PROVIDENCE.

LIBEL SuIr.--Thomes e. Fay, late Ed
itor Of the Georgetown {. c. Gazette. was
recently tried for a libel on the Rev. Mr.. Pos
tell u e'hodist Preacher, by accusing HIM
with reading at Church an Gle ctioneering piece
against a MIR. Grer, then u a candidate for
Sheriff. After a patient investigation, the
Judge charged the Jury that the publication
was one of the most virulent he had ever
known and such as required an example to be
made. The defendant was sentenced TO six
montIs's imprisonment, and to pay a small
fine W Y. Gazette.
REMAnKs.-A part of the foregoing para
groph-that part which leaves Mr.. Fay, in sp
unfair posture before the public, was published
a few days since in one Of the papers of the
Town and the manner in which it was done,
gave evidence of a kind Of arrogance and
chuckling or as Cherry would say, it threw
out a /" damnabie hint and inuendo,' which we
were sorry 10 notice.
We are advocates for tho liberty ofthc press,
but would oppose its prostitution as warmly
as any one; but we are prepared 10 regret. that
a Jury was found, which would bring in a ver-
dict Of guilty, against Mr.. Fay. His offence,
it seems, consists in his having charged a Clcr-
gyman, with having inirodu cd politics 10 the
pulpit, which charge was probably well found
ed; and yet, because he preferred the charge.
he is to be openly and legally denounced, to
gra lfy the Church.
We agree precisely with Mr.. Lang Of the
New-York Gazette. and say with him, "wo
should be glad to hear the details of this libel,
by which the learned Judge has deemed it ne
cessary to imprison an Editor six months. We
have heard i%nisters from the pulpit denouncc
our country, denounce our foreign friends, de-
nounce the struggle for our rights, and preach
sermons Of a p~aIpabIe political charactcr.-
Before, therefore, we are prepared to give
them exclusive privileges in this respect, We
should be glad to learn the nature and extent
OF the libel, in order 10 ascertain whether it
corresponds |ith the punishment"

JERVIS ROCKFORD,
HAIR DIRE Err.

DE P~ECTFULLY informs the public in
NJ general, that he has taken a room, in
Whitman's Block, NO. 8, Westminstcr-street,
where he has commodious accommodations
for Gentlemen's Hair Cutting, SC.
Permit him TO say a few words upon his pro-
fession.
Doctors Gall and Spurzheim have contend
ed that genius, taste, the passions and all that
upon the formation Of the cranium:-This may
it be said that the beauty of " the human face
diuine," depends upon that great feature of
the countenance, tho HAIR. Fashion has held
a constant reign, exhibiting all the varieties of
her power, over this vegetable Of The human
head-now flowing in luxuriant ~ringlets, and
now shaven with ecclesiastical solcmnity. -
Wigs were invented to give dignity to the wise,
and the appearance Of gravity and wisdom to
the dull; but the age Of wigs is gone forever
tho owl Of Minerva has moulted his feathers,
and fallen from her fane.-The present style
of moulding this feature has never been sur
passed 1T has a classical origin, taken from
the antique crop seen on the Elgin marbles
and Roman coins, uniting Athenian grace
with Roman dignity, and is finely adapted to
the ball room or military parade. This art of
"managlng the hair is one not learned in a
day, but requires skill and experience. The
rule is general but the application must be va
ried for delicate features, by help of this art,
can be built up into something Of a marital air,
and severe limos Of the countenanco softencd
down to sylvan simplicity. If any one doubt
whether this can be done, let HIM come and
test his skill. GIN nov 2I

thus left destitute of an experienced command

whatever fears we had INDUCED, wero eug-

the loss and misfortunes of Che supposed un-
fortunate Hudson.
Whilst thus lying at the mercy oftho waves

gallant commander, and were forcibly remind
