iam irs i..vv.--(:.v?in;.i:its hum:. Vit Ksm.Kc.ii, (Mns.) July Oth. The following account of junie proceedings cf 1 1 10 citizens of this town, whh It will excite the attention of the public, was prepared by a witness of the act detailed, and the correctness of tho account may be relied en. Our city has for some da s part been

the theater of the most novel and startling scenes, tht wc have, ever witnessed. While we regret (hat the necessity for such scenes should have existed, we are proud of the public spirit and indignation against offenders displayed by l lie citizen.-, and congratulate them on having at length banished a class cf individuals, whose shameless vices

and daring outrages have long poisoned the ?! 'lings of morality, and interrupted

the relations of society. I or ears J a?t, Professional (Jamhler?, destitute cf all sense of m ral oblijaioi;s unconnected with society hy any of its ordinary ties, atd intent only on the gratification of their avarice have in t le Yickshurg tluir place of rendezvous and in live very bosom of our society, boldly plotted" tin ir vile and lawless machinations. Here, as every where else, the laws of the country

public square of the city, and information was received that Cabler was coming tip. aimed and resolved to kill one of the Volunteers who had been most active in expelling him fom the table. Knowing his desperate character two of the corps instantly stepped forward and arrested him. A loaded pistol, a large knife, and dagger were found on his person, fill of which he had procured since he separated I'rom the compa") . To liberate him, would have been to devote several of the most respectable members of the company to his vengeance, and to proceed against him at law, would have been mere mockery, inasmuch as not having had the opportunity ef consummating his design, no adequate punishment could have been inflicted on him. Consequently it was determined to lake him into the woods and !:-!uh him which is a mode of pun

ishment provided for such as become

obnoxious in a manner which t4ic law cannot reach. He was immediately carried out under a guard, attended b

a crowd of respectal.de citizens tied to a tree, punished with stripes tarred and featheied, and ordered to leave ihe city in forty-eight hours. In the meantime, one of his comrades, the Lucifer of the gang, had lcen endeavoring to rally and ai m his confederates for the

i purpose et tescning mm which, now-

ever, lie lasic-u u ait. ompnsii. Having thus aggravated the whole band of these desperadoes and feeling no security against their vengeance the ci'.ij 'iis met at night at the Court house, in a huge nun. her, and there i .11 i j

passeil I lie toiiowing resolutions: Jl. !,(!, That a notice be given all Professional Cambicrs, that the citizens of Vickshurg ate rcsnlie .', to exclude them from this place, and ilsvicinitv:

in presence of the assembled mul i'.ude.

All sympathy for tlie wretcnes was

completely merged tit detestation and

horror ol their crimes. i wuoic procession then returned lo the city, collected all the Faro Tables into a pile and burnt them. This being done, a troop of horsemen set out for a neighboring house to the residence of Herd, the individual who had attcmptcd'to organize a force on the first day rf this disturbance, for the rescue of Cabler, and he had since been threatening to iire the city. He had however made his escane on that dav, and the next

morning, crossed the I3ig Clack, at Baldwin's Ferry, in a slate of in liscrible consternation. We lament his es

cape, as his whole course of life, for the last three years has exhibited lh most shameless profligacy, and been a continual series of transgressions against, the laws of God and man. Tlie names of the individuals who perished, were as follows: North, Hub

lams, Dutch Bill, Smith and Aid all.

Their bodies were cut down on the

morning after their execution and buried in a ditch.

it originated. The laws, however se

lf there is any thing in the world that will make a man feel bad, except pim--ing his fingers in the crack of a door, it is unquestionably quarrel. No nan ever fails to think less of hiuwelf after than before out it degrades him in his own eyes, and in the eyes of others and w hat is w orse, blunts his sensibility to disgrace, on the one hind, and increases it to the power of passionate irritability on the otlur. Some things look very well in theory which do not answer at all in practice; and it is possible for a man to reason

But there was existing in the bosom of this unpretending boy, a latent genius, which the monotony of country life could not quench, and an energy of character which needed only the force of circumstnnces to draw it out. He was yet young, but the restlessness of a vigorous mind, still immature, could not be subdued. It wanted more scope and expansion, and it longed with a consuming desire, for enlarged duties and a more energetic life. Fenny loss and but poorly educated, (his hoy determines to leave his
