Protestant Episcopalianism and Pusey Ca- tholicism—Father Webb's Zealous Protes- tantism. We are now over head and earsimmersed in that fiercest of al! fierce controversies—a religious one. Father Webb isa burning and a shining light on the one side, and Bishop Oaderdonk is a farthing rush light on the other, Father Webb is now invested with so sacred a character as that of “‘ Defender of the Fuith by the Grace of God,” but we neverthe- less throw ourselves as a shield before the Bishop, and being full to the throat of religious zeal our- selves, we will chop logic and wield the drum eccle- siastic until we have shamed our pious adversary into a confession of his errors, and an application for absolution, and until we have aroused all who love Zion within the vast region through which we circulate, to the watch towers of the church, to guard it from desecration. But first let us survey our auxiliaries. We find the two forces thus arrayed in the Convention on the resolutions which have led to this fierce war- fare:— THE VOTE OF THE CLERGY. AYES, Rev.

Now, however pious Father Webb may be—how ever much he may mortify the flesh for the good of his soul—we chuckle with delight to find that we standin such a far more glorious and lengthened rank of piety and learning—enough to outbalance any little deficiencies wherewith we may be eharge- able. And inthe name of ourselves and of our al- lies, we solemnly protest against the dangerous doc- trines of the holy Father of the Courier, for Christ’s Church is one and indivisible, and its polity isthe same here and elsewhere, now and forever. It is not of this earth, earthy; and therefore is not tobe mou'ded and distorted to suit corrupt politicians. The changing forms of earthly governments are not to effect changes in that which is as enduring as the rock of ages. The Church, under an earthly mo- narchy, remains the same when rebellion has estab- lished a republic. The religious locotocoism of Fa- ther Webb is subversive of Holy Mother Church, upsets St. Peter from the rock on which he avowed the Church was built, and forcibly dispossesses that sainted Aposile of the keys of the straight gate, to transfer them to some-time-hence-to-be-canonized Father Webb. This is our exordium, but as we shall go into this subject so as to entitle us ‘0 cano- nization hereafter, we must, for effective future ac~ tion, give Father Webb’s Bull, which he fulminated yesterday, that its fallacy and foily may hereafter be made apparent. This document will show, too, how necessary it is thatwe buckle on the armor in defence of the Bishop, the church, the clergy, and the faith Tur Cosine Scene in tHe Convention or THe Pro. Testant Eriscorat Cuurcn or tHe Eastean Diocese or New Youx.—li we know ourself, we can say in cerity, that would to God we could draw a veil last act of the Bishop of this diocese at the clos convention last evening. It is not that we feai permanent welfare of the church from this extraordinary act on the part of the Bishop, but because we are grieved to perceive one for whom we have no other feeling than that of esteem, thus outrage the rights of one of the most respectable bodies of men ever convened on this continent in on unwarranted assumption of authority, which was far more in keeping with the ects of Pope Hildebrand, than with that cnaracter for christian meekness and re Spect for the laity, which has ever heretofore been exhi- bited by the Bishops o! the Protestant Episcopal Church in England and the United States. We grieve, too, be- cause, not content to fail alon«, he appears determined to drag down with him a gairent band of highly intellectual ant evangelical clergymen, who, prompted by a false spirit of self devotion to their spiritual iveder, are pre- pared to permit tne to misiead their judgmente. The proceedings of yesteriay will bs found in another place; and it is only to the closing scene we would now allude. It appears thatin tne address of the B pon Thursday, he very warmly recommended to the favor 0: the convention and oi the laity of this diocese, the " Dio- cesan Organ,” the Cuurchman of this city—as contaiving sound doctrines of Episcopal fsith. Tiat paper, as our readers well kuow, an ultra Puseyiie concern, ond edited in a spirit of intolerance, and we may add, vulgar 1 who presume to differ with it, dis- we of religion, and whieh is well co) Culstet to bring the blush of shame on the cheek of every professing chi in the land, we care not to what senomination Bishop Hughes and : the country, would shrink irom recoguizing a press edited with’ sush ¢ Spirit, as belonging to the Koman Catholic faith; and Zions, Louisville, St. John’s, Cold Spring Har- bor, St. John's, Troy, St. Lukes’, Rossville, ‘s, Setanket, 'y.

