Case.-I-t has been seen that this cae has been decided against the claim of the plaintiffs, upon a rule of construction, by which the ex- tent and nature of the franchise granted to them by the act of the legislature, is explained to embrace nothing more than the ordinary facilities of a corporation, for the.purpose of building the bridge, and the right to re- ceive certain rates of toll, from such persons as m;iry choose to pass their bridge. According to this con- struction "aill the franchises and rights of property enu- merated in the charter, and those mentioned to have been granted to it, remain unimpaired, at the present time." At the same time it is admitted by the Chiet Justice, in immediate connexion witli this statement, ol the nature of the franchise of the bridge, that "its in- come is destroyed by the Warren Bridge, which being free draws off the passengers and property, which would have gone over it, and renders their franchise of no value." To this result thie Court come by the "rule of construc- tion" which they adopt,for interpreting the meaning of the charter. By this rule, a meaning is given to the charter, which it is remarkable no one thought of for a period of forly years. During that period a property grew up to the.value ofthree hundred thousai-ffofolars. and was saleable for year at that rate or upwards, in the market, depending solely on an opposite construc- tion given to the charter, by the universal sentiment of the public ; while by the new construction the property confessedly is not worth a cent, and had the public been wise enough to have discovered this rule of con- struction at an earlier date, it never would have been worth more, than a quarter part of the price at which the shares were saleable for a long period of years. The rule of construction under which the public had been led to regard the franchise as of some value was, that the legislature in authorizing'the corporation to take certain rates of toll, for the period of seventy years, by necessary implication engaged not to revoke that au- thority within the period named, nor to do or authorize to be done, any aict which would obviously and neces- sarily deprive them of those tolls. Under the construc- tion which has received the sanction of the Court, the legislature has authorized the erection of the Warren Bridge, which having been paid for, out of the proceeds of the tolls drawn by it away from the incoine of the Charles River Bridge, is made free, and it consequent- ly renders the franchise of the other bridge of no value. When the proprietors of the latter bridge complain of this result, the.Court say, that in order "toentitle them-- selves to relief, it is necessary to show, that the legis- lature contracted not to do the act of which they com- plain." Now this does not seem a very natural con- struction. The legislature grants me a certain privil- ege, as an inducement to me to lay out a large sum of money for the accommodation of the public. After I have begun to enjoy the privilege, the legislature grants an equal participation in the identical privilege to an- other person, with authority to expend the profits re- sulting to him therefrom,-in a way that shall extinguish the beneficial interest which I [till enjoy'in the privil ege-reserving to me however a mere nominal interest in the original grant, tile value of which is deliberately -t- onally destroyed by the act of my neighbour, expressly aut io-rzPB-i.-,2tijsilature. I complain of this mockery of a pretended respect for my right., w-hie 1 am deprived of its only value, and I am told by the- tribunal to which I resort for redress, that to be entitled to relief, I must show not only that the legislature granted me the privilege which I claim, for the period specified, but that they contracted not to take it away within that period, and not to authorize any other per- son to deprive me of it. This is a refinement in the construction of grants, for which we know not where to seek a parallel. The Chief Justice goes on seriously to inquire wheth- er the charter contains a stipulation on the part of the State, that it would not do the acts by which the com- plainants are deprived of the whole value of their fran- chise. "It must be admitted," he says, "on all hands, that there is none, no words that even relate to another bridge, or to the diminution of their tolls, or to the line of travel." It certainly could not be expected that any such stipulation should be found there, though it may be thought that such words will be necessary to the validity of grants hereafter. It may be necessary to stipulate, that when a privilege is granted for a specifi- ed period, that it shall not he taken away within that period. The Chief Justice infers, that as no such words. are to be found in the charter, and as none can be im- property of any private individual, or public body is an invasion of the most sacred principles of public justice, and such spoliation cannot be vindicated by urgent circumstances of State necessity, or any plausible pre- text of State-advantage whatsoever, since no necessity can vindicate what is in' itself unjust, and no public advantage can compensate a breach of public faith."- Scott's Life of Napoleon, vol. 1, page 20. Errata.-In the last paragraph of the article on the Charles River Bridge, in Friday's paper, the two following sentences were rendered unintelligible by slight typographical errors. We are not disposed to contest this principle, under the lim- itations here stated, yet there may be a difference in thie principle of construction. by which the purpose of abandoning the right to interfere is to be inferred, in one case, and ion the other. That the right ot taxing a property created under a franchise might be re- linquished in express terms by the legislature, is admitted by the court," &c. Maine Legislature.