says——the testimony, trenching so nicely upon
both sides of the dividing line __betwecn posi-
tive ' and circumstantial, rendered the trial
painfully interesting. This interest was height-
ened by the consideration, that no similar tri-
‘all had taken place in that county for the peri-
od 'of forty-_/lve years, and no capital convic-
tion during a century. Verdict not guilty.

an ingenious and worthy mechanic ofthis city

One good result is apparent in our Stepping
Mills. Formerly when the labour was light
the convicts when locked up together at night
were noisy and profane, now when relieved
from the Stepping Mill, and having had their
supper, such is their fatigue, that they enjoy a
sound and refreshing sleep, having no power
or inclination to talk, to be riotous or abusive.
The effort seems to be confined to the legs and
feet, and yet it is evidcntthat the constant ac-
tion strengthens the muscles and tendons of
the leg, and gives it a firmness and elasticity.
The convicts on the mill are generally very
healtliy.—-flalvocalc.

~ A circumstance occurred on the 4th inst.
that may be certainly called a wonder, and
will stagger the sceptics, and be good food
for the crcdulous. W bilst a young man of
this place was sitting .where three men were
at work on the canal, near Mr. Isaac Levan’s
house, there ‘suddenly appeared two crows,
and directly alighted on the shoulders of one
oftbe workmen; and continued for a few se-
cbnds to maintain their seats without any ap-
parent shyness, and disregarded the iuan, al-
though he put up his hand to drive them off
—nor did they fly off till one of the men at-
tempted to catch them. The man on whom
they alightcd immediately became pensive,
and,.quitting his work, he exclaimed, .“ Now
I know what I have to do,” and -left the con-
tract, although he had but that morning com-
menced working there. The other men
looked upon the event as oniinious that he
was guilty of seine unknown crime, and chal-
lenged him accordingly.—He neither owned
nor denied the charge, but went off deeply
affected. This event is worth the minute in-
quiry of some impartial person.

‘.19 Rat—a rat.’-—The Providence Gazette
states as a fact, that a rat caught in a trap in
that city, actually crept out qfhis skin to libe-
rate himself! It appears that the animal was
caught by the forehead, and that having eaten
off his two fore feet, he crawled entirely out
ofhis skin, leaving the flesh side of the skin
outwards. VVe last evening, (says the editor,)
saw the skin, and heard the declaration of
gentlemen, that it remained in the trap as it
was found. [At Washington, it is said, the
clerks are kept so poor that. the rats are often
seen running from their houses with tears in
their eyes. We trust that the skins of the
Providence rats do not sit so loosely upon

of vontillation, the crowded state of the hold,
the absence of all arrangements for comfort,
