Lao Inteligeacc.-A novel question
was agl:ated on the 14th inst. in the
Court Of Oyer and Terminer for Mid
dlesex, n. J. on the trial of William NJ.
solomon, indicted as an accessory to
the murder of Mrs. Stout by her hus-
band in January last. Stout it is well
nown,committed suicide, and the coun-
sci for the prisoner contended that the
trial of an accessory could not take
place, until after the conviction of the
principal. This doctrine was admitted
by the council for the State, but they
denied the unversality Of the rule and
urged the necessity ola departure from
it in the peculiar case before the court.
After considerable discussion, and citing
variety of cases by the respective
counsel, in support of their several po-
silionq, the court decided that the trial
should proceed. The Chief Justice
dlssented from the opinion of majority
fof the court, and. maintained both before
and in his charge 10 the jury, the incom-
potency of the court to try the prisoner
The trial occupied the court nearly
three days, when the jury retired, and
after being out short time, brought il
a verdict of not guilty.

the editors OF ne New York Daily Advertiser
have recetrs FF-o=4oa papers totlre esd oF f-eb.
The most important news afforded us by
this arrival, is that Of the commencement OF
hostilites between England and Algiers.
The ships Naiad and Caneleon, had gone to
Algiers 10 demand PREPARATION for an insult of.
fered to the British consular flag, and on re-
ceiying refusal, together with a declaration
that the treaty with England should be no lon
ger observed, attacked corvette with seven
teen Spanish prisoners on board, and succee-
ded in capturing her. Unless some accommo-
dation should be speedily formed, and further
hostiiities prevented. the AlgeTines have much
to appreheud from their powerful enemies,
who probably will not long delay to strike a
decisive blow.
The principles on which this war Is under
taken, form a striking contrast indeed with
those OF the late expeditions against Italy and
Spsis, as well as with those who are supposed
to be in preparation against different parts Of
South America. The charge is that CHRIS
tians have been enslaved by the Alxerines
80 that England IS not fighting for her own
subjects alonc, bot for those Of other nations.
She has, 10 a certain extent, adopted the csuse
