The Attorney General contended that his con. duct and his contradictions were proof of his guilt, and that it was utterly impossible that the wounds could have been the result or the same blow, and of course could not be accidental. The Chief Justice charged the . Jury—that it was necessary for the Government to prove the death of the person named in the indictment, end that it was attended with circumstances that rendered it felonious. There could in this case, be no doubt of the death of the person, the only question was, whether it was by a cri minal act, or a misadventure, an excusable one. If criminal, whether murder or manslaughter.— There was not sufficient evidence to support an indictment for manslaughter; the only question for the Jury was, whether the Prisoner was guilty or not of murder. There were many circumstances in the conduct of the Prisoner, which had bea► ad duced as the evidence of oceuce, mas t . as evi dence of guilt. They were some of them difficult to reconcile with Ins intioceuce, but othars mars difficult to reconcile to his guilt. But none of these are of positive character, but all equivocal. The natural excitement on such au occasion would account for some, and if there were doubts as to any, these doubts were, by the principles of law, to weigh the balance in favour of the Prisoner. Upon the whole, the cause appeared barren of incidents, and must rest almost entirely on the view they should take of the wounds. if they conld conceive by any ingenuity that they might have beeti the result of one blow; they mould's& quit the Prisoner ; if they were persuaded that there were incre blows than uue, they must kud him guilty. At seven o'clock the cause was committed to the Jury, and at eleven they returned into Court with a verdict of /Vol Guilty. THEATRR-ROYAL, COVEIVTWARDEN.

WIDNESDAY ■ORNtNO, 4 tetimot. By the assistaate of Joseph E. Sprague, Emig. who kindly prepared for us the fulluering Report of this interesting Trial, after the adjuurnmeat of the Court at II o'clock last night, we are enabled to present it thus promptly to our readers : Yesterday morning, at nine o'clock, a Jury was empannelled for the trial of Gorman Parsons, Jun. • lad of 16, for the murder of Ebenezer Davis. 3d, a lad of 1i years. No witnesses were produced except on the part of the Government. Rhoda' Abbot testified, that on the 16th of May last she was going to Squsm-hill, at live o'clock, p.m. and saw Gorham Parsons coming out of Par don-path, with an axe in his hand. He said he had been ever since two o'clock, and could not get burden of wood, and said, 4' Do you expect to get •ny to-night ?" She told him Yes. She and Betsey Rowe went up to the swamp, and got there in about half an hour, and he came up. Bogey Rowe said to him, How you scared me. lie laughed, and they went out of the swamp. They saw as they weld out Eten. Davis on the hill. He asked if she was there? Betsey said Yes; they went into the swamp again, and Eben. asked if we would stop while lie got a burden ? They said Yes, if you make haste. Then Gorham asked him why he did out go into the swamp and get his burden ? Eben. laughed. Eben. asked Gorham to cut him down a tree—amid he would, if lie would not tell of it. He then asked Gorham why he did not cut that tree just before him? Helmut he had rather go into the awant p. He and Eben. went in ; she and Betsey then went upon the little hill and sat down; Eben. hallooed and asked us to stop fur him. We slid we would. Soon after ws heard somebody screech in the bushes, it was Eben. by the voice; he hallooed and said, " 0 Gorham! Gorham!" We heard a rushing before the voice; we then sow Gorham come right out from the bustler with an axe in his hand, the axe bloody. Gorham came towards us and stopped. Eben. followed out directly after him, and asked us to take hold of his habd, for he was so faint he could not stand. She took hold of his elbow, one hand above and one below; he sat down, and she asked Gorham two or three times to take him up. Gorham then threw down his axe and took him up, and curried bias along; they followed on behind. When he got to Pardon-path, he laid him down and told us he was dead. We ran home. Nothing was said by GorlAn to Ebea. after they came oat of the swamp. Gorham offered him no assistance until they requested him. Gorham and Eben. • were in the swarou together ten minutes. Ttiey heard no conversation between them whilst there; no expression; Gorham did not appear distressed. Heard no voices talking before the screaming; did not hear them cut down the tree; she could not lee them id the swamp. Betsey ROWe fully agreed in testimony with last witness, and added—they never asked Gorham or Eben. any questioas, they were so much f .aiglitened after he coliseum' ; Gorham looked wild, and tears • ran out of hileyea. Rev. M. lifesiet swab passing near Squam-hill, and met childrilerriinnlng in apparent distress ; he asked what tie wetter ? They told him E. Davis was wounded, and probably dyiog ; he saw Davis ascend the hiji with a, quick step, and. his teased after him. t &Tore he arrived Davis was lying down