LIBEL.-The editor of the New York Spy, was
about week since, arragned before the proper
tribunal, at the inst tance Of iottery vender nam
ed PARIsEN, residing in Chatham-srcet, New
York, charged with having published libel on
himself and his Office. II seems that the vender
to attract the attention Of the vulgar multitude,
had placed at his window, an indecent caricaturc
painting. To this the Editor of the Spy took
exceptions, and as he was a strictly moral man,
and could not abide to see any thing presented TO
the public, that could justly offend the eye Of
the most fastidious stickler, he determined to
have the rascally caricature removed, with as
little delay possible. To effect an object so de-
sirable, no "let loose the gs" [ofinky] "war,"
got out the batterng rams of the press, and "lad
tho offender low" He gave minute description
OF the infamous painting, and exposed its ugli-
ness, that the ticket vender's office was Stunned
as 1t 1t had been the guartering place Of an army
of Pole Cats. Not a ticket would any one buy
OF hm,--hs trade was completely defunct-he
saw himself on the margin Of ruin and starvation,
and for redress for his injuries he appealed to his
country The Editor with phiz, as long as
grenadier's boot-iacs, entered the Court, and
having heard the indictment read, pie lded not
gully, in mournful voice, which sounded like
one merging from the tombs of the capule,s. The
trial went on,--the given to the jury
who returned in few moments with n verdict of
acquittal, when each Of them subscribed for the
spy, so hiShly did they approve OF the conduct of
the Editor, in thus putting end to a gross libel
on the public. Mr.. Justice Irwin, presiding, in
his charge to the jury commended the conduct of
the Spy, and went into an elaborate and able ex-
position of the Law Of Libel an analysis of which
we have not room to copy.-Ths case was decid-
ed as it should have been, and if the prose cuted
was acquitted, it certainly made the prosecutor
guilty, and he should have been, Immediately ar
raigned for committing an offence upon the laws

stance carried his tickets to the wrong market,
and quite chap fallen, retired to his place ofbus-
ness, to weep over his own folly and defeat.

Not long since he was out for the General, and.

alier reply, he repaired to Washington, to assist
Mr.. Burgess in carrying through the house, his bill
for the Relief of the surviving officers of the Rev.
olution, and whilst there wrote home several spir.
tied letters, in which however, he carefully avoid-

courtcd a lady aged l3, and il is fully believed
that he continued his visits regularly once fortr
night for 35 years, and that the time was appoint
ed for the marriage five or six times during his
period, but from some cause, unknown to any per,
son except themselves, they were not married.
The time was again appointed on the 18th Decemx
Der last; the gentleman attended accordingly, but
the lady sent him off he went ;she, however; in O.
few days changed her notion; wrote him a ro.e to
that effect; he went to her house, taking TIE pare
son with him, and thev ere finally married on the
2lst December, without the knowledge OF any
part of the family, who were astonishcd on conf
ing into the house at night, to find the couple
married, and an elegant supper on the table.

The man that would resort TO such an cxpep
dent to call in full house, on his benefit ,ght.
deserves not the patronage of the public, and
should, with his associates, be Kissed from the
Stage. That theatrical performer, whose talents
are not sufficiently alluring TO call in the multi.
tudc for his benefit, deserves not to be ranked
among the legitimate disciples of tho Drama, and
with Colonel Pluck and his elephant should be
kicked out Of doors.-Thesc kind of exhibitions
amount to complete prostitution of the Stage.
and should not be encouraged by the admirers OF
the legitimate Histrionc art.

RHoDE-IsLAND HrsToRIcAL SocIErY.-This
Society, founded by number of literary men and
antiquarans, we az happy TO state, is fast gain
ing numbers, and attracting that attention to
which it is pre- -eminently entitled as an institu-
tion established to collect and collatc, the history
of our title commonwealth, and to place before
the eyes IF the rising generation, faithful deln-
cation of the histories of our fathers, and of those
matters Of fact and incident, which distinguish us
as people, but which BY neglect, have for the
moment been suffered to escape us.
Very recently, as understand, vigorous, if
not a successful effort, has been made by the r.
|. Historical Society, to procure all the neodfil
information for the formation of correct History
of our State, and it cannot but be hoped, that
those who are engaged in an enterprizc, at once
so laudablc and important, will be successful; to
the end, that we may no longer be reproached by
our sister States, and .od that we, like the ille-
gitmate ofsprngs of Illicit love, cannot tell our
history, or record the deeds of our ancestors.
In attending to our historical affairs, we have
been exceedingly remiss, and it now becomes us
to make up what VIC have lost by our neglect.
Each Rhode-Islander, should feel an honest
pride, in contributing to the compilation of the
History of his native land; and each and all, who
possess any historical relics, respectfully in
vited TO hand them to the Society, that they may
be used for the benefit Of the people. Through
the indefltgable exert.ons of literary and scien-
,ific gentleman, who has recently visited Europe,
the Society, have been put in possession of an an
tiquated work, BY he. founder of our State, the
celebrated Roger Williams, which, we are happy
to state, is about to be published for The benefit of
the Institution, in whose behalf we are now speak
ing. II is rare curiosity, and worthy of the pat
ronage of the public, and the more so as the pro-
ceeds of the sales, will be applied to promote the
objects had in view, by the Historical Society.
The work was found at the University of Ok
ford, by one of our townsmen, and by him copied
from the only copy believed to be extant.

gave brief sketch of himself, and TIE rise Of the
institution for whose benefit he was pleading; and
we should have been well pleased with it,, if he
had not marched out of his track, and very un-

character ofa sister community. In speaking Of
the moral and literary condition Of that communi-
