Richmond, Jute' 14. The marshal of this district yesterday re vived from tile President full pardons for Samuel G. Poole and Francis Oglesby, two of the Irresistible’s crew, who had been sen tenced to sutler death on the 1 llth inst. They were immediately set at liberty. The, others Ti4 in number) are indefinitely reprieved. Mr. Fenwick, the gentleman who carried the petition in behalf of these men, from this Oily to the President, returned last evening. PRESENCE OF MIND. A short time since a gentleman of respect ability residing in tbc vicinity of Baltimore, being absent from bis dwelling, H’t his daughter in charge of the house until his re turn-—towards morning, n rapping was heard at the door, when the daughter, presuming it to be her father, rose from bed and unlock ed the door to admit him, when she discov ered a stranger. She immediately called loudly her fathers name, when the villain (supposing him to bn at home) decamped with all possible speed. On the Monday night following, a second attempt was made to obtain admission, and which was effected, by three men, with the aid of false keys.— The daughter, after an ineffectual attempt to wake a brother, seised his gun and discharg ed it atitho head of one of them, who wore a mask. At that instant two of them moved nil', and .after a few seconds, the masked gen tleman also got off, leaving his inask behind, perforated with numerous small shot. Balt. Fed. Rep. 15th inst. Salisbury, Md. June 8, 1820. Stratagem,—On Friday night last, in the vicinity of the town of Salisbury, Md. the noted kidnapper Dean Marvell, of Delaware, with an associate by the name of Curtis Steene, were decoyed and apprehended by the Protecting Society of Salisbury and have since been safely committed to the jail of Somerset county. They were taken in the very act r.f de livering to the purchaser a free negro man, whom in securing they had inhu manly beaten. They acknowledge the negro to lie free and say that his name is Peter Chance, of Wilmington, Del. [Balt. Fed. 1 ag.j From the Goshen I’alriot of June 12. Another Alurdcr.—About ten days go, a girl, by the name of Fliza Green, twelve.or thirteen years of age, who had been taken from the poor house in New- Yovk, and was living in the family of a Mr. Lcdyard, in Newburgh, was missing from her place, of residence. One day last week the body of a female, about the same age, was discovered on the shore of the North River, near New- Windsor, and a Coroner’s Jury pronoun ced that she had been wilfully murdered by some person or persons unknown The body was decently buried—it was afterwards taken up and identified to be the body of the girl above described.— Some circumstances occurred about the time she was missing, which caused sus picion to fix upon Mr. Ledyard, ns the perpetrator of the horrid deed. He was accordingly taken up and examined on Thursday and Friday last, before three Justices, in Newburgh, anil was subse quently admitted to bail, by our first* Judge in the sum of $ 1000. It has been stated that the girl’s father lives in King ston, Ulster County. was soon called lur. We arc happy to hnd that such an one has been presented to the public, with corrections and many useful additions. It is now offered to the craft, and w ill, we are certain, com mand their increased approbation. It is our intention, as soon as we can find room, to bestow on it a few remarks, and present a general outline of the whole. In tlie mean time, we would recommend to those of our brethren, who are. desi rous of obtaining the best information concerning the great truths and inesti mable principles of their order, the pe< rnsal oi the following extracts from the \V estern Review.” The editor of this' periodical work, commands a distinguish ed rank, as a mason and a scholar.— We perfectly coincide with him in his commendations of the author and liis book. ‘ Mr. ( Iross is well known in the ma sonic world. lie has been an able, ar dent, and indefatigable labourer in the cause of the craft. His amenity and mo desty of deportment, the purity of his principles, and correctness of his life ; in line, his truly masonic character, have insured him the esteem and respect of his brethren, wherever they have had an opportunity of cultivating liis acquaint ance. His well-known uncommon ac quirements in mystic lore, united to the affection entertained for him as an indi vidual, must secure for his vVork an ex tensive patrongc. And, we confess, we hope it will be patronized. Its merit consists in the selection of the best and most universally approved system of il lustrations, and the classification of ma sonic emblems, in such a manner as to as sist the lecturer, and to promote unifor mity in working. This latter part of the plan is in a great measure new, and con stitutes ail important improvement, li will be of no use, however, to any hut “ brothers of the mystic tie.” For them only was it intended, and by them only will il be favorably regarded. “Mr. Cross lias devoted himself al most exclusively, for some time past, to the interests of free masonry, fie has travelled from one end of the continent to the other, lecturing in every part ol his course, comparing the modest ol work which lie has observed in different lodges, and endeavouring, as f.ir as pos sible, to bring about a perfect and un varying uniformity. To aid in the ac complishment of this lending obje.ct, is the design of the work before us. W c wish it therefore extensive circulation among the craft, that its utility in this respect may he fairly tested. Whetlici Mr. Cross he right iy not in all the mi nute particulars, a general acquaintance with his work will lend at least lo awaken inquiry, nnd, where differences have ex isted, to asceilain which mode is the most i correct.” in the world for a respite. At length liis Infernal Majesty offered to give him a few years time for the sum of five hun dred dollars^ which the farmer immedi ately presented in hanlAiotcs, hut the devil told him ” he durslnottouch any paper money—liis fingers would burn it.” The farmer then promised and swore that be would have the notes ex changed for specie the next day, and if his majesty would please to call on him the ensuing night lie should have it.