MJDULE•SEX SESSIONS.

TRIAL OF THE HIGH.STREET GANG.

Yesterday the Sessiotis-liouse was crowded at an
early hour. The miscreants who were committed
from Marlborough-street Police-office, to take their
trial on charges of a horrible description, were
placed at the bar at ten o'clock.
Mr. Anoteitus stated the case against them.
In the frout stood Wrigley, the preacher, and
Howe, both of whom should have been capitally
indicted. It appeared that the reason they were
nor sent to the Old Bailey for the felony, was, be-
cause the principal evideuce had omitted to state,
in his account before the Magistrate, the most
material part of what he was witness to. They
were, therefore, included with the rest in the charges
of c,.nspiracy anti mildemelmor.
Mr. ADOLPHUS, in Ins observations on the trans..
actions he was about to describe, hoped that his
hearers would fantail from any indecorous expres-
, lion of the feeling that would naturally erne at a
detail so revolting. He then, in the most delicate
manner possible, stated what the witnesses for the
prosecution detailed circumstantially. There were,
he said, two persons who had actually associated for
inne with them, for the purpose of bringing then,
o justice. One of those, though almost a stranger
to the gang. introduced the other, who was without
hesitation looked upon as polluted with the pro-
pensities by which they were sheared. This was the
coe with this vice—the wretches addicted to it were
ler a mental blioduest, that considered all others
liable to its influence, and abandoned all caution.
Providence hod set that mark upon them by Which
they became easily discoverable.
The evidence of Purcell and Cane, the two men
who had witnessed the scenes alluded to, with the
view to have the vengeance of the law fall upon
the gang. disclosed a series of tremendous trims-
actions, not paralleled even by the infamous Vere-
areet practices. Those witnesses, on application to
the Magistrates, at Marlborougb.atreet, received di.,

inborn in what manner to proceed. They were at.

CHARGE• AGAINST THE I.OIID MAYOR.
. Yesterday Mr Williams, one of the lemon hold of the
lord Mayor, applied to the sitting Magistrate, Alderman
C. SMITH, to grant him the attendance of peace officer. in
bits attempt to gaol admission let the ManaiontlitlOPP, out of
whirl' he had been Invited vi et ar.is by the Lord Mayor,
toolvestbstanding his right to go to the table as holder of a
place in the huusebnld which had beets situchaseel try him.
The applicant is the rent Irwin who Iria PO frilitently op-
p.oicri the present Lord M astir in the Ward minds hi. Lord-

with a great deal of ',menet., lie said, considering the
violent, dune to his frehug•.
Alderman Swills felt extremely reluctant to interfere on
this occasion. It was, lie said, one of perish:sr delicacy,
and could not wog...sly lie into &veil with by a Magistrate.
There were ways of goosittio satisfaction if ally injury was
sustained, by common law, as well as by application to the
Grind Jury now Elaine. with a bill of Indictment.
Mr. WilitamissMil, he was aware of that, and had resorted
to the law for redeems Olt a former occasion. His object now
sons to protect himself against Nome violence, and that seni-
lity was, he apptelsendtd, hest to be obtained in the manner
he had j,,at sittigesteel. He had not attempted to break the
pence. hot was of opinion the Lord Mayor wished Itim to du
1A), tw having violated it himself.
Aldermen Smith said, he could not decide whether the
Lord Nl.tyor hail or had nut authority to pot a persists out of
the Man.. •house. He was, however, inclined 10 think
the right to du so existed. The right was in abeyance at
present, and until it should be decided one way or the other
in soother place, the Interference of a brother Alderman
woothl, hr !bought, be highly improper.
Mr, Will:awn dewed that any right existed in the Lord
Mayor of the kind alluded to. The entertainments in the
Mansion-house to the honshold were supplied by sums
from their own rickets, and the Lord Mayor merely held
the Mansioon-Itoust for the purposes of justice, not as pri-
vate propert.
Alderman Smith said the entertainments at the 01.1 Bailey
sad !wets stopped by a former Lord Mayor, and were nut re-
newed until lie (Alderman Snoth) directed it, from a con-
viction that they slautild not have been withheld. The pre-
venting' slowed a power in the Lord Mayor, which was ap-
plicable to the present case.
Mr. Williams observed, that the Old Bailey had nothing
%batten. to do with the Mansion-house. He added, that
he should he far from pressing has application if the worthy
Alderman was reluctant.
Altlerman Smith said the Mse was really too important to
be interfered with by hint, without the knowledge of his
brother Aldermen. He should, therefore, consult them on
Tuesday itext,and Mr Williams should be put in possession
of their opinion on the subject.
Mr. Williams then bowed mid retired.
We understand that Mr. Wtlloams immediately proceeded
to the Mattsion•l ttttt ste (it hying three o'clock), but, as be.
fore, found the litotes hortiemled %gains, hurt. Officers,
to fact, sere stationed at every entrance, and nu one, about
the hour mentioned, was admitted without undergoiug a

