U1 lODE I8L A \ D SEN ATOR.—The gen
eral assembly of Rhode Island has balloted re
jicatedl v, on successive days, for a United States’
Senator, but has made no election. Tne can-
didalcs were, Potter, a democrat and friend of
the administration; Green, n bank-whig; and
Sprague, an anti-mason The whole number
of votes was eighty two; of which, through
most of the ballotings, Potter received thirty,
Green received torty. Sprague received eleven,
-and Knight (a bank-whig) received one. There
was no symptom of yielding on any side; and
the general assembly of that state, after its
tnanv fruitless efforts, abandoned the d *sign of
electing a senator din ing its present session.
.. .. , ... A SPLENDID HORSE.—We have, in the
mu. in direct opposition to the instructions o! , , , . • ■ . .
11 State, a great many horses, which are tolerably
active, or tolerably strong, or tolerably hand
some, or tolerably long-winded; but we have
very few horses which posses any of these quali
ties m an eminent degree. A horse possessing
them all, in high perfection, is an extraordina
ry phenomenon; and such an animal is now
owned in Milledgeville—Andrew, the property
of Messi’s. A. II. Kenan and T. B. Howard.—
He is believed, by connoisseurs, to be the fines',
horse ever brought into Georgia. He is of the
best English race, and was purchased in Vir
ginia, at an immense price. Why should plan
ters propagate an inferior race? Without any
reference to the pleasures or the speculation of
the turf, why should any man raise a horse
worth one hundred dollars, when it is as easy to
raise a horse worth three hundred dollars? We
hope the suggestion will not be lost. We can
perceive no reason why the climate and soil of
Georgia should hr* deemed less favorable to the
rearing of this noble animal, titan those of An
dalusia, or of Arabia.
ATTEMPTED ASSASSINATION OF
THE PRESIDENT.—In the failure of the
attempt to assassinate the president, the coun
try Inis escaped a signal calamity, for which j
fervent thanks should he devoutly rendered to ;
a kind, overruling Providence. The assassina-I
tion of the benefactor of his country, while re- |
presenting the peaceful authority of our laws,
would have impressed a horrible stain on the
annals of our country. It would have exaspe- ;
rated partv feeling to the most extreme rancor.
To repress the suspicion, that the hand of the
assassin had been employed by the political
enemies of the president, would have been im
possible; and this suspicion would have generat
ed the deepest abhorrence, and the most impla
cable resentment. It is difficult to conceive the
evils which might have flowed from the atro
cious crime, laid it succeeded in accomplishing
its direful object.
We cannot, lor a moment, entertain such a
suspicion; we cannot admit the belief, that there
is a single American, honored with the confi
dence of any portion of the American people,
so base as to seek the life of his enemy, by the
hand of an assassin.
JUDGE WHITE.—The nullifiers are a sin
gularly perfect model of inconsistency; they
are constantly exhibiting so me new and striking
developement of this prominent trait in their
character. Not long since, in their estimation,
every man who sustained the principle of the
proclamation and tiie revenue-collection hill,
was a collar-man, a slave, a profligate partisan,
an unprincipled and base tool of a tyrant.—
Judge White sustained the principles of the
proclamation, and voted lor the revenue collec
tion bill; and was equally obnoxious with the
other friends of the administration to the fran
tic vituperation of the nullifiers. It now suits
tiieir policy to praise Judge White; and they
have very seasonably discovered, that, notwith
standing his support of the tyrannical proclama
tion. and the bloody lorce-bill, “HIS PURI TY
AND PLAINNESS OF CHARACTER, AND
LONG TRIED REPUBLICAN FAITH AND
PRACTICE AFFORD THE BEST PLEDG
ES HUMANITY CAN GIVE,” that be will
resist “the corruptions that are destroying the
government;” “that he is a prominent disciple
of the state rights school.”* If they are sin
cere in the praises which they itow lavish on
Judge White, their frantic opposition to the doc
trines of the proclamation and the force-bill,
was a false and hollow pretext, a deceptive ar
tifice played off to delude the peopl**, and excite
an unjust prejudice against the administration ;
and its supporters; and the doctrines of the pro- j
damnation and the force-bill arc the doctrines of | p rom ,/ ie national Intelligencer.

