We are happy in stating to the public

boats. each Of which will be about eighty
feet long and thirty feet beam in each Of
which six carriages may be driven, without
the coachmens' desce aiding from their seats,
or the persons alighting from their carria-

quarter railing round the boat, and float

Tx OW TIE JERSEY BANK.

1t will be recoIlected, that by law of
November last, tax of half per cent was
levied upon the capitals of each OF the banks
in this state--that the Banks OF Trenton,
.Ney Brunszvick eJ .Nr7uark coupled with
the law. and paid heir respective taxes in
to the Treasury--and the bank OF Jersey set
the law at defiance, refused TO pay its tax
disposed OF Its real estate, & removed to the
city of New-York.
The Treasurer, not receiving the tax
from chat Bank within the time presCrIh ed
by law, applied o the Chief Justice who
issued warrant, which was put into the
hands of the Sheriff of Bergen. and by him
levied upon The Banking House, &c. at the
City OF Jersey, which he advertised for
sale.
The Legislature being informed of this at
their last sitting pa sed an act authorizing
the Treasurer to attend on the day of sale
and purchase the property tor the state,
or at least TO bid it up as much as would
cover the amount of the tax with interest
and cost
Before the day of sale arrived, however,
application was made on behalf of the bank
To Judge WAsHINeToN, to stay alltprocee-
dings against their property. Saturday the
20,h ultimo was appointed by the Judge for
hearing upon theapplication at Philadel
Phd ACCoruibSy aaron OCDhNs esq.
on the part of the Bank, and LUcIUs Ho-
RATIO STOCKTON and ANDREW S Hum
TEE, esQnires, on the part of the State, APP
peared before the judge. The question was
thoroughly discussed , & judge Washington,
after taking time to make up his opinion,
decided that the case did not come within
his jurisdiction, and that he could not inter
fere.
On the Tuesday following, agreeable to
his advertisement, the Sheriff proceeded
to cell the Banking House, &c. which
was purchased by the Treasurer, for the
State at 200 dollars. The buildings
alone are said to have cost 10000 dol
lars.
We congratulate our readers upon the
prospect that all tire attempts Of the Jersey
Bank to evade the equitable & reasonable
tax laid upon it by the Legislature will be
Ultimately frustrated. and tina, the amount
levied, together with interest and costs, will
be finally recovered by the state.

in this city, the u. States brig HORNET
which had been hauled up to be repaired
but which has in fact been completely re.
built, the timbers being found less sound
than they were supposed to be. The launch
was Witnessed by many hundreds of spec
tators among whom were, with other dis
tinguished persons, the President, the
Heads of Departments, and their respec
tive ladies', and the foreign ministers and
their secretaries. After the launch, the
company visited the biack-smith's shops, &
examined the operation of the steam en-
gine lateI, erected, which was then at work;
after which they partook of refresh
ment of sailors fare in spacious work
shop, which had been previously cleared
out. The music of the marine band gave
a zest TO the pleasures of the meeting; *
whilst the beaux and bellies mingled in the
sprightly dance, those who did no partake
OF that amusement spent pleasant hour in

The Editor of the Aurora is perfectly

OF the great b pdy of the American people

TeYal inmates Of the family, aeighbouts;;
tradesmen. and c ub mates Of he deceased.
From lhe evidence of the persons it appear
ed, that soon after Mr.. GoideD's return
from the country excursion, he introduced
Elizabeth Langrish and talked of her as
his wife; hat tor several years she was vi
sited as such 'hat at the time of the
death of heir first child, The plate on his
coffin and the inscription on his tomb stone
was Robert, the son Of John & E.iz abeth
Golden" and when Mrs Ooid. II herself
died, she had family vault built tor ,he
purpose OF her ,'terment IN st. PaDcras
church-ya ro, where her re mains were dep1-
sited and the inscription ON The tomb store
designated her as his wife and in SPEAK
ing or his owa dissolution, he wished TO be
deposited beside his late wife. The. above =
men, ioned inscription was erased from the
tomb stone by the direc ion OF his family
tron which it was inferred by the Plain
nff's Counsel, that a ouCeaiment of tine
fact was endeavored to be made by the
next Of kin. But no actual proof of the
marriage either as to time or place was
adduced.
Mr.. ATTORNEY GENERAL, on the part
OF the Defendant, commended that tn queS
tion was not whether the Lady passed as
the wife of the deceased Mr.. Golden, but
wnether marriage had actually taken
place previous to the birth oil the Plaintiff.
He should prove by the most incontroverti
BILE testimony, that no license was ever
granted from the Consistorial Court, or any
banns published in any parish where by
any possibility these parties could have
been and it it had been solemnized clan
destiiely, there was no evidence to that eff.
feet. That the maj riage never had been
publicly mentioned until after she was preg-
naut Under hese Considerations he was
confident the Jury would give verdict for
the Defendant. ..,
Evidence was then produced on the part
OF the Def,ndan to prove that no registry
OF the marriage had been entered on the re-
cords OF the Consstorial Court, or any Pa
IRISH Registry. .,
After a most impartial charge from
the Learned Judge. the Jury consulted
for five minutes, and returned a verdict
for the Plaintiff, confirming him TO be
the Legitimate son of John Golden, deceas-
ed.
The Cause occupied he Court from ele-
ven O'clock IN the morning until after nine
at night. i, eXcIted grea, interest, and the
| verdict of the Jury was greeted by crow.
| ded Court with the strongest marks OF ap.
probation.
