.'1‘u’r: -New T.Yr:An.—With this number we
enter upon anew year. and, it becomes us in all
courtesy. to tender to our readers our best wish-
_, -es foritheir happiness and prosperity. As we
V disclaim all dwarfishness of soul, we shall not
egtclude from the benefits of ourbenediction.
that classof readers who avil themselves of the
fruits ofouir ‘toil withoutgonee thinking ofohr ne-
cessities. V 4 I
To 1840 we bid adieu with something ofa
isaddenrd heart,for5th'e. hand that st rews blessings
‘we wishgstill to clasp. But. go-thou shalt be
cheidiu grateful remembrance. Thy lessons of
wisdom.-too, shall be our companions. May.
thy teachings have a salutary influence upon
‘those who have played a more conspicuous part.
_The evils which came in thy train, we will bu-
ry in the ocean of the past. _
The new year. what will it be ? what great
events either for good or for evil. are to mark its
history '! It is auspiciously begun. VVho doubts
that its promise will be realized? The country.
which ha_s been travailing under the sufi'erings
of misruie. is aho‘t'tt'to be delivered. Its afiitirs
will be taken from the hands ofthose who have
wasted its substance, and infused infection and
disease into its vitals. 5; placed where its mala-i
dies will be healed, and health and activity
return to the body politic. As our national in-
terests advance. individual interest will receive
a corresponding impulse. Is not the prospec,
.a.che_ering one? and may we not repeat the
sentiment, A Herr: New Yuan!
A Nuv MOVE !—The Locos have got their
courage up to the sticking place at‘ last. John
M; Niles is to be laid on the shelf. This is the
. object of some portion at least of the-democracy.
judging from a communication which lately
made its appearance inithe Norwich Aurora and
has since been endorsed by the New Haven Re-
gister. recommending the name of Daniel Bur-
rows,ofMiddletown. for presentation to the par-
ty of this state as a suitable candidate for gov-
ernor at the nextelection. The feeling has been
more or less prevalent for a length oftirne, that
"Mr. Niles was a mill stone to the neck of the
party. Tltey have tugged hard against the gra-
vitating tendencies oftheir burden. The defeat
oflast spring brought them to the determination
'of running a new candidate. To this measure,
the Times has not yet, we believe, given its as-
-sent.and it is shrewdly conjectured in some quar-
ters that the refractory ones will yet be whipped
into the traces. The Central Committee have
called a convention to assemble at Middletowu
on-the third Weduesdayof February.
Mom: Murtnr~:rts.—Scarce an exchange pa per
comes to hand without a recital of some cold-
blooded murder. We have now, before the utind
;-,h_as recovered from _the horro‘r_(s.of the Newark
: tragedy, the. details of another most revolting
- case of butehery at Fallsburg.'Sullivan Co. N.
- Y.,about‘a fortnight since.
burg. of Rockland, who had some difficulty
Cornslius Harden-
with Anthony Hasbrouek, Esq. about the divis-
ion of some property, went to the house ofthe
latter, armed with a rifle and pistol. and being
prevented from using the first, mortally wound.
I Hashrouck by a shot from the pistol. and after-
" wards stabbed him in a most brutal ntanner.—
Mrs. H. was present. a'nd was severely wound-
ed in attempting to aid, her husband.
The particulars ofthis murder—are revolting
beyond measure. Mr. Hasbronck was one of
the prominent men_ in Sullivan Co. Two
years since he was the V_. B-. candidate for
Congress. Hardenberg was wounded as is sup-
posed, in the atfray. He did not attempt to es-
.éttpc. and he is now in prison awaiting his trial.
The extensive stables connected with the Nor-
walk Hotel. recently destroyed by fire, have
been rebuilt on a more commodious and extend-
ed scale. and with an energy and dispatclt char-
acteristic of ‘mine host.’
It is due to the Protection Insurance Co. to
state. that so far as the losses by this fire fell
upon them. they were met with promptness, to
the satisfaction ofall parties. The liberality to
the engine company is also worthy of notice and
commendation.
IMMIRSIOVN.--The ordinance of baptism by
immersion, was administered to two individuals.
(females) on Sunday last. by the pastor of the
Baptist society in this town. The place selected
was that usually resorted to that purpose. the
head of the pond [adjacent to the Bridge. The
, . ice having been previously removed, the immer-
tion took place about 1 o'clock. r. M. while the
mercury was ranging 20 degrees below the
freezing point.
It has been ascertained that it was aRevenue
Cutter that fired into the packet ship South A.
rnerica. in the English Channel. The excuse
offered is that the packet showed no colors. Mr.
Stevensonhas the matter in hand, and no doubt
exists that the commander of the cutter will be
. cashiered.
We learn that the magnificent war steamer
Kamschalka. built for the Russian government.
will be taken out to Russia by American offi.
‘cers and seamen. who have volunteered for the
service. The K. is taking in her machinery at
Jersey City.
Mr. H. A. Mitchell has retired from the edi-
torial management of the Hartford Times, as
appears by announcement in that paper.
The feeling of bitternesss between Benton at-.
' « Calhoun seems rather to strengthen than to di-
minishjn its intensity- It is certain Mr. Ben-
ton never lets any opportunity of reviling his ri-
vsfpass unitlIp'roved,and speaks of him often in

