entertained by many Of the Voters OF the county,
that DR. L. could he elected induced him TO

prospects are at least equal to those OF his worthy
competitors aud trust that NJ Voter favornbly dis.

probability OF defeat His talents, accurate know

LORD AsHBURToN.--The are a few
papers IN the United States, land II is a
SHINE that there is one,) which seek TO
emharrass tho friendly overtures Of the
British Government in sending Lord Ash
burton 10 this country and for want OF
better grounds of complaint, they essal
the character of Lord Ashburton himself.
Among other things, they have ,rumpeted
the fact that true bill had been found
against him at the Old Bailey. On this
point, our London spondent writes !:
-" The true bill found agains, him at
the Old Bailey, for n conspiracy in brib-
ing certain Mexican legislators TO deprive
an Englisbman Of the power and privilege
OF possessing lands in that country, 10
deemed a most maleyolent proceeding. -
1t is true Grand Jury have found bill,
but the presiding Judge, the Recorder Of
London, the Hon. Mr.. Inv, expressed
his opinion at once, the momen, the find
ing on the bill was read, that the Court
has no cogn'zance of the matter" ~.

there any person on the premises except
his negroes-27 in number. A jury OF
inquest was summoned, and the manner
in which the deceased came to his death
settled after which portion Of the ju.
ry took charge of his effects. They got
his keys, and upon opening the frs, trunk
found his will, written six days previous,
by which two of the jury then presen,
were appointed his executors, {one oil
whom is the friend who communicates
the iniellgence.) They also found in the
same trunk Ten thousand dollars 10 gold
and silver. The purport of the will was
that his negro should be freed, and all Of
his personal affects, together with the
cash on hand, divided amongst them.
The MONEY was deposited in one of banks
at Athens for safe.keeping, and the ex-

eating any at,emp, a, action by divided

should be torn into strips before putting

cover oil the burnt part. No other APP
picaton is required until tho patient 10
