DESHA.
We understand that Governor Desha has
pardoned his son Isaac. The power to grant
pardons before conviction, though questionable,
has been repeatedly asserted and exercised by
former Governors of Kentucky, and perhaps O.
Their states. The whole Of the late term Of Har-
rison Circuit Court was devoted to this case.
Nine jurors only were obtained on the last day,
the prisoner having exercised to the extent Of
the law, the privilege of peremptory challenge.
The Judge refused to renew the recognizances

The Governor being present when the Judge
remanded his son Isaac 10 Jail, addressed the

concluded bv reversing the order of the Court
and setting his son at liberty. We are no, in

returned to the House of Representatives, he
(Mr Crawford) could not be elected President
Of the United States.
The writer Of the paragraph knows very lit
tie of the Virginia character, if he supposes Mr.
Trimble, or any other member Of Congress,
could venture 10 tamper with the feelings Of that
body, and completely IS he ignorant of our cha
raeier, if he imagines that gentleman would have
dared to hint the object of such visit.
But how stands the fact? happened to be in
Richmond the very afternoon of Mr.. Trimble's
arrival-put up al the same house with him,
Che Eagle tavern)-was instantly introduced
20 him by Judge Hugh Holmes, Of Virginia,
in the presence of Judge Johnson, and now
Judge Hay, and Mr.. Thompson, from Georgia
spent the afternoon with him, the greater
part of the next forenoon, dined with him, and
the evening Of the same day he left Richmond
for Washington. At that time the College had
not assembled, nor did il meet for fortnight
afterwards. will venture, then, 10 say with
perfect truth, that Mr. Trimble did not see
single member Of the Virginia College Of Eiec-
tors, and that he would have lief: Richmond
early the next morning after his arrival, but for
my solicitations 10 wait few hours, that |
might accompany MIN to Fredericksburg.
AS an avowed friend of Mr.. Trimble, which
] shall not deny, and an open and stronger one

KEY WEST AND COM. PORTER.
PENSACOLA, July 90.

PENSACOLA, July 70.
Com. Ridgely, the Commander ofthe West
India SQUADRON has sailed from Pensacola IN
the Hornet. Il was not known, until ne was
under way (says the Gazette of 10Th July, that
he would leave this port for some time, and his
unexpected movement, 10 Havana and Key
West, at this season. has set conjecture ahoat
as to the objec: Of. his visit. An unusual num-
Der Of dispatches were received BY him from
Washington, by late mails, and it is understood
that the new sloop Of war the "Na,chsz," is to
meet him off Havana.
The late movements atKey West may require
the presence Of the commander OF our squad
ron. Ii was said, not long since, that Caoii-
20 had been held in Havana, to discuss the
oropriety and expediency OF attacking Com
uodore Porter within the harbor OF Key west,
and, of course, within the jurisdiction OF The
United States. II is reported that majority
were in favor of the measure, but wives,
the Captain General, and Commodore La
borde, were opposed to it, being OF opinion
that j, would violate the neutrality OF the United
States. I; is also rumored that Com. Lahorde,
commander Of the Spanish naval forces, has
made acomplaiht TO the Collector at Key West
against the conduc, of Com. Porter; and that
The Spanish authorities have also made formal
complaints to our Government oil The violation
Of the neutrality on the part OF the Mexican ma
val forces. II is probable that Com. Rldgely
has been ordered there, to enquire into these
matters, to prevent abuses on either side; and
TO protect the neutral character Of the United
States.
We understand that, BY the sentence OF the
Naval Court Martial, recently held in this city,
Lieut.. JAMES E. LEGARE was dismissed from
the United States Navy, and that the sentence
has been approved BY the President.
