Abraham Antone, the Indian who was executed in Madison County on the 12th inst had committed three mur ders previous to the one for which he suffered The first was a child of his own, which he burn cd to embers on the hearth, be cause he was disturbed by its cry ing. The second was on a man in Canada, who he said insisted him by calling him Indian clog. lie followed him several da$s

Tiie third was of an Indian whom ne shot at a raising on the Su6quehaiinan, on pretence that he oad wronged him of part of a certain bounty rue fourth was on Mr. Jacobs tor which he. Was hung. Antone's daughter i)uirdered another female through jea lous, at d. awing away her In dian suitor ami was executed for it borne, years since at Smitntield. ....

This was a plan to get him within his reach j for, coming opto Jacobs, betook him by tne hand in a friendly manner, and slipped a long Unite from his sieeve. with which he gave him several wounds, which proed mortal, and again escaped He was. how ever, after some time arrested. There was another murder wnicb it is supposed Antone committed. which he denied, and tne evidence wras not strong enough to estab lisb the tact Albany Adv. Fr0m the Ccluni&ian Observer Jackson There is not to be found in the wride universe, a man so pure, spotless, and unexeentionaote, in his no i ce)tionabie, in his political and moral character, who aspires to aspires supreme powrer, as is General Jackson, who declines to take a part in its attainment. This re commendation alone, with a virtuous people, would be considered as sutticient to unite them in his support. But when we superadd to his unsoiled Patriotism, t lie noble deeds which he has achieved both in the field and m council, it appears a matter of impossibility, that a free and intelligent, and virtuous people, could overlook His merits, for the prostituted Candidate of a Cabj met. whose only claim to the at tention of the Leading Men, is the gift of Office with which thebaic intrusted The people have, however, at last become sensible ot the solemn importance ot steerincr clear of all the Members of the Cabinet, in fixing tu$n our next President A Kevolunon in nolicv. in nrineinles. and in men, is perceived to be necessa ry, in the National Government i' I.' : .

can be shuttled olT, without di honour, and the most corrupt and profligate imputations. It is not so generally known as it ought to be, that Jackson is the warm and zealous friend of Na tional Industry, Internal Improv ements, and all that enlightened system of a wise Statesman, which brings wealth, comfort and happiness to a people. But he has no leading men in his favour This is his only crime He has no legion of in triguers scouring the country from north to south He has no till?? IIIV.

Partoftherr had been set free on a rising ground at a distance; they no sooner heard the roar of battle than they came thundering down over the intermediate hedges, and catching the contagious madness plunged into the tight with equal fury. Sublime as the scene was. it was t o horribly to be long contemplated, and Komana, in mere , gave orders for destroying them; but it was found too dangerous to attempt this; and after the last b- a!s quitted the beach, the few horc that remained were seen still engaged in the dreadful work of mu tual destruction. itEMGlOUS COURTSHIP A young gentleman happening to sit at church in a pew adjoining one in which sat a youtlr !ady f. r whom he conceived a most sudden violent passion, wa ir irons of entering into a courtship on the spot; the place not suiting a formal declaration ti c exiency ot the case suggested the foN j lowing plan: He politely banded bis fair neighbor a Bible open, wit1' a pin stuck in the following text 2d epistle f John, verse 5th kAod now I hoeeeh thee lady not a9 though 1 w rote a new c. nunaudment unto thee, but that w ;ich we had from the heginni.
