RHODE lsLAND.-Twenty-tw more of the pris-
oners were discharged on Wednesday.
1t is curious fact that many of the prisoners.
on their examination, ascribed their participation
IN the rebellion to the influence Of 1.-THE women"
WIN whom, they said, Dorr was "a great favor
lte. For instance, Samuel Greene made this
declarations
Went into the cause because some ladies' were
going; thought there was no danger where the
ladies were; heard many Of them were ready to
fight for Dorr. He seemed TO be a great fayorite
with them.
WIN. +. Mason, aged lS, said
Should not have gone to Chepaclet had not the
women persuaded me to do SO there was one in
particular did not dare refuse; she was NV
sweetheart; threatened TO give me the mitten if /
did not 90.
Clark Smith, of Albion Village -
MOST OF tie women in our village are in favor
OF Dorr; some talked Of putting on pantaloons
and going to his aid; they had a good deal of In
'uence with the men; kept up continual talk
ing; should pity the man who remained at home
among them. Should rather remain in prison
than to contend with them myself. Went to the
camp TO make show; made poor show: in
case oil actual battle meant to sneak off myself
Almond Smith, also Of Albion Village, son of
the last
is years; works In mill went to Chepachet ;
was advised TO go by Sarah and the rest of the
girls; hated TO hang back for fear they would
laugh at me; mother knew was out; she let ME
go because wanted to; expected to be made a
hero of; was made prisoner Of; searched ulorv:
couldn't find any; don't think should have
piucked up and gone to the camp, had it not been
for the gals; they made me feel gritty.
And so with many others. Women are said
to love the brave, and these ''girs' that the prs-
oners speak of were no doubt captivated by the
lip valor SO proiusely displayed by the pseudo
Governor. Their feelings changed, probably,
when they found that his Excellcncy's yalor wa s
not of the lasting quality--did not wear well, as
they say of ginghdn and calico.-N. Y. Com.

In the early part of the Session, Mr.. Tyler
sent TO the Senate the nomination of Harvey Berch,
for Receiver of Public Monies at Fayette Mo-,
which was rejected. More recently the Captain
sent in the same nomination, and the Senate gave
him second Veto AS soon as the Senate ad.
journs, the Captain will doubtless commission
him,

IMPEACHMENT OF THE PRESIDENT.
The Petersburg Intelligencer says: That John
Tyler is utterly unfit to fill the office of Chief
Magistrate of this Republic, will be admitted by a
large majority Of the people of the United States,
and by no with more readiness than our
selves.
We regard him as weak, vain, treacherous and
inordinately ambitious, and we should consider
his removal from office as one of the greatest
blessings which could befall the country. But
in spite of these opinions we cannot help regard
ing Mr.. Bolts threat to impeach the President as
very impolitic, and for the simple reason that it
is threat Which cannot be erecuted, and which
(if an attempt be made to execute it) will only
enable poor thing at which it is aimed, to raise
the "cry of persecution" and obtain that from the
pity Of mankind which he despairs of getting from
their justice.
Gj-The National Intelligencer states that the
idea of lmpeaching the President is not seriously
entertained by the majority in Congress and Mr..
Bolts has declared that he acts upon his own res
possibility, without concert or consultation with
any one.

the law OF nations and the faith of treaties; and

justice which accompanies her, and which she
