THE TRIAL IN VIRGINIA.
We arc confident our readers will excuse us
for referring once more to the agitating scenes in
Virginia. We bare stated that Thomas Ritch
ie. jr., went to Richmond, three weeks ago, to
answer to the laws of Iris country for the conse
quences of his disastrous rencontre with John
IH anipden Pleasants, esq. He went of his own
accord, without any requisition from the gover
nor of the Commonwealth. He went because
he thought it was Iris duty to answer to the laws
which he* had been compelled to transgress;
finding his innocence, and feeling every confi
dence in the justice of the good people of the
Old Dominidh. He reached Richmond this Jay
three weeks, crossed over into the county of
Chesterfield, which is on the opposite side of the
James river, in view of the metropolis, and
where the meeting between himself and Mr.
Pleasants took place ; and late in the night ar
rived at the court-house of . Chesterfield county,
about 16 miles from Richmond. Next morning*
he sent lor a magistrate, surrendered himself in
to the bauds of justice, and was committed to
jail; without attempting or desiring to oiler bail
lor his appearance. We pass over the kindness
of the worthy jailor, Mr. Hobbs, who suffered
his friends to see him and sleep with him in the
prison house, but the doors of w hich the prisoner
never crossed aintil he was carried into court.—
He determined to waive the benefit of an exam
ining court, where the magistrates of the county
al- me presided, and the majority of whose voices
might have set him free. He was advised at
once to go before the superior court, and the jury
of the vicinage. 4
The court met on V. educstl&y, the 25tli lilt;,*
Judge Cloptou presiding. On Thursday the
grand jury found a true bill for murder, both
under the common law and under the duelling
aict of the Btatc, and the trial in chief came on
on the following Monday —this day week. —
Jsome delay and difficulty took place in irnpan
riclling a jurv under the new law ol the last
general assembly; and it was not until abouf 2
o'clock on Tuesday that the jury was made up.
Mr. Klournov, the attorney of the Common
wealth, was tiie only prosecutor; but he dischar
ged his duty with ability. The accused was
defended bv Messrs. John W. Jones, (the late
Speaker of the House of Representatives,)
Samuel Tavlor, a distinguished lawyer oi the
city of Richmond, Andrew Stevenson, (whose
character is known to the Union,) and Overton,
a young, able, and rising lawyer of the city of
Richmond. We shall not enter into the char
acter of the testimony. It has all been taken
down by a capital reporter, along with the
■qxvchos, and it is now a subject of consideration
whether it shall bo published in New York in a
{ntuiphlct form! When all the evidence was ex
hausted, the counsel for Mr. Ritchie proposed to
w ane all argument, and send the case at once to
the jurv, but the prosecuting attorney conceived
it to le Iris duty to argne the case. After Mr.
Flournoy had opened in behalf of the prosecu
tion. Messrs. Overton, Stevenson, and Taylor
proceeded in the defence, and Mr. Jones conclu
ded. Wc understand, by loiters from the court
house, written on Saturday night, that the speech
es of the prisoner’s counsel were masterly exhi
bitions of forensic talent. One ol the letters
sa\ s, -The argument closed at 7 o'clock, and
the jury, without retiring, returned a verdict of
•n*< guilty.’ It was received with loud applause.
It is one of the most interesting and important
cast's I ever was concerned in.” Another letter
says. “The jury impannelled in the ease return
ed a verdict of not gailty. They did so with
out retiring from the court-room, fcfoon after
wards. the indictment against Messrs. Giecn
how, Scott, ami Archer (as aiders and abettors)
was dismissed by the Court. The result was
hailed with plaudits by a large and anxious
crowd of spectators.”
To Messrs, Grecnhnw and Scott, (who had
pone upon the field with Mr. Ritchie, had follow
ed him tram Washington to Richmotid, and
resjHctively gave themselves up to the authori
ties of the law—Mr, Grecnhow, about a week
nrter Mr. Ritchie, and after him, Mr. William
•Scott.) we would pay the tribute of our feelings,
if men like them required any tribute of our
feelings, or if men like them required any tribute
for their noble conduct to be paid at our hands.
They were both committed to prison—and they
were lnoth discharged immediately after the ae-
quit!a! of T. Ritchie, jr. Mr. Archer had acted
vs the friend of Mr. Pleasants —and conducted
Hrnsclf throughout the whole transaction with
aH the chivalry and generosity of a gentleman.
Wc will not detain the reader any longer upon
a theme, in which .we have taken the deepest
possible interest. But we hope we may be excu
sej for saving, that whilst we deeply regret the
tragical and disastrous event which has hurried
Mr. I‘lea<ants to an untimely tomb, it was im

STEAM SHIPS TO EUROPE.
