We have heard different statements al

fair that however which seems 10 be en-
titled TO most credit. 10, that the Deputy

BY . company Of soldiers, for the purpose
Of removing him out or the Nation. Alter
some arrangements had been made 40 10
the time Of his leaving. the Soliiers having
gone on. some. difficulty arose between
Owens and the Marshal. mon which the

and ordered them back. with orders 10 ar.

entirely correct account ofthe affair at this
siage or H.

Them; but the most generally received
statement. IL. that upon their approaching
him, be drew pistol and snapped several
times ~ the soldiers-oue Of them ob.erv.
ed To him that he had no cap on bis pistol:
no drew out OF his pocket q can, and fired

Sir-i cannot express to you by words,
the great qualification have experienced
in observing the impartial, able and feor.
less manner you have exposed the CON.
duct Of those who would screen the
murderer Of Miss Cornell.
The interference in laws of Justice BY
religious bodies are dangerous in the ex-
treme and must be put down or there
soon will be an end to the great blessing
we enjoy under our free institutions.
That many of our presses have been
deaf to the cries of justice, is most true
thank God however proper Spirit is
awakening that will, l trust, be the
means of saving us from all the horrors
of clerical combinations.
That Avery is the murderer of Miss
Cornell is fully established by the evil
dence, and could wish the Jury (whose
views Of the case have been 90 much
misrepresented in other States,) would
under their signatures state their views,
and put it out of tle:pover of the Meth.
odists to say that they had no doubt of
his entire innocence.
1t is stated you intend erecting a
Statue OF Avery in cast iron-ifso, will
subscribe s5, and many others in this
city would follow my example If per-
son authorized to obtain subscriptions
would visit us.
lfyou will acknowledge this communi-
cation will Immediately remit you my

The mails and closing the post Offices on
Sundays--of running pioneer lines Of
stages-and crying out "infidcl,ty" sim
fidelity" against all pure Christians who
would not join in the attempts ; the same
dark demon Of fanaticism had almost
succeeded in stripping the country of its
liberty and its happiness.
This spirit is again busy--but appears
to have Of late acquired some worldly
prudence--it n,w conducts its opera
lions by de.nil. If man doubts the in
nocence of Parson Avery, or believes
TINT he had something more to do with
Sarah nj. Cornell than eating bread and
butter-fanaticism rises up--shakes her
snaky curls, and denounces him ns an
"infdel." If person after reading the
confession of Clough-a confession
which shows him to have been an un-
mitigated villain up to the three last days
of his life-doubts the propriety Of any
Bishops saying that such person went
