MISS i\l’CREA.

‘ The story ofthis titifortunate young lS1i’l}' is
well known, nor should I mention it now, but_for
the fact that the place of her murder was point-
tcd out to us near Fort Edw:\r£l-

‘Ne saw and conversed with ;i person: who
was acquainted with her and her faintly; HWY
resided in the village of Fort Edward. It seems
she iv-as betrothed to a Mr. Jones, an Ainei-ican
refiigee, who was with Burgoyne, and being anx-
ious to obtain possession of his expected bride,
he dispatched a party of Indians to -escort her to
the British army. \-Vhere were his zitf.-ciion and
gallantry, that he did not iictzoiiipziiiy his savage
emissaricsl ,

Sorely against the advice and l‘?.n‘iCl2:.l.‘:‘i‘.llCt)S of
her friends, she coriiiiiittctl herself to the care of
these fiends: strange infattiation in her lover to
solicit such confidence-—stranger presumptioii in
her to yield to his wishes: what ti'etitmt:_iil. had
she a right to exp_t-ct from such guardiaiis!

The party set forward, aiidshe on lioinsebaclt ;
they had not proceeded more than a mile from
Fort Edward, when they arrived atja spring and
halted to drink. The impatient lover had in the
mean time, dispatched ti second party of Indians,
on the same errand ; they came at the unfortu-
nate moment, to tlié same spring, and a collission
immetliately ensued, respecting the promised re-
ward, [:1 barrel of rum.] , _

Bot'n pai't'ies,,were now attacked by the whites,
and at the end of the conflict, the unhappy young
woman was fountl toniahawked, scalped, and tied
to a tree just by the spring. Tradition reports
that the Indians divided the scalp, and that each
' artv ctit'ried halfof it to the agoiiizetl lover.

This beautiful spring, wliicli still llows limped
and real from a bank ii-..-ar the road side, and this

'./Ifi’my.—We learn that an iinfortunate affrayl
re‘cently took place ‘at Mackina, between Captain
Knapp, of the U. S. revenue ctitter, and a mer-
chant named Rollett, (said to be a British half pay
oflicer,') in which the former was stabbed in the
bowels with a large knife, which entered his body
to the depth of six inches ; hopes, however, are
entertained of his recovery. _Rolett wasimme-
diately apprehended and committed to gaol.

A soldier was lately accidentally killed at Green
Bay. He and one of his comrades were engaged
in a playful scufl-le with their cooking knives,
when the latter unfortunately slipped, and the
former received his knife in the left breast, which
penetrated his body. He survived but it few miti-
utcs.

On Saturday last the Superior Court closed its
session in this county. His honor Judge Chap-
man held the Court. The preci.~.io:i, dispatch,
and industry of the Judge in the discharge of his
high and laborious duties, were the subject ofgen-
cral observation. Besides a large portion of civil
business, which was disposed of, were the follow-
ing criminal matters, viz:

Amos Coffee, for burglary upon the store of
Norman Brown ofGroton. Convicted: Newgate.

Aaron Manchester was convicted of forgery,
and sent to Newgate. _

Stevens, 21 blackman, for burglary on the dwel-
ling house of Timothy VVoodbi‘idge, Esq. of Col-
chcster, was coiidcnincd and sent to Neivg-ate.

Amnii Rogers, a pretended Clergyiiiaii, was
placed at the bar, and took his trial before an en-
lightened and respectable jury. He stood char-
ged with a high ciime and misdemeanor; ‘a deed
ofnameless note.’ The charges ranged between
the extremes of seduction and child murder ; and
poisons and violciice were shown to, be in use to
conceal his crime, and shelter from tlisgiace the
object of his cruelty. It is said, the county never
witnessed a trial in which so much basencss and
cold calculating depravity of lieart were disclosed,
and where so black a deed was atteiiipted to be
smothered by the culprit by so much subordina-
tion and falsehood. He was convicted. 5€lTL€ll1:t3;

