WORCESTER. Mass. May 2, Is2e.
 ership.-Mr. John Leonard, of Oakham. hereby gives notice that,On Wednes- day of last week, he entered into c0partner- ship, " for better of for wOrse," for life, with Mss Mary Burr, OfNew B-e.
 Printers in this State, and throughout the Union, will confer favor upon me and my friend by publishing the above in their re- spective papers,"
 In compliance with the foregoing request we hereby let the public to weet,that the said John and Mary have entered into the civil contract of marriage; and we hope that they, will behave civilly to each other and to their neighbOrs. The copartnership of marriage was the earliest shat was formed, and it is the most difficult to dissolve. This Burr that John has taken will stick to him until death, or other casulties relieve him. And we here- by gIve notice, that if we should be called up- on hereafter tO give publicity to a pOrtentOus notice from one of the partners, cautioning the pubic not to trust the other on his ac- count, we shall charge for both advertise ments.-N.

 PUBLIC JOURNALS, &c.-It appears from the researches of M. Adrian Balbi, that up- wards of S,l68 periodicals are published in tnewOrld. Ofthese, 2,142 are published in Europe, 978 in America, 27 in Asia, l2 in Africa, in Oceanica. The greatest rage for periodical literature appears to exist among the English, and the states of English origin for,ou of the S,l68 periodical works publish ed in the world. 1878 belong to the English race, leaving for the rest of mankind only4,~ 79O. It is in the United States of America, however, that this passion prevails most strongly; for with population of only elev- en millions, that country has 800 journals while the British monarchy, with a popuIa- tion of upwards of 14s millions, has no more than 58S periodicals. To show how incon3- patible periodical literature and despotisnl are, it may be remarked. that, with a population ofupwards of thirteen millions, Spain has on- y 16 journals.

As collections are still making for the Greeks, and it is expected another vessel will be despatched from this port in the course of 9 or 3 months with provisions and clothing. We take the liberty to suggest to those who are disposed to contribute to this object, that provisions are at least as much needed by that depressed people as clothes. In conversa- tiOn with our very respectable cOuntryman, Mir. Miller,w has so long resided in Greece and who was the agent in distributing the cargoes of the two vessels sent the last year. we learnt of him that the sufferings though out Greece for the want of food were of the most severe and threatening description. They have been unable for several years to culti- vate the ground, and of course have derived no supplies from their own resources during that long period. In the mean time, their fruit trees have been in great measure de- stroyed, which necessarily adds much to their privations. The Morea presents general scene of desoation--almOst every town, vil- lage and habitation, having been burned or destroyed. 1t is Mir. Miller's belief, that not one family in twenty, in the PelopOnnessus. enjoys the shelter of ahouse. They almost all live in caves. or under trees. They are, indeed. extremely destitute of clothes, and the supplies sent from this country will be of very great importance to their comfort, and a great releftO their necessities. But people can endure n scarcity of this kind better than scarcity of food. Mir. Miller is apprehensive that many persons must perish in the course of this year by starvation. In contributing provisions, it may be well to state, that, in his opinion, kiln dried corn meal IS the most safe, and the most uselIl--riee, and other grain, is liable to suffer on the voyage hy vermin, Be, Indian meal beArs transportation well, and is very valuable ,o the inhabitants.

Fellow Citizens In considering the magnitude
Of the duties enjoned by the Constitution and laws,
upon the President Of he United States, we are apt
to attach too little importance to the office of Vice
President.
We are among those who consider that office of
high Importance. The Senate of the United States
we consider as the sheet anchor ofour safety, amidst
the storms Of faction. 1t is, therefore, OF i'm
portance that the presiding officer of that body
should justly appreciate its rights and dignity and
cause both to be properly respected.
| In addition 10 this, our Chief Magistrate, whoe-
yer he may be, is but mortal-and whenever the
dread summons shall come, he too must lay down
the frail garment of mortality. 1t is, therefore, oil
some importance, in such an event, that his sue.
cessor should be qualifedto administer the govern
ment until the people should have time to supply

THE C.4SE OF NEIL C.ANERON

This poor fellow lost his life under the following
circumstances Colonel King, who commanded at
Pensacola, in 1918. considering Courts Martial
an unnecessary waste of time, ordered his men to
shoot deserters wherever found. This extraordina-
ry innovation he Immediately reported to General
Jackson, WHOM his commanding officer. Colonel
King arrested and tried by court martial, up
on the charge, among others. of having Neal Cam
eron Shot under the above sanguinary order. One
of the witnesses at the Court martial was Cornelius
jackson. private of the 4th Regiment, who swore
that ne was one of the party sent In pursuit OF Neil
Cameron, private of the same regiment, and was
with the sergeant when he came up to Cameron
asleep. They walked him up; he said he was going
back, but was told he must be put to death. He
begged to be taken back, as he was prisoner and
without arms, and ought to be tried. The SER
geant said there was no use OF his being tried, and
told the witness to fire at him. The witness refus-
ed. The sergeant then took the gun, Cameron be-
ing unarmed, and snapped it twice. Cameron still
begged for his llfe---even for short respite to
pent of his sns-but the sergeant sbowed him
through aud left him dead and unburled where
they had found him. The sergeant and witness re-
turned to camp, and the commanding officer told
them they had done ''exactl, right"
COL King In his defence boldly avowed and JUS
titled the proceeding part of system sanctioned
|by the authority Of Gen. jackson. He declared
that he had reported to Gen Jackson the order to
shoot without trial all such his corporas and SER
geants might cho0se to consider deserters and that
the General had 'approbaed the measure" In
proof Of this, he produced letter from Gen. Jack
son, dated at Nashville, April Is, 1919, in which
the General says-sYour conduct in the evacuation
of Pensacola. sOeN as on every other occasion du
ring your unpleasant command in the Spanish pro-
vince, meets my entire appreciation Col. King
was by the sentence Of the Court martial dismissed

Test Mr.. Adams Administration fairly, by either
Mr.. Jefferson's MIR. Madison's or Mr.. Monroes, and
it will be found to be the most economical and ben
e6ciaI to the country.
In three years Mr.. Adams has paid toward the
reduction of the National debt, thirty eight millions
of dollars
For Internal Improvements, twelve millions Of
dollars
Mr.. Adams has recovered from the British, by ne
gotiation, more than million of dollars for slaves
taken away during the war
From Russia. Denmark and other powers, large
sums for spoations our Commerce have also been
recovered.
| Four Commercial Treaties with foreign nations
have been arranged at Washington, each containing
the long contested American principle that the flag
shall cover the cargo-that free ships shall carry
free goods-n direct opposition to the "right Of
search" claimed by the British, and heretofore re-
| sisted by our government inglehanded.
Mr.. Adams has preserved the peace Of the coun-
try with all the World. and extended our Commerce
among foreign nations-and
The Mechanics Manufacturers and Farmers have
been protected and placed on fuoting with the
merchant and wealthy importer of foreign goods.
For the public prosperity and the blessings enjoy
ed under this Administration we ought to be crate
full to Providence. The prayers Of all good men
should be offered to Heaven for their continuance
Il The character OF the bold conspiracy winch mas
been formed by the Jackson party is gradually Leak
ing out. We ahall take early occasion to go tur-
Their into it. In the time, let it not be forgot
Item that the Southern leaders themselves, who now
declaim concerning the intolerable oppression of
the Tariff, voted against every proposition to reduce
the duties, and made the declarationthat they desire
ed 10 make the bill as oppressive possible, IN or-
der to ercite the Souh to resistance Ii is evident,
therefore, that the present efforts to the Sou

concerted scheme.
