Dear Sin :— Siece | arrived here I have seen our friends in the Irgus office and State department—I mean Major Flagg, Mr. Wright, and Mr. Crosswell. Chey are very friendly, but they say they have heard little of our local matters in New York, consequent onthe sale of the Enquirer, with the exception of a passing remark from Mr. Cam- breleng as he paesed through bere a few weeks ogo They speak in the highest terms of Mr. Barnum, and as- sure mo chat he isevery way capable for the position in New York. J am sorely puzzled to know what to do. Although our friends here think it a very favorable op- ertunity to starts new paper, yet they think it a very Pocardoue experiment. ‘They told me te-day that if the party had the control of the political course of the Cou- rier and Enquirier, it would be more eligible than a new paper. This they think could be done b: Plscing an editor there under the auspices of the Goneral Committee —an editor who would take care of the interests of the party and his friends. They are afraid that the political patrouvage is not sufficient forthe support of a new paper, and they are of opinion that a journal which now en- joys all such patronage as the Courier and Enquirer ought to give up its columns to a political editor » pointed by the General Committee. 1 wish you could get me out of these contradictory views and opinions.

But after nearly ten years spent in New York, working night and day forthe cause of Mr. Van Buren and his friends; surrounded, too, as I have been, with those who were contioually talking against him, and poisoning me to his prejudice, the treatment which I have received from him and his friends during this last y this moment, is as superlatively heartless— use any other word more expressive of my sentiments I would—as it is possibie to couceive or imagine. By ma- ny of those whom I have supported for yenrs, I have been suspected, slandered, and reviled as if I had been in bitter hostility to Mr. Van Buren for years, instead of supporting him through every weatier, and oven sacri- ficing myself that I might retain the same feelings to- wards him—for I assure you I might have continued my tion with the C. & E. last year, very much to my —retained my share i the printing office of lishment, if [had not -iffered with Mr. Webb onthe points that you know so well of. 1 sold out, how- ever, to Hoskin—saved a small pittance from the wreck of the Globe—came here and invested it in the Psnnsyl- vunian, which is now entirely under my control, provi ded I could find a friend any where between heaven and earth to help me along, and enable me to carry out my fixed purpose in favor of Van Buren and his friends.

By a word to any ofhis friends in Albany he could do the friendship I want as easily as rise and drink a glass of Saratoga water at the Springs. He chooses to sit still— to sacrifice those who have supported him in every weather—and even hardly totreat me as one gentleman would treat another.

Avovsr 16, 1938, My Dean Six— T have not answered yours of 3d, for various reasons, Among other reasons, [ was quite too much provoked with you. It appears at the moment I was trying to vor you, the Pennsylvanian was taking such a course a was calculated to thwart all my efforts. There are but very few of our people, coimparati paper, and they have to look for its ty papers here. And what,does the Post and say of it? I am not going to set myself up ig to decide who or which is the aggressor; but I admit that an intelligent newspaper, edited any where in this country, ought to have known that the Northern Benner and the Moylestown Democrat are papers substantially hostile to the administration; bu ause it was not known to some of our “corps editorial ” it was no rea son a you should quarrel with all of us—by which | mean all the prominent Jackson papers, from the Irgus down. There ia a wonderful coincidence between the course the Pennsylvanian threatens to take, and that tak en by the Courier ¢ Enquirer when it first began to se cede from the Jackson ranks. It began, you will recol- lect, by assailing what was called the “Movey Chang- ers.” You are about to commence “No. 1—New Yor Stock Jobbiag, kc ,&ec., and certain expresses in the fall of 1832.” ‘This has all been published in the opposi- tion payers, and they did not make much of it; and there- fore} should doubt whether. a bona ‘fide Jackson paper could do better with it. If this was intended for Mum. ford, I could tell you reagons for eget him alone; if for Mr. Hone, there are similar reasons; but as he is no friend of mine, 1 speak only from general principles— there is nothing to be gained by it—it mends nobody's principles, or improves the morals of any one; but ra- ther helps your enemies in their efforts to satisfy others that you are not “a reliable man,” as the phrase is. The Post this afternoon, no doubt will call you hard names for associating “ vinegar” with the complacent counte- nance of my excellent and amiable—aye, am: friend, Croswell, Doctor Holland, of the Standard, will ro- write the same idea for to-morrow morning. All this is nite ridiculous on all sides; but you will perceive it 1: the worst for you h ause the people read but one and that is the ainst you. you think it is time to have the moral of my his—that I ean get no one to join me in y aid, and my means alone are wholly in- adequate to render ycu any relief, and what I have writ- ten you is but the essence of the arguments that have met me at every turn. You have heard me talk to Webb, folly of his being on the face of tl Mr. V. Buren’s, and at the firm and consistent and you stand in al: many here who believe that your friendship will end as Mr. Webb’s has. I will do you the justice to may that I believe no such thing, but at the same timo I will exer- cise the frankness to say, that the course of your paper lays you open to the suspicion. I know enough of af- fairs to know that you had high authority for the ground you have taken on the deposite question, and I thought you managed the subject well for the Rerrn Mg are in. I was teld by a person, a day or two since, that you would be aided from another quarter ; I could not learn how. But you ought not to expect my friend at the north to do any thing, not that he has an indisposition to do what is right, er that he would not serve a irievd, but hu is tn the attitude that requires the most fastidious re- serve. The people are jealous of the public press, and the moment it is attempted to be controlled, its useful- ness is not only destroyed, but he who would gain pub- lic favor through its columns is quite sure to full. | am sutisfied the press has lost some portion of its hold upon public confidence; recent developments have had a ten- dency to satisfy the people, that its conductors, or many of them, atleast are as negotiable os a promissory .