— pon this assurance the nevil departed, md the next day the farmer came to this place, where ho procured the specie for liis notes, nnd returned home, happy in the thoughts of getting eosily rid oi' liis unwelcome visitor. In the course of the evening a Yankee pedlar stopped it Ids house te asked for lodgings, which wore refused, and on the Yankee's in sisting to stay, ns lie could go no-further that uight, Hnd the farmer told him that lie had better not as the devil was to be there shortly, and would in all probabili ty take him along. The Yankee, nltlio' a little surprised at the oddity of the man, replied that lie was willing to risk it.— He unharnessed liis nag, swallowed liis supper, and after providing himself with a good club, took his station in n private corner. The firmer stood his table be- bro the fire, at one end of which lie took liis seat, and at the other end para- led his dollars, apparently wishing Ion- ,-ord as much as possible, tin* sooty lin gers and sulphurous scent of Mr. Bel/.o- bub. Accordingly at a late hour the loop (lew open, in stalked his Majesty, accoutred as before, spitting lire and vo miting smoke in his passage to the table which contained the farmer’s ransom.— The Devil who hates formality, imme diately commenced gathering up the pie ces, when our Yankee, stepping up be hind him. levelled a blow at liis head with the club which did no further inju ry than knocking off one of the horns of .Mr. Devil, who seemed disposed to make hi« escape, but fortunately a second hit with the club knocked him down, when, with the assistance of the farmer, who hy this time had not so much dread of liis Satanic Majesty, he was tied te con veyed to the prison of this place.” Horrid Transaction.—The Western Reserve Chronicle ; (printed at bar ren, Trumbull county, Ohio,) of the 1st inst. gives a distressing account of the death of Philemon, William and Cy rus, three only children of Mr. Zaplina, and Mrs. Lois Stone, of Kinsman, in that county, who were drowned by the hand of their mother! The circumstances are peculiar, and were communicated for publication by a Clergyman. Mr. and Mrs. Stone possessed amiable disposi tions, sustained unblemished characters, and had lived together in tbc utmost har mony. During a late revival of religi on, Mrs. S. was awakened, and supposed she had experienced a change of heart. Soon after, however, she settled down in a state of gloom and melancholy, and declared that she had committed the un pardonable sin. Under this impression, and believing, that, if taken off at their present tender age. the children would be happy ; and believing, also, that, hav ing committed the unpardonable sin, no injury would follow to herself, while her husband was gone to meeting, on Sun day, the 14th of May, she drowned the little innocents, in a spring about 3 feet deep. Verdict of the Coroner’s Inquest, was, drowned by the mother, in a fit of insanity. credulity, than one that another metal can create gold. Bank paper, not being capital, or able to create capital, it is to lie further examined, whether il encourages and creates labor nnd industry, as it also pri tends. If it did, thu new created industry, would retain the spe cie hank paper it expels. This inquiry lies m a comparison, betweena legal institution for acquiring wealth to an enormous extent, without talents or industry ; and leaving its acquisition to the regulation of talents nnd industry. Wealth, in both cases, is suppos ed to he the spur to exertion. By a labori ous cultivation of my talents mill persever ing industry, 1 acquire a moderate degree of wealth, while another, by but king, acquires infinitely more, without labor or talents.— Why should I subject myself to the fatigue of becoming learned nnd useful, to become the scoff of a rich, idle and volupturns order? Their abundance, will, by comparison, dimi nish my competence to almost nothing ; and of course it will be diminished in my own eyes. Under this view of things, will I la bor ? No, I will go to the lottery where there is no blanks ; where every ticket draws an annual prize ; and where, as a stock-jobber, I may be as rich, as idle, as ignorant and as useless as a bishop, nobleman, or king. WImt will the world say of ourexperiment, if stock-jobber, an epithet, universally consi dered as far more humiliating than those of bishop, nobleman, or king should become the title of a separate and superior order or in terest in the United States. HcreditnVy and hierarchical orders encou rage industry in the same way as stock or ders do, hy taxing it to maintain themselves in idleness and affluence. The lash is appli ed to slaves, and indirect taxation to free men, lo encourage industry. Kings, Lords, Bishops ami Bankers praise the effect of both causes, to gain wealth and leisure for thumsclves. X? r. i ihv RECORDER. MILLEUGEVILLE, Ti usuav, Jum 4.

