As the widow's case made some impression on my mind,
I will give it to your readers in substance, as it appears the National Intelligencer, of Feb. 10. A bill was introduced into the house of representatives, in congress, at an
early period of the session, for the relief
of Penelope Denny. The facts, as admitted by the members were these : Mrs. D. was an aged, infirm and helpless widow of a revolutionary officer, her son, the only support of her declining years,
was a gunner on board of one of the u. S. vessels employed in the suppression of piracy. Denny, having no other relation, on leaving N. York to go to sea, ordered four dollars per month of his pay, being one half, to go to the support ofhis mother. The vessel in which he sailed, by the exertions of the brave capt. Allen, the commander and his crew were very successful in the object of the cruise, and had contributed largely to the naval pension fund, by the property
taken from the pirates, from the sale ofj
which that find is created. When in a desperate engagement with the pirates, both Allen and Denny fell. Thus ended the means of support of the widow. The bill provided, that the widow should be placed on the pension roll for five years, at eight dollars per month, and was supported on the ground, that Denny, by his own exertions, had contributed more to the fund than was asked for his mother that her husband had fought for the liberty we enjoy that unless congress should grant her relief, she must beg, being old, poor, friendless and infirm, and her only prop, her brave son, hav
ing died bravely supporting the flag of
his country; these tacts were admitted in argument. The bill passed the house of representatives by a considerable majority and the senate without a question. Shall I tell you that judge Test, our re
did recognize his as the voice of the as
sassin, positively; she could not be mistaken. 5th. Mrs Sharp caught a view of the assassin as he stood a moment opposite to the partly open door to the room in which she was. His size, figure, and cloak, corresponds with those of the prisoner.

incre were many otr.er cuvumsiances proved, tending to confirm and strengthen these more prominent facts; among the rest, that the prisoner had attempted to suborn a witness. (Captain Lowe,) to swear a tissue of falsehoods ; had drawn up and secretly conveyed to him through the prisouerVwife, no les? than six sheets of manuscript, for the witness to commit to memory and repeat as his testimony. Among other things, the witness, who had never seen Mr. Darby, was to swear that Darby had tried to bribe him to swear against Beauchamp, and that Capt. Kelly had made similar attempts upon him.
The evidence introduced on the part of the prisoner did not appear to us to have much force to repel that against him. He proved satisfactorily that he was in the Country of Simpson from the 10th to the loth of October, thus rebutting some evidence introduced by the commonwelth, conducing to show that he was in F ra i iv fort about the 1 1th October

As usual in those days, the father was expected to give his daughter a marriage portion. 'So father Hull, after his daughter was completely, and richly too, dressed and prepared for the cermony, caused her to be put into one side of a large pair of scales, in the presence of her friends, and then piled on dollars and crowns, silver money, until they weighed her down."

Manufacture of Linens. A company in New York hae recently established on an extensive scale near Waterford, a Factory for the manufacture of Linens, and propose to carry on this important, and in this country, uovel branch of trade in the most aporoved manner. The company offer .soOO for the best models of machinery to be used in the manufactare of the raw material, and .JlOOOmr the best essay on the different processes by which the cloth is to be perfected. It is believed that the only manufactory of the kind in the United Stales is one on a small scale at Patterson, New Jersey. The article of linen forms an important item of the imports of the. U. States and this first attempt to establish an extensive
manufactory in this country, must engage the good wishes of all. The cotton fabrics of the United States now meet with a decided preference, both at home and abroad the woolen establishments are daily producing cloths equal in all respects to those received frcm abroad, and are gradually and firmly taking root and we doubt not that in a few years the manufacture of linen will assume a due rank among the productions of the skill and industry of our countrymen. halt. .'nne7-.
