SS NT TELA eS dE awa site — @rial of Thomas Hyer at Chestertown, Md. Baxtimone, March 23, 1849. Breitement Among the Country People—Pathos of Hyer’s Cownsel— Biubbering in the Jury Box— Prospect of the Cuse, &c. ‘The trial of Thomas Hyer commenced at Ches- fertown yesterday morning, and I learn from a gentleman, who left there last evening, that the Place war never so crowdgd with people before. The whele population, white and black, for thirty miles around, have flocked in to get a sight of the great pugilist, and board and lodging was as scarce and high as it is represented to be in the gold Tegions. There being ne law in this State fer the punish- ment of prize fighting, he has only been indicted for an assault and battery on Yankee Sullivan; the State depending on the judge to imete out the strongest punishment the law would allow, which is two years’ imprisonment, and $1,000 fine. As eck would have it, however, George R. Richard- son, Erq., the Attorney General, who 18 the war- horse of the Maryland bar, was detained im the eity in the management of an important will case, avd was compelied to send down one of his deputies, Wm. H. Young, Esq., to get the case etponed until his arrival; but the counsel fer yer, Hon. Wm. A. Pearce, and the Hon. Albert Constable, would listen to no such proposition, and succeeded in bringing it on yesterday morn- ing. Ke State produced five witnesses, consisting of High Constable Gifford, who commanded the Pool’s Island expedition ; officer Cook, who ar- rested Hyes at Philadelpbia ; Justice Gray, of this city, who committed him to jail, and two citizens ot Kent county, who witnessed the fight. The witnesees from this city testified to all the tnbula- tons, triuls, sufleringe, and predicaments of the Pool’s Island blockad+, aud of the particulars of the arrest and commitment, all of wich are too well known to repeat. The witnesses rom ihe country, however, gave @ most graphic deecriptioa of the fight, especially the one who was overseer on the farm where the fight took place. He regarded it as the most pleas- ang sight he had ever witnessed, and thought that Yankee was served pertectly mght. He stated that Hyer was calm und quiet, and stood alto- gether on the detensive, whilst Sullivan, for the first three rounde, mace the first attack ; he also (which is a great point in an assault and battery ne swere, positively, that Sullivan struck Hyer the firet blow, and that it was not until alter Hyer wae knocked dwn by Suliivan, that he turned on him in good earnest. Ie further testified, that, curing the fight, Hyer knocked Sullivan down thirteen times ; and that, after each fall, he came up to him ready for more punishment; tnat the blows knocked Sullivan down * squash, just like you would knock a bullock down ;” but witness * eouldn’t tell whether Sullivan was bloody or not, for Hyer always fell on top of him.” { The evidence is said to have been most decid- edly meh, and the important witnesses for the State were most decided Hyer men, us well as the epeetators, and it was thought the jury, also. At ite ume the boat left, yesterday atternoon, the ex- amination of witnesses had closed. Mr. Young had opened for the State, and Senator Pearce was addrersing the jury in hehalf of Hyer. He was depicting, in glowing terme, the persecutions which his client had undergone from Sullivan, and the repeated insults and outrages said to have been perpetrated on his aged mother and wife, before ¢ could be provoked to accept ef Sullivan's chal- ienge. So pathetic was he in this appeal, that there was scarcely a dry eye in the court-house ; and some of the jury are said to have * blubbered right out,” At the latest moment that information has been received, the chances were decidedly in favor of a full acquita), as it had been incontesiibly proved by tne witnesses forthe State, that Sullivan struck the first biow, and hence. e8 was maintained by Hye counsel, he acted altogether in eelf-defence, and until seriously hurt by his opponent, he used but little effort to injure him. I must not omit te mention, however, that the grand jury found three indictments against him, on¢ for conspiracy, another for an assault with in- tent to kill, and the third for an assault and bat- terv: but the two first were quashed by the Court. The excitement among the people is said to have exceeded ali belief; and Hyer 1s decidedly the lion ofthe county. It was with difficulty that the quiet of the court 100m could be preserved, which was erewded to excess, inside and out. As soon as they kad given in their testimony, the witnesses for the State, from this city, it is said, made tracks homewerd, having heard some audible murmurs which were not very flattering to their personal safer The opinion at Chestertown was, that Hyer would be cleared taumphantly of all guilt in the mutter, as the country people generally regurd a fist fight as much preferable to a duel, or evena uit at law, to settle a difficulty.

Raslroad Intelligence. The directors of the diflerent roads from Albany to Buffalo, met a few days since at the city of Al bany, for the purpore of tuking into consideration the propriety and importance of changing the time of departure and increase of speed on the Albany and Buffalo Railroad, as the travel for the coming spring aud summer is expected to be very heavy, in consequence of the antic cholera in the Eastern cities. other train put on the road, which is to leave AF bany at halt prast5 or 6 o’clock, A.