That such a press, edited by one so regardless of the common courtesies of life, should have been proclaimed ee! the Bishop as his organ, «nd recommended to the ofthe diocese for its sound doctrine and Christian was a source o! deep regret to the op’s best friends of the convention, ond looked upon by the Anti-Puseyite portion of that body, as personally offensiveto them, at the same time that it was giv C endorsement of convention itself, to the papal and abominable he- resies it weekly puts forth. They consequently deemed ita sacred duty which they owed to themselves aad the laity of this diocese, to dissent from the recommendation ot the Bishop, and pretest against his act being looked upon as the act of the convention. In orp - this se ig apg seg @ formal rote ‘was prepared and sign y & large body of the cle: and laity; and after the convention had fivished its other business, John Duer, Esq., rose in_the most respectiul manner and stated to the presiding officer of the conven- tion, that he held in his hand a paper which he begged leave to read and hand to the chair. He said that he in- vited no discussion upon it, but desired that alter being «ead it might be placed on the minutes of the convention as the act of the and laity whose names were ap- pended to it, without committing avy other parties what- ever. His manner and tone, a8 well as his language, were respectful; and he endeavored to impress upon all who heard him that ‘this proceeding was intended solely as an act of duty to those who had united in it, in order thot they might not be considered responsible for the re- commendation of the address, which their silence would necessarily imply. He then read the protest, which was as near as we could hear, in the following wo “ Whereas, the Bishop of this diocese, in the address de. livered to this con’ ention, expressed in strong terms of endation, his approbation of the course and senti- ments of the religious paper called the Churchman, pub- lished in the city ef New York; and whereas, the under. signed members of the clergy and laity now in attend- ce on this convention, entertain a sincere conviction, the doctrines maintained in the said religious paper, and the spirit and tone in which the same is conducted, are such as not to entitle it to the stpport of Protestant Episcepalians—therefore, they do most respecttully dis- sent from the opinion expressed in the said address, and request this, their dissent, may be publicly read to this conveution, and he entered on the minutes of the proceed- ings thereof.” The Bishop rose ina state of excitement but little be. coming his sacred character, and inthe most imperious mannet—a manner which would done honor to Henry the Eighth—delivered himself as nearly as our reporter couldtake his words, as follows : “I am bere in the double capacity as presiding officer of this Convention, and the Bishop of the Diocese; and it is a matter of surprise to me that gentlemen who have been so tenacious of their own bh en should be eo ne- jectful of the rights of others. Iwill receive any re- glectful of the rights of oth 1 y spectful communication, which the clergy and laity of my diocese may hand in'to me in my individual capscity, but I will not allow such a document as that to go upon the minutes, and to be made a subject of discussion. i will not suffer such a thing to go on the journal and come before this house. I will only pardon the gentleman who has offered it, by supposing that he could not have fore. seen the position in which the Bishop is placed by it. “T will not receive such a document. I appeal to the pity, to the good sense, to the effectionof the clergy and aity, and if they will not sustain me, I will throw myself pon a higher pow cessary, such an in Never did we witn ind resist even unto death, if ne- n of my rights.” uch a scene before in the house of Gad, and we hope and trust never to witness such another. The kingly and imperative manner—for red “every inch a king”—the astounding his bold and daring assumption of auth every man to look upon his neighbor with astonishment For one moment every body stood aghast; and then burst forth a shout of applause mingled with the clapping of hands, hisses and groans, such as never before were heard within those sacred walls. Tammany Hall in its most agitated mot ts never presented a more disgraceful scene, but it was only fora few seconds. The recollec- tion that they were in the house of God, promptly calmed the troubled waters; and then Mr. Duer again rose in the most respectful man: But the demon who appeared to have tsken such entire possession of our worthy Bishop had not yet departed from him; and convulsed with anger, trembling in every limb, and his face pale with excite. ment, he exclaimed, try. B All are ina happy state in this country. The eun shines brightly—the rivers run swiftly—Broadway, the gteat thoroughfare of America, is crowded with fashion and poverty—the theatres are filled every night—bank stocks are going up—the crops are large, and the future is full of hope and humbug. Verily, however, this country was never in a finer condition than at this moment. We have abundant crops of breadstuffs—plenty of cotton— plenty of money—plenty of intellect—and courage enough to resent and resist any insult that may be offered by any power on the face of the globe. But to be serious. Let any one read the com- mercial articles which follow this for a true state of the wealth and