and that the gig and one ofthe horses has been.

{their character and tlieli apprehended them.
Besides the above horse ahd gig they found iir
their possession a Sulkey, and numerous oth-
.r-rtstolen articles, and _several loaded pistols.
The police 'imm'ediatel'y itiforjired Mr. Ray-

lrinis'elfpro'ceed'ed tliithe'r.antl recovered their

to be a fellow by the name ofHale, who was
taken tip in Saugatuck last summer for steal-
ing. After they have siiffereil the punishment
‘due to the crimes which they have commit-
ted in the state of Pennsylvania they will be
'brunght to this state to be tried for the offen-
‘ces committed here.

A/‘rilional Tract Society.-—A meeting was
'held at the City Ho"el in New York on the
‘evening ofthe 11th inst. at which a’constilu-

‘seat ofoperations in that ci‘ty,wasadopted,and
‘ofiicers elected. Measures were taken for
‘erecting a house similar to that ofthe Ameri-
’can Bible Society-— expense of house and lot
estimated at 320,000, of which 812,500 were
"subscribed before the meeting adjourned ; 8:.
‘a committee was tlesignated to obtain the re-
'maitider.

A cold blooded murder was committed -in
-Fairfax -couoty,Va. on the 5th inst. by a young
‘man offiue appearance, and good family, up-

Simpson and his murderer had accidentally
fallen into each other’s\company, and had
slept together for two ‘nights ata tavern in
‘Ccntreville. Simpson being a stranger in
that part ofthe country was much assisted, in

the transaction ofhis btrsiness by the _ve«.ng_.g,

-man, and on the evening ofthe nrurder they
left thetavern» together to do some businessin
the ireiglrborliooil. After a short absencethe
young man returned, much agitated, ‘and in
the course ofthe night oflered the landlord a
certain stun incash for a horse, although he
jhail before asked credit for his whole fare.-
This however excited no suspicion, and the
‘next morning he departed for Leesbur;_r,where
‘he boasted ofthe large sum his pocket-book
‘contained. Two days after, Mr. Simpson
‘not making his appearance, suspicions were
‘excited and a search commenced. His body
was soon fotind in a bush, a ball having been
-shot thro’ his heart, and sixteen dirk wounds
inflicted about his head- The young man
was immediately arrested, and his trunk
—sear_ched where was_foitiid part ofthe money
belonging to the deceased, together with a
pistol-antldirk. He afterwards confessed the
murder, and was committed for trial. The
young man ls"ct)nnected with some of the
‘most respectable fatnilies in Virginia, and was
‘soon to have been marrierl to an amiable la-
dy-: it is supposed his want of funds to con-
summate this event led him to commit the
horrid deed.

Tire report thatDesba had escaped from
jail is contradicted. '

Itis understood that a Court of Iuqiriry is
about to be instituted at the request ofCoin-
mudore Porter, to‘ investigate his conductnin
regard to certain letters of Mr. Randall and
Mr. Mountain, ofiicially transmitted to Con-

In Frederick County, Maryland, Catharine
Sraley, has obtained a verdict of $3,000 a-
"flalllsl Charles Burkliart,for a breach ofproni-
‘ise ofinarriage. .

Miss Hannah Dodge, ofNewcasrle, Maine,
"has recovered S1000 ofi\‘Ir. Joel Hill, for re-
-fusing to fulfil his promise to "marry her.

Eighty-three vessels, many oftbeni ships of
the largest class,ahd all with valuable cargoes,
-arrived at the port of New-York on the 11th
and 12th inst. The constant influx of prop-
erty into the- N. Y. market excites tlte aston-
ishment oftliosc who have been most extrav-
agant in their calculations as to the rapid
'g1'0:V-Ill and prosperity ofthat city.

Lietters from St.Tlionias,estimate the dam-
«age by the late fire at that place, to be nearly
‘two million ofdollars.

The quarantine laws at New-Orleans have
‘been repealed in mm.

The subscriptions in Boston and other pla-
ces in Massachusetts to the Bunker Hill Mon-
-ument amounts to 835,287, exclusive of the
$10,000 granted by the state.