number cannot but increase upon the iiiti'oduc.tion
of an order of things so different from that w-iiirli
has lately been laid aside. Under these circum-
stances, and taking for graiitetl that the operations
of the Ministry are directed by a licstile h-ind ;
that the King has been imposed upon; and that
an order, pregnant with such ruinous consequen-
ces, has been issued witlioiit the knowledge of the
Cortcs, at the si_iggestion.of weak, if not ill dc-
sigiiing, advisers, who wish to be iid of an army
which is his Miijcsty’s shield, and to dislodge it
from a position which they dread to see remain ;
the Generals, trusting that the services, which
they and their troops have rendered to the coun-
try, will prevent their intentions from being mis-
construed _or their patriotism suspected, request
that his Majesty will be pleased to siispeiid the
execution of the mischievous order; and express
their confident hope that the Cortes will not for-
sake them in the critical situation they have l)t.tll
placed in by the deed of an Agent of the l:‘.xet-.-i-

giving up the laudable and heroic object for which '
they iiobly and fortuiiatcly rose up in a:ms.....l2ie

is reported that your present ministers are soli-
citinga succour of Austrian troops. The Austri-
ans were, are, and will_be, not only the natural
enemies of the Piedmontese, but of all the other
people of Italy. The recollection of l815 is not
far off. Your soldiers know what; is meant by
huving_ Austrians in the country, although as
fi lends. They have always usurped the honor of
our exploits. The Austrians are the execration
of Italy. Your soldiers, Sire, will not have them
btit as enemies. To ask their assistance would
be an iiisupportable insult to the honor of your
soldiers, who boast that they are sufficient. for the
defence of the throne, the country and the con-
stitutioii.

From the JV'u£z'onal ./idvocate.

./{ll alias/r.——Aniong the witriesses introduced
by the Ministers against the Queen, was one Lou-
isa Dumont. Her testimony was considered as
conclusive against the Queen ; but on her cross-
examination, certain facts escaped which greatly
tended to shake her testimony. Several letters
were produced, admitted to be written by her,
qfter she had left her Majesty’s service. Some
of the passages ran thus :-—

‘ Iftlie Princess could read my heart, she would
then be convinced ofthe infinite respect, the un-
limited attachment, and the perfect affection I en-
tertain for her august person. How often tonn-
merous circles have I enumerated with enthusi-
asm, her rare talents, her mildness, her piety, her
charity, and in short, all those perfections which
she possesses in such an cmineiit degree.’-———
‘ I have been delighted in looking over my jour-
nal, for you know I say in it at great deal of the
best and most _ami..’olc Piiiicess in the world"; I
relate in detail all the traits of sensibility and gen-
erosity wliich she has shuwn,and the manner in
which she has been received. applauded, and cher-
ished. in all the places which we have visited.’-—
- You know when the Piincess is my subject, I
am not b:u‘ren. Consequently my journal is citi-
bellislied with the cfl'ut-ioiis ofmy heart, my great-
est dc;-ire liaviiig always been, that the Princess
Should ever appear what: she really is, and that
full justice should be reiidered her.’

These letters could not fail to invalidate her
lCStim0H5', and greatly chagrin the Ministers.-—
One letter was produced, of Wl‘lCll she denied be-
ing the author, btit evcnttially admitted that it was
hers. The following is an extract from it, ad-
dressed to her sister.

‘I had almost forgotten to confide to you a
thing which will surprize you as much as it has
me. The 24th oflast month, I was takiiig some
refresl'itiieiit'_ "t my aunt Clair’s when Iwas infor-
med tliat théfe was a person desired to deliver
me a letter, and that he would trust it to no one
else but me. I vreiit down stairs, and desired

. him to come up into my room; and, to my aston-

ishment, when I broke the seal, 1 found a propo-
sal was made to me to set off to Lontlon, under
the protection of government. I was promised
pi-oteciion, and an opulent fortune in a short time.
The letter was without signature, but, to assure
me of the truth ofit, I was infortned Ihmight
draw on a banker for as much money as I wish-
c(l.¢’

Here an evident attempt has been made to
bribe the witness; and. by implication,it will un-
doubtedly be fixed on the ministry. The Times
exclaitns, ‘ Oh! l\‘I:l(l2llIlC Dumont, Countess Co-
loiiibicr, you have decidedly settled your employ-
ers I The cause is ended.’