on the grass. As soon as he came up Mr. Davis proposed sending for a physician ; lie felt of hint, and said that it was useless, for he was dead. He asked, who did it ? Gorham Parsons said, " I did it," or, " I cut him." I then asked him how? He said he was cutting down a little tree, end Eben. Davis was holding uff the limb, sod that his axe glanced and struck him. See ing two wounds, one on the back of the bead from the left to the right ear, three inches in length, and one and a half inches in depth, the other in the face, splitting the jaw bone, I thought it proper to inquire into it. Mr. Davis, Mr. Knowlton, and myself, desired Gorham to go to the spin!, before any one else was there; we went with hint. When we had got about 30 or 40 rods, Gorham solid. " I am sorry I did this." They went tracing the blood for half a mile; they ascended a little hill, where the axe lay; Mr. Davis took it up, saw blood and hair on the inner corner of the axe. I could nut go into the swamp as 1 was unwell, but Mr. Knowl ton and Mr. Davis went in with Gorham. I pass. ed along the edge of the swamp, and came to the stump of the tree he had cut down ; the tree was separated from the stump 33 feet. They then asked him how he came to cut him; he said he attempted to cut off a lamb. They asked him to shew them the limb—he pointed to a place where a little dry twig was lying about as big Kea pipe stem. Mr. Jewett then said, you never struck • blow to inflict such a wound to cut off such a twig; he then did not pretend he did. They then asked him to show them the limb he was attempt ing to cut ; he looked around, and appeared to be at a loss—Mr. J. then asked hint if the tree was on the child's back when lie struck ; lie said he did not know—Mr. J. then asked whether the tree was lying ou the ground; he replied again he did not know. He then asked him if Davis was standing when he struck ; he raid he did not know. He asked him if the child was stooping down; he answered again lie did not know.— They asked him to stand as lie stood when he struck the child. He took his stand, and Mr..l. bent himself down with his shoulder, and said, " This is the only position in which these two wounds could have been inflicted at one blow ;" he said he believed it was so. He asked, " Did the helve of the axe fly up when you struck ?" He said it did not. They then examined the tree to see if there were any marks of the axe on it— they could find none, except where it was cut down —they could find no blood on the tree; 13 feet beyond the tree, where he said the child stool, and where lie struck at the limb, was a great quantity of blood on the ground. They observed to each other, that it was mysterions, and they asked Gotham whether Eben. had his hat on when lie struck him ; he said he had. The hat Iny there, and we examin ed it amid could find no mark ou it. There leans' a wound on the top of the right arm. an inch and a half long and a quarter of an inch wide, cut through his clothes; another on the right shoulder ; a bruise on the left shoulder, another on the hack of the right shoulder, beyond the wound ; a scratch on the left side of the head, below the wound on the jaw. Mr. J. put on Mr. Knowhon's boots end went into the swamp. Mr. Davis asked Gorham to 'hew where the axe struck the tree. He pointed to a place where the bark had been peeled a week or fort. night before, by a sharp instrument, not an axe.— 'flue blood thirteen feet from the tree covered space as big as the heed of • barrel, slid the bushes were stained a considerable way up. ‘V hen he first saw Gorham, he was six or eight het distance, leaning alpinist a fence, some tears in his eyes ; after they set oat, little or no emotion, and but little sensibility when in the wood. The next day he again asked hint if the axe did nut fly up?— He said No, but it might twist a little. When ?.Ir. J. went, he expected the tree was only partly cut down: saw nothing that made it necessary to cut off a limb of the tree. Gorham discovered 110 seersion to go into the woods. When asked why they carried the tree into the swamp, he said Eben. had part of his burden there, and they were casry . ing it to it. They found his burden as described, ! and a part of his scythe, which Eben, used to cut up his wood. The tree was white maple, three inches at the butt. Gorham mentioned that the tree was entangled, as the reason of his cutting the limb. Parsons has uo father, mud his mother is in low circumstances. John Davis w■s a Mr. Hartley's, near Squirm woods ; heard E. Davis was cut in the woods; he started to the hill, and, as he ascended, saw Gor ham four or five yards distance, with the child in his arms; took the child from Ciorhatn ; finding him dead, laid him down; Mr. Jewett came up and said the child was dead ; Gorhatn said he did it cutting off a limb ; did not hear the conversa tion between him and Gorham, u they went into th e woods; gives generally the same account as Mr. Jewett, ■nd a similar description of the wounds. Gorham said the axe caught or glanced; he said the moment be struck at E. he darted ; that he sprang sood caught him before he tell. The tree was straight and . 