The prisoner is a handsome young man, well dressed, anj

out of his visiisto the capiiol, and that h*nring desnorism

that th ■ infatuat al young man fanci-d h ■ ha.l reasons to be

Mr. Calhoun’s speech th** day before yesterday, he would

who was represented as the cans’* o 1 ' the most dr.-ndful ca-
lamities to the nation—as one who made p'rf-ct roltcnness
and corruption to p rvad th . vitals of the government—in
somuch that it was scarcely worth preserving, if it were
possible.
Judge Cranch saw nothing in the conduct of the prison

under any m ntal malady. H- ent- red up an order that h ■

The French Treaty —Th - arrival of th? packet ship Erie,

allusion to the infl 'xible economy which the chamber in

The Constihitionel, also, in remarking on th-* inanif‘stations

Th ■ Boston Rost, after making a few extracts from Gov.

“VVe particularly admire t he republican energy of Gov-

The Pennsylvanian of lit? 2 it h u!t. contains the following
article under the h<*ad of
Troubles among the Lawyers.
A great excitement exists in I 'niontown. Pa. and in the re
mainder oft he good county of Fayette, on account of a war
between Judge Thomas II. Baird and the bar. Up to the
last dates, the Judge appeared to have the upper hand, hav
ing stricken eight members of th° har from lh? roll, viz;
John M. Austin, John DawM.it, Joshua B. Howell, John H.
Deford, Joseph Williams, K P. Flennik -r, late Attorney
neral, William 1*. Wells, and Alfred Patterson. Samuel
F Evans may also be included in the lisf, as he rose in
Court and requested to he stricken off also, having no notion
of being a member of a Court, vvh *re such discipline w as to
he enforced, or to sivc his sanction to it in any shape; so that
nine m-mbers of th" Fayette bar have b'».?n visited with the
burning wrath of Thomas If. Baird, President Judge of lha
fourteenth Judicial District of Pennsylvania The turmoil in
Fayette may easily he imagined as th* .lawyers above men
tioned comprise two thirds of the members of the Union bar.
The Union Times says:
‘The explosion of Court last week, lias affected the inter
ests of almost every holy. The tavern keep *rs, who had
prepared f.r a two weeks’ court, are grumbling over their
uneaten poultry, and full decanters—th? public officers are
grumbling at the loss of foes—the lawyers are groaning and
grumbling, and so are their clients. One man we saw yes
terday, who hail travell >d all th** way from Ohio to attend a
suit, and behold when h'*arriv-d—here, court, lawyers and
all, were blown sky high ”
From what we can gather from the documents published
in the Limes, it appears that judge Baird whs assaulted some-
tun ago in the street hy a disappointed suitor; and that he
attributed it in a great measure to the improper behaviour
of the lawyers, who by side bar remarks, and expressions of
dissatisfaction, &o. had brought th* court into contempt.
He tlmrefore addressed a letter to the members of the bar,
requesting a co-operation to facilitate reform, and secure re
ap *ct to the court.
“.4- to ■mgelf' sal l’he Judge, “7 have no right lo claim
your friendship, though I should he glad to have it, hut I
think itt th ■ dtschurg ■ of my official duties, I ought to have
your courtesy and respect, and when i err, forbearance in
munnerand r-cours* toth * proper rein >dy (which 1 am al
ways disposed to facilitate) and not to inflammatory expres
sions, or disapprobation or contempt addressed to the pub
ic or to the party.”
H? concludes hy requesting the sentiments and determin-
stiouof the gentlcrn*n to whom the letter was addressed.
They replied, under dot? of October 3d; regretted the want
of harmony: stal'd that public confidence appeared to be
withdrawn alike from the court and the bar, and finished
hy saving that as his honor had intimated a willingness to
retire from the bench, perhaps his doing so nnd the selection
of another officer in his place, would produce a better state
of things.
Th ■ Judge, in ansvv >r. vv ‘nt, at large into’the mvter; and
said that he had compromised his own dignity in asking that
reform which he should have comp.4led. lie thought that
their request for a resignation involved acharge of official de
linquency; and left it to their professional judgment wheth
er the intimation that public confidence was withdrawn from
the court, was not indictable as a lib-d. In conclusion, lip
stated distinctly lhat lv would not resign, at least not at
pre-cut; he exculpated th * lawyers front instigating the attack
onhtm. &c.&e.
The letters from Judge Ban) show a mind laboring under
cxciti ment. The gontl 'nv’n by whom they were received,
published the whole correspondence, and from that arose
the chief lroubles;
On Tuesday. January 6th, a rule was granted upon J. M.
Austin. &c. to show cause why they should not he stricken
front th list of attorneys; they prot.-sted, &c. The judg
ment of the court, Jndg. s Baird and Porter, was deliver'd,
and th*' aforsaid attorneys were reduced to the ranks, prin
cipally for publishing to the world that public confidence
g. etnai lobe withdrawn both from the court and th° bar.
.lodge Nixon dissented. Petitions are circulating for the re
moval of Mr. Baird. The popular feeling appears to set a-
gainst him.
Change of Name.—In lh? senate of New York, January
15, the hill to change the name of Mr. Crab, wns object' d
to. To meet this objection Mr. Bishop said he did not deem
the rul ■ binding on th senate. He hop«*d the senate would

to make him happy, but while she accedes to his personalat-
iructions bis name carries w ith it so many disagreeable as

