By the Caledonan, which arrived at Boston on
Friday, Liverpool dates to March 9Th are recelv-
ed.
The Irish trials were brought to close at the
end of % days, and each of the Iraversers has
been found guilty of the charge preferred against
him by the government, but as yet the country is
ignorant as to the mode or extent Of punishment
to be awarded-sentcnces being deferred till next
term. In the mean time a thousand rumours and
specuatons are hazarded, as TO what effect the
trial will have upon the condition of Ireland, and
future movement of the repealers.
In the mean time Mr.. O'Conne has, on behalf
of his companions, protested against the verdict
and has minated that so soon as sentence shall
have been passed. he will have the matter ject-
ed to the whole body Of Judges in Ireland, and
that, if their decision should be unfavorabIe, he
will appeal to the House Of Lords, before he will
submit.
A Liverpool paper says:
In our opinion, no punishment will be infiCt-
ed-and particularly if matters should progress as
quietly as they have done since the conclusion of
the triaIs-for the whole country, which was in Il
state of the utmost excitement before, is now as
calm as an unrufled lake"

dered that copies should he sent to every parish in
Ireland for signature. Another measure adopted
was the severance of all connexion between the
Association and Arbitration Courts, aud a recon-
mendaton to settle among Themselves the disputes
and differences by arbitrators, to be in each case
chosen by the parties themselves, without refer
ence whatsoever to the repeal association.

From the ALBANY Patriot.

VERY lMPoRTANT.-After having placed into
the hands of our composition more than enough to
fill our paper we received package from our val
ued correspondent, CHARLES L. ToRREY. We
lay aside some articles of interest to make room
for the following Of greater interest:
PROGRESS IN THE SOUTH.
In many parts Of the South our cause is ASST
ming Il bold and decided attitude.
In Delaware Convention met last week, and
made arrangements for efficient action against the
remnants Of slavery in that State-men are en-
barked in it who will never sleep nor tire.
In Maryland it is highly probable that SINH
lar movement will be made, before summer. The
Baltimore Saturday Visitor Ga large, and well es-
tablish literary paper, $500 year, which many
Of our wealthy aboIltonistS ought to take) may be
deemed the organ of Maryland and Virginia abo-
litionism. 1t is as decided an abolition paper as
the Patriot. And what is BETTER have good au-
thory for saying that its course meets the appro-
baton of most of its large circle of subscribers in
GLIDING many shareholders.
In Wing na, in five or six counties, quite distant
from each other, there will be Il good number OF
votes for BIRNEY and MoRRIs; and Aboitionisn
may be considered as organised for future and eff
cient action.
In KENTUCKY, the movement freedom is dali
ly assuming a more and more decided character

found worthy to be associated with that Of the hon
ored JAMES G. BIRNEY, is not without host OIL

CaSsiuS NJ, CLAW and Northern Politics,

We do not know single democratic paper that
has republished or noticed the very eloquent
speech of Cassius M. Clay on the subject Of Tex
as and slavery. So much for democratic sympa-
thy for humanity. One or two Wing papers have
republished it, we believe. The Boston Courier,
published it as an advertisement, for pay, and pre-
faced it with certain dsparaging remarks-un-
mingled with word of sympathy.
We confess we are deeply grieved at such con-
tages to be derived by the Liberty party from this
cold bIooded policy, for the sake of seeing a bet
ter feeling among our countrymen. Is it not re-
ally duty, when we see noble southerner stand
up and beard the lion in his den, to speak kind
words to him, and assure him of our sympathy .
Or have we fallen so low, that we must cover in
silence beneath the frown of the naughty oligar-
chy, whose vengeance he fearlessly brands where
it has the power to work its will PhilanthrOpiSt

We learn from the Proysdence Journal, that the
trial of Thomas w. Dorr has been fixed for tho
Goth of April-the earliest day at which the enga-
gements ofthe Court would allow the trial to como
on.
Private Post 0Gce.-The question of the legali-
ty OF the private post office, lately established by
Mr.. Lysander spooner, of New York, and his
agents in various parts of the country, has been
tested in the courts A suit was Instituted in the
U. 5. District Court, III session in Baltimore,
Judge Heath presiding, against Mr.. Spooners a.
gent there, for violation Of the general post office
laws The suit was decided against Mr.. Spooner,
and he was fined fifty dollars.
The exports from New Haven to the West Indies,
in 1912, amounted, says the New Haven Padum,
to $4O8 1868; and in l949, to $5l466l.
MGrSlJteld Beaten.-Week before last, Mr. David
Paine, of Leicester, VT, killed hog Fl months
old, weighing 1913 pounds. Who beats that?
The Westfeld Messenger says, MIR. Luke Drury
cut his throat IN that place the 9Th nst because

