Mr. Michael Jennings is the proprietor of a stall or stand in one of the markets, where he daily dispenses to the good citizens of Baltimore, for value had and received, certain delicious articles, known by the name of water-melons. Upon a recent market day, a lady passing through the market, enquired of a black man in his employ the price of the melons, but none of them pleasing her, she declined making a purchase. Mr. Jennings then stepped up and used his oratory to pers-ade her that the melons were super-excellent, lie assured her they were "red meat," and as a test, "plugged" one.

It was "red meat" it is true, but the lady, on taking a bite of the plug, found that the melon was "flat, stale, and unprofitable," tasting "just like Indian meal mixed with cold water." Such an article did not suit her palate, and she turned away in disgust. Mr. Jennings, it appears, becoming incensed at this, and not having any respect for her sex or regard for the advanced stage of pregnancy in which she was, threw ihe melon at her head. By this conduct he violated an ordinance of the city, which forbids any person throwing melons about the market, and he was for that taken before a magisirate who lined him $1 62 j. The lady brought a charge of assault and battery li MILLER'S ISLAND DUCKlNbi CLUB.

An altercation took place on "Thursday night last at a negro Church in Sharp street, between ne of the night watches and a band of disorderly negroes, which resulted in the watchman's receiving a severe beating before assistance eould come to his aid.

Since then.demonstrationshave been made by collections of whites to retaliate on the blacks who frequent the church, but nothing derisive occurred until Sunday night, whon aboul 8 o'clock, a considerable mob collected at the corner of Sharp street and llarvy Alley, and drove out the congregation worshipping there. They then, increased in numbers, proceeded to the African meeting house in Sharp street, between Pratt and Lam-bard streets, and commenced an attack on the house, by throwing stones and breaking the doors and windows. Great alarm among the congregation there assembled was the consequence, and they made their exit by rushing through the doors, jumping out of the windows, Many we learn were considerably injured, but none dangerously, by the stones and jumping from the windows. By the time the police had collected in s-uflicient force to avert the disturbance, the mob had concluded their work and dispersed, so that no arrest took place. Like all other outbreaks of mob violence, the innocent in this case have been made to suffer for the acts of the guilty, even if the mob had a right to chastise or inflict punishment upon those who committed the outrage upon the watchman.

The innocent and unoffending attendants at the church, were mobbed and stoned, because, a week since, a band of graceless negroes overpower lirTHOMSONlAN INFIRMARY NOTICE The stockholders of the MARYLAND THOMSONIAN INFIRMARY," are requested to meet THIS (Tuesday) EVENING, the 28th in the public room over John I.

WILSON CORNER SOUTH AND PRATT sts. a28-2t of Canal Commissioners, in Pennsylvania, has writ ten a circular to the canal contractors of that State, on the great want of literary and moral instruction among the children of the laborers on the public against the grasping monopoly of Great Britain?" It seems that in a case tried by the United States Circuit Court at Boston, where the plaintiffs claimed of the Suffolk Insurance Company a total loss, for the schooner Harriet, seized by Louis Vernot, acting governor of the Falkland Islands, under the authority of Buenos Ayres, one point ofdefence set up was that Vernet was rightfully governor of the Falkland Islands, and had a right to order off the vessels and to seize them for disobedience, and that they were consequently lost by the plaintiff's own fault. In the report of the case, Judge Story decided that the plaintiff as entitled to recover for a total loss in the case of the Harriet, because the seal fishery at the island was a trade free, and lawful to citizens of the I'nited States, as insisted upon by the American Government.

The question is a delicate one. Important Invention. The New York Sun stales that Mr. Thomas Blanchard, well know as an eminent, successful and ingenious machinist, has produced the model of a boiler which cannot explode. It is so contrived, that when the water is reduced below a given quantity, the door through hich fuel is supplied closes, and cannot be opened until the complement of water is made up.

