FROM THE NORTHERN XVHIG.
The event on_ which the following lires are"
;founded, happened in 1777, am] is thus described '
by Gen. Gates in a letter to Burgoyne ; ‘ Miss
M’Crea, a young lady, lovely to the sight, of_\ir-
tuous character and amiable disposition, engaged
to an oliiccr of your army, was, with other wo-
men and children, murdered by the savages.—
The miserable fate of Miss M’Cre2t was ttgg‘J,§-
rated, by her being dressed to receive. her pruni-
ised husband, when she met her rnurdcrcr.’
Her lover is coming-—hcr bosom throbs high,
And love beams enchantingly bright in her eye
This night, she cxclaims, before lir:tivci~.’s pure
shrine,
My warrior youth forever is mine.
Is that his dear form stealing slow thru‘ the sliridel
Is it thus he would come to liisowi: L-c:lov’<l ni-aid ?
Oh,tio:‘ ’tis the savage-—dr.-atli flies from his bow.

TIIE circumstances which he had to detail
were indeed strong ones. The prcvio-.i§_ quarrel ;
the intention to fight the next day ; the ])i_'0vO-
king accusations brought by the deceased agaimtt
the prisoner, which (as the gentlemen present
'{)wne(l) nothing but his blood could wipe away;
the evident agitation (as he should prove) of the
prisoner, when the waiter came at 5 o’clock to
call the deceased ; his being up at that hour,ready
dressed,_and his trunk packed up for going away ;
his offer to bribe the waiter to delay calling the
deceased ; and lastly, his sword stained to the ve-
ry hilt in blood, and his diamond pin found by the
bed-side of the murdered man, and broken evi-
dently in the bloody struggle; together with the
alaeiilute im,pr'cbabil‘ity that any one else had cl/zine
it, .5; no traces or signs of blood had been found
in any other apartment, or on any }}ci'St)n ; be-
sides the fact of no robbery having been commit-

the prisoner, as his experience had never furnish-

not help admiring the beauty ofétlie axe which i
was thus laid to the root of his life ;' and was°for-
ced to forego the admiration which the talent of
eloquence had previously and recently excited in
him, when he thus /jlflalll how capable it was of
bringing down destruction on an innocent man.
The sergeant liavi-rig ended his speech, called
his witnesses; tii)g_;L',",\i'lion1 was Everett, who
had taken care ti)‘ his eye, in order to have
a pretence for hiding his ‘conscious. countenance
by a green shade; and by affecting a violent
cold, he gave himselfa pretence to speak hoarse-
ly and inaudibly. By brandy and opium he had
wound up his nerves to bear the short period of
his examination : and as Sergeant l\'lurray was
so prepossessed with the guilt of Tomms, that
l
evidence was simply, thatjhe witnessed the quar-
rel of the prisoner and the deceased ; he was soon
dismissed, and at liberty to leave the town even
whenever he pleased, which he did instantly.
The cross-examiiiation of Tomms did great
credit to S6l‘§?“'i€tTtl'.. Murray"s acuteness: but as
the than was firm in conscious truth, his evidence
ivasiin no way shaken. nor could his iiirioccncs be
impeached in the slightest degree.
All therefore that Sergeant Murray hould do
for his client in reply, was to descant on the little
probabilty that a being so amiable, as_he could
prove the prisoner to be by iucontrovert1_ble testi-
mony, could have been guilty of thocrime im-
puted to him. Vlfhilc he was speaking, a note
was handed to the prisoner, who having read it,
leaned quite overpowered, on the shoulder of Mr.
Ctiurtnay. ‘ . .
Sergeant Murray paused, and-begged to read
the note. It was handed to him; and as It.pro-
duced emotion in him, he bcdgged to read it a-
loud. But the counsel on the other side clamor‘-
ously contended against it; and declared itnot
admissible to read any thing of the sort in that
ly to influence the judgment of thejury through
their feelings. However, as Sergeant Murray

geant Rickwood,éonse:ited,_sayin§, that was he
not sure of a verdict from the evidence he hail
brought forward, he would not have allowed it.
The note was from I-Ienry’s father to his son,
and was tasfollows : . _
‘ I am here my dear and innocent child ; and
I want to know whether my presence, the pre-
sence of a father, whose pride’ and pleasure you
have always been, and ‘still will be, (for I know
you will behave asyou ought in this trial of 3 our
resignation and your fortitutle) would be rt com-
fort and support to ‘.you; if so, I will come to
you iiistrtntly.’. .
There was a murmur of pity and . emoii_on
heard thro_ugh'out the court when the sergeant
ceasr. d to read; and’-the judge broke the sort of
sllerice which succeeded, by asking llenryif he
\VlSllt:(l his father‘ should come in; but he an-
sweietl in the negative, and the sergeant resum-
ed his speech ; while Mr. t,'curtnay went out to
speak to the anxious parent.
’o‘erge‘an:. I\/Illt‘I'.'i:.', emboldened by the permis-
sion he had obtained to read the note, now beg-
ged leave. to read a letter, which \\'O'.ll\‘l exhibit
i.‘l(_) ch.u~acter both of t4.ie_fru;liet' and the son in
their true light. .
'l‘his was a letter from VVoodiille senior to
l-lenry, which he received just after he was im-
prisonctl ; in which h»: told him that he at len-‘rt
,,.
was able to pay his creditors all he owed them,
with interest; and that he had invited them to
iléri-3 with him on such a day. The good man
\v::l‘.l on to describe the exquisite joy he should
t::~;p;"t’lcl‘lCe at that moment, which would be
iicighteiierl to him by the consciousness that the‘
flllzll piety of his son, proved by the savings which
he had forced his father to accept, had enabled
swim so to act soonerthan he could otherwise have
clone ; and had thus hastened the moment of this
,;reat relief to his mind, and this restoration to
-;-oznpleto liappine.-.s. But as a letter was not ad-
ir.i.<..~ihfo evidence, any more than the note, and
as it ~.v-as much longer, the sergeant was forbid-
den to rt-atl a word of it. He p;rsisted liowe~.r‘-
er, to give the substance of the letter, and then
called M r. Courtnay as witness to the character
of Henry. This at.ta"':liied and ainiabld-fi‘ieiitl of
Henry and his f'd.1‘.‘.l'l:_-‘ was-so affected when he
rose to speak, that hr: could not utter a word_ fqr
some minutes ; but when hedid, his words were
as eloquent as his silence had been. Another
witness to the .--'-.me effect was now called;-a
young friend of Henry's ; and he was unexpeci.
cdly succeeded by several others; all eager to
bear their testimony in behalf of the virtue of
their exemplary and beloved companion.
These young men had voluntarily set off from
London, and other places, as soon as they heard
of I-Ienry’s situation; and with glistening eyes
and faltering voices rose, almost clamorotlsly, to
demand to be put to their oath and heard.
‘ Gentlemen of the jury,’ said Sergeant Mur-
ray, his own eyes glistening, and his own voice
