On Saturday last Thomas Cooper, who waq indifted for a liljel againfl the'Prefident of the United Sta'es, was tried in this court and found gnilty. The indi&ment was founded on a publi cation signed by Mr. Cooper, which appear ed in Hand Bills, printed in Northumber land county, in this state.—The libellous paflages mentioned, were in effe&— i ft. That the President did not possess fufficient capacity to fulfill the duties of his office. id. That he had created a permanent navy. 3d. That a Jtanding army had been cre ated under his immediate aufuices—and 4th. That he had interfered in the ju diciary of the United States, and caused Jonathan Robbint to be delivered over, for execution, to an unrelenting military tri bunal. I Mr. Rawle opened the cafe by animad verting on the above felefted passages, and called Mr. Buyers, a jutlice of the peace of the county, to prove Mr. Cooper the aa thor—who said, that Mr. C. had called at his house with the paper—said thai w bit name, (pointing to it i > the paper) and that he ifas the author of the piece. The indictment having been founded on the law commonly cali«d the frdition ait, nothing now remained but for Mr. Cooper to give the truth in evidence. Having fail ed in his attempt to procure official docu ments of the President's anfwera to the nu merous addreffei from the citizens of the United States, Mr. Cooper proceeded to read from a book containing them, certain paltages m fubftant/ation of the truth of the charges alledge.l against him—but this was declared by the court not to be lega! evidence. Mr. C. however, read numsroua paflages, and continued his defence until exhauiled and unable to proceed. The in dulgence of thecourt here was manifefted by Jud -e Chafe, who declared he would pa tiently wait until he was able to resume bis defence. HaVin'g failed in every attempt to procure evidence on w ich to ground a defence, Mr. C- concluded, and Mr. Rawle addres sed the jury in reply. Judge Chafe then furrmed the evidence, and the jury in a few minutes retU'ned their verdift GUILTY. We understand that the Court hare ap pointed next Wedncfdly to hear any thing Mr. Cooper may have to offer in extenu ation ; af.er which the Court will pafsjudg- meiit.

The re fultof the buiinefs was that he had captured the to' gun privateer and had driven the ■('milter one on (hore and destroyed her ; we are allb informed, thst in that heroic aili'in captain Hillar fi»d fallen a vi£Um. Should this rircumlbtnce be true, as we are sorry to fear it the cafe, we have to lament the death of a brave and very intelligent •(Seer, and •whose abilities merited a better fate.