There is, therefore, no possibility of an explosion arising from a deficiency of water, even if the engineer is ever so much disposed for it. Mr. B. is the inventor of the famous lathe for turning gun stocks, one of which has been in operation at the Armory at Harper's Ferry. The Theatre.

Mr. Ward commences his campaign on Saturday night next, and from the preparations he has tiiade.we think it will be a glorious one. The interior of Old Holliday has had during the re-ecss a complete overhauling, and now presents an appearance that will entitle it to the character of being one of the prettiest theatres in the Uniled States. A good stock company has been procured, and arrangements have been made for the production of the greatest dramatic novelties, and the appearance of the most celebrated stars, so. that we may anticipate a rich intellectual treat during the season.

A Convert. Theeditorof theNew York Sun has become a convert to the doctrine of transmigration of souls, and he believes that Mosquitos are but the abiding places of all the bloody warriors, renowned conquerors, and merciless tyrants of the olden time Poor fellow; the very air of his sanctuary has been made their meeting place, here they revelled in all the rapacity of real existence, ever and anon regaling their various dispositions at the expense of his feelings. Absence of Mind. The last case is that of a young lady, of exquisite beauty, who was about to present a young gentleman, to whom she was partial, a rose bHt being in a state of absent mind, unconsciously presented herself. The unfortunate wight, being in the same predicament, (and she being in full bloom, and extremely sweet.) unconsciously placed her in his bosom.

We did not learn how they discovered their mistake. Whig Nominations. The Whig Convention last night unanimously nominated the following gentlemen as Candidates for the State Legislature: Senate, David Stewart. Delegates Charles II. Pitts.

We trust that the actors in this outrage may be ferreted out.nnd made to suffer the full penalty of the law. The right to mob an African church with impunity, implies the same privilege on any church in the city. The Indians on the Western Frontier. The report which we yesterday gave from a Nashville paper, is confirmed by accounts via St. Louis.

The Republican.of that city, under date of the 14th inst. states thatnn important despatch has been forwarded by Major Mason of Fort Gibson, to Gen'I. Gaines, of the Southern Division. The substance of this -communication is, that the Cherokees have built a council house, which is said to be uonsiderably larger than any heretofore erected by any tribe of Indians. They have sent messengers, with the black and red wampum, to all the tribes from the Red River to the Sacs and Foxes on the Mississippi omitting only the Kansas and Osages inviting them to meet in council at the Cherokee Council House in September next.

The noveraent is believed to be but an incipient step to further difficulties, and made with a view of enlisting and uniting all the tribes along the frontier, in such measures as may be adopted. They have proceeded with great caution and secrecy in the measure, and have endeavored to keep all their proceedings from the knowledge of their agents arid of the officers of the posts. The time proposed for holding the council is sufficiently late to admit of the emigrating Cherokees reaching their country. All the information elicited goes to confirm the opinion expressed some time ago, by General Arhutkle, of the hostile intentions of several of the tribes, though it is not believed that any movement ii intended by them until the opening of spring. General Gaines, it is added, has forwarded the despatch of Major Mason to the proper department, with a request that he may be permitted to attend the council with an armed force.

This would probably be the most effectual means to awe them into a compliance with their duty, and would effectually prevent the formation of any plans for a general and united rising. It is greatly to be desired that his request should be granted. A Horrid Rencontre. A youth, an apprentice to Mr. Sheely, carpenter, in Lleyd stroet, was very seriously injured a rencontre with a Hegro man, in Salisbury street, on Sunday night.

The National Banner, published at Houston, contains the official annunciation of the conclusion of a commercial arrangement between Texas and Great Britain, from which it appears that vessels and goods under the Texan flag, and with Texan papers, are to be admitted into the ports of the former, in the same manner as the vessels and goods of Mexico, under the scope and stipulations of the Treaty with that government, and the vessels and goods of Great P.ritain to be admitted into ports of Texas upn the basis of the snme Treaty.

Some young ladies were taken up in Boston, the other evening, for singing at a late hour at night, the song "Oft in the stilly night."
