DR. Hamilton, alias John HGthaUGys
This impostor in the faculty of Esculapius-this
outcast among the honorable fraternity OF the sons
of St. Crispn, the public has been already advised,
was in the hands of stern justice, and waiting or!y
the regular course Of law to prove his innocence
10 have his guilt established. In this intervening
season we have purposely RETAINED from venting
our feelings, because in the eyes OF the law the
cused is considered innocent until proved guilty, and
to awaken an unwarrantable prejudice in the minds
of his peers would be cruel and unjust But this
delicacy of feeling is no longer cherished Public
fame has not belied the At the bar OF his
country he stands the self acknowledged, the self
condemned criminal. He is about to suffer the
righteous punishment prescribed by law--and 10
atone for the injury done the ssterhood, as well
for the IMMUNITY with which he has violated the laws
lof the land.
The Grand Jury OF Essex County was impannels
led on Tuesday last. On the hrst day OF their ses-
sion, complaints were lodged against Hamilton for
| Bigamy-and secondly, for Stumbling. The tesi-
mony was so conclusive, that the Grand Jury could
not hesitate. Two bills were accordingly iounds
and on Wednesday morning Hamilton was called
to answer to them. To both oil these indictments
| he plead guilty, without the shadow OF defence-
The court has laid the iron hand OF the law upon
him. and sentenced him 10 ten years imprisonment
at hard labor in the State Penitenary for the first
offence and one years Imprisonment at hard labor
ior the second offence where we hope he will sin
l cerely repent Of his crimes, and become better
lmorhst, and a more honest man, than his public
course has hitherto evinced.