AlUllI)El: AND RUBBERY.

[From an American Paper, of December 41

Tin* following details of a murder recently com-
mitted in the neighbourhood) called Pimp,
in
Princess Antic Comity, are communicated to us by
a Gentleman who was present at the inquest held
on the body of the deceased person. As the indi-
vidual who starols committed for a participation in
the crime is now in the hands of justice, and, in the
eye of the law, must be presumed innocent until
his final sentence is pronounced. we will barely
state the facts as they were related to us, without
any comment of our own.
For soaie days previous to Tuesday the 9. 4t h ult.
there had been in Pone a mall by the name of
Alexander Taggert, from South Carolina, whose
errand was to purchase slaves, and it was no secret
that he had a very large sum of money about him.
Among others who had slaves to sell was one Har-
per Ackiss, a farmer in the neighbourhood, who
became acquainted with Taggert at the house of
a Mr. Gornto. It was on the day above mentioned
that Ackiss invited Taggert to come to his house
in the evening, that lie might see the negroes and
purchase such of them as he wanted; the latter,
however, having staid later at Mr. Gornto's than he
had intended, expressed some apprehensions at
going to Ackiss's that night, and at the recommen-
dation of Mr. G. postponed his visit till the next
day. On Wednesday he accordingly set out, awl
on his arrival at Ackiss's was met by him and wel-
comed with apparent sincerity and hospitality. It
was nut Taggert's wish to tarry any longer at
Aekiss's them his business required, but Adria*
cowherd to detain him until night came on, when,
contrary to the intention he had expressed to Mr.
Gornto in the morning, he was prevailed tin by
Ackiss to stay at his house all night. Akiss's wife
was front home, and the only white persons
about the firm were himself. his guest. and two
young men, one of whom lived with him. After
they had supped, Arlin* told his guest that as it
was a tine night he should go out hunting, and
said he would leave the young men to keep hum
company; lie thert went oft
Soon after this the young men made some excuse
to get away also, at which Taggert became exceed-
ingly alarmed, and besought them with great
earriestnese not to leave lion alone ; he represented
to them his leers that the gang of negro despera-
does and runaways who infested that neighbour-
hood, and with whom Ackiss'* iiegroes were known
to be in league, might seize the opportunity to
murder him—but they determined on going.
They had left the house but a short time, however,
when (as they stated in their evidence before the
Inquest) they began to entertain some fears for
Taggert's safety, and being aware that if lie was
murdered, they might get into trouble on mamma
of it, they concluded to return, and on entered g
the house they found Taggert in a dark corner of
the room, where lie had crept for the purpose of
concealment. and under the influence of a violent
paroxysm of fear.
At a late hour of the night Ackiss returned from
hunting (as he wished it to be helloed), and the
whole patty retired to bed. Very early the next
morning (Thursday the 46t I o ) Taggert had his
horse got ready, look leave of Ackiss, and rode off;
lie had just time to proceed three or four hundred
yards from the house, when the report of a gnu was
heard. The sound alarmed one of the young men,
who immediately foreboded a verification of the
fears Taggert had expressed the preceding night,
and he exclaimed, " There ! lay a wager the
rogues have shot Taggert !"--,lNonserise!" replied
Ackisa, what should put that into your'hrad?
The man has fired off one of his own pistols, I
suppose." Neither of them, however, took the
trouble to ascertain who fired the gun.
On the following Monday Taggert's horse was
found in an roclosure about three miles on the road
from Ackiss's—the proprietor ofthe place knew that
nothing hail been hears) of Taggert after his depar-
ture from Ackiss's the preceding Thursday. At the
sight of the horse without his rider a suspicion of
the dreadful truth that Taggert had been waylaid
and murdered rushed upon his mind. Communi-
catilig this suspicion to a neighbour of his, they
both concluded to take the horse back to Ackises,
mid learn, if possible, some trace of its metier.
Onarrivuig at the apot where the report of the gut►
had been heard in the morning, the instinct of the
11111111111 gave u new and interesting developemetit of
its noisier's fate—it stopped all of a sudden,
snorted, reared and plunged, waif v►olently alarmed,
mid no effort of the rider could urge it a step
fort her.
A Coroner's inquest had by this time been as-
sembled, and it was lithe that the inquiry com-
menced ; a little way from the side of the road a
number of impels were scattered about known to
have belonged to Taggert ; a little further into the
woods lay his saddle—and, lastly. a spot where the
earth was newly dog, near to which was a hoe, the
prolielty Ackiss, and tin turning up the earth
about too let, the lifeless body of the unfortu.

