IncmtAittt]} VubUcatuma, It u with feelings of unqualified satisfac tion we perceive that our fell"w country* men of Boston have taken tf.p the subject of incendiary pamphleteering. Judge Thatcher of the Municipal Court of that city, in hiv chutge to 'he Grand Ju ly, dwell with a proper emphasis ujion the pcrniciuu* and abominable practice, fii common among a ccr'ain class, of in undating oursnuthern country with Tracts and Papers calculated to disserrtina'e se dition and disaffection among our colour ed population. From this charge, replete at it is with good sense, and a pbilanthro phy founded on right reason, we make the following extracts . •• Now (ientlemen, it is undoubtedly a misdemeanor, and indictable a a such at common law, for on to attempt to persuade another to commit mu.der, robbery, or any other crime, whether such persuasion b> verbal or written f and whether the of fence be perpetrated in consequence of such peru&sion or not. So it is a misdemeanor to attempt to commit any crime where iht unlawful intent is manifested by an over act, which indicates such intent. It is noi malarial whether the crime is tobe perpetrat ed here, or in some o'her place. It is suf ficient, if it be shown (hit the unlawful in tent existed here, and hit the deed whief manifested that intent war done in this country. To publish a paper here, wits the intent to send it to another State to per suade one or mure persons to commit mur der, or 'reason, the law regards as a lihel of peculiar atrocity, and our supposed free dom of the press will screen the author or pub'isher from the penal cunaequences of the deed. In that country from which we drew our principles of jurisprudence, it is laid down by the highest judicial authority, that every publication which has a tendency to p o rame public mischief, whether by causing irritation in the minds of the pp- pie, that in ,y in iuce hem to c*mm,t a breach of ihe p. !*lic pr ice, or whe her it be more pub'ic and specific, -*xtpn<Jnig to the morals, the religion, rin gistracy of 'he enmity —is it libel A V pubtica'i >n wbich tends to de grade revile and defame persons in consi ders.! e sit iatr ns 1 power and digui y in foreign countries, is taken te be and treated ss a iihel, and particularly where it has a tendeni yto ii.t-e, upt the pacific relations between the two c mollies. If the publica tion contains a pi in ami manifest inCitu mcot ami p, rsuasnm addiessed to others, to assassinate and destroy ihe person* of such magistrates us the lemlency is to in terrupt the hanm ny of the two c entries, the libel assumes a still mare criminal in tention. . Every good citizen must, 1 think, wish ♦ hat harmony may subsist, between us and die citizens of all the other Slates. Hut huw is this Union long to be preserved - , if those who enjoy its benefits, cherish towards esch other mutual hatred f II publication* which have a direct tendency to excite the Slave population of other States, to rise up on their masters, and to involve their fami lies upd property, in a common destruction, are h'Te published and circulated freely, may not the ci'izens of those States well im igre, hat such publications were justi fied ~„d encouraged here, ii would lend to alienate from each other the minds of those, whose beai political h ppiness and safety c ,si« in pr -serving in its lull strength* the bond of Union. Believing that he laws of this Common weaft.h a cnot liable to this reproach, I deem it i«i be mi du y to express to you. rd this time, my opinio'i, that to publish books, paiiiphlels or newspapers, designed to be circulated here and in other Utatesof the Union, and having adiiect and necessary tendency to excite in the minds of our own ci z iis deadly hatred end hostility against their brethren of otoer States, and lo slim ulafe the slave population there to rise a gainst their mas'ers, and to effect by fire and sword (heir emancipation, is an off net against ihe peace of this Common wealth, and ih.U it may be prosecuted ns a nfisde m-anor a common law. It is said, that pamphlets and papers of such chnractei have been published iu this coy, and seni into the Southern Slates, A that they, havi caused great alarm and complaint there It cannot be denied that it is just cause both of alarm and complaint. Somelimt since, a pamphlet was put into my hand* the author if which, I am informed, hat since deceased, which contained, as I tho’t enough inflammable matter on this subject to set ail die States south of the Poloin.ii into a blaze. However unwise and unjus may be the system of domestic serviude it is not for us to put into the bands of th slave the sword and the brand. Nor cm any civil or servile war rage in any otht Slate of this Union, without affecting, ii some degree, our own peace—since we mu bo compelled, by our political relation, t bear a part in the conflict. I cannot bu hope, therefore, that our citizens, if any o them are so inclined, will retrain, in future from such dangerous publications—that the will leave to those, who tcel and softer froii the calamity, to find a remedy and redres for the wrongs of slavery—to time, whicl meliorates every thing—to the enlighleuei and humane spirit of our age—and to th benign influences of Christianity.” Ha-denins; the Constit ition.