importance of this country. After that nothing more need be said. Horrible Atrocities—Society in General. Society inthis country will soon descend to the level of that of Europe. Emigration from England has lately been so great, and some of which of such a nature, as to corrupt, most fearfully, a portion of our own people. The new extradition law between this country and Great Britain will, however, soon put a stop to this. We have this morning one murder, one attempted murder, two suicides, and one attempted suicide to mention. The first on our list occurred in Schenectady last Friday morning, between six and seven o’clock. Mr Andrews, formerly a gardener in this city, but lately a fruit seller in Schenectady, cut the throat of hia wife ina mostshocking manner. The knife entered between the jugular vein and the spinal cord, leaving a gash five inches Iong and two inches deep. Yet hopes were entertained of her recovery. Andrewshas been arrested and is now in jail. It is said that he even attempted his own life after his attempt to send his wife prema- turely into eternity. They had three children. He appeared perfectly sane at the time, and had a load- ed rifle by him to use in case of necessity. That, however, was secured. It is supposed that jealousy was the cause. The next was a murder that occurred in Canaan, Maine. The Yankee Blade, published in Gardiner, gives the following particulars of this hornble af- fait During the Exhibitionjof Raymond & Co.’s Menagerie, at Canaan on Saturday evening, a most disgraceful brawl occurred between a gang of dis- orderly citizens and the men connected with the Menagerie, which resulted in the murder of Jeffer- son Spaulding, a citizen of that town Spaulding was twice struck in the head with a piece of iron by one of the men setto keep guard about the tent and his scull beatenim.” He lingered, however, ti! Sunday night, when he died, leaving a wife and three children to mourn his ioss. ‘e have been unable to gather the particulars of this me- lancholy affair, but we understand that Spauld- ing was a peaceable, orderly, and well disposed citizen, not engaged in the riotous proceed- ings of the evening, and that the blows which caused his death were almost totally unprovoked. The savage deed caused intense excitement at Ca- naan; a large bedy of the citizens armed them: selves with guns, and hurried to the scene of the “Sit down sir—take your seat! I won’t heara word! Any apology you may desire to offer, will be received at a proper time and in another place :” Mr. Durex attempted to proceed, but the Bishop again burst forth in his langusge of passion; and with a spirit of forbearance which did him honor, Mr Duer submit- ted in silence to the bold and dangerous assumption by the Bishop of more than Papal authority. Heretofore, the enemies of Puseyism have only surmised at the aim and object of thi who advocate the doctrines of the tractarians ; but the Bishop has left nothing to be infer. red hereafter. He boldly taken “the buli by the horns,” and declaring himself infallible—the Pope per se —has hurled at the Laity his fiercest anathema. Presi- ding over a body of the People’s Representatives, assem- dled to lei for the church, he tells them that the convention is his—that he and he only, will determine on what business and what resolutions they shall act— what questions shali be submitted to them and what sub. jects they are probibited from considering! This he ways, is by virtue ot his office of Bishop; and that office he professes to hold from the Almighty himeelf ! We ask the reader to pause and reflect upon this arro gant proceeding of the Bishop, and view it dispossionately in its whole length and breadth. Being Bishop ot the Diocere, he is by the Constitution made the presiding of ficer of that body, and expressly empowered to give one vote, and one only. In short, except that he is the presi- ding officer, his power ie no greater than that of the hnm- blest Clergyman of the Diocese. The convention isa legislative body; and when the presiding officer has taken his seat in that capacity, he possesses no more au- therity than the Speaker oi our House of Assembly — His powers and duties are precisely analogous. If a reso- lution be offered for the consideration of the 'conven- tion, has he the right to say, “I will not recelve and submit itto the convention ;” or if an amendment to the consttution be offered, has he a right to say be- cause he does not @ | iid it, he will not receive and submit it to the consideration of the body over which he presides? Surely not; vecause if he is to be the sole judge of what proposition shail be submitted to the con- ion, it is worse than idle for that body to assemble. if he may de this, hus he the authority to say thet because he does not approve of a protest against his re- commendati he will not receive it and permit the con. vention to dispose of it as they think proper 7 It would be a waste of time to point out the gross and insulting assumption of authority so imperiously put forth by the op on this occasion. It was monstrous, and cannot fail to rouse every Protestant Episcopalian in the United States, to ‘he danger which threatens the church. The Bishop bas now closed the door to all reconciliation between him and the laity of the diocese ; and an appeal tothe General Convention becomes inevitable. He has very imprudently made the issue, and the laity have no alternative but to abide the result. Now, however, that Pureyirm bas t:rown off its mask and stands before the world in all it d deformity, the laity owe a duty to themselves and the church which they may not neglect. In the coming elections every man who 18a candidate for veatryman, must openly avow his opinions in advance; and the Protestant Episcopalians mast one and all, fearlessly discharge their duty. Every vestry in the diocese will then b= anti-Paseyite; and every rector who countenances or sustains the Bishop in this daring act of usurpatien, must be made to feel that the laity *re not to be trifled with. Thus and thus only, can this ar rous heresy be nipped in the bud; and atkoagt it_ may leave us achurch almost without priests, Pusey- a will find itseif with a Bishop and clergy without a jaity. Cot. Jounson’s Visrr To THE East.