Shameful outrage.

--When Senator Douglas alighted from the carriage to ascend the steps of the Exchange Hotel, at Montgomery, Ala., there were three rotten eggs thrown.--The first egg struck Col. Seibles, editor of the "Confederation," the second egg struck Col. Elmore, and the third egg struck the hat of Judge Douglas, bursted and discharged its contents in the face of his wife, who stood immediately on his left. The papers there denounce the outrage in severe terms.