-The bill which was introduced into the legislature of Maine, authorizing the appoint- ment of an additional Judge of the Supreme Judicial Court, has been rejected on the third reading in the House by a vote of18 Sto 40.- A bill to prohibit the sale of rum, brandy and other spiritous liquors, in.less quantities than 28 gallons, except by physicians and apothecaries, and declaring all contracts relating to such liquors null and void, has been referred to the next session of the Legislature, and ordered to be pub- lished in all the newspapers in the State. Court of Inquiry.-The revised opinion of the Court of Inquiry on the cases of Generals Scott and Gaines is published in the Globe with the approval of Presi- dent Van Buren. It not only acquits Gen. Scott of all h~n.i *in flip .rnrfdia i both of the Spminnle anr Creekp a-i L- that all the cases of thlis sort, which have occurred in this State, and as fai as our knowledge extenids,in other States, in which compensation has not been provided for the parties injured, are wanting in the grand dis. tinctive feature ofthe VWarren Bridge case. They have none of them been granted or carried into operation for the sole or chief purpose of evading the toll authorized by thie previously existing grant, nor without some well founded allegation of public accommodation aifd utility, not afforded by the previously existing improvement. These circumstances create a clear distinction between the several cases, and they are sufficient to obviate any alarm which might have been felt, for the fate of other public improvements, from their liability to embarrass- ment from this cause. It is not unlikely that other cases exist which might have been brought within the principles which were relied on for redress, by the pro- prietors of the Charles Ri('er Bridge; but there would have been little ground for apprehension,had those prin- ciples been recognized by the court, that the adventur- ers, as they are called, in these improvements, would have been too strongly guarded in the enjoyment of their rights, for the true interest of the cause of public improvement. So far indeed is the principle contended for, by -he comnplainantAin this case, front being at variance with the unifurni practice in this State, and we believe in other States, lhat their claim was founded on a prin- ciple engrafted into thle constitution of this State, and which forms the basis ofall our legislation for public improvements, viz: that private property shall not be taken for public uses, witlihoutJ cs!npenfation. J .-a-ll our ji-aLrTor"r the construction of turnpikes, canals, and railroads, it will be found that provision is made for affording compensation fur private property taken or injured. Tlie consequential injury, ari;sig from tile compe- tition of new improvements, dema-nded for the public convenience, it is true, it is not the practice oftthe coun- try to provide compensation for, and it ought not to be. The proprietors of a work of public improvement must take their chance of its being superseded by a work of different character and higher degree of utility, called 'for by the public exigencies. The proprietors of a turn- pike for example, have no right to complain that the travel upon their road is diverted, by the superior im-, provement of a canal, a steam boat, or a rail road.- But the proprietors of a turnpike, a canal, or a rail road, would have a right to complain, if another turnpike, canal, or rail road were authorized, designed to accom- modate the same travel, and affording no additional fa- cilities, but established solely for the purpose of depriv- ing the graritees'of the first, of their right of taking toll. This is precisely the case of the Warren Bridge. It was established, not because the public. conveniences required another bridge, but because the public reluct- ed at paying the toll exacted by the old bridge. In other words the public demanded a free brige ; and a free- bridge they certainly had a right to have,provided they would pay for it. But to establish a free bridge during the existence of a contract made by the legislature for the establishment of a toll bridge, it is evident-was an interference with that contract. It destroyed the prop- erty created by the contract. It destroyed the value of the shares in the bridge stock, which individuals, plac- ing faith in the public grant, had purchased for large sums of money. Still the public had an undoubted right to establish a free bridge-to take the property vested'in the toll 'bridge for a public use-upon the simple condition of making compensation therefore. We have made these remarks upon the decision of our highest legal tribunal, not for the purpose of find- ing fault with the individuals of whom it is composed, or of endeavouring to diminish the confidence of any one a i F i rit _of that tribunal, but to show that the question has beentffl o i this case, by a rule of construction, which does noteet ," stantial merits of the case, and that notwithstanding" this decision, the proprietors of the original bridge have an equitable claim for compensation tor the loo,. f their property. It is apparent to the common semse of every one, that their property has been taken away from them for a public use, and the question still re- mains for the consideration of the legislature, whether they will continue to withhold it from them without compensation. To do so would be to persist in an act at variance with the