—The old vete- ran intends to slip quietly through New York, it seems, and pass direct to Hartford. What means this? Is the cabbege garden to go unweeded? Does he scorn the favor of any of the democrats of these “dig ins?’ Or does he calculate on their allegiance without the asking? Perhaps he is act: ing with his usual magnanimity, and intends to decline poaching on Van Buren’s manor, confidert of success, nevertheless, without New Yok. There is as much purity in “ Oid Tecumseh,” as in all other politicians together, and this would be but characteristic of the old hero, if it is the motive which actuates him. He is not so regardless of Connecticut, however, for while he scorns Kinder- hook cabbages, he pounces like an eagle on a spar- row on Weathersfield onions. He leaves Wash- ington on the evening of the second of October, and intends to travel by the mail route to Hartford, and arrive there on the 4th or 5th, to witness a mili- tary parade, and join inthe review with Governor Cleveland. He will also embrace the occasion to cultivate the acquaintance of Col. Seymour, mem- ber of Congress elect. This isan adroit movement, as the election of President will ‘in all human pro- bab.lity go to the House of Representatives. There is much shrewdnees in the old warrior, and Richie never spoke a@ greater truth than when he confessed that Col. Johuson would give the party some trouble. He may perhaps trouble them to make him President. The many warm admirers of Col. Johnson may not, after all, permit him to slip through their fingers so easily, and for their guidance and inlormation we here state that he willarrive on Tuesday either by the afiernoon or night train from Philadelphia, and he must remain here that night. If he arrives by the eleven o’cluck train at night so much the better, for then he can be escorted to his Hotel by atorch light procession, and afterwards lulled in peacetul and happy slumbere by a serenade. Turn Ovt TaiLors in Boston.—A large meeting of tailors, tailoreases, and seampstresses, have been holding a large meeting in Faneuil Hall, Bostons tor the purpose of exposing the low prices paid them. Many speeches were delivered, and the meeting is suid to have been very enthusia: Pickxrocxets.—Several pickpcckets were arrested on board the steamboat New Havenfyesterdaymorn- ing, one of whom had about $300}in his possession. They had been operating professionally at the agri- cultural fair at New Haven. Dr. Brownie.—A letter rceived from « member of Dr. Brownlee’s family states that he is much bet ter, and that strong hopes are entertained of his re+ overy. murder, and several individuals connected with the menagerie were arres'ed. No clue to the author of the murder has been discovered. It is said, how- ever, that two of the men who were in the employ of Messrs. Raymond & Co., have fled. The two next, suicides, were in Ohio. Annexed are the facts relating to them :— Job Shaw, of Twinsburg, Summit county, Ohio, aged about 21 years, put an end to his existence on the night of the 23rd inst., by hanging. A corres- pondent at ‘Twineburg has forwarded us the follow- ing particulars of the melancholy event, gathered from the parents of the young man, with whom he resided. He eet his supper Thursday evening es usual, and about seven o’clock lett the house to go to some of the neighbors, asthe family supposed. The writer says, “ nothing inore was seen or heard of him until about six o’clock, Friday morning, when his mother found him hanging in an out-build- ing a few rods from the house, aliteless corpse, and to all appearance had been so some ten hours. The piece of rope with which he was suspended measured but 18 inches from the rafter to which it was tied to the noose around his neck. He held in one hand a straw from the thatched roof over his head, which I thivk he grabbed as he stepped off the timber on which he must have stood. The youog man was of temperate and industrious habits. Some dissatisfaction existed about family affairs, that made his appearance rather gloomy for afew days past, and a day or two ago he remarked that he was tired of living.” . David T. Gerard, aged 35, hung himself on a tree in Warren county, Ohio, on the 27th inst. The Le- banon Star states that Gerard bore a good mora! character, had been a school teacher for several years, was not considered deranged, though he was eccentric in his conduct and of misanthropic tem- perament. He prepared deliberately for the deed, willed his property, worth:some $1,500, to his mo- ther, wrote a letter saying that he was tired of life, aud a short notice of his own self-murder for inaer- tien in the Star, which were found in his hat.

