LETTER FROM PROF. wEBsTER's DAUGH-
TER.
The following letter is published in the
Manchester Messenger. 1t will be read with
inainfln infnrnsf -
CAMpRIDeE, April 9Th, 1850.

CAMBRIDGE, April sth, 1850.
Daniel Marsh, Esq:--Sir,-I this nothing
received the very kind letter you addressed
to me, and which hasten TO answer 10 thank
you, in the name of my mother, my sisters,
and myself for the true sentiments you en-
terrain respecting my beloved father, on
believe him innocent, and you believe 'rhd'
is true. He is the victim of circumstances,
deeply injured man. That he is innocent,
we his family know, and nothing on earth
will ever take from us this conviction we
have never, from the moment he was snatch
ed from his home, had shadow OF doubt on
our minds and whatever the world may say
Or do, we shall ever have that feeling TO sup
port us. The knowledge Of his innocence
supported my father during the hours oil sui
fering in the courtroom; that it is that gives
him and us calmness now, amidst the many
sources of sorrow that have overwhelmed us.
Far different from what we anticipated,
was the result of the trial; for we had been
assured throughout the winter that our ia'her
could not but be restored TO us, and that at the
trial he must receive Justice for the many
wrongs that had been heaped upon him. But
Justice fled from the courtroom, and Preju-
dice took her place.
Yet hope still fingers with US, for we trust
that the public voice will be raised against
gross injustice that has been committed, and
will not allow our country TO bear such stig-
ma on her name, such an everlasting stain,
as will be that of the sacrifice of one so truly
innocent as my father. And if one word
from us, sir, can add a feathers weight to
the efforts that are being made, oh, may we
give you the deep assurance OF our hearts,
that we feel grateful for the interest that you
express and feel, and for what you are doing
in our behalf. May God, in his infinite mer-
cy, look down upon you, and bless the efforts
that are being made and il it is not his will
10 bring the truth TO light, and TO allow this
awful mystery 10 be explained, may he en-
tighten the minds of those into whose hands
the case will pass.
must again thank you, sir, for the kind
feeling You express towards my dear father.
Nothing that the world can do now gives us
greater consolation than the knowledge that
others believe him innocent, Sympathy has
flowed abundantly from many hearts towards
US, his family but how much more priced
by us, is that sympathy, when expressed for
him! That our beloved father may be re-
stored 10 us, is the fervent prayer of our
hearts: and we wait tremblinuly in the hope,
that those who are now 10 decide in this case
may see the terrible injustice that has been
committed, and has inflicted so much suffer-
ing on so many.
s.n Believe me, sir, gratefully yours,
HARRIET w. WEBSTER.

SIR JOHN FRANKLIN.

We are indebted TO James Sinclair, Esq,
for the following extract from letter TO him
from A. McDermot, dated Selkirk's Colony,
Feb. l3, lS50
"a packet has just arrived from McKen-
zie's River, which brings news that the ship
that went in search of Captain franklin is
wintering in McKenzie's River. This packet
is sent post haste by the States. IL is thought
the Captain is still alirc.
"Sir John Richardson and MIR. Bell are 10
leave this in few days, taking with them
all the men except eight, two of whom are
10 remain here during the Summer, whilst
the other six are 10 accompany me down the
Coppermne to the Polar Sea when, hope,
if the season proves favorable; 10 add little
TO the chart Of these regions.
Mr.. Sinclair has also kindly favored us with
an extract from a letter from John Rae, dated
at Fort Confidence, 3Oth April, 1919. The
writer is attached to the expedition Of Sir
John Richardson, and his account of the very
favorable weather during the winter of lS4S-
9, leaves reason 10 hope that the search for
Sir John Franklin was prosecuted under the
most favorable circumstances, and as we
have reason to hope, with success.
Mr.. Rae says:
"The weather here has been very fine
compared with the experience of Dease and
Sinclair these have not been eight days du-
ring the last six months so stormy as to pre-
vent travelling. We have had an excellent
house 10 live in, with an abundance of wood
and venison, and very fine fish, as much as
we could consume, with large stock on
hand, in the store al present.
"When the packet arrived here was alb
sent, at the Kendall River, with the first por-
ton of stores and provisions for The summers
consumption, but returned two days after
Groat number of deer were seen, all migrat-
ing northward. "--St, Louis hteHigcncer,

[For the Americana
THAT OLD PINE TREE AT FORT AUGUSTA

IT'S gone, that old familiar tree,
Upon which we loved TO gaze,
And in our fancy picture DER
The scenes of former days,
No more, sweet songsters of the wood,
Shall find protection there
In vain, the lowing herds may search,
For their old accustomed lair
The stately trunk, the spreading boughs,
The huge, yet graceful form,
Hath bowed TO many an angry blast,
And many pclling storm.
We loved it, for It's memories,
A great grandsire placed it there,
Near the spot, where dear departed friends
Were laid with tender care.
Like a mighty sentinel it stood,
Swayed by each gentle blast,
'Twould chant a solemn requiem,
As if mourning for the past;
The red mans relics slrew The ground,
Meath, where lis shadow lay,
Sad mementos of a powerful race,
All, all have passed away.
IT'S gone, that old familiar tree,
Beneath whose ample shade,
The weary oft have sought repose,
And the sporive hocks have played
A pleasing melancholy reigns,
Around that sacred spot,
Hallowed by kindred ties removed,
Beyond the range of thought. |.

Q5@ THE WEATHER.-This is an ever
lasting theme in conversation as well as in
newspapers, but it is one in which we all
feel an interest. Thus far we have had a
cold Spring. April has been less pleasant
than February, and unless we soon have a
change, vegetation will be, in some degree,
affected. Grain already, in some places, as
sumes yellowish hue. We trust, how
ever, that change will soon take place
and that we shall have no occasion TO ex-
claim in the language of one Of our poets,

Bitter BIT.-on Thursday evening, upon
the arrival of the cars from Washington at
the Pratt street depot, an attempt was made
by some scientific abstractionist TO fleece a
worthy clergyman. The Reverend gentle
man, upon alighting from The car felt hand
in his pocket, softly removing his pocket
book, which contained two hundred dollars
1not small sum for preacher) and quickly
turning round, dealt the scoundrel such a
blow in the physiognomy as to knock him
down, the pockel-book falling upon the
ground at the same time. The preacher has.
tily picked up the wallet, and looking round
saw the fellow going along the track at the
rate Of 2 40.--Balt. Sun.
