Adams Staiue.-Mr Sprague ma. introduced in
TO the House OF Representatives Of Massachusetts,,
resolution for procuring Statue OF the late JOSH
ADAMS, to be placed in the Dorlc II II Of the State
House in Boston. The subject was referred to Il
select Committee. Of which Mr. Sprague was
Charnan, who unanimously reported in favor O!
the measure. The following is extract from
the report " Well known the exertons Of Mr..
Adams, as the great Legislator of our State, in
drafting that Constitution which has served a
del to other States and the Union and in securing
in the Treaty of Peace right. to the Fisheries ;
the source OF sustenance TO thousands OF indvidu-
als. and the great nursery of that naval power,
which, in his youth, he had predicted. This series
Of great actions has segureG to Mr.. Adams i'm
mortality in the hearts Of his countrynen, and Of
the friends Of Liberty throughout the world Friend

just coloring and detracon cannot sully his fame.

Mr.. Sprague, delivered a long and eloquent
speech in favor of the Report OF the Committee
which published at length in the Salem Register
Of Monday last. He closes with the following pa.
ragraph
"When Mr. Adams undertook to obtain the bless
ing we now enjoy, he looked not to the cost When

quire whether he might by possibility thereafter be

THE NEw-lIAMPsHIRE PATRIoT.-The editor
of the New Ilamp.h,re Patriot, who has for the
three last years, bee laborins to deane the paii,i
cal and private reputation Of Nh. Adams, and for
the wo last years, equally as ndustriousiy engaged
70 attempting to bespatter Mr.. Secretary Clay, has
in his periodical OF the 9th instant, diverted
his spleen from IN two eminent Statesmen, and
esn'tutea himself with bespattering our humble
selves
Ia previous number of the Cadet we took oc
casiol 10 notice, the childish rawlings Of the editor
Patriot, who because the heads Of the admnsrs ton
would not support him in his miserable attempt to
to njure them, and have withdrawn from him their
patronage, has SIT up a most deafening outcry
about persecution, and for thus presumng to exc.
else right guaranteed TO US, we are met with IA
shower OF caumny and billingsgae blackguard.
The gross and ungentlemauly personalities, which
MIR. Hill, has thought proper to indulge in, we
shall suffer to pass us without much notice, and
in stopping to reiute the charge of being creatures OF
Mr.. Clay, we do that which is perhaps unnecessary,
that which we well assured no viii be-
lieve, and which the editor OF the New Hampshire
Patriot, knew to be ridiculous and untrue when he
wrote it.
The gentleman will, trust excuse US, when
we toll him that we take but little interest in his
concerns and that we care not whether he is, or IL
not patronzed by the government, and we will add
that we should have but sorry opinion of the
present administration, it the heads OF it paronzed
their determined aud unprincpled loes to the ex-
clusion of their friends and advocates.
The present trnng controversy has originated
in au article published IN subsequent number,
wherin IT was stated, that the public printing was
removed from the New-Ham shire Patriot and the
Eastern Argus, on the united accommodation and
representation OF the delegates from Maine AMI
New Hampshire, and for this, the editor Of the Pat
riot has called US to account, and proHounces
assertion TO be a sheer falsehood. 70 prove that
we uttered that which is false, he ha. copied lelte
from Mr.. Senator Bell, in which the writer says,
that when he was informed that a change Of papers
was about to take place, he advised the Secretary
oi State to transfer the government patronage TO
the New Hampshire Journal. Copies OF seven
o.her letters are also given, purpor,ng to have
been written by the New Hampshire delegation,
all Of a similar import, but as names are gwen
they are liable to be treated fogeries, aud such
we consider them.
II is not worth ones while to spend suy time on
this subject, and in conclusion we have to add thai
from the arguments and proofs offered by the Pat.
riot, the pubc,are left TO infer, that the change Of
patronage was made solely at the instance snd re-
commendation Of the united delegation from New
Hampshire.