On the change of season —aa soon m autumn approaches, before winter comes, ’ .every one should adopt a clothing waim in * proportion to the cold that may sei in The common practice of postponing this change, with a view of hardening the co i p solution, 'S highly dangerous. Many a youth has never lived to see manhood ; be e cause he would reserve waim clothing for his old age.

II London, March 27. i e i The recaption of .he Reform Bill by the' P 'Ci s, last night, was not very different from what many people hnd expected. A c declaration was made by Lord Harrowby, ' that there were new provisions in the pre- j J sent bill, whioi he considered improve-! J ments upon the last; that, however much of it was nf such "a democratical tendency;” I and, if e’luc’ed into a law, would prove, in l ’ his opinion, so dangerous to our institutions, II that he did not conceive the possibility of his i 1 ever being able to support it. Lord Har ’ rowby added. v;hat must have cost bun a> J painful s'ruggle, and 'he confession is therc-j fore honorable to hi* lordship’s candor, viZ. 1 iha' af'er all the jme allowed to the people 1 j of the United Kingdom for a sober conside ration of the sii jec;, owing io the rejection *I of ihe f rmer Bill, he, Lord Harrowby, felt him«elf bound to acknowledge 'll it the pub lic eagerness to see the principles of the j 1 measure b ought into ac'ive operation, had ! in r.o degree suosided, and 'ha' a material change in irr representa ive system was al together uiiuvoidable. His Loruship an -1 nouoced his full intention to vnle for a sec ond reading. Lord Wherncliffu spoke p<e ! -! 1 tyinuch in the Same sense.

It ws, however, sufficiently obvious, ' f rom the tone of both these m ble lords, that' the tnos regolu e and uncompromising re-, tis'tnoe will be made by them to ihose pro-, * vts.o.i ’of he Bill to which the country ' gene: ally iia. tuch ‘ th? highes, value j jand importance; and tnai, if, in any minis -1 ‘dial quarter, a credulous hope of a majori-j ' ty for Reform in the Lord’s Committee , should be founded on what tell from either!

In spite of the proclama d lionet Gen Corbiores, and his assurance i- that lie does not intend to meddle with the pontifical Government, taut, on the contrary, wishes to protect the authorities, respect the laws, and repress the factions, his Ad jutant Major, Ste.

Among others, permission was not given to the pontifical ! troops, who retired from Autona by their | Sovereign’s order, to carry off their own effects which they had in th* barracks.

