At a meeting of the citizens of New-Haven
on VVedoe.sdav last, it was voted to be inex-
pedient for the city to expend any more mo-
ney upon the F.irmington (‘.‘an:il, or to l_cz1n
the credit of the city to the “ New T‘L'lVt‘l'i
anti N0l’1llfl?l1[)ttin Cotnp:itiy.” The vote of
18th June last authorising it further loan by
the city (the CCl‘l.lf1'3.'.1lt"S not being yct issued)
was repealed. The New ti-art.-ii [lei-altl. in
ie"ercnce to these pi'oct=etliiigs says,——
The toil and labor of twenty years are
thus sacrificed in a single day, -for it is geri-
er-illy votive-.lc-d that no further efforts will
be made by the Company to put the Canal
in order and keep up a vavigation.
The llInll7i.cer.——A paragraph is going
the rounds stating that a siilor belonging to
the U. S. ship Vandalia, by the name Liv-
ingston, was hung on the l0th inst '="for as-
saulting an’ officer. A corrcspondctit of the
Army and Navy Clironiclc, undi-r date of
the_llth inst, s:iys that he teas not hung,
and adds that the scaffold was i'iggetl—tlie
grave dug, and the coffin made-—in fact, eve-
ry preparation perfect. At, __the'appointcd
time the yellow fl g, signal"‘for execution,
wasruu up at the lore-royal mast head of
the frigate, a gun fired, the crews of all the
ships lI]lISl.(3l‘t'.(l on deck. and a generzil order
from the Commodore, relating to the melan-
choly spectacle, soon to t:ike place read to
them. They were then permitted to cluster
upon the fa rccastle and booms, to be able the
better to witiiess the execution. The‘ man,
.43’-eesscd in white, and having on the white
ccip, was led out upon the scaffold, rope ad-
justed, and the chaplain attt-ndiug with his
prayer-book. The Chaplain having {in-
ished, the marine Zoflicer iias seen to ad-
vance and read what was supposed his death-
warrant, but which was soon known by
signal from the frigate to be his pardon by
the President.

The way .4cl/iiinislralion -Eclilms are
]ia.irl——lhe 7:eracit_i/ of the Postmaster Gen-
cra.l.—Somc time ago. ‘Mr. Graves of Ky.
brought under the notice of the House of
’tcprescntittive.s, the fact that a person of the
name of Robinson was pc:‘mi'.tc<l to draw his
".11-ary as a clerk in the Post Office Depart-
ment, while he was actually (~n_-gagetl in edit-
ing a paper devoted to the support of the ad-
ininistration, at Frarikfort, Kentucky; and
that the said Robinson employed a substitute,
for a small compensation, to discharge the
duties of the clerkship. This charge was
boldly denied by the head ofthc Post Otiice
Dep.irtment, in a letter full of his character-
istie pertncss and insolence. It now appears
that an order given by Robinson for the a-
mount ol his monthly salary, including a
period oftiine when he was not discharging
the duties of a clerk here, but was engaged
at Frankfort in taking care of the interests of
“ the party,” was (Lcl'll»fl-f/i'z/ yiaicl a few days
after Mr. Graves publicly made the cliargt-.
On Thursday of last week Mr. Graves re-
peated it in his place, and added- the above
statement, and bestowed on Mr. Amos Kon-
dall the appellation his unblushing effront-
ery entitled him to.—Marlisom'an.
Gen. Jackson, Mr. Van Buren and the
whole party in 1834, condemned the Sub-
Treasury as “disorgauizing and revolution-
ary, and subversive ofthe fundamental prin-
ciples of the Government, and of its entire
practice from 1789 to the present time.
Sincethen, the President has consulted the
monarchies of Europe. Hear what he says:
“I have addressed inquiries to twenty-
seven Governments of Europe, and /ind that
twenty-two have adopted the Sub-T2'easwr_i/.”
Piuzsinr-:N'r VAN BUREN. c
, These twenty-two governments are the
most despotic of any in Europe, which, we
suppose, is the principal reason why Van
Buren now recommends a Sub-Treasury.

New London Ga.2:etlc.—Mr. Hyde, the a-
ble editor of the New London Gazette, has
announced his disconnection with that old
and ‘respectable paper. He has not an-
nounced his successor. yet we suppose of
course there will be one. as the paper is a
very valuable one and should be well
sustained.

T’/'az'lo2's.——Tlie honest intelligent men,
who have become convinced that Mr. Van
Buren has deceived and oppressed -them, and
have heretofore left his party, are stigma-
tized by the Van Buren editors as traitors.
Our fathers were once subjects of the
King of England, but the king deprived
them oftheir rights and tyrannizcd over them
they rebelled from his authority and set up
a government for themselves. The king of
England therefore called them ilrailors, and
those who rebel against Martin Van Buren
are just such traitors. 1Ve believe that the
ballot boxes next November will show an
immense army of such traitors.

and patronage. It is very popular and very
powerful in New York. The Blue Book,
just publishrd at \Vashington, discloses the
reason. There are four hundred and nine-
ty-four officcrs attaclicd to the Custom
House, drawing annually for their compen-
sation, the sum of $543.396, averaging near-
ly $1200 per head. Such an army of em-
ployers ought to make a worse government
than this popular. I

Langzzage of Later/e7's.—If a man would,
according to law, give to another an orange
. ‘ _ 1
instead of saying, "I give you that orange,”
called, in legal pliraseolog-V, “an absolute
conveyance of all right and title therein,” the
phrase would run thus:—“1 give you all
and singrular my estate and interest, right,
title, and claim, and advantage of, and in that
orange. with all the rind, skin, juice, pulp,

hereafter, or in any other deed oijidcbts, in-
strument or insti‘uincnts of what'~ nature or
kind socver, to the contrary in any wise, not-
withstanding; with much more of the same
effect.” Such is the language of lawyers;
and it is very gravely held by the must learn-
ed men among them, that by the omission of
any of these words, the right to the said or-
ango would not pass to the person for whose
use the same was intended.
The New Haven Herald says that “the
-Log Cabins and hard cider go down dread-
ful hard with the Locos.” They are like
ipecac and tartar emetic to their delicate sto-
machs. To ease themselves of this dilemma
they have just begun to discoverthat “Gran-
ny Harrison” does not live in a log cabin,
and afllucuce,” and. that his cellars are
wines.” VVe suspect that by-and-by they
will begin to find out that he is not an “o
granny,” and before another year comes
round, that he is one of the best “old demo-
crats, dyed in the wool.” Those Locos who
are looking for the spoils, are made of won-
derfully pliant rnatcrials, .'nd the word for
next year will be “Pass——presto---change.”