Various cases have been tried dflate,in our
tcourts, for breach of prornisc as to marriage.
In some instances of them the frailty of the
female is a prominent feature. We inav re-
joice when falsehood and seduction are liea v‘-
'ily aineiccd; as we should, indeed, when de-
linquency of ii hatever kind is punished. Brit
it is to he wished that no particular encour-
agemeut may be given to the multiplication,
of such cases, nor any particular triuinpli-at-
tached tothe conduct and situation of the
‘plaintifi's. A lady never s/rim-s on these oc-
-casions, however pitiable her original disap-
-ponrtment may seem: she who has fallen,
and for whom redress is sought in this way, if
entitled to compassion, is not an object of re-
-‘apect; and wher_e there Iras been no sacrifice
of virttie, still there is a violation ofdelicacy,

enviable or exemplary. The woman nfnne
refirmrreht and pride, who is de~erted, will
rather seek reliefonly in the consciousness of
her own faith and dignit '; in the private sym.
pathy and esteem ofher friends, aml in the
circuinstancc of her escape from a union with

The African Colony.-Despatclies have
lately been received,at the oflice ofthe Amer-
ican Colonization Society in this city, and
also at the Navy Department, from the Col-
ony at Liberia, which are In the highest de-
gree satisfactory. The colony is inider good
-government, and is rapidly iinprovin.-z,as may
be judged from some of the facts hereafter
stated. The utmost respect has been paid to
the instructions ofthe Society, and the system
prepared for the government o_fthe colony has
been cheerfully acquiesced in—-receiving a
consentancous support frorii the people, which
is not a little promoted by the agency which
the magistrates and counsel have in the delib-
erations ofthe Agent, and in the administra-
tion ofjustice. The laws are very sparingly
multiplied, but, when formed, are exactly en-
forced. A small uniformed military force is
es:-ylgli-slietl for the preservation of police, 81.0.

I( the militia are periodically called out in
the number requisite for sentries. Since the
organization ofthe,guard, there has not been
a single instance of the public stores being
pillaged, as had frequently happened before.
Upon the whole, the reports present a picture
ofan excellent provincial government in suc-
cessful operation. —Besides the public
buildings and improvements, which are ex-
tensive, one store-house, about a dozen frame
houses, and nearly 40 log buildings have late-
ly been built, or are building, all covered with
shingles obtained iii the settlement. Nearly
every proprietor ol'lunds,_single‘ women not
excepted, has a dwelling well advanced, and
several are nearly completed. Two houses
of worship are building, the one by the Bap-
tists, the other by the Methodists. There is
a school for boys, another for girls, a third,
an evening school, for adults.

The discovery of indigenous coffee on that
coast, satnples of which have been forwarded
to the United States, is full of auspicious
promise to the interests ofthe colony.
go bears full tcn cuttings in the year, and its
culture is extending. The population of
the colony is about 380, of whom about three
fourths are grown persons. Three only have
died within the last six months. Two mar-
riages had talten place wiiliiu the last four
wceks.—-./\/'ac'iona£ Inlclligencer. ’

Pt'rac_i/.--It has been ‘a subject of regret
with u‘rauy people, that congress has adjourn-
ed without passing the bill for the suppression
ofpiracy. We believe there is but one senti-
ment in the. nation as to the necessity of put-
ting down these lawless freebootcrs. But it
may be well questioned, whether the enact-
ments of the proposed bill were altogether
politic. As it now stands, the conduct of the
war, ifwe may so call it, is left to the execu-
tive, with the usual constitutional restrictions.
We hope and believe, that the force placed
at his disposal will be employed with suffi-
cierit energy.-—-—There are many unrefiect-
ing people among us, who seem prepared to
go any lengths, even to the capture and sub-
jugation ofilie island ofCuba. Ifsuch violent
measures should become necessary, we think
the course to be taken by the United States is
too obvious to be mistaken. As the evil which
would call for such a remedy is felt by us on-
ly in common with other nations, we should
uiake common cause with them iti seeing it
redressed. Our intention should be tirade
known to France and England, and perhaps
Holland, all ofw'hom might be invited to join
us in the undertaking. By pursuing such a
course, we should escape not only the whole
burthen ofthe expense, as ivell as ofthe risk,
but the itnputation also of unhallowed views
ofconque-st;a charge which this people should
always repel, as repugnant to their real policy,
and disgracefulto the true principles of her
liberal institutions.

Whatever may be the notions ofmercenary
lflt.llVl(ll.l_HlS, we think no greater national ca-
lamity could befal the Union, that. the addi-
tioir of so much territory-in the IVcst ludics,
with a slave population. So long as the bal-
ance ofthe national scales is kept vibrating,
we may disregard their temporary mutations
in favor of the north or south, but a weight
like Cuba, thrown at once on the side of the
south, would destroy the equilibrium of the
whole machine.

