der to render this argument utterly ridiculous,
it need only be mentioned that these same
would-be-thoughtp eace-makers are the very
and only men, who have disturbed the tran
quillity of the State since the old era of democ-
racy. During the quiet administration of
Governor BROOKS, when there was no pre-
tence for complaint or opposition, these pre-
cious lovers of harmony were unwearied
in their attempts to elect enc of their own
stamp to the office Of Governor, although Mr..
BROOKS uniformly pursued course tending
directly to smooth the asperities OF party, and
conciliate the feelings OF his political oppo-
nents. Last year their efforts were success
full, and then, for the first time since the GER
REMAINDER reign, violent denunciations
and invectives were launched forth upon the
Federal party from the CHAIR OF STATE
denunciations and invectives which struck at
the very root Of reconciliation, and again
aroused the slumboring spirit of party The
democrats have since done all in their power
to keep this inauspicious spirit awake, by in
cessan,ly ringing in our ears the most provok-
ing insults and reproaches and now, even
now, that they are prating Of tranquility and
harmony, their prints TEEN with the same I'M
sparing abuse which has ever distinguished

hesitated to declare, in most unqualified terms,
that no Federaist ought TO be trusted for
moment. With most unblushing impudence,
and unparalleled efrontery, they style us
enemies of the Government under which we
live. They call on all men to avoid FEEDER
alist as they would pestilence, and the very
next wordswhich proceed from their lips are
harmony and tranquillity!! FELLOW
CITIZENS be not deceived. Trust not to
these smooth pretences. Depend upon it,
there is gall and bitterness under these honied
accents. Remember the GERRYMANDER
LAW. That was a legitimate offspring of
democracy, and it followed hard upon {"
gear Of uncommon political tranquilhty" The
same language was holden then as now. The
same spirit dictated these words of hypocrisy
and deceit, and that spirit will ever lead to
results the most deplorable. Learn wisdon,
from experience. You have been cheated
once and again by these political jugglers
This should lead you to distrust them ever.

MR.. EDITOR.

MR.. EDITOR.
Many believe that the people of this Coun.
ty have not taken sufficient degree of inter-
est in the Petition of the Trustees OF the Am.
herst Collegiate Institution for Charter, and
its rejection, at the last session, in the House
of Representatives, alter it had obtained a
handsome majority in the Senate. This In
stitution is eligibly located, literally endowed,
and already in successful operation. 1t only
needs Charter to ensure its prosperity. Why
is Charter refused? No satisfactory answer
can be given. II is feared that unwarranta-
BILE hostility to this Institution occasioned the
omission OF the name of Hon. Mr.. Jones in the
Federal nomination for Senators. The friends
of Amherst ask no favour, but they do ask
concurrence ofmany electors in recommend
ing ior Senators.

TRIAL AND CONVICTION OF JOHNSON.
+ The Circuit Court of Oyer and Terminer,
commenced its session on Monday morning last,
Hon. Judge Edwards presiding. The Court
room and every avenue leading thereto were
crowded, to witness the trial of John johnson,
Tor the murder Of James Murray. About 70
the prisoner was brought in, when the rush
and confusion was so great as to suspend bust
ness fer long time. Johnson was we'll dress
ed, and appeared calm, and looked upon the
audience with much composure, and occa.
slonally wiped his face with handkerchief
He paid much attention 10 the reading of the
indictment, and on being called upon to an
swer guilty or not guilty, he repeated twice,
am not guilty."
On Tuesday, some difficulty occurred in
impannelling jury, some having scruples,
and others having prejudged the case.
The evidence of the Rev. Mr.. Powers, and
many others, proved fully the identity of the
murdered Murray-his arrival from Boston,
taking quarters at Johnson's--the chest-the
bloody clothes secreted at Johnson's-the
mangled body found dragged in the street
and finally, two full and complete confessions
OF Johnson, Of all the circumstances. The
prisoner was greatly agitated, and wept much
during the trial. and was some time apparent
ly on his knees in prayer.
The jury, after an absence of ten minutes.
brought in verdict of gully. At the end Of
the term the court will pronounce sentence,
and assign the time and place Of execution.
