W-WAsHINGToN PAPERS. We respect
fully invite the attention Of the reader, TO the
very interesting Letter of the Reverend Jared
Sparks, Editor of the North-American Re-
view, to Mr.. Justice Story, which will be found
on the first page of this days paper
Mr.. Sparks, has for the last two months,
been busily engaged at Mount Vernon, in pre-
pairing for the press, the Letters and papers OF
General Washington, which will be furnished
the public, at as early period as practicable,
and will, we think. be read with no ordinary
avidity, by all who revere the memory, and re-
fleet with admiration on the brilliant career OF
the father Of American Liberty. The task
could not have been assigned to abler hands
for, Independently of the resources placed with
in the reach of Mr.. Sparks, he is an elegant
and accomplished classical scholar, and will
do justice to the work in which he is engaged
Although we rejoice, that the papers OF
Washington are to be placed before the world,
we think, that the compiler or editor, would do
well TO omit publishing all that are not decid-
edly interesting, for if the whole be published,
they will make work, which it would take an
age to read.

n The THEATRE. II will be seen by the
advertisements of the day, that the Theatre
will be re-opened on Monday evening with
g Cherry and Fair STAR and the humorous
farce of the Turnpike Gate. We are advised
by those who are capable ofjudging, that, the
melo-drama, of Cherry and Fair Star, will be
cotton up in handsome manner, and will be
worthy of the patronage of the public. Mr..
Sommervllle, from the Lafayette Theatre,
New-York, has been engaged to sustain the
low comedy department, and we are told that
he is very clever in that line Of business. Mrs.
HamblIn, will make her appearance in the
course of the ensuing week, and soon after,
her husband, a great favourte, will make us u
visit.

lief Of their rights being invaded. In strict
law. this sangn'nary punishment was Justiiable,
It the detachment for six months service was
then legal. We say il, because there was a
time when three months was the legal limit 10
the service Of drafted militia. We are not sat
istied with the account Of the proceedings as
published. What was the defence of the prs-
oner, or Of any of his fellow-sufierers! II any
defence was made by them, we request its
publication, that we, in common with our fell
low citizens generally, may have a view ofthe
whole ground. The refusal Of the New-York
militia to cross the line to Canada, under the
influence Of constitutional scruples, was quite
as worthy Of summary punishment the de-
termination to go home, on the part of those
militia who weIe shot: yet We do not recollect
that any Of them were put to death.
In short, we are altogether opposed to shoot
ing militia men, unless in extreme cases
We are not yet ourselves exempt by age from
militia duty, and have no idea of any four OF
five OF our militia officers being allowed to dis
pose OF our lives at pleasure, for not recogniz-
ing any construction which it may please them
TO put on our duty or on theirs. We believe,
it is true, that cases may occur for the appli-
cation OF martial law. in all its rgor, TO embo-
died militia. But we are not satisfied that the
case Of Harris and his associates was such a
case. The recollections of the Colonel of the
disaffccted Regiment are no doubt faithfully
stated, according to his present impressions
His testimony, however, is of no sort of value
in determining the question as to the necessi-
~ of executing those men. Nothing but the
evidence and proceedings on the trial can ct
tie that question. 1t appears to us to be in
cumbent on the friends Of General Jackson, to
publish an exact transcript of the record in
each Of these six cases, since it has been
brought by them into the public view.''

D;. MELANCHOLY AccIpENr.

o.. MELANCHOLY Whilst
the mechanics were employed yesterday, in re-
moving the old Lee house, formerly standing
on the lands now owned by the Arcade Conn
pany, Mr.. Charles Tabcr, respectable young
man, aged eighteen years, was killed. In as
ssting 10 remove a stick of timber, it fell, and
lodged upon his head, and at the instant he
was cut OF from existence. He died without
n struggle or groan. Mr.. Taber was Young
man, up TO whom bis aged parents looked for
support, and promised TO be useful TO socicty
His untimely exit can be attributed to accident
alone; and no blame can be attached TO anv
one for the occurrence Of the melancholy
affair.

G-NEw THEATRE. We learn, that a
number Of our public spirited citizens, are
making arrangements to build a new Theatre,
to supply the place of the old one, which from
its location, is not so agreeable as could be
wished We are authorized to say, that it is
most likely that the proposed building, will be
commenced as soon practicable, prob ably
this season. 1t is the intention of the gentle
men concerned, to have handsome cdiiice,
and one that will answer for a winter, az well
as for summer scheme 1t is very desirable
to have a winter theatre in place like this,
and We feel assured, that if one is established,
it will be amply patroniled.

The Theatre closed in Philadelphia on the
18th inst. after the company played l35 nights.
The gross receipts of the entire season, bene-
fits and all, are estimated, we learn, at about
seventy thousand dollars, of which from fifteen
to seventeen thousand dollars, it is believed,
accrued TO the Manager, as clear profit. So
prosperous campaign has not been realized
for the last twenty years. Mr. Macready
cleared near $4,000 in his two trips. Miss Kei-

his own sex, and would not interfere with af-
fairs which belong exclusively to the Ladies.
But in this am disappointed, and perceive
by his paper Of to-day, that he has undertaken
to dictate us, relative to our apparel, and with
vulgar cOarseness, compares our bonnets to
coiice pots, and Our dresses to awnings. If the
gentleman considers himself capable of decid-
ing upon what we shall wear, il would be well
in him to establish man-mill illiner's and man
mantua-makcr's shop. l vow, his impudence
is insulierablc; and, as a small punishment for
his interfering in our private affairs, De of our
neighbourhood, heve voted him linsey- wool