uniform character of the legislation of our State. It would shake the confidence which has hitherto been placed in the promises of the legisla- ture, and would fix a stain on the character of the Commonwealth. It would be an act upon which all reflecting men, wherever they may be found, would have but one opinion. We cannot make a better close of these remarks than by citing the following appropri- ate passage, from the most popular writer of the pres- ent age. In a moral point of view, the seizing upon the sc~uire~rarrp- izar~sl--~,~~L~OII~B~6~W~((~7P~rplru~lr -s~s~-~Cu~IIOI~IBP-~~~ ---IP~LLI~ which have not yet been proved,) the Armenians, Ar- menian catholics, and Franks, have certainly suffered much less ; so that my estimate may be very near the truth, which is the thing I seek. I remember in 1819, when little was said on the subject, seeing much more activity in the grave-digging department, though every body else says we have had no such plague since the great one of 1812. We have an American here, named Charles Brown, formerly in business at Boston, and now just arrived from Egypt, who says he has a spe- cific which disarms the plague completely of its sting. Under its protection he offers to put on the clothes of plague subjects, to lie-down in their feverish beds, and to expose himself in all manner of ways; but, as lie expects to be paid for making known his discovery, I fear he stands but a poor chance of- being called upon to favour the eastern public with it. A regularly or- ganized quarantine in this country is totally out of the question, and were it attempted we should have its evils without its benefits ; but there could be no harm in es- tablishingl hospitals to receive the sick, and lazarets for the purification of those who have been exposed to in- fection ; these would cost little, and the disorder, by proper attention at first, might thus be prevented from spreading without impeding trade in the slightest de- gree. For purification, perhaps, Mr. Brown's specific might be turned to account Every man who labours to mitigate the ravages of this horrid disorder is entitled to praise and public encouragement. The minister oil the interior has so far recovered from his late attack, as to appear almost daily at the Porte ; but he looks more like a spectre than a man, and cannot apply himself to. the most trifling occupation without showing weakness and lassitude. On the 14th a Tartar arrived from Persia, bringing despatches for the embassy and the British govern- ment.

Prom Fraice.-The packet ship Utica arrived from Havre at New York on Fiiday, bringing Paris papers ti, Feb. 24. A new project had been discovered for assassinating the King, formed by a man named Cham- pion, who had partly constructed an infernal machine, which h he considered an improvement on that of Fieschi. He was arrested before the completion of his machine, confessed his criminal design, and hung himself. A fire broke out on the 7th, in the Royal Palace at Naples, which was burnt down so rapidly that the Queen mother and the Prince of Syracuse had bare- ly time to escape. The magazine of the French garrison at Bona, in Africa, exploded on the morning of Jan. 30, containing 12,000 lbs of gunpowder and a million of musket car- tridges. Tihe military quarters of the fort were all destroyed. The commanding officer, Capt. Bunard his wife, with 108 men, including officers and soldiers were killed, and 102 were wounded. The preparations were going on actively in France for the prosecution of the war in Africa. Tihe British ship Jane and Margaret of 500 tons, which left Liverpool Feb. 5, for New York, with 200 steerage passengers, and several in the cabin,/including ladies, was fallen in with on the 14th, 20 miles from IVickford, in Ireland, a complete wreck, and deserted, and it was feared that all persons on board perished, as no news of their escape had been received. There is room to hope however, that they had been taken off the wreck by some vessel. There was a slight improvement in the Cotton mar- ket at Liverpool at the latest date. There was also some little relief in the money market at Liverpool and London. LoSDON, Feb. 22.--We stated in the Times of Mon- day, that so severe had been the pressure of money in Liverpool at the close of the preceding week, the com- mercial classes in that town had been discussing the proprki ty of applying to the Governuient for pecuniary assi'nct'e.. T'he meeting, to which allusior is made in our previous statement, was held on Monday last.- We are not fully informed of what took place at the meeting; we are informed, however, that while the East India, tlhe West India, and the Mediterranean Auclti,:ns s'-eme'l to think that Governiment assis- tance t ,.iT imi ,. j 1 .. .. "-,,,l. sary, to enable soiume ol'tl ti nerchant -. .i. trades to those quarters to avoid ruinous--s7l.sJl property to meet their engagements, the American As- sociation did not think an application to Government was either desirable or necessary.. As in any applica- tion of the kind commercial men should be united, and as union could not be obtained in the present case, it was understood in the course of the afternoon that all intention of applying to the government for pecuniary assistance was, at least for the present abandoned.- The favorable accounts from the United States, and particularly the rise in the price of cotton on Monday, had re-inspired their confidence, and sanguine hopes were entertained that the dificulties which seemed so formidable on Saturday would gradually disappear, and render the interposition of the Government unneces- sary. FEB. 21.