creek empties into Lake Cham plain, the bridge over the creek having been carried away by-the sudden rise of water, the coach, passengers and horses, were precipitated from the abutment ol the bridge, twenty feet high, into the stream, where the water was several feet deep and running with great vio lence. Two of the horses were instantly kil led. The Rev. Mr. B. immediately sprung from the coach with his son, a lad, and swam to the opposite shore. He plunged again into the stream and made for the_cqr'-It»hTorrhich had lodged against a large log which was confined near the bridge, and rescued the daughter of Mrs. VVhitney, and the gentleman and lady from their perilous situation. He than returned and mounted the fog, and endeavored to save Mrs. Whitney, but failed in the attempt, the log breaking away, was instantly carried down the stream, and the night being quite dark, disena bled him to ascertain her just position, there fore her fate was to find a watery grave. Find ing it was out of his power to render her any assistance, and seeing that his own life was in imminent danger, he leaped from the log into the stream, and with great difficulty reached A . V.

At that point Hays wheeled his little band at full speed some two or three hun dred yards around the base of the hill, ascended it, gained the level ground above, and made his appearance at full charge on the flank of the Indians, in the direction in which they little expected to see him. They ?t once leaped upon their horses, and before they were well prepared'to receive him, he was in their midst. The Indian line gave way when the shock of the charge struck it, but wheeling on each flank they charged (he Texans with wild yells, se cure of their prey, since on horseback they deem themselves invincible. But never before had they encountered any thing like discipline.— Back to back the Texans received them, and the close and deadly fire of their pistols and yagers emptied many a saddle. Thus, hand to hand, the fight lasted some fifteen minutes, the Indians using their spears and arrows, and the Texans their “ repeating” pistols. Scarcely a man of the little band that was not grazed by spear or arrow; their gun stocks, knife-handles, and saddles perforated in many places. Walk er and Gillespie, two of Hays’ band, were peared through and through, and several were wounded. It was too hot to last. The Indians fell back, closely pressed by the whites. Again and again were they rallied by their chief, only gain to be routed, losing in each w e l l contest ed contested conflict, some of their bravest warriors. The pursuit had now been pressed for nearly two miles. The Texans had loaded their arms in detail, some halting for that purpose, whilst he others’ hung on the rear of the enemy.— The Indians had made their last rally, reduced in number to about thirty-five, and were driven back with great loss, when the voice of their chief again rose high, exhorting them to turn •nnce more, while he dashed forwards and back wards among his men, to bring them to the charge. The Texans had exhausted nearly all their shots. Hays called out to know which of the men had a loaded gun. Gillespie rode forward and answered that he was charged.— Dismount and shoot the chief,” was the order. At the distance of thirty steps the ball did its office. Madly dashing a few yards, the gallant Indian fell to rise no more, and, in wild affright at the loss of their leader, the others scattered in every direction in the brush wood. Thus ended a'battle, which is almost without parallel in border warfare. It was a “ fair stand up fight,” and the Indians never evinced greater bravery. Twenty-three of them were counted dead upon the field, and as many more are known to have been wounded, many of them mortally. No shot was fired at a distance of more than eight or ten steps, with the excep tion of the last—a fact which shows the descrip tion of the description ol the conflict. Of Col. Hays’ men, Peter Fox was shot through the head and died on the spot; R. A. Gillespie aod amuel Walker were dangerously wounded with lances, the latter supposed to be mortally. He was one of the Mier prisoners who escaped last year from Tacubaya, near Mexico. Col. Hays was at Washington at last dates. He is confident that there were several Mexicans among the Indians .— True Sun . | the shore, much exhausted. somewhat bruised and very The driver escaped unhurt.

May 28, 1844. 18 L y n c h i n g — A case of lynching occurred about three weeeks ago in Panola, Mississippi. A laborer, in the employ of a clergyman in Holmes county, stole from his employer, a ne gro man, two or three horses, and his two daugh ters, one about 13 and the other 10 years of age. He was caught near Helena, on his way to Ar kansas or Texas, where he and the -negro in tended to make wives of their little captives— By terrible threats they had prevented the young girls from giving any alarms. The rest of the tale is thus told by the Memphis Enquirer: “ After the two fiends'were taken they were handcuffed and brought back to Panola. The citizens hearing the circumstances, and fearing that they might in some way escape the punish ment due their crimes, organized themselves crimes, ! into an extra-judicial tribunal, and appointed a y r d , . „„d the gable ends also thrown down— ' •iur5,.of 12 ™e° ' wh? \> be f«- x 15 - - * verely cowhtded—the sentence to be executed one upon the other.

Emp. done, the negro receiving thirty-five and the white man iwlrnty-five lashes, well laid on with a cowhide. The sentence was for each to re ceive fifty lashes, but they were so gashed with the number above stated that the popular mer cy remitted the balance. They were then han ded over to their guard, to be taken back to Holmes. Our informant heard io Panola that the white man had been whipped to death by the citizens of that county, but is not certain that his information is correct. No violence had been offered to the little girls while in cap tivity. From sortie conversation overheard by them, it is believed that their escape from out- Miss Aune, daughter of Timothy Jayne, of rage worse than death was attributed to the Westmoreland couuty, Penn., while returning negro, as he was heard to tell the white man home od horseback from a visit to a sick friend, that “ if he attempted it before they reached was precipitated into the caual by the falling of where they were going to, he would kill hitn. ’ her u.ajse, and-drowned, m , Th? while man had been employed by the fa- Allen of Can'on. . ^'ho testified in a recent court m that pia'ce, to an attempt made to ravish her person by Alsou liigley. has been committed to jail for perjury.
