By inserting the following Memorial on the uljec, of the contemplated Removal of the Indians," you would much obige MANY READERS.
 At numerous asess;ng of the citizens of the town of Sharon, convens8 as the Town House by public notice on the l5els day of the current month, the Hon. Johs Cotton. Smith was called to the Chair. and Col. George King. jr. appointed Secretary.
 Reseived anamimsssiy, That the following memo rial be signed by tie Chairman and Secretary in be- half of this meeting and transmitted to Senators and Representatives in Congress with request that she same may be laid before that honorable body.
 To THE HosoRABLE THE CexGREss OF THE UNI TED STATEs-Tbs Memorial of ihe citizens of ihe
 town of Sharon, in the State of Connecticut, in
 public meeting convened, respectfully sheweth:
 That the measures contemplated for the removal of the Indians on our south border, are regard ed by your memorialsts with no common degree of solicitude and they take the liberty of briefly ex-
 pressing their views to your honorable body with all the frankncss which the occasion evidently demands Your memorialists Gorbear to urge single argument
 in support of the original and indeIea.be title of this hapless race to the territory they nhab'. Fortunate y. resort to first principles is rendered wholly un- inasmuch as their title in all its extent has been expressly recognized by our own government with assurances of protection in the enjoyment oi their rights involate and forever. With the Chero- kee nation particularly, (whose case is more immed'- a,ey before the National Legsature.) treaties have been formed for these purposes, invested with every attribute which can render them sacred in the eyes o mankind. Under the guaranty of these treaties the Cherokees have risen, were, into new state o existence. Encouraged by the earnest advice ot on' government and aided by the efforts Of christian be- nevoIence, that interesting People have advanced 'n the career of improvement with rapidity which hal outstripped the most sangHine expectations of the philanihropist, and which, it may be safely affirmed has no parallel in the annals of the human race Int proofs of their progress in the arts of civilized life, the cuyatioR Of science, and in the attainment o religious knowledge, are too numerous 10 be partcu larized, and too universally known to need recital Permit your memoralis,s to ask, with all deference but with an anxiety which cannot be repressed shal

4 melancholy. Oetrage occurred iG Boston on the l3ab uIt. at SaIlagher's Coffee House. Mir. Wauren is a son of Dr.: W. Of that city, and Mr. MOsely is Clerk in counting -ho6se.
 Young Warren entered ille Co5ee- House. and quite uDceremononsty saluted MOsely andone Ortwo others present, with harsh epithes and flourish of hands. This ted to some aercatiOn among the parties, which was finally amicabIy adjusted if exchange of words and shaking of hands at parting, be considered any indication of conciliatory disposition. Warren left the house; and long aer Mosey went out to step into his sleigh which by. At or near the gate, he was met by w. with dirk, who immediately made thrust at his body. Mosey exclaimed, "What, do you intend to murder me ?' "You are vile ras- cal," or some such language, was the repy.-M. was able successfully to parry or two thrusts, but at length his determined aseaant gained the advantage, and the blade of the weapon penetrated the lower part of the abdomen, endangerng the ntestines and some important blood vessels.
 The wounded man was carried into the Coffee House, where he still remains, under the charge of skilfnl medical gentlemen, and u is hoped he mayre- cover. The rash youth has not been seen in public since; and whether he is in town abroad probably no measures to ascertain have been taken.
 The Franklim tPa.) Repository, of Tuesday, says, "Governor Wolf has been burnt in efigy at Somer- set We understand, for appointing Mir. Foy pro- thonotaIy, &c. of that county. Mr. Foy it seems, is a mason, and was friend to the administration of MT. Adalhs."
