Dear Sin— This morning, at 9 o’elock, the jury in the case of the People vs. Thomas Thorn, indicted for the mur- der of Elisha Wilson, came into Court with a. ver- dict of guilty, and Thorn was remanded to prison. Another jury were then empanelled for the trial of Mrs. Louisia Wilson, also indicted for the murder of her late husband, Elisha Wilson, and the trial is now in progress before the Supreme Court of Maine. Present, Chief Justice Whitman and associates Sheply and Tenny. Counsel for government, Otis L. Bridges, Attorney General,and Augustine Haines, County Attorney. For Mrs. W., Messrs. Howard and Osgood. Mr. Haines opened for the People by defining the crime of murder, and produced askull. He said he should pase that Elisha Wilson was about forty ears of age, and stupid ; that Thorn was about 21; rs. W. about 20. That Thorn was engaged to be married to Mrs. W. about two years ago, but that Wilson married her while Thorn was at sea Mrs. Wilson sat in, the prisoner’s box, looking through the irongrating placed upon the door—iron bars round, square, pointed, curved—the ten of dia- monds ; a remnant of barbarism; a reproach to the present age. Mrs. W. isa pretty woman, fair com- roe auburn hair plainly parted, and almost hid by her black bonnet ; contour pleasant, innocent— indicating much of the simplicity which Yankees at- tach to the word clever. You will have seen the evidence of the three doctors, McKeen, Cushman and Lincoln, in the case of Thorn, and therefore I omit to copy it from ie notes. The Doctors were permitted to fiir each other testify, while the other witnesses were sent out of Court, under an officer, and perhaps to pri son. Samuel Toothacher, called by District Attorney— Lives in Harpswell when at home, between thirty and forty rods from Elisha Wilson’s late residence. On the Sth Feb. between 3 and 4 A.

Mrs. W. said she sent Thorn to call witness; she told wit- ness she was frightened; thought her husband was faint; did not know what she did (Counsel for Go- vernmentask leading questions without note or com- ment from Court or opposite counsel.) Saw a piece of cotton in wound about as big as is used in an inkstand or small vial; asked Mrs. W. how it came there; she said she put it there to stop the blood; no pillows nor bolsters on bed; some kind of cloth under head of deceased; not much blood; little pud- die as big as a dollar; began to shave deceased; turned up his head when blood gushed out; gave up raizor to another man; witness shaved no more; blood upon deceased as low as waist; not lower; witness probed wound with shears or scissors halt’ an inch wide; end broken off square; half an inch wide ; no blood on clothes of Mrs. W. or Thorn; looked particularly and saw none ! Such Mr. Bennett, is literally the testimony of the prosecution. I have not time to copy more frommy notes, which are full, before the mail closes. The counsel have proved Mrs. W. a dutiful and af- fectionate wife. If they have much more proof of this sort in reserve, they will prove her an angel.— More to-morrow. National Academy of Design, Onentering the Sculpture Gallery, we were pained to perceive the paucity of works in this highest and noblest walk of art. That such shouldbe the case, however, isno matter ef surprise, when we consider how poorly it 1s encouraged. The United States have already produced artists in this department who rank at Ngee: equally with the most distinguish- ed of their European cotemporaries. This speaks well for the genius of the country, but little tor 1s taste, when we know that such men are forced to seek a foreiga market for the reward ot their ta- lents. The fact cannot be disguised that there is but little true feeling for this department of art, even among those who aspire to be considered patrons and cognoscenti, and, with the great mass of people, the finest piece of sculpture excites less admiration than the veriest daub that disgraces the walls of an exhi- bition room, especially if that daub be a portrait in which an opportunity is afforded ot speculating upon the likeness, and marvelling at the wondrous fidel- ity with whieh a wart upon the nose of the original is transferred to canvass. In this we fall far short of most European nations —in France, Italy, Germany, Austria, and even among the unimaginative Hol- landers, we tind a fair proportion of sculpture gracing their exhibitions, and an ardent love of it pervading all classes. The statues of illustrious men adorn their puolic squares—the immortality of actual greatness is wedded to the immortality of the ideal. But with us, even if with great exertion a subscrip- tion be raised