nate Tagged wits foiiiiil ! It is unnecessary to add•
that the annaderers hail taken his triune), to who.
amount Was not knr,tvn, hut presumed to have
been not less than 15 or 1,600 dollar 4. On a piece
of poPyr which was picked on ti.ar the fatal snot
was the following 1,310) dollars
in Ustilesl States notes ;" and on mow het, '250 dol-
lars in Georgia money." A the patters also
was the cominissum of a Captain In the South
Ca-
robwa ;414iii a, and the diploma of a waster mason.
So far we have the parliculais relating to the
murder, as slated *to evidence doting the *misses,.
It ilow remains to give mane account of the strong
tarcutnstantial proofs in addition to those already
detailed, which led to the committal of Ackiss as
an accumulice in the murder.
Col. Wm. Holt, an opulent and respectable
storekeeper at Black Water, was examined : he
stated that Ackiss had, but a few days before the
murder, settled a loom standing account with him;
the balance in his (Fruit's) favour war eighty odd
dollars. Ackiss said it was more than he had calcu-
lated, but paid 75 dollars towards it, in the various
notes in circulation, and gave his own note (or due
hill) for the balmier., saying he had no snore money.
Two days sifter the murder vise committed, Ackiss
Caine to the depenelit's shire and purchased to the
amount of 40 dollars, in tia)metit of which, suit
his due bill, he tendered a tot) dollars United
States Batik mar, mill received his change. At the
•acne lime he purchased a negro woman from Col.
/Jolt for 500 dollars, which he paid iii live hots*
of the Coned States Bank, tor 100 dollars each,
and din log the same day lie made a winter purchase,
from a men who was about to leave the county, and
paid 600 dollars, in six 100 dollar notes of she
United States Batik, mektug in all twelve 100
dollar notes of that Batik, which lie had disposed
of immediately after his declaration to Colonel
llolt that 7S dollars was all the moues• lie bud, and
within 100 dollars of the am(( of United States
Batik notes which was stated its Taggert's memo-
randum.
From all the circumstances, it appeared to the

BUFFALO, DEC. 1.

