Gen. Walker IN Prisoner.

Gen Walker and about two hundred troops
under his command, surrendered rs prisoners OF
war to Com. Paulding, short time since. The
Cen was allowed to go to New York, and the
soldiers were. taken to southern port. This event
has created great excitement. Secretary Cuss
declares that the arrest was without authority

should be done. But who that has read the bro
ken and generally prejudced biographical sketch
es of OLIVER CROMWELL and the interests which
he represented, does not thirst for greater knowl
edge OF Englands great Reformer And who
that has studied the history of our own Liberty,
and discovered that the germ first took root un-
der the powerful and we'll directed efforts OF the
English Reformers, and was transplanted by our
Puritan fathers into our own country, where u
vigorous growth could be secured, does not desil }
TO learn still more of the religious and political
blessings with which we, as Nation are SO high
ly favored
The price of atlmittance can be barrier against
the attendance of no one, for it is but nominal be-

penses incurred by those whose services have been
80 generously bestowed upon US.
Again we say, let the house be well filed, and
let all who cherish the well bsing of our town. On

WoNTHANG WoMEs.-The Lancaster (Ps. J
Examiner, referring to Il recent conviction OF
woman for poisoning her husband, says ;
" Although the prisoner has been found gull
ty Of a capital offence, and may be sentenced,
it is not likely she will be executed. The
Court merely sentences to be hung at such
times MS the Executive Of the State may ap-
point, and remtnds the condemned to prison
to await that time. O, late years, ii has
b9en ustomlry in PENN ylvania. in cases
where women have been sentenced to death,
for the GcyenoF not to hume the day of ex-
ecuion, and thus, vir.uaiy, the sentence is
one Of imprisonment for life. This. we pre-
sume, will BIZ the result in this case. There
are now. we believe, in Pennsylvania, seven
women undcr the sentence Of death, several
of whom were convicted many years ago"

On Friday last an old man, and his little son,
twelve years of age, wers brought by railroad
from Ottawa, having been sentenced to the
Penitentiary for the crime of larceny. The
claEkng of the chains which bound father to

other passengers with sympathy for the son
and scorn and contempt for the father. To
make the picture more repulsiye, the wife and

the same offence, she having been the lead