for the purpose of erecting a statue to a distinguished countryman, the porular taste is displeased if the work partakes at all of an epic cha- racter. Thus the sublime cenception of Greenough in his “ Washington,” is ridiculed rather than ap- preciated. Washington never wore a Roman toga, nor went with his arms bare, says the muititude; they would have had him in 4 starch uniform coat, bufl breeches, and boots. They cannot conceive that the statues of the great should be fashioned for posterity, and not for the ever varying and ca- pricious tastes of a few fleeting generations. The de- sign of Greenough, in his statue, was that future ages might recognize in contemplating it, not the fashion of a garment, but the classic embodyment of that genom mind and patriotic heart which moulded the destinies of a mighty nation. He wished no lower or meaner associations to mingle with the proud and lofty retrospections it should produce—that for centuries hence, when the con ventional forms and habits of our present society should be known but in dim and obscure tradition, an American, gazing on the work, might say—“This is worthy to image Washington. {t is absurd to confine the artist to a mechani- cal imitation of the actual. The poetry of na- ture, though it be given to few to penetrate it, is not less existent than its materiality. Why do we call hakspeare a great depicter of human alnraeee and passion? Did he not illustrate them through the me- dium of the ideal? Men and women in real life do not speak in measure or in rhyme—yet Shakspeare makes them do so, and yet we do not question their fidelity to nature. From our soul we pity the man who so enshrouds himself in the chilly mantle of a false utilitarianism, as to shut out the sense of that “ideal,” which is alike the source of the purest pers and the best proof of his immortality. ut we fearwe are digressing too far—and will therefore proceed to our direct subject, which, truth to say, may be very summarily treated; inasmuch Me net are but three specimens of sculpture exhi- ted. No. 289.—Bost or a Grextieman—-Hiram Powers, (H_)—This is a finely chisseled head, worthy of the repatation of its author. No. 265—Bust or a Cutty or EB. Parmiry, Esq No. 300 do—T. Batten —Mr. Batten is unknown to us by reputation, but we think that he isdestined to be both known and admired. These busts are very delicately and beautifully handled. There are few works of their class with which they might not com- pare tavorably. We trust Mr. Batten will persevere in the high department of art he has chosen—but the stuff of which martyrs are made is rare—and certainly an American sculptor who lives at home must be considered one. We shall speak of the drawings and the minia- tures, of which last there are quantum suf., on another occasion. Mr. Eprror:— | Wiil you permit me to inquire, through the medi- um of your valuable paper, of the different emi grantsocieties the object of their establishment, if it be not to protect their countrymen frem imposition and wrong On their firstarrival in a land of stran. gers? It the object of these societies be really humane and philanthropic, why is it we see the un- suspecting emigrant, for the want of timely infor- mation, coming in an authentic form, robbed and luadered by the hordes of runners and boardiog- house keepers that immediately surround him on his landing, to the exclusion of every honest man. A cheap conveyance to the Far West, whither they are mostly bound, is of vital importance to them, and suitenle exertions on the part of these societi in giving their countrymen the earliest information of the prices at which they can be conveyed to the interior, would save in the aggregate, in passage alone, more than sixty thousand dollars per annum to the emigrants passing through the canals of this state.

Mr. Graham leased the premises to one Yates for one year,with a privilege of four years more, at a rent of $500 and the taxes. Yates afterwards let the premises to Waller, and the plaintitt sought to make Waller liable in an action of covenant for these taxes on the ground that Waller had received an assignnment of the said lease, and the issue was whether Waller was the assignee under the said lease, which was denied. Mr. Waller insisted that he had duly’ performed his agreement with Yates, and that Graham had no claim against him in the matter. This cause had been tried once before, and the Jury could not agree. ‘The Jury on this trial gave their verdict for the defend- ‘m would he Brosh, 71 Clinton street, retired to rest about 1 ‘clock a» well as usual, ane afew migutes beto te exclaun “Mow Brash, Mee.

