Such is the language employed hy the Whigs of
Charles City—the native county of Mr. Tyler—in
justification of their condemnation of the Presi
dent's recent conduct. Many of the gentlemen
who composed that meeting, were not only the
neighbors and friends of Mr. Tyler—hut they
were his relations. When his neighbots and kin
dred aro constrained to censure, it is time for him
to look about and inquire: ‘what have I done that
my enemies praise me?” —Richmond Whig,
HeacuiANtusi.—The excavations into Her
culaneum, have revealed us a world of informa
tion. The hiatory of the remains of that ancient
city ha* hoen rend eagerly by every lover of know
ledge. It is little else than a resurrection ol the
dead citizens of Herculaneum with all their lux
uries around them. As yet wc have not however
penetrated in the very depths and inmost recesses
of this slumbering repository of past ages. The
philosophers of our day have therefore resol red
to dig down to the very foundation atones of this
mysterious seat of antiquity.
The undertaking we learn is to he. carrried on
by the Neapolitan government Negotiations
have been cominoncad already for the purchase,
of various estates on the spot. A commission
of antiquarians and architects are to he appoint
ed by the Minister of the Interior and the Roy
al Academy of Sciences, to preside over I hr, op
erations of the workmen.
We shall wail in anxiety to hear of the many
marvellous relics that will be brought to light,
that have not been visited by the sun’s beams lor
many bye-gone centuries.
AeroisTMEBT. — We feel much pleasure in
announcing the appointment, with the approba
tion of the Hon. the Secretary of the Treasury of
Wii.i.iam W. Wash, Esq., as Deputy Collector
(or the Port and District of Savannah. Wc un
derstand that Mr. Wash entered upon the duties
of his office yesterday. —Savannah Republican.
We understand (says the A ulionol Intelligent
cer of the Ist instant) that the Secretary of the
Treasury has selected the following Dunks as the
agencies of the United Slates lor the payment of
the interest on the Public Debt:
Hunk of the Metropolis, Washington.
The Merchants’ Dank, Boston.
The Dank of Commerce, New-York.
It is not every one that knows how to give ad
vice. The editor of the New York Atlas has
tried his hand, and, to tell the Irulh, he kas suc
ceeded prally well. We copy his instructions.
Let them be followed:
Don’t let small affairs bother yen. There is
no use in crying over spilt milk.
If men owe you, and won't pay, and you can’t
compel them to, consider it so much paid in tui
tion just to learn patience and resignation. If
you owe and can’t pay, trust that you are doing
your very best to learn your creditor the same
lesson.
If your wife elopes with your neighbor, be
thankful that you are rid of a woman of such
principles, and pity, as you must, the man who
is obliged to take care of Iter.
Don’t fall in lovo, if you can help it. If you
do,consider whether it will be more trouble to
gain the object of your Directions or do without
her, and act accordingly ; of two evils choosing
the least.
Consider every event as a part of the expsti
ence of existence, without which you would have
live to less purpose.
If a friend prove treacherous, you have a dis
play of human nature; if your mistress is false
to you, there is another fact in your philosophy
of humanity, and just consider how monotonous
the world would be, if every thing in life went
smoothly.
Reflect that were all mankind good, true, kind,
generous, noble and disinterested, these words
would have no meaning. How stupid it would
he in man to praise virtue, were there no such a
thing as vice ; how absurd to talk of constancy,
wore fickleness not known ; and who would ever
prize truth, honor or generosity, wore there no
falsehood, meanness or avarice I
Were there no suffering, where would ho com
passion, piety and condolence I Were there no
oppression anil distress, what used o) philanthro
py ? Thus the highest virtues of humanity de
pend upon the vices and miseries of which we
complain. So the very springs of happiness are
in misery, and from the had comes the go id.
Be content then. Took and labor for the best,
hut bear calmly and patiently the worst. T.iis is
true philosophy, ami the very host advice wc can
give,
A late Remarkable trial at Glhmllar.
