and that be must have them, or be indemnih-

attentively, called to one of his men, and
ordered musket, cartouch box, &c. to

coRoNER's STATEMENT.


Considerable excitement having been pro-
duced on the public mind, by exaggerated
stories and fanciful speculations, in conse-
quence of finding number of human bones,
hair, &c. and marks of blood, in the cellar
of the new church, building in Fayette-st
and of the supposition that murder has
been perpetrated there-the Coroner deems
it an imperious duty, not less to his fellow
citizens generally, than to the inhabitants OF
thatvicinity, to state, that the finding of any
part Of human body is fabrication but,
the marks Of blood and human hair were per
fectly visible, and there is no doubt but that
murder has been committed. He has re-
Gently made very diligent search, but with
out any success. He shall not relax IN the
duty enjoined upon him as public officer,
and his feelings as a man, to find out and
bring to condign punishment, the perpetra-
tor or perpetrators Of this diabolical and
wicked act.

DUEL.
Captain Robinson on board of sloop from
this place, which was aground near Red
Bank, opposite Fort Mifflin, on Sunday last,
distinctly saw duel fought on the shore
near him, by persons whom he had seen
eros, in boats from the Fort. AT the first fire
one OF the parties fell, and was conveyed a.
cross the river MORALLY wounded, las far as
Capt. r. could judge from circumstances.)
Probably the parties were officers, and
the victim, no doubt, has not only thrown a.
way his own life, but may wilfully add to the
list OF widows and orphans, and carried
MORNINGS and distress into many families OF
relatives, and severe regret into many more
of friends. We are glad to find the popular
pen OF Howard employed on this subject.
