Herbert Acuuitted---Shamefl1l.

Nothing more painful or shameful has recent.
ly occurred in the administration of our govern
ment than the complete acquittal of HERBERT,
the California Member of Congress, for shooting
HEATING, the head waiter at Millard's Hotel
The facts are, Herbert came into the dining room
after hours, and demanded his breakfast. keat-
ing told him in reply that it was after hours
and he could not get it without special order
from the clerk. To this Herbert replied by cal
ling him id Irish son of b-h. Very nat
urally Heating replied with warmth when Her
bert struck him. Heating defended himself,
which led to a general melee of waters on one
side, and Herbert and friends on the other
And after the struggle was principally over, and
all danger to Herbert had passed, he deliberate
~ drew a revolver and shot Heating dead. And
now, after trial in the district of Columbia, he
is acquitted and will at once no doubt, resume
his seat in Congress, and go on making laws
Tor our governance. From all we can learn, ii
IS not denied we believe, that shameful parti-
alay IN favor of Herbert was manifested by the
Court, and that his acquittal was by such mani
.estation Of Partially. Just suppose the waiter
Lad killed the member Of Congress, instead, will
any man doubt that Heating would have been
hung as high as Hannah. But in these modern
days ofSquatter Sovereignty, member of Con
gress, even though California blaclleg and bal
lot box suffer, is infinitely better in the eyes OF
slave holders and slave holding judges, than an
honest Irish waiter. If our voters want to know
in brief, the influence which makes this state OF
things, they will find it in the following from
that leading democratic journal, the Charleston
Is. c. Standard
Herbert and Heating.
Amy provocation that may have been given
for the assault upon him by the body of waitefs,
was at the most provocatOn of words, and such
Il pr0c0cation as a servant should not hare the
rjght to resent: and # ichite men accept the Offices
Of meHiais, 1t Sh0ud be expected that they tct do
nth an apprehension Of their relation to society,
and the disposition quietly to encounter both the re-
SpOnsibititteS and the liabilities chich the relation
imposes
That is it exactly If white men accept an
honorable mode of earning living by tabor,
they must understand that it involves the right
of any blackguard to shoot them with impunity.
1t is nice state of affairs, it is. And we had
better vote to continue it, us who labor had
The man who does it, is fit to be a slave and
nothing else.

Correspondence Of the Smyrna Times.

LITTLE CREEK LANDING, Kent Co., Del,
March II, 1856. {
Mr.. Editor The cold winter having pass
ed, with all Its joys and sorrows, we gladly hail
the approach of spring, and listen with pleasure
to the music of the robin, and of the pretty
blue bird as he hops from bough to bough, seem
ing to say ia few days-a few days"
Those who were fond of sleighing certainly
enjoyed that pleasure to their hearts content /;
but for the aged, the infrm and the INDECENT,
the winter. we would think, had few comforts
All had opportunity to read, tc study, and to
improve, for the extreme cold prevented most
people from attending to outdoor business.
The people here are waiting anxiously for
favorable weather to come in order to commence
the business of the season.
-Four or five sloops have been engaged in car
rying corn from this place to Mahon's river,
where it is taken on board larger vessels. Sew
eral schooners have taken their departure from
Mahon's, this month, for New York, and some
are still there, waiting for fair wind. Shops
have not yet been able to navigate the Della
ware, in consequence of ice.
Everything seems dull here at present, but
there will probably be change when the wea
Their becomes pleasant and settled.
The people of Little Greek Landing have
hitherto been attentive each to his own affairs
and the majority continue to be so, but every
place of this slse must have it's gossips and it
busy-bodies. Perhaps it is right that the limo
cent should sometimes be made TO suffer,
For if.life's path were only strewed with flow
| ers, ..s.
We should forget our own immortal powers,
| And stoop 10 gather roses on our way.
And lose in trifiing pleasures life's short day.
If there had been a Lyceum in the village tn
men might have found more important topic
for discussion. Something, at least, more bene
fetal than calumny and detraction. He who
disposed to censure others, should look we'll I
himself: there may be room for improvement
in his own conduct
20! would some power the gitie gle us,
To see ourselves as others see us!"
and then we would not be so apt to criticist
misrepresent or censure the character of othe
persons.
Misunderstanding sometimes cause littl
improprieties to be magnifed into great evil
and the character Of some poor, friendless on
may thereby be seriously injured. Professin
Christians should at least be charitable, an
not willing to believe evil reports without pos
tive proof, for "charity sufereth long and
kind" Yours, &c, l.. E. T.
Smyrna times., 1856-03-26

Editor, that he is one who has ever sustained
character unspotted, and has been a consistent
member of the NJ. E. Church-hence the allu.
sion above made to that church.
The citizens of this place are blessed with a
well-conducted Temperance Hotel. The place
thus occupied has been known for many years
as a very disagreeabls rum-hole. MIR. Smith,
the present proprietor, is a fine man and will
endeavor to render all comfortable around him,
and is worthy of the patronage of all.
Unjust close, lest weary you.
Respectfully, yours, &c, E. H. H.