Answer. —On the evening of the JSth.l think after tea was over, at my boarding house, 1 stepped into the room of Mr. Grundy ; we sat there converging for a few moments. Governor H. entered the out i ward door, and passed dov?n the passage, intending, as 1 thought, to pass the door of i Mr, Grundy, which was partly open at that nine Ashe came opposite the deor he ■ halted and looked in. I spoke to him, and tasked him into the room ; we indulged a • 'while in idle playful conversation, Mr. - Blair, who was in the adjoining room, in a i few minutes stepped in alao. Gov. Hous ■ lum w s relating some anecdotes, which ('occupied our attention some fifteen op twen ty minutes, when Mr. Blair and myself )'rose to retire. We walked out of the room, »!it being a very fine evening, and turned -'carelessly toward# the outward door, not' , .having any particular object in view. Go-| : vernor Houston came after us, and as he i stepped out of the door, took c&ch of us by the arm, one on each side of him, and - bore us up the Avenue. We continued in , light conversation, wa'king slowly, till we ; come to 'he cross street which runs up to the - city hall, across the avenue at the end of the 5 brick pavement ; when we got to that place, I Mr. Blair observed that we had gone far 1 enough ; we had gone half way with Hous 31ton. and that to be polite he ought to go f back with us. Houston answered nc ;say o ing, I think, that he had company, and ) must go back. At that time we all faced -about, Houston was rather in the rear, Mr, 3 Blair a little in the advance on the right. . After we faced about, Mr. Blair moved off . very briskly, without waiting for me to go n with him. I was surprised at this move , meat, and asked Houston what makes Blair ,go oft* so fast. Houston was standing not e direc'ly facing the palings, but rather quar t tering towards it, and quartering to me ; e without answering my question, he appear .. ed to shift 'he position of his feetl ! saw no s thing at the time, but soon discovered a ii gentleman coming across the Avenue, and . pretty near to us, and near to the pave ment ; at the time I did nut recognize the individual when I first observed'’him, but as he approached nearer and was in the act t ot putting his foot upon the pavement, 1 - discovered it to be Mr. Stanbery, It oc curred to me that there would be a difficul o ly between them, haviug understood pre - vmusly hat there had been dissatsifaction s between them, Houston did not reply to e my quos'ion. As Stanbery approached , nearer, he appeared to halt in his place. Houston asked if that was Mr. Stanbery he replied, very politely, sod bowing at the same time,” Yes, Sir;”then, Sbicl Houston, you are the damned lascal , and with that, struck him with a stick which he held in hie hand. Stanbery threw up htah-- 1 his head and 'oact, tm •« u and he exclaimed, “Oh, don’t.” Hot stuff continued to follow him up, and continued to#Tike him. A ftei receiving several Severn h! i««, Stanbery turned, » -W-t. * fu.. off Houston, at that moment, apt ung upon ' him in the .ear, Stanbery’# arena hanging down, apparently defenceless. He seized him and attempted to throw, but was not , able to do so. Staobery carried him about * 'on the pavement some little time; whether t he extricated hiiasell, or Houston thrust him from him, 1 am not able to deter mine. I thought he thruat him from him; as he passed him, he struck him and gave ■ him a trip, Stanbery fell; when he tell, he still continued to halloo; indeed, he hal : loed alt the time pretty much, except when i they were scuffling. I saw Stanbery, after having received several blows, put out both hands in this way, he then lying on his back I did not discover what was in his hands, or if any thing was; but 1 heard a sound like: i the snapping of a gun lock, and I saw parti cles of fire. Houston appeared to take hold i of Stanbery’s hands, and took something from them, which 1 could not see. After that, Hous ton stood up more erect, still i beating Stanbery with a itick over the head* arms, and sides; Stanbery still kept hie his hands spread out. After Houston’s giv ing him several other blows, he lay on his > back & put up his feet, Houston then struck him elsewhere. Mi. Stanbery. after having 1 received several blows, ceased to halloo, & lay, a* I though', perfectly still. All this > time I had nut spoken to either of the par ties, or interfered in any manner whatever. ' 1 now thought that Stanbery was badly hurt, ' or perhaps killed, from the manner in which i he lay. I stepped up to Houston to tell him to desist, but without being spoken to, he quit of his own accord. Mr. Stanbery iheo. got up on his feet, and 1 then saw the pistol in the right hand of Governor Houston, for the Erst time. Some altercation passed be* i tween them; Houston observed that he had takan the pistol frera Stanbery. Mr. S an bery, about that time, asked Hmston “why 'be attempted to assassinate him in the i night f” Houston replied, “he had not at tempted toistsassinalo him, but had chastis ed his for haying traduced his reputation.” By this time, a crowd had gathered round; 8c soma person. 1 do not know who, spoke lo Houston—Houston replied, "that he attend ed to hn business, and that ha had chastii. ed the damned scoundrel; if he had offend ed the law, he would answer for what he had done,” He repeated “that he had armed him, & borne off his pistol.” Hous ton then walked oft’ and left me; then, after •landing for a few moments, f walked off k' left Stsnbery standing with the crowd f istt no morn nf it.
