J1c'q-uillal.—Tlie Court of Oy,er 8.’. Termin-
‘car have been occupied since Monday iiiorn-
iug with the trial ofJohn Henry Charpie,aiid
Charles Henry Charpie, natives 0f_Switzer-
land, anti brothers charged with the murder
of FrederickL. Fiege. The evidence was
‘closed about 12 o’clock yesterday, when Mr.
Maxwell, District Attorney, finding the tcsti
mony far short ofwliat he expected, declined
summing up to thejiiry. Judge Edwards re-
inarked it would take some little time for him
‘to overlook his minutes ofthe testimony, be-
fore he could charge the jury. Upon which
it was observed that they were willing to dis-
pense with the‘cliarge. Jiidge Edwards then
made a few reuiarlts to thejnry, and they ti-
nanirnou_sly,without the least liesitation or do
lay, acquitted the prisoners. The Judge then
niade a short address totlie prisoncrs,iuforin-
ing them that the Court were highly gratified
to find that they had so clearly establislierl
their innocence; and triumphantly refuted
every charge bro"t against them. The Cotirt
individrially and unanimously, coincided in
opinion with the jury, and, if the prisoners
dr,-sired ii, the Court would grant a certificate
that would remove any imputation that might
be cast upon tlie_iii by being put upon their
trial, and the_jury immediately offered to do

"the sanie.—.’V'. Y. Eve. Post’.

I The meeting oftheprisoiicrs after their dis-
"charge, with their sister, who had steadily
‘watched the progress ofthe trial, and like a
‘second J6-tlllllle Deans,stood by them through
good and through evil, was ol'tlie most affect-
'ing character. When her brothers, honorably
acquitted, left the prisouer’s box, and walked
=forth into the Hall, reinstated in their integri-
-ty, she rushed into their arrns,and there straiii-
‘ed to each otber’s breasts, they wept long and
aloud. Even eyes unused to weeping, ming-
led in these holy tears—arid, they, who by
‘their skill and assidiiity had contributed to
‘this result,and in a particular niauiier Win.A.
‘See-.ly, Esq. who has evinced from the coin-

The Mainmoih Sl:i';i.—A correspondent of
‘the N. Y. Daily Adv. who has recently visit-
ed the grcat timber ship built at Qiiehcc, and
which was to have been launched on the 18th
*lilt.describes it as being, (instead of at rough
‘unsightly mass of timber, as he expected to
‘find it,) a ship of proper form, and handsome-
worktiiansliip, that would not have discredit-
ed any ship yard on the Atlantic coast. Its
rlinieusioiis are as follows :--Length ofdeclt,
305 feet; breadth of beam,60 ; depth of hold,
35 ; height from the keel to the taffrail, 50;
length of the maimuast above the deck, 75 ;
whole length, 100; length of the mainyard,
'79.; height between the decks,‘ 14; leugtli
pfthc tiller, ‘Z8 ; tonnage, 5989. tons ; length
of chain cable,120 fatlioms offil 1-Q inch iron;
ofthe hemp cable, 100 fatlioins, 9.6 inch rope;
weight ofthe aiicli:irs,oue of 9,000, and one of
--7,500 lbs weight ; length of bowsprit, 60 feet.
'-Tlie ship is ten feet wider than the former
‘great ship, the Colutnbtis ; 5 feetdecper, and
1500 tons larger. She required in her con-
struction 3000 tons oftimbcr: 19. tons ol'oak-
turn were used in caulking her: aiid,l£'2.‘i tons
ofliron in bolts, &c. It is expected she will
i;nrr.y to'Englaiid 9000 tons of timber. Both
‘this vessel and the Colriinbus were built foixa
company inEugland: it is thought that the
speculation would prove iiiiprofiirible. The
-master ofthe Columbus commands the new
"ship. He informed tlie‘\vritcr that the Co-
=lumbus worked perfectly well, and -minded
thcr helm as well as a bout. He was or‘ opin-
‘-tion that Noah’s Ark was built prccisczy upon
‘rthe same model as this ship.

The attempt to launch the ship on the day
aappointed proved unsuccessful. She started
‘Ilttll(lS()lll8l)’, and moved slowly about !'alflicr
i'}t'l,lglll, but owing to her imincuse weight and
‘great length, all the grease was btiriit on the

ways, whicli were'scton'fire, and she stopped.
By the aid oftwosteaiii boats she was started
a second time, but riiovetl only a few inches,‘
«and the attempt was abandoned for that day.

