SINGULAR DEvELopRMENTs.-A writer in
Cist's Advertiser, in giving sketches of the
"First Sediment Of Ohio," states what was
long been accomplished, that Burr and his
'accomplices, on their trial in Virginia, were
acquitted. Such is not the case. Another
wliter in that journal states the facts TO be
as follows, which are strictly true. He says
"Now, by referring to the records of the
Citcuit Coutt of the United States for Vir-
ginia, he will find that Burr aud his accom-
plices were not acquitted; the Court decid-
ed, on melton of counsel, that they had not
committed an overt act within the jurisdc-
ton of Virginia, and ordered that they should
give bond to appear before the Circuit Court
of the U. States for Ohio. The Grand Jury
in Ohio found bills, but there was singular
omission in the bend; although it required
them to appear before the Circuit Court in
Ohio, ii did not specify mhen. Availng
themselves Of this emission, they did not ap-
pear, and the case has not yet been tried, as
will be found by an examination of the rec
ords." ASA 1na95d iu s& ELI ,A;7a.

A FINE PICTURE OF FEDERALISM

The "North American probably in the
spirit of the man who doubted his own ex-
sience, is sometimes inclined 10 deny that
the democracy of this country is entitled to
that name, but the federalists are. In order
10 settle this question. we purpose pointing
out the striking resemblance between the
federalism which opposed the late war, and
that 0he. party of our contemporary which
opposes the present We copy from Math-
ew Carey's solve Branch" the following
graphic and truthful sketch:
"Those (says Mr.. Carry who are unac-
quainted with tue causes that led 10 the late
war, might, from the publications that have
appeared against il, believe that the United
States were 1Uholy the aggressors--ttat
England had been tame and submissive
sufferer Of degradation, outrage, and insult
and that our rulers had been wantonly led,
by inordinate and accurSed ambition, 10 en-
gage in ruinous and dest ructive war, in
order 10 enrich themselves, squander away
the puGlc treasure, and impovorish the ma
lion. They were, it would appear, actuated
by as unholy motives as ever impeled Atiila,
tTr,-ughis Khan, or Bonaparte, 20 perpetrate
outrage and cruelty to the utmost extent OF
!heir power. ..,.
"These allegations were made in the
strongest language III the London papers,
The prince regent appealed to the world,
that Great Britain had got been the aggres-
sor in the war. And, as we have seen, the
lords of the admiralty asserted that war was
declared 'afier all the grievances With thisI
had been removed
"7Ae federal papers re-cchoed and mag
niGcd the accusations Of the British, uritcrs,
and succeeded so far us 10 influence a large
portion of the public with the most frantic
exasperalon against the rulers of their
choice, whom they suspected OF having
abused their confidence. Governor. of
States in their addresses, as areu as SSNtes
md Houses of Representatives. in he. re
olies, took the same ground, and asafn&
ysilt, and prefigacy, and corruption, a$tbe
parents ofthe w0r."' ... ......, -.
The Senate of Massachusetts followed the
example Of the House, and declared that
"Ihe sar scaS founded in ,fdlsehood, de-
,lared witho@ necessity, and its real object
raS ertent of territory By unjust conqaeSts,
and TO aid the late ,yrant of Europe in his
view of aggrandizement." F.
The reader will have n3 difficulty in find
ing wherein this sketch of federalism in
ISl2-'l4, is true Of federalism in lS47.-
# there ever was doubt as TO the question,
his extract would settle it. The offspring
,oIdN vindicates and asserts its ancestry,
md the descendant proves itself worthy Of

Coutts is daughter of this last marriage,
and Of the old banker. Cout.s having lost
his first wife IN 1915, married, in three
months after her death, Harriet Mellon, an
actress of some celebrity, on which be had
several years before settled fl00,00o sierl-
ing, and with whom his relations were by
no means oquivocal. He died about twen-

what he deemed an ample settlement upon
bis daughters, he left The whole of his cnor-

A valuable lesson is tadgbt' in this scrap

lifully and consistently with the predictions
of the federal presses and orators pending
the Annexation of Texas, and throws much
light upon their course now. The exlen-
sion of territory has ever been a fightful

bloody bones to the federalists. Hating the
equalizing principles of the Republican sys-
TEN, they are found always in opposition to-
every movement calculated to disseminate
them. What Josiah Quincy's prophecy was
worth in 1911, is the full value Of the pres
dictions of the Corwns, the Websters and
English editors of mis-called National press

to be deluded by their hypocritical cant III