The Italian Opera Company have run well there for eight nights, Prussian Mission to Caina.—The Prussian Gov ernment has despatched ¢ mission to China, for the purpose of making investigation into the nature of the trade, commerce, and commercial regulations of that empire, of taking the preparatory steps for the establishment ofconsuls at the various ports, and of ascertaining what kind of goods are in demand there, and how the people of Prussia and the Ger- man Customs Union may best avail themselves of the new avenue which China opensto the trade o the civilized world. Tue Murver or Miss Hanson —Our readers cannot have forgotten the account of the murder o! a Miss Hanson, in Rochester, N. H., the particu- lars of which we published a week or ten days ago. Andrew F. Howard, the murderer, has confessed his crime, and states, that finding Miss Huason alone in her house, he tried to get the money, which he knew she and her brother had in their possession, without committing violence upon her. As she re- fused, however, to give up more than a small eum, he shot her delibeately throvughthe neck, causing death instantaneously. He then searched her house, but could only find about $30, Mise Hanson’s trunk, coataining nearly $1000, being concealed so as \o escape his observation. The murderer has been committed to Dover jail, wits his brother, who is det sined as a witness, Our advices are from Montreal to the “8th, and Kingston to the 26th inst. On the 28th the Provincial Parliament was to meet in Kingston. Sir Charles Metealfe returned to that city on the 24th to prepare for the opening thereof. We annex a few extracts from the last Canada Papers. (From Montreal Herald, Sept.28.) Our readers will find below an analysis of two very important acts, which it is understood will be submitted to the Legislature at the approaching ses- sion of the Provincial Parliament. _ q Tt will be seen that it is the intention of the cabi- net entirely to remodel our whole system of judicial administration; we fear we must say to revolution- ize and not to reform it ; and, whatever other con- sequences may follow the ado) ion of this plan by the Legislature, it is abundantly evident that it will at once create an enormous amount of “spoils” to be distributed among the adherents of the Ministry. This feature in the scheme we cannot but view with distrust, and think that some provision should have been made by which the holders of offices un der the existing system, should have been secured by analagous offices under the new. : ‘Want of space prevents our, at present, consider- ing the details of these most important proposed en- actments, but we shall take an early opportunity of reverting to the subject. [From the Kingston Statesman.) Our contemporary, the Montreal Courier, takes us totask for saying Upper Canada ‘‘ must” have the Seat of Government within what was formerly her boundary. We repeat the assertion ; not in anger, we assure our contemporary, but coolly and delibe- rately. We can prove by testimony the most unde- niable, that the Seat of Government being within the limits of Upper Canada, wasa condition of the Union. And we now tell our contemporary, thatif that condition is violated, the Union is dissolved !!! Let him mark our words. [From the Kingston Whig of Sept. 26.) Mr. Judah has been returned member for Cham- lain county by a majority of 300 over his opponent, ir. Trestier. Mr. Judah’s election is a happy refu- tation of the ungenerous calumny uttered at the ex- pense of the Franco-Canadians ; and we are taught ina practical form, that the French Canadians do Not insist upou religious or national qualification, when their candidate came recommended to them as holding liberal prineipl Among late arrivals at the seat of government, we notice that of Mr. Gibbet Wakefield, member of the Provincial Parliament for the county and people of Beauharnois, (fit representative of such a people,) who has been waited upon, petted and re- ceived by all sorts of great folks. Verily, society has no moral tone in Canada, when it can exchange courtesies with such afellow. It isin every body’s mouth to-day, that the Hon. Mr. Harrison has resigned, or is about to resign his employment under the government. As the Clergy Reserve Fund is to be a subject of considerable importance before the provincial par- liament, we will give a few facts relative thereto: The annual stipends and divisions payable out of this fund tothe clergy of the churches of England and Scot- land, and to any other religious bodies er denominations of Christians, to whom the crown is pledged, is thus enu- merated :— ‘To the Bishop, Archdeacon, "Missiona: tired Missionaries, and widows of Presbyterian Synod of Canada and Church Scotland. .....ssesseeeese eee 2840 00 0 Roman Catholic Bishop and Clergy. ++ 1600000 The exceeds of this charge above the proceeds of the clergy reserve fund, is defrayed out of the consolidated fund of the province. It is here to be seen that three sects only received