Petersburg as town will suffer but lit
lie by this conAagration. But the indi-
yiduals upon whom the blow has immedi-
ately fallen, will feel it most sensibIy.-
This part Of BIandford was inhabited
chiefly by poor people; and many of this
class have lost every thing, and all of them
have lost more than they can afford to
lose" We fear very little of the prop
erty destroyed, has been ensured.
The greatest sufferer is Mr.. Francis

valuable, large quantity OF materials for
the soap and candle business, was destroy
ed. The Society oil Blandiord Lodge

hope some plan, having for lis object their
speedy relief, will be adopted without de-

After dinner, James Teed was put on
his trial. Out of a panneT Of about forty
jurors only eleven were competent ia
serve, all the others having been objected
to--The sheriff picked the twelfth man
from among the spectators. Two of the
jurors we're tried by tryers, and both re-
jected by the verdict. The swearing of
the jury occupied the court about four
hours.
Mr.. Belts opened the cause, and Mr..
Van Buren, proceeded to examine wit.
nesses, five were examined that evening
and the court adjourned between II and
IL, putting the jury under the special
care OF a constable to be kept together
On Saturday morning the trial Of iced
was again resumed. The third witness
sworn was Jack Hodges, who was under
close examination for seven or eight hours.
when the court ordered him taken down
into the iaiior's room to receive some re-
treatment, the counsel for the prisoner
observed that they had not done with him,
yet, the court replied that he must be ex.
tremely fatigned. -Four ether witnesses
were sworn, but the examination of the
last was not flushed when the court ad.
Journed, constsbles we're sworn to keep
the jury together and bring them into
court on Monday morning, when Jack was
again brought 10, and his cross examina-
ton continued until after our paper was
prepared fer press.
The trial of Mr.. iced will probably
occupy the court until Wednesday night.
The court house has been continually
crowded, and on Wednesday and Thurs
day last, the concourse of people assem-
bled in the village was truly astonishing.
not more than one third of them could
get into the court room, which will prob
ably hold 600 persons.
The great anxiety evinced by the peo-
pie to hear these trials, have induced the
editor of this paper, in connection with
B. +. Lewis, Of Newburgh, to procure re-
ports OF them for publication 10 pamphlet
form.
Teed, Conkling, and Dunuing have al
so been found guilty, and the whole Of
them condemned to be hung on FRIDAY
the 10th of April next; and Jack, the
black fellow to be delivered to the Medi.
cal Society Of the county, for dissection.
Hannah iced was next called up. The
Judge stated TO her 10 substance: that il
consideration other sex-of the probability
that the mandates of stern and inflexible
husband might have Influenced her con-
duct in relation to the murder-in consid

resented to the court-and also in consid
GRAFTON of the destitute situation Of hel
children, already deprived of a father
that she was now to be their only protec
tor--the only parent TO whom they mus
in future look for support-that these, AM
a variety of considerations, pressed them
selves upon the minds Of the court. who
with the advice and consent of the coun
sci for the people, had thought proper Il
extend to her all the mercy the law woulc
allow-She was, therefore, sentenced t.
thirty days confinement in the County
Jail. Her crimes, the court remarked
would justify severer punishment, bu
they had greater regard for her children
than for her-and would therefore forbear

Carey was, we understand, very re-
spectacle man, and post master in that
town.
About % months since, Philip, aged
about years, son of MIR. Asscyrill Flint,
Of this town, drank, through mistake, a
quantity of carbonate Of potash (pearl ash
which prevented his swallowing any thing
but milk which he continued TO drink un-
ill the third of last month, when he be-
came wholly unable to swallow any nour-
ishment, and continued TO anguish for
thirty days, gradually losing the use OF
his limbs and senses, till he became sense
less, and lost to feeling, his flesh mostly dri-
ed up.--Upon examination after death, it
was found that the 9sophagus throai) from
the Iarynx to the stomach, was very much
coated, and in two places almost closed.

By an officer lately from Pensacola, we
learn that, on Wednesday week, Span
ish force of four or five hundred men ar
rived at the Barancas at 10 o'clock, and
at IL reached the town, and formally took
possession. The utmost harmony pre-
vailed throughout the whole transaction.
The Spanish officers aud men maintained
the most correct department An opin-
ion prevailed amonst them, that the res
torsiion was only temporary; that ces-
sion of the Floridas would, no doubt, be
effected in the course of the present year.
