Aaron Rurr,s Tombstone.

In Parton's Life of Aaron Burr we find
the following in regard to the mysterious"
stone that marks his burial place. We ex-
tract as follows
AS all in the life of Aaron Burr had some
thing OF strangeness and popularity, it is not
surprising perhaps, that stone could not be
placed over his grave except in an extraor-
binary manner. Some efforts were made,
and some money was subscribed, soon after
his death, to procure a suitable monument,
but the project failed, through the inattention
of an agent. For nearly two years the spot
where he lay was unmarked, when one NOR
ing it was discovered that small, very sun
stantial and not expensive monument of
granite and marble had been placed, during
the night, over his remains. The Cemetery
at Princeton is situated in somewhat thick
ly inhabited lane, and is overlooked, in every
part by people living upon its borders. The
principal gate is kept locked. No one in the
town saw the monument erected, or knew, or
knows, anything whatever respecting it. Nor
was there any stone-cutter in the vicinity
competent to execute such piece of work
NO relative to Col Burr, nor any one of my
numerous informants, explain the mystery
The person who did the pious deed is known,
however, and lives. Need saw that To a wo-
mans liberal hand Burr owes the stone that
commentaries his name

Kansas Matters in Congress.
New York, Jan. 30

The Tines correspondent says The lat
est canvass of the Senate gives reason to fear
that Lecompton will have majority of in
that body, including both the New Jersey
Senators, Jones Of Iowa, and the protested
Senators from Indiana.
Private dispatches received here, state pos
itively that Calhoun has backed out of his
rejection of the returns sent to Gov. Denver
The administration comedies that the Penn
sylvana Legislature will vote against the Le-
compton Constitution. If the direct aues-
ton is reached, their friends design to smoth
err the resolutions in the Select Committee to
which they are referred.
The 1ribnne's correspondent says: The
Douglas Democrats held a caucus last night
and counted the Anti-Lecompton force in the
House. They make out a majority of seven a.
gainst Lecompton butthey recon upon mem
be!s who, l know, will not vote with them
As things now stand, the Administration will
have ten majority in the House on TIE Kan
sas question. The Union cracks the whip
vigorously this morning, and the straggers
are falling into the ranks.

The End Of One Rochester Case.

The trial of Mr.. j. R. Robertson, charged
with the crime of an attempt to poison his
wife, has resulted in the acquittal of the de-
PENDANT. OF course the Jury believed that
young Doctor Beigler formed the plot to ruin
and imprison the defendant. The wife of the
defendant, and the friends of both parties,
have stood by him in full confidence Of tile
wickedness of the charge, and, SO far as we
can judge, the popular sentiment of Mr..
Robertson. The Buffalo .4dceHiser gives
some admirable comments on this case. It
says:
Now that the trial is over, it is a proper
time to look back upon the causes which
have led to its events and may have had no
small share in begetting that spirit of intli-
que and crime which is so rife in the CITY of
Rochester.
Some years ago. the elder Beiger was en-
gagged in practice in the city OF Rochester,
and was the family physician of many of the
"best people, there. His name was not then
without blot. There were rumors, perhaps
untrue, accusing him of the murder of for
mer wife, and it was known that he had been
engaged some time previously, to young Ia
dy in Albany, where he had wife yet living
in Germany. The sudden death of the wife
and the disruption of the engagement by the
young lady, had given rise to many unpleas-
ant reports. Nevertheless, there was nothing
tangible, and Beigler was taken into the full
confidence in Rochester. Subsequently he
commits the crime of arson, and is sent to
| State Prison.
| The disgrace of this crime did not prevent
him from still retaining the confidence of his
patients. Delicate and pious ladies' sought
the felOns cell for medical advice, and the
scOundrel was finally pardoned out on petit
tons OF the good society of Rochester,
Judges, clergymen, bankers, and merchants
Joined in the application for his release, and,
fresh from the cropped head and stripped
clothes, this snuffling, hypocritical victim Of
persecution came back to Rochester, and was
again the medical deity of the town. AT
that time new rumors of his licentiousness
were constantly in circulation, but they ap-
parently increased his popularity. He was
again arrested for most revolving and helm
Gus crime, and again sent to State prison.
Still did the fair ladies of Rochester cling to
their pet Esculapius, and among them Mrs
Robertson is found declaring that she "can
never recover without DIR. Beigler's tine.
lures" Her husband and brother, moved by
her entreaties, find means to bail the Grimm
al, and advance large amounts in the vain ef
for to procure his acquittal.
The moral of this history is simple. The
relation of the physician to his patient is one
which requires integrity and honor. No re-
putation of professional talent or skill should
induce man to employ scoundrel as his
family physician. And so long as man SO
notorious as Begles was the sworn friend OF
the "best families in Rochester" there is no