At Gibraltar, a month or two ago, there occur
red one of (hose extraordinary cases which show
us how inelfectively the romuncist, even when
his imagination is strained to the uttermost, ran
pourlray the extremes of passion of which human
nature is susceptible. A communication, tear
ing dale February 20th, from the rock-built for
tress which England keeps as a key to the Medi
terranean, relates the following particulars :
A respectable merchant, named .lames Uax
well, born at London, hud removed in early life
to Gibraltar, induce,) paitly hy the circumstances
ol his being of the same religious persuasion to
which the people of his adopted country be
longed. For many yeais ho occupied a small
dwelling near the base of Mount St. Michael, so
renowned for its caves and crystallisations, lie
curried on a successful traffic in all the articles as
British manufacture introduced into Spain. He
acquired, in Irulh, a very considerable fortune in j
this way. All the country knew that he had a '
large amount ot treasure lying on him, not to 1
speak cl the capital belonging to him, which was |
embarked in commerce. His name was one of 1
credit in all tho principal houses ol exchange in
Europe.
•lames llaxwell had a daughter, an only daugh- 1
ter. aged seventeen, and of remarkable beauty.
Her countenance unci figure combined in a most I
agreeable manner tins peculiar charms of the Rn- '
ghsh woman with ihe soft and* languishing char- 1
aeteristics of the Spaniard. Young as she was.
she had been for some two or three years snob- 1
ject of devoted admiration to all the youths
around Gibraltar. At church they devoured her !
with llieir eyes; and many, many a one thought
to himself that happy above all men would
who canid win the smiles of Elezia Baxwell. But
Elezin bestowed her smiles upon no one. She
teemad, to those whose involuntary sighs she
excited, to carry a maidenly modesty to freezing
coldness. At mass, her eyes were ever bent upon
lor ook, regardless ol all the glances cast upon
her by others. 1
Such was at least the case till shortly before
the event, to be narrated. At length, however,
Glezia did see one who awakened in herself some
“f the emotions which she had caused in others.
At mass, one day, she observed the eyes of a
young stranger fixed upon tier with an expres
sion of admiration and respect. To her he see,,,.
eve‘r Ten W"* 0 a " ~le ",e„ she had
ever yet beheld, from that moment her calm
Thr« l f ‘ P TTI ed d * mettUor M Her for ever I
Brn eret “‘.'T”’ "" J un.,« . !
But, ere long, the stranger found an opporumiiv
of being introduced to her. and mutual svT .
ut love followed at no great distance of time.
Assured ol the affections of Elezia the v
stranger then presented himselfTo Mr. Baxue |
cham-'T Katl,” «aid he to .W . ,e
--chan t, 1 am, like yoursell, an Englishman ; 1
am of respectable family and character, young
and wealthy. Give me your daughter—we love
one another.’’
“Never!" sai I James Baxwell, to whom tin
position and circumstances of the young mar
were not unknown; “never! You belong ti
the dominant religion ol England, Gy which m>
lathers sobered so much and so long. You an
a Lutheran and my daughter is a Catholic. Much
a union could not be happy, nor will I ever give
my consent to it. Elezia shall never be yours!”
The daughter, informed of this declaration
threw herself at the feet ol her father, and en
deavoied to move him from his purpose. Her
lover did the same. Hut the father remained ob
stinate, and a violent scone lock [dace between
Elezin and her parent. The blond of the fiery
south coursed in the daughter’s veins, and she
declared that she would marry the object of tier
choice, despite of all opposition. James Bax
well, an the other hand, declared that he would
sooner kill her with his own hands, than see her
carry such a resolution into effect. As to Wil
liam Kail, who stood by at this scene, he kept
silence. What thoughts were revolving in his
mind, it would he difficult to say.
Two days afterward, an alarming noise was
heard hy the neighbors to issue from a cave im
mediately adjoining the merchant’s house, and
used hy him for some domestic purposes. The
noise consisted at first of loud cries, which grad
ually became fainter, and at length died altogeth
er away. ’] he auditors looked at each other witli
amazement, and many were the conjectures as to
the cause of Ihe Hounds alluded to. A solution
of the mystery was not long in suggesting itself.
Elezia had disappeared ; she was no lunger to be
seen about her father's house. After many low
murmurs find circulated, the father was interroga
ted respecting his daughter. He said that she
was missing, certainly; hut whither she had gone
be knew nut. Hu had nothing whatever to do,
he said, with her disappearance.
