"The Judges Of the local Court Of Batavia had mean

Capt G. brought before commission composed OF
members and this Court also declared that there was
nothing in the laws which could make out case for pub
lie trial On the 23d Of December Gibson was again set
az liberty.
..In February, 1853, he was again arrested upon
accusation drawn up by the solicitor which set forth
the circumstances OF Capt Gibsons soou IN the coun-
try and laid special upon the letter he charg

these representations that he had been guilty Of treason
and that his movements were dangerous to the peace Of
Netherland India. The trial commenced the 18th Of
February, and lasted thirteen days Fortythree wit

dangerous to the country, and the warrant sus-

having learned from his counsel that Government
had determined on his execution, and would order
it for the 18th of April made arrangements for his
escape. This was effected through the instrument

the harhor. These friends procured DISCUSSES for
him, so that one day, while the prisoners were at
their meals he passed the guard, left the prison in

PARTY Observation-Disclosures ncknames have al
ways been natural result Of party organizations but we
question whether any age has been prolific Of them as
our own In New York we have the euphonious titles Of
Hunkers," g Barnburnersn "Uardsn Softs . !. Sill
yer Grays, and "Woolley Heads" But it is in Maine
that the most startling novelties Of nomenclature have
developed themselves. We have read Of meetings held
OIL we have Salmon Party {" and Haddock Party"
There is mysterious obscurity about these titles and we
cannot attempt their calculation All we know is that
Gov Crosby was Haddock last year. and is now charg-
ed with being Salmon" Pilsbury before the Bangor
Convention was supposed to be Haddock but since his
nomination is charged with the enormity Of being nothing
short Of Cat Fish," 1t requires more profound pisca
torial knowledge than we claim to demonstrate the
differences between these various nny politicians but we
should think that party supported by such worthless
ought, by oil means, to make handsome nett gain

SPRING, THE MURDERER, SINCE THE TRIAL
We learn that Arthur Spring, Senr., since his con-
vction OF the diabocal murder of Ellen Lynch, has
become entirely Frustrated, more from anguish of
mind than pain Of body, and it is with difficulty that
be can be made TO take sufficient food to keep him
alive. On Saturday his counsel, Mr.. Doran visited
him in prison, and found him lying in state of ex-
harstion, upon his bed, and manfesiing no dispo-
stion to converse. Some stimulating drink had been
prepared fer him, which he refused to take, until
threat was made 10 force it down him. In CONVEX
saton with his counsel, he again asserted his inno-
cence and upon being told that he must restore the
gold which he took from the trunk of Bartholomew
Lynch, be denied ell knowledge of it, but said that
his sen knew all about it, and further said that IL
his son wonld tell where he put the money so that
it could be restored, he would forgive him, and al
low him to come and see him-othcrwise he should
never forgive him. Mr. Doran vainly attempted to
get anything out Of him that was satisfactory II Is
thought that he feigns himself sick. He will doubt
less be in court to-day. We learn that the son has
made other disclosures touching the wickedness OF
his father He says that he went some time since to
the it store Of Mr.. Moroney, corner OF Eighth and
Walnut streets, and intended TO kill Mrs. NJ, who
was alone. He managed 10 slip, unpercevcd,
heavy weight in bis pocket to accomplish his pur-
pose, but was frustrated in his design BY some one
coming into the store. This brings him into the