This town,you are aware,1s situate on the bank of the Savannah, opposite the city of Augusta, Geo.— It is the terminus of the Charleston Railroad, and a place of considerable trade, as will be perceived by noticing the cotton ‘market. Lust year 60,000 bales were shipped from this place, besides various other articies of merchandise and traffic from the country above. The Savannah river is at its lowest mark—drays and carriages fording it withthe greatest facility. I do not know whether this town bears any resem- blance to that great city of the old world alter which itis named. I think not, however. It there is any peculiarity, itis decidedly Mexican, for two-thirds of the houses are placed gable-end to the street. The most singular love affair I have heard of in some time, occurred in this place a few weeks since, Aman by the name of Graves, trom some where down east, came out here some months ago, and employed himself in the barber shop of Mr. Erasmus, a colored gentlemen, whose magic touch with a razor, by the bye, is almost certain sleep. The poor fellow seemed sadly dejected, and follow- ed his business with little inclination. Ou enquiry, it was found out that he was desperately enamoured of a litte black nymph, who rejoiced under the soubriquet of Rose, the slave of a gentleman of Augusta. Being attacked on the subject, he con- tessed to the soft impeachment. In a tew days the then owner of Rose disposed of her to go some- where in one of the upper districts uf this State; and 80 seon as the poor barber, Graves, heard of the in- tended departure of his dulcenea, his reason fled ! He wished to be sold to the owner of Rose. Two weeks ago, Graves died avicum to his foolish and disgraceiul pasion—a maniac. Rose was, in a few days after, the subject of a shametul attack, as was supposed, of several Irishmen. Her body was found floating in the Savannah, indecently and shockingly mutilated An alfray occurred between two negroes last night, in Augusta, in which one received a blow with a piece of scantling, which will probably re- sultin death.

Great excitement prevailed during the whole day At the ringing of the bell a great crowd rushed to the Court-house, euch one being anxious to have the mest fa- vorable position. The court soon assembled, aud the pri- Soner was brought forth. The witnesses, principally fe- males, were next produced. First came the poor girl whose wrongs were to be the subject of investigation — She was dreesed in the deepest mourning, and her face, which is the index of the heart, was full of nothing but her own sufferable sorrow. She was sworn, and asked for her painful story, but her lips refused their office— not a word could be heard by either court or audience The magistrates left the bench, aud clustering around her, with the commonwealt ttorney on one and the defendant’s counsel, (M Baldwin and Harman,) on the other, asked her once more to proceed with her evidence. She then commenced her narration in a whis- per, wholly inaudible to any but those immediately around her. Though not a word could be heard, the in- tensest interest continued to be felt, and the most solemn silence prevailed, and when the stern judges, and the at- torney tor the commonwealth, whose fortitude sumed to be strengthened by long habit, and even fendant’s lawyers were seen melting into tea whole crowd wept with them, and so strongly nerved as not to yield sion.

The great question now is, was it murder? We shall show that the prisoner was disguised on that occasion as an Indian—that he was there on that day—and thet he was one of the persons who shota gun—that after the firing commenced he asked for a ramrod to reload his rifle—that after he left the pre- mises, in company with others, the prisoner was ques- tioned in relation to the crime, and asked who eommit- ted it—he placed his finger on the muzzle of his gun and patted it, and expressed himself gratified that Steele was shot. He was at all events an accessory, acting with others for unlawtul purposes. If he was there disguised and armed, co-operating with others, whether he fired or not, he was guilty of murder in the eye oft . The | crime of murder is no longer left to the common law, but defined by statute. Mr. Sherwood now read from the Re d Statutes the definition of Murder; and from the ise Act” and Revised Statutes as to what consti- a felony. The Coury now remarked that jurors not engaged in the trial cf this cause, would not be wanted until Wed- nesday morning, and it was better for them to leave the court room, in order that their minds might remain un- prejudiced.

