food for 70 families, who had not tasted
meat before for months. AT Manchesi-
,er, NJ fewer than 1000 persons were
subsisting upon lad per week. Similar
details from Ireland are too horrible to
be repeated. Human beings were there
subsisting upon diet (sowens) which in
England would only bs used as hogs
wash. Even the swine elsewhere
live luxuriously, and horses dogs
fare like princes, compared 70 these
poor wretohes. To the agricultural la
borers Of England even, beef or mutton,
as articles Of food are almost unknown ;
pork is the only kind ofanimal food they
get--and generally but little of that--fsr
the high prce ofbread takes up the whole
of their miserable pittance for that neces-
sary article alone. This class Of persons
amounts TO 100000.
"Much had been said," added Mr.. vii.

ed upon to pay taxes for the mainten-
ancs of our colonies, while hundreds OF
thousands in time of profound peace,

Sherman, of Somerset co., Md, a gen
ileman who had for many years been a
paralytic, was recently suddenly restored
TO health. He had become so low that
his life was dispaired of. During rec
ent thunder storm he fella sleep, and to
his ntter amaSement, found, when he a.
woke, that he had the entire use Of his
limbs. He arose from bis bed, dressed
himself, and walked about the house, Mr..
s. remembers to have experienced pc
culiar sensation in his whole system dur
ing his sleep, and from all the circum-
stances, no other conclusion can be arriv-
ed at, but that the agent Of this wonder

THE GREEN MOUNTAIN BOY

BY Z. DOW.
Ho. give me my fathers silent gun
Baptized in the blood of Lexington;
And over my youthful bosom fling
His powder horn with its crimson string
And spread around me his blanket warm,
That Imay battle the winters storm.
So bless me, mother, with tears of joy,
For am a wild Green Mountain boy.
The hills that smile in the morning beam,
And echo the eagles mstin scream:
The shady rivers thu bowl along
Like the gusty tide Of drinking song:
The pensive vale, and the laughing lea,
That came through the Revolution free;
They wait to echo my shout of joy,
For am a wild Green Mountsin bsy.
Oh tell me not that The South forget
The breast that leapedto the boyOnet,
Whsn Eutaw?mingled her fountains flood
With the crimson tide Of New England blood,
And the soldier drooped'mid the tangled vines
And found grave in the Caroines;
Oh, she'll receive me with shouts Ofjoy,
For am wild Green Mountain boy.
NV grandsire stood with his mountanserS,
By the SUM wales of the cavaliers,
And gathered amid the sylvan glen,
To the loud halluo of Marion's men,
And listen'd to Sumptel's rifles ring,
And batae ID his temples in JaSper'S springi
The rafting bullets he heard with joy,
For he was a wild Green Mountsin boy.
Ho! ys who boast meath Southern sun,
Have ye a greater than Bennington?
Or sleep your atherS in glory now
Above the dead upon Bunker's brow?
Your martial spirits,in days gone by,
Knew how the men of the North could die;
And the hau ghtitst suesr cannot destroy
The fame of ths wild Gre en- Mountain boy
NV heart in its morning dream nspires
To reach the face Ofthy mountain Sirss,
To spring TO the battles signal note,
And bid ths flag of their 81 lory aoat;
And IwouJd haste from the mountain glen
To Join the hildren of blarion's men;
And lond the valleys should peal my joy,
For am wild Green Mountain boy.

GEORGETOWN, o, TUEsDAY JULY 6, ls41.

Whether in this case, the Governor Of
New YorklhaSe that power, or, if he have
whether he would feel it his duty to exer-
else it, are points upon which we are not
Informed.
1t is UNDERSTOOD that Mr.. Mcleod is
holden alsoon civil process, sued out
against him by the owner Of theCaroline.
We suppose it very clear that the Execu-
tive Of State cannot interfere with such
process ;and indeed, if such process were
pending in the courts Of the UnitedStales
the President could not arrest it. In such,
and many analogue cases, the party pros
ecuted or sued, must avail himself of his
exemption or defence by Judicial proceed
Ings, either IN the court into which he is
called, or ID some other court. But
whether the process be criminal or civil
the fact-of having acted under public au-
thority, and in obedience to the orders
of lawful superiors, must be regarded as
a valid defence, otherwise individuals
would be holden responsible for injuries
resulting from the acts Of Government
and even from tho operations of public
war.
You will be furnished with copy of
this instruction for the use oftbe EXecu-
tive of New York, and the Attorney
General ofthe State. You will carry
with you, also, authentic evidence of the
recognition, by :he British Government,
Of the destruction of the Caroline, as an
act of public force, done by narionol au-
thority.
The President is impressed with the
propriety of transferring the trial from the
scene of the principal excitement, to
some other and distant country. You will
take care that this be suggested TO the
prisoners counsel. The President is
gratifed to learn that the Governor of
New York has already directed that the
trial take place before theChiefJustice OF
the State.
Having consulted with the Goveronr,
you will proceed TO Lockport, or where
ever else the trial may be holden, and
furnish the prisoners counsel with the eV-
idence OF which you will be in possession
material to his defence. You will see
that he have skillful and eminent coun
sci, if such be not already attained,
aad, although you are not desired to act
as counsel yourself, you will cause it to
be sign6ed to him, Land TO the gentlemen
who may conduct his defence, that it is
the wish of this Government that, in case
his defence be overruled by the court in
which he shall be tried, proper steps be
taken Immediately for removing the
cause, by writ Of error, 10 the Supreme
Court of the United States.
The President hopes you will use such
despatch as to make your arrival at the
place of trial sure before the trial comes
on; and he trusts you will keep him in
formed Of whatever occurs by means OF a
correspondence through this Depart
ment.
