[National Intelligencer.
We learn with pleasure, that the
proprietor of the steam-ship Robert
Fulton, is preparing an armament, to
consist of four 6 and two 6 pounders
with 24 muskets, for the protection of
property belonging to her passengers,
and against the possibility of robbery,
from the piratical villains that are in
festin r the neighborhood of Cuba. This
armament, ; igether with the great ad
vantage wnicii this vessel possesses of
throwing bailing water, must afturd a
protection adequate to an attack from
nay of the picaroons lurking in those
seas. Her engine is one of the most
power'll!, and is capable of thriving
double the quantity of water (boiling
hot) which au ordinary fire engine now
in use in the city, cmi. It is asserted,
that she can discharge from her boiler,
ten hogsheads of 150 gallon s each, in a
minute, and throw it nearly to the dis
tance of point blank musket range.
Who knows but this method may.yet
be re.-jr.ed to as a national d -fence.
and as a new weapon to cArry the wai
into an enemy’s camp! [N. Y. Gaz.
One of the most remarkable instances
with which we are acquainted, of illu
sion produced by theatrical exhibitions
occurred in a small town in Maryland,
several years ago. In the evening of a
day on which a militia muster had been
held at the town, Othello was performed
in a bam by a strolling company of
players. A piece of canvass was let
down before the door, and a centinel,
one of the train bauds, stationed at it
with a loaded musket, to prevent a
gratuitous gaze from the outside, and
the irruption of unruly persons. The
man contrived to put his head in from
time to time, and to catch thus the in
trigue of the play. He was observed to
be much agitated during the third and
fourth acts, but the cause was not sus
pected, Suddenly, just as the Moore is
about to stifle Desdemona, he turned
impetuously in, leveled his piece at the i
actor and shot him dead, exclaiming
with a fury, “Nod—-d Negro shall
ever murder a white woman in my pre
sence, if I can help it.” We have this
anecdote from an eye witness, a gentle
man of unquestionable veracity, who
attests that the poor centinel was not
intoxicated, and had the raputatiou of ,
good nature and good conduct.

The Coronation Medal.
A Gold Medal, in a red Morocco case, was
given to each of the Peers. The Silver Me
dais were not profusely distributed. They
were thrown among the boxes and here and
there a smart contest took placaforthe prize.
—in the Earl Marshal’s box two gentlemen
were struggling for a Medal, which fell be
tween them, but which, however, neither
of them found. When they had resumed
their seats, a young lady, who had been a
quiet spectator of the contest, put her hand j
down between the benches and took up die
Medal, much to her own satisfaction and
that of her family. The medals have on
the obverse, a head of his Majesty, in a ve
ry high rebel, crowned witli laurel, the
edge is rai-ed, and encloses tile inscription, ,
“ Georgius IV. 1). G. Britanniarum llt-x
P. D.” I'lie reverse presents the King sit
ting in a chair, holding a bason in his hand.
Victory erntrns him in the presence of the
three kingdoms* which are represented by
three figures, the foremost holding tint tri
dent for England, the second Ireland, and
the third Scotland. The three figures rest
their fight hands on an altar, which, in a
panr.ei, has the snake With his tail jn Ins
mouth, the emblem of eternity * meaning
that the union of the three was to be. eter
nal. Behind the figure of victory, are the em
blems of Peace, agriculture and commerce.
Over the figures is the following inscrip
tion :—“ i’roprio jam jure, anina palerno .
and beneath thorn are the words “ luuugara
tu s Die Juki Six, Anno MJ) C C CXXI ” the
workmanship of the reverse is excellent.
The figures are exquisitely cut, particularly
that o,- his Majesty. The head on the ol> !

At a late Circuit Court in Litchfield coun
ty, Conn, the Plaintiff recovered g 100 U of
tne Defendant, who was indicted for poison
ing ihe Well of the plaintiff On examin
ing the well a bag filled with every thtag
obnoxious, parts of the body of an animal,
nunei’al poisons, Btc. Stc. was fun-id, which
was proved to have been placed there by
the defendant. On the trial, the history of
Benson’s family was developed, as Well as
that of some of his witnesses. Perjury,
burglary, larceny aed adultery were among
the number. The defendant had poisoned the
well in consequence of the plaintiff having en
deavoured to break up ah adulterous inter
course of the daughter of the defendant. The
fattier bad endeavoured to get his son in the
st i e prison, to prevent h'S testimony about
p i o ling the well ; and the wife of the tic
tenda it had died of pois in, administered by
the father or son. It appeared for a while
on the trial “ as though the damned had
been summoned to an earthly tribunal.”
The Iron Timing, now enclosing the
grand public square and City-Hall, has been
imported into New-York, from Liverpool,
though it might have been had cheaper in
this country. This want of Patriotism as
well as Economy, haa cu 1?d forth not a lit
