Litchfield enquirer., 1831-04-28

The Washington Telegraph for Thursday ! and Friday last, contains along article under 1 the signature of MT. Green the editor, in which he undertakes. by long series Ofatate- ments and remarks, accompanied by much documentary evidence. to shew the intrlgueS 1 that have been earned OD at Washington, a- mong the choice spirits of the party to which they al! profcssedly belong, to forward their own sinister and selfish views and purp0scs, udder the general mask of friendship to Gen l eral Jackson. If the allegations and proofs in this publication are to be relied upon, and there is certainly good degree of plausIh!ty and probability in them, more hollow hearted, faithIess, and treacherOus gang of politicians never met together on the same arena. They converse together, and cores pond with each other, and improve the first convenient opportunity tO betray each others secrets, and undermine each others interests. Among those who make a conspicuous hgure in Mr. Greens narrative, are the names Of ! President Jackson, MT. Secretary Van Bu- ren, Mr. Secretary Eaton, 2d Auditor Lew" is, 4th, Auditor Kendall. Mf. Blair the editor of the Globe, Mir. NJ. M. Noah Surveyor of this port, Mir. Webb editor of the Courier g. Enquirer, and finally Mir. Gideon Wells edi. tor of the Times, newspaper published in l Hartford, Connecticut. This is something like the old song of '' Four and Itcenty Fiddters 1 oN in q ro.o ;'' though their musc--Owing perhaps to the want of rosin on their fiddle strings, or to cracks in some of their instru- .nents-is somewhat jarring and discordant. 1 We have not room to go further into this controversy at present, having had our atten- ton directed this morning to that between Russia and Poland; and therefore will wind off with advising these combatants to keep their own secrets, and above all things not to trust each other.-N.

 v. S. Bank-The Van Burenized Legisla- ture of New-YOrk have passed resolution against the Bank of tho United States. This same set of political humbugs nominated An drew Jackson for the next Presidency, and pledged the great state to support him, all
 which would look like encouragement to the
 Hero, were it rot that the peopie-the bone
 and muscle of the state a,e beginning tn
 think differently. As for the Legislature, it
 is the passive tool of Van Buren. and at his
 bidding would not hesitate to pledge the state
 to support the Ex-Dey of AIgiers for the next Presidency, or pass a vote of thanks tO his Satanic Majesty. As a specimen ofthe means made use oftu
 force the Anti. Bank resolution through the
 House, &Mr. Otis stated, with the gravity Ol
 d second Munchauscn. that the bank had been
 making attempts to corrupt the public press in the city of New-YOrk. and broadly inti' mated that some ofthe city editors had been bought over to the interest of the Bank . TRe editors of New.York have indignantly rppellpd this wantOn and disgracefuI lihel and have east the lie back upon its polluted
 source. There are some tlignitaries who com
 ceivc in inc plrnituGe of their brief auth0ri-
 ty,' that they have an undonb.ed righ, to heap
 abuse and calunny upon our public editors. Such fellows win not learn {" restrain their impndence until every editors closet Is con verted into dissecting room, and the char acters Of these slanderers of our honorable fraternity exposed in all their naked deformi- ty to public contempt and derisiOn. As for this Mir. Otis. he richly deserves to run the gauntlet of all the printers devils in the good Iy city of Gotham.-Hartford Peview.
 Montevideo, January 27.-Last evening, at five o'clock, was committed in this city, a crime which, considering the circumstances that attended it, has scarcely parallel in the history of the cOuntry. A young lady of respectable connexions was dangerously |. wounded with a poniard. by a young man
 whose name we do not know, while leaving the door of San Pedro to step into carriage
 which was to convey her. with her mother and other ladies of the family, to their coun- try seat. Armed with poniard and two pis- tols. the wretch approached his defsnceless victim, and just as he was going to :nflict the wound, her mother and sister arrested his murderOus ar n 1: yet with the other hand, he drew pistol from his bosom, and discharged 1t at her; 1t fortunately missed her but be. ing now freed from the feeble opposition he had encountered, he advanced towards the object of his vengeance. thrust the dagger in- to her side, and she fell down wounded, he- fore more than fifty spectators, who hehrld the scene without emotion. and remained SO after t had occurred the munster retired among the wd,-there was no officer of police to arrest him, ,-and he remained at lib- l erty quarter of m hour when percciving 1 that he was endeavoring to escape, the people | arrested and secured him.