the benefit of the fund, whilst there are fifteen sects in Canada. As the remaining sects are com- posed of a large portion of the population of the Pro- vince, it is clear that difficulties and troubles of a serious nature will arise unless there be an equal di- vision of the money. And how can England grant this and preserve the inviolabilityof her own church? Apart from this important question, there are other matters affecting the Canadians that will yet lead to some heart-burnings, if nothing worse. The total population of Canada West in 1842, was, according to the census, 486,055, being an increase over 1841, of 34,048. This population will not permit the Home Government to pass them by without so much as a nod. Ii is already the remark that the Queen seldom or never mentions them in her speeches, but grasps all she can. Thanks must be given for what is taken. of Bridgeport.

Cleveland Reviewing the Troops at Norwalk and Stepny—Railroad Meeting. Dear Bennett :— Perhaps I could not better improve a few leisure moments than to address a few lines toyou. This is the season for general musters throughout the State of Connecticut. I therefore think it would not be whollyimproper to inform you of a little that is going en in these parts. Gov.Cleveland arrived here on Monday from New York, together with Engine Co No. 20, from your city, which wason a target excursion, and by the way looked extremely well. They were hospitably received by Engine Co. No Sofourcity. They had with them the New York Brass Band, andthe way they did walk into “Old Dan Tucker,” was’nt slow Gov. Cleveland loeked quite well. He has slmost recovered from his lameness—so much so that he can walk well with the aid of astaff. He stopped at the Sterling Hotel. Itisam admirable place, and is most ably conducted by Messrs. Barnum and Fairchild. The Governer was particularly waited upon by the amiable Doctor —,, Congressman elect, who was not wanting for politeness nor hospitality, and our little Mayor was not behind in his affectionate caresses. On Monday afternoon the Governor, together with the Doctor and Jerry, and a number of others both male and female, cepted an invitation ot Capt. Fazio on board of U.S. Cutter Madison, off Black Rock. A salute of 21 guns was fired in honor of the Governor. The company having re turned from the cutter, the Governor encamped with the Doctor for the night. Sif On Tuesday the Governor, his private Secretar , the Doctor, Jerry, the Mayor, departed from Bridgeport, in a barouch, to Norwalk, as a general training was there that day, it being Governor Cleveland’s object to review the troops. Unhappily. itrained most all the day, and only our regiment paraded, that of Colonel Sanford’s, the 24th. ‘The Governor and suite returned to Bridgeport the same afternoon. This morning (Wednesday,) the Go- vernor and suite departed to Stepney, to an- other general muster to-day. Itis a fine day, and the Governor will, no doubt, show off to a preity ood advantage in reviewing the troops. The jadies call him handsome. _ f There js to bea great railroad meeting here on Friday, the 29:h instant. The great object is to pre- vent the road from falling into the hands of its creditors. So mote it be. Prince ALBERT. Tae Mipptetown Mourn! ‘Menipen, Sept. 28. —Yesterday morning,Sherift Bacon, of Middletown, came here and arrested Lucien Hall, who lives in the house with Thrace, a hundred rods south of Twist’s Hotel. He has worked in Westfield the past summer, and left home last Sunday, and was absent until night. After hisreturn he sent for Dr Barlow,who sewed up adeep cut between his thumb and forefinger; the bosom of his shirt had spots on it, and he says he hurt himself ehutting his knife but the Doctor thinks it improbable. Capt. Coll has this iy gone to search the house. Hall was coimitted for further examination. ‘There was nothing done with Bell and Roberts yesterday We learn by passengers in the cars, thatthe Hall above reterred to has been an inmate of the State prison, and that trom a knowledge of his character suspicion in the neighborhood is streng against him. In regard to Bell and Roberts, we learn that the lat- ter is, or hasbeen since his arrest, under the influ ence of a severe attack of delirium tremens. Bell is eaid to be very cheerful, and manifests no concern im regard to himarlf, and yesteiday accompanied the officers over the ground which he says he travel- led ou Sanday. Roberts was to pass through the same ordeal to-day. As both were known to be to- ether that day, it is supposed possible some discre- paney may be detected in their statements in respect to their whereabout at the time of the murder. The opinion prevails to seme extent in Middletown hat Bell is innocent of any participation in the vioody deed, but there isless charity for Roberis The excitement in the region of the tragedy is sti} r Ee a aud every effort is being made to detect the uiliy.—New Haven Pallad: Senrencen.—The young assassin, Evans, whe was arrested at Buffalo N.

