THE SupREmE JUDICIAL CouRr adjour-
ned Saturday noon, to meet again IN this
citv at 2 O'Clock on the third Monday OF
this month, The last week was almost
exclusively occupied in tho trial Of crimi-
nal cases On Saturday the following
sentences we're pronounced by the court

an indictment for entering the counting
roem of Stephen Waterman g. Son, and
stealing four or five dollars in change, in
the night time, was sentenced TO l years
Imprisonment and fine of 500.

verdict OF Jury of stealing a pocket book
containing $50, three months imprison-
ment, and 500 fine. o..
Isaac Westcott, who pleaded guilty to

prlsonment and 500 fine.

We observe that the Legislature have
voted, substantially, that no retrenchment
is necessary in the expenses Of this State.
Ii was but modest in them to come to this
result, since ther own wages amount to
near thousand dollars n day. The ex-
pense ofour Legislature alone, during the
current year, will be more than sufficient
to dsfray the whole costs Of government
for all the other New England States
Every "idle word" that is spoken in our
General Court costs the Commonwealth lth
great deal Of money. In return for oil
this expense, however, we have the satis-
faction OF knowing that our Legislature is
the most Republican body on the face Of
the whole earth, and that Massachusetts
is the most republican State in the Union.

From The Wsw England Farmer.
FARMERS WORK FOR OCTO-
RER

Potatoes. erroneous directions
relative to gathering and securing pota-
toes have been given by agricultural wri-
ters Of high authority. Some advise to
dry them IN the sun, others say the sun
should never shine on Potatoes. Judge
Buel tells us not only that potatoes should
never be exposed 20 sunshine, but should
be housed with all the dirt that adheres to
them and that It is even beneficial to add
more dirt to potatoes m the bin or cask,
to exclude external air as much as possi-
BILE. Their surface should be kept moist,
and the atmosphere as near as can be to
the freezing point.
The Farmers assistant asserts, that
" A planter OF North Carolina lately sent
some potatoes to the West Indies for
market part of which were dried in the
sun, in the usual way, and a part were
laid away in moist or wet sand, as fast as
they were dug and when exhibited for
sale, he obtained three times the amount
per bushel, for those laid in sand, that he
got for the others.-We mention this cir
cumstance in order to observe that such
pota oes as are designed for the table
should be laid away in wet sand, as fast
as they are taken from the earth.
|. The Hon. Oliver Fiske, in en- address
delivered before the Worcester Agricul-
tural Society, Oct. 8, 1928, speaking of
the potato, observes, that 1t seems pro-
bable that the earth, by some unknown
process, perfects it's qualities after it has
attained its growth. That potatoes which
have remained the whole season in the
earth are moro farinaceous and pleasant,
has been observed. A farmer in this
town, who was in the practice Of planting
a large quantity, took his supply from a
spacious field early in the autumn. As
the residue we're intended for stock he
deferred harvesting them till a late and
more convenient period. During their
consumption, his table, by mistake, was
furnished with some which had been des-
tined for the barn. The quality was so
obviously superior as to lead to an inves-
litigation of the cause. From that time
the two parcels received an exchange of
destination. Another fact, illustrative of
this position, was stated to me by an en-
inent farmer in the vicinity Of Boston. A
distinguished agriculturallst from Scot
land, who had dined at the best table in
the city and its neigh6orhood, remarked,
at the hospitable board Of my informant
that he had not seen in this country, what
in Scotland would be considered a good
potato. He imputed the difference to the
different mode Of cultivation. There they
plant early and Dig late"

JUDGE LYNCH IN PETTrcoAr.--The
Bangor Maine) Advertiser tells a story
of man in that vicinity who had for some
time past been paying his addresses, to
girl in the same neighborhood for
some cause or other, the swain determln-
ed to withdraw, and penned billet inti-
mating to the lady that he was no longer
to be considered among the number of
her admirers. This epistle he confided
to the care ofhis sister, who ignorant Of
its contents, psescnted it in person. A
family council was immediately called,
and the luckless girl was condemned
to suffer instanter, the penalty braving
the enraged beauty. II is said that the
mother and daughter whipt or frightened
the unoffending girl until she tainted, and
was conveyed senseless into the house Of
q neighbor.

TIE French INDEMNITY. A cores
pondent of the New York Courier and
Enquirer at Washington, predicts that the
message Of the President of the United
States at the assembling of Congress, will
be any thing but Rattering to the insulted
dignity Of France, and in no wise Of a
pacific nature. Although we have un-
bounded confidence in our correspondent,
says the Courier, we doubted the correct
ness Of his information on this head, and
still hope he may be in error an article
in the Globe Of Tuesday very plainly in
Inmates that in the estimation Of that pa
per our difficulties with France are not
yet arranged. We look upon this intima-
ton, as being made by authority, and un-
der the circumstances, feel authorised in
calling upon the editor to be more spe-
cific in relation to the position of our af-
fairs with France. Ii is question in
which the mercantile interests Of the coun-
try are deeply concerned, and the people
have a right to know whether by the Ad-
ministration it is considered arranged, or
whether there are still difficulties in the
way Of an adjustment! which may produce
a rupture between the two countries. -

iCPWe have the most cheering intelligence
from our Constitutional friends in the west part OF
this State. The result Of the late eleptieu, and the
political manoeuvres Of some Of the leaders Of the
Van Buren, and Wing party. has removed the
scales from their eyes, and enabled them 10 look
at the measures proposed to be adopted by the
Constitutional party in its true light. Our enc
mes-and they alone-talk about free scffrage,
New York suffrage as they call it. Now the fact
is the Constitutional party ask for no ssch thing
as the published proceedings Of their Convention
will show. A great noise is also made about lille
gal votes, admitting foreigners to vote, &c, who
have JUS, landed. This is all held out by helpol
ilcans Of the two great parties as scare crows to
deceive the homes, yeonanry Of the State. The
friends Of reform, almost to man. are as much
opposed to admitting foreingers to the right Of suf-
frage, as are any ofrhs opponents to our cause
The resolves passed by the Convention are so
plain that it 10 unnecessary to comment farther on
this part of the subject. As to the illegal votes,
we should like 10 know how many are now poled
in this State. How many nre there who receive
their qualification the day before and part with il
