bench to adjust the same-ghile doing this
his cotton jacket, or roundabout, being unbut-
toned, was caught by the Shaft, and wound
round it, till it brought his body in contact
under the arm, when, with irresistible force,
raising his body by this short purchase, and
revolving at the rate of 60 tines per minute,
he was thrown around the shaft several times,
before the wheel could be stopped, although
the gate was shut instantly. The only visible
injury was much abrasion of the skin, frac-
ture of one thigh, and several ribs. His inn
mediate death was undoubtedly occasioned
by internal decorations and Commissions He
survived only twelve hours.---But few, with
in the circle Of Mr.. Newell's acquaintance,
could receive knowledge of this distressing
event without the tribute of tear for he
was an enterprizins, respectable and esteemed
member of society.--But an amiable wife
with two small children, md aged parents,
looking to him for comfort q declining years,
are almost overwhelmed with grief, at his un-
timely death, he being only29 years of age.

This important. and heretofore

settled, and the fac. fully exempli-
fed by tho 9Th regiment, that the
pursuits of agriculture and military
science may be occasionally combi-

military character of the troops, as
this regiment has proved itself to be

branch of military duty, to the best
drilled battalion the Commanding ge-
neral has seen in his department.
1t has, indeed, with some appar-
ent reason, been apprehended. that
the cultivation of rich low grounds
on the margin of large rivers or

The barracks of st. Anthony,
which are so far completed as to al
ford ample quarters for the present
accommodation of each company,
consist of two blocks of wood, and
two of stone, comprehending sixty
two large rooms, with stone and
brick chimney and fireplace in each
rom, with extensive cellars. &c.

The land in cultiva alton consists of
near 600 acres, and the late crop,
though greatly injured by the rainy

The internal police and discip-

Inc progress which has been made,
in fortifying the position, which is by
