PWe have received from Thomas
Duriee, Esq, The Sd number Of the first
volume Of Rhode Island Reports Of the
decisions Of our Supreme Court. We
are very glad that the decicions of this
Court are at last TO be regularly and
punctually reported, because il is very
important TO the profession, and the
public, that these decisions should be in
a tangible form. as a matter Of refer
cnce. Mr.. Durfce, the Reporter, is n
son of the late Chief Justice 'Dur'ec, AMI
ID gentleman who is admirably quail
fed, both by education and talent, .or
this important and responsible duty
The salary Of the Reporter is merely
nominal, and affords no kind Of recon-
pense for the great labor viii ch is re-
quircd TO perfect the Reports. We trust
that the General Assembly will at once
increase tho calary to ouch -cus9nable
sum as will enable Mr.. Durlee TO devote
even more time, in future, to the work;
the salary should be such that the Re-
porter can travel ,hrccgh the Circuit,
and hear the cases argued, in each
County,-he would then be enabled TO
make much more interesting and valu-
able Reports than if he had TO rely en-.
tirely upon the mere records Of the
Courts, and the opinions which are
handed him by the Judges. Until this
is done, Rhode Island cannot expect TO
have the decisions of her Supreme
Court reported in a manner which she
will be proud of because no competent
lawyer can afford to hold the office for
a very long time.
The volume before us contains impor-
tant decisions in large number OF ca
ses, up 10 March, 1851. The typograph-
ical execution is very neat, and quite
equal to the Reports oi any other State
The book may be had OF G.. II Whit
ney, the publisher, Providence. The
present number completes the first vol
ume, and contains full Index and Ia.
bic ofCascs TO the entire volume.

A CLAiRYoYANr PRoPHEcY ABOUT
SIRJoHN RANKLIN.-ln turning over
the exchange papers this morning, our
eyes fell upon the following paragraph,
which purports to have been cut from
paper called ,hc Edinburgh Advertiser,
but Of what date i, is rot saidi
son the l7lh of February last, clair
voyont, whose revelations arc given in
DR.. Gregory's late work stated that
Captain Austin was at that moment in
longitude 95 deg. 45 min. west, which
corresponds exactly with The actual
position Of the place where he Is
now found to have passed the Win
ter. According To her statement, Sir
John Franklin was at the same time in
lon. l0l deg. as min, or about 400 miles
to the westward lie had been previous
Iy relieved, and third ship was .hen
iiozen up along with his two"
Happening to have the work oi DR..
Gregory which is here alluded to, on
ouI table we turned to it, and found
cure enough that on page 3C6 OF the
American edition, it is stated that a ie-
male in the magnetic state, while exam
ining certain letters said to have been
written by Sir John Franklin and Cap
tain Austin, declared that they were at
that moment (Feb. 18th, 1917 in the
longitude above given. The book itself
wns published several months since,
and long before the return of Captain
Austin's expedition.
We next turned to our files Of the
London Times, and found the report of
Captain Austin published at length in
that paper of September 18th, stating,
in the course OF it, that, from the l4th
February, 1851, until after the 18th,
che was fast to the fixed ice, between
Cape Martyr and Griffith Island" Now,
this point, according to our rude meas
urements, on Johnson's map Of the Arc
tic Zones, is just about 95 45, west lon
gitude, from Greenwich.
Here, then, we have prophecy Civ
ing precise numbers, and distinctly re-
corded previous to the time when any
knowledge OF the event referred to could
have been had, and which turns out to
be quite correct. Clairvoyance, which
has been getting somewhat into dsre-
pute, will probably be looking up here
after. 1t has never before habitat
we are aware of-so decided and signal
a success.--Erenng Post.

