RUM'S DOING's.;—A thrill of horror was felt
throughout this community, on Wednesday
evening last, from the announcement that a sui-
cide had been committed in its very midst, A
young man by the name of Robert Drake, a sail
‘Pallet’. came into this place a few years since
rom New York, we believe, in appearance, at
least, quite respectable. He soon after opened
an oyster-stand and grogery, which was the ef-
ficient means oflaying the foundation, if not of
fixing upon him habits ofinternperance. He al.
so married a young girl of the place, and pur-
chased a small place on the VVest batik of the
harbor. Sincethis his downward progress has
been rapid. W'ithin a few weeks, we are in-
formed, he became a victim to that horrible dis-
ease, (which we may suppose in its liallucina-
tions affords a striking prelude to the sufferings
ofthe infernal pit) mania apolu. Underitsin-
fluence, he had been under the vigilant watch
of his family and friends for some days previous
to that upon which he committed the fatal act_
On the evening oftliat day, as the rumor is, at
about 8 o'clock he wentitito a part of his house
occupied by a relative as a slioeni-a.ker’s shop.
\Vhile this relative
gave his attention to getting the tobacco, Drake
seized a shoe knife from his bench and with a
single effort itiflicted a most ghastly and fatal
wound upon his neck, severingentirely the jug-
ular vein and the windpipe. He lived but about
an hour and a half after its pr-rpctration. A
frienll, who \\ as present at the time life took its
departure, represents the scene as one, hard in-
deed to witness. The wailiiigs of the wife, atid *

L.uJn:’s FAIR-—l[!I1l'1SlI10l. be overlooked, that
the Ladies of the First Congregational Society
of this town, will hold a Fair for the sale ofthe
various wares, and merchandise which go to
make up the stock in trade on such occasions,
on \Vednesday of the present week, 3d instant.
A.s the note ofpreparation has been heard for
some time,and as there has been an audible, as
well as visible fluttering among the young ladies
in the region ofthe heart, in the endeavor to have
tliingin apple-pie order, we may expect the nice
thing. The place of holding the fair has been
changed from the Lodge of tliel O U F5, to the
room of Skiddy’s new store. The invitation is
general. Bachelors and Beaux emphatically in-
clued.
IN A BAD VVAv.——\Ve saw a_h—i—iice of young
ladies marching through one of the principal
streets ofthe village, on Saturday last, carrying,
each a large sized doll, hugged closely, and with
a very matronly air and show of affection, to
their tender bosoms. VVe did not hear that they
met, in their course, any of our bachelor friends,
which was very fortunate, else a fainting scene
might have been enjoyed.
New Haven has had another astronomical en-
tertainment. A splendid meteor of “Damascus
green,” llllel'ml2(C(l with other gorgeous colors,
performed sundry ft-tes ofgrand and lofty turn-
bliiig, near that place on Monday night last week.
Sornetliirty retiiova's have taken place in the
N. Y. Custoni lIouse———attioug others, ‘Country
McClusk_v,’ the fighting man, and Messrs. Her-
rick atid Ropes, formerly ofthe ‘Aurora.’
i‘>1£xtco.—— Ve learn nothing of peculiar or
definite interest with regard to the difficulties
with Mexico. There is coiisiderahle war spirit
among portions ofthe Military in some of the
Southern and V/'esterii States, and forces con-
two slumbering and unconscious litt'e ones, and 1
the general shudder that was seen upon tliel
countenances of those who had upon the roport, i
been gathered, gave to the scene an air of terri-
ble and sickening gloom. VVhether any oftbose
who by three cent installments helped this un-
happy being into the presence of his Maker with

l'lARLE~\l RAH. Roan E_\'TEi\'SION.—A communi-
cation in the Albany Argus, gives the following
information in regard tothe Harlem Railroad
extension. _
Immediately after the passage ofthe new char-
ter, a corps of engineers was organized, who
have since been diligently engaged in surveying
the country north of White Plains, the present
terminus ofthe road, with a view to the selec-
tion ofthe most favorable route. The location
is nowcomaileted to the nortlien line of \Vest-
chester county, 53 miles from the city of New
York, and this portion will be put under contract
without delay.
The maximum inclination upon the extention
thus far is thirty feet per mile.
On that part ofthe road already constructed,
there are inclinations exceeding thirty feet per
mile; btit it is the intention of the Company to
re-model this portion to correspond with the gra-
dients adopted on the extension.
THE TA.RIFF.——TllE‘t'e are some very antago-
iiistical ideas entertained upon the subject ofthe
Tariff atnong the opponents of that law. The
Journal of Commcrce,—free trade loco,—puts
down as a leading fact to be "set down and re-
membered,” that
“A high tariff does not prevent excessive im-
portationc.”
The Secretary of the Treasury intimates, very
clearly and conclusively, that the tariff must be
reduced to the revenue standard. _
How is it that ‘excessive importations’ under
a high tariff do not raise sufficient revenue?
Tell us that Mr. Secretary, or Mr. Journal-

THE BE_GTl:tNING-—GAlNES’ FLURRY:'
A letter from VVashington to a gentleman in
Baltimore, says:
“There is nothing new here except that
somebody, I see, has been frightening or
hoaxing Gen. Gains, with a shadow of 10.
000 Mexicans marching into Texas. And
the old gentleman has forthwith made ‘a
requisition upon the Governor of Louisi-
ana for 1000 militia. I wonder ifthe Tex-
ans intend to leave us to do all the fight-
ing, if there is to be any, and remain them-
'7.-:3 quietly at home. Their decision and
course of action would seem to be adelib-
crate design to fleece “Uncle Sam” ‘in the
shape of enormous charges for provisions,
supplies, &c. Think ofa steamboat being

usual time, to carry important despatahes
to Texas! It is monstrous! VVe shall
have the Florida _.War over again, with
such improvement in extravagance as have
been suggested by eXpeI‘1ence- It . IS
abominable that we shall have to pay so
much for the Tyler and Polk /tumbug, for
the -especial atnusement and benefit of ‘the

under the plea ofnot guilty, offered in evidence

was objected to, on account of its informality
and rejected by the court.

was no penal statute in force, relating to the
subject, 2d if there was any statute in existence’
it was so ambiguous in its terms, that the Jury
could not convict under it, 3dly, Tliatifthe sale