Tie Editor of the Alexandra Phenix, in speak
ing Of the recent attempt of Mr.. Weems to expel
him from the House of Representatives, makes the
following independent remarks
"When members of Congress deport themselves
as gentlemen they will be respected and treated as
such bat when they descend to billingsgate-cal
Editors ,o0rns, fidrs, rogues, hreings-talk about
cOWskinring-charge the President Of the United
States with buying his ofice-denominate the Sec
retary Of State Political Juggler, and highly
speetable members Of the House tools and under
l-strappers-insuI the Speaker in his Char-abd
outla<e decency upon every occasion, even in the
Presidents House--they must no expect 10 escape
anmady ersion or to retreat securely behind their
constitutional privileges.
The part which Mr.. Forsyth played in Weems'
Farce, was more than expected. We
wounded the gentleman's pride during the last ses,
slon by associating him with Rreemer and Mitchell
aud he will never forgive US for it. Knowing that
he has been governed by spirit of retaliation
we overlook his folly as the unavoidable con.e-
quence OF his vanity and childish rrita-
bity. Not so. however, with Hamilton. lie is
the master spirit Of the storm, while Mitchell and
Neens only the b.gs OF wind which he squeezes
at pleasure. lie is one Of those pert little gentle
men, who possessing querulous aud pee vsh tempers
have been spoiled by being ch osen Knight Erranfs
to their party, and who think that their wit and
their pistol exploits at once the admiration
the terror of the world. 1t will be seen ny the
debate, that his remarks the outpourngs of a
morbid minJ iretted INTO petulance, rather than
warmed into ind gnaton. He charges with
being IN the pay of Government-an asss ton
which ali who know will hesltatiusiy pro.
nounce intentional false or tuil of ignorance Our
columns show no marks of Government patronage,
and to suppose that We are secretly paid, would
be estimating our services higher than 1t is the
wish OF the gentleman to do"

THE Circus, with the Boston Company, cngag-
ed by Mr.. Hunter, the manager, and conducted by
him, and Messrs. Page and Harrington closed "A
very successful engagement last Saturday evening
to full and fashionable audience, who expressed
their entire satisfaction, in long and repeated bursts
OF applause.
Last evening Mr.. Hunter re-opened his CIRcus
to a very fashionable house, and by his surprising;
Performances, us usual, commanded the paudits OF
those who visited him. Mr.. Hunter, s OF himself IL
host, and If he should attempt to crafty the public,
the ensuing week. we hope, as sincerely as trust,
thst he will be as fully patronized, bis unequal
led merits deserve. We understand, that it is his
intention to engage full company OF equestrians
as soon as prsctcs BILE and feel assured that his
efforts TO please, will not pass of unrewarded.

il is among the wonders Of the age to see Mr..
Hill, editor Of the New Hampshire Patriot, sup
porting General Pierce, tor Governor Four year
ago he was not fit for the Office in the opinion OF
Mr.. Hill, winch he puhlck'y avowed in his CO.
lumns, but now the case is different, inasmuch as
Mr.. II. introduced a resolution into the Caucus
held at Concord last week, 10 support him at the
next election for that Office. General Pierce has
always been Il consistent Republican and known
friend to his country, and from our personal know
edge Of his qualifications for the office for which he
is now a candidate, we are satisfied the reemen Of
New Hampshire could not make u better selection.
But the time wa. when Mr.. Hin was deter n inej
TO sacrifice him, because he would not in every re-
.spact become subservent to his will.
We we'll rccollect the time when a plan was la id
70 prevent the election of General Pierce as coun,
cellor from his own ounty, and the articles which
were published In the Patriot a. that time on the
subject.

MARCHANT AND COLSON.