This oxpLination was not satisfactory. The
whisper went abroad that James Baxwell as
sassinated his daughter, to prevent her marriage
with William Kan, and, ultimately, this conjec
ture was so forcibly pressed on Ihe attention of
the public authorities, that they were compelled
| to arrest James Bax well, and inquire into the mai
ler. The dwelling of the merchant was examin
ed, hut nothing criminatory was found. “Tho
cave is the place!” cried some of (he crowd.
The magistrates then descended into the cave,
and there, on lifting some loose stones, they found
: a portion of Elezia’s dress, sprinkled all over with
| blood. Tbry also discovered t small quantity
! of hair, clotted with gore, ami that hair was re
cognized by many as having been taken from the
head of Elezia.
Baxwell protested his innocence. But the
proof seemed strong against him, and ho wa« re
gularly brought to trial. The result was his con
viction for the murder of bis daughter, and his
condemnation to death.
On receiving sentence, tho unhappy merchant
trembled to excess, and aflcrward seemed utterly
overpowered by the dreadful nature of his situa
tion, He continued in a slate almost of total in
sensibility during the interval between his trial
and the day appointed for his execution. On
the morning of the latter day, the jailer came to
announce to him, for the final time, that the mo
ment of fate was at hand. Tho merchant was
seized again with a fearful trembling, and he
cried, what he had reiterated In all who saw him
in bis confinement, “ Before my Maker, I swear
that I am guiltless of my child's death !”
They led him out to the scaffold. There he
found, among alliers, William Kail, it should
have been said, was the most important witness
against him at Ilia trial, having repealed lo the
court the threat of assatsinalion which had been
uttered hy James Baxwell in his presence against
Elezia. No sooner did the doomed merchant be
hold Kail, than ho exclaimed, at tho very foot of
the scaffold, “ My friend in tno minute I shall be
in eternity, 1 wish lo die in pencowith ull men.
Give me your hand—l pardon you freely for the
injury your evidence has done to me.” Baxwell
said this with some composure, hut the effect as
his words upon KalUvere very striking. He be
came pals as death, and could not coaceal the
depth of his agitation.
Baxwell mounted the steps of the gallows slow
ly, and gave himself up to the hands of the exe
cutioner, lo undergo death by the rope. Accord
ing lo tin ancient cuitam of Gibraltar, the exe
cutioner commenced kis lust duties by crying in
a loud voice, “ Justice is doing ! Justice is do
ing!’’ He then placed Ike black bonnet on the
head ol the condemned merchant, and pulled it
down in front so as to cover the eyes. He had
just done this, when he was stopped in his pro
ceedings by a loud cry from the side of the scaf
fold—“ II is I wh» urn guilty! 1 alone/''
This cry came from William Katt. The ma
gistrates in attendance instantly called him for
ward, and demanded an explanation. The young
man avowed that he had carried olf Elezia, with
her consent, to he his wife, and that she was now
residing not far off, in concealment. But to her
he did not communicate other measures which he
had taken, cliu lly to revenge himself for the scorn
ot her father. He had contrived to cut olf a por
tion of her Imir while she slept. He had clothed
it witli the blood of a lamb, and had also sprinkled
in the same way a part of Elezia’s dross, which
ho hud purloined. These articles he had placed
to a cave, and there, also, ha had emitted person
ally those cries, which had borne so heavily a
gumst the me: chant. The generous pardon
which ihe merchant hud bestowed on him at the
seullold, had awakened (the young man said) in
stantaneous remorse in his breast, and compelled
him to bwn the truth. 1 his confession was part
ly made at the sealfold and partly afterwaui. As
soon as Katt had spoken out decisively, the exe
cutioner hud turned to James Baxwell to lake
j Irom him the insignia of death. The meicbanl,
j almost unobserved, had sunk down into a sitting
posture, Jhe Mack bonnet was Irawn by the
I executioner from elf his eyes and head. It was
! found that he was a corpse! No exertions had
l the slightest elfeclin awakening in him the spark
jof life. The physicians, saying all they could
j on such a subject, declared that lie had died (rein
the elfoct of strong imagination,
i William Katt was conducted to prison amid
j the clamors of the populace, there to await judg
j ment for his misdeeds.
j Elezia, the unhappy daughter of an unhappy
lather, retired lo a convent lor life, immediately
j O'* learning what had passed.
