ASH- ^ ffHOM THE HALLOWELL |_MAINe] GAZETTE, JUNE 12. DISTRESSING CASUM/VY. *; It has become our painful duty to record one of the most melancholy occurences that have ever been witnessed in this sec tion of bur country. On. Wednesday last, a Urge number of the- citizens of Winthrop, with several' people from the adjoining towns,,.were assembled for the purpose of raising the frame of the new congregational meetinghouse in that place. The work proceeded prosperously until the main part of (lie frame and about half the roof were raised. Between forty and fifty men were striding on that part where the rafters had riot been raised, and their weight rested MISREPRESENTATIONS CORRECTED, The Editor nf the Richmond Patriot having ex* hausted his inventive powers, exerted upon the public acts of Mr. Crawford, has resorted to the reservoir of slander and falsehoods generally de- sigpsted bj the title of Governor Clark's book. From this kennel he has copiously regaled tlic readers of the Patriot. He asserts that this book was published before the Governor’s Election to the Chief Magistracy in November 1819} and (hut, consequently, his. election in that year, and in the year If'21, prove; conclusively that the facts and opinions contained in tnat publication bav< been sanctioned by the deliberate verdict of the people of this state. Nowthefac is that the pub lication of General Clark’s book did not take place until the latter part of the year 1820; so the Pa triot ts entirely mistaken on this point—indeed we believe it to be a wilful mistake. It may be useful to state a few facta on Ibis subject. In t819 Clark w&s elected, in opposition to Troup by a majority of thirteen votes. In September or October 1820, the bonk was published, and at the election of Governor in Novemb -r 1821, ( lark was elected in opposition to bun by two votes.— The advantage of being in office alone saved him from defeat But the advantage would not have shved him from the disgrace ol expulsion from office Between his first and second ciectim bout eight new counties had been organized, each having one Senator and one Representative, eve~ ty one of whom voted for Clark. This fact will be attested by every well informed member of the Legislature, and is well known to General Clark himaelf. H is, therefore, apparent that the same counties which gave him 13 votes over - Col Troup in 1819, gave a majority of 14 votes pr pcipally upon a single beam,at the height gainst him in 1821. In 1822 the Legislature of of about 2j& feet from the lower floor, and. Georgia formed Sve new Counties which gave which, as we learn, had nothing but a very j one Senator and one Representative, all of whom slender spar to support it. As they were j wer e decidedly in favor of Clark, with the excep. attempting to raise a pair ol rafters, (his < tion of two votes. Notwithstanding this addition- spar gaye way,^whenjhe beam wa» mMamly ^ ^ acce8S i on 0 f strength and the advantage of be- “ “ *“ " ~ *""" ' ing in the Executive chair, Gen., Clark after as- the br ken in the middle, and most of the men, I semity to whioh his ignorance and his bad dispasi titm has consigned him. Such is tlie veracity nt the Editor of the Patriot, such is the character of the man who undertakes to enlighten public o pinion upon the Presidential question. Ilia judgement is as vicious as bis veracity, or he would never have resorted to Gen. Clark’s book as au. thority to injure any other man but the General himself. A deliberate examination of that book, by a man of intelligence, whose mind is untainted by prejudice, cannot fail to produce the convic thin that it is a tissue of falsehood and misrepre presentation, e'en if he should be entirely gnorant of the characters of the vetors. It i* is not, then, surprising that the dacision of Georgia, where the dramatis person0 are known, should consign the book and its author to the pub lic detestation. NEW HAMPSHIrITnOT YET LOST. We learn from the New Hampshire Patriot, that the Grand Legislative Caucus recently held at Concord the seat of Government, did not consist of all the members of the Legislature There are In the House of Representatives 204 members —in the Senate 12—Governors Council 6.—Of the above number 166 attended the Caucus and the votes were as follows : Adams ^ 161 Crawford 1 4 Jackson 1 of those who refused to attend the Caucus 51 were Republicans of the Old School and 5 were Fede ralists. The presumption is strong thnt the fifty six which did viol attend were the decided friends of Mr. Crawford. The false reports of t he alarm ing. indisposition of Mr. Crawford, and the probv bility of his withdrawing in consequence from the Presidential contest, which ha< e b en cirCu lated with tbe rapidity of lightning arrived just on the eve of the caucus and paralized the efforts of his friends. Had the situation of his health been distinctly known, and all the members atten. ded we hazard little in saying tbe votes would have been nearly equally divided between Mr. Crawford and Mr Adams. A writer in the South Carolina Columbia Tele. The eonstniction of rail ways, or as they are of ten called, tram, dram, or waggon rea ls not bring within the 'Cooe of this enquiry, and being inap- plicable to the present condition of the country, will tint receive the attention to which it would otherwise he entitled, by their importance and utility in other countries The constructing of bridges, for crossing canals, often occasion a very serious part of their whole expense, and this circumvance gave origin, to the substitution of paved fords in many instances. Tne lowing path, horse path, or hauling wuy, of a canal, should always be on the lower side if prac ticable, the traffic on the t une having a tendency to consolidate the new made bank The height of the towing path, ought not to h- less than one foot, or more than two or three feet, above tbe surface of the water, or tup water line. —It is not perceived why an excellent turnpike road should not be made on one of the bank* of any canal—the writer is under the impression that such a u*e is made of the banks of some canals, and he is sure that he has read of it name a here, but his memory does not point out the particul.r information in regard to it, and his experience h not sufficient to enable him to speak with certain ty, as to its existence or practicableness The construction of boats for canals requires some notice—It has been observed “that the area of a cross section, of a boat to be used on a canal, .ought not to approach, so near to the area of a cross section of the water in the canal na 1 to 3; or considerable inconvenience will arise, both from the incrcaaed resistance of the boat, and the damage to the banks, from the counter current, to fill up the space tbe boat leaves in the rear. The moving of boats upon canals is an important consideration—Tlicrfe is hardly any limit to the load which one horse can move, in a number of barges attached together, when guing with a pro- portionably slow space, and this has occasioned some canal advocates to assert that one horse will on a canal, draw as much aa sixty on the road. On most canals it is usual to employ a hunt to t»c)i barge There are many other Considerations which might enter into a more enlarged and complete view of the subjec 1 ; but as the writer, has only promised to lay before the public tho knowledge of others upon cnnnlling, he thinks he has redeem ed the pledge—If it leads to any good, be will be amply compensated for the time and trouble which the undertaking required in its execution. At all events he lias endeavored to be useful!, and n< that was his only object he hopes to be pardoned for all its imperfections.
