iclves. This, says the Gazette, is al
ways the case with English sailor^
who are wrecked on this coast; they
take it for grunted that there are no
inhabitants but Indians, ready to mur
der them without mercy, while in
truth there are few or no Indians ci-
their on the Labrador coast or on th.it
of Newfoundland, and these, far from
being cruel, are the mos« inoffensive

| Trial of Mrs. Royal.—The trial of
■ Mrs. Royuil, as a common scold, at
Washington city, has resulted in her
Conviction. Ten witnesses were
sworn oil behalf of the piosecution,
; and eight in favor of the prisoner.
The National Intelligencer says,—
“ fhe examination and cross exam
ination of these numerous witnesses
decupled nearly five hours. Being at
length finished, Mrs. Royall rose and
tnade short but a pathetic adress to the
Jury, urging them to defend her a-
gainst oppression; to prove' them
selves the protectors of personal righ ts
and liberty: warning them against
■Sanctioning a system of clerical dom
ination arid persecution, which, if not
checked by the freedom of speech
and of the press, and these defended
by independent juries, would produce
a state of tilings which would endan
ger the Judge on the bench, and even
the President himself; declaring that
this system and this prosecution were
part of a general scheme, of which
the attempt to stop the mails on the
Sabbath was another feature, &e. &e.
“The counsel on both sides sub
mitted the case without argument, &
the jury having retired a few minutes,
returned with a verdict of ‘guilty as
indicted.”
“The defendant then gave security
in $10J to appear to answer the judg
ment; and the court adjourned at 5 o’
clock.
“The bench ungnllantly ordered
her to be lucked up until she found
bail for her appearance to receive
judgement, which was arrested by
her counsel; ‘This is pretty country
to live in,” said the indignant perse
cuted, as she heard the mandate for
the incarceration.
“It is said she intends to move in
arrest of judgment—that the verdict
is contrary to the evidence, as it clear
ly proved that she is an uncommon
scold.”

'Atrocious Murder.—On
night the 29th ult. whilst
Bowycrs, df Hanover County, Va.
was sitting at supper with his wife,
his father and brother, he was shot
by one of his negroes, who, it seems,
had secreted himself in the garden
opposite the door, at the distance of
about 35 feet, for that purpose. At
the fire of the gun, he fell from his
’chair without speaking, and remained
stupid and insensible . for nearly 12
hours before he expired. S x ne
groes have been examined and sent on
to jail; two or three of the principal
actors in this horrid plot, having, af

Tight Lacing.—The Vermont
Journal of the 4th of July, contains a
communication from Dr. Palmer,
which gives tho distressing particu
lars attending the death of Mrs. S. of
that town, aged 18, which was pro
duced by tight hieing, causing an ab
scess to form near the pit of the stom
ach, which burst internally. Dr. P.
obtained permission to open tho body.
In the chest, the left lung was shriv
elled to the thickness of one’s linger,
and its spongy structure destroyed so
as to he wholly unfitted for bearing a
part in the process of respiration.—
There was extensive adhesions of the
stomach and liver to the siivrounding
parts. Thus was a life fortified, mid
as it were, insured hy one of the most
vigorous constitutions, thrown away
in obedience to the dictates of fashion.
The cases of lingering disease, of
slowly protracted, yet certain death
from this cause, are almost of daily
occurence.
A physician at Balston Spa lias
transmitted to Dr. S. L. Mitchell, an
account of a young woman who in the
summer was stung ns she said, by a
large green grasshopper. In the win
ter a tumor appeared at the place and
afterwards on the side of the neck.
Her physician treated for scrofula
with apparent success, for it again
disappeared, until July, when it was
felt once more at the shoulder—the
tumor-abo’it the size of a lien s egg,
and with evident fluctuation, when it
was opened with a small discharge of
unhealthy pus, and along with it a
living grasshopper, two inches in
length, and breadth proportionate.

Despatch.—Nothing can exceed the
speed with which the Rhode Island
Legislature despatches iis multifari
ous labors.
‘•The Legislature of Rho.l > Island,
adjourned on Satuiday last, after a
session ot four working days,six hours
each. Duriug that time they have
passed about 60 acts of a public and
private nature, tried several private
petitions, investigated the concerns of
a Bank, elected nearly 200 civil and
military officers; refused to reform
the Militia and the laws of suffrage,
and left undone quite as much busi
ness as they have done. Wo should
like to see any Legislature in the
country put against this for speed, to
say nothing of bottom.”
Great Age.—In noticing a celebra
tion of the Jill of July, near Raleigh,
N. C. the Register States that “Sir.
Arthur Wall, now in his 109th year,
was particularly invited; he excused
himsolt on account of being busy icith
his crop,’ but said he would send one
ol his hoys, a lad of eighty tivo, with
his toast. No toasts, however, were
drunk, for there were no intoxicating
liquors on the ground. Long before
the shades of the evening, the grati
fied company, after a day of sober and
rational enjoyment, departed for their
homes, with improved rational and
neighborhood feelings.” f

o’clock they formed a great mob near

Murder.—A melancholy and dis
tressing murder was perpetrated in
Ashticld, Mass, oil Tuesday 7tli inst.
by a man named Allred Elmer. H#
fancied himself commissioned from
Heaven to kill three persons, and de
rived his warrant, as he says, from
the I tth chapter of Revelation. 11 is
victims were a child about two years
old, and an only soil of Timothy Cat-
lin, who was killed on * he spot, and
an old gentleman, grandfather of the
culprit, who was so severely wounded
that there is no hope of his surviving.
The child lie killed because it was
innocent. The prisoner u'as undoubt

the next term of the Supreme Court
to be held in September next.
Cock Roaches.—The Providence
Patriot has discovered a method of
destroying that troublesome intruder,
at once simple and effective. It is as
follows:
Procure from the apothecary or
herb woman a moderate quantity df
odoriferous vegitcble called
(hat
Poke Root: boil it in water until the
juices are extracted, arid mingle the
liquor with good West India inolases,
or if the spirit of patriotism be ex*
trnvagant, with molascs from New
Orleans;—spread the liquid in large
platters or Soup plates, in the kitchen,
pantry, closet or wash-house, or what
ever apartment may have been the
subject of invasion, and (lie enemy
will be found slain in heaps, lying by
hundreds and fifties, before the fol
lowing morning. A gentleman to
whom we are indebted for this infor
mation, states that he slaughtered
575 cockroaches in a single night, by
me'iis of the poke root and Mnlases—
a.id that the root which lias been
boiled being thrown into a closet,
thickly invested hy the enemy, the
place was united entirely in a few
days, great numbers being left dead
upon I ho field.
The smell of tho poke root at
tracts the cockroach—-he is tempted
and eats it—swells incontinently, and
perishes almost immediately.
It seems that the public discussion
bclween’Mr. 0. & Mr. C. had not pro
duced any animosity between, these
gentlemen; for, w r c are informed,. Mr.
Owen called upon Mr. Campbell at

Neilson’s office, who, fortunately be

on a mattress, and continually rubbed
by seven or eight persons over every
part: in about twenty minutes, some
signs of life were discovered; the
nibbing was continued with a succes
sion of warm blankets, for an hour
and a half, without any other remedy,

who describes the gold mania in that
