THE FAT M OF THBSBS8IA

To the Editor ^e ^ j :
In your . edition of Tuesday, you
have an article concerning ,;tfre
daughter of Aaron Barr, she was, in*
deed, the good angel of that mis-
guided ' man, 4nd to James Partonr
we owe our knowledge of her sw^eft)
and lovely character. There is' a
mystery connected with her disap*
pearanoe, and, as you say, "the ves-
sel never reached its destination;
was never heard from after leaving
Charleston harbor," With your
mission, I will tell you whst I know
of the matter. What I am about to
relate may be traditionary in £ de-
gree, bat still may possess a peculiar
interest fo the reader. It was un*
derstood, at the time, that tbe caaee
of Theodosia's coming North to her
father was because of the differences
between herself <and husband re-
garding Burr. Theodosia defended
her father's actions, while Governor
Alston denounced them. This was
the cause of a separation. Theo
dosia embarked in a vessel for New
York, in the care of a Mr. Gray, a
worthy Soatb Carolinian. She took
two of her ohiidren with her, also
a large quantity of family plate.
Tidings of her departure , reached
New York, and he* arrival was' anx-
iously looked for by tbe old man.
But, alas, she never came. The be-
reaved father gave her op as dead;
whether tbe vessel foundered at sea,
or what happened, they never knew.
At this time tbe great«grand father,
Phillip Freneau, visited Burr As he
entered the office Burr met bim, and.
grasping his bands!, said, "Freneau, I
know what you came for; I have re
oeived no tidings; I am deso'ate I"
As be spoke tbe tears gushed
from bis eyes and be cried like a
child. Freneau tried to re-assure
him, but to no effect; tbe conviction
that she was lost to him could riot
be shaken. Touched by the grief
pf the wretched father, Freneau af-
terwards sent him a poem entitled
"Tbeodcsia in the Morning Star,''
which was published in one of the
early editions of bfB poems. De-
prived of the only being who loved
him, friendless and alone, the old
man gradually sank, until death
ended his grief. Now comes the
mysterious part of tbe sad story
I cannot vouch for tbe truth of it,
as I have been unable to procure
anything of a documentary nature
bearing upon the subject. Many
years ago a notorious pirate named
Gibbs was captured, brought to this
port, and condemned to be hung and
gibbeted. On bis condemnation ;he
made a confession, and among othei
crimes confessed to having captured
tbe vessel which contained Tbeodo**
sia Alston. He said that he re
oeived information that a' vessel in-
tended leaving Charleston, having
on board plate of great value. He re<
solved to lay in wait for her. He did
so, and captured tbe vessel, with all
on board. In the struggle for the
possession of the thip many of the
crew and officers were killed. Qihbs
resolved to pot the snrvivors to
death as the safest way of disposing
of them. Mrs Alston begged for the
lives of herself and children; she
offered him all the wealth she pos-
sessed, and promised to secure him
from harm. She kneeled to him
and entreated bim in the most be-
seeching tones, but the pirate was
inexorable. He said tbat if be
saved them he mnst save the rest,
and that he could not do sq. He now
forced them to walk the plank. The
turn of the two little boys came,
and, as they disappeared in the
sea, the mother firmly and proudly
stepped off the board to follow
them. Whether this is the true
story of the fate of TheodoBia I do
not know. If, there is a copy of
"Gibbs' Confession" in existence,
this incident would very likely be
mentioned. If true, it was well that
Burr was spared the aditional- pain
of learning the mode of his daugh«
ter's death. I give it for what it is
worth. Raspeotfully youra,

Piermont, N Y., July 31.
Thb Gonzales Enquirer announces
this singular treaty of peace between
two parties of that connto:
It is with no little gratification tbat
we record a cessation of hostilities
between th% above named beligeri
snts. It appears from the facts as
related to as by a responsible party,
that on Monday night last Wesley
Hardin, accompanied with some 35
or 40 men,. well armed, marched to
the residence of Joe Tomltnsoo, in
DeWitt county, surrounded his house
and held him in seige for two nights
and one day. In the meantime Joe
Tomlinson and party, numbering 15
men, and strongly fortified, managed
to dispatch a' courier to Clinton for
the sheriff to hasten to his assistance.
After summoning about 50 men the
sheriff started for the '*6eat of war,"
whare * he arrived on Wednesday
morning and found Hardin's men
formed in line of battle. A brief
conference with the parties revealed
the unexpected but agreeable intel-
ligence tbat a compromise had been
effected between Hardin and Tom *
linson; in other words, a treaty of
peace had been agreed upon,and the
twfr parties were ready to proceed
to Clinton, a distance of 16 miles,
and sign documents to that effect.
The line ofraarch was at once taken
np. Hardin's men leading tbe
column, the Sheriff's poeae follow-
ing, and Tomlinson's party bring"
ing up the rear. -Arrivingat Clin

A Rattlesnake's Bite*.— An Indi-
ana man has recovered from the
bite of a rsttle snake. The South
Bend Tribune tells bis story thus:
Last Wednesday afternoon, Asa
Jones, of Clay Township, was en-
gaged in loading hay on a wagon
on the marsh at B.mebrake's farm,
when he was attacked by a rattle-
snake. The reptile first etruck at
the boot on his right r foot, but
missed it, and he gave the snake a
kick, sending it off a abort distance
It renewed the attack again, and
this time struck him on one side of
the calf of his leg, just above the
boot*top, tbe fangs makiog a
wound near an inch long. Mr
Jones managed to dispatch the
snake, and immediately bound some
tobacco on the wound. Within five
minutes from the time he was bit-
ten he was perfectly blind, and it
was with the greatest difficulty he
was got to his bouse, which was
over; a mile distant. He was in-
stantly filled with whisky, and to-
bacco was kept on the wound till
the next day, when he . was appa-
rently as well as ever. He is now
suffering no bad. effeots from the
bite. The snake was a good-sized
one, with seven rattles.
The Argentine Republic is deci-
dealy in favor of the( independence
of Cnba. It proposes that the
Spanish American Government
shall, in accord with the United
States, nnite to compel Spain to
acknowledge its autonomy of Cuba,
and that, as a preliminary step, the
struggle now existing in that island
shall be carried on according to tbe
usages of modern and civilized war
fare. „■ - ■ H
In order to effect this, an inter-
national congress is aBked for, to be
held in Washington. Peaceful med-
iation is proposed, in which tbe
United States Government shall
take tbe initiative.
An estimate of the immigrants
tbat nave arrived in the United
States since tbe establishment of
tbe government, and up to the end
of tbe year 1872, places the whole
number at 8,620,452 Tbe number
arriving previous to 1820 is esti-
mated at 250,000 ; from 1821 to
