Burning of 'torsos.
It has often been remarked that a horse cannot
be driven from a building when on fire ; but many
have considered it an unauthmticated statement.—
An incident of which the writer was an eye-wit
mess, may be interesting to come of our readers.
It was a cold night, in November 1840, while we
were sojourning in the State of New York, that the
\cry of fire alarmed the citizens of the quiet town in
which we were then staying. We coon discovered
that the stable attached to the hotel was in flames,
:and our first effort was directed to the safety of the
horses which it contained. We throw wide open
all the doors, and unloosed the halters ; but no soon
er was this done, than some of them rushed to the
lre, inhaled the burning element, and fell down and
•dial instantly. After considerable exertion, we
succeeded in getting six others out ; but five imme
diately turned, and with a single leap, bounded into
the midst of the fire. The other ran, with much
speed, a distance of about twenty rods, from the
building, and then wheeled about, mails his way
back to the fire, in spite of our efforts to stop him,
and shared the fate of the rest of his companions.—
This etatement, although it proves nothing new,
may be relied upon. It was a melancholy spectacle
'to behold on the next morning the half burned
bones of eighteen noble steeds, fill simmering
among the smoking embers.—Forum.
Matters in Wisconsin.
James 12. Vineyard, who shot C. P. Arndt in the
Legislative Hall of Wisconsin, both of them being
members of the Legislative Council, was tried at
Monroe in that Territory, last month, and acquitted,
though the evidence was clear enough against hint.
The indictment, however, was only for matudaugh
ler, and on that ground the jury pronounced him
not guilty. The scenes on the trial, as described by
a correspondent of the Now York Tribune, were
disgusting and barbarous. The defendant's lawyer,
a man named Strong, poured out for three hours a
tirade of ribaldry and profanity, keeping hot the
devil within him by copious draughts of whiskey
from a jug beside him, till he was so drunk he could
speak no longer. The jary, according to this letter
writer's aceeunt. was composed cf vt:ry ditto of
a society which is itself the dregs of the population
of the neighboring States. According to the same
authority, there were, however, some respectable
men engaged in this singular trial. Col. Field, the
Secretary of the Territory, who closed the defence,
spoke ably and temperately, as did Mr. Collins for
the prosecution. The charge of the judge was also
commended.
It is not wonderful that strangers hear such a
report about this country, when within its borders,
under the influences of its institutions, such as this
can be. It is rather to be regretted that through
this great gossiping press from which we both enjoy
and suffer so much, these affairs find as little chance
of being kept secret as Midas' whisper. In any
other part of tho world wiekednesS fiotd in stealth,
but here the whole Union, by means of these mul.
titudinous newspapers, is ono great whispering gal
lery, reverberating with the noise of every occur'
rence, trivial or important, good, bad or indifferent.
The very case of this Vineyard, if we remember
right, was prominently cited in Mr. Dickens' bill of
indictment against this country.

In the course of a few Weeks the under

the MIRROR, in the octavo form, ou an
entirely novel and original plan, with a
steel engraving in every number, and ai
the reduced price of three dollars per an•

The NEW MIRROR will appear with

on fine paper, and each number will con
tain a beautiful original Engraving on
steel, designed and etched by Chapman
illustrating the letter press which it ac
companies and which it will invest.--
Besides the emeributions of all our exten
sive cords of correspondents, which ems
braces most of the talent of this country,
we have made arrangements for fresh and
early translations from some of the best
writers of France, and for proof sheets
from several of the popular authors of
England. With such materials and with
such able fellow-laborers ,in the literary
vineyard, we hope to present to the A•
merican reader a weakly journal of much
value and unusual eicellence. The par
ade ut mere names will be sedulously
avoided. Thenlirror will be remarkable,
we hope, rather fur good articles without
names, than for poor articles With
distin
guished names. It will embrace in its
scope every department of elegant liter
' ature, comprising tales of romance, sketch
es of socity and manners, sentiment and
and every day life, piquant essays, do
mestic and foreign correspondence, litera
ry intelligence, wit, humor, fashion, and
gossip, poetry, the fine arts, and literary,
musical and dramatic criticisms. Its
ae
views of new works will be careful, dis
criminating and impartial. It will aim to
foster a literature suited to the estate
and desires of the age and country. Its
tendency will be cheerful and enlivening,
as well as improving. It will seek to
gratify every refined taste, but never to
offend the most fastideoos, and it wilt
ever feel its duty to be to turn the sunny
sid(of things to human eyes.
The work will be published every Sat
urday, in numbers of sixteen large octavo
super-royal pages, with double columns,
and enclosed in a neat orrannertl:: cover.
It will form, at the end of the year, two
superb volumes, each of four hundred
anti sixteen pages, filled with the gems of
literature and the tine arts.
The very !Ow price at which it will be
issued renders it the cheapest periodical
in this or any Other country, considering
the cost or its fifty two. engravings, and
the intrinsic value of its literary contents.
Those desirous of receiving periodically
front the commencement, will have it
punctually sent to their address upon
their forwarding to the udersigned, ut No.