DEATH OF A DRUNKARD.-The Salem(O )Vil-
Iage Register furnishes us with the particulars of
death which occurred in New Lisbon, a town in
the vicinity, on the 10th inst. There was fox
hunt on that day, at which liquor had been freely
used. Becoming too much intoxicated to con-
tinue the hunt the poor wretch lay for some hours
on the cold ground, attended only by his son, lad
about twelve years old, who, ON finding himself
unable to get his drunken father away, went home
and informed his mother Of the circumstances.
Still hoping he would return she did not send after
him-night came on, and he was accidentally dis
covered by neighbour who carried him to a house
near by, where he expired in a few hours His
body was brought to town, and for some cause ex-
hbted at grocery. The effect upon his wife is
said to have been horrifyng and heart-rending
The next morning the grocer who had sold the
man liquor; brought out the remainder of his stocl
and burncdit, having first signed the pledge. Hi
example was followed by another gro GER, At IT,,

A JoKE.-The New London Gazette says, "when
we approve of and support Henry Clay for the
Presidency, we feel that we are exerting what
little influence we have in the cause Of freedom
in the cause of equal rights" &C. This is cool.
Henry Clay has declared that slavery is sanctfed
by legislation, and that he would sooner suffer the
fortunes of the inquistion than sign bill for the
abolition of slavery in the District of Columbia !
Yet to support such one, is to sustain equal
rights, eh? We hope that men who reason thus,
do net carry the same principles into their relig-
lon-if they do we shall expect to see them choos-
ing atheists for their clergymen, and appointing
debauchees to lecture upon moral purity.-Chris.

The Van Zandt Case,

Mn. ED1roR;-I am glad the Van Zandt case is
again before the public. There should be no de-
lay. Even now the money may be needed. Is
there Vermonter who has the soul Of man that
would not give fifty cents or dollar in such
cause? Such a man should be ashamed to look
himself in the face. A citizen of America, for
doing an act of humanity, seized under our slave
catching law, which extends its bloody fangs over

INFORMATION WANTED.

Sometime in October last a man named T.
Johnson, and calling himself Il regular agent of
the New England Washingtonan Temperance
Society, showing letter from the President of
the same, also letter of recommendation from
Judge Collamer, came and lectured on temper
ance in this place and vicinity, and gave very gen.
eral satisfaction. After his lectures he presented
plan which he said had been agreed upon by
the Society, of publishing work on temperance
once in two months; price twenty-five cents for
each number; and whenever they paid him for IL
Nos. in advance, another lecturer was to come in
two months and give a lecture and present the
books. He received from 10 to 10 subscribers in
a place and the pay. Since then we have heard
nothing from him or any one else. The cause Of
temperance is suffering in consequence of this
viii some one give us information? He was of
Irish descent, had lame hand which he said was
the consequence of his fathers drunkenness. He
was small in stature, Of sandy complexion, and
appeared like an honest man, and we have been

.46ray-The Nashville Wing ofthe 9th suys:-I
I'VE had another Shooting match in this city on
the night Of Thursday last, between two young
men, in which one was badly wounded, and the
other slightly. Such scenes are much TOO frequent
IN this city to suffer them to pass without setting
upon them the seal OF condemnation. Unless
some cfectual means be adopted to check such oc-
currences, our city will get bad name abroad
Very good comments, on the murderous a1ray:
but they come with an i'll grace from paper
which would place at the head of this nation
man, whose infamous notoricty as a duelIi5t enti-
ties him to stand in the front rank Of these desper-
ate characters. Is this the way the editor would
put his seal Of condemnation upon this murder
ously barbarous practice? Are these the effect
ual means he would adopt to check such occur
rences and to render them less frequent? If they
are, he and his consistent party should hod the
patent right for this wonderful discovery in the
mode of amending national morals Liberator.
Fatal Duei-A fatal duel was fought on the Goth
uIt. at VickSburg, Miss, between Mr. Hanmet,
editor Of the Vicksburg Wing, (and brother of the
member of Congress from Mississippi and Mr.
Ryan, editor of the Sentinel. They fought with
pistols, and at the usual distance. At the fourth
/ fire, Mr.. Ryan fell, MORALLY wounded, being shot
directly through the lungs. He died within ten
minutes. The same parties had met, before and
exchanged shots with rifles. The difficulty then
arranged upon the ground. MIR Ryan was the sue
cesSor of Dr.. Hagan in the editorial chair, who
was killed within the last year.
Shocking .uurder-The Natchez Courier of
the Goth ult. gives the following particulars of a
dreadful murder recently perpetrated in Louisiana;
Miss Demoss was killed about the 18th ult.
near Minden, Claiborne parish, La. She left the
house of Il neighbOr in the evening, to return to
the house of her father, respectable planter, but
not arriving, a search was commenced, and
young man, by name Lambwright, was met in the
woods Upon the searchers proposing to go up
certain branch, he stated that it was no use, he had
been there, hunting, SC, They did go, however,
and found her dead. She had been violated, Sc
verely beaten, and then her head was held under
the water to finish the work of death.
