Jonathan Bradford, Jonathan Bradford, kept an Inn in Oxfordshire, on the London road to Oxford, in the year 1720. He bore an unexceptionable character. Mr. Hayes, a gentleman of fortune, being on his way to, Oxford, on a visit to a relation, put up at Bradford's; he there joined company with two gentlemen, with whom he supped, and in conversation unguardedly mentioned that lie had then about him a hrge sum of money. In due time they retired to their respective chambers; the gentlemen to a two bedded room leaving, as is customary with many, a candle burning in the chimney corner,' Some hours after they were in bed, one of the gentlemen being awake, thought he heard a deep groan in the adjoining chamber, and this being repeated, he softly awaked his friend. They listened together, and the groans .increasing, as of' one dying, they both instantly arose, and proceeded silently to the door of the next chamber, from whence they heard the groans; and the door being ajar, saw a light in the room, thdy entered, but it is impossible to point out their consternation, on perceiving a person weltering in his blood in the bed, and a man standing over him with a dirk lanthorn in one hand and a knife in the other. The man seemed alike petrified as themselves, tut his terror, carried with it all the terror of euilt! The 'gentlemen soon discovered the person was a stranger with whom they Lad that night supped, and that the man standing over hiin, was their host They seized Bradford directly, disarmed him of bis knife and charged him with being the murderer; he assumed by this time the air of innocence, positively denied the crime, arid asserted that lie cam& there with the same humane intentions as themselves : for that hearing a noise, which was succeeded by a groaning, he got out of bed, struck a light, armed himself with' a knife for his defence, and had but tliat minute entered the room before them. These assertions were of little avail; he was kept in close custody till the morning nndthen taken before a neighboring justice of the peace. Bradford still denied the murderjbut nevertheless, with such an appaicnt indication of guilt, that the justice hesitated not to make use of this extraordinary expression, on writing out his mittimus, '31r. Bradford, either vou or in vsclf committed this murder.' This extraordinary affair was tho conversation of the whole country. Bradford was condemned over and over again, in evcrv company- In the midst of all this deterruination, came on the assizes at Oxford. Bradford was brought to trial; he pleaded not guilty. Nothing could be more strong than the evidence of the two gentlemen; they testified to the finding of Mr. Hayes murdered in his bed, -Bradford . at the side of it with a light and knife, and the hand which held it bloody; that on their entering the room he betrayed all the signs of a guilty man, and that a few moments preceding, they heard the groans of the deceased. Bradford's defence on his trial was the same as before the gentlemen, he had heard a noise; he suspected villainy transacting; he struck a light; he snatched a knife, (the only weapon near him,) to defend himself; and the terrors he discovered, were merely the terrors of humanity, the natural effects of innocence as well as guilt, on beholding such a horrid scene. This defence, however, could be considered but as weak contrasted with the several powerful circumstances against him. Never were circumstantial evidence. more strong. There Was little need left of com-lnt-nt, from the judge in summing up the evidence. No room appeared for extenuatloa! Aud the jury brought in the prisoner
- guilty, even without going out of the box. . I Bradford was executed shortly after, still
j declaring lie was not the murderer, nor jprivv to the murder of Mr. Hayes; but he ciieu cusuejicveu uy nu. Yet were those assertions not iintrue! The murder was actually Tcomrnitted by Mr. Hayes's footman, who immediately on stabbing his master, rifled his breeches Of Jl! money, cold watch and snuff box. and escaned to his own room: which could have been, from the after circumstances, scarcely two seconds before Bradford's entering the unfortunate gentleman's chamber. The world owes this knowledge to a remorse of conscience in the footman, (18 months after the excution of Bradford,) on a bed of sickness; it was a death' bed repentance and by that death the law lost its victim. It is much to be wished, that this account could close here, but it cannot. Bradford, though innocent, and not privy to the murder, was, nevertheless, the murderer in design. He had heard, as well as the footman, what Mr. Hayes had declared at supper as to his having a large sum of money about him, and he went to the chamber with the same diabolical intentions as the servant. He was struck with amazement! lie could not believe his senses! and in turning back the bed clothes, to assure himself of the fact, he, in his agitation, dropped his knife on the bleeding body, by which both his hand and his knife became bloody. These circumstances Bradford acknowledged to the clergyman who attended him after his sentence. KISSING. We have just been looking over the first number of Tate's Edinburg Magazine. It is very interesting, and almost equal to its rival Blackwood. We find only one article in it, however, of a peculiarly spoiling character. This is an essav on kfctsin? which must be allowed to be the rarest and best kind cf sport. N. Y. Times. He thus describes the lass amatory: "On writing this word we feel our breast fluttering beneath a clogged weight of fear, just as it did we care not to say how many years ago. It. is a strange and beautiful tiling Mrs?, innocent love. There is that in female beauty, that dslights merely to gaze upon ; but beware of looking loo long. The lustrous black pupil contrasted with the white of the eye or the carnated skin the clear, placid blue, into which you see down down into the very soul the deep hazel, lustrous as a sun lit stream, seen through an opening to its willovy banks all may be gazed upon with impunity ninety-nine times, but the hundredth you are a gone man. On a sudden, the eyes strike you as deeper and brighter than ever; or you fancy that a long look is stolen at you beneath a drooping eyelid, and p.