Piracy is a crime which calls for very little
legislation. It is without the pale ofall law,
and the people who cotinteirance it, identify
tlteiiiselves with the uiost criminal. Untler
sirch Cll‘C'lll1Sla1lCCS, we believe the cabinet
entirely competent to select a course suffi-
ciently energetic to guard the rights of the
citizens, witliotrt endangering the peace or
comproinitiing the ltouor of the republic.

We only hope that no mistaken notions of
humanity will in future frustrate the whole-
some objects ofthe laws of nations.

Plaltsburgh BanI:.—Ou Wednesday, 16th,
Mr. Spencer, ofthe N. Y. Senate, laid on the
table the following preamble and resolution :

Whereas it appears by the returns of the
President and Cashier of the Plattsburgh
Bank, made on the 6th of Jan. last, that the
capital stock ofthe. said bank, subscribed and
actually paid in, was 360,000, and the specie
actually deposited therein was 859,488 76;
and that the amount of bank notes in circu.
|.ition and other debts due by the said bank,
including deposits,was 3'£7‘2,034 88, by which
it appears that the total amount of debts at
the tinre aforesaid due by the said corporation,
over and above the specie than actually do-
posited in the bank, exceeds three times the
sum ofthe capital stock subscribed and ac-
tually paid in the said bank, by the sum of
$801,546 t92—'I‘herefore, ~

Rt-3olvei1,'I‘li:it the Attorney General report
to the Senate his opinion on the above state
of facts, whether the directors of saitl batik,
excepting those exempted by the eighth sec-
tioii ofthe “ act to incorporate the bank of
Platts-'burgli,” are, under that section, in their
individual and private capacity, liable for the
said excess, and also, whether that liability is
for the benefit of the creditors of the said
bank, and to be enforced by them ; or wheth-
er it is competent for the legislature, or either
house, to exact the payment of the said ex-
cess, and distribute the same among the cred-
itors of the said bank, or in what tnanner the
said liability may be enforced.

A bill was reported in the Assembly provi-
ding for a Great State Road, from the Hrid-
son River to Lake Erie.

‘ll Great efforts are nraking to defeat the
election of Mr. Barber, and secure that of E-
lisha Tra‘c_y, Esq. in his stead. Last week
some remarks appeared in the New-Haven
Register and one or two other papersin sup-
port ofthe claims of Mr.T., which, betiig sup-
posed to contain erroneous :itaternents',- has
produced the following-letter in reply. VVe
are assured thatthc statements contained in
the lette_r are perfectly correct.

The editor of the Coliinrliiart Register 1 H

The sttbscrilrer being 21 Member ofthe Gen-
eral Assembly in May last, from the town of
Norwich and County ofNew-London,deems
it diietb the cause of truth to correct the
stateirrent in your paper ofthe 12th inst. in
which yoir say that Elisha Tracy, Esq. of
Norwich, in New-London County, was lairly
uooiinaterl by the republicans at their county
Cmicris in New-Haven iir May last, 11,511 inerti-
ber of Congress from this state.

At ilre instance of Col. Tracy, and irnd‘er
circninstances tlisapprovetl by a majority of
the Republicans from the County, col. Tracy,
called a meeting at his quarters, composed 01
both political parties. Several Republicans
being absent, and the tiling novel that Fed-
e.ral,geuileme.n should be called in to‘ aid a re-
pu‘bl can Caucus, inilnced the subscriber, and
he believes other of the Republican members
present, to withhold their votes——at which
meeting Col. Tracy presided, and from those
of the iirettibers present, Col. Tracy obtain-
ed a majority ofthe votes. Under the cir-
ciirnstai'rces in which this nomination was ob-
tained, it was utianiiiroiisly agreed that it
should not be reported to the Grand Caucus
till after another meeting; notwitlrstanding
which, before the next meeting, the nouiina-

was there offered for their coiiciirrerice—but
being met at the Grand Caucus on a state-
ment of facts, the subject was recommitted
to the County Caucus, and at a subsequent
meeting ofthe Republicans, specially called,
Noyes Barber, Esq. received ten votes, Col.
Tracy five votes, and Mr. Hubbard, of Ston-
nington, one vote. Mr. Barber’s mime being
reported to the Grand Caucus, a motion was
made to erase his name and substitute that of