Celebration of In'cle_zieridence_,.-—-Yes_te_rday
the 49th Anniversary of American Independ-
ence was celebratedin this place in a very
handsome uianncr. The day was fine; a large
concourse ofour most respectable citizens and
of gentlemen rom neighboring towns were
present ; the itmost liarmouy and good feel-
ing prevailed, and all the exercises were con-
ducted in a manner worthy of the occasion,
and we believe in a way not unwort_hy of the
descendants of thosebrave and illustriotis on
whose deeds of valour we commemorateb
The procession was formed at It o’clock, and
moved from near the Bridge to the Meeting-
House in the following order :——ist, -Martials
of the day; fld, Music; 3d, Citizens; 4th,
Committee of Arrangements; 5th.Clergy;
0th, Orator of the Day,and the reader of the
Declaration oflndependence. At the Meet-
ing-house the following exercises took place :
lst, Singing; 9.d, Prayer by the Rev. Mr.
WtLcox; 3d,Declaration of Independence,
read by C. BissELL, Esq. ;4tli, Instriirriental
Music——Hiiil Col'uriibia ; 5th, Oration'by Mr.
NORMAN PINNEY; 6th,Singing; 7th, Ad-
dress by Rev. Mr. EA'rON ; and lastly Sing-
intn. Allof these performances were liand-
somely executed: the Music was excellent,
and the prayer impressive and well adapted
to the occasion. Oftlie Oration and-A‘:ldress
we have only room to say that both did honor
to the heads as well as the hearts ofthe au-
thors, and we have reason to believe gave
complete satisfaction to all who heard them.
We hope to lzave it in our power to lay the
Oration before our readers in the next Ga-
zette. At the close of the exercises, the pro-
cession again foriiierl and returned to Mr.
Whitlock’s, where a large nuiiibei ofgentle-
men sat down to an excellent Dinner. After
the cloth was removed, the following Toasts
were drank, accompanied with music and the
discharge of artillery.

b'efore‘l’=.istf, a'rid‘odc'upied,several <33)’ 5- C°m'
plete satisfactiori was given by the. students of
the utility of the plan of instruction, and of
their proficiency. At the close ofthe exam-
ination, the Cadets, in number. 250, Cummg
from each state nearly.in the ratio ofcongres-
sional yep;-egpnlafion, were addressed 
Everett, the Representative Elect from Mas-
sachusetts. This address is‘ represented as
having bee‘u one ofthe most eloquent and im-
pressive exhortations ever listened 10.!!! any
Academic Hall. The last Nat. Intclligencer
says Mr. E. is undoubtedly one of the most
highly gifted men in our country.

.Mr. ./]_clams.—Facts like the following tend
in a great degree to strengthen the confidence
ofthe public in the character and integrity 0
those who are the subjects of them : it was,
therefore, with much satisfaction that we read
in a late Nat. Intelligencer this tribute to the
present Chief Magistrate of our country:

“ During the very heatofthe late Presiden-
tial election, and at a time when it was very
doubtful which ofthe candidates would receive

gree of moral courage seldom known on such
an occasion. A gentleman of good standing
in society, but in very limited circumstances
-wislied a small officr nder the government,
and applied to Mr. A. who was then Secreta-
ry of State, to use his influence in procuring
it. The applicant was vice-president of a re-
ligious society, consisiin‘ of more than
1,500,000 members, by w tom he was highly
respected, and over who ‘ he had considera-
ble influence. It was siiggested to Mr. A. by
some ofthe gentleman’s friends,the effect that
such an ally would have on the election.-—
Mr. A. promptly replied, “ that he had not ta-
ken, nor eve r would take, any part, either di-
rectly or indirectly‘, iirpromoting his own elec-
tion.” The gentleman obtained the office he
sought ; but not through tlié iuflrieiice of Mr.
Adams. This relation was had from the
‘gentleman himself. 1
Mr. JVaah, who is iievt-r at a loss for a good
story, whether it be true or _otherwise, says
that “ a purse has been made up b_y the lead-
ing federalists to pay Mr. VValsh for writing a
history ofthe arlmiiiistratious of Adams, Jef-
ferson and llladison, for the purpose of eleva-
ting that ofthe. former, and putting down the
latter.” Mr. Adams,according to Mr. Noali’s
story, has some hand in this matter.

