On Saturday last, the C5th inst. came on to be tried in the district court for the city and county of Philadelphia, the case eftticks n*. Allen. This was an action of slander, brought by lvobert Hicks, a black man, _ gainst Richard Alien, bishop of the African .Methodist Episcopal Church, for w ords al leged to have been spoken by Allen from the pulpits of Bethel and Union 'Churches, to wit :—Charging Hicks and others, with Be traying and kidnapping people of their color, it had been tried before, iu May last, and a verdict for 8200. The. cour’ granted a new trial: and it now came on, before .the Honorable Judges M*- Kean and Simmons, „n.l a very intelligent jury ; the plaintiff produced eight witnesses, all people of color, who swore to the words. Tlic defendant produced twenty three res pectable prwpk of color who testified that they were present at the churches mid at the times stated ; and that the words “ kidnap- ptr," kidnapped," or ” kidnapping™ were not used by Mr. Allen ; and some other wit nesses, as to Hicks having tampered with some of his witnesse The counsel employed, agreed not to •peak to the ease, but leave it to llie jury tin der the direction of the court. ’The lury -retired, and in ten minutes re turned arid gave a verdict for the. defendant. The conniel were Joseph tLIngursoll and TVm. tWany, for plaintiff. Browne, and Swift, Rayse, Newcomb and fc, A. Browne, for defendant EXTRACT From Brackcnridge's Fit ts's of Louisiana. It was Ihc twentieth of May. The weather in this latitude, exceedingly warm. As llie day decline*, however, the air grows cool and ftesh. At night the coolness is even such ns to render a fire indispensable. On leaving the town, 1 passed for n mile or tw o through a w ood of astonishingly luxuriant grow th, and o- vera plain of a loose rich soil, and where there is nothing to vary the scene but the variety of the vegetation. Just as the sun was sinking below the horizon,! entered one of those beautiful glades, or natural meadows, which are so often seen in this part of the world, and never without producing an agreeable feeling, The storm of t!i« passions had already subsided in uiy breast, the objects which had successively caught tny attention in jogging along, had calmed my mind, and glad fancy plumed her wing for a llight to scenes of ideal enjoyments and plea sures. In this state of mind, 1 suddenly emerged from the dark forest ; the prai rie, spread out before me all its enchant ing beauties, and fearful of passing too rapidly, 1 reigned in my horse. 1 gazed with delight on the smooth soft grass, on the numerous flowers, on the scattered shrubberies ofsumwc, with their scarlet berries, which preserve their hues until renewed by summer, nnd on the close embowering woods, by which this gar den of the Dryads and Hamadryads, was enclosed as by a wail. How serene the heavenly vault above my head ! How rich and varied underneath my feet, the hues and texture of the carpet woven by the fantastic hand of nature ! Cold is the heart that does not harmonize with our universal mother, when her features wear an expression like this. ft was night when I reached the fur ther end of the glade, and then entered a deep forest, where the massy foliage almost shut out the twinkling light of the stars. There was no danger of stray ing from the road, for the woods arc so close as to form a complete hedge. Af ter travelling ns 1 conjectured, about four miles, 1 heard the barking of dogs who had discovered my approach ; the sound was not disagreeable, as I expect ed here to find my companions, and to repose for the night. As l drew near the settler's cabin, 1 discovered a groupe of persons seated by a large fire which was burning under an enormous tree.— Here he comes,” se veral voices cried out at once, for it seems they had been expecting me; and the settler coining forward, requested me to alight, with an appearance of good will which made me feel that it was sincere. The dogs who were at first very noisy, now whined a kind of w elcome as if they would se cond the hospitality of their master.— I gladly accepted the invitation, having been :■ good deal chilled by the cold night dews. 1 found my companions seated in the midst of the family, and as much at home tvs if they formed a partofit. The family consisted ofthc mo ther and fourteen children ; the eldest apparently about eighteen years of age, a blooming girl; the youngest an infaul. They were all glowing with health. 