Tar: Ltnrar. Snr'r.--Mr. Moses H. Grinuell

pending between them has been \\lll)(1l'8Wn.
The editors in,thei.' acknowledgement say.
that they are fully satisfied that the statement
received by them front their correspondent in
the city of New York, relative to eertaiu_'frauds
alleged to have been comrnittetl at the elections
in that city in 1838. that Moses H. Grinnell
had decamped. and that a warrant had been is-
sued for ltis arrest. undthat he alsohad been
very conspicuous among these conspirators,
was wholly incorrect, and had no fountlation
whatever in truth; and they now make this

NEW YEAR'S, REFLECTIONS.
O I stop, ye restless wheels of Time. and let '
Me gather up some fragment ofthe past.
Another Year is gone! another year
Detached from my short life! 0, pause and rest
Thy weary piriions fora while, old Time,
Nor hasten onward with such noiseless tread.
Thou bearest hence the sons of rneu e‘er they
Can think; then. with their warmest blood, thy
' old _
i1h}npnnio_n Death. gluts his insatiate thirst-—
Bloviis-.out the lamp of life, and burys deep
The last remaining spark of lingering fire
Beneath the smouldering ashes of the torrtb.
\Vell hast thou journey'd since creation's dawn.
Six thousand years. and onwartl—onward still;
Still hand in hand Vt ith Death; and still like him
Crushing the nations ’neath thy pond‘rous car.
Unlike God's other creatures, thou has not
A soul attuned to sympathy for man.
Thou art like Death, invisible—-like him,
Relentless. too. The mangled fortn ofearth
Must be consumed. and heave its last,
Deep. dying groan to heaven, e'ertltou’wilt rest.
I know not whether to condemn or ’plaud
Thy unremitting _fnithf_ulne:~e, O, Titus!
And dost thou grudge the breatlt that thou hast
given. [soonl
That thou should'st steal it hence from man so
Perehancetlte being that created thee. _
And sent thee on a mission to our world.
VVill call the hence e‘er long. and swallow up
Thyself. O time. in his eternity. 1
Say restless creature. dost thou dread the day
When thou shalt poise upon thy tireless wing?
Thou who hast numbered centuries by scores.
And thrown the generations ofthe world
Back in the night oflong forgotten years"!
Thou who hast laughed at kings as impotent.
And princes as the feeblest things ofearth?
Thou who hast seen mankind like insects strive,
And nations riot in each other's blood’! [strange
Well, aged Titne, this world of ours. whose
Career thou witnes=eth. shall die with thee.
An angel's form shall lift its hand to heaven.
And swear by God's eternity, that thou
Shalt die.
But 0! return my hasty muse.
Nor fly so swiftly‘down the stream of years.
Thou canst annihilate all time—all space-
Leap the abyss of ages long gone by,
And revel mid the glories ofthe past.
Thy faithful hand-maid-Memory, shall come
And kindle up afresh its glowipg fires.
Childhood. and youth, from Time's dark grave
shall come.
And flitting images ofotlter days.
The glowing landscape of my former years. ‘
Shall seem as pure-and bright as when a child,
I tripp'd alongits flowery path and plucked
Each honied dew-drop. sparkling in the sun. ‘
A crowd of thought shall rush across my soul,
And bend my spirit to its sweeping tide.
Nor will I be among the thoughtless herd
That press so madly down the stream of time.
I do not wish its murdered ghost to haunt-
My dying hour, nor plague me when my short
Life shall be o‘cr. ‘ - i _.

Slate «DeI1ts.——It is stated that the sever
:11 States of this Union are in debt $200,000,-
000, This is a greatfact, and isbeginning
to be one that excites attention and even ap-
prehension, particularly inthose States where
the time has come. or is near at band, when
interest and principle must be paid. This.
we learn is the condition of the debts of some
of the States. and the result is looked for
with intense interest by every right minded
man, who rejoices in the honor and prosper-
ity of his country, and would feel grieved at
her dishonor. In the language of a corres-
pondent of the ‘N. Y. Journal of Commerce,
we trust that the‘American People “ will
falsify. not their contracts. but the croakings
oftheir aristocratic enemies in Europe.”
School Lmzds.——The School Lands of the
State of Michigan amount to rising 1,200,-
.000 acres. Should they sell at $5 the acre,
they would produce an annual interest of
-$364,000 for the support of the schools; be-
ing near 31500 for every town in the State.
