SERIOUS RENCONTRE AT RICHMOND, VA.We have accounts of a reneontre of an unfortunate and fatal character, stated to have occurred at Richmond, on Wednesday morning, between John H.

Pleasants, editor of the Star, and Thomas Ritchie, jr. editor of the Enquirer at that place. The accounts are not very satisfactorily confirmed, and we hope that they may not be correct. The substance of the affair, as reported, is, that the old personal fued which has 30 long existed between these two gentlemen, led to a hostile meeting on the Manchester side of the river, with pistols, short swords, and sword canes. The agreement was that they should take their stations two hundred yards apart, to fire approaching.

and cut as they pleased. Mr. Pleasants' wound was across the abdomen with a bowie knife, and Mr. Ritchie's across the face. The latter was slightly wounded and the tormer dangerously.

Mr. Ritchie is said to have arrived in Washington the same evening, and is now at his father's house. If this version of the rencontre is correct, it may without fear of contradiction, be deemed the most murderous and bloody affair that ever occurred among civilized men. Pleasants has since died.

-The advices from Mexico add but little to our previous mation.

Letters are stated to have been received from Mazatlan, which represent that Commodore Sloat had threatened, in Mexico had declared war against the case United States, to seize all the Mexican vessels, arm them, and with them to render the blockade of all the Mexican ports effective, while his own forces would be left to operate upon some points of more interest upon the coast. There were English and French maritime forces also at Matzatlin, in order, it is asserted, to watch American movements, and if necessary, to protect the property of their countrymen. A letter dated at Havanna, on the 10th instant, says that Santa Anna is now openly preparing to return to Mexico, though he does not intend to go this month.

DREADFUL STEAMBOAT ACCIDENT. --Capt. Perry, of the steamboat Brunette, which arrived at New Orleans on the 17th from St. Louis, reports that the steamboat Saladin, from Nashville, in passing down the river, came 1 in collision on the evening of the 12th with the steamboat Congress, going up, near Pilcher's Point. Fifteen persons were killed by the collision, or subsequently drowned, but their names are not given.

The cabin of the Congress separated from the hull and was towed down to Lake Providence by the Saladin. The hull of the Congress immediately sunk. It is farther stated that in consequence of the collision, the connecting pipes of the engine of the Congress burst and severely scalded several of her passengers. HAvE You read the Step- Mother?" Gish has it for sale. To the Public.

An article has appeared in the newspapers of this county, called a "Remonstrance against granting a Charter to the Odd Fellows," and, it is presumed, that Circulars containing the printed Remonstrance have been addressed to a certain portion of the leading politicians of every township, with a request that they would personally interest themselves in procuring signatures--handbills containing the Remonstrance, in large capitals, are hung up in every public place; and riders (employed by those whom it may concern) are traversing the county, in every direction, to prejudice the public mind, and create, if possible, a whirlwind of Popular Indignation. As no pains are to be spared in attaining some end, it is conjectured that the object is not to defeat the application for a Charter, but to create a stock of available capital that may come in play in the ensuing political campaign. If some sinister and corrupt end be not in view, a simple and plain statement of the objections to the charter would have been suffi-1 cient. But the Remonstrance alluded to is written in the most objectionable style; it makes a statement of facts known to be false, and which have no existence save in the disordered imagination of a political enthusiast: it attacks private character, and labors to demonstrate that the petitioners for the Charter, who number the oldest and most respectable inhabitants of the city, and who in a series of years have established characters for Honesty, Virtue and Probity, are 110 better than midnight assassins or cowardly ruffians, who are lying in wait to entrap the ignorant and unsuspecting. A simple statement of facts will place the application for the charter inita proper light.

The Odd Fellows' Society of this city, has existed for four years; being a Beneficial Society, and each member paying into its treasury a weekly sum of money, which, in times of distress and bodily affliction, entitles him to a weekly allowance; it has now at its disposal an amount of money for the purpose of a safe and permanent investment. Deeming stock securities at this time uncertain, and at all times too fluctuating, it has already purchased a lot of ground on which it is proposed to erect a large and spacious building, which, while it gives employment to a number of mechanics, and promotes activity of business, will at the same time, adorn and beautify our city. To do this safely, and for the benefit of the contractors, the workmen and the owners, there must be some one competent to contract; and the Society has applied to the Court of Common Pleas, of this county, under the Act of Assembly for a Charter or Act of Incorporation, by which it can buy and sell and hold real estate, and can enter into contracts that can be enforced against the Society by those who are employed by it. The Conestogo Steam Mills has applied to the Legislature for the same thing; the Odd Fellows' Society applies to the Court of the County, where it is located--where its members reside, and where they are best known. It has presented to the Court a copy of its Constitution and By-Laws: they are filed in the office of the Prothono.

tary of the Court, and are open for the inspection of the world. It is alleged by the author of the Remonstrance, that it is a Secret Society--it its mode of admitting applicants, and must necessarily be so to avoid imposition; for being in connection with similar societies in other parts of our land, At is enabled to expose those who, by virtue of being members of other societies, on that account, demand charitable assistance in times of distress. The charge that it is a Masonic Institution, and is in connection with Masonry, is false, and known to be -it bas not one feature in common with Free Masonry. It is useless to answer the other charges in the Remonstrance--they are equally false and calumnious, and made evidently for the purpose of creating an excitement. The Charter is nominally the object of the attack, the real design of the whole document is the accumulation of political capital.