Mr. Hilliard, Chairman of the Committee on
the Post Office and Post Roads, submitted to the
House of Representatives, a few days ago, a high
ly interesting report on the subject of the estab
lishment of an Atlantic line of mail steamers.
The Committee approve of the selection of Bre
men by the Post Master General as the termina
tion of the line, and think that the choice of
Cowes, in England, as a touching point is equally
fortunate, as it is the only accessible and safe port
on that part of the British coast. Besides, by
touching there; adircctjand rapid communication
will be secured both with England and France.
London may be reached in three hours, and
Havre in less than nine. The report adds; —
While from that point, [Cowes,] mails can lie
despatched in so short a time to the great empori
um of British commerce, and to France and Bel
gium, they might also be forwarded to Spain and
Portugal. At Bremen the mails for Germany
are to be disembarked, and they will be rapidly
spread overland through the neighboring king
doms and states of that populous region, by means
of rail roads extending in various directions.
Starting upon their return from the most cen
tral port of commercial Europe, the steam ships
of the United States would receive there the let
ters and Other communications of the people
north of the Rhine and the Rhone, destined for
this country, w hile at Cowes they would take in
letters, pamphlets, and other communications from
England and France, intended for distribution
here.
It will thus be perceived, that while even per
fect communication is secured with England and
France, Germany and other parts of Europe are
reached with the least possible delay. These
important advantages are secured at comparative
ly little expense. By reference to the letters from
the Postmaster General, and the documents which
accompany it, it will be seen that the lowest bid
which that officer received for carrying the mails
to England was $385,000, while the expense of
sending them to France would have been $300,-
000, and to Germany $400,000. The route de
termined upon, while it opens the communica
tion with England and France just referred to,
connects directly with Germany, at an expense
of $400,000 only ; thus making the cost to the
government $665,000 less than would have been
required for the service, if it had been contracted
for separately.
The Committee are of the opinion that a line
of mailsteamers between New York and Bremen,
making semi-monthly trips and touching at
Cowes, will almost immediately sustain itself,
and, in a short time after its complete organiza
tion, yield a profit to the Post Office Department.
Independent of the advantage which it will pos
sess in securing the entire mail of Germany and
of the North ofEurope, which contain a popula
tion of one hundred and twenty millions, it will
also receive the Asiatic mail, which, upon the
completion of the continuous railroad under con
tract connecting that port with Adriatic Sea, can
be disembarked at Triste, and sent overland to
Bremen in sixty hours. A large proportion of
the emigrants to this country come from Germa
ny ; and it is assumed as a fact that they would
find in this direct and rapid transmission of mails
a sufficient motive for keeping up a correspon
dence with their friends. From 1832 to 1843 no
less than 181,819 emigrants embarked from Bre
men for the United States. The emigration
from Bremen, compared with that from other
ports of the North Sea, is immense. In 1845
the number of emigrants from Hamburg was
2,600; from Rotterdam about 3,000 ; from Am
sterdam 1,600; from Antwerp 5,041; and from
Bremen 31,016. Taking it for granted that the
amount of correspondence will bear some ratio
to the number of emigrants, Bremen is shown to
possess advantages as a point of communication
which are not to be found in other ports.
There arc other important considerations con
nected with this subject which are adverted to by
the Committee. They say—
Nothing can be regarded as unimportant which
tends to devclope our resources and increase the
facilities of commercial intercourse between the
thirty millions of Germany, demanding every
year a large supply of our products, and the
twenty millions of our own industrious and en
terprising people, engaged in producing the arti
cles which they require. The trade which we
at present enjoy with that country yields the most
important advantages. Some of our products,
which are burdened with heavy duties in Eng
land and in France, enter Germany under light
charges, and in some of the coast States they
pass almost free. Our tobacco pays, upon enter
ing the British ports, a duty of seventy-two cents
per pound; in France, the article passes at once
into the hands of the Government, which monop
olizes the trade ; while at Bremen it is charged
with a mere nominal duty of two-thirds of one
per cent ad valorem. The quantity of tobacco
entering all the ports of France, annually, a
mouuts to about twenty thousand hogsheads,while
the single port of Bremen received last year forty
two thousand five hundred and fifty-one hogs
heads. More than one-third of all the tobacco
exported from the United States within the last
twelve years was imported into Bremen.
It appears, too, from an examination of tables
recently prepared, that its importation into that
port is steadily increasing—for the quantity re
ceived therein 1845 exceeded by five thousand
nine hundred and ninety-two hogsheads, the im
portation of the preceding year.