The former of these two CRIMINALS who
by the sentence OF the law were pubiICkly
to eXpiate their guilt yesterday, it seems
was determined to take the execution OF
Justice into his own hands, and by commit
ting suicide add another to his already
black catalogue Of crimes. Since his
conviction and confinement in Jail, the con-
duct of Marchant has been that Of the most
depraved and hardened villain, refusing to
listen to the language OF the clergyman,
who at the solicitation OF the Marshal,
kindly consented to visit him, with the in
tention oI preparing his mind for the So
lemn event which was soon TO remove hum
from the world.
At twelve or one o'clock on Tuesday
night tenant Of one OF the apartments
heard groan, and IN the morning when
the prison keeper visited his room, he
torn from his blanket, and handkerchief
about his neck, from the crate which ligh-
ted his room, and dead A few drops of
blood had flown from his mouth, and his
body was perfectly cold when. found
His associate in crime, Colson, from the
time Of his trial, to the moment Of execu-
ton, was humbly penitent, and conducted
like one sincerely impressed with the hei-
nousness Of his wicked deeds and who
wished to prolong his existence only to
make his peace with the Most High whom
he had offended On Monday he was Wis
tied by Clergyman, and one or two 9TH
ers, in whose presence he made full and
voluntary confession in which he related
all the particulars of the murderous act
which had brought him TO this ignomln-
ious fate, and which differs not materially
from the testimony given on his trial /; his
appearance being that ola man, who aware
of the brief space Of time allotted him, felt
anxious to improve it in removing heavy
load from his conscience, and thus die In
peace with the world.
Al few minutes before eleven o'clock,
yesterday, he was taken from the Jail to
the place of execution in the rear of the
prison yard, and with little assistance as
cendel the scaiIold during the religious
services on the occasion, he appeared con-
siderably agitatcd and in devout prayer 4;
and few moments before his last he said
something to those around him the pur-
port of which was, his wish that others
might take warning by his fate, and shun
the paths of temptation and vice. He then
burst forth in distinct exclamations, earnest
ly entre eating his God TO "iorgiye his
ciime"-"rocoive his SOUL" SC until about
five minutes after eleven, when the plat
form dropped and he was launched into
a shoreless eternity. Boston Traveller.

Master o. Shaw, gave a concert at Franklin Hall,
which, notwithstanding the extreme inclemancy Of

satisfactory manner, many of which, as well as the
musical strains Of Mr.. Papauti, performed on the
French Horn. were unanimously, and loudly en-

Whilst MIR. Williamson and Mrs. Papanti. de-

DHoN. JoHN l1oLMFs OF MAINE.-h an
nouncing the fact ofthe political defeat ald dscom
future the Honourable John Holmes. Of Maine, has
recently experienced we viii be permitted to re-
joice an3 to congratulate the treemen Of Name,
that they have succeeded in removing from the
Senate, time serving man-and who rs all things
to all men, and who has completely boxed the po.
htical compass.
Ii seems from the result of the election, that Mr..
Holmes popularity has been lost,-he has sacrificed
and " jonathan Russelitd' himself, IN attempting
to gain the goal of his ambition by species OF
sycophancy aud degrading servlity. 1t is not per-
haps very natural for us to have any particular
feelings in relation to the political transac of
other States, but IN the Maine election, have felt
more than ordinary interest. For Mr.. Holmes, ii
caunOt be expected We entertain any personal hos.
tiiity although the columns Of our paper, were
lrom principle, at one time, engaged in opposing nis
claims to his present situation. Our best endeav-
were then exerted to oppose HIM. AMI although
not aware, that they in the least affected ms
chance ofsuccess, we glad that they we've used
for that purpose by others, OF far more influence
than humble selves and as they met the de-
sired object, of wishes has been fully real
ized.
Before we part with Mr.. Holmes. we will inform
him, that we shall be right glad to find him in re-
,rement and hope that he will now find ample
leisure to continue the controversy which he COM
nenced last summer. By the way, there is small
dispute between us, relative to the opinions Of the
Brtish Minis,ry,as reported IN Bells (London)
Weekly Messenger, relative 10 the conduct of Gen.
Jackson, in putting to dea h Arbuthnot aud Am
blister, during the Seminole War. which we hope
tir. Holmes will now fud line to canvass.