The next train is to leave Albany at 9 o’clock A. M., which will stop at ail the way sta- tionr,\for the convenience of way paseengers, and will rua threugh to Buflale in about 16 hours. The next will be the train for emigrants, which will leave at half past 2 P. M., and run to the end of the route mm about the usual time. The night train will leave at 7 o’clock, as heretofore. This new and important arrangement will not go into effect until op or about the first of May. | The schedule of running time has not yet been printed, but will very soon, at which time I shall transmit it to you. ‘The Floods in the West. The St. Lous (Mo.) Republican, of the 14th inst., speaking of the flood in the Tinois river, says:--lt all we hear in relation to tais stream be true, there was never known such an amount cf suflering and loss of property, as have taken place within the past few days, and must result from the flood. From boats ia yesterday, we learn that the water at Peona, on Monday, was twelve or fifteen inches higher than during the great treshet in 1844.--Nearly all the landings and towns on each sice of the river, are completely inundated. At Perv, on Surday Jast, the toundation of Messrs. Beebre & Breweter’s extensive warehouse, situ- ated immediately on the bank of tue river, gave way, and the whole buildin, in a mass, with an acditional loss of 20,000 bushels of wheat, stored in bulk. The building is said to have cost $9,000. The wheat, which was equal in value to $10,000, was stored in birs, and nota bushel, it is said, will be caved. Mr. R. Tompkins’ warehouse, at Cop- per creek, has also been washed away, with a very considerable Joss of produce. Nuples and Beardstown are completely inundated, and there are but two or three places from the mouth to Peoria, on the north ahs ot the river, but which are under water. On she south side itis even worre, and, with the exception of Havana, Pekin, and one or two other points, the whole coast is submerged, to the depth, 1n many plaees, of 8 and 10 feet. The water at Peoria, on the morning ot the 12th, wus upto the curb stones ou Front street, and rising slowly. At Peru, the previous day, it hed commenced falling. The officers of the Prai- ne Bud report Peoria Lake still frozen over, and navigation closed at that point. The bridge across the Tiver wes in great danger of being carried away by heavy masecs ot floating ice and the strong current. The river from Peoria to the mouth rising raj idly all the way down. Tar Smvagrine Cask.— We make no complaint of the excitement which has been raised about the American Charge to Stockholm. We are unable 1o ascertain the satisfied that the late administration had no offi- facts of the case; but we are cial information to direct them in the considera- Hop of ite ments. It is due, however, to the in- tegrity of our country, to institute an investigation into the truth of the case, and to act accordingly. We have published the charge, and now we think it due to Mr. Ellsworth to lay the following ex- planation before our readers, as we receive it in the Datly Jowrnal, published at Lutayette, In- diana :— H. W.

If the Uaton desires to be intormed ns to the conduct of Mr. Ellsworth, concerning this smuggling aflair, and other mat- ters involving his oficial repute, it 1s but neces. ary to intimate such a desire—it the editor is not already apprized--to be put in possession of testi- mony, which will not only justify the administra- tion in the course which it has taken, but will satisfy the public, when explained, that any other course would have disgraced the government.” Acciprnta1 Poisonine.—A case of poisoning, resulting in the death of one individual and tne serious injury of another, occurred in this town on Saturday evenirg last. It wppears that a Mra, Gerald, of Manchester, whose tather (Henry Lar- kin) resided in Concord, came to this village on the evempg in question, on a visit to her frends, Pror to leaving M., she purchased a pint of brandy at Conner’s drug store—leaving the bottle on the show care, while the attended to some other errands atthe neighboring stores. Returning to Copner’s she took, as she supposed, the bottle of brandy she had purchased, and left for this place in the evening train of cars, being met at the depot by Mr. Larkin, and accompanied him home. Shortly etter reaching L.’s house, the supposed bottle of brandy attracted L.’s attention, and he being a man of rather dissipated habits, after en- quiring the supposed contents of the bottle, took the envelope trom it, and with a fork drew the cork, which was sealed and covered with a wash- Jewher, and without examination poured out two thirds of s tumbler full and drank it dow Woes Immediately thrown into the most dre fpasme, to the great consternation of the family, consisting of his wile, Mrs. Gerald, and another davehter.

Supreme Court, in relation to the New York and Massachusetis emigrant tax law. ‘FRE OPIMION. ‘The Comptroller and Attorney General have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of the resolution of he 14th of February, 1849, instructing them to report 10 the Senate what measures ought 10 Peopie of this state from the peuperism from foreign countries, aud frow public burdens conse- quent upon such introduction ; Ip obedience to suid resolution, the Comptroller and Attorney General, respectfully submit the following report :— by the revised statutes of the State of New York, entitled “o1 the marine horpital ana its funda’ (1 Rev.

