I should he able, perhaps, to tee tinbeauty and propriety of introducing his wife and her courtship with those other lovely animals into an electioneering handbill. I should then be a blealso-io discern his noble motives in making an unprovoked attack upon several respectable citizens cf this township, merely for expressing their opinions, and .-ueing one man foi believing the truth of the accusations against him whilst 1 and several elh

His guilt is becoming every day more
apparent, and it I were a scholar like
him, I could convince every candid man that sufficient proof of his guilt
appears upon the very face of his pro
ceedings, without any othrr testimony. All who wish to know th? truth, and have had an opportunity of roi.versinu with him on this subject, have seen guilt enough in his countenance to s-a tisfy them. Those whom I have een, say that he looks a gw-lty a a sheen

John B. Francis has been elected Gov

Joseph M. Harper, Franklin Piercp,
Penniiig M. Bean, Henry Hubbard and Robert Burns, are elected to congress from rov Hampshire. The journeymen carpenters in the city of New York have tuened out fir higher wages their cause is just. They have received liberal contributions frori other mechanical associations to enable them to hold out.
Steam has been successfully applied to plows in Pennsylvania.
In France, the official repoits say, that
up to the 1st of January hst, there had been 230,52-1 cholera patients of those 94 G6G died. Government expended for food, medical aid. &c. 1,300,000 francs for the relief of the poor.
A gold refiner in Rutherford county, N' C. Christopher Cetrh'cr, states that he has coined at his establishment, since the 18th of June. 1831, in jp $2 ,r0 and $1 00 pieces, 101,300 dwts.J and fluxed 250.780 dwts.
A late arrival from flavanna brings an
official report announcing that as nearly as coubl be estimated 17000 persons had fal-

The 230 tonof ice seat out to Calcutta
in the snip Tuscany from Boston was stow

infirm, except one. A to what he says
he can prove that Mr. Hewitt has said, I know the piintipal part of it to be false, and I believe the rest is. I was pt sent and heard the conversation wl(hvRobtit Walker, alluded to in his postscript which was in substance as f Hows: Mr. Hewitt said he saw but one way for Mr. Washer to escape ut ter destrurtion, ai.d that was to com promise with J. Brutus on the b. st
erms he could; and that, if Mr. Wash
rr showed a disposition Jo behave hive
an honest man, he would himself fr the ?ake of his family, assist to save him from total ruin. That he could cover countenance him as a decent or an honest man, and did not wish such a man in the neighborhood; that he had formerly esteemed him, but now he felt it his duty lo assist in brinein him to punishment, Ice. &c. Mr. Walker said he believed Mr. W?asher was guilty, and he would advise him toretire to some remote place, fcr. This
is not all the conversation, but it is a
fair sample, and enough to show the
1 rift of the whole. Lven suppose that
he can prove these uuitnpoi tar.l chit
chats, and that I am neither rich nor
learned, would il follow that he is not sruilt) ? How absurd is such a conclu-
-ion! et guilt, on the eve of detcc tion, often falls into such absurdity.
He says in a note attached to his
mcmoriable handbill, "Mrs. Hewitt is the niece of my wife, and is the only
person described in the charge that
lived at my house at any time. ' Compare this with the .charge, gentle rea der, and ask yourself whether hi con
science did not supply some things not
even hinted at in the charge. In
letter to Robert Walker he says: "Not
knowing from whose infernal hand to
