1Po''eF states that the trial { Beau
CHAMP. at Frankfort, (Ky.) for be muir
der OF Col. Sharp, was brouht 70 a
close on Friday evening, IGh nit
Ihe Jury found him Guilty. re wife
OF the prisoner, who was SUPPOSE to be
accessory to the murder, has ben ac-
quilted by the examining Court. The
iohowlng, which TRANSFERRED during the
trlai, IS given in letter dated at Frnk-
Tort, May 4th -" The examination ne
witnesses has been minute and tedious
have heard but little of the evide,ce
myself,-a very lengthy and ingenius
document was read yesterday by tie
Counsel for the Commonwealth, /
was in the form Of written instruction:
10 a witness; written by Beauchamp
and sent to- his wife IN a pair of socks,
with directions for her to deliver il 10
the witness for his examinaton.-She
did go, but the witness proved TO be
possessed of too much integrity for
thelr purposes, and kept the document
and delivered it up 10 the Counsel for
the Commonwealth. 1t purpcrted to
be conversation between Darby and
the witness Lowe where the former is
made to offer the latter bribe to swear
to the handkerchief which was found in
oharp's yard; also, conversation which
should have taken place between Kel-
ley, Zone of the men from this place
that took Beauchamp,) and Lowe the
witness, at the house of BeauchamD.
Kelly is made TO take Lowe to one side
and offer him 500 TO swear that Darby
actually paid him S25 not to mention he
ever saw him, and at Court when he
swore to the handkerchief he was to
have whatever reward he should name.
The object of his document was 10 fix
the murder of Sharp on Darby, and
acqult Beauchamp, but as it has turned
out, II will have different effect. II
proves clearly to me that Beauchamp is
the real murderer, and places Darby
above suspicion. 1t was a deep laid
plot, and discovered great ingenuity,
and but for for the imprudence ofBeau-
champs wife, might have entrapped
Darby. They have sent for BIS wife.
and at proper time Lowe will disclose
more.-Ddrby was in Court when the
document was read; rose from his chair
and looked Beauchamp full in the face
the greater part OF the When
the paper was finished reading, Lowe
was called and questioned; he said, so
FAR from Darby's ever offering him a
bribe, he never had seen him.
-BeauchamP is sentenced to be hung July 7.
Stick to the carriage By all means.-
Last week, Sylvanus Miller, Esq. was
'hockngly hurt by rashly jumping from
1 Dearborn wagon, when the horse.
having taken fright was running at full
speed. He broke his leg in a very dan
gerous manner, and was otherwise
greatly injured. On this occasion we
onSe more remind our readers, that we
nave repeatedly cautioned persons who
ire thus run off with, never, on any ac-
count, to leave the carriage, when it is
hus hurting along with furious rapid
y; for though their situation is at best,
lot without danger; yet, 10 leave the
Vehicle, when under way, is certain iu-
ury, and almost certain destruction.-
When horse runs off, he seizes the
lit between his teeth, and is beyond
control by any steady pull. The Only
way is, by saving his mouth, pulling al
ernately first one and then the other,
which sometimes answers 10 bring him
Up; but, if not, remember 10 stick to
he carriage at all events, and IN every
case, but when you see preciplce be-
ore you. Eve. Post.
