Johnson/' tho Indian agent, called ; at iny j < rbom and offered mo a hundred dollars h bn' : behalf - of tho United Stales, I in* i formed liim that I was a Stale officer and i could nrit accept the money; however ■ tempting it might he under other circnm- 1 stances. Tho court met in tho morning. ■ Wo agreed to try Sawyer first, for shooting oae of tho sqnawg.—Tho prisoner was. \ brooght into court by the sheriff.. He appeared so .haggard and changed by. Iris i long confinement that I scarcely knew i him. The coart ■ room was crowded. Gen, James'Noble, Phillips Swectser and myself for tho State; Janies Raridcn, Lot Bloomfield, William ft.' Morris and Charles II, Test for tho prisoner. Judge Eggleston, "Sheriff, call tho petit jury/’ Judge Winchel, " Sheriff, call squire Makepeace on tho jnry, ho will bo a good juror; ho will not let qne of these murderers get away."; Judge Eggleston, turning to Judge Winchel/"This will never do. What, tlio court-pack a jury to try a capital case ?" The jury was soon empannelcd; "Tho.evidence was conclusive that tho' prisoner had of the l ennaws at the camp with Iris nfle, offer tho 1 killing of Ludlow and Mingo by Harper and Hudson in tho woods.--Hio jury were a hardy, heavy 1 hoarded scl;pf men, with side knives in their belts arid not a pair of shoes among the'whole'of tjicm; rill wore moccasins. Mr. SwcctEor. opened, for .the State with a strong matter of-fact speech; that was his forte. -Ho was followed,.in able • speeches, by Sir. Moms, Mr.- Test and Mr._ Rrit ideri for the prisoner. General Noble closed for tho prosecution with' a powerful speech.! ThoGeqoiral was one of the strongest amt most effective speakers before a jury or a promiscuous assembly I have over heard,. This case went to the jury under an able charge from Judge Eggleston,.and'Courl adjourned for dinner. At tho meeting of the Court iri'tho afternoon, tho jury returned a verdict of "guilty of ra/mslanghtcr," two years at hard labor in the penitentiary. Mr. Rariden sprang lo Iris feet, "If tho-Court please, we lot judgment go on the verdict, and are ready for tho case of Sawyer for killing the Indian boy at the camp." "Ready for (ho Stale." The same jury were accepted by both sides—being in the box.. They were immediately sworn. The evidence was heard, again conclusive against tho prisoner. Gen.’Noble opened for the prosecution, rind wan followed by-Charles H. Test,' Willtanrli; Morris, and James Raridcn,; with powerful speeches. Tho jnry wore referred to ■ their verdict. in the previous case,'and their judgment was warmly'eulogized.' /This was. by arrangement, tfiy case to close. I saw ray poskion, and thatstho only point I had to meet was - to draw the distinction between the two cases, so as to justify tho jury in finding 1 a vordict for manslaughter in the one case, rind bf munler in the case before them. Indaw there was.up difference .whatever. ’. They Ware both cold blooded munlcrs; The calico shirt of the reordered boy,, stained, with blood, lay upon.the'table.V L Fpeceh ’ of an'hour. -i; Stepp!rig.forward ; I look up tho bloody shirtl arid holding-it up' to the ; jury,*- , thocases aro very {different: -Yon might find* the -prisonothi guilty *;of|inly‘in ah-? , slaughter, ip .nsing-his-rifle, tin a ; grpwn squaw; that was:tho’; act of»’>a.man, hut this wflsftha act* of(a- dtiripn, ![ j Look, at this shirtif with iho bloody stains, upon it: Jhis' was S^oor- helpless • boy, who: was itaken- by iho' hcels by this fi?ml in human shajui/ amUhh i brains 1 knocked dnt against e-logl* If.the other : case; was- manslaughter/ j is. not this murder?” Tho l oyes-’oftbo jury wcio filled with tears.’ i Judge'EgsIpetOti gave a clear and ablc chargo npon tholaw/ The jury, after ao absence - of on!y a fa wm in u t o< t - ro^ ; fnrried, ri-verdict’ ofj"rarirder in tho i fitit degree."!

