Meanwile several of his neighbors collected together, anx ious to secure the man and prevent his expected fall—He saw them, mistook ; them for bailiflk, ran rapidly along the roof of Mr. Wallace’s store, proceed ed to that of Mr, John Quinn’s stores, over which he rushed with as much se curity as a sharp clawed cat, or mus cular ourangoutang, till he came to the gable, from which he jumped with dauntless intrepidity, upon an adjacent dwelling house, a descent of about (we believe) eight feet, imagining, no doubt that it was neck or nothing with him. From, thence he proceeded to Mr. Smith’s roof, where he stripped a por tion of the chimney of bricks, and squeezed himself into one of the funnels, pelted the people who wished to secure him, with these missiles, as long as his supply lasted. In this situation he was seized, secured with ropes, and lowered down to an immense multitude of the market people, who were gazing with astonishment at the funny gambols of the frisky frisseur. An Indian Juggler, while exhibiting his performance in France, actually swallowed a sword, or metallic blade. The unfortunate Juggler had the sword held by one end in his lingers, while the other end was in his stomach ; something surprized him, he left hold of the blade, and it descended immediate ly beyond his reach. His astonish i ment, subsequent pains, and lingering i illness, can better be conceived than de scribed. Several months thus passed ; away, when he came under the care of professor Dubois, of Paris, who extract ed the instrument from the right groin, where an extensive ulceration had ta ken place. The blade, after its remov al from the body’ of the sufferer, mea ( wired ten inches and a half in length, 6 and one inch in breath ; as its widest I part. The last account, dated, one ii month after the operation, states the | patient to be doing well. ■■■ From the Richmond Enquirer. 'I, KENTUCKY CURRENCY. “ Jefferson County, K.

This seems to be founded on the I principle ol the fondness of many ani mals to associate with each other, and is effected merely by placing a common mirror in a suitable trap, so situated that the animal, in passing to and from its usual haunts, may see itself reflected, and is somehow or other curiously im pelled to approach the glass, and conse quently entrapped—for instance, in or der to take minks, muskrats, See. a common box trap is made use of, with a mirror in the extreme end, [opposite the mouth ;j this being placed on the margin of a river, or pond of water, fre quented by them—they will necessari ly see themselves in it. and, like Narcis sus, fall in love with their shadows, and are instantly taken.

The House of Peers in England appears to have been the mo del by which they have endeavoured to pattern, what in imitation of coivtley ' phraseology, they have called the Up per House. Many of the constitutions were trained while ji e were yet reck ing from the slough of colonial subser viance. Fortunately we had not the material to build up a House of Lords. A little tinsel and trollis work, s.tuck awkwardly on a plain democratic fabric, was the nearest approach we could make to that puppet show of legislation. I know no other reason \vhich can be given for the qualification of property which is so generally required of our senators. No such qualification is re quired in the United States senators, and 1 am yet to learn that they have been less able or less faithful to their trust from the wartt of it. Some vague idea that the senate should represent the property, while the representatives should reflect the numerical population see;ns to have governed their acts. If this be the principle, they have not pur sued it. They should have required the electors to be men of property, and have given votes in proportion to the quantity ol’property. A Bank charter would have been a good model for such a constitution; or if a classical prece dent, would be more accordant to good taste, the comitra centuriata of the Ro mans, sqch a guard could answer no other good purpose than to save the pro perty of the rich from plunder. This assumes that the citizens are divided in to poor and rich, and that a conspiracy does or may exist among the former to plunder the latter. This is not true. A great part of every well organized so ciety, and almost all in ours are posses sed of some properly. They are not so poor as to be entirely dependant on their daily labor for their dqily bread, nor so rich as to be exempt from the necessity of personal exertion for support. Were it I rue, as long as the rich had the physi cal power, a 1 ; legal protection would be useless. When that shifted to the poor, paper constitutions would be torn to tatters. In fact little difference as to the property exists between the sena tors and representatives, and its utter insignificance only has saved this pro perty qualification from abolition. In till die states, the senate is a smaller bo dy than the other house.—in all, a more advanced age is required. In most, the senators are elected for a longer pe riod than the representatives. North Carolina and Georgia furnish the ex ceptions to this rule. In most of the states the senate is a permanent body, tho’ many of the members are changed every year or every two years. Alary land Ss the two be/ arena med states are exceptions. In lew is the numerical po pulation made the basis of the senato rial representation. In Massachusetts, and several other states, the number of the senators is limited, and they are e lected by districts.—-a u Maryland the senators arc elected by electors chosen by the people.—ln Georgia and North Carolina, each county sends a senator chosen at the same time, and by the same voters of the representatives, and for the same period.—ln Kentucky, the senators art chosen from senatorial dis tricts. They hold their seats for the • pace of four years, but one fourth go out annually. The number of senators is founded on the numerical white male 1 population over the age of twenty-one ' years. In the Constitution of Georgia, the senate appears to be very inartifi cially constructed. It has no principle on which to rest. It appears to be an awkward imitation of the United .States’ senate. There, however, the senators are representives of distinct sovereign ties, exercising no direct control over each other. But the several counties of the state stand on a very different foot ing. There is no limitation as to the numbers, nor has the senate any, cha racter of permanency over- the repre-! sentative branch. In a representative democracy, the rights and interest of all ought to be regarded & preserved as far as practicable—but whore the in terest of a minority differs from that of a majority, the smaller interest must yield to the greater. In other words, it is better that ten men should be happy than only five. It is right and just that those sections of the fouptry which con tribute most to the general defence of the country should have the largest share of political power In the forma tion of a senate, it is important first, that that body should be much less numer ous than tjie other branch—that it . should be permanent, leaving it in the i power of the people to change the whole of its members gradually—that in the Southern states, it should be form ed of a mixt ratio of freemen and slaves as in the House of Representatives of the United States—that the members should generally bo more advanced in life. I have already given those rea sons from which it appears to me cor rect, that one body should be less nu merous than the other. The Senate should possess a character of permanen cy. Many objects of legislation, and those the most important, require in or der to be done well, time for minute in vestigation and deliberation.