REMARKABLE CASE or CIRCUM-
STANTIAL EVIDENCE.

AT the surry ENG. Sessions recently
Mr.. Charnock, who Vas engaged to de-.
fend a prisoner, the evidences for the pro,
secutfon resting entirely on cIrcumsta ntiaI
evldence,) cited tie following remarkable
case:
On the Northern Circuit, a few years
ago, a respectable farmer was indit dior the
wllful murder of his niece, TO whom he
was left executor and GUARDIAN 4 seri-
GUS quarrel took place between the JUNGLE
and his ward, and The former was heard to
say that his niece would never live TO en-
Joy her property, although she wanted but
d short period ofbecomlng Of age.-Short-
ly after this declaration and quarrel, the
niece was suddenly missed, and nobody
knew what had become of her. Rumors
were quickly spread to the disadvantage OF
the farmer, until it was at length publicly
reported that be had murdered his niece
for the sake of possessing himself Of her
property, and that he had concealed the
body on his being a~pprehended on acharge
murder, various spots Of blood were found
on his clothes, those being the garments he
was in the habit of wearing. Appearan.
ces went So much against the prisoner
that he was committed for trial. At tbs
assizes, application was made to The Judge
to postpone the case, on The ground that
public Indignation was so generally excl
ted against the prisoner that he could no
gosafely to trial, and an affidavit was pdi
In,that if time was granted, there was nj
doubt the niece would be produced, ~in'court
and that the prisoner was entirely limo
cent of the murder. The application wa
successful, and in the interim the mos
strenuous eze-tions were made on behal
of the prisoner and his friends to find In
niece, but all to no purpose, and the scare

A wInOW'S CHARGE AT HER

nv mRs. l.. II. sfeouHNHr.

BY MRS. l.. II. sfGoUHNET.
Deal gently. thou, whose hand hath won
The young bird from the nest away,
Where careless meath d vernal sun
She gayly carolled day by day;
The haunt is lone-the heart must grieve,
From whence her timid wing doth soar,
The ~pensive liet, at hush of eve,
Yet hear her gushing song no more.
Deal gently with her--thou art dear,
beyond what vestal lips have told
And, like a lamp from fountains clear,
= She turns eonfiding 10 thy fold
She, round thy sweet domestic bower
The wreaths Of ~changeless love shall twiie,
Watch for thy step at vesper hour.
And blend the hottest prayer with thine.
Deal gently, thou, when far away,
mid stranger scenes her foot shall rove,
Nor let thy tender Cares decay
The soul Of woman lives on love.
Aud sheuld'st thou, wondering, mark a tear
Unconscious from her eyelid break, @
be pitiful, ard Hothe the fear
That mans strong heart can ne'er partake
A mother yields her gem to thee,
On thy true breast to sparkle rala-~
She places meath thy household tree,
The idol Of her fondest care
And by thy trust 10 be forgiven .
When Judgment wakes IN terror wild,
by all the treasured hopes Of heaven,
Deal gently with the widows child.

Upon a whisRey cask.

Almost too faint to jog,
And he searched In vain, TO find a dime
To buy a little grog.

His purse was rather dry
So he turned aside to hide the tear,
That gathered in his eye.
He passed out from The grocery,
The rain was falling fast
His old umbrella had gin out
That one he cabbaged last.
IliH ahocs were open at the toes,

Was only meant for him.
A woman passed him with some bread,
He left his hnngertwiteh,

He tumbled in the ditch.
And there he lay that noble wreck,

To wallow IN the mud.

LETTER FROM Mn. Cray.

LETTER FROM Mn, Cray.
In the Chambersburgh Wing Of Thursday,
we find a letter, eloquent and strong, from
the aChambersburgh Clay Club" to the
Hon. Henry Clay, with his letter in reply.
The Committee introduce with the following
passage. a graphic sketch of the progress Of
misrule in the country for a long period past /:
Why is il, sir, that with a Constitution
Of Government so admirably adapted to hu-
man welfare-with resources so multiplied
and acknowledgements SO vigorous
means Of intercourse so rapid and comraodi-
Gus, and literature SO cheap and abundant, we
are not now, as formerly, a prosperous and
happy ~nation--proud of our retrospect, and
exhibiting in the promise of the fnture9 Why
is It that all the great branches Of our nation
al industry are in a state of prostration or
ruin : Our soil and climate have undergone
no change for the worse !; our machinery for
abridgirg labor and perfecting its product has
not deteriora,ed ; our active population has
lost nothing in point of energy and skill
Whence is it then, that our prosperity has
been thrown into allegiance. that the capita.
list finds no outlet for his means, and the la.
korer remains without employment
The length of the Committees letter for.
bids its insertion entire. It is written with
great force and spirit,-Mr Clay replies as
follows !:

~DuftIfNg--We learn with unfeigued plea
sure that measures are on foot among some eI
our Worthiest and bravest citizens; to call out
some expression of public feeling on the sub.
iect of duelling, which has come into such
unusual vogue in OH city this sumner ttis
certainly veil #orttiy the consideration Of The
Humane and honorable, whether SOME mear .
may not be devised for The adjustment Of pr
vate differences between gentlemen, that shall
obyiate the necessity Of an appeal to rms
save IN those extreme and rare eaees Ii which
satisfaction caf only be obtained b. the dHatb
Of one Of tile parties. Even should no practl-
cal suggestion grow out Of a free and sober
dI5cussIot Of the subject, at a meeting Of those
who would stay the frequency Of dtieIling if
not prevent it altogether; still such q meeting
would exercise a saliitafy moral Influence,
which tao,,ld itself prevent a call to The field
in many Of those cases in which differences
are trtfling, and " the sober, second thoughts
Of either party would enable their ffiefds to
bring about honorable adjustments.
The measures now projected will COME be
fore the public under auspices TO convince all
that il humanity may gain something from the
steps proposed, the catlse OF true honor viii
be n no whit lnfringed upon thereby.