Were it not so, why resort to a Remonstrance so studiously and carefully composed? Why have it printed? Why have circulars printed containing a copy of it Why have it so widely circulated? Why enjoin upon certain persons to be active in procuring signatures? Why is the triumphant exclamation made that ten thousand signers will be obtained to the Remonstrance, and all of them legal vo. ters? Why this unparalleled effort to attain a triding and insignificant result? Is a faction down amid the changes of politics that wishes to be uppermost? Is a disappointed politician on his back that wishes to be on his feet! Pause and reflect, citizens of Lancaster county. Should the Charter be defeated, it will affect only those who expect to be, and always are, benefitted by the erection of large and spacious buildings--the working ing men of the city and county; but should the real object of the author of the Remonstrance be attained, he will laugh in derision at the successful stratagem employed to promote his own long lost as. cendancy. It is therefore earnestly requested that every citizen of Lancaster county will read the Remonstrance when it is presented to him for signature--that he will mark the language used, and the style in which it is written--that he will examine what evidence there is of the facts stated, and that he will pause before he certifies.

by his signature to the truth of the allegations therein contained. And above all, let him ask himself whether the petitioners for the Charter, with most of whom he probaby is acquainted, are the cold-blooded villians, and the blasphemous wretches which in the Remonstrace they are repre sented to be. It is presumed that many will sign the Remonstrances before reading a word of it, and under that impression, it is believed, the author of it penned the tissue of falsehood, calumny and malice: The object of this communication is to place the application for a Charter before BUSINESS MATTERS.

BRADDEE, THE MAIL ROB-We learn from the Commercial Journal, of Pittsburg, that on Friday night this notorious, and, in many respects, remarkable man, died in his cell, in the Western Penitentiary. He was convicted of robbing the mail, and imprisoned, it will be remembered, in 1841, pursuant to sentence by Judge Baldwin for ten years.

The Journal says: Shortly after his incarceration, he conceived the idea of procuring his liberation by simulating a decline of health. For this purpose he would prick his gums with the awls, which were supplied to him in the vocation he had chosen, that of shoemaker, and having saturated his towel with blood, was always prepared for the stated visit of physician or chaplain, with this evidence of a dangerous hemorrhage from the lungs, to which he was always careful to add a difficult and painful respiration. His physician was able, sometimes, to engage the suffering doctor in conversations, in which he would become sufficiently animated to forget his painful breathing, but, on the instant that he would recollect himself, the difficulty would return. These practices it is believed, brought on the disease, which terminated his life, and he last of a pulmonary affection. Until two weeks before his death his disease had not assumed a formidable type but then he began to sink rapidly.

Up'to this period he had steadily and vehemently asserted his innocence of the crimes imhim, but so soon as he became convinced that his recovery was impossible, he confessed his guilt, and. although we are restrained by prudential considerations, from farther allusion to this point, we may venture ao add, in his confession he has implicated several persons who had not been suspecting of participating in his crintes, It is known that Braddee's wife, who clung to him during his and suggested by her presence and signs of affliction, that beautiful apostrophe to love in anguish, with which Mr. Biddle, in BradI dee's defence, electrified the crowded and prisonment. married another was during, made Braddee's acquainted ima ditory, had been unfaithful to her with the fact, and, for the five years he was in confinement he was fond of an opof talking about his "wife and children." He spoke of them in terms of warm affection, and undoubtedly his desire to recover his liberty was stimulated by attachment to them; even after he hecame aware that he must soon die in a barn, to the end, that he might not die a prisoner. But so soon as he learned the conduct of his wife, he instantly.

ceased to wish for freedom. It was the final blow to the poor convict; the unexpected thrust like that which extorted the memorable et tu Brute, commanding surrender; and, poor fellow, he gave up at once. He never after mentioned wife or child, or desired to remove beyond the limits of his cell.The name of his wife was avoided with an iron will, although for the previous years of his confinement, it had been a pleasant 1 and hopeful theme. A question was a long time existing whether Braddee could read or write. In his last illness it was satisfactorily, ascertained that he could do ither, although every effort in the earlier of his prisonment to determine the question was unsuccessful.

Braddee died a penitent, it is believed. If he was a very great villian, he seems to have had, nevertheless, room in his heart for some affectionate impulses; and we cannot record his fidelity wife without feeling a regret that she proved unfaithful. A CASE of libel, against the editors of the New York Express, has been tried at Rochester. The libel was contained in a letter from a correspondent in that city, in which it was stated that the plaintiff, Sophia Murdock, (who had some time previous recovered a verdict of 83,000 against the Rev. Washington Van Zandt, for seduction) was again enciento.

'The ver. diet had not been rendered at the last account. ONE HUNDRED PRINTERS at New Orleans signed an address to the members of the Louisiana Legislature now in session in that city, setting forth several reasons why the proprietors of the "Jeffersonian" paper should not he elected to the office of State Printer. Whereupon, one of the proprietors. of the Jeffersonian has sued the said one hundred printers for slander.