Sharon Canal.-'I‘he election of Directors
for the Sharon Canal Company takes place
this day. The capital stock is so much as is
necessary to complete the work with the ad-
dition of $4,500 to be employed in banking
operation. The proposed route ofthe canal
is said to be through the towns of Sharon, A-
nienia. Dover. Pawlings, Paterson, Souili-
East, Soniers, Nortli-Salem, New-Castle. and
through the country between Saw Mill River
_and the Bronx to New-York ; or if this route
is impracticable by some other one to the
North River.

The people ofVermont are wide awake on
the subject of uniting the waters of Lake
Champlain with those ofthe Connecticut riv-
cr, by means ofa canal through the valley of
Onion River. Iftliis project is practicable
iiiticli ofthe trade ofthe northern part ofthe
state of New York,-and ofVermout, will find
its way to this state.

The title of a clittr‘ch.-goiitgpeoplc has bare-
toforc appropriately lieloiigerl to the inhabit-
ants oftliis state, but otir New-York friends
may new challenge it for themselves, if it be
trite, as one of their papers mentions, that in

houses of public worship.

Olive Oil is said to be a certain remedy a-
gainst the bite of the Rattlesnalte, and other
poisonous reptiles. The writer who cotiimu-
nicates this fact to the public first witnessed.
its effects in England, where the experiment
was made in the presence of the members of
the Royal Society of London. A few years
after, when travelling through Pendletoii dis-
trict, S. C. be was applied to to assist in re-
lieving the pain ofa person who had been bit-
ten by a rattlesnake. Having a bottle ofthe
Oil in his pocket lie hastened to the sufferer,
and found his face and head extremely swol-
len and black ; his tongue enlarged and ex-
tending out ofhis mouth ; his eyes almost out
oftlieir sockets; his senses gone, and every
appearance ofimmediate death. He imme-
diately poured down his throat 22 table spoons
full of the oil, and applied some ofit to the
woiind—its effects were almost instantaneous
—convulsions soon followed, and in 30 min-
utes it operated both as an emetic and cathar-
tic, after which the swelling went dowti, and
in two hours he cotild articulate, and finally
perfectly recovered. The writer -lias since
known many similar cures by the same means.
In one instance it cured a woman who had
been bitten by a mad dog.

J1 son of.é1nak.-.—Among the passengers fr.
foreign ports lately arrived at Philadelphia, is
a gentleman ofthe name ofMagee, from [re-
laiid, who is said to be 8 feet 9 inches high.

The Ex-Empress Iturbide is now at New-

'We will relate an anecdote of Lafayette,
which we had from Mr. Hall. a" very respecta-
ble farmer, living near Portsrnotith, at whose
house he quartered while there during the
revoltition, which is highly characteristic of
that forethought and prudence, for which he
was always distinguished. After he had been
someiiiue an inmate of Mr. Hall’s house, it
was discovered thattlie General’s body ser-
vant, a tall Swiss, occupied the bed, while he
himself, wrapped in a blanket, slept on the
floor. This we believe, was subsequent to
the capture of the British General, Prescott,
by Capt. Barton. The good people of the
house not knowing how to accotint for such
an extraordinary circumstance, and being ap-
prehensive that their young guest was dissatis-
tied with his lodgiiig, took the liberty of ques-
tioning him on the subject—to which he smil-
ing, replied. in rather iiuperfect English-

Insertion of .lIarrmgcs.——Notliiiig can be

to find the marriage ofthe Russian Secretary
of Location at W'aslriiigton, tn the amiable
Miss Lee, occupying a distinguislied place a-
mong the register ofdeaths; though, now we
think ofit, in Russia the Priest concludesthe
marriage ceremony with.thcse words, “me-

that he is mortal. and his life is as brittle and

Tarr_ing and Feather-t'ng'.-—Althougli this
method ofavenging real or fancied wrongs, is
not actually of American origin, yet by many
it is supposed to have originated in this coun-
try. Holiiislieatl, in his Chronicles ofEng-
land, publishes the following ordinance of
_Richard Coeur deLion,forpunishing-seamen:

“ If any man be taken with theft Qt‘ nielcery,
and thereof convicted, lieslr-all have his head
polled, and hot pitch poured upon his pate,
antl upon that the feathers of some pillow ‘oi-
ctislrion S-l*"ii(.‘ll aloft, that he may thereby be