Some property fell to the widow or her children by the death of Sharpe. !t was alleged that Cropsy got this pro. erty, by his marriage, and Jost it all in speculation, &e. he deiendant, one of the children, boarded in the family, and tl ction is brought to recover for said board. It was claimed by the defence that a portion ef the property referred to of right belonged to the defendant, but had been squandered by the plaintiff, and that on this ground the defendant is not liable. The case i Later From Monrrvipro.—By an arrival at Philadelphia, we have news up {to the I%h of March. The contending forces remained pretty much as they were by previous accounts, and no fears were entertained of Oribe being able to carry the town, either by assault or starvation; on the contrary, he himself was rather between two fires, having the late President, Gen Rivera, with a strong force in his rear, and in front the army of General Paez, of 6000 men in the city, ready to re- pel an attack, orto make a sortie in co-operation with Rivera. There had been some skirmishing, in which a few lives were lost, but no general ac- tion had been fought.

May 11—-Trial for Stealing? a ForcePump.—-A negro named William Henry Jackson, was tried on a charge of petit larceny for stealing the chamber of pump, valued'at $25, from Theodosius F. Secor & evidence was conclusive. The jury convicted him, and the Court sent him up for six months. i Charge of Stealing Money—A fresh looking Irish irl named Mary McCarty, was tried on a charge of petit larceny for stealing $40 in money from the trunk of James Mahony, sailor’s boarding house keeper, of No. 51 Cherry street, on the 22d of April last. Mahoney stated that she confessed taking the money, and returned $39 on a pro- mise by him that he would not prosecute her. Andrew Harrison, for prosecution, stated that Mahony teld him a the time the girl returned the money, that he owed her for three month’s wages at $5 per month, and would pay her out of it. ‘The defence called no witnesses, but set up asapleathat she took the money because he owed her wages, and also that her confession of taking the money was obtained under a promise, that, in the eye of the law should shield her fiom conviction. The Recorder charged that alarceny had doubt been committed, but the pro- mise held out tohe 7 Mahony in making the confession, | terprize had been despatched to protect them.

Precocious Depravity—An Irish boy named James Meigham, aged 14 years, and a mulatto boy named Joseph Jackson, aged 13, were tried on a charge of burglary in the third degree for entering the newly finished house corner of 224 street and Lexington avenue, on Sunday Later From Mexico.—An extract from a pri- vate letter, dated Saltillo, April 2, says :—‘* are void of news, save the certainty of seventeen of the Texian prisoners having been shot at the Salado and the barbarous act commit'ed there. It seems that one of the unfortunates received two balis through his body, and fell, as it was au d, morning, the 12th of March, and taking off, with intent to | derd among the rest of his companions. Alter the remove, eleven brass door knobs, five spindles and a | butchery was over, a sentinel was placed to guard lock. It was proved that Meigham opened one of the | the bodies; when night came on, he observed the window blinds of the basement with his hand and then broke a pane ef glass with a stone and entered the house, where they were caught in the act of attempting to bag theknobs and lock. ‘The jury found them both guilty, and the court sent them to the House of Refuge. The way to Trick a Tailor.—A fellow named Warren Simons, was tried for petit larceny in obtaining a suit of clothes, worth $19, from Gumbert Hellman, tailor, of 42 Broome street, under the following circumstances : The accused came to the tailoring shop of the complainant and desired to purchase a suit of clothes, which were car ried toa baker’s shop at 26 Broome street, at his request. He then said that he wished his brother could be allowed totry them on; and the German consenting, the accused esca;ed with the suit. He was arrested seve ii afterwards, and escaped. The clothing w: recovered by the complainant at Levy’ ker’s shop, Where the brother of the accused al ed to pawn them for $1 50. A girl who said her name was Maria Scriber, and that she tended the cake