vein, and he bled freely, bu. all their ef-
forts to revive him were Intellectual. A
Coroner's inquest was held.
To accomplish his purpose he tied to-
gether three handkerchiets-alter twins
the knot about his neck and fastening the
other end firmly to the CRATE, he got into
a chair then tied his hands behind his back
and then leaped of. His feet just touch
ed the floor.
In his cell were found two Letters, Just
written, one to his father, the other to his
brother George, bidding them adieu. In
the letter to the latter, he moralizes on
the shortness Of the career Of vice, howev-
er prosperous 1t may at first appear, and
warns all young people to be admonished
by his fate, &c. &c.
He was 26 years ofage.
Since the humanity Of our laws re-
quires that the goalers should enforce no
other restraints on prisoners'skept for trial
than such as are necessary for safe custo-
dy, it is obviously in the power Of tho
prisoners to destroy their. own lives. AZ
ter convection only is it deemed humane to
put them in irons; and evcn then they con
trivc means Of suicide.
1t is very probable that the recent dis
coyery ofa quantity Of stolen goods at
Danvers, which has just. been made known
to him, convinced shim that proofs were
thickening Of the depravity Of his life, and
hnrclled him to attempt to escape
from the overwhelming disgrace and
shame.

The editor ofthc Darien, Geo. Phoenix

his own journal. He writes under date
of the first of April:
Died 20 day, after an existence ofnot

Consumption inherited. from its ancestor,
the Darien Gazette, may perhaps be as
signed as ono ofthc remote causes OF IT'S

doubtedly starvation; for with the appetite
ofa cornorant, it Ind scarcely pubulam

hunger nor disease, could subdue its spw-

THE SALEM MURDER.

We learn from Salem, that yesterday
afternoon, about 3 O'Clock Richard Grown
inshicld, committed for trial as principal
in the foul murder of Mr.. White, was
found dead in his cell, having hung him
self to the upper CRATE Of his window with
his neck-kerchief. 1t is said that his
brother George was confined in the ad-
Joining cell, and they frequently talked to
each other Overheard, ofcourse by the
guard,) in the dialect common to persons
Of this stamp. The guard, 90 minutes be
fore Richard was found dead, understood
George to ask him when he was going, to
which he was understood to reply, he was
understood to reply, he was about to go.
Writing materials had been at his dispos-
al but It is not known whether or not he
left any disclosures.
1t is said that some time since their
father had enquircd ifthey wished new
suit Of clothes, before the trial George
signifed that he did, and was measured I;
but Richard declined.
II is susposed that this is the result OF a
deep laid plan on his part (; and that as
he was originally the only one indicted as
principal in the murder, new Indictment
must be made, in which the late disclos-
ures would implicate Jos. J. Knapp, Jr.
as principal, and prevent his being taken
as States evidence, and at the same time
give George chance Of escape.

WHALE Or. Cargo after cargo oil

of the great sea had loosed the hold which
it has so long held upon the mighty levia2
than, and yielded to the enterprise of man
all its treasures. Nantucket and New
Bedford, which have 80 long stood at the
head ofthis business, are redoublng their
exertions and their capital, while many
other towns on our coast, are initiating
their example, with all that ardour and
perseverance, which is a characteristic Of
New-England Nor Is Rhode Island be-
hind Massachusetts, and Connecticut in
the business Of originating wealth from
the mines of old ocean. Newport, War
rem and Bristol, are beginning TO compete
with the most experienced fishers that the
little muddy Island of N Nantucket has ever
produced--those towns, finding that for
cign commerce, which has hitherto sustain
ed them, begins to fail, are learning new
trade, by which to secure an honest liveli-
hood, if not TO amass wealth.

Breach of Pramise. the Court Of
Kings Bench, silk manufacturer Of the
name of Anwyl, has been cast in damages
to the amount of 5O0l. for breach Of prom
ise ofmarriage to miss Coke, Of Leices-
ter,-the plaintiff was a young lady Of
great Accomplishments, and unexceptiona-
Bile in every point Of view-her age was
two and twenty. The defendant was an
uneducated man, somewhere about forty.
He had, by long course of assiduities,
endeavored to secure the young lady's af-
fections; and at his earnest request the
marriage day was fixed. happeared that
miss Coke required TO be bled several
times for some inf1ammatory affection, dur
ing the correspondence which she main-
tanned with the plaintiff; and she was o.
bliged to employ her sister TO write some
of her letters. The defendant declared
that the use other sisters services was
deceit practiced upon him, and refused to
make good his engagement. On being
demonstrated with by the young lady's fa-
ther, he admitted that he was "a villain"
and again fixed the wedding day. Again
he broke his word, and miss Coxe's health
had in consequence been destroyed. A

State Of Pa,tiss IN France. Some Curl
Gus statistical calculations have been re-
Gently entered into in Paris, by NJ. G. Du
pin, with the purpose Of showing the state
and distribution ofthe electoral franchise.
From his expositions, the liberal party in
France seem to have very great MAORI
ty in numbers, as we'll as superiority in
wealth. M. Dupin divides the dapart-
ment into three classes. The first class
includes fitty-one departments, which re-
turn liberal members +; they contain to-
|gethcr "a, 900 electors, and pay taxes to
the amount Of l5l 100000 francs. The
second class includes forty-threc depart
ments, which return absolutsts or minis
terialists these contain 81, 900 electors,
and pay in taxes 46, 900, 900 francs. The
third class, designated neutral, comprises
those departments (eleyen in number)
which return deputies part Of the liberal
side and part ofthc ministerial. The a.
mount Of taxes paid by these departments
is l9,2OO,O 900 francs.
BY this exposition of M. Dupin, it
would seem that the liberals possess two
thirds Of the. hcritable property, and in
numbers exceed the ministerial party a.