1 made up an acquaintance in a few mo ments with half a doeen young rogues, and passed the time agreeably. The in nocence, the cheerfulness and content, which prevailed in this charming family, almost seemed 4o be without alloy. The scene will never fade-from my recollec tion. They were neatly dressed in new Cotton cloth, and bad nothing of that wretchedness or poverty, or stupid igno rance, which is hut too common in the unfortunate peasantry of most countries. Looking around, 1 found inyself in the, midst of the woods ; a few trees were felled round the house, which was built of unhewn logs, the interstices not clo sed up. The good man having secured my horse in a kind of shed, and given him a bundle of reeds which he had cut, re turned to the fire and resumed his seat. 1 conversed with him on various subjects, and was much suprised at the good sense as well as various information which he possessed. He gave me a brief account of his reasons for settling here. He was a native of Connecticut, had sold a small property, which he owned in the vicinity of Hartford, and had removed to Ohio, with the intention of purchasing a tract -of land on which to support his increas ing family. But on his arrival, he had found the price beyond his means, after the expenses he was obliged to incur in transporting his family, lie had tkcre- fore come to the resolution of proceed ing to the extreme frontier, and a few months before had reached New Madrid. Here he had followed the example of others, and selected a spot on the public lands, in the hope of being able to make as much by the cultivation of the soil, as would pay for it by the time the office for the sale «f the public domain, should be opened. If he should not prove suc cessful, the improvements cn the land, would render it more valuable to some one else, and in the mean while, he would be aide *o support lri3 family.— Supper being now announced, we all en- teied the cabin, where the tabic was spread, &i rough benches placed around it. A tin cup filled with rich milk, was placed before each of us, and cakes of Indian meal, were smoking on the board The good man said grace in a reverend manner, and we did ample justice to the simple uid wholesome fare provided for us. Surrounded by health, innocence, and benevolence, who could complain ? If Satan himself had come hereto plan mischief against these amiable people, and were thus kiudly treated, he would have relented. After supper, we returned to the fire underneath the spreading tree, & whiled away the time in sprightly and mirthful conversation ; the Yankee girls were rery talkative, the whole family appear ed to he delighted with our company in this lonely plaoe, where they so seldom saw any strangers but their neighbors, the hears and wolves. The hour for retiring at length arrived. Our host a- rose, A addressing himself to us, “gen tlemen,” said he, “ it is the practice of our family to give a half an hour to re ligious devotion every evening ; should you think proper to join us, we will be glad, if not, keep your seats, and excuse us for the present.”—Who could hnvc declined such an invitation ? A Turk would not have harmed them ; an Indi an ; no, the bloody savage would not have chosen this sacred moment, to have rushed upon them with the murderous knife. We again entered the house, where they sung one of Watts’ pious hymns, after which, our host poured out a prayer that seemed to flow from the very bottom of his heart. The evening service was concluded by nnothrr hymn, after which, it being lime to retire to rest, we were shewn up to the loft, to which we ascended by a ladder. A few blankets and bear skins, had been pro vided for us ; wc resigned ourselves to sleep in the consciousness that even such wretches as we, could not fail of experi encing the cave of the protecting angel, «et over to guard this charming family from the approach of guile. How different the piety of these peo ple -from the intolerance of fanaticism that deadly enemy of religion ? Is there a man so depraved and w icked, as not to feel inward involuntary reverence, on approaching the shrine where with de cent humility, the sinner offers, on the- altar of God, the sacrifice of a contrite and grateful heart! Put the scorn and derision which the fanatic provokes, gives a wound to religion herself whose cause' lie thinks to promote. 1 trust, that 1 shall always entertain a just sentiment' of whatever tends lo lessen the salutary influence of religion: for it is vn f, soil. of society. No nation has cvcrexistcd without finding it indispensible. To thousands it is ihc subtle monitor which guides and governs in gentle whispers, where the voice rif human law is silent. To millions it is flic fountain of bliss, of fortitude, of consolation, of hope, of hap piness unspeakable. What shall I say of tiic mad and impious man who thinks to destroy it? lie is worse than the traitor, for he wars not against a town of government hut stabs at the existence of society itself ; he is worse than the rob ber or murderer, for he steals what riches cannot buy, and destroys an eter nal life. Letter of J\f. .Y. II. Hull, to his Father. We publish the following letter, which was delivered to us by the unhappy man himscif for publication, with feelings of no ordinary sensibility. This paper will speak for itself ; it needs no comment of our own ; it may he said to speak from the grave, w hich already opens for its victim; and from llie evidence that we personally became acquainted with from Ihc lips of this unfortunate and guil ty man, wc have no doubt of his sinceri ty. Could wc add any tiling to the sen timents advanced by the writer, most cordially xnd deeply would we rejoin in his supplication, that our rising youth would learn from this awful example, to reverence the admonitions of their pi ous parents. Would lo God that it would lead us all to l ulled, that even murder is nearly allied to the indulgence of any known vice. That the same be neficent Redeemer, through whose me rits, not only this unhappy man but every son and daughter of Adam, must expect divine forgiveness, may have mercy on him, is our fervent supplication at the Throne of Divine (.trace.