15 feet lung, and the SOUTH A M ERICA. The present state of South America merits the particulsr attention of the American merchant, agri culturalist, and manufacturer. A field so vast, and so abundant in all that can invite the exchanges and the intercourse of mankind, was never before opened to human opportunity, and to none are those opportunities of PO much consideration as to the people of the United States. Independent of Mexico. which cannot long remain in Its present distracted state. the population betwee.i the Mexi can Gulf and the eouthern bound of civilization, amounts to nearly twelve millions of people, who produce and consume. Mexico exceeds..six mil lions of the same description. There is no produc tion, nor is there any climate which is not compre hended within the space that we hive here rioted ; for the elevation of that vast range of continent, places it above the influence of that heat which in the same hititudes of Africa and Asia is incongeuial with wholesome temperature. The establishment of the popular representative system iu Columbi.i, decides the cast-of governs meta for all America. The central position of that repubbe, its riches, its numerous sea-ports, its More various products, its internal navigation, communicating with both seas, and open to North East America and Europe, and North West Ame rica and Asia—Peru and Chili will follow the me public..“ regime; La Plata and Mexico will, from a necessity that is too obvious to be mistaken, soon follow in tie acme track. The American merchant should look oboist him in lime, it is in the New World he is to find the means of commerce, which can either command or render him independent of the policy or envy of the Old. It is in South America that North America will find the permanent mart fur her products.of in dustry and art—for the employment of her seamen. Tile South Americans will not maintain any naval estublishnieut ; having within themselves the means of subsisting in abundance and ease, they will be an exporting people ; they will indeed receive from other nations , whatever may be brought ; but it is in nations where the climate is not proli fic that commercial enterprise is necessary. The same motive fur enterprise does not exist at Bogota. or blexlco, or LIMO. for adventuring to the sea, that exiats at London, or Amsterdam, or Bos ton, or New York, which. like Athens, Rhodes, Cathrige, Genoa, and Venice, had tither a steril soil or uo soil ; or is climate locked op to vegeta- Extract from a private letter, dated " PARIS, MONDAY, 9 P.M. " For these two days there have been circulated, on the authority of letters from Vienna, Semite. and other placer, the report of violent disturbances having broken out at Constantinople, which termi nated in the death of the Sultan Mahmoud.— Very different reasons, however, are assigned for this fatal event. Some say that the Janissaries accused the Sultan's Government of being too temporising and tpo indecisive with respect to Russia—that they wished war to be declared forthwith. Another reason given is, the massacre by the Greeks at Tripolizza. The insurrection of the Janissaries is said to have taken place on the e6ih of last month, and to have been continued on the 47th and 48111. The Sultan Mahmoud is re presented as having done every thing that courage could do. He opposed the Janissaries in person, at the head . of a body of troops disciplined after the European manner, which he has always been anxi ous to promote from the commencement of his reign. But the Janissaries were too numerous. They had recourse to the old cruelty otaetting fire to buildings. In their rage they mmascossl Chris tians and Jews; and even Pcra wort witness to their indiscriminate fury. " This news, coupled with some alarms enter tained with respect to the measures of the new Ministry, is said to have produced the panic felt to day on our Exchange.—The renter, which left off on Saturday at 871. 15 c., fell to 85 f. 65c. to-day. " Another report which I send you, though 1 do not by any means vouch for its authenticity, is, that the lives of all the Royal family at Madrid have been attempted, tad that much blood has been shed. " It appears that the present Ministry are deter mined upon assembling an army on the frontiers of Spain. The Duke de Reggio to be placed at the head of it." ♦IZWSA, psceings le. Government has received dispatches from M. de Lutzow, our Ambassador Constantinople., with :deices of the highest importance, but nothing has been publithed. All the merchants of this capital are this day on the alert, iu consequence of the news from Turkey. It is certain that tumultuous scenes took place at Constantinople on the 127th or 48th November, and it appears that they have had most serious results, but the eccounts so vary it is impossible at present to ascertain the truth. A great many persons meth tain that the Grand Signior, and even his young son, and others say. the favourite of the Sultan, Haled Effendi, have been killed, sod that a Commit tee of Janissaries has seised upon the Government.
