Under the pretence or ab!ailing pa-ty efrorts, Mr Cole man has wantonly called np par ty ecimg". With what I have to (iy on the catifcs which le<i to the death of the young gentle mar,, ! w.ll however mingle as little of party as pofTiblc. The public leem to call for infor -1 nat 10 1 concerning the murder, I he fades which follow, are ver baliy communicated to me by j an intelligent gentleman from! Uolloti, and they are strength- j ened by written information- In Cofto.;, as here, th* feder al pmty have ior (tveral years made it a point to difeounte nance the celebration of our in < tirptndence, allerting that it is! inconfillenc with a cordial a i iry j with Great Hriiain. With them I therefore, to be confident, the! celebration has every year be-; coming more and more a farce. Flic iepubiic.au party in Botlo have, h iwever, celebrated tile tluy wi ii fplendour, and this i year, elated with the lair prof-: pvCl of repubiicanizing the Rate, it was commemorated by them with ui.ulu.il rnagriiticcnce. Finding that they arc defeend ing in t!.e date, witiiouc per. aps| the power of retarding tlicrr fall, he. lederal party, as a date trick, had tins y-.-ar recourse to a com memoration of the day. Re ■ Living as an expedient, to c-d ----ebr.te it, every thing pofiiffic ! was to be done to make a good exterior appearance, i hey wen lufficiently early in their arrange-; i.ems to fccuie to tliemieives Faiiulel Hall. As the republi cans were to be together, they iiad therefore houle accummooa cion to icek. The republican committee, of which Mr. benjamin Audio, fa ther of the deceaied, and known during the reign of tenor as the writer ot Old South, was chair man, w need on the keeper of the Jcllerfon Inn, at the foot of GiyL Hill, and engaged-with him, bv written contract, to pro vide dinner for four humhe-, pc i lons. He agreed to l urmlh four hundred with dinner a: o n dollar each, die company find j ing the.r own wines The inn keeper had ictidtd in but about fourteen months. As loon as the written agree ment was made, the chairman ot the republican cormni tee, hearing that the Fun:ban amb f iador and Mr. C.ithcart had ar rived in town, lent them a note of invitation to du.e, which was accepted ; belides theie the com mittee invited eighteen gentle men ; there were therefore twen ty cxi 1 * covers to be fuinilhed which was Hated to the J ether son in:.-keeper, and to whom it j was added, that, an adequat. compenlation would he a,ad; for the extra number.--The da: was joyfully (pent. A few days after, the com mittce, with ns chairman, caked copay their bill, which was Ra ce cl by the landlord to be lever, hundred dollars. i'ne commit-1 tee offered him four hundred dollars, according to agreement, and ti ty dollars for the twenty exua, but he u.li k’d on levcn hundred dollars, aliedging that; m bridging an extra nutTioer the! agrtemenc was broken. The Inn keeper laid tnat he had con luktdvw.h T. O. Sell tit Ige, the o.urderer of young Aulb.n ; v. !.o had adviled him to demand the leven hundred dollars, and oife red to carry on a prolecutiou a gamtt tiie chairman of t le com i ittee for us recovery, gratis Hie commit ee then offered the and ior J one hundred dollars or the tx.ra iiUiUier, but lie re iking c > accept it, the commit tee retired In the next number of the Re pertory. a h-'Vi .j ‘> H - , iY, < partly cd*•,. t ,y’ - nidge, the r.mittce and th. | jrepubiictin party generally v.en-1 •stacked as a let of feurvy fel l(,ws who had not paid the poor Inn-holder for their feaftintr. The Repertory is published by a cox-coi'nb of the name of Park, who copying Mr. Coleman, imi tates his meanness. Finding that Selfridge, for lit tle p trty purpose, had thus abet red extortion, tire committee, to get rid of ti e Inn-holder whom •.hey Found to be a federal iff, paid the leven hundred dollars. After the money was paid the attacks continued in the Reper tory. Mr. Autiin, chairman of the j committee, being told on the ;ex hange, as a lort of disgrace, J that the man’s bill was unpaid, 1 he cciwtred that it was not, and added a relation of the part that Stlfridge had aded with the landlord. NeJtc day Selfridge met Mr, Austin in the ftreec, and ‘afleedhim if he had stated that |he had advised a prosecution r j i He arilwertd that he had, and he 1 Mould and would prove the sass. | l laving fwor.n that he would ei ther make Mr. Austin “ eat Iks words or make an apology, ’’ Scl ri :ge retired : ihe fame evening, without ! j . , o’ J \ further communication with Air. ( Hujliu, Stlfridge sent a note to a federal puper “ polling him as a liar, a fcou idrel, and a cow ard.” Mr. Austin received a , | proof Left of the note the night before it was published, so that on the lame day it was thus an- Iw■ red in the Chronicle, a re | publican paper— “ Coilidering it derogatory to enter into a ncwfpaper concro jverly with one T O. Stlfridge, lin r*ply to his inlolenr and false j publication in the Boston Ga , zrtte, of this day ; if any gentle man is desirous to know the fails on which his impertinence, s foun ded, any information will be giv en by me on the fuojecl. “ BENJAMIN AUSTIN. “ Button Auguff 4,” 1 When Selfridge saw the note, : lie ioaded his [liitols, put then*. - in his pocket, and went to fetk - Mr- Audit), iwearing that ht f would shoot him wherever he 1 could find him. Selfiidpc went - to one of the insurance compa iics where Mr. Au-iin was, bui i it happened that he was in a ; hack room, where he was not . leen by h;s fell seeker. 1 Unable to n.eet with Mo t Austin, walking up a Itreef, he met with his lon, a youth of 19. Selfridge accosted him. As they 1 were alone no one can tell wii.iu , conversation took place, but c witness who lived opposite to - where they Hood and saw them, • Rated in his evidence before the , coroner's lnqueft, that they had . | been ! u- a few moments togeth jer when Sclfridge pulied a pistol • (from his pocket and lodged the 1 contents of it in the bosom of ;hc young gentle ran, who im : mediately expired ! The jury, confiding of eleven ederalids, gave a verdict o “ murder, with malice afore •bought ” Mr. Russell, editor of the Centinel, a feueral paper, was on the jury. I nele are the fjdt as commu nicated to me, and I have no 1 cause to doubt them. Fhc murder is as cruel as it is cowardly. JAMAICA RUM. !

Ihe objeft of their mee ting was to agree on lores inter nal regulations for the govern ment of their people. The coun !-(l was called by the Fhophet (a brother of Corn Plainer,) who, you know, is a religious enthu Halt, and has, for fonit lime pa ft, be.n very zealuully engaged in endeavouring to inculcate cer tain religious dottrints in the iu uians, to prevent them from dunking wiulkey, and to per luade cnem to adopt tie modes ot iiving and arts o’ tne write people.