—Belt. ‘Jitron. DearFatiif.w—1 am daffy and impa tiently expecting a letter from you, and hope you have by this time received my last. On Wednesday 1 received my aw ful se-ntence, but dear father, I acknow ledged to the court then, as I did before to you, the strict justice cf it. Yes, 1 know that my hands are polluted with blood, and my conscience—oh it is bur dened with the crime into which 1 have been drawn. Little did l expect when I left our happy home and an affection ate father, that before 1 could sec you again, 1 should have incurred such guilt, and be a tenant of this doleful cell.— Would to God 1 had rejected tly; first proposal, which was that we should go on to get a sum of money, which Hutton assured me he knew we could get, with ease and certainty. The plan was not fully explained to me until we got to Wilmington—of the murder 1 knew noth ing until wc were returning from the place the first night, and when my terror prevented the cxeo'.lion of the plan.— Tliori Hutton told me, that although he had not mentioned it to me, lie meant to have put the man out of the way, lest Ins evidence should lead to our convic tion. Oh ! if God had taken my life (he next day and never allowed me to go out a second time. Rut then I should have died as 1 lived—thoughtless, rash and unprincipled ; and now, though 1 have brought disgrace and anguish upon you, yet my guilty soul may he saved because Jesus Christ died for sinners, and he has given me time and hope to repent. When the poor man begged for his life I told him we would, and I meant it.— Indeed 1 pleaded for him, but Hutton in stated we would he known, and told me it was no time for pleading, and at last told me either to shoot him or the driver, and then—oh my God forgive me.— Dear Father, I do not write you this to excuse my guilt—no, this is too, too had ! 1 have not denied it before God or man, but it is to show you, that dreadful ly as l had abused your cure, your tears and prayers were not altogether thrown away—I was not yuitc abandoned. Ob my God preserve my brother from bad company, nnd enable me to soothe a heart which my wickedness has «o much tortured. The poor woman loo—from her 1 have assisted to tear ntvay her hus band, and made her children orphans— If 1 could ordy work for them ! but God will take care of them. Dear Father, this is a time of shame and sorrow with me, but may God so help me to repent and he converted, that nil my sins may he forgiven me, nnd blotted out from his holy hooks. 1 read the bible the great est part of the time ; 1 have several o- ther hooks and tracts, but the bible is now worth to me all that you used to say it was worth, I learn there that God i< gracious, long-suffering and merciful, & forgiving fin to the penitent, and takes delight in a broken spirit; for lie says in the Scripture, “a broken and a con trite heart he will not despise he isa- ble to forgive the worst of sinners, nnd we rend, ,l though your sins he as scar let, they shall be as white ns snow ; tho’ they be as crimson, he can make them white as wool:” how often my dear fa ther have you told me these things, and yet verse than a child, or brute, 1 have resisted nnd not profited by your advice, and preferred the guilty advice of bad friends. 1 know that I am inexcusable by my earthly father ; and can my God, iny heavenly lather, ever forgive me ? Oh, if it was not for Jesus Christ, where, where should 1 go ? Rut I hope that lie will support me under the dreadful pu nishment which 1 have shortly to suffer; how my soul sinks under it ; but if he will only give me hope in my death, and the least, the lowest part in his kingdom, 1 die contented. One thing move—What will you think of ine who n*i so undeserving a wretch, asking any favor of you ? Rut, my dear father, Mrs. I leap;:, the woman whose husband we murdered, is poor and de pendent, and her children—it was your -on that helped to make them orphans! Will you not then, notwithstanding your large family, do something for them ?— Give them a salary, or any thing that you see best, or can nfford, and they, &. God, and your son, will bless you. This would sweeten iny death to know that it was done at my request. Remember me, un fortunate as 1 am, to mv mother. Thank Godthnt my own mother is spared your sufferings. Remember me also to bro ther and sisters ; and may my awful si tuation be a warning to them and all my acquaintances. God comfort you in this your time of affliction. I have seen a letter from a gentleman in Utica, which stated that you would probably be on to visit me after rnv trial. I long, yet dread to see yon ; it will be a grievous meeting. My eyes are so tilled with tears, that 1 cannot write any more. But you know my feelings better than I can* describe them. Do write me soon. This from your guilty, afflicted, undutiful and im prisoned son. MORRIS N. B. HULL, Baltimore (Prison) April ii3d, 1 UiO. Duel. Amos O’. Hull. Sheriff's Sale.
