Norl TIiai-The last Huntsville

trial OF negro girl, IL years Of age,

ing Ut. There was no evidence against
her except her own confessions, which
were, that the child became cross and
scratched her, and she determined TO
drown it-that she went 10 creek
near at hand and cast il into the water
after she had thrown il in, the child
held up its hands for help, whereupon
she became sorry for what she had done.
and attempted to rescue it,but in vain.
II appeared by ample testimony, that
the girl was not only destitute Of aoy
notion Of human laws, but of a God.
and future rewards and punishments
and upon the ground of want Of
moral Accountability, the jury acquitted
her. Being asked ii she knew she had
done wrong? she replied in the affirm
ativs-but upon being asked what pun
ishmeat she expected to receive she
said she did not know, but supposed her
mistress would whip her.

Official Returns. - We present our resaers
with the official account Of the returns Of votes
for menbers of Congress in this State, as eyami-
ned by the Governor and Council. Three Dis.
tricts have flied to elect their several candidates
The result in this District and The third, have
long been known. The failure in the 9th has
been pretty well ascertained for several DAYS -
La the third, the abortive election is owing to the
dissentons which have long existed there In
the ninth and in Boston, the failure ~ elect the
National Republican Candidates, has been owing
to the general apathy of the voters. In the ninth
District only 1857 votes were polled. and Gen.
Dearborn. although more than 500syotes ahead
of any ether candidate, wants 100 of majority
Of the whole. Last November. 5000 votes
were cast in Norf"lk District. This shows a
shameful neglect Of voters. Had proper efforts
been made, 1000 more National Republican
votes might have been taken. So in Boston Dis.
trict By similar exeriiuns and proper spirit
of excitement, tom 1000 to 1000 more votes
might have been cast in this city. The next trial is
assigned for The Orb of Nav, and we trust that
sufficient cfir's will be made to elect the Ma.
tional Republican candidates by triumphant
majorties.
