soructiute ago tlrrouglr the committee ofthe

ecutiou lratl spoken, Mr. Foot rosetaud open-
ed the case on the part of the plaintiff. He
entered itrto a full history of the life and ad-
ventures ofWillianr J. Caldwell, atrd remark-
ml pretty freely upon the conduct oftlre-lolrby
of the Legislztttrm which lratl produced so
much trouble in this case. He cnutuerated
the various cxpetlienls that had been adopted
for forcing money from the pocket of Mr.
'.\Iorrist>u. He alluded "to their threats of
blowing up the bank, upon his refusal to com-
ply with their detuands; and to their prom-
ise, alter the suit had commenced, of bushing
up all proceedings, upon condition ofhis pay
iug them $15,000. .- He was here interrupted
by the AttorneyGeneral and required to name,
the persons he thus implicated. Mr.Foot re-
plied that he could give the name and partic-
ulars if be pleased: atrd he could moreover
describe a scene between the Attorney Gen-
eral and Mr. P.‘ Spencer, when the former
went into the rtrtnrr of the latter, with the in-
dit-tnrent in his hand, antl offered to enter a
nollc prosoqui, if Mr. Spencer would change
his vote from Adams to Crawford Electors.
Here the counsel stared and the Court was in
dismay, when the Attorney General rose antl
declared the charge absolutely false. Mr.
Foot then concluded his speech and the court
adjourned. ‘On the ncxt day the trial was
completed, antl thejirry, without leaving the
box, brought in a verdict of Nb? Guilly.

Burning Springs in Ontario cottn£_1;,.N'. Y.-
Most ofour readers haveprobably read of the
famous burning springs in the vicinity ol
Baku, near the Caspian Sea. The country
all around Baku is deeply impregnated with
itrllatnurable matter, and when a torch is ap-
plied to the surface, volumes of flame shoot
up and roll along the ground with astonish-
ing velocity. In sotrre places the natives in-
sert large hollow canes in the earth, through
which the gas issues, and is used as a substi-
tute for lamp oil and for culinaty purposes.-—
Thc Ontario Repository of the 9th inst. gives
the following account ofsitnilar springs foutrtl
in that vicinity. “"I‘hese springs are found
in Bristol, Middlesex, and Canaudaigua. The
former are situated in a ravine on the west
side ofBristol Hollow, about halfa mile from
the North Presbyteri!i"Meeting House. The
ravine is lormed itr clay slate, and asmall
brook rtrns through it. The gas rises tlrrouglt
fissures ofthe slate, from both the rnargitl and
the betl ofthe brook. Whereit;y‘as,Hl'|‘0"gl|

The Sp,-gngs in M:-xdlesex are situated from
one ,0 “W, m',p..«’sotrtlrwester'ly from the vil-
gage ,,fp,,,sh,.1le, along a tract nearly a mile
in ;e,,,_,.,;,, partly at the bottom of the valley
called J-‘ederal Hollow, and partly at an ele;
,,m;.n'of40 or 50 feet on the south side of it.
mieir places are known by little hilltrcks,ofa
few feet in diameter, and a few inches high,
formed of a dark bittrminotrs mould, which
seems principally to have been deposited by
the gas and through which it finds its way to
the surface,‘ in one or more currents.
These currents ofgas may be set on fire, Zxt
will burn with a steady flame. In winter they
fornr openings through the snow, and being
set on fire, exhibit the novel and interesting
phenomenon of a steady atrd lively flame in
contact with nothing butsnow. In very cold

night ofthe not lost. aged 63 yt§z..,,, 1),,'v,,',-
Butut, Es . Clerk of-the Superior &.._County
Courts for Fairfield Coiitity.. ‘ "R I
Upon theopetriug of the Court on Friday
morning, the death ofits'Cle.rk was annothic.
of the Bar. Wlrereupo it‘. was Resolved,
That as a testimonial oft'h\\ir respect to the
memory ofthe deceased, th Conn and Ba,-
wear the usual badge of mouiging; for thirty
days, and that the court imme lately adjourn
till two.- o’clock in the aftertrou\r_m_ which
hour the Court was opened with an appropri-
ate prayer, by the Rev. Mr. Bartlett,\pr Red-
ding. The remains ofthe deceased were then
removed to Fairfield for interment, andwere.
followed some distance by a procession
composed of the Court, the Sheriff of the
county, the gentlemen ofthe Bar, and a num-
ber of respectable citizens of Danbury.
The death of this highly valued officer of
the Court is deeply felt by those with whom
he was more immediately connected, and by
the public in general will be long and sin-
cerely lamented. 'For more than forty-six
years he held the office of clerk, and dischar-
ged its many and arduous duties, with singular
ability, faitlrfulness_and zeal. His deport-
ment towards the Court was uniformly re-
spectful. In his intercourse with the Bar, he
was frank, kind and conciliating.
It is not perhaps too much to say, that in
the discharge, of his ofiicial duties he never
made,and it is certain ‘that he did not leave, a
single pt rsoual enemy. In‘ private life he
was affectionate and sincere, generous and
hospitable. To the poor he wasa friend8zbene
factor. His private clrarities wereimany, atrd
not the less valued that they were private and
unobtrusive. '
This tribute ofrespect to the worth of the
tlec’d, is paid by the Bar, of which he many
years lived and died a tnetnber, and by which
his memory will belong cherished and loved.

ing intelligence of the death,at Jamaica, W.l.