The importance of the trade in tobacco will be
seen mote clearly by looking to the incresed pro
duction of that article in the United States.
In 1810, it appears by tables Which.accompany
the census, that the tobacco crop of Ohio amount
ed to five million nine hundred and forty two
thousand two hundred and seventy-five pounds,
and that 6f Florida to seventy five thousand two
hundred and seventy-four pounds. In 1815,.
the crop of Ohio increased as it appears by actual
inspection at Baltimore, to twenty six millions
seven hufidred and sixteen thousand pounds,
while that of Florida, sold in Bremen alone,
reached two hundred and thirty four thousand
pounds —some of it competing with the Havana
tobacco, and bringing as high as a dollar a pound.
I ri some of the other States the proportionate
increase lias been still greeter.
Nor are the advantages of our trade with that
port confined to tobacco ; for Bremen receives
nearly as much whale oil as is imported into all
the other ports of the North sea, and its importa
tion of rice, exceeding that of any of those ports,
is about equal to that of Havre. While we en
joy, under existing arrangements, this advantage
ous trade with the north of Germany, it is our
obvious policy to bring that part of Europe still
nearer to us by increased commercial facilities,
such as would be afforded by a direct line of
steamships. Some of our products would find
there a valuable market. The demand for our
cotton is increasing ; and when certain changes
now contemplated are made in the duties of the
German custom union, the trade in that impor
tant staple will become direct, and must be great
ly augmented. It appears from the documents
which accompany the report of the Secretary of
the Treasury, that the value of our exports to
France for the year ending 30th June, 1845, was
sixteen million and hundred and forty three thou
sand nine hundred and ninety-four dollars;
while to the Netherlands, including Belgium,
(for the classification of kingdoms seemed to be
adhered to in the statement,) their value for the
same time was three million six hundred and fen
thousand six hundred and two dollars; and to the
Hanse Towns, four million nine hundred and
forty five thousand and twenty dollars.
Our imports for the same time from France,
amounted to twenty two million sixty nine thou
sand nine hundred and fourteen dollars; from
the Netherlands, stated as above, they amounted
to one million eight hundred and ninety seven
thousand six hundred and twenty three dollars;
and from the Hanse Towns their value was two
million nine hundred and twelve thousand five
hundred and thirty seven dollars. It is but fair
to accompany this statement of our trade with the
Nethclauds with the additional fact, that of our
exports to that country, a considerable proportion
passes into Germany. It is impossible to appre
ciate the advantages of this growing trade with
Germany, or to comprehend the importance ol
cultivating it, without comparing its results with
those which we derive from our trade with other
parts of Europe. In our exchange of commodi
ties with France, amounting to thirty eight mil
lion two hundred and sixty-two thousand eight
hundred and fifty eight dollars, the balance
against U3 is six million eight hundred and sev
enty live thousand nine hunched and icven-y
dollars; while an exchange of commodities with
the Netherlands, amounting to five million five
hundred and eight thousand two hundred and
twenty five dollars, leaves a balance in our favor
of one million seven hundred and twelve thou
sand nine hundred and seventy nine dollars; and
our trade with the Hanse Town, amounting to
seven millions eight hundred and fifty seven
thousand five hundred and fifty seven dollars,
results in a balance for us of two million thirty
two thousand four hundred anti eighty three dol
lars.
The importdhce, then, es encouraging our trade
with G( many, of which Bremen is the principal
port for the commerce of the United States, suffi
ciently appears from facts already stated ; hut we
may add, that of the three hundred and fifty-nine
vessels which cleared during the year 1845, from
the north sea ports, directly for the United
States, two hundred and fourteen were from Bre
men. It is our policy to multiply the means of
intercourqp with a people who have already met
us in a liberal spirit, and whose demands for our
products are steadily increasing.
The Committee go on to state that the proposed
line of steamers would invite a more frequent and
active intercourse North ol Europe gen
erally ; open markets to our cotton ; and
furnish to Northern Europe full and correct in
formation respecting our markets, resources and
institutions. At present, impressions of our coun
try are received from England. The British press,
transmitting intelligence received from curshores
by British steamers, sends out with it comments
upon our affairs which must influence public sen
timent. But through our own line ot steMiiers a
direct and cheaper correspondence with the peo
ple of continental Europe maybe carried on,
while its amount will greatty increase with reduc
ed rates of postage. Thb report concludes with
the following paragraphs -
In looking over the map ofEurope, it will be
semi that Bremen is most favorably Situated as a
point of departure for a steadier bearing intelli
gence from different parts of the world to tke U.