—Say a ge neral reform of the civil and criminal 1 code of a state. A minute enquiry in to the practical effects of the existing laws, will be necessary to show their detects, and where to apply the reme dies. Such enquiry can never be made during a session, should a committee be appointed to examine during the vaca tion, and report at the next session un less the senate have a permanency, they will report to a different body, of which i they may not be members, Should a report lie made, and no person particu larly interested in calling it up, it is very apt so slumber on the table during the session. If it even he discussed, those who are best acquainted with the sub ject are not present to solve those doubts and obviate those (JifiicuHies which may naturally arise. All business must be done in a single session—nothing which requires time and investigation can be perfected. Six weeks is all that can be allowed for legislation for a great and growing people—Laws are made in a hurry and consequently ill made. The object intended to be obtained is laudable, but the means taken to attain it, utterly inadequate to attain the every thing is expected from the measure pro posed, whether a penitentiary or a turnpike road.-But little proportionally is obtained. The people, and with them, the legislature get into a passion, and the law is repealed, or so modified, as to become nugatory. I need not quote examples—they will readily sug gest themselves to every mind. A per manent senate would in a great mea sure remedy these evils. If they found they could not advisedly legislate at one session, the measure would be postpo ned to the next. A committee of sena tors could, during the interval, collect all the in formation qn the subject necessa ry, and report the result of their enqui ries with the evidence at the next meet ing to the House.—Members of the bo dy, they would be present to explain what might be doubtful or misconceiv ed. If the public attention was at tracted to the subject, all the talents of the state would be called in to assist in its elucidation. When they legislated, it would be with all the light which could be shed on the measure—if im practicable, it would be rejected; if practicable, all necessary means would be adopted to ensure its success.—The permanency of the body would ensure it from that vaccilatioq which arises from temporary excitement and change of opinion. Let a wise measure be adopted, but subject to popular and plausible objections—lt will at first be disapproved, or perhaps odious. With out some permanency in the senate, such a measure will be at once repealed before its good effects have time to show 'themselves, and before the public mind can become enlightened on the subject. Let the senators withstand the shock, and the measure will soon be as much approved as it was at first dis liked. If public opinion remain un changed, the law will and ought to be repealed. It ought to be, not because even t!.e permanent opinions ofa majo rity of the people are always right—no such infallibility belongs to any man or body of njeq. The permanent opinion of men for many hundred years, was for burning witche?, vox populi vox du. Jhe voice of the people is the voice of God. I answer in the words of a Vir ginia legislator: Was it so when they cried “ crucify him, crucify him ?” But the best government is tliat with which tiie people are best satisfied.—No mea sure can be so good as to overbalance the evil of permanent dissatisfaction d rnong those for whose good it was in tended. Men do not like to have even 1 pudding crammed down their throats. I BROWN, ’ i'rom the Washington A'rws, Extra. NEWS OFFICE, } Washington, (Geo.) July 26. y Last nighi a man by the name of James Vineyard was shot in attempting to rob the stable of Osborne Stone of a horse. His wound is considered mor tal by the physician who was called to attend him. This man being on the point of death, made a full confession of his past life, mid particularly of what ; brought him in tips part of Georgia. ' From his confession and other cornlbo rating circumstances, we are enabled to lay before the community, the outlines of a deep laid plot to defraud and, rob the citizens of their goods and chattels, It appoafs that a society has been formed of counterfeiters and horse steal ers which embraces the slates of Ken tucky, Tennessee, Alabama, Georgia, North and South Carolina. This so ciety has agents in these state which pass the counterfeit notes and sell the horses stolen. This James Vineyard, who is dying, was branded and whip ped in Huntsville, for horse stealing; broke jail 4th April last, and bended his steps towards Georgia. He arriv ed a few days ago in this place, on foot, with a man by the name of Henderson, who Vineyard says, is his uncle. Hen derson who calls himself Smith, and sometimes Owen, came to this place on horseback at the same time. This Hen derson started yesterday at about 12 o’clock for Augusta. He has in his possession about $ 40,000 of counter feit money; he rides a fine bay horse, with a good saddle, holsters, and mar tingale. He is a stout athletic man, a bout 40 years of age. Yesterday after noon two of the same gang left this place for Augusta; one whose name is Robert Cressup, is about 5 feet 10 inches high, stout made, black hair and eyes ; he wore a black surtout coat. The other by name John Ailsop, is a bout die middle size, dark hair and eyes; he was dressed in mixed homespun cloth. The intention of these gentlemen it appears, is to go to Augusta, Savannah and Charleston, where they have asso ciates, to pass their counterfeit notes and to sell the stolen horses their com rades are to bring to them from Tennes see and Georgia. There is a connec tion between them and the individuals lately detected at Tuscaloosa; an ac count of which was inserted in this pa per a few weeks ago. This is all we can say at present: should any thing more transpire, we shall hasten to in form the public of it. The citizens of Augusta, Savannah, and Charleston must be on the alert. Two deputy sheriff’s of this county are in pursuit of Henderson, Cressup and Ailsop. From the Charleston’ City Gazette; July 23. The Court of Magistrates and Free holders, convened for the trial of sundry free persons of color, charged with an attempt to raise an insurrection in this state, have in addition to those already condemned to bo executed, unanimous ly found the following guilty, and pass ed upon them the sentence of death, to be carried into execution on Friday morning, the 26th inst. on the Lines be tween 6 and 9 o’clock : DICK, belonging to Mr William Sims.