Annexed is the sentence passed upon Dr. Bough- ton by Judge Edmonds, at Hudson, on Tuesday.— We published exclusively the result of the trial in yesterday’s Herald :— JUDGE'S SENTENCE. Smith A. Boughton, you have b arraigned and tried on a charge of robbery, and a ary, almost of yourown selection, have found you guil- ty of the cha: You have hada very fair tri]. ‘The jurors were ited with gereat care, two weeks having ‘been spent in subjecting their opinions to the severest scrutiny, and you have yourself afforded the best evi- dence that they were eminently impartial. You have been allowed to go at large, and fully to prepare your defence. You have been defended by able counsel.— You have been surrounded by numerous friends, and every item of evidence which you or they deemed ma- terial to your defence, you have been allowed to lay be- have been, notwithstanding, con- victed, and it now only remains for the court to sentence upon you. Your offence, though in form it is presented to us as robbery, is in fact high treason, rebellion against your government, armed insurrection against the supremacy of the laws.— Until you came among them, the tenantry on the Manor, were, in outward deportment at least, whatever might have been their feel. ngs. rb: erving people, yourself sut & tenures of which you complained ; you came here avolunteer from another county. Ifyou had confined your operations within lawful and peaceable bounds, you would doubtless have encountered, end perhaps been aided by the sy epee y of mapy w: id good men, to whom the evils of those tenures are apparent as they were to you. But such wes not your pu! You came accompanied by a band of armed an uised men ; you early avowed your intention to resist the execution of the laws. A manof education, you well understood your duty to your country, yet when remonstrated with on the impropriety ot your course, you admitted that you knew itto be wrong. avowed your intention to persist in your meat resistance, because thus alone you couldattain your end. Possessed pecies of popular eloquence, you made your appeals to the interest of the tenants, by holding out to them the prospect of exemption from me eae of rent. To the more lawless and depraved among them, you held up, by means of the disguises which you were the first to introduce among them, the Bups of im- punity for any crimes they might commit. You thus enlisted in your service several hundred men, whom you publicly paraded in different pasta ot the county, armed and disguisod. And you publicly notified them to meet you on the appointed day, armed and equipped, to resist the Sheriff in the discharge of his duty, When that of- ficer arrived at the villoge of Copake, in the peaceable line of his duty, you placed yourself at the head of your armed band, and with pistols cocked an swords drawn, youcaptured him. You warned him not to proceed, but avowed that you had thus met to re: him, and that you intended to do so even to the shedding of blood. You held him a close prisoner for several hours. You sur- rounded him with your armed associates, and finally, with your pistol presented to his breast, you compelled him to surrender to you the legal process which it was his duty and his purpose toexecnte. Not content then to discharge him, but most fully to manifest your con- tempt of the law and its process, you kept him your pri- soner until, in his presence, and thot of the multitude wtom you had assembled there, you burned the papers of which you had thus robbed him. You afterwards, surrounded in the same manner, publicly avowed that youand they were thus armed in order to resist the Sheriff and his wosse, in any attempt t# arrest you for he crime you had committed. And you cafried cut your purpose by calling uvon your associates to stand by you, when he came to urrust you, by causing yourself to be rescued from his custody, and by yourself presenting a loaded pistol at him, and threatemiug to snot him with it. Under the impulse which you have thus given, and in imitation of your examplé, peaceable inhabitants ba’ been driven trom their homes at night. Houses ba been torn down, Jarms laid waste—the laws forcibly re sisted, and the otticers of justice fired upon and wounded while’ in the disclarse of their officyil duty. Cnete offences, seri as they are, been aggra- vated by the recklessness with which you have persis! in pressing upon the court and jury testimony which you know to be false. You have been the le. a the active iustigator, the principal fomenter, of all these disturbances. You have made y: 1t an example of dis- order and violence, and you caused many erring and misguided men to follow it, to their 1uin andthe dis- turbance of the public peace You have, theretore, rei dered it necessary that the court sould cause you to be a warning example of the certain consequences of such sonduct—that your misguided followers aud all others learn from your fate the important lesson that order cust be maintained, tue laws must be eutorced. Deeply as we may feel for the ruin waich you have brought upon yourseifand those connected with you, our duty teaches hat iorbearance towards you now, when such forbearance towards you heretofore, has only led you on to acts of more aggravated outrage, would be cruelty to the ignorant men whom you have misguided, and to the community which you have so deeply injured. You are, theretore, to be withdrawn for the residue of your life from the society whose peace you bave so wan- tonly disturbed, and whose laws you have so violently and so frequently violated, In the conrident hope, that from the example of your fall, all may learn the salutary lesson that the supremacy ofthe laws must and will be maintained.
