So fnr, \he Democrats, have gained Tour

The Richmond Enquirer, in "alluding to tho recent
democratic triumph' in that state, has the following !
“Tho victory wo have won is more brilliant and do

steals, the hopes of Federalism in* Virginia. - It is, in

- A maa named Halsey Coon, went to tho house-of -
one of his neighbors,- and’informed the family that his
wife either dead or dying from a dreadful accident,
and begged them to accompany .him back to his home,
which they did. Upon their arrival they found thp
\voman still living bat burned in a. most J shocking
moaner. * A physician was immediately sent for, and
when ho eaw ber situation ho pronounced it impossi
ble for her to live more than a few hours. Previously
to this, she hod refused to give any satisfactory account .
of tho condition she was in; but now, finding she
could not live, she confessed it was tho work of' hcr
Tiusband—that lib had beaten her was “nearly'
lied her toa chair and^ thrown a
shovel full of burning coals upon her body. The
wretched woman died in about two hours after she
was first found by the neighbors/, A jury of inquest
was called,' which pronounced a_ycrdict of death by
the hands of her,husband—whereupon ho was imme
diately arrested. - •

Dear Sir:

Very Respectfully,
GOVERNOR DORR AND HIS VISIT
TO WASHINGTON.
'.Those-.who. wxuld, create-the impression
thatrGoy.-.Durr has backed out from the peo
ple,' will- please'read the following resolve,
passed [at ||ie grea t meeting.. at [Providence,
on Friday evening:— [ A ;
, Resolved;, .That-Thqhias -Wi.-Dorr, .the
Governor of bur .grate, be requested person-
Jfetyjxnjneht
the cause of the people of Rhode Island,
‘and to.xonvey our protest against the entr
pluyment of the National 1 F,taxes in the set
tlement of a question involving the right of
the People tii establish or change their form
of Government."
The New' Yurk Era of Monday snyst- “In
pttrsqauce of this request, Gov, Dorr passed
through this city yesterday,-oh his way-lo-
Washington; and after he.ltas an interview
■with' the President’!- if the latter farms or
persists it; a determination to lend the aid
of his ofßcial puw.er- ta.snbvert the sOverign

diieitt vvhich-hislory through all lurte will re
cord against him. And if he shuulilj.be im
peached, ns he would riclily deserve tq.be,
cannot claim that his course was taken in
ignorance, or from other than adespotic love
of power, and a dastardly design th stifle the
flame of liberty in inic of the weakest of the
confederated States.
It may be advisable to advert to some of
the efforts which are strenuously making to
injure here the'moral strength of the Ped
ple’s.cause in Uhode Island. Its enemies
are insiduoitsly representing that the. autho
rity of the.old system has been acknowledg
ed because some two' W-three members of
the Constitutional Legislature have giv'en
bail, when arrested on treason. It is a suf-
ficient answer to this to state that the form*
judicial*system of the State is.adopted by
the People’s;Cunstilittion, and those mem
bers were therefore bound by their oaths lo
support that instrument, to. respect the S
upreme Quurt,. which it recognizes. Again
it is asserted that every thing has bfcen sur
rendered, because' GbV. Durr has left the
State and proceeded to Washington. ‘Let
those who please comfort .themselves with
St delusion, fpe know lb.£ plan,and Ccoo\
. lie-will quaver
in*ton, \vhich will be inafow-days.he will
bring decisive intelligence' relative tp the
President’s intentions. Whatever.theyfmay
be, the operations of the government under

chlly cai'ried on,and the accounts with, thp
‘‘Royalists,” settled in any manner they
may .select. .If the-Presidcnt declines furth
er interference, »ll will he well; the.p6op]e
of Rhode Island are perfectly able lo "lake
care of their_dwn lories.”. But, if otherwise;
and llicy arc threatened with an armed force
from abroad,-they appeal to their—brethern
tliruughout the country to check such iped
lihg. They ask them to senil iTienTeiiouglr
.to keep off the . United States soldiery, and
they will do every thins else themselves.-*-
