Aftesnpt t. Poison.-A black girl, sixteen years
of age, named Mary Ann Sims, was yesterday COM
mitted to prison under the following circumstan-
ces -
1t appears that on the 10th Of November last she
was placed as an indened apprentice in the family
of Mr. BENJAMIN r. ThealI, of No. l6 Mercer street.
Up to the 4th of July last her conduct had been ex-
ceedngy good but on the afternoon OF that day she
was permitted to have holiday, and instead OF re-
turning to her masters house at the time promised
remained away all night; and during that period,
as Mr.. Theal! was informed, had acted very imPru-
IDENTIFY in company with man named Samuel Jack
son and number of other low blacks, (men and
woman,) into whose company she got.
For this gross misbchavior, Mr.. Theall tied her
IN and pretended that he about to fog her, for
the purpose of inducing her to confess the offence
imputed to her. She admitted the charge made
against her. and after receiving two or three stripes,
was released from her letters. All passed off well
till dinner time when Mr.. Theall's family iancied
they discovered "a curious taste in the soup. The
Girl was spoken to, when she admitted having mix
ed with some sugar of lead, small quantity OF
which she had purchased at a store in Broadway,
as she said at the instance of an infamous coloured
woman named Sarah Robinson, who had formerly
lived with Mr. Thea and who had endeayored to
persuade her to leave her employer and accompany
her to New Rochelle. Mary said that on obJcctlng
to quit Mr.. Theall because she was bound to hlm

and thus obtain her liberty. She further said tina

appalling Sight.-Yeserday morning the dead
bodies.of two men, one named Markette, the keeper
of a confectionery in the Arcade, and the other a
man whom he had hired, short time ago, as an
assistant were found in their room shockngiy
muated and pierced in severa! places, by dirk
and a knife which were found near them covered with
blood.
1t appears that for some days previous they had
been heard quarreling, and is supposed their dis
putc ended in the bloody conflict which terminated
both their lives 1t is evident, however, that no
third person implicated in this horrd affair
Both the deceased slept in one ROOM Three hun
dred and fifteen dollars in notes, fourteen dollars IN
silver and check for thirty three dollars and seven
ty-ivc cents found in the pockets of Markettes
clothes, who from his being found naked, must have
retired to bed before the aflray commenced.
One Of the deceased, the assistant, was partly
dressed when found; and il is suspected by some
that he first assaed Markctte with intention of
robbng him, but found him prepared to sell his life
dearly. 1t is however probable that the quar-
rel originated in the manner we first mentioned, as
some bottles of cordals out of which they had been
drinking, were found upon table in another room.
We are informed that two Hoatboat men were
murdered on the Levee, on Saturday night-This
is additional evidence of the necessity of esab-
fishing well organized police.

be the perfection of Government; for the true voice
OF the people, is the voice of God; and that voice
would lead to the greatest happiness of the greatest
numbers for all men when enlightened, if left to
themselves, will follow their best interest.
The means of obtaining this unadulterated voice
of the people, in The city, well as the country, is
simply to cevise efeetual mode of casting the
votes, SO secretly, that man shall know how his
neighbor, his journeyman, or his servant has vo-
ted. When the interested and fraudulent tyrant
finds that he has means of knowing, whether his
bribe or his threat, has forced his unfortunate de-
pendant to vote according to his employers interest,
and against his own judgment and his own interest
too; then will all such bad citizens tamper
with the sacred rights, on which our union, and our
future happiness depend.
This is the remedy, and the only one possible !:

Death from the Bite Of Snake.-We are in
formed that few days since, daughter, ot Mr.
George w. Norven, who lives upon Edsto river,
about twenty miles from this place, was bitten on
the wrist by very large rattlesnake, which caused
her death in few hours. She was on her way TO
school and the children who were in company with
her at the time, saws that she stopped with them TO
pick blackberres growing by the road side,
when being thus engaged for a few minutes, she
screamed out that snake bit her. She was almost
immediately taken home to her agonizcd parents,
and an express sent for a physician but before he
could arrive the unfortunate little sufferer expired.

The following beautiful passage, as true as
it is beautiful, is from Mr. James last novel,
The Gipsy'
Round the idea of ones mother, the mind
Of a man clings with a fond affection. 1t is
the first deep thought stamped upon our infant
hearts, when yet soft and capable of receiving
the mort profound Impressions; all the after
feelings Of the world are more or less light in
comparison. do not know that even in our
old age we do not look back to that feeling as
the sweetest we have through life Our pas
sions and our wilfulness may lead us far from
the object Of our filia love; we learn even to
pain her heart, to oppose her wishes, to vio-
late her commands; we may become wild,
headstrong, and angry at her counsels or op-
position; but when death has stilled her mon-
itory voice, and nothing but calm memory
remains to recaptulate her virtues and good
deeds, affection, like a flower beaten to the
ground by past storm, rises up her head and
smiles amongst her tears. Round that idea,
as we have said, the mind clings with fond
affection; and even when the earlier period of
our loss forces memory TO be silent, fancy
takes place Of our dead parent with garland
Of graces, and beauties, and virtues, which we
doubt not that she possessed
