Mr.. Snowden:-There are Of large family,
in whose welfare you are interested, two mem.
bers, who have been much nisuscd, by some of
your correspondents, and many other respecta.
BILE newspaper. writer's. Whilst this misusage
proceeded from mere scribbers, they were not
disposed to complain. Being eonstitutionaly
inactius, they bore the abuse until literally fore.
ed into active life. This oppression, too, is the
more provoking, as there are two other members
Of the same family whose particular province,
and pleasure too. it is, to perform, when called
on, the very services into which the first have
been forced.
Will you have the kindness to suggest to
correspondents the Propriety Of holding con.
vention, (for that is now the way to settle az
fairs,) to take this matter into consideration Let
it be determined how far the two members first
alluded to-Sh, and-Lie, shall be driven
from their proper place Of rest, to perform the
aciiue services, which should be the Office Of the
other two members and Lay.

subjects. It may not affect his standing for just
discrimination, inasmuch as the public will be

will, at once, be set down, BY those sitting in

we're also nominated, and the Senate rejected

REV. E. K. AVERY.
NEWPORT, r. |. MARCH 8. 1853.

The Grand Jury having been for two days past
engaged in hearing testimony, this morning about
II o'clock, found true bill against the Rev f.
K. Avery, for the murder Of Sarah NJ. Cornell.
The prisoner was brought into court-the indict-
ment read to him. and on the clerks putting the
question. .are you guilty or not gutys' he replied
firmly, (" not guilty." The department Of Mr..
A. whilst in court, was 6rm and manly; not the
least weakness or emotion was perceptble, and
the impression seems to have been generally pro.
duced, that he is either an innocent man. or that,
innocent or guilty, he possesses degree OF forti.
tude and self control, which few can boast oil. -
The counsel for the prisoner having intmated
that week. at least, would be consumed in the
trial. the court observed that there was no time at
their disposal when the trial could take place
sooner than the first Monday in May next, and
that they would cheerfully assign an earlier peri
cd for that purpose, if their public duties and en-.
gagements elsewhere would permit.

Protruding its CHASTITY cOuntenance around our

fact that the martial character Of Andrew Jack
