In the last fire gears. during which no ececu-

been condemned to death, was committed to imDris-

OF capital punishments was attended with

offences, and particularly that of murder,

LECTUR ES.

We are happy to state that at a re-
cent meeting Of the Mechanics As
sociation in this place, Ga Society now
numbering something like hundred OF
our most respectable and enterprising
Mechanics) Committee was appointed
for the purpose of making the requisite
arrangements to procure Lecturers,
and establishing regular course OF
Lectures before the Society, without
delay. 1t is to be hoped that the Com
mttee will faithfully perform tho duty
entrusted to them.
From the Providence Courier OF
Tuesday, we perceive that the inhabi-
tanis of even the little Village ofKings-
ton have made a move on this important
subject, as will be seen by the following
LYCEUM.
| We learn that meeting of the inhabitants
Of Kingston Village was held on Tuesday
evening, January land they unanimously
agreed to establish Lyceum, for the pur-
pose of having lectures delivered on literary
and scientific subjects. At a subsequcn,
meeting, Constitution was adopted, and the
| Lyceum is now organized.
| Such institutions are well adapted to doing
a great deal of good by diffiising information,
exciting curiosity, and creating a tasto for
reading among our citizens. AS Kingston il
near the Railroad, and the attendance OF
lecturers from abroad can be easily procured,
we have no doubt that the institution will
prove highly useful.