Falton near the corner of Nassau, was entered by burglars, every thing of value on the premises removed. The rogues effected an entrance by opening the ining store, kept by Robinson asa print shop, with a false key, and then broke a hele through the partition wall large enough to admit one of the party, who then cleared out the premises. Mr. Westlake had fortunately removed all bis customers’ watches the evening previous, or they would have shared the same fate as the other valuables. Here a robbery is committed in one of our most public streets, with watchmen stationed in the very vicinity, and Yetnot a trace or clue to the rogues can he discevered. Picxrocxets.—Charley Brown, alias G. C. Baxter, and John McDowell, alias McDonald, ‘were traced from New Haven on Friday, where they had been practising their depredations, and caught yesterday morning by officers from that city on board of the New Haven boat. Another oneof the gang made his escape while they were taking hi ice office, and a fourth, whom we believe was Pete Sherwood, was Jet up after he had arrived there, through some undue influence. They will be sent to New javen on a requisition, as soon as time will per- mit. Fine in Brooxtyn.—On Friday afternoen fire was dis- covered in two stables fronting on Water and Main streets, peleging to Evart Snedeker and Daniel Abbett. It ex- tended across Water street, and destroyed the dwelling house and grocery of Mr. Redden, two dwelling houses adjoining, a pump and block maker’s shop, and communi- cated with the extensive stables and works of Messrs. Alexander Burbeck & Sons,on the south, which were Rainy injured. On Main street, the hotel of Mr. Mc ‘luer was “eet te the dwelling and grocery store of Mr. McNally, and one or two other buildings. There were some other buildings more or less damaged. The flames were so rapid in es ress, that achild was smothered before removed, and a lady who had been re. cently confined was compelled to be taken from her room out of the second story window. The fire is supposed to have been communicated by an incendiary, as there had been none used in either of the stables w! it was first discovered. Dirp Suppeniy.—A boy named Rot ert Robinson, aged 11 years. son of Robert and Jane Robinson, of 120th street, died on Friday afternoon suddenly from congestion of the brain, He had been complaining for some time past, and returning from school was taken sick and died soon after.

The Judge on the trial refused to charge the jury, that if they believed the defendant’s draw was out of order without negli ence on their part, ond that due diligence to repair such draw was used by them, that the defendant would be entitled to a verdict. To this exception taken by the defendant’s counsel, as well as on several Jaw points, The jury rendered a verdict for the plaintiff, assessing the damages at $100 and 6 cents costs.