- once you are in love. Then you spend the morning in contriving apologies for calling, and the days and evenings in playing them off. When" you lay your hand on the door bell, your knees tremble, and your breast feels compressed; and when admitted, you sit, and look, and say nothing, and go away determined to tell your story the next time. Tills goes on for months, varied by the occasional daring of kissing .a flower with which she presents you perhaps in the daring intoxication of love wafting it towards her; or in an affectation of the Quixote style, kneeling with mock-heroic emphasis to kiss her hand in affected jest; and the next time you meet with her, both are reserved a3 ever. Till at last, on some unnoticable day, when you find yourself alone with the lady, you quite unawares feel her hand in yours, a yielding shudder crosses her, and you know not how, she is in. your arms, and you press upon her lips, delayed but not withheld, "A long, long kiss, a kiss of youth .nd love. A li"ht sketch from low life, under, the homely name of IS Homme qui Bat sa Fcmmc has been produced at one of the Paris Theatres with general applause. An honest locksmith, suspected by his neighbors of the brutal offence asrainst manhood indicated in the title, is eagerly watched by a lynx-eyed mother-in-law, in the hope of catching the culprit in f. a grant ddietro; at length she deems bcvscli successful; finding the door firmly doled, and hearing sounds from within that bode a coming matrimonial tempest, she hastily betakes herself for an Agent of Police, and accompanied by the Mrs. Candours, etc. of the quartier, bursts in on the stormy tetc-a-tcte, and discovers- not what she expected but that it is the lady who is in. the habit of administering a little wholesome correction to her worser half, a fact which completely -turn the tables. The Commissary has his walk for his pains; the party, particularly the female part of it, declare this just as it should be, and the belligerent pair declare themselves, notwithstanding an occasional congugal breeze, the happiest couple in all the world or in all Paris, which in the eyes of a Parisian, means the same thing. From materials so slender as-these, the writers have produced a very amusing little piece. Mr. R. a young law student, living upon close terms of friendship with the son of Mme. II., and being received by the family, formed a strong attachment to the daughter, a young lady of great beauty, aged 1 0, and demanded her in marriage of her mother in consideration of the great friendship that subsisted between the suitor and her sou. The father of Mr. R. had signified his assent,, but the mother refused on the ground of the extreme youth of her son, who was not yet 21, and the father also wished the marriage delayed till he was cal led to the Bar. On Friday last, Mile. II. left home on a pretence of going to make some purchases, but not returning, search was made for her in every direction, but in vain. The possibility of her being with Mr. R. never occurred to her friends till Saturday evening, when they learnt- that

lhe brother of Julie. H. went to the appartrncnt of his friend, but the porter assured him that he was not at home. On Sunday, further inquiries and searches were made with the same result. At length Mr. II. went again to the residence of his friend, and though he received the same answer as before from the porter, he persisted in going tip to. Mr. R's rooms. He knocked, but received no answer; he endeavored to find some means by which he could see into them, but every aperture was closed; At length, he was satisfied he heard a moaning. A Commissary of Police was called, and the door forced open, when Mr. H. found his unhappy sister on the bed, completely dressed as when she left her mother, but in the agonies of death. . 1 i Mr. R. was also, with all hi3 clothes on seated on a chair by her side, and suffering the severest convulsions. There were three braziers in the middle of the Chamber, and the cause of this terrible catastrophe was at once apparent. On Thursday, Air. R. had got in a quantity of charcoal,- and on Friday night a first attempt at this two-fold suicide was made, but"? it appears that the door did not shut sufficiently close to exclude the air and the dreadful resolution was postponed till the following evening Next morning Mr. R. went out, and returned with a further supply of charcoal, and at night the preparations of self destruction were renewed by the lovers. Instantly after the scene was discovered, physicians were called in and every remedy applied, but in a short time Mile. II. expired. Mr. R. was sufficiently restored to his senses to become aware of what had happened, it being impossible to remove him before the fate of his companion wras decided. He then sunk into a state of mental alienation, and was carried to the Hospital of Beaujon. Letters from these two victims to passion were found upon the table declaring that they were driven to the act they were about to commit fronrdcspair of ever being allowed to unite. A joint will, written by Mr. R. and signed by both, expresses their last wishes. Mr. R. affirmed by every thing held most sacred, that Mile. II. died as virtuous and as pure as when she' left her mother. They express their earnest desire that though they were not united in life they might be in death, that they might be placed in one coffin, or at least in one grave. A revolutionary Soldier, residing in Virginia, complains in the Cliarlcstown Free Press, of the injustice of government, in allowing him a pension of only eight dollars per month. He states that he is 77 years old, had three wives, raised and educated twenty children, and has three more under the age of seven years, tho youngest of which is less that eighteen months. A man of such amazing physical powers must have been of vast service in the war of the revolution; and when we add his wonderful contributions to the national strength in after times wc say that none but hearts of flint could withstand his application for "double rations it would be wise in Congress to support a hundred such men at the public expense if they could be found. We are sorry to learn that this veteran lias been severely crippled within a few. years pr.st, but are consoled with the assurance that he still enjoys good health and spirits. We give him the Spanish salutation, t:raay he live a thousand years." . Baltimore CltrorAcle. The violence of the Jamaica writers in the newspapers of that Island against the; sectarian preaching is so great it is nearly burlesque, "Sectarianism," says one of them, "is a hydra headed monster, which has proved itself a traitor to the laws, and the institutions of the colony a hypocritical, canting, roaring blood sucker. A plij-sician at Warsaw wishing to make an experiment, proposed to a 'cry robust man to lie in bed where a person had died ! of the cholera. As a considerable reward was -offered to him for so doing, he agreed to the proposal; but the man wa3 scarcely in bed when Ins imagination began to work, and made him uneasy; he felt all the svmtoms of cholera, and died, notwithstanding the medical assistance that was afforded him. The physician afterward declared that no one who had died of the cholera bad previously slept in the bed. This fact proves that the fear produced by tho imagination has a share in promoting the disease. To PrSwlcrs.