Mr. Young. Th • lady is not fond of shellfish.
Mr. laming in answering an objection, said that a few
years ago a Mr. Codd applied to the legislature to have It is
name changed; and when the bill was (.cforc th* senate in
committee, it was moved to change it hy adding Fish to jt,
so as to give him the name of .M r . Cod.'/f*L He was deci
dedly opposed to gratifying the whims or caprice of any in
dividuals by changing their names.
In opposing the bill 51 r. Macdonald said it would he sett
ing had precedent, and opening a door for innumeraJdo ap
plications. If the gentleman from the fourth, (Mr. Bishop,)
should chance to become tenderly affected toward a yottne
lady who was not of the episcopalian belief, she might rejer't
him because of his nant*, and then,as n last resort he would
apply to have it changed Or if the gentleman from tlie se
cond (Mr. Maisoti,’ should solicit a young lady of the rt'fp.M
shirt gentry, sh* might reject hint hecmise of his mechanical
cognomen, and then a petition to the legislature would of
coifse follow.
After some further conversation, tho hill was rejected—
twelve to nine.

A letter from London, in ihe Boston Courier, says—A
word of St. Paul's; for it is one of the sights that must he
seen and described. Howard, tlie Benevolent (what a glo
rious title) has a full length figure standing on chains and re
lieving prisoners, lie “had the good fortune to be honored
while living, in the manner his virtues deserved"—a rare
reward of virtue. II* trod an open hut unfrequented route
to immortality; he made a splendid “circumnavigation of
charity.” His sympathies were expensive—they embraced
all thai stiff-r. Would ho were now alive, to fond his in
defatigable energies to a cause greater than that in w hich he
died—lhat of temperance.
I have not yet seen in London one white house; th* bricks
are of a dark mud colour begrimed with stnokc; yet 1 never
saw a city so neatly kept as the West-End, and the whole is
remarkably free from al! nuisances bulir.'ral one.—The gas
lights of the lamp-posts nnd shops are very brilliant.
The main streets are illuminated—there is a blaze oE light
Police-men in blue coalsand while binding are very frequent
and there is enough for them to do. litre no doors may
be left ajar—if not shut with a spring lock, a thief will be
sure to rind out lha tact and rob lit? house.

Later from France.—By the packet ship Poland, captain
Anthony, we have revived Paris and Havre papers both to
the evening of December 16iu. They contain very little,
news.
Tim Poland brought despatches for government from our
minister at Paris.
The proceedings in the chamber of d *puti"s are one day
Liter; hut little husituss was done. An election took place
for a vice president of the chamber, which resulted in ihe
choice nf M. Passy, oneof th* ministers of th: three days,
and a decided opponent to the execution of the indemnity
treaty.
We perceived an account in an English paper of a claim
set up by the emperor of Russia against France, for indem
nity forinjuries inflicted on Poland. We have now the ori
ginal article in ].e Constitutional, which concludes with these
words:—“But the ductrinary cabinet w hich acknowledged
the American debt, and continues to acknowledge it in spits
of the chamber, will submit to any conditions, however hu
miliating or burthensorne, that may be imposed upon it.”
Paris, December IS.—After a council of Ministers, held
yesterdy morning, the first division of the Polytechnic
School was discharged. Tho pupils composing trial divi
sion, to the number of 113, quit the establishment this
morning.
December 17.—The ordinance dismissing the first divi
sion of the Polytechnic School, has been carried into execu
tion. It was at th'* mom nt that the professor was expected
yesterday, nt the lecture room, that the general, accompa
nied hy the director of the studies and lh? officers ol the
school, came to announce their dismissal toth? pupils of the
first division. He exhorted them to receive this news with
calmness and resignation. '1’he general w as greatly affect

The prosecution of Mr. Rouen, the nominal proprietor of

the fine imposed, nearly the whole ofit was collected. The

note:
