WILSON THE MAIL-R0BBER.

On Monday this case was brought up before the Cir
cult Court OF the United States, in Philadelphia. The
Inquirer OF that city states. III at the indctmsn to
which he had pleaded gully, charging him simply
with robbing the Reading mall and suite citing him 10
an imprisonment Of not less than FIVE than s
years, Judge Baldwin delivered opinion, that the
pardon granted by the President tbs casaI charge
included pardon for the lesser crime, and that the
prisoner could not be sentenced to imprsonmen mt upon
the present Indictment Judge Hopkin,on gave an op-
posite opinion The will be certified 10
the Supreme Court Of the u. States.
The prisoner was then brought up for judgme Mt on
an indictment, 10 which he hal also pleaded guilty
charging him with robbing.the Kimber,on mail. MIR
VIM X. Thompson, merchant of that city, who was
in The Kmberton stage at the time nhen was stopped
and robbed. was examined, and gavsa detailed state.
ment OF the circumstances Of the robbery The court
then fcnenced Wilson to imprisonment at hard iabor
for the term of TEN YEARs the extent Of mt
authorized by the law.
From III. testimony Of Mr.. Thomp,on, il appeared
that EARNS bad been used in the Kimbsrton robbie
ry a. was case in the Reading robbery. The prisoner
had not, however, been prosecuted for the capital Of
fence in the former-Judge Baldwin, therefore, re.
marked to Wilson that he probably owed his escape
second time from the punishmen OF death to the elem
ency Of the President OF the Uned States aud that
the law authorised longer imprisonment than that to
which the court had sentenced him, they would have
inflicted IL upon him.

Thou hast been strung To many themes,
G Ard while I touchsd thy magic strings,
I've sang of golden gorgeous dreams,
Ot valid my dark imaginings;
Z oue Ue'cr bethot that unto thec
Was due q strain Of minstrcsy.
Oh! when upon my heated brain
fllusions SWIM, Of various dyes;
I've wsrblcd tuuiuituous strain,
Aud startled 1t thy Symphonies
And ehsll not then boz to thee,
= And give strain OF minstrelsy!
When all around was gloom-and light
Scemd vanished ever from my eyes.
I've touch'd thy chords--aud visions bright
Ro9ewd my sinking energies; ai,
And I havo felt tho sad-alone-
AS proud as "---" on - throne. .
But thou hast never stepped to chant,
With aduiation's cringing mien,
To point the outward graces-rant
Of beauties never 20 be seen;
Thou hast not given blunt, the lilo,
Beneath the mask of Poesy.
Aud seldom hast thou deignd to praise
The tender warblngs Of Tyre; slfl
And strovc in poets breast to roisc
Unmcet devotion to his fire, t'r
That he might Aattery's inccuce burn,
And pruisc thy music in return.
But thou hast scannd with nodcsiy,
The va ious workings Of the mind,
And wealth and power would defy l
s. Upon the indulent couch reclincd 1L
Thounever how'd beneath their sway, -aI
But sung in thine own simple way.
