Accidental respectable and industrious citi-

Tuesday evening, in fulfiment OF his nightly duty
went into a bsrn to feed some horses under his
charge, when. III consequence of the irailty Of the
floor. he fell through, and as is supposed, was so
sadly injured that he instantly expired; at any
rate, corroborstng circumstances confirm the sup
positi a. notice of the untimely end Of this un
fortunate individual has been given in two papers
in this town, in the following laconic and inhuman
ma ner-
- young man named Blake Houshton1 was
found dead Yesterday, Wednesday in the caaise-
room OF y. Wilkinson Esq. in Pawtucket. lie had
attended a shooting match on Christmas eay."
1t is not material at whose ins,a the notice
given to the public, since its cold blooded
ner and intention lie but too apparent and the CIV
ing Of it publicity, reflects equally hard upon the
Generator and the writer.
The design Of the writer, whoever he may be, was
to impressn bel ef the public that this unhappy
ran fell a victim 10 intcmperanee that in conse
quenee OF his having nduged in The festivitie. of
shooting match, indignant God, called him 10
another world, " with all his imperfections on hi.
head" Such monsttous injustice shall not e. cape
us--wa will not behold dead mans fame basely
'raduced, and it becomes us TO say that Mr.
HoUGHroN died any other man would have
died if placed in similar situation. The finger of
God, was not moro evident IN this case, than II
v,
that any man who fell as he did, and was milarly
wounded, and through the darkness Of the plight
and the la'enes' Of the hour, deprived of every aid
would have expired. There was thing singular
or extraordinary in his dea,h-he died rs other men
die. AMI IL is uof-cling il is wicked to attempt TO
heap load of obloquy his memory
What renders this matter the impious and un-
natural, is, that this attempt to sully lis fame has
been made, by some individual. from sinister mo.
tves, because he was poor, and who won'l not
have dared to do II, had he belonged to a eathy
family. Had Mr.. HouG grov been rich, the press
would have wept over his fall and attributed tho
accident to the Infamous frailty of the Hoor or to
the unfaithfulness the carpener VIII, erected the
building.
1t will be well to add, that th. accident did not
occur on the night following the Shooting Match
and that we are informed by one of the Jurors who
sat on the inquest, that Mr.. HouGHroy ~s. known
to be in complete state Of sobrie'ya short time
before he is supposed TO have died, and further that
he was temperate man. Mr.. Fl. was native OF
Keene. New Hampshire. and has left wife and one
child, to lament his sudden death. Verdict of the
Jury-accidentdl DEATH.

will state, without a comment We re.published
five weeks since, an article from the Literary Ca

which are considered as very considerable in
amount and which will probably swell the losses to
nearly 100000. Much OF the stock had never
been paid for in money, and was secured to be paid
only bv the notes of individuals, which never were

PaEsiDEsr ADAMs.---a correspondent Of tie
Boston Courier. this speaks Of the President
Adams
"The great question, who shall be the next
resident like Aarons rod, swallows up all others
From present appearances, one would think Mr.
Adams was gaining ground not only in various parts
# the county, but at Washington, also in truth,
Congress may be said to reflect public opinion
ther than 10 direct il now a days. Mr.. Adams, is
in himself host bred politician, he knows all the
movements OF parties as soon as the machine is in
motion cautious, intelligent and decisive he looks
far ahead and makes shrewd calculations to defeat
plans in opposition to his own. Every thing abroad
or at home is known to him far better than any OF
his predecessors knew them. Like Pitt, during his
administration, he is master Of all his agents they
never become his masters by superior industry or
watchfulness. The morning dawn and the midnigh;
lamp are subservient to mis- ends and aims. No man
rises earlier and retres later than the President of
The United States. No sanctifed commentator Oh
Holy Writ was ever more rersevering than Ohm @.
Adams. No one can cheat or deceive him, for he
knows more than those around him. HIS Cabine:
may advise him often, but will seldom control him.
He exacts much and will yield but little. He
shrinks from no responsibility and assumes no ex
Taordinary prerogative. He lavishes nothing in
londncss and indulses in prov oking partialities
IL he does not, like some great politicians, steal into
the affections men, he perhaps does better by se-
curing the dictates Of their undo erstandings. II
some prefer another, few dare attack him. Such
man is not easily dispossessed when in power"