New METHOD OF SErrIsG GLASS;
Mr.. Sewall Short, OF ihid city, has taken
out letters patent ioi new method OF
constructing window, and other eash,
aud setting tho glass without putty
We have seen a small model, which de-
mOnstrates 10 our mind. as lite as we
! know OF such matters, that the invention
Is valuable one, and must. as sooc es
II becomes known and understood be
generally adopted. Heretofore. when
pane OF glass became broken by" ecti-
dent, or otherwise, glaZier had TO be
summoned inytdnter, who, in removing
the hard putty which held the glass to
the sash not unlrequently injured the
properties Of the sash, materially, be-
sides annoying the occupants oi the
house, and otherwise being attended
with much Inconvenience. BY this new
arrangement Of sash, however, any per-
son, either lady or gentleman, can re-
move broken pane of glass from the
sash, and replace il by whole one, by
simply turning small screw inside the
snsh, and, OF course, inside of The house.
The screw when unlooscd, detaches
the bars Of the sash, which holds the
glass against small strips OF prepared In
ola rubber. The sash may be construc-
ted with view TO ornament, as well
outside as inside, by tn new arrange
ment, as il is subject 10 no chiseiiing by
the master Of the putty knife, should 1t
remain permanent fixture for fiIty
years. Show windows, show cases, &c.
will now be attended with no more in
convenience and trouble than il made
entirely OF wood or metal, as when
pain Of glass is broken, the smallest boy
can replace ii by whole one. In like
manner the windows and roofing for
hot houses can bc. arranged in "A very
beautiful and ornamental manner. But
among all the variety Of sash to which
this new method is adapted, perhaps
none will be more benefited by its APP
pication. than the metallic sash, used
la the construction Of Light House lam
terms. We hear it said, by those who
are competent to Judge, that, for this
latter purpose, 1t Is, and must be, nvalu-
able. The keeper OF the Light can, at
any time, remove a broken pane, and re-
place ii by perfect one, in minute
should the same get broken from any
CNltIliil Caust, SuCh dS Wy eth-IO"i,
which is Of frequent occurrence Oh eve
ry sea coast, in the night. Or, should
he wish TO paint the sash, he can remove
all the class in few minutes, and then
WELD his paint brush, ad ititum, over
thr sash, without getting any paint upon
the glass, which is. and always has
been, serious difficulty with the old
fashioned sash. Bu we need not say
more in ellcidaIion OF this invention
NeW LoadOa Star.
We have carefully examined the a.
bove sash, and cheerfuly endorse all
that the Star says in regard to it. We
learn that twill probably be introduced
into the new Light House at Sandy
Point. An agent will be in town, in
few days, with some of the sashes, and
our citizens will then have an opportu-
nifty to examine them we are quite con-
fiden, that they must at once come. into
general use.

INGEkIous ROBBERY BY THE USE OF
CHLoRoFoRM, The rogues and adept
thieves, who prowl about this big city
for the purpose of committing depreda-
tons Of all grades, have long ago adop-
ted almost every means Of aiding them
in the perpetration Of robberes, but the
following will give our readers the par
ticulars Of new mode Of robbery.
which was successfully carried out by
the shrewd thief. 1t appears Sunday

three o'clock, while three men by the
names Of Richard Leavitt, Josish Paul,
and Bland French were asleep on board

East River, some daring rogue or
rogues, iorcibly entered the cabin of
said vessel, and after opening their dark
lantern, the above individuals were OBJ
served lying In their berths with their
eyes closed, and soGndIy in the arms of
Morpheus, whereupon the villains ap-
piled the stoppel part of vial of Chlo-
rolorm TO the nos 'ris Of each person for
q sufficient length OF time 10 allow them
to inha!e the requisite quantity of said
drug, which had the desired effect and
when the victims of these ingenious
robbers awoke, they discovered the cab
in had been ransacked and pIundered of
a valuable gold watch and chain, all
their wearing apparel and wallets, con-
tanning about $50 in Bank bills, with
which the rascals made their escape and
have not since been heard of. The
above case is new feature in the hsto-
ry OF crime, and vie will moi be surpris-
ed in future, TO hear Of other robberies
being committed by still more ingenious
operations.-N Y Times.

MARGARET GARRiTy.-After this per-
son had been acquitted OF the murder of
Edward Drum, on the ground of insani-
ty, as we learn from the Newark Adver
tiser, the Court appointed committee
oil six physicians to examine the prison
er, and report whether she was insane,
for the purpose Of ascertaining under
the statute whether she should be sent
to the luna,ic asylum, or dischargcd.-
The committee reported that they find
at present no evidence of unsound mind,
and the Court concurring in that opin-
ion, the prisoner was released from Gus
