FREDERICK BOUNTY.

AS usual The contest in this county for the Le-
g~isIa1urc promises to be a warm and exciting one,
though we confidently h~opcSand predict the com,
plctc success of the Democratic ticket. Mr.. J.
Randolph Tucker, from private reasons entirely
beyond his control, having been compelled to de-
cline the nomination rendered him by the Demo
cratic Convention as ono OF lis candidates, Jnuy
BRUCE, Esq was unanimously nominated in his
stead, at u Mass Meeting ofNhe party on Monday
week (Court.day } To the people of Frederick

the sterling qualities OF the bead and the heart Of
Mr.. B: no commentator from US is needed. In

who would enhance the best interest Of his coun.
ty, and reflect credit upoa that constituency
whose intelligence and discsrnment might select
him, Mr.. hucn ia pie.eninMntly the man. As a
high toned and honorable gentleman, a man Of
indomitabIe energy and rare business qualities
and as a scholar with no superior in the Valley
of Virginia, he has always commanded the cOnfit
deuce and respect of his fel'ow-citizens of all par
ties where he is best known and appreciated
Any efforts, therefore, 10 traduce and villilY
through party malevoience Or the fostering sores
Of past conflicts, the hitherto untarnished name
of Mr.. Bruce, will recoil upon his defamers, ard
elicit the scorn and Indignation Of even his most
decided political enemies.
The Wing candidates are Mcssrs. john F,

CONTINUATION. OF PROF WEB
STEERS SENTENCE.

As stated by telegraph, efforts are already ma
King in Bostonsto have this unhappy 1nan.sssen-
.tence commuted to imprisonment, and we notice
ahat in New York also a petition il, circulating
praying for executive clemency, on The ground
'tthat the enlightened spirit of The age should al
ways be invoked for the projection and relief of
those charged and convicted Of capital crimes,
where reasonable doubt exists in regard to the
committal of the offence charged, and of the:jus.
lice of a conviction under such circumstances.
It is said, too, that efforts will undoubtedly be
made by his friends to have him pardoned, though,
Judge with. not much probability OF success,
for Gov. Briggs during the l~asl!year has emphati-
cally taken ground that tic executive OF a State
has no right to. pardon: a convict, or in any way
overthrow the verdict of a jury, unless new test
mony should be f~orthcomingTtiIa might, in his
opinion, had it been brought before he jury, have
caused them to have rendered a different verdict.
On this subject the Boston correspondent of
The New York Mirror Calter stating that the Co
vernon and council in their discretion fix the day
Of execution)ss says %s ia =Jnnbn531i>s az a.
"Thcrc is not the slightest probability, am

now. The efforts made so zealously and SO lnei.
~fectually for the procurement of The. pardon of
Washington Goode, ora Communication Of his SEN
tence, are as yet well remembered by all, and the
succoss of similar ones in favor OF q professor,
would produce a sensation scarcely, if any. short
of tumultuous in this community. No! like the
guilty Thane o. Scotland, this ill.advised, Inflated
man has set his life upon the hazard Of die, and
he must stand The cast. Unless he takes his life
meantime, (and that he will as appreilended by
many.) it will and must be paid as the penalty
of the offended law. OF this there. cnnuot be a
doubt. -
We notice also that a memorial. taking similar
ground to the one in New York, is also being cir
culated in Philadelphia Cor signatures. The one
in New York, a ~letter,to the Pennsylvania says,
is signed by every body, almost, to whom it is
presented.
In Boston the prevailing opinion seems to be,
among all classes, that all the parties to the
of this remarkable trial, including

We have been requested and also deem it our
duty to state, that SO far as our observation has
extended, or so far as we have been able TO learn,
our neighbors of the " Free Frees" have been
misinformed as to any coalition at Iiarpcrs.Ferry
between the friends of Messrs. Harrington and
Duke, to do injustice to Inc other candidates who
are now before the people, Whatever may be
the result when the day 5f trial has,gonc by, tie

CoNv1cT1oNfoF DIR. WEBSTER:

Our readers, who have had before them a full
synopsis of the evidence in this extraordinary
case, will have made up their minds as to the guilt
or innocence OF the prisoner. We! confess that
the testimony for the Commonwealth looked very
dark against the prisoner, but .le evidence for the
defence, which seemed direct and unimpeached,
appeared, on the o:hethand, lc throwmuch doubt
over the whole case. -We.werc, therefore, no
little taken by surprise, on hearing tlIat the jury
had convicted the. prisoner OF murdet il" tbs f.st
degree. At this distance from the scene'df ac-
ton, we would not throw distrust OF the Justice

the facts before theet they were doabt!csc justi-

strargcst on record, :&nd is anotheG proof Of the

passions. DR.. Webster was a man Of the highest
