tangent, hssessing hts rights with the utmost
 wildnrss and Irnacity. When the doctor ask
 ed him the name he would take if he ascend ed the IhrOnr, he replied Richard the F0urth,'' and stated that he had taken great delight in attending the theatre. whenever there wasa performance oi Richard the Third, because he always felt great pleasure in wit nessing the deeds 0f his ancestors.
 He was then asked how he could make out any ciaiurs on this country, seeing that by the reV0luih,n Of l778 and the treaty Ofl7GS, the United States had been separated from Great Britain. His reply was that his family had. .nolhing to dO with that arrangement, and, having given nO sanction tO the acts Or sepa. ration, could not be bound hy them. He re. garded his rights, as relates tO this country, us being as perfect now us before the rev0lu- Giu2, and said that when he obtained posses sion of the crown of England, all these things would be set right. As to ihe idea Of trying hiM (Or aUy alledgrd niIrnee, he seems to treat it as an ahsurClity, md declares that he shall UMly laugh ut the C"Nrt. if he shall be brought Np before tt. He iniiMairs it tW be his pmr- pOse to proceed tO England this summer for the purpose of asserting his claims. The tri. al will excite considerable interest, and there can be nO doubt that the fact of his insanity will hc placed hrfore the jury in such strong light as tO be irresistible.
 ! have not heard that there has been my ac,i"n ofthr grand jury against Goldman, F"y, Or Stewart, although 1t has been. and still Is expected. There appears iO havn been a legal "hjrcli"n started by some members Of our har, which may have had s"nre inftarncr in preventing this action hitherto, "n the ground that charge "f perjury cann"i be founded "n any pr0credings hrf"re Com. miit~r of Congress, such C"mmitt-e not be- ing within the meaning "fthe law, in drscrih. ing the authorities competent to administer an oath. There is believed. however. tO be no just ground for this objection, and if the grand jury should find no other difficulty to sur mount, the parties may after all be made the subjects of fa criminal indictment.
 l do not know that there is any thing else of moment stirring amongst us. There is no douht that Amos Kendall is to take into his hands the administration of the General Post Office in the course of a frw weeks, probably ah"ut the first of May. The reforms conten1- plated hy him, will entirely destroy what lit. tie confidence in the department yet remains tD he iinSuished.-Netcark Ado.
 ResurrectiOnisis Hereabouts. s..-Nntwi ithstanCl- ing the b"ilup-aw" has been repealed. it seems that some evil disposed persons a,r de. irrmined not tO be deprived of iheir right to the body ofa poor man, even after it Is drpus- iied in the silent tomb. In our last we nOti- ced that the body of q man by the name of Thomas Benedict, was found dead in the sub. urhs of :his village the Sunday previous. Az ter an inquest, his remains were inferred in the north burying ground. On Thursday mOrning there were some indications that all WAS not as it should be, which led some of oMr citizens to open the grave. when their suspicious proved not to be groundlrss. The grave had been opened and the bOdy remov. ed. the perpetrators carefully replacing every thing as they found it. as near us possihle.-- The authority forthwith convened d court of inquiry, but nO evidence was advanced to fix suspicion on any one. and the cannibaIs have sU Esr escaped sls~ punishment which our laws SD justly yihflict.-Dunbury Gaz.
 Wiid Animals.-The forests of this State still abound in numerous species Of wild an. mals, such as the Moose, Deer, Carib"u.

The Lunkasuose the Orlh"graphy of the word is arbiirary) is an animal of " hich we have only heard recently; but tradition says. that a frrOriOus animal, Of huge size, and with mane like a lion. has actually been seen tN come tO the horders of the river. and the umhermen say ilrat they have heard him in the woods. roaring must lusiily. The ln, dians, too, talk about the LuDkasoOse,' and they are conclusive authority in such matters. A few days since two large Moose were seen quietly travelling iD the road near Orooo-- they occasionally Irit the track far the w""ds. hut the great depth af ihe snow soon forced them hack again. We believe they were pur. sued and caught.
 The Deer. which are plentiful in this re. zion. s,s,Ially herd together. A short time since some IumbermeU came upon a "yard" nine of these poor fellUws-whOse fleeiness is Of nO use tO them when there are iOnr Or Eve feet Of snow upon the grOuRd-- when discorered. they .pl"ughed away ;he snow immediately about them. and prepared to defend themselves with the utmost desper.

 Disirssing and Fatal Accident.--Never have we been called upon to record so shock at Woodstock, the details of which will be found heart. rrnding and painful in the px- tremc. It appears that Mr. and Mrs. Marcy set ont on joW ney on Tuesday of last week. expecting to h~ absent from hOme bat a few days, and leaving the house, SLc. in the charge of their daughter, Nancy Ann Marcy, aged ahout ae. On the following Thursday, tw" days after, the ifelsss body of this young la dy was acNidenily discNve cred near the s' wood rsile" short distance from tho house. From appearances in the house and near the spot whrre she was fnund, it is supposed that on