-Letters received from Liverpool announce it to have been the intention of some of the leading new infernal machine, he was arrested yesterday mor- ning. Material evidence was found in his lodgings, which, with the depositions against him, left no doubt of his intentions. 1He at length made a complete con- fession, and revealed circumstances of. a most aggravat- ed nature. Being left a hurt time alone in his prison, he took advantage of tlhe opportunity and hung himself with his cravat." After the attempt of Meunier, Louis Phillippe ac- quainted the Emperor Nicholas with his escape by an authographl letter. It is the usage in diplomacy to an- swer similar communications by a letter also written by the sovereign himself. A letter froinm M. Nesselrode was received a few days back by thle toreiga office, but no answer irorn the Emperor Nicholas. Our Cabinet is eilever enough to embroil itself with England and Russia at the same lime.-Jourinal du Commerce. .'g itrs -The preparations for the Constantine expe- dition tire going ;brward with great activity; 40 bag- gage wagons and 200 men of the baggagectrain are ex- pected in our town. Thle transports are ,eiingpolletted tbfor thie conveyance of Ithe various supplies and 3,000 horses. The horses will be embarked at Port-Venidres, Mar- seilles and Toulon. At Port-Vendres will also be em- barked part of the troops destined for this expedition, especially those furnished by the division of the Eastern Pyrenees. About 3,500 men will he embarked at Port Vendres, 3,5UO at Toulon, 2,500 at Orain, and 2,500 at Algiers. The Fire at .'aplcs.-A letter of the 9th inst. from Naples, published ini the Augsburg Gazette, contains the following :--"Tle fire at the Royal Palace, which was momentarily subdued,aganin burst outin the after- noon, and continued to burn with great violence -until late at night. In order to preveoit it; cr'umirunicating to the Theatre Son Oarlus, and to the front of the Pal- ace, a wall of eight feet in thickness was raised. This expedient succeeded. The cause of the fire is not known. At five o'clock in the morning the flames reached lhe roof, and made such rapid progress that the Queen Mother had scarcely time to escape. The libra- rv and the ma-nificent collection of paintings belong- ing to his Majesty, have been destroyed. Thie Prince of Syracuse narrowly escaped. The minoke had- filled his apartments when assistance reached him.--He was taken from his bed in a state- of insensihilitv. The apartments of' the young Queen have escaped uin- touched. Several plunderers have been arrested. The fire was not completely extinguished till five o'clock this morning. . SPAIN AND SOUTH AMERICA.-M. Espinosa, at- tached to the extraordinary legation from Mexico to the Queen of Spain, passed through Paris a few days since ,on his way to England, whence he will embark for Vera Cruz He is the bearer of the treaty of peace and re- cognition between Spain and its old colony, signed at Madrid on the 28th December last The Slave Trade. STOCKHOLM, Feb. 3.-The King has instructed the minister for foreign affairs, fbr time execution of the treaty between Franice and Sweden, for the abolition of the slave trade, to give, for such French ships as the French government should declare to be employed as cruisers against the slave trade, li- censes to search, in the seas agreed upon in the treaty, such Swedish and Norwegian ships as may be suspect- ed of being engaged in that trade, or to be fitted out for thie purpose of carrying it on. IBATAVIA.-By accounts from Batavita we are fur- nished with some melancholy particulars of the fate of the crew and passengers of the Charles Eaton. Capt. Lewis of the ship Isabella, in search of'. them, entered the barrier reefs at Cumberland's entrance, and brought up at Murcnimy's Island, where he found William D'O- ley, youngest son of Captain D'Oyley, of the, Bengal army, and John Ireland, a boy belonging, to the Charies Eaton, about 17 years old, both quite naked. He bought them with axes of the natives, who had been kind to them, having taken them from a small Island called Boydang, where all the rest of the crew and pai3sengers had been murdered by the natives of an island called Aureed. It appears that those on board had left the ship on two rafts. The Captain, Captain and Mrs. D'- Oyley, and family,and part of the remaining passen.' Jers and crew on one raft, and a week afterwards the first and second -mates, and the rest of ithe passengers and crew on another. Both rafts happened to drift on the same Island. The boy Ireland was on the second raft, and he states that on landing at Boydang, lie saw the eldest son of captain D'Oyley, who told hini that his father, mother, and the whole of the people on the first raft, had been nmurdered--alad named John Sex- ton and himself onlyexcepted. Ireland further stated that they murdered these two also, and all that were with him on the second raft, only leaving hini and the child, Wm D'Oyley, alive. On Captain Lewis's landing on the island, the natives had taken to their boats and gone offt. Hle fund the skulls ofalI the white men, whhic Tic '--i.rh hnim. He destroyed with fire CONSTANTINOPLE, Jan. 18.-The plague has now positively diminished so sensibly as to be of little fur- ther interest in a public point of view. The miortality has been great, but those who have adopted the exag.- gerated idea that it amounts to 100,000 and 150,000, are certainly very far from the true mark, which I should not take to be beyond 25,000; neither do I form tils estimate without some data. By order of the Greek patriarch a list has been drawn up of all the Greek bu- rials, from the commencement of the malady up to the 5th inst.

