Police CASES There is kind of itera-
tuyc which is becoming highly fashionable
among our city cetemporarics, against which
we must enter our protest. We allude to the
pol;ce Cases and BoD Street Trials, which
are reporicd with ms much care and solemnity
as if the perusal ofihem in any case could pro-

panied with all those touches of humour which
are capable Of being conveyed by low and
WI gar language, a description Of the manners
and address of blacklegs, sots, &c. sc. Sure
ly such n practice is at once disgusting, useless
and corrupting. What has moral and order
" community to do with these paltry details Of
yict and debauchery? The less we sea Of such
scenes the better. 1t is said that when the
lcentous play Of tho " Beggars Opera" was
first performed in London, introducing the
pubIic to the interior of brothes and gambling
houses, and making swindlers and highway
men the heroes of the piece, the number
Of thefts and robberies was far greater than at
any other period Vice was presented under
a new and most captivating aspect, and the
wagering heroes on the stage caused host
of imitators and followers in real life Such is
the evident tendency ofthese "poice reports,
the hint of which was adopted from the Lon
don papers. They make the community ia
mar with debauchery and vice; with the
habits mt nners and conversation Of class OF

KENTUCKY ELECTION.

THIS contest for the election OF State Officers
IN Kentucky, is carried on whh great violence
on both sides Neither private character,nor
pecunary affairs, are held sacred; every trans
action of life is brought before the public
Mr.. BAaRY, the Jackson candidate for Gov
ornor. has already taken his tour through the
different counties, and made stump speeches
to the people. Gen. METcALrE, the admin
is,ration candidate, has given notice. in long
address to the people, that he shall be cup
and DOING as soon as he returns from Wash
ington, and shall pay his respects to the cleo
tors in person.
Gen. Ms address is well written, and con-
tains much good sense He speaks with much
n,odcsty of his own rise and progress, in po-
ltical life. GAS the resident Of little valley,

which i, had been the pleasure Of those who
composed it, to place me, my respected fo'hng
neighbors selected mo as one of themselves
10 run for the Legislature. 1t was here that
public career received its impulse, extending
first over my County, and finally over the Con-
pressional District. AT the call Of that class
of citizens Of which am an humble member,
have l, on various occasions, laid down the
instruments of my daily labor, to serve them
and my country. both in civil and military Gu
acitics, at home and abroad.-It Is to them
am indebted for my elevation to office. II Is
to them that am bound in all the sacred OBJ
legations of gratitude and respect. And no
man shall deprive them of my sincere acknowl-
cdgements, or rob them of their due by any OF
the unballowed or unworthy imputations OF the
day. Justice, honor, gratitude, and even self
interest still bind me to them. Our avocations
| and pursuits are the same, our interests inseP-
arable.'
| From all the information which we can
gather, we should think there was no doubt of
tho election of Gen. MErCALFE. He is ex-
tremcly popular with the people at large, and
! his private chara cter is unmpeachabe. Ills
political course has always been consistent and
upright; an associate and warm friend Of MIR.
Clay, he has defended that gentemnn's char
actcr on all occasions when it has been as
sailed.
Mr.. BARRY seems to have many charge:
brought against him which neither himself moi
his friends can explain. He is accused of dis
honesty in his private Transactions. and incon
sistency in his political conduct, and we shoul'
think from the lame defence which his friend
make, that both charges mus: be true.

When the vote Of thanks TO the Chairman
was passed, the veteran Commodore addressed
the meeting and with much energy and feeling
expressed his views Of the pending political
contest; he deprecated the election Of General
Jackson as a dangerous precedent, his claims
being founded altogether Oh the merit OF mill

Convention in staining the well earned pop

MR.. burgess.

The citizens of Pawtucket, in inviting this
gentleman to dinner in that place, to-mor'

spirit in acknowledging high public services
Mr.. Burgess has bes indcfatignble in his excr-
tions during the late session of Congress, in
favor Of measures on which the welfare and the
prosperity of tins section Of the country vitality
depended. His labours have been crowned
with success; and it seems but just that public
sentiment should express, in the strongest
ma nner, its sense Of gratitude and obligation
for his zeal aud services. When we consider
what Rhode Isand would have been without
her manufa ctures, and what she would again
be should that branch Of industry become par
alizsd in its operations, it will readily be ac-
knowledgcd that her prosperity and success
are directly Interested in the cause which Mr..
u. 50 cloquenly espoused. Snch an express
ion of public sentiment is therefore peculiarly
proper from the citizens Of Pawtucket, inc
head quarters of manufa ctures; and from the
names of the gentlemen on the Committee o'

will do honour tn their taste and hospitality
