BuRNISG OF NEGRO IN ALABAMA-Wef find
the following account of the burning of a ne
gro named Nose, at Abbeville, Ala, in the
Eufaula Natire. 1t will be recollected that
the crime for which Nose was burned was the
murder of his master -
A large concourse of people was assembled
at Abbeville, numbering from four to five thou
sand. The negro was taken from the Jail by
the guard no opposition was offered by the
sheriff. The place was arranged before the
negro arrived. A green pine stake was set in
the ground firmly, and around that pile of
fat pine was arranged, in diameter about six
feet, and about four feet high. He was bound
head and feet to the pole, and before fire was
placed to the pile, the wretch made the con-
fession that be had murdered his master, but
would not have done it had it not been for a
white man. He made some other confessions,
duplicating a white man and another negro in
the affair.
"Our informant says that when he left the
FIRE had already consumed his hand, legs and
feet, and that they were piling on more wood

A FUGITIvE SLAVE Casa colored man
named MICHAEL BRowN, was arrested in Phil
adelphia last week, by JAMES CRossIN and
JOHN JENKINS, Deputy United States Mar
shals, charged with being q fugitive slave be-
longing to WIN II. GArcHELL, of Baltimore
A hearing was had before DAVID PAUL BRowN,
jr., Slave Commissioner for the Eastern Dis
trict Of Pennsylvania. The son of GArCHELL
swore positively to the identity of the colored
man, who, it seems, ran away from his reputed
owner some five years since. After the exam
ination of several witnesses, Mr. Slave Com
missioner Brown delivered over the fugitive
to the tender mercies of GArcHELL and on
being heavily manaced he was taken by a
posse Of officers to the Prime street depot, and
from thence to Baltimore.

WALKERS CAUSE DEspERArE-The latest in

clearly to be Inexperienced that Gen. Wal
ker's position is now desperate one. Posi-

scarcely possible. We see no such hope for
him, now that the Costa Rlcans are in posses
sion of Greytown, and have thus cut him off
from all communication with the Atlantic

Bsr A curious case has just been decided
by the Supreme Court of Penn'a. Washing
ton Mccartney, President Judge in the Nor
Hampton district, died just three months be-
fore the last general election. The law is, that
in case of the death of President Judge,
Orer three months previous, a new election
shall take place the same fall Gov Pollock
appointed Henry d. Maxwell to fill the vacan-
cy until Oct, 1851. The Democrats of the
District, however, cOntended for new cleo
ton, and cast large number of votes for
John K Findlay to Gil the vacancy. The
Governor refused to commission him-some
recognized Maxwell, and some Findlay-and
the consequence was, no courts were heN-
They finally submitted the case to the Supreme
Court, which construed the law literally to the
day, and Maxwell is recognized as Judge un-
til next October'S election.

TRIAL AND ACQUITTAL OF IRAAC SHURLoCK
FOR THE MURDER OF PHILIP j. CLAwGEs-Con
siderable excitement was created in the city of
Philadelphia last week, growing out of the tr-
al of Mr. Isaac Shurlock for the murder of
Philip j. Clawges. The affair occurred on the
evening of the 5th of last November. Shur
lock shot Clawges at the corner of Seventh
and Chestnut streets, and when arrested, al
legged that Cawgcs had seduced his wife, and
ruined his happiness Mrs. S is represented
as being a very handsome woman, and had
been married about four years. Her husband
was employed in the store of Clawges, and in
this way became acquainted with her aud was
in the habit of paying frequent friendly visits
to the house. 1t appears that upon one of
these occasions, in the absence of her husband,
ne succeeded in administering to her an OPT
ate, and thereby accomplished his purpose
Some three weeks after the affair occurred,
Mrs. S. informed her husband and mother of
what had happened. From the testimony, it
appeared that from that time up to the time
he committed the murder, Shurlock had not
slept or taken any refreshment except glass
Of liquor A plea of insanity was set up by
his counsel, and it was shown that it had ex-
isted in the family for years. The case occu-
pied the attention of the court for some four
days and resulted on Saturday last, in ver-
dict of not guilty" The announcement of
the verdict was received with tumultuous shouts
and applause by those in attendance, and the
most intense excitement prevailed both in and
outside of the courtroom

in the first place, DIR. c. w. GLEASON, the lee
turer who lectured in this place. and after

the Doctor been in Tennessee during the last