Few persons, ol what ever condition and pursuits, can read it without advantage. There are few who do not labour under phyical ills which its precepts will not contribute to allevi ate, or who are not liable to excesses which its reasonings may not intercept by demonstrating the larking mischief To all whose digestive organs are de ranged, or whose habits tend to produce this heavy evil, it must prove a most sal utary monition, likely to be the more efficacious, because brief, and conveyed in popular language.

The common mid solitary refuge of onr twin nanie-sakes,(deht, si ..ck and hank stuck) js simply that of all orders enriched by law and oppression. “It ist|ieiroppulence,”siiy, they, which gives employment to labor and excites industry—thus have all such or ders concealed the wealth they extract and the poverty they inflict. As a justification of banking, this old mode of concealment requires attention. Hoes banking increase cnpilal ? It docs, if ri al capital is increased, by increasing pa per currency ; Init if paper currency can tit most he considered as capital, when balan ced hy property and laimr, an additional quantity can no more increase capital, than blowing up poor mutton can increase meat. A redundancy of specie would not form a stationary capital. As birds of passage tra vel in search of food, specie travels in search of the real capital it represents, and as the birds will not remain in a field or forest where there is nothing to eat, specie will al ways desert the marke: where nothing can he bought. If specie could create capital, il would li il stationary employment every where. From these liiets v e iufiT that coin is not capital, but the representative of capi tal ; and that it is inverting the true and ge nuine relation between capital and money, to suppose that money produces national capital, instead of national capital producing money.

The Devil Caught—“ Some time since his majesty king Lucifer was caught and safely delivered over to the custody ol the jailor ol this county, where he is at present in confinement, well secured and ironed, to wait the decision ot tne law. - The circumstance* arc as lar as they have conic to my knowledge, as follows : “ A farmer in a neighbouring township, after liis family had retired to rest, was sitting by the’ lire ruminating over the events of the day and the prospects of to morrow when suddenly the door of his apartment was thrown open and in stain ed a gigantic figure with a large pair ol horns, very fiery' eyes and terrible as pect, and a long brindled tail, which swung about tlie brimstone tyrant in ali the majesty of ugliness. The terrified farmer stood aghast, whilst in a hoarse and hollow voice, he learned to his Utter fear and astonishment, that the august personage before hitn was the Devil, who had come to take possession of his body and soul. Tlie luckless farmer plead off. The Devil was inexorable— The terrified man fell upon liis knees and bcgsjci a d;'y, J>C9fl»isi»S every tiling five million (nut) annually, though it had no money, it would soon have an hundred mil lion of capital, which would attract money. The introdit' lion of hank paper is imilorpily the epoch from which we are lodato the di minution of spent;. If specie, therefore is capital, bank paper, (the representative of specie) diminishes capital, if specie is not ca pital, neither can i s representative he capi tal. It is by real capital, that specie is equa lized among commercial nations. As a re presentative, it is subordinate und responsi ble to its principal. Bank paper cannot pos- ss an intrinsic value, if the value ufspecit representative—it cannot increase capital: and a surplus, beyond a necessary curmi cy, far from falling w ithin any idea of the term capital, can only exist by feeding on capital the. principal oi* currency. If hank paper wus new capital, :so lar from expiri ng the representative oil the old, it would re ptile more representation and attract spe cie ; or if like specie, it was the responsible representative/)(capitalor property, il would be subordinate to us principal. Oil the con trary, it is made by law ,tn irresponsible re presentative of capital nr property; am) n currency converted front the servant into tin master of property, necessarily becomes a tyrant to secure itspovvor. The advocates of banking admit this do, trine, by contending that it is beneficial to nation to expel specie hy paper ; as it causes an exchange of the representative of capita' for the thing itself, and when we see gold and silver fly from a countiy, because it is unable to create capital, and because capital can only retain a competent representation interest ot my Constituents hy abandoning my seal in the nouse lor a tune, or to submit to n pecuniary sacrifice Which I am not weligible lo sustain.
