roe Edwards. for Forgery. came on before the
Court of Oyer and Terirtiner, New York on
Tuesday,the 7=h, and was submitted to the
jury onlllonday evening following. The verdict
returned was Guilty!
The appearance of the prisoner on the return
of the Jurors irtto the court room. and at the
time of givingthcir verdict, is thus noticed in
the American: "When the Jurors first made
their itppetrance, no one in Court was aware
oftheir having agreed upon a verdict. In fact
it was confidently reported that they had been
unable to agree; and the pl’l.~0llPl', impressed
perliaps with the belief. preserved his eqnanim-
ity iiudistiirbcil until in answer to the. question,
wliethertliey had found a verdict, the Foreman
replied that they bad When the verdict was
announced he turned a little pale, asked for

while to appear unconcerned." The punish-
ment is iniprisontneut for not less than 2 or
ntore than 5 years.
It it is already known to our readers that the
Legislature passed "a law annulling the charter
of the Mechanics Batik of New Haven. in case
the bank persisted in its refusal to pay its share
ofthe Commissioners‘ expenses. This exaction
on the part of the assembly. is said to be unjust
and wrongful, inasmuch as the institution was
exempted by its charter from this species oftax-
ation on account of a liberal bonus paid in lieu
thereof. The sum. which was some 50 or 60
dollars, the bank, has at length announced its
readiness to pav.

We two weeks since noticed under our obituary
head the death of Matthew Marvin, Esq. of Wilton.
The following account of the deceased, has since
been handed in for publication.—Editor.
In recording the death of this venerable servant of
Christ, so deeply and justly lamented by a large cir-
cle of relatives, it is dtie to his memory to say, that
he was an Israelite indeed. Few men have sustain-
ed throughout a long life of usefulness it more un-
blemished reputation or sincere devotedness to the
cause of his Redeemer. In his death society has lost
one of its most useful members-—the church an elli-
cient ofiicer, advocate and friend-—his family, one
eminently qualified to counsel and guide them, and
who loved to commend them in prayer to_a covenarit
kee ing God. In early life he pursued his scholastic
stu ies under the auspices of the venerable Dr. Lew-
is and graduated at Yale in 1785. Feeble health
pitevented the study of ntcdicine, which he intended
as a. profession, and be subsequently embarked in
and strict integrit§*'_i_1_t all"'his business transactions,
and his usefulness in civil life was extensive. A dis-
creet counsellor in seasons of doubt and difficulty-
an able pacificator in time of strife and angry debate,
and an eflicient benefactor in want and distress. Of-
fices of responsibility were sustained by him with
horror to himself. For it number of years he repre-
sented this town in the legislature of the state, and
for 8 time was a judge in one of our courts. But it
was his piety that gave such intrinsic excellence to
his character as (1 man, while no one was more un.
assuming in his department or unwilling to claim
credit for what he was enabled to )erfortn,‘c it is no
extravagattce to affirm, that in his ife and conversa-
tion, the Christian character was entbodied—like his
tnaster, it was his pleasure to go about doing good.
he was a matt of prayer. He honored God in a prac-
tical acknowledgement of his being. protection and
providence. which did not fail to give solemnity and
hitrtiility to his attitude, voice and languiige when en-
gaged in that act ofdevotiott. He was for :1 number
of years 0. member and officer of the Congregational
cltnrclt in this place. and when health permitted,
piitictnztl in his attendance upon all the institutions
of religion. The interests of Zion at large dwelt
warmly upon his heart, and gave vitalitv to its servi-
ces. An efficient cozidjutor ofhis pastor at ltome, he’
gave liberally for the evztngelizing of the world. As
a cotittsellor he was prudent, and displaved a mind
richly imbued with the spirit of Christ. 'He has let‘;
a testimony to the excclleiicy of the gospel no one
can tnistalte. These he manifested in all the reltitiortsi
of lif'e—:ts a kind ltiisbziud, an .afi'cctioit.'ite fatlier. it
warm friend ; and though very enrgetic both in bodv
and mind till within 48 hours previous to his deiitli,
he hae evidently been anticipating the suttttnons. by
“setting his hottsc itt order.” He was permitted fo
live to adjust his temporal afiitirs. to visit his absent
children and relations in his more immediate vicixiitv.
and to witness large accessions to the church with
which he was connected as fruits of it powerful_re.vival
through which he had just passed, and in wltich he
had sitccessftilly labored. VVhile his imtnediate rela-
tives will ctnbalm his memory in their warmest affec-
tions, others in the vicinity and elsewhere. will drop
the tear of regret that he is no longer in their midst.
His last illness was sudden and violent, attended with
excruciating pains, prostratiug at once his strength
and rendering it impossible for him to say but little.
Feeling this to be his last illness, his own righteous-
ness was I_l0llllllg in his own eyes. He depended
alone on the merits of his Rerleetner for salvation.
Death was divested of its terrors. His ltope hit: with
interest, was fotuided on the rock of ages. His record
is on high. 8'. we doubt not an open .2 abitndaiut en-
trance is admiitistered to ltittt into the kingdom of our
God. Free front solicitudc for himself, an confident
in the hope of the gospel, with composnrche looked
forward to a happv release a a heavenly rest. He
retained his mental faculties to the last moments of
his life, when in faith. hope and peace, he entered
iitto that rest where he ttow inherits the promises.
Ours is the befitting prayer—“ Help Lord, for the
godly man ceaseth; for the faithful fail from among '
the children of ttien.”-—Co.iriitt.'t~'ic.i'ri:n.
