.nisccllancoiss. Horrid murder and arson. A young woman named Klien Jewett, i boarding with Mrs. Townsend, of No. 41 Tliomas street, (a house of iii lame,) was murdered in her bed yesterday morning. The circunist.inces, as we have heard them, are as follows : Miss Jewett has been for some time the kept mistress of Francis I*. : Robinson, clerk in a respectable Mercan- ; tile house in Maiden lane, win* it appears, from some cause, became jealous, and de-; Mantled of her a minature likeness of him- j seif, which he had pre anted to her, and al- [ so some correspondence that had passed be tween them, which site refused to give rp. ' Nothing however occurred to lead to sup-| position that any violet,* c was intended. > O:i Saturday night, Robinson visited the house at the usual I. r, and remained with j lu*r until!J o’clock on Saturday morning; when he was heard b , those sSeepingjn the I lower part of the house, tu come dounj stairs and .hiding the front door locked, he ; called out to the family to k t him out ; he ) immediate iy thereafter went to the back ■ door,unbolted it, ano >nthe act of climbing | ove the fence, his cloak wtßcaught by a nali, j torn from his shoulder* and left on the fence.! with a sharp hatchet tied to its tassels, where it was found in tiie morning. A short time after he left, the inmates were nlarmed by a dense smoke which filled the house almost to suffocation. On going up stairs into the room of the unfortunate girl, the smoke was found to proceed from her bed which was on fire, and on which lav her dead body; her head mangled, three deep wounds having been inflicted*on her j temples and forehead. Suspicii ns immedi ately rested on Robinson, who was arrested about 8 o'clock at his boarding house in Liberty street, and conducted by the officers to Thomas street 1 where the murder was committed ami w here the coroner’s jury was sitting over the dead body. Verdict of the jury wilful murder. Robinson was after I the inquest examined at the police office, | and committed to Bridewell. Alter lenv-j •ng Thomas street, he went to hi , boarding j house, and retired to bed, doubtless with I the belt?' that the 1: e he had communicated : to the bed, would destroy the building and ad its inmates, and conceal his black heart ed crime 1 Robinson is a young man, ap parently above twelve years of age of good •address, and confident manne ’. [xV* F. Mr. Adv. From the York Herald. The following was received through the Post Office yesterday. j Mr. Editor:— Although I have com mitted an act which must forever damn me, nt least in my own estimation, should 1 nev er be brought to justice, I will if possible, make some atonement. I have for a lort" time been acquainted with Richard Robin son. A few months since lie*!uquireil, or rather 1 fancied he injured me. From that moment 1 swore revenge; night and day I tin died means to revenge myself yet r.one appeared. Not long since I visited t e Park I tieatre, Ellen was there, also Robinson. I proposed myself to Ellen, told tier I wished to be her companion for the night. 1 was rejected ; and for whom.'’ whyyottng Robinson. With hurried steps I leit toe Saloon. Iw as goaded to madness —I swore revenge—l sought it—l have found it. f 00l 1 fool that I have been—but my revenge, how was it attained? horrid timae'h* : by murder—but to my narrative. Night fer night, day after day, I studied means to put my dreadful oath in execution for nothing but blood could satisfy tnv deep deadly hatred. The thought struck me thet I must also play the hypocrite. I cal b I often upon Robinson, and always met him with an open hand. A smile upon my face hid the hatred that was rankling in me. On one occasion I beheld a large hatchet, lying on the floor. At this time there was no one in the st >re but Robinson, he turned his back, upon which I took it and hid it under my coat. I kite v thatß. was in the habit ol visiting Ellen. In the evening when I took the hatchet, it was n«y inten tion to way-lay him and then take his life. O.i Satur lay night last I placed myself in a position, should he appear, to strike him to the earth, iFire my design was frustrated :he took another route, ft was then for the first time, that I thought of murdering Ellen, and fixing the deed upon Robinson. I resolved to proceed immediately toiler house and secret myself, and watch my opportunity to commit the deed—l went to house, and watched an opportunity to enter unobserved. I effected an entrance. My next object was to secret myself under the hod in her room. In doing this I was discov ered by one of the gills in the house. She ap parently frightened, asked me what I wanted. Oh, Nothing, I replied, I merely dropt in to chat with the girls. Ellen’s room door was standing open ; I asked her in, She replied, not there—this is my room pointing to the ad joining. W e then entered the room she had pointed out. I closed the door and locked it, and wc sat down.—l took my pocket book from my pocket, asked her if she wanted to make tw »or three hundred dollars. She replied yes. I guess I should. You may do so, ( replied. How was her reply. Easily, said I. You know Robinson 1 I do, was her answer. And so do I. lie has wrongedine, an 11 will have satisfaction ; he will be here to night to sleep with Ellen ; I Late him and I hate her too : I would like to see him on tiie gallows, and I have a plan to ef fect it. 1 then showed her the hatchet; she said nothing. Here said lis three hundred dollars; I wish to conceal myself beneath the bed, and when they are both asleep, murder her and fir upon him the odium of the deed. With some I :’le persuasion she consented took the three hundred dollars. She then assisted me to conceal myself under the bed by means of a large trank, ifcc. After waiting some time Robinson and Ellen catne to bed. Previous to their retiring they cal.,': 1 tor some wino, which was brought. Ro binson would not drink but Ellen did. When I was they were both asleep, I crawled from my aiding place and struck my unhappy •'icfmi on the h- rl, which instantly deprived her . ,*. 1 ,l ‘ H " rai,,:<l tl,e hatchet over the head 01 Robinson, hut he did not stir, and sowas safe. I then set fire to the bed clothex, so that should he awake and give tliealarrn, he would be taken on the spirt, and suspicion rest on him. I did intend to take the hatchet, cov< I with blood and leave it secretly at his house in Dey street, kiiowim; that it would be recognised as belong ing to Sir. Hoxie. I now leave the country. Ido so, also, be caut< 1 wish to make some atonement tor the bloody deed, and liberate the much wron-'id Ro’n >u.i—though his situation is far preferaule to mine—h-: has a clear conscience, while I firel all the horrors of remorse. I humbly beg he may pardon me, the injury I have done him, and may god forgive me for taking away p the life 1 cannot give. 1 give vou this cot recti J statement, us 1 was personally acquainted with I you at the time when you was connected with!* the Courier and Enqr. 1 would once more say 1 that Robinson is innocent. I shall leave this ci- 1 ly in a few moments after this is finished which j I shall leave with a friend to give you when he thinks 1 am safe from pursuit. Robbery and Murder by the Choctaws.— Me learn from a gentleman wild arrived in Tuscalioma on Wednesday from the Chicka saw Purchase, that a parly from 20ti>30 Choc taw Indians bad, on the Sunday previous, en tered a store at that place, and after demanding and being refused knives and other articles gratis, proceeded to beat the store keeper in a barbarous manner. After bruizing him until j they were tired, widi sticks, they were dragging I uim to (no woods, 110 doubt to murder him, as ' they threatened, repeatedly ; I ut on his offering I to pay 'hem fifty dollars, t<> sr. re his life, they 1 released him. He was however so badly hurt us Ito he unable to get to his store, and sank to to the ground powerless and exhausted, in which situation he was shortly after found by some of his friends. Ho states there was ! another w hite person in the store w hen the In -1 dians commenced beating him, who thereupon 1 seized a musket and shot one of them, and i then tied, and was pursued 0:1 the instant by a [ part of the savages, who no doubt murdered him, as he has not been seen since. The Choctaws robbed the store of almost every article it contained, blankets, cutlery, &c. [ Tuscahomian. ■ - y.
