ENYY AND pETRACTIoN.

The great law Of mutual DcBevolence is
perhaps oii,ner violated by envy than by
interest. Interest can dl.iuse itself but 70
nj row comp,ss. Interest is seldom pur-
sued bu, at some hoard but to spread sus-
PIC Ou--ip lnyeni calumnrs--tO propagate
sc. dal, elU,rcs neither talents, nor labor,
nor COui "a.
Take Iced you harbor MOI tina, vice call
ed envy, lest anoiher's happiness be your
torment, and Gods blessing become your
curse.
Be not censorious, for thou knowest not
whom thou judgest. II is 4 more deXteuus
error to speak well of an evil man than ill of
agood man.
Never employyourselit 10 discern the faults
Of 9th rs but be careful to mind and prevent
your own.
Ii Jewel be right no matter who says il
is counterfeit. Ifmy conscience tells me
that am innocent, what do care who tells
the world that | am guilty.
Never speak i'll Of any man if OF good
man it Is impiety ilof bad man give him
your prayers.
Letyour discourse ofothers be fair: speak
i'll o. nobody. 10 DO il in his absence is The
property OF coward, that slabs man be-
hind his back if TO his face you add an al
front to the scandal; he that praises, bestows
favor, but he that detracts commits rob
berry in taking from another what is justly
his.
A good word is an easy obligation, but
not TO speak i'll requires Only our sil'Lce
which costs US nothing.
There is an odious spirit in many persons
who are better pleased to detect fault than
commend virtue.
The wof,hiest people are most injured by
slanderers as we usually find that tobe the
best fruit which tue birds have been pick
ingr.

y EXECUTION.
II has again become our painful duty to
record the particulars of the ignominious
death of one of our fellow creatures, in
compliance with the acquisitions Of the vi
olated laws of our country. The awful
sentence of death was yesterday executed
upon James Hamilton, the murderer OF
the lamented Major Birdsa!I, in the south
part OF this city, in the presence OF large
concourse ofpeop!e, from this and the ad-
joining counties.
1t is ever with emotions of the deepest
regret that we attempt TO detail the solemn
ceremonies attendant upon public execu-
tions-but custom. and the genius OF our
laws, which have ordained capital punish
ments more as an example TO the living
than as a punishment TO the offender, seem
to forbid our remaining silent. On the
present occasion, however, we shall be as
brief as possible The unhappy convict
has expiated his crime upon The gallows-
public justice is obtained-and we have e.
very human evidence that the guilty mall
e!actor died sincere and happy penitent.
Pursuant 10 previous arrangements, the
prisoner left the jai! al half past II O'clock,
guarded by The Albany corps of Artillery,
and attended by the Sheriff, bis deputies

STRANGE DISCOVERY.

STRANGE DISCOVERY.
A few days ago TIE ship Hope was taken
into one of Mr. Smiths docks, at Howrah,
and the dock pumped out when discovery
vas made of rather an extraordinary ma
ture. Not only had the false keel been al
most carried away, but about 10 or 70 feet
Of the main keel, little way befon. the
step Of the main mast, had also been torn
Of. For three or four feet no part could be
seen remaining unless TO person under
meath, the u aole being smoothed 10 the
'evei Of the lower streak on each side. In
This place rattan might have been pushed
through the bolt holes nearly into the ships
hold, & the water therein continued 10 drop
from the holes.
Such being the appearance. alarming in
deed to any one that might suppose himself
compelled TO plough the ocean in ship so
mangled, it is indeed matter Of surprise
that nothing in the course of her last voy-
age should have led TO any suspicion Of her
disabled state. During the voyage before
last, that she made 10 China she had struck
on the ouermost extreme OF RomaDia Rect,
near the straits OF Gineapore, aud there she
must have sustained the injury now Disco
verei. As however she made no water
particularly after the accident, her bottom
was considered 10 be still in good order,
ana as she has gone her last voyage with
out complaining OF making water, except
in some very severe weather in the China
Seas, which compelled the ships returning
to this port from China to put back, the as.
tonshment OF those who had made the voy-
age in her may be judged Of, on their wit.
Messing the state OF her bottom, and reflect
ing hoy providentialiy they had been pre-
served from watery grave.
The ship has been long employed in the
India trade, but her history, which might
be amusing, il correctly stated, is neverthe-
less involved in obscurity. Evidently built
by the Portuguese. and as it is supposed at
the Braz X, she has acknowledged mer-
chants OF all countries and descriptions for
her owners, at different times. She has run
long and prosperously, and her good ior-
tune OH shore, in obtaining insurance on ca
sy terms during her latter days, was not ex-
ceeded by her success IN travers!ng the o.
cean. Changes have however taken place,
and scrupes nov exist where none were
found betore--the old Hope has been com.
PEELED with other vessels, that seemed 10
have been kept as cothns after they had lost
their power oil safe convey snce) to yield TO ;
circumstances, and on Tuesday last she
was brought TO the hammer, when she was
knocked down for Sicda Rupees I800n In
the sale of her S, .ars, the mizen mast went
for so rupees, the maintop-mast for or 5,
&c. SC. Surely our ship building rivals at
home, cannot after this, raise their COM
plants SO loudly against the exorbitant pri-
ces OF ships, and OF marine stores &c. in In.