shop for George W- Simons, at 26 Broome street, here came forward ond stated that she was present when the tailor came ty the cake shop, and he allowed the accused to try oa the clothes, and went away and came back in about a half an heur afterwards. Several inquiries were made by the court asto the rearon why the brother pawned the clothes and Acting District Attorney Strano remarked his wituess laft the stand, that he thought there ‘were other things done at the house where she lived, besides selling 8. (Laughter) The jury found him guilty, and the Court sentenced him to the penitentiary for six months, remarkin, the same time, that that was the extent ofthe law, and that they believed that his brother George Simons, the baker, wasno better than he was. Grand Larceny —A. somewhat notorious young thief named Adolphus W. Stewart, aged only 15 yrars, and another named James Johnson, ae 18, were tried for entering the house of Dr. R. H.Maclay ,4: Broadway, on the evening of the 21th of April, and stealing jewelry, &e., valued at abont $200. A portion of the stolen goods were found in possession of the boy Stewart, who entered a plea of guilty by his counsel. The jury returned a verdiet of guilty, and the Court sent Stewart to the House of Re'uge, and Johnson to the state prison forthree years. Assault and Battery with intent to kill.—A colored man named Reuben Moore, was tried for an assault and batte. ry with intent to kill a colored woman named Su Crawford, of Little Water street. It appeared that Moore had lived with her as man and wife for the past four or five years, and her husband coming home, she told him she was going to live with him, and desired the accused togoaway. Hethen said he was glad of it, asked her to give him some money to go to Philadelphia. This she sai? she would endeaver to do, and at his request she allowed him to remain in a room in the house. A day or two following, while she was standing at the bar in the house, he said to her, “ I've a great mind to kill you,” and then seized her round the neck and stabbed her in the side and abdomen sevaral times with a knife, cutting her clothes through and through and her body in one instanc: nearly half an ineh in depth. The knife was not pi sented, and it was alleged by Dr. James Johnson, who examined the wound, that he thought it must have been inflicted with one of small size. The defence contended on this point, that therefore there was not evidence sufi cient to justify the jury in convicting him with intent to kill, but merely of an assault and battery, which verdict they rendered after half an hour’s absence, and the Court sent him to the penitentiary for one year Stealing Boots —A German named pot, Ripeh, a shoegaker, was trieo on a charge of Grand Larceny, in ig five pair of gentlemen's boots, five odd boots and pe ‘of patent leather shoes valued st $43, from the store of Richard James, 231 Broadway. It was proved by defence that the accused bought the boots from a boy for sixpence who said he hact found them in the street. “The jory therefore returned a verdict of acquitte: and the ac- cused was discharged. ‘Assault and Battery.—Jobn Hallett was tried ffor an as- sault and battery on Joseph Waller, at the Americon Mu- scum, on the 9th of February last. It appeared in evi- dence that the complainant went to the Museum with his cousin, mother and wife, and taking a stand in the pas- ge way of the lectnre room, obstructing the view of persons seated behind them, and refusing to remove his position, Hallett, whose business it was.to keep order, laid hold of him and palled him down the passage way. ‘The defence contended that in standing up, as the com. plainant did, he obstructed the view of a number of per- sons in the rear, and therefore that Hallett was justified in insisting upon his being’seated. ‘The Jury took a diferent view of the case and found Hallett guilty of assault and battery, but recommended him to the mercy of the Court — then »*tourned till this morning at eleven o'clock. sentinel asleep, made himself ready, and put off. Next morning the guard went to take them up tor burial, found there was one missing, and having seena bloody trail, the bloodhounds followed it, and soon came up with the poor unfortunate man, who was brought back and immediately shot 4 second time.” Literary Notice Sovrucatr’s Travets.—D.