The circu- lar says:— * a “The community at Skeneateles will extend their hospitahty to strangers from a distance. It is ex- pected that friends in Central and Western New York will come abundantly furnished with provi sions. We have reason to believe thet this con- ven'ion will be numaerously attended, epirited, and deeply interesting.” Prornecy.—In one of Horace Walpole’s letters to a correspondent, written in 1770, he makes the remarks following as prospective of the glory and vastness of this land of ours. His vision’stime has made realities : ‘“You have seen the accounts from Boston. ‘The tocsin seems to be sounded to Ame- rica. Ihave many visions about that country, and fancy Isee twenty empires and republics fuming upon vast scales over all that continent, wisi it growing too mighty tobe kept in subjection io neit a dozen extausted nations in Europe. As the latter wink, and the others rise, they who live between the eras willbe a sort of Noah’s wituesses to the period of the old world and origin of the new, I entertain myself with the idea ofa future Senaté in Caroline and Virginia, where their patri will harangue on the austere and incorruptible virtue of the anciem English; will tell their jitors of our disinterested- ness and scorn of bribes and pensions, and make If blush in our graves at their ridiculous panegyrics. A meeting of influential gentlemen was re- cently held in New Orleans for the laudable pur- pose of putting some restraint on the practice of duelling. It is the intention of there gen- men (says the New Orleans Crecent City) to engraft the rules of the French code on that which pre. vails in New a to ioe for be evidently i of giving the choice of weapons to fee Prat , that which decrees all fuir objects of preference to the insulted and inj rty.— The remote end which is sought by these humane attempts on the part of the high minded individuals, who arranged and guided the resolutions of the meeting, is, to confine this most unchristian method of settling differences, sometimes of the most pue- rile nature, within such narrow limits, that we may naturally hope ere long to see it fall into complete desuetude. REMARKABLE Tomn.—The Paris correepondent of the Intelligencer says:—Public attention is again drawn to the tomb of the immortal author, the Vis count de Chateaubriand, who yet liv ar the Ob- servatory,in tolerable health. “He solicited, in 1828 irom his birth-place, St Malo, a grant of space for « grave in the isle of Grand Bay, nearthat maratime town, because his mother was there seized with the pains of parturition, though she brought him forth in the kitchen of the family mansioi the town, oot being able to reach fer chamber. The gooo tolks of St. Malo voted him fifteen feet by ten on » point of the islet, and four thousand franes for the tomb cut in a solid roek, with a cross of granite erected on a stone six feet long and three wide. The iron railing will not be placed until his morta remains are deposited in the rock. The places ca: ve visited only at low tide of the ocean. The adja sent rocksare steep and auge; the whole scene ro mantic to sublimity; the solitary cross is descrie: ar at sea; every day in the summer, there is a con- sourse of pilgrims, who pay homage and gather me mentoes—flowers from the crevices and pebbles trom the yet untenanted grave area. What man s« worshipped in his lite time?” BY THE SOUTHERN MAIL Dagapro. Murper —We have to record one of” the most daring and atrocious murders that has per- haps ever been perpetrated within the limits of our city. It was committed last night, a short time af- ter8 o’clock, on He _pesaee of a young woman named Ann Maria » aged 28 years, a nurse in the famiiy of R. H. Moale, Esq., residing in Frank- lin street, between Cathedral and Park streets. The deceased, it appears, left the house ot Mr. Moale about eight o’elock, for the purpose of going to the store of Mrs. Hann, milliner, in Lexington street, on business. On her way, she stopped at the resi- dence of Mr. 8. Poultney, Mulbe; treet, opposite the Cathedral, where some of Mr. Moale’s children had been spending the evening, to say she would accompany them home on her return. She then left and proceeded on her way to the establishment above mentioned. About 20 minutes or half an hour afterwards, a person rang the bell of Mr. Poultney’s dwelling. A servant man immediately went to the door—on opening which he was accost- ed by the deceased, who was literally covered with blood. She exclaimed that she had been almost killed by aman who came up behind, and without saying a word, inflicted blows upon her head. Whilst thus in conversation, she put her fiagers to her mouth and picked out a front tooth, which, together with the lower jaw, had been broken by one of the h!ows. The unfortunate girl was then taken in and had her wounds dressed, alter which she was accompanied to M. : and carefully placed under immediate me: he attack, it is supposed, was made whil was crossing a small Are on Mulberry stre site the Cathedral. No clue whateve! had to the inhuman monster who, mitted the dreadful deed. The presumption 18, the unoffend- ing deceased wasmistaken for another, whom some iend had premeditated killing. ‘There were several bruises and cuis on the face, one over the lett eye, and one on the mouth, which broke the jaw bone and displaced several teeth. The fatal blow, and inamediate chuse of death seemed to have been inflicted with a club on the back region of the head, behind the rightear. Thisfractured the skull aud drove part of the bone into thebrain. The un- fortunate youzg woman suffered inteuse agony, theugh she continued rational until about twelve o’clock, after which she continued to sink rayidly, and expired about four o'clock this morniag. She bore an excellent cheracter, had been in the family ot Mr. Moale overa year, and was highly esteem- ed for her amiable qualities, i Several witnesses were called up during the in- uest, all of whom testified most faverably of the deorgied: tnt could in no way account for her hav- tees thus attacked. he Mayor of Baltimore has offered a reward of 500 for the apprehension of the murderer.—Balt. atriot, Sept. 30.