MURDER WILL OUT.
Our readers will probably recollect seeing an
account published a few weeks since of the skeleton
of a man supposed to Luve been murdered, having
been discovered in opening a new road not far front
Genes*. The person murdered was said to be a
Gentleman front New Jersey, who was travelling
into this country with u considerable sum of money,
about nine years since. He put up at a public-
house in Gorhoin, ut Ontario county, and his
friends were never able to obtain any account of
him afterwards. The circumstances created consi-
derable excitement in the mighliourhood at the
time, but as no clue appeared which could lend to
a developerneot of the mystery. it had long since
►ubsided, and the circumstance was almost entirely
forgotten. The finding of the skeleton, however,
led to an inquiry, which resulted, we understand, in
a discovery of the transaction. A man by the name
of Mentor, who kept the tavern at the time that
the gentleman disappeared. is ascertained to have
been the perpetrator. Mentor, who removed to
Canada soon after the murder, left a son in Gorham.
who, after the skeleton was found, made the shock-
ing discovery, that his tither was the murderer.—
After residing, several years ill Canada, Mentor re-
moved from thence to Ohio, and settled on the west
branch of the Chagrin river. After the discovery,
u requisition wa► made on the Executive of Ohio,
by Governor Clinton. for ;genitor, and a messenger
dispatched to urieiit him, who passed through this
village on Saturday, on his return, w►th the uu-
happy wretch in lin, custody.

PROTESTANT PETITION IN FAVOUR OF
CATHOLIC EMANCIPATION.

The anticipations of the country with re¢arrl to
the Doke of Leinster have been amply reamed,_
The Deputation of which we spoke a few days ago,
waited roi his Grace yiliterday at Carton. They
were received by the illustrious Representative of
the Douse of Fitzgerald with that suavity of
ntaonrrs 1611101 him, and with those
feelings of patriotism au d virtue which ore here-
ditary in his family, not only y79,1.'11'41 himself
delighted with the ohiect Winch the Dcputie• had
in view, hut itivtailtlr .ITiveil his signatory to the
Requisition. It is likeli before we go to press,
that we skill have to announce, that the Lords
Chatieuunit, Meath, awl Clonciiiiy, resident No..
+Airmen, like hie Grace of Leitister, will have
signed the instrument. It will be followed by 11:e
majority of all that is respectable among the Pro-
testants of Dublin, in lar4c, talent, wealth, or ii.
fluency, and in a few dins it will be presentcd to
the Lord Mayor.—(Dublin Paper.)

An Antwerp Paper says—.." A vessel lately

at St. Helena for fresh water, his brought arrow'',
or Bonaparte ; he was said to be in a very bad stale
of health, so that the news of his death was every
niutueot expected."

Enaliah agents are said to be travelling along tie
coasts of the Baltic and the northern provinces of
Germaliy, to port:base 90,000 loads of timber kr
the service of the British envy; 80 cubic feet are
reckoned to a load, which at the lowest price would
make a saris of 3,600,000 rix-dollars.—(Ghent
Paper.)
The Amsterdam Courant of the llth and 12111 of
January contains a very long Ordinance of the
Commis%toiters-General of the Netherlauds at Bd.
tavie, dated the 28th August. This Ordinance
imposes new duties on all goods exported and im-
ported in the islands of Java and Madura. T.:
letters frtan Batavia of the lYth of September say—
" The inhabitants of Batavia have had an Exchange
built, which has long been greatly wanted."
The Betsey, BEVAN. was lost on Truth Bar on
the 1 lth instant: the Captain, three of the crew,
and a woman passenger were drowned ; the male
and a passenger were taken off the wreck. Five
casks of butter and a bag of flour saved.
The Charlotte, NI‘CA Ls.. from Quebec to Liver-
pool, was lost 13th ult. off l'repassey.
The idi2O, CLANK, from Belfast to London, was
driven on shore on Friday night. near Stranglotd,
