the gratitude of the Liberal Party, Mr. SIMI:
stands forward at present as the representative of
the Catholic Cause in England. Those, there-
fore, who object to the man, should at least
have regard to the cause—a cause which, we
hesitate not to assert, has seldom been pleaded
with more eloquence, never with more sincerity,
than by Mr. SIIEIL. While on this subject, we
may take the opportunity of offering our con-
gratulations to this gentleman on the very viru-
lent measure of abuse, that has been lately dealt
out to him by the Morning Journal. It iu
highly complimentary to his talents, more espe-
cially to his moral worth ; for, wherever either
the one cr the other exist to a sufficient degree
in :, public character, this upstart Paper
(which set out on its career with a fraud on the
Times, of which by changing its name it now
confesses itself ashamed) is sure to make such
individual the object of its vulgarest and most
grotesque anathemas. We shall always respect
Mr. SHEIL's public principles, until we find
them praised by the Morning Journal.

By a letter dated :be 15th of July, we learn
that the attention of the United States is powerfully at-
tracted towards Alachua, on account of its peculiar adapta-
tion to the culture of the sugar-cane, and the success of
recent experiments. Old Indian fields which have not
been in tillage for 50 years, are now filled with the most
luxuriant cones. The corn crops have been unusually large
this year, and prices are exceedingly low.— World.

MURDER.—AYLESEURY, OCT. 27.—The
little village of Haddenhana, which is situated about five
or six miles from this town, on the road leading hence to
Thane, has, since Saturday last, been thrown into a suite
of great excitement, in consequence of the murder of a
respectable farmer of the middle class, named HADDER,
'c. n resided at Thaine, and who was in the almost weekly
of frequenting the market held here, to sell his farm-
teuee produce. His body was found late on Saturday
ni4ht, by the road-side, about half a mile from the village
of limbienhan, and at the time life was, we are informed,
quite extinct. The bode was removed to the public,
house its Haddenhatn, which the deceased was in the be.-
hit of frequenting ; here on examination, it was disco-