"On seeing the Commissary and his as- sistants, Champion was seized with a violent nervous trembling, and was so completely overcome, that he was for some time unable to answer the questions put to him. M. Vassal immediately commenced his search.

HULL. To Messrs. Charles Russell, John Tenney, David Joy, Geo. Blake, Gco. J. Tucker, H. Chapman, Wm. J. Whipple, Commnimllee.' The Cabinet.-The Washington Metropolitan, which it is said, is the organ of the Administration, gives the following version of the story of Mr. Forsyth's resigna.- tion : We have reason to believe that the following will be found the true state of the case, as embraced in the leading facts~ The proposition to undertake, ithe new mission to Austria, -originated with Mr. Forylth himself, and not with the President. Austria,in national rank holds, and has held, fbr many centuries, the precedence in diplo- matic etiquette among all the countries ot Europe, and the honor of representing the Republic of the United States at' such a court,' as well as opening and estab- lishing, in the person of the first minister, official and permanent national relations with it, was rightly deem- ed by Mr. Forsvth an employment of the highest hon- or and dignity'for an American statesman ; while it would have been not less complimentary and gratifying to the court of Austria to have perceived in the inew ambassador, a cabinet minister, and a gentleman who was known, throughout Europe as the able head of the State Department,' during the administration'of Gen- eral Jackson. There waa.-therefore, a peculiar fitness m .S- <-. plied, the same answer must be given as was given to the Providence Bank, when it was decided that an ex- emption from taxation could not be implied, in a grant which'contained no reference to taxation-the right of taxing property held under a charter, and the, right of doing an act which entirely destroys property held un- der a charter, being placed in the same category. He proceeds to argue further in support of this con- struction, from the language of the act of 1792, by which West Boston Bridge was established and the charter of Charles River Bridge was extended. After stating'the facts, and citing a part of the act, he says "it appears then, that by the same act that extended this charter, the legislature established another bridge, which they knew would lessen its profits; and this too before the expira- tion of the first charter, and only seven years after it was granted, thereby shewing, that the State did not suppose, that by the terms it had used in the first law, it had deprived itself of the power of making such pub- lic improvements as might impair the profits of Charles River Bridge.". It is an obvious answer to this reason- ing, that the erection of West Boston Bridge, although it might diminish the amount of profits of Charles River Bridge, is justified on grounds entirely different from any which apply to the Warren Bridge. The public convenience, and the accommodation of a different line of travel evidently required the erection of West Bos- ton Bridge,but no such considerations called for the e- rection of Warren Bridge; that being promoted solely D P 'NDEiNT CHRON141)'L.E ~e~a~ " 3N MASSACHUSETTS LEGISLATURE.