States.
It would, at its departure, receive intelligence
from St. Petersburg, the capital of Russia, brought
to Bremen within sixty eight hours; from Vienna
within thirty six hours ; and from Berlin, within
fourteen hours ; besides the mails from the small
er neighboring kingdoms and states.. Touching
at Cowes, it would take on hoard the I’rencli mail
with dates from Paris, bat 16 hours old, and the
English mail fowarded from London the same day,
and within three hours of its departure for the U.
States. _ .... -
With this accumulated and varied intelligence,
the American steam ship would reach New York
with as little delay as if it had sailed from Liver
pool; the point of departure fertile Cunard line of
steamers—a city of va3t commercial importance,
but remote from the great points of interest in con
tinental Europe, and separated from London by
more than twice the distance whieh divides Cowes
from that emporium.
The committee, in conclusion, recommend that
the subject be referred to the favorable considera
tion of the Committee of Ways and Means, that
the appropriation asked for by the Postmaster
General may be provided for according to law.

Extraordinary Seduction Case. —A very
extraordinary seduction case was tried at Wick
low, Ireland, on the 27th of February. The de
fendant was the Hon. John L. Arabin, ex-Lord
Mayor of Dublin, and the.plaintiff was a woman
whom he had seduced twenty odd years before.
The action was brought to recover damages for
the seduction of this woman’s daughter by the
defendant —that is, of the defendant’s own ille
gitimate daughter. It appeared that Arabin had
three children by the plaintiff, whom he brought
up and educated well, though not in an expensive
way. When the daughter was about 21 years
old, he told her that she was his property and he
could do what lie liked with her, to which propo
sition she seems to have assented without opposi
tion. She became the mother of a child, of
which she swore that Arabin her own father, was
the father.
Mr. Arabin did not deny that the girl was his
daughter by the plaintiff, but he utterly denied
the lilledgcd connexion with the girl, and con
tended that the suit was trumped up by the moth
er in revenge because .he had refused to give her
as much money as she desired. His defence
rested upon alleged descrepancies and contra
dictions in the girl’s testimony, and numerous
threatening letters from the mother to him, in
none of which was any pretence made that he
had seduced the daughterr
The jury gave a verdict against Mr. Arabin,
with 1000 pounds damages. The papers, say
that the verdict excited general surprise, aiid that
Mr. Arabin would move for anew trial.
Trinity Church. —lt turns out, after all
tliat this great New York Corporation, instead
of being worth fifteen or twenty millions of dol
lars is “worse than nothing.” In a recent report
to the New York Legislature, it states—
“ The whole number of their lots of ground is
801—of which the Astor lease is of 356, having
25 years to run—producing $269 per annum.—
The Lispenard lease is of 81, having 16 years to
run—producing $177,50 per annum; leaving
those let separately, 400 of different sizes, but
generally 25 by 75, and 25 by 100.
“The whole aggregate annual income, being
from ground and pew rents, interest and inter
ments, during the last three years, is $52,358. —
The average annual expenditures, annual in
their nature, during the same time, has been
$60,345.
“The Corporation owe $409,820.”
This is au exposition which will puzzle some
people. To think of a church, erecting a place
of worship at cost of about half a million; own
ing nearly 1000 of the best spots of ground in
the city of New York, paying its officiating
clergy 10 or $12,000 a year, all out of a clear
income of $15,000 is most extraordinary. In
half a dozen years, at tills rate, a special act of
bankruptcy will have to be passed for the benefit,
of Trinity Church, owning property worth mil
lions, but producing almost nothing !

was to us ever present,) that the records of this
Lodge should bear enduring testimony of the
high place lie held in the estimation of the fra
ternity.
Therefore, Resolved, That we most deeply de
plore the affecting event which has thus deprived
the fraternity of one of its best and most efficient
members, his intimate friends of a truthful and
loyal heart, and society ofits brightest ornament
—an upright man.
Resolved, That our most sincere and heart
felt condolence is offered to the relatives of the
deceased, in this, to them, as to us, most afflicting
bereavement.
Resolved, That we who survive him may be
taught to anticipate and prepare for our approach
ing end, to learn the truth of the adage, “in the
midst oflifo we are in death,” and bear in mind
the inspired sentence which teaches that “dust
we are, and unto dust we shall return” —while
at the same time we be constantly reminded of
that immortal part within.us-which “'shall survive
the grave, and never, never die.”
Resolved, That as an outward symbol of our
inward and heartfelt grief, we wear crape on the
arm for the space of thirty days.
