A Little bit of Rnmcmcc took pl.-ice in
our village lastevening. which we, as a
public chionicler of events, feel bound to
notice, though we -have not yet become ac-
quainted with the circumstances in the case.
Last evening, then. about half past seven
_o"cloc.k. a young man. whose mine we learn
is Miller. presented himself at the house of
\Vidow Shadraclr Hoyt, saluted a young
woman who has been boarding with Mrs.
Hoyt for some weeks past, called her his
wife, and said he- wanted to hold some con-
.-versation with her. She. however denied his
-request, and refused to have any thing to say
'to him; and upon his being ordered to leave
the house, he‘di'ew from his pocket a patent
-pistol with six revolving barrels, and declar-
ed that he would not quit the premises alive
‘witbout his wife. Then the uproar com-
menced-—-tbe wile fainted—and the other
women in the house screamed “murder” at
‘-the top of their voices.ti1l the whole village
became alarmed,and in a short time the
" house was filled with neighbors, and the
:inquirv was in every one’s mouth as to what
--was the matter. Some answered that mur-
der had been committed, others said it was a
whig meeting, and a third party vowed Gov.
Dorr was in the house, and the Algerines
’-from Rhode Island were in pursuit of him.
-But after the excitement was somewhat
‘abated, the story went from mouth t.o mouth
that the hero ofiour tale, was the‘ lawful hus-
;band of the-young woman who played hero-
ine in the tragedy; and in consequence of
family difficulties, she had left hirii and was
staying here without his consent Tlir-_y

‘very respectable; and the house where the
-fracas took place being one ofthe mostfash-
ionable in town, ‘it created quite an excite-
-ment among our good citizens. and it has
furnisbed gossip enough to last for a week.
The young man seeing his wife in a state
of inscnsibility, siiffered himsclfto be disarm-

of Liberty this morning at l0o’cloc_k. The
hall was entirely filled by one of the.-— most
talented and eniliusiiistic bodies of men that
ever convened within itstimc honored walls,
representing every part of. the old Common-
wealth.
The Committee nominated for President,
_Hon. ‘ABBOTT LAWRENCE. of Boston, who
was unanimously chosen. The usual num-
ber of Vice-Presidents and Secretaries were
appointed. Among the former wasa vener-
able soldier of the Revolution.
After a most appropriate prayer by Rev.
WM M. ROGERS, of Boston. the convention
proceeded to nominate candidates for Gov-
ernor, and Lieutenant Governor viva troicc.
\V.hen the Pro-side--nt called for nominations.
one name, and one only, burst from every
lip, and that was the nainc of JOHN DAVIS;
he was nominated by acclamation as the
Whig candidate for Governor. Hon. Geo.
Hull, the present incumbent, was then nom-
nated in the same manner, and with the some
enthusiasm for Lieutenant Governor.
It was then moved that the Convention
proceed to iiomiuate candidates for President
and Vice-President of the United States.-—
Biit one man was thought of for the first
office, and the name of Hizxnv CLAY was
echoed and re-echoed from every part of the
hall. The question was put and carried by
a thundering aye; and when the negative
was called, not a single response was heard.
The niembi-rs of Congress then sprang to
their feet, at the suggestion of old father
CLOUcir, a democrat of the olden time. and
gave to [-1.-irry of the West NINE ciinnns,
and every one of which made the very walls
of the old Cradle tremble! JOHN DAVIS was
nominated for Vice-President with no less
enthusiasm.

The Right Spirif.—-Among other topics
ofdiscussion between Mr. VVt‘llSl.t’f and Lord

letter:
‘The American Goveriimcnt then. is pre-
pared to say that the practice of iiupressiiig
seamen from American vessels cannot be
hereafter allowed totake place. That prac

not recognize. and is invariably attended by
consequences so unjust. so iujurii-us. and of
such formidable magnitude as cannot be sub-
mitted to.
In the early disputes between the two gov
ernnierits on this so long contested topic, the
distinguished person to whose hands ‘were
firsi intrusted the seals of this di-partmr-iii
declared, that ‘the siiiiplcst rule will be. that

that the sr-anieu on board are such.
Fifty years’ experience. the utter failure of
