The Bishop then came in with b"Ih sacraments, all of US pros- trating as he passed. Aftee putting the tab. ernacle upon the little altar which had been placed there f0r that purpose, he read from a book great many prayers, all of US respon- ding.

 From the Richmond Whig we take the fol- lowing statement:
 Judge White and tte President.-We learn authenticaIly from Washingtoo. that the Pres ident sought an interview with Judge White, previously to the latter's leaving for Tennes- see, in order, as is c0niectured from the tenor of what passed between them. to come .tO a quarrel with the Judge! Hepemonstrated at the Judge's cQnseniing tG beeOme d candidate for the Presidency. as calculated ta divide the Republican party, tthe power rnongrrs are now so called, iO such prostitution has the word come) and to expose 1t tp defrat. The Judge replied with all courtesy, but all frm- ~sss tos,- that sas he had no hand in putting himself in the position, so he should have none in withdrawing from it. That it was the act of the people, not his, and he neither ever had or would have, any thing to do in inc matter. The President is said tO have manifested much asperity and ilI-humor. evidently wishing t6 bring matters to a rupture. Judge White preserved throughout the interview iavinci- b;e good temper and courtesy.
 No doubt the Kitchen put the Hero up to the game. They wish to force Judge White ouf of the Jackson ranks, and to make him do to injure himself with that portion of the Jackson: party that sustain his election. Tb~ 4pdGe -Drahahix" s-aRs a th~ Ha "e -a.,iia
 Attempted Mwder.-We learn from various sources. that murder was committed, or at- tempted tO he committed, on Monday eve. ming last. on the person of Mr. John Sayre, of Long Hill, Morris cOunty. while he was sit- ting with his wif. by his own freside. Two brass balls. which were discharged through a window from the outside of the house, enter ed his cheek and came opt on the opposite side Mrs. Sayre, in state of dreadful alarm, be. ing the only person in the house beside her husband. ran tO neighbours for assistance. When they returned they found him alive, and n physician being sent for. his situation was pronounced to be extremely critical. but we have not yet heard of his death. Suspicion very soon 6xed on his brother Anthony s. Sayre. of Springfield. in this county, as the perpetratOr of the hOrrid deed. It is tsrther stated that Anthony s. Sayre had left his house and was not to be found Diligent search was then made, and he was finally dis covered hid among the ,ocks on the moun- tain. He was subsequently, taken tO Morris. town. examined and committed tn Jail. where he now remains. in the sa,ne room f;nrmerly occupied by Le Blanc, the murderer ofa fam. fly of the same name.
 Ihe Ndrigation.-Ali is hustle and activity in our Basin aud ainng the Docks.