Tho « charge Was -given by Judge Eggleston, and after a lew -minutes absence the jury : returned a verdict of "murder in the first 1 degree." Tho Only remaining case—of : the stripling; Bridge, Jr., for the murder : of the other fludiau boy at the camp—- ; esmobri next. The trial was more brief, but tho result was tho same—verdict of murder in the firat degree, with a recommendation, however, to the Governor for a pardon, in’ consequence of his youth, in 1 which tho coqrtand brirjoined.—The trials closed pro forma. Motions forntfw trials 'were overruled, the re 1 mamlcd, to be brought up for sentence > next morning, and tho court adjourned, i Morning came, and with it a crowded court bouse. As I walked from the tavern, I saw tho guard approaching with , Sawyer, Bridge, Sen., and Bridge, Jr., ; with downcast eyes and tottering steps, i in their midst. Tho prisoners entered the ■ court room and were seated. Tho Sheriff i commanded silence. Tho prisonors rare, . tho tears streaming down their frice B , and ■ their groans and sighs filling the court i room. I fixed my eyes upon Judge Eg- ’ glcston. I had board him pronounce seni tenco of death on Fuller for the murder of i Warner, and upon Fields for the murder

of .Morphy. . But here was a still more solemn scene, 'An aged father, Iris favorite soil and j his wife's brother—all standing before* him, to receive sentence of death. The face of tho Judge tyas pale; his Ups quivered, arid ibis tongue faltered, as he addressed tho prisoners. Tlio sentence of death by hanging was prunounc-, ed, hut the usual conclusion, “And may! God have mercy on your souls,” was left struggling ' for utterance. The time.fori (he execution wits fixed at a distant day; but.it soon rolled around. The gallows wis creeled; on the north bank of Fall Creek, just above the falls, at the fool,of the rising grounds you may see from the cars. The hour for the execution had come. Thousands surrounded the gallows. A Seneca chief, wilh Iris warriors, was posted; near- .the brow of tho hill. Sawyer and Bridge, Sen., ascended the scaffold together, were executed in quick succession, arid ‘died without a struggle. The'vast andicncc were in.tears. Tho exclnmaiton. of the Senecas was interpreted—"Wo aio satisfied." An hour expired, The|bodies wcra'lsken down and laid in theirleofljn?, when, there was seen ascending the scaffold Bridge, Jr., t tho last of tho His step was*feeble,, requiring the aid of the Slieriff.—-Tho rope was adjusted. He threw his eyes around upon the audience, and then down upon the coffins, where lay .’exposed the bodies of hi 8.father arid undo. From that moment ’his.wild, gaze too !clearly showed that the swrio hrid been too much for hfs, ybiulifiil mind. ! Reason had partially left her throne, rind; ho stood; wildly * looking at the crowd, apparently.«nconscidua - of bis .The last minute had come, when JamesBfown Ray, the Governor of the State,' aijiiorinced tp tho immense as-' scmhlngo thrit iho convict wns pardoned. Never before did an audience more heartily respond, while there was an universal regret that the executive mercy hrid.leen deferred to the last moment!—Thus ended the only,-trials whore- convictions of murder weio'ever had, followed by the ex ccution of while nien, for kilting Indians, in the United .'Stales.