Resolved, That these resolutions be entered
on the minutes of this Lodge, and that a copy of
the same be sent to eaph of the Columbus papers,
with a request that they he published.
A trite extract from the minutes.

CONSUMPTION.
Boston, Sept. 10, 1845.
TO THE SICK AND AFFLICTED.
Dear Sir:—l take pleasure in communicating
through you, to all whom it may concern, and the
public generally , the astonishing effect your truly
wonderful medicine has had upon me. I have
enjoyed perfect health for four or five years.—
Physicians told me my liver was diseased, and
that I might some day die with consumption.—
Last September, 1845,1 took a slightcold, which
produced if hacking cough ; this continued until
February, 1545, when I added another cold ; my
cough increased, I soon lost my appetite, and my
strength failed. For six weeks 1 could not lie
upon one side ; I sweat very much of nights, rais
ed considerable blood during the winter, and
could not speak a loud word for two weeks.—
With ail these bad symptoms, I had very severe
pain in my side and between* my shoulders ; gen
eral debilify followed. I was confined to my
room about eight weeks. I had buried a sister
and brother,Joth died with Consumption. I ex
pected to die myself: my friends also despaired
of my life. At this time an uncle, who had been
benefitted himself, advised me to take
DR. tVISTAWS BALSAM OF WILD CHEERY.
I accordingly procured a bottle, took it, and felt
some better ; obtained another, and’ . a third ;
then I ceased to bleed, and my cough was much
better; but my disease was so deeply rooted, I
was obliged to continue taking the Balsam until
I had taken seven bottles. I* can honestly and
truly say, I believe Dr. Wistar’s Balsam’ of Wild
Cherry saved my life.
MRS. MARY B. GOULD.
We are personally acquainted with Mrs. Gould,
assisted in taking.Garc of her during her sickness,

The operations ofthe past week in cotton have
been on quite an extensive scale, at gradually in
creasing rates, particularly for the better descrip
tions which are more difficult to buy, being com
paratively scarce—for the descriptions 71 a7|,
have been paid readily, and one or two small par
cels have been sold at 7f —Middling fair cotton
bring 71 —but grades below are not so much in
demand and arc stationing in price, being worth
6 a 61.
The planters are offering freely but the demand
is adequate to the supply.
The stock is diminishing rapidly on the Ware
houses by shipments and scarcely any thing is
coming in.

Charleston, April 8.
Cotton. —The Upland market during Saturday
and Monday reriiaifted in the same inactive state,
and holders as firm, as we reported both at the
close ofthe previous week. The sales on Mon
day amounted to 500 bales, on Tusday 350 bales.
Yesterday a demand by two foreign shipping
houses, resulted in the sale of 1450 bales, at the
same full rates which we quoted in our last week
ly review:
Mobile, Tuesday Evening, April 10.
Cotton. —The transactions to-day amount to a
bout 1500 bales, with a change in prices, though
some holders manifest rather more disposition to
realize on the lower grades of cotton.
New-ObleanS, April 8.
Cotton. —-We reported the cotton marked in our
review of last Saturday morning as having been
in a dull and unsettled state during.the three days
previous, buyer! being unwilling to operate free
ly unless at a further reduction in prices, and
holders, on the other hand, not at all disposed to
give way, although the stock in market, on ac
count ofthe absence of demand was accumulat
ing. The market during Saturday, continued to
exhibit the same want of activity before noticed,
the sales having been confined to about 2,500
bales, but prices, however, remaimed without
any perceptible change. On Monday the market
again maintained a very quiet apppearance, tho’
the demand was of a rather more general and ac
tive character than on Saturday, and the sales at
the close of business amounted t 0.3800 bales,
prices still continuing about the same as before.
Yesterday-there was quite an active demand,'and
considerably mare animation in the market than
for a dumber of days past, fully 9000 bales having
chariged hinds. Jiia to prices, it may be said that
some"little irregularity prevailed/though our pre
vious quotations were, on the whole, tolerably
well sustained, and we have acccordingly con
tinued tliehrf without.change , . Some parcels have
been taken by English operators since our last,
but the business, however, continues to be chief
ly confined, to shippers to the Northern cities,
and to the North and South of Europe and France.
The stock of cotton in first hands is tolerably fair,
though it has not been.increased .during the last
three days,’the sales having about equalled the
receipts. It has rained every day for four days
past, occasionally pouring down in torrents, and
business has, on this account bceii very much
impeded, sellers being unable to make deliveries.
The sales of the three days amount to 15,300
bales.