These reports embrace such facts of general interest as have been discovered, in the prosecution of the surveys thus far, but not the minute details which will be given in the final -report. Strong expectations have been entertained that coal mines would be discovered within the limits of the state.- These expectations, we learn frore the Albany Argus. have not been realized by the investigations which have been made thus far in this survey. The district of country embraced in the southern tier of coun- ties bordering on the state of Pennsylvania, where there was supposed to be the greatest probability of dis- covery of coal, has been found to consist of sand stones and shales, which support the coal strata only,and it is ascertained that the coal region does not extend beyond the Pennsylvania line. The statement which was made a short time since of the discovery of coal at Haver- straw is contradicted. A large quantity of a material which was dug out of the earth for coal, proved to be nothing but a mass of black shining slate. Frequent mistakes of'this kind, it is stated, have been made, large quantities of this material having been discovered at Troy, -at Van Wie's Point, and along various parts of the Hudson, ,which possesses none of the properties oi coal but *its black and shining colour. Expectations appear to be -entertained of the discov. ery of rock salt. This material has not yet been dis. covered. Salt springs only are discovered, from which salt in great quantities is manufactured, but at the ex pense of a great'consumption of fuel. Numerous beds of marl have been found in various parts of the State which are useful for manure, and also of plaster in th( canal district, which is considered as- valuable as th( article brought from Nova Scotia. Masters Commandant.-On the last day of the lat session of Congress a bill was passed, and approved by the President, providing that all Masters Commandan in the Navy should thenceforward be called by the tith of Commander. Four or five days afterwards the nev President, with the advice and consent of the Senate as we were infornied by the Globe, appointed nineteen new Masters Commandant, a title which it was supposed that Congress intendedto abrogate. Ohio.-The Legislature of Ohio at the present ses sion, his authorized the establishment of a number o new banks There are already thirty-two banks existing in the State, the aggregate capital of which paid ii amounts to $9,247,296. The circulation of these banks on the 1st of January -last amounted to $8,326,974, th private deposits $3,463,450, and the deposits of the government of the United States $4,126,483. The amount, of specie was $3,153,334, of which abou1 $1,3000000 wore :in -the six deposit banks. The whole amount, of notes ,discounted was .$18,178,699. X -fr..Madison's Papers.---Congress lately appropriated $30,000 for the purchase of Mr. Madison's manuscript reports of the proceedings of the old- Congress, and ol the Federal Convention for forming the Constitution. We learn from the Richmond Enquirer, that the family are preparing for the ,press five or-six volumes of man- uscripts, independent of those purchased by the gov- ernment, including a volume devoted to Constitutional Doctrines, and four or five of:Correspondence. In the Senate of New York on Friday last, a bill be- ing under consideration for making appropriations oi the State's share of the Surplus Revenue, Mr. Beards- ley moved a reconsideration of a-vote granting an annuity of $5000 to Hamilton College.

The discussions have, it is said, been rather warm, and it is believed that majority of the Cabinet are decidedly in favor of revoking the order, forthwith. The matter is unsettled; but-those who have had, within the last two days, the best opportunities to know the views and dis- position of the President on the question, say that he is afraid to repeal the order, and will not do-it. Further, they say that he will not shut up the land offices, nor, in any other way, evade or relax, or do away with the measure,-except by delaying the regular land sales by auction' till Congress shall have an opportunity to act on the whole subject. The lands subject to entry can, in the mean time, be entered, as usual,-and the amount of entries, at present, is not on the decrease. The Judiciary.-The Senate, on Thursday, passed the resolutions for so amending the constitution as to provide for -the appointment of two additional justices of the supreme court; and yesterday rejected those which proposed to confer on the legislature power to re- organize the court of chancery, reduce the number of circuit judges, appoint additional vice-chancellors, and regulate the right of appeal. Some of the powers enumerated in tie latter resolutions, it is conceded that .the legislature already possess, and others a majority of the $Senate deemed it inexpedient to grant. The Senate -have also passed a bill authorizing the appointment of three commissioners to digest and re- port a judicial and equity system for this state. Mbanjy argus. JACKSONVILLE, March 16 -Col. Warren informs us that he has just'heard that two Indian rafts had crossed from the west to the-east side of the Suwanee River, eight miles feelow Charles Ferry, supposed to have been used by Oseola and 'his men, coming into Gen; Jesupjs camp. The rafts were discovered on the 12th inst. Maj. Hart, who arrived from Newinansville on Tues- day last, gave us the following information which he obtained fromn Mr. Harris, bearing despatches from Gem. Jesup to the Governmenrt. Jumper and Little Cloud, Abraham and some other chiefs, were in. On the 9th inst. the day Mr. Harris left Gen. Jesup's head quarters, Tigertail came in, and reported that he had brought with him 16 Indians- men, women and children. He drew rations for them. Little Cloud commanded at the battle of the Wahoo. Micanopy had sent for.a horse to bring him. General Jesup sent the horse requested. The horse fell down with Micanopy ,on him, and hurt the chief so much that he could -not come in.

