THE1SrIRII OF '76-When the news of the
fall Of Ticonderoga reached Exeter, John Lang
dons Whoswas Speaker of the Provincial Legis-
lature of New Hampshire, then in session, Sec
ing the public credit exhausted and his compa-
triots discouraged, rose and said
81 have three thousand dollars in hard money;
will pledge my plate for three thousand more;
| have seventy hogsheads of Tobago rum, which
shall be sold for the most it will bring. These
arc at the service of the State. If we succeed
in defending our fresides and homes, / may be
rcmunerated; if we do not, the property will be
of no value to me- Our old friend Stark, who
so nobly maintained the honor of our State at
Bunker Hill, may safely be entrusted with the
conduct of the enterprise; and we will check
the progress of Burgoyne."s
1t is well known that from this noble offer
sprang that gallant little army of Stark's that
covered itself with glory at Bennington. These
were the deeds that make our history venerable,
and consecrate the revolution.

sHteH HANDED OUTRAGE. ANOTHER INSULT
We conceive it to be our duty to take up with
earnestness every act Of injustice done to Amer-
cans, and we therefore give to the public the fol-
lowing information relative to as gross a viola
ton of property as ever took place under any 60
vernment.
While the Grenadian schooner Henrietta was
on her wayfrom Providence to Kingston last
October, loaded mostly with American property,
she was seized by the Carthagena squadron uG-
der Commodore Rafael Tono off Carthagena.-
The cause assigned for this detention was, that
the port whence she was despatched had thrown
offher allegiance to the Government, although
the vessel was only poor merchant schooner,
carrying on her usual trade between the coast
and Jamaica. This was mere means of max
ing prize, the proceeds of which were of course
to be distributed to the capturing squadron
When the Henrietta arrived, the squadron was
afraid to leave her under the protection of the
walls of the bockaded city during the night, SO
they ordered her away, placing an officer and 30
men on board. A gale dispersed the squadron
OH the next day, and the Henrietta parted COM
pany; and being boarded by boat from Savanil-
la, was carried there, and the cargo disposed of
by the government. In the meantime, the Judge
at Carthagena declared that the Henrietta was
not good prize and therefore the government
that detained hear is now responsible for the loss
of the cargo.
The affair is as simple as possible, neverthe-
less the proper indemnifcation has not yet been
made, although the Consul made the necessary
requisition since the 14th October; not even an
answer has yet been obtained. Had the affair
been British one, perhaps some better attention
would have been displayed, but poor Americans
must submit in that country to be treated upon a
very different footing.
Ought this to be! Ought not something to be
done Immediately in this case! We trust steps
will be taken to teach the Carthagenians that
America is not be insulted with impunity.

ANOTHER SLAVE CAsE-Week before last a
Mr.. Watson, of Virginia, claimed female slave
who had run away from him several years ago,
gone to Philadelphia, where she married and had
since been living-Upon the application of Mr..
Watson a writ was granted for her arrest and
Imprisonment, preparatory to hearing his claim.
Before she was arrested, however, Watson got
an opportunity to seize her himself; he availed
himself ofit placed her in carriage, conveyed
her to Wilmington. Del, thence took the cars
and brought her home. This abduction created
a stir among the Aboltionists-the driver of the
hack which took Watson and the servant from
the Hotel, was arrested and held to bail in the
sum Of $500, to answer the charge of assault
and battery upon the woman; based upon his as
ssting her into his hack.-Raleigh Star.

The latest Hun6ug a.!

The greater the Humbug-ihc greater the success
attending it-such is the popular belief, confirmed
by the success Of tho Gold Humbug-,he Morus
Mutticaulis, and still more by that Of the last Hum
bug, which has put our good city all astir-Anima
Magnetism.
1t is known that Mr. French, from somewhere
down South, has undertaken 10 enlighton our city
upon the mysteries of Mesmerism. We did not
hear his holding forth, nor have we seen any Of tho
wonderful feats, by which he convinees all behold,
es Of his super-human capacities. But we learn
that upon two black subjects, that he brought with
him to town-as susceptible 10 the marvellous in
auenee, he exhibited some strange phenomena, the
other nght-to all who would pay so cents for the
slght-and that numerous Notwithstanding old
and young-men, women and ehildren-not except.
ing many Of the learned Facully-wore made to the
mystic art.
This, although now, for the hn, time brought,
upon this stage, is really too old and bald a Hum.
bug TO be subjected, at this late period, to seriou.
analysis and exposure. This was eTectually done
10 Paris Ivy DE- franklin and four other members or
the Academy Of Sciences, in 177s-and since tha.
day 1t has been utterly repudiated by oil men OF
science. The Humbug had lie origin with a Ger
man quaek, by the name Of mesmer. lie fret I'M
derlook to practice his black art in Vienna-He
was detected as an impos,er there and driven OUT
lie betook himsclfto Paris and in that great city Of
sI stability, he made a considerable noise for a sea-
son-unul the philosophers took him in tow, and
then he exploded. He evaporaled forthwith, un-
Jer an assumed name, md his ort fell into utter dis
repu,e. From time to time, however, il was reviv

THE REMEDLsL JUSTICE BILL.

Another very important act yesterday passed the
House of Representatives being that for giving iu-
risdiction TO tn. Courts Of the United States over all
que lions arising out OF the intercourse between
the United States and foreign nations, so as 10 pre-
vent collisions between the State Governments aud
the General Government on matters which the Con
sutution has placed exclusively within the authori-
~ and scope OF the latter Government. This bill
passed, We were sorry to sec, by a majority less
than We could have de,istd; b 1t happily il has pa,s-
ed, and may be the means OF preventing hereafter
any such difficulties as similar decisions to that oil
the Supreme Cour, o, the State Of New York ii in the
Mcleod case might in the course of time involve
the country IN. This bill, it will be recollected,
has already passed the Senate, and, having received
no amendment in the House Of Representatives
requires only the signature OF the President (by
whom it was recommended TO Congcess) to become
a law.-NAr. INr. Aug. %.

DISTRIBUTION

The bill repeating the 20 per cen, clause in the
Distribution net, passed the House OF Representa-
tives Friday, by a vote Of i0i 10 Sc the Guard and
their Allies warning against it with all their nigh.
These worthless want the Land money to squander
upon useless objects, or to pamper hemselves-in
stead OF letting the States have il to perfect Their
improvemen,s-difuse among their citizens the
Blessing OF universal education and tighten the bur
dens Ct taxation. Left in the Federal treasury, i,
will be wasted. ms i, has heretofore been. or stolen
the duties on foreign importations will no, be di.
minished one iota, and no portion of the country
will derive a particle OF benefit from il. So far
from this, It will be a fund Of corruption, TO feed
worthless federal favori,es, or incite to was,eful
ex'ravagarce in the Government.
The bill will doubtless pass the Senate. And as
1t will, TO suit the delicate stomach Of His Excel
leney, DO unconnec,cd with any other matter, or
rather as 1t will sever two subjects, now connected,
and which ought to be disioined-we may presume
upon the Executive approval-paricularly. as there
will be a Revenue bill by that time, sufficient to
support the Government, economically administered,
without the aid Of this money. The wings, at any
rates, would engage to carry on the Government,
with this Revenue bill, and let the States take the
Land Fund.
