DROWNED.
Ye fatal foods, why did We So
Nor heed that cry, that wall of woe;
Or brothers effort vain,
Why seize with dire, with eager haste,
Thatlo one from our fond embrace,
The darling of the train.
When he came here twas but to lave,
Nor did he deem 'twoud be his grave
Or else he'd stayed away;
This youthful heart was full of joy,
Why snatch him then, or why destroy,
On that most hopeful day.
My wretched heart, be still-be still,
Twas God that took him twas his will,
From evil yet to come,
Though sad our hearts, though swift our tears,
He's safe from life's tormentng fears
In that blest happy home. O

GERRITT SMITH has formally withdrawn from
the State Temperance Society, sending to the
Treasurer, at the same time, his check for one
hundred dollars, which he had subscribed The
cause of his withdrawal was the reconsideration
and modification of resolution that had been
reported by Mr.. s. and adopted, declaring that
Temperance men should withhold their support
from political parties that did not make Tempe
rance a cardinal principle.

BOSTON, July 8.
The wife and daughters of Professor Webster
appeared before the Governor and Council to
day to pleadin behalf of the husband and father.
Mrs. Webster said she had been unwaving in
the belief of her husbands innocence until he
had made his confession; she also stated that it
was chiefly through her means and representa-
tons that the petition for pardon and protestation
of his innocence afterwards withdrawn was
sent in.
The Council sent for DR.. Putnam, and stated
that they having great doubts on certain points
in the confession had consulted separately three
eminent surgeons, and document had been pre-
pared for him to present to Professor Webster
but before the document was read the doors were
closed; but it was understood that one of the
questions propounded was whether such stick
as described in the confession, would give such
blow as would cause death in ten minutes and
the other question answered adverse to the con-
fession. The opinion is universally expressed
that no commutaton will be granted.

Do1NG SHERHF.--Th steamship New
World, recently laqpched at New York, and
bound for California, was levied upon for $780,
900, and put in charge of the SherifFs deputies.
On Sunday, the 18th inst, the Sheriff himself
being on board, discovered that the engineer
was fireing up, and inquiring of the captain
the reason for so doing, was answered that the
machinery had become little rusty, by laying
at the dock, and it was desirable that it should
be kept in motion, that it might not spoil. Short
" afterwards the fasts were let loose, causing
another inquiry, and the response that the cap
tain wished to cruise little. After a few turns
round the harbor, the steamer made, her way
down the harbor, which induced an opening Of
the eyes of the sheriff to the true state Of af-
fairs, when he seized the captain, and demanded
that The ship should return. . The crew how
ever, came to the captains assistance, put the
sheriff and aids ashore at Stain Island, and
the New World was off under full head Of
steam for California. 75 i7'1

MAHoMET AND HIS DOCTRINES. One Of the

contend. at the outset of bis prophetic career,
was the ridcule Of bis opponents. Those who
had known him from his infancy-who had seen
him boy about the streets Of Mecca; and after.
wards occupied in all the ordinary concerns Of
life, scoffed at his assumption of the apostolic
character. They pointed with sneer ,f at him
as Ne passed, exclaming, aBehoId the grandson
Of fAdd-al-Motalleb, who pretends to know what
IS going onin heaven! Some who had witness
ed his fits ofsmental excitement and ecstacy.
considered him insane; others declared that he
was possessed with devil, and some charged
him with sorcery and magic: When he walked
the streets he was subject to those jeers, and
taunts, and Insults, which the vulgar are apt
to vent upon men of eccentric conduct and m
settled mind { If be attempted to preach, his
ribald songs; nay, dirt was thrown upon him

1st Subscribers who do not give express
aotce to the contrary are considered wishing
to continue their subscription.
I'd. If subscribers order the discontinuancc
of their papers, the publisher may continue to
send them till all that is due be paid.
3D. If subscribers neglect or refuse to take
their papers from the Office to which they are
directed, they are held responsible till they have
settled their bill, and order their papers discon-
tinued.
4th. If subscribers remove. to other places,
without informing the publishers, and the pa
per is sent to the former direction, they are held
responsible.
5th The courts have decided that refusing
to take paper or periodical from the office, or
removing and leaving it uncalled for is prima
tacie evidence of intentional fraud
Judge Thompson, of Indiana, decided recent
ly: "That when subscriber to a periodical
failed to notify the editor to discontinue the pa
per at the end of the time for which he sub
scribed, or pay up. arrearages' he was boundfor
another year" .....o. ..... ...t,.,

A Rom Cossp1R RAT1oN-The head of the re-
cent Russian conspiracy was very young man,
Nicholas Kaschkine, who is described Aas being
an honorary councillor. Kaschkine's father
it appears, is an exile in Siberia, and the Empe-
ror, supposing that this circumstance had occa-
stoned the sons rebellion, had him brought be-
fore him. He was received with unlocked for
kindness and liability, and the following melo
dramatic scene is said to have taken place:
"You are Young, NJ. Kaschkine, and you
have another still better excuse" said the mag
unanimous Emperor to him. "Under the mask
of politics, you have wished, suspect, to salts
fly desire Of vengence for the condemnation OF
your father, which you regard as lnlqutous-
The power which keeps him in Siberia cannot
be considered legitimate in the eyes OF good
son. and can comprehend the imprudent pas
sion which has placed you in my hands. l shall
not therefore abuse the terrible right which
have over you, and if your repentance suggest
to- you any avowals which may render leglti-
mate an absolute pardon-if you make known
the detail of the conspiracy, the names OF your
oaccomplices, all may yet be forgotten. Yourtu-
ture career shall not be stopped; you shall be
restored to liberty" etc. "Sire, interrupted
NJ. Kaschkpe, "do not proceed any further,
and, above all things, abandon your"error., NO
thought of vengeance has inspired me with the
idea of putting an end of your domination. In
our family the condemnation of my father is re-
garded as a title of honor. Personally,I do not
think can do anything to add to the honor of
our name, if it were not by contributing to- the
annihilation of your race and Of your degrading
authority The conversation took place before
witnesses, who uttered an exclamation ofhorror
! whether real or feigned. The Emperor affect
ed the most perfect sang froid. "That young
man is madman," he said 'it is not dungeon
but a madhouse that he merits" It's, in fact to
madhouse that Kaschkine has been sent.