B. B. False Alarm.-A paper of this morning informs the public, that seven hundred and thirty-five thousand dollars in Bank Stock, and twenty thousand dollars of City Stock, are to be sold at auction on Saturday next, by order of the Directors of the Savings Bank. it is added, that curiosity is active ito know the cause ofsach an immense sale, at a time when Stocks of almost all descriptions are sold at a sacrifice. For raising wantonly the cry of fire, a penalty is pro- vided by law ; but our community is so accustomed to idle reports in the newspapers,that little agitation is pro- duced by them. The probable object of the paragraph re-- ferred to, may fail in consequence.of the very attention that will be drawn ito it. Two important deficiencies in the elements of alarm must be at once discovered. One is, that the City Stock is offered not by the Sav- ings Bank, which is not guilty of owning half so much, and probably would not sell a dollar; had it tn times the amount. The other error, apparent from the adver- tisement, is, that the Stock offered is seventy thousand two hundred dollars, instead of seven hundred and thirty-five thousand. If the desire to know the -catr-e of this sale be reas- onable,it may easily be gratified. The stock must be sold, ascertain the precise value of the residue, only one tenth being offered. To make the division of profits! among the depositors, required in the coming season by the Bye-laws of the Institution, it should be known to - a single cent, what all the property is worth ; and lihe would be a bold man, that should resolve to a fraction the market price of shares in twenty-five Banks, when no quotations have been possible for many months. 1 suppose there can be no doubt, that some profit will arise from the investment of the Institution in Bank Stocks, and the depositors, who have more concern than any body else in the result, will know it, when their dividend is declared. S. MR. UPHAM'S LECTURE. MR. EDITOR-1I am happy'to see announced in your paper, that Mr. Upham's Lecture on Col. Pickering, is, to be repeated this evening. This gentleman's course' of seven lectures, delivered before the Society for the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge gave such general pleasure and valuable instruction to all who had the good fortune to hear them, and so widely established his reputation as a popular, interesting and really use- ful lecturer, that I deem it superfluous to say any thiing Sin his commenndation. I merely wish to remind his friends aud the public of what the advertisement states,: that the Lecture of this evening is an independent one, i not delivered before any of the regular literary'societies! of the city, and that therefore the audience will depend upon the general interest felt in the Lecturer and his subject. This interest will be manifested I trust, by a large and overflowing assembly at the Temple. The lecture, as is well known to those who have heard it, is chiefly a deli-ieation of the private character, and an, account of the private life of Col. Pickering, in which were some incidents of thrilling interest, particularly his violent seizure in Pennsylvania, by a band of ruffians in disguise, who kept him bound to:a tree 'for twenty days. It contains nothing that need give oflbnce tq the most morbid political sensibility, and will be enriched I have understood, by some valuable facts and interest- ing anecdotes,'communicated to Mr. "Upham, since he delivered it a few weeks ago, before the Mass. Histori- cal Society. Its entertaining narrative and instructive lessons, will amply repay all, who devote an hour to attend it. COURT CALENDAR. Reported for the Boston Daily Adveutiser.

UTICA, March 21.-A cold blooded attempt was made last Friday evening, to murder Mr. John Schuyler of New Hartford. He was met, as we learn, at Mr. Ha.mblin's tavern, about'two miles'from this city, by Samuel Bennet and Lyman Smith who had an old grudge against him, and had threatened vengeance whenever an opportunity should offer. One of these men advanced upon Mr. Schuyler and grasped him to prevent resistance, while the other inflicted upon him ten or twelve, wounds in tihe breast, side, and neck, with a Spanish dirk. Mr. Hamblin, the only person present, stood in his bar, and saw the men scufflEhng. He supposed that the stabs were mere feints, and no harm was intended, until he saw a jet of blood issue from one of the -wounds, towards-the ceiling. He,ush- ed out anti caught hold of the man who had the dirk but immediately received a blvw in the face which struck him down senseless. On recovering, he found tile wounded man lying on the floor, respiring through the wound in his neck. The ruffians had left the. house. Pursuit was -immediately made, and they were taken in a few hours, by our police officers, at a hpmuse of ill fame in this city. Mr. Schuyler's recovery is doubtful.-Observer.

According to the terms ot said Act, the property of the Company was divided into 60 shares, upon each of which a sum of not exceeding 125 dollars, was assessed and actually paid in, making in all $7500- but the said sum having proved insufficient to complete thepro- posed undertaking, and it being deemed inexpedient at that time to require a further sum trom the proprietors, resort was had to a voluntary loan, on the pledge of the rents and profits accruing from the privileges of .the Canal, no part of which could be real- ized by the Stockholders uitm 1I-aWi loan was paid off. Eleven years have passed away, and onlyr'itre -a3000 have yet been paid, leaving $200W yet to be paid, before t -if ders can receive any thing on the stock. Wherefore, by the concTir- rence fall the Pioprietors, excepting two hares, we the Presi- dent and Directors of the Quincy Canal, are authorized to pray forsuch an amendment of the seventh section of their Act of In- corporation already alluded to, as will enable them to assess a fuirt hr suin not exceeding $30, L pon each share of the stock, thus making a sufficient sumto pay 6ff all the burden of debt now due, and enabling the Proprietors t0 foresee within a reasonable time. some prospect of a small compensation for the labor and risk of the undertaking, which has proved eminently serviceable to the public in Q(uincy, though not yet to themselves, as well as for the loss of interest for 11 years, already incurred. All which is respectfully submitted. R"ENEZER J\\' ETT, ) DANIEL BAXTER, Directors. SETH SPEAR, ) COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS. In Senate, --, 1837.

