The presbytery of New Brunswick has como

This section is a remnant of the restrictions
invented by the popes, who multiplied sins,
that they might sell the moro indnIgences and

CAPITAL TRIAL IN BosToN. The Bos-
ton Courier of Friday, contained an alb
stract of the trial before the U. 5. Circuit
Court, of Capt William d. Freeman, Of the
brig Floyd, of Boston, for numbering one
of his crew. There were two counts in
the indictment, charging the prisoner with
assaulting and beating the sailor and cast
ing him into the sea /; and the other with
assaulting and beating him, and compell-
ing him, when in extreme sickness and
weakness of body, TO go up aloft, when
the sailor fell into the sea and was drown
ed. The name of the deceased was White
head. He shipped at Charleston, s. c..
and sailed from that port on the 18th of
April. 1t was in evidence that the Captain
had from the first entertained strong pre-
judices against the deceased, and had con-
tinually imposed upon him in a most cruel
manner. On the Goth of April he ordered
1he deceased to be tied with rope round
his body and his hands confined to a bolt
in the deck, and to be kept there for about
forty hours with nothing to eat or drink but
a half biscuit and three gills of water
During this time the Captain gave him a
little gin, in which he had two doses of tar
tar emetic. The deceased was released
on the 26th and ordered aloft to assist in
reefng the topsail. He stated to the cap
tain that he was unable, but the captain
drove him up to the rigging. In going up,
the deceased was unable to maintain his
hold, fell into the sea, and was drowned.
The trial occupied two whole days, and the
case was given by Judge Story in charge
of three hours in length, to the Jury, who
brought in verdict of gully Of yMa1siGugh-
ter. This trial developed the most barba-
rous cruelty, on the part of the prisoner,
and we hope, for humanity sake, that
another Instance of like conduct will never
be xhibited.-SaLem Observer.

GIN.-In our last, we stated on the authority
ofthe editor the Bolivar Gazette, and Santi-

last week, after he returned from the meeting
of the society for the suppression Of intcmpcr-
ance, he refused to drink glass Of his ia
vourits beverage, "Barber's besi, ;" which was
offered him by one Of his family. This he now
resolutely denies, and says, that we have mis-
represented him; from which we infer that we
misunderstood him, and that he informed us
that he did swallow the potation. In justice to
him, We correct our error, and if it viii give hun
any satisfaction we state, that he drank as
much gin on the occasion in question, as was
necessary" according to the rules Of the So
cety

THE THEATRE.-We have the pleasure Of
informing the lovers Of the drama, that our
Theatre will probably be opened in the course
Of the ensuing week, and will be under the
management Of Messrs CLARK and CHAR
MOCK, who have purchased the unexpired
lease Of Mrs. ELIZABETH POWELL g. Co.
We state, upon the authority of one of the
Managers, that unwearied exertions will be
made, to render the dramatic season attra CT
i've, that the first talent Of the country will be
engaged, and that the celebrated Mr.. E. For
REST will make his appearance, soon after the
Theatre is opened.
But few men in this country are better quail
flied for the management Of a Theatre, than
Messrs. CLARE and CHARNocK, and none,
certainlys more anxious to CRAFTY the public.
We cannot but believe, that the Theatre,
under the management Of these gentlemen,
will prove a source of profit to themselves, and
a source Of qualification to the lovers of the
drama; and it is hoped that they will find en-
couragement, to the full amount of their most
sanguine expectations.

ministration, he holds an Office, from which he
cannosbs removsd---as by its tenure, the incum-
bent retains II, 80 long as he discharges its du-
ties at q cheaper rate than others will--which
Yields him the sum Of three thousand dollars .
year. He is mail contra ctor; and although
he holds himself accountable for the ful6lmcnt
Of his contracts, h> farms them out to post-ri-
ders, who,perform their duties, and Mr.. Hill
pockets the emolumsnt.
: Besides the benefits thus received at the
hands ofthe governmental he is enabled to derive
further advantages from his contracts: as they
enable him to give an extensive circulation to
his paper, and to communicate it where it was
never known, and where it never would be
known, but for the many advantages OF
communication which he possesses over his
ncighbors. It is stated, on the authority of
"thoso who know" that Mr. Hill pays his
post-riders with newspapers. This we doubt;
and although We know that an estate Of some
value was purchased many years since in this
town, and paid for IN hens-cgss, we are not pre-
pared to believe that post-rider, was eyer paid
four or five hundred dollars h year, in hewspa-
pers.
Mr.. Hill must be one Of the most avaricious
men in the world; and not content with receiv-
ing three thousand dollars a year from the
government, lie complains most bitterly, be-
cause the printing Of the laws has been taken
from him! Since the patronage Of tho Depart
ment Of State has been taken from him, he
has been unusually virulent in his denuncia-
tons Of the administration and talks loud
and large about his patriotism, independence
and honest political zeal
The New Hampshire Patriot complains, be-
cause it is not supported by those it abuses; it
has no right to complain, when those presses
which are devoted to the administration, and
labor TO support it, receive none of its assist
aIce. No paper in the country has more yea
lously endeavored to support the wise and ef-
fcient measures Of the administration, than
this; but we do not receive one farthing of its
patronage! But yet, like the Z" son Of Alkno-
mac" We "scorn to complain" II the ad-
ministration presses do not murmur because
they are not patronized by those they support,
why should those complain, who cannot justly
expect any aid!