That decision is based upon the groued that the statute was an interference with or regulation of commerce with fereign nations and among the several States, The court define commerce to consitt not only in the change of commodities, but to inciude mavigation and intercourse, and they hold that the transportation of passengers is eleariy s part of commerce; and hence, tha: any State law which in- terteres With, or regulates the transportation of passen- gers, is uncunstitutions!—the regulation of commerce being & power exclusively vested in Congress, under the federal constitution. ‘This portion of the decision is but where the precise line is to be di is to be deemed euch inter! the regulation of commerce and the internal police rowers and sanitary regulations necessary to guard the State against the introduction of pauperism and moral ond physical pestilence, by the influx of immigration, it is jax more difficult distinctly to perceive; that line, as observed by Mr Justice M:Leap, in delivering the opinion of the Court, no one bas yet drawn clearly, becaure, perbepr, no ove can draw it” ‘Tbe court, however, concede what must of necessity Le true, taatin giving the commercial power to Con- wiees, tbe States did not part with the ipberent power Of relf-preeervation, which existe in every orgauised ecmmupity, From thin concession it would seem to follow that the power of taxing immigrant passengers to an exient rufficient to raise » fund adequate te the evpport of quarantine regulations, anda hospital for the cure cf the diseased, together with indemnity agsinet pauperiem, covid not be objectionable; und the opinion is reasoned obiefiy upon the ground that the statute of New York im question transcended those objects, and sppropriated the annual sum of $8,000 of the 1und so reteed by taxation tw the support of the Juvenile Delinquent Asylum Hadthe matter stopped there, the difhculty might have been easily obviated, by 20 modifying the State law as to devote the whoie smcunt raised to the eupport of the Marine Hospital, epd io the creation of an eventual fund sufficient to evstain it; after the attainment of which, taxation might wholly ceare.

Inpia Pargrs.—We are indebted to Capt. Chas. F, Walliams, of ship Siam, says the Sulem Regis- ter, for a variety ot papers trom Manila, Hon; Kong, Victoria, Port Louis (Mauritius), and Sand- wich Islands. Although some of them are not so late us advices by overland mail, yet we find seve- ral matters of interest, which we have not betore seen noticed. The Friend of China and Hong King Guzette, published at Victoria, contains the tollo aoe United States Sep @ cargo sre valued at $360,000, ard is # trifle over four per cent. We were uncer the impression that the arvitra- torr would have taken @ more liberal view of the services rendered by the Plymouth, for although the satvors did not ineur auy ,reat peri!, there was a wood deal of hard work, while the promptitude in offering their services, apd the activity maniferted in eget ship and cargo. could not be surpassed, The Court of Admi- raity bar aliowed as muoh as 50 per cent. where great perscual danger has been incurred in resouing ship Thia may be tl cent, which is considered the minimum of salvage. Had this cace been left to the Court of Admiralty, tae ralvage, in «Il Hkelihood. would nothave been less than 10 per ornt. or $85,000. Captain Gedney erred in claiming 60 per cent. which was certainly too much; the agente for the insurers followed the example by going to the opposite extreme and offering 3 per cent, which was too little, Two ar- bitratora were ohoren by each party. Their views must bave been very opposite, as they referred the adjust. ment of the claim to an umpire. We presume it was after duly eonsidering the clroumetances, that he al- lowed $16.00 in the name of salvage, und $500 for hawsers, ko By statute 43 ; as been adjudged, that “if avy rip or verre! tuken as prize, or any goods therein, ‘hall appear, in the court of admiralty, to have belonged to any of his majesty’s subjects, which by any of his inujesty’s enemi ny time afterwards retaken by any of his ma ships, orany privateer, or other ship or vessel bis mejesty’s protection, such ships, versely and gocds sba lin all cases (eave ms hereafter excepted) be Sdjudged to be restored, and shall be accordingly re stored, to euch owner or owners, he or they paying for tatvege, retaken by any of ble mejorty’s shipr,one- eighth part of the true vaiue thereof.” If the reoapture i xth part is allowed with. We by @ privates y ly im point, but had Captain Gedney th,he would not bave been thought un- and hed that preportion been awarded, perhaps he would not bave got too much. 3 We perceive, by the Polynesean, that “His Highnees, the Premier of the Hawaiian govern- ment, has retained Asher B.

Bates, Eeq., at- tomey at law, late of Michigan, in the United States, ag the attorney of the government in legal matters.” The visit of the Preble to the Islands appears to have given great satisfaction: The Po/ynesian no- tices, with much pleasure, the good conduct of the crew during the vessel’s stay im port, and in a let- ter from the toreign office to Com. Geisinger, we find the following passages :— Sin—It has become my Do Jers agreeable than special duty. in the absence of the King, to thank you, and throvgh you.