We discharge, a painful duty in announcing the death of the Hon. Joseph C. Yates, late Governor of this State. /-te expired on Sunday, at his residence in the city of' Schenectady, to whichli he has been confined several .months by illness. Gov. Yates has been for many years associated with lhe judicial and political history of this State; although since his retirement in 1824, he has not been in public lile, excepting as a pre- sidential elector in 1828. The event of'his death was communicated by message from Gov. Marcy to both Houses of the Legislature.--.lbani! .rgus. Baltimore and Ohio Rail Road.-We learn from the from 100 to 1- 2 f.et above that river, and havinga steep descent to its banks, the interventig land buing at pretseti covered with forest trees. Thins hlocality is in- e.x'hatiLst, le and the slate is uf an excellent quality, cuntatninfa no p.rites and is capable porresisting, as mnay s-e seetn on i'o s ef.xp.ised surface, the action of air and , w.-iter Ibr ages, without undergoing decomposition. The shepts of r lati weie )observ'ed to run E. by N. and \V. by S., and they dip N. W. 70'. Slates, from one to, six luet square, nity be. s'iht with great ease from this rock, and in antiy quantity desired. A great natural ad- vantage is presented at these localities, by the nearly ver- tical position of thie strata, while they uoccu'pv elevated ground, and may ibe transiportedto the river by a regular slope of the land, rail way bci ng made for the dis-lance. which is only 2010 rods.. :o valuable '& locality shouldi not be allowed to0remnain unf\ brought, and I am happy * to learn that it is in contemplation to begin operations at this place early next summer. While at this locali- ty, some calculations were made respecting ig the cost of, Iransporting the, slate; and from data furnished by ,ent.ientmt.i well acquainted with the navigation of the 'e nobscit, it appeared that it could be landed in Boston, at the cost of $8 per ton. Now the Welsh imperial slates sell for $27 per ton, and this locality will furnish an equally good article. 1 feel no hesitation in saying, that, in my opinion, Maine is capable of supplying alI the United States with good roofingslates. The whole section from Williamsburg to Bafigor, appears to be composed of argillaceous slate; 1' have observed it on either side of the river below that city. Doubtless other quarries will be found, equally valuable with those of Williarnsburg, but I have not yet visited any which can be wrought so advantageously." CITY AFFAIRS. In CommoN COUNCIL, on Thursday, the petition of the Primary School Committee, that a committee of the City Council may be appointed to examine several lo- cations selected by the Primary School Committee whereon to erect School houses, was referred to the committee on Public Lands, in concurrence. SThe Council concurred with the Board of Aldermen in the adoption of the orders establishing the bounda- ries between the City and Roxbury. Messrs. Waters, Williams and Austin. were appoint- ed a committee, to be joined, to consider what measures may be requisite for the City Council to take in rela- tion to the surplus revenue now about to be divided among the several cities and towns of this Common- wealth, with liberty to report by ordinance or other- wise ; and to this.committee was referred an order from the other board, authorizing the. Treasurer to receive the City's portion of said revenue ; sent up for concur- rence. The report of the- Committee on the subject of re- moving the jail to South Boston, accompanied by or- ders for the sale of the land and buildings in Leverett street, and for the erection of a jail, and jailor's house, at an expense not exceeding $45,000, which came from the other board, for concurrence, were under discussion for some time, when the Council adjourned. Pennsylvania.-The Pennsylvania House of Repre- sentatives,, aftermuch discussion, has passed a bill mak- ing appropriation for internal improvements. The whole sdm appropriated for the present year is $2,833,000, of which $1.400,000 is to be expended on various works which are the property of the State, and $1,433,000 in aid of about thirty distinct rail roads, canals, turnpikes and bridges, belonging to several corporations. The following is copied from the Obituary of the London Society of Friends, fbr the year ending 1.836:- " In our last number, we noticed as a remarkable fea- ture of the obituary, that of those whose deaths were recorded in it, an unusual proportion had attained to ad- vanced age ; but in the present obituary that propor- tion of this class is still greater. Out of rather more than 200 adults, there are 90 persons trom the age of 70 to 98, presenting an average of full 80 years: of these, one-fourth are from 78 to-98, presenting an aver- age of full 85 years, and 10 are from 90 to 98, present- ing an average of full 94 years.