■ IFor ihe InJUni KjtHIIu. I Oxford and her Collegca.' )' SDHHER m. But the greatest attroction at Oxford is ] the Miami University. Like pale Luna < as she glides up tho heavens in full rotnn- 1 dity, causing the blushing stars li> dwin- ! die into nothingucEs before her approach. ! Or like the snn, throwing such a llood of t golden light over all surrounding objects ( that when light is tho topic, nothing hut t the Aulhiir of light himself can be named f in comparison. So is Miami to Oxford and her Institutions, back in past history from 182-1, her name t by this time ought to be a household t word among herfricrids. With sucii an illustrious lino of D. D.’s for her stan«l- 1 ard bearers ns Bishop, Jnnkin, JIcMnster, * Anderson, and tho present incumbent, : Hall,- it would bo nnpanlonablc- if her ( reputation were not established. . Sho'i sends off 28 graduates this year as shown 1 in the catalogue,which swells the whole ’ number to G05 who ha% - o received their* diplomas of this college.. 0? these 1ST | me ministors of- tho gospel, 17*2 aro law-; ( yers. I cannot give tho number these ! professions get of tho class just grridita- ' ted. The largest class of graduates in ( any one year was in 1353, when 35 re-' ceived tho sheep-skin. An outside view| of tho buildings is exceedingly..fincLTIicy j Were snowy white ns I first approached j them, and my-first aim' wns to have a’ view from tho observatory. Oh, tlio 1 delightful scene! On tlio east tics the; fhost enchanting (ampus 1 ever saw. Here; and'therc a yoke of chums emerging from j the grove or just entering, arm in arm,! looking; like mice, so gteat the liiglit of! tny position. Stretching out to the Eouth | and south- west jics as grand a landscape I as 1 ever saw*, with the Junction R. R. f passing through it. Oxford is fully seen | on (he west and north,from';center to cir-| ctimfcrence.. All, round here, rind on tho ! checks, sides of windows, in tho lodging rooms,-nil about, I find full of-pencil nndj knife marks. I saw no room for. Buck* ■ irighnm’s name,.had be’(ok disposed to! inscribe it. I noliceil a - little couplet, j which maile mo smile, something Itko this; j A ninn>V name, like a monky's face, ‘ j li often seen in a public place. ( My first visit to the University was on j Tuesday of Commencement w ; cek. Dr. i E. Thomson, President of (he Methodist i College at Delaware, addressed ijio Ero-' de!plrinn:nnd Eccritean societies. It was! treat, I assure you;.to sit in that beaiitifnl grove where nature has done tier best, all glittering over now with lantornvand listening .to one of nature's hrightcit jewels'illumined by science's brightest rays. On the following evening a 3Ir. llilligan. froni: Pennsylvania; jcclured before tho Mi'ami Union.Literary Society, i iA- portion j of-tho graflnnling class spoke oil Wetlriefiday; liit’tho best were-placed last oh the lisl for Thurstlny. .Ouc'gont of; 1C _.winter6 had a ptoniincul' place in the, das?, spoke finely arid received a diplotna,' Ho is; the. f’youngest cvor.grhiliiatod.at this place.

I (From tho LooUitllo Courier.] •* t The Westminster Review on American Politics. . i. The July number of the Westminster Review, which may be regarded as the organ of Knglish radicals in both politics and religion, has a long article upon the manifest destiny of the United States,— It contends that a revotntion is silently working its way in our country ns surely' as was that of 1776. Indeed it cites the causes of the severance between (He colonics and England, ami dwells upon theta as parallel diseases now at work on our body politic. The arguments, however, [Used to establish its theory are based op* on misconceptions of tho real condition of this country, and npon false reprosen* tolions which arc assumed as facts. Foreigners arc over anxious to diseant upon thedements of dissolution supposed to exist in this country. /They do hot well consider (ho fact (hat our. form of government tu different from their own. { Causes which would lead to a revolution in soma of the sovereignties of the olden world have no inllticnco here. Tho genius of our institutions'is entirely differjent, and men uponiho oilier side of the Atlantic cannot understand what is prosperity and'what is decline in this union ; of sovereign States. The conduct of a 'political party that would make the throne of. England totter npon its firm foundations, would .disturb’ no one here. Orators hero may fulminate terrors from the .slumpand newspapers may mako their col- , iimns glow with (ho fires of political dts* ' aster without doing one particle of harm/ ill is different in monarchical formq of i government wheio the .freedom of speech : and flic freedom of the press are both pul under what are esteemed healthful ‘rcstnclions, • ; The Review before us foresees terrible evils that are to spring from tho subject of slavery. Wo do nat look upon the institution with such forebodings on this side of the Atlantic. Tho people who mako slavery (heir bobby here and go for disunion and revolution and every other disaster, are not such fearful men -as the English reviewer thinks, nicy are gennlly a band of fanatics whom most &[ the people neither respect nor fear. ■ There arc conservative men enough in tho country to keep in subjection all such restless and fiery disturbers of tho public peace. They always have been kept in subjection andthey always will to.' The trUopatrioh of the country, whether living North or South, are not going to sacrifice the best interests of the nation to gratify tho' mad follies of anyvclasa of political, social or moral factiomsla. There ia enough good in the country to counterpoise' all such evil?, and that good will 'continue to exist, and to exert itself when (hero ia mvd of it.