Speeches of the Hon. Henry Clay.


A neat edition of the speeches of the Hon.
Henry Clay, delivered in the Congress Of the
United States, and on public occasions, has
been published by Mr.. William Worsloy, Of
Louisville, Kentucky. The work, as the read
er will readily conclude, is one Of great intc-
rest, and presents some Of the finest specimens
of American eloquence, that have thus far
been laid before the public.
Attached to the work, is biographical
sketch Of Mr. Clay, from which we select the
following extract, and regret that our limits
will not admit of our copying from il more CO.
piously:
"The admirers Of Mr.. Clay may safely chal-
enge a comparison Of that eminent orator and
statesman, with any other public man Of the
age. Powerful talents and commanding elo-
quence, which distinguish him with many 9TH
ers, are not the features Of Mr.. Clay's charac-
ter, upon which posterity will dwell with the
most respect. When the factions an1 the cal
umnies OF the present day are past by, succeed
ing generations will pronounce grateful eulo-
Nv upon his public services, and rank him
among the most distinguished public benefac-
tors. Posterity will then pronounce with equal
truth and Justice, During the course Of a
long and arduous public life, he made his coun-

OBsERvArIoN.-There is no safety in asso-
ciating with those, who, having lost all sense
Of decency, propriety and morality, push them
selves into your society, to enable themselves
TO retrieve lost reputation. If you speak
with them at all, you are sure to be worried
by their insolence and impudence, on occa-
sons when you ore so situated, that to be
known to hold any intercourse with them, is
TO acquire tho reputation of common black
guard If you avoid all intercourse with them,
you are sure to incur their wrath, for even
when the Infamous are justly neglected, their
Indignation is aroused, and they seek for re-
venge. Treat them with civility and they
will take advantage Of your kindness and
claim the honour Of your acquaintance; and
you will be sure to be annoyed by those whom
you would not conde,end to spit upon. It is
impossible to be always on your guard, when
conversing with such rermin, and whatever
you say in their presence is sure to be msrep-
resented; and man of any standing, had
better trust his money-not with gang
Of pickpockets-but with common swin-
dley, than his fame with such cowardly in
cendaries.

Reporter, is worthy Of imitation. He knew his
rights and he did not hesitate to defend them.
though grave legislator was opposed to him,
and attempted to frown. him out Of existence.
We admire his Independence, and shall always
remember the 6rmnoss displayed BY him, dur
ing the celebrated Calhoun investigation, when
the united opposition, were menacing him, and
uttering their threats. To the Phoenix are we
indebted for much valuable information, and we
wish its proprietors and editor, all the success
they can hope for.

INpEPENDENr PREssEs.-One Of the most
Independent Presses we know of, is the Alex
sndris Phoenix, published in Alexandra, Dis
trict Of Columbia, and edited by William Thorn
ton, Esq. a gentleman who during the last war,
was attached to the United statas' Army.

he deported himself the last winter, when Mr..

The ARcApE.-we are informed by one
Of the propretors of the Arcade Stock, that
an application will be made to the Legislature
during its present session, for an act to incor-
porate the Providence Arcade Company, and
we cannot but hope it will be readily granted.
as we cannot conceive that any reasonable OBJ
lection can be preferred against the applica-
ton. The applicants do not ask for Bank
Charter, now SO odious to the eyes ofthe Cen
eral Assembly; they only ask for an act Of in
corporation, to enable them to convert real
property, into personal, for their own convcn-
venience. and to enable them to obviate the
thousand difficulties which are always realized,
when real property is held by joint tenants or
tenants in common. Property held by either Of
these tenures, is subject to thousand embar-
rassmcnts which arc exploded the moment it
is converted into personal estate; and can, like
bank, or canal stock, be thrown into the mar
ket, and sold for what il is worth, whilst on
the contrary, real estate held in common, or
joint partnership. cannot be sold without great
difficulty; and often to effect a sale, great sac
riices must be made which if tho property were
converted into real estate, would not be IN
Cured.
The individuals engaged in the Arcade en-
terprize, should be encouraged in carrying into
execution, work, which will SO largely re-
dound to the credit and beauty of the town,
and which is worthy of all the commendation
it has received.
We do not apprehend that the application
will meet with any opposition, unless sectional
jealousies should be called into action, by those
who are inimical to the increasing prosperity
Of the town, and who look upon us with an
eye Of local jealousy. We trust that the dele
cation, will, without dissenting voice, vote in
favour Of the application, and that on this oc-
cason at least, country and town interest will
not be made to clash. The Arcade will be
commenced in few days; and we state on
the authority Of one Of the proprictors, that
nothing at present exists, to retard its progress.
