TRAGEDV- ON BOARD Tilt Silo
lawm.Thomas Forbes, one oldie
, w of the ship Farwell of Boston, on
•r last voyage from Philadelphia, is
won trial in the United States Dis
t
Conit, before his Honor Judge
adall, for the, crime of revolt. The
t oner, : who is almost' a youth, is a
„i r e of Scotland, and - appears to be
:!lout friends in, this country. He
ho wever, ably defended by William
: s m ith, Esq., alsisted by a young
giber ot:the bar, Mr. Cardoza. - The
: red history of the case is as follows :
Farwell, bound to Boston, left this
Gaon the morning of the 25th of De
lher, last, in company with the pack
' fhip Monongahela, .for Liverpool,.
in tow of the City Ice • Boat.—
' •.e crew on coming aboard were near
: 2 11 in liquor, but went to duty, and
Agee or four hours everything pro
4oetl pretty quietly. They then be
-16 more intoxicated, and began to
l ire in a noisy, disorderly and tor
e!tt manner. It was evident they
liquor in their chests, but Captain
,Twett wishing to have as little trouble
,Zipssible, on consulting with his offt
,
determined to wait until 2 o'clock
. ; „'llie 'afternoon in the hope .that the
of the men by that time would
`•• ? •aproved.l About 1 o'clock, one of
excited by rum to craziness, jump
mto the river, and was draWn in
e r the tairrail: At this moment thb
]ors were boisterous and uproarious
(a high degree.
Capt. Farwell now found it absolute
;
necessary to deprive them of the li
:or, and ordered them to unlock their
.ests and give it .up. Some of them
:eyed, but otheri refused ; when the
:ate was ordered to break opt the
vests of those who disobeyed, and the
juor was 'passed out of the forecastle
taken aft into the cabin. .The sai
t's disputed the right of the officers to
the liquor from them, and were
atly -incensed at having their chests
[lced. They declared that the articles,
their shipment were broken, and that
. e r would not go on the voyage:—
hey were told that the liquor would
I be thrown overboard, as Was usual,
.1 would be kept in the cabin, and
, 3il out to them on the passage. This
:Ll,no greet in allaying the excitement,
-.(I Captain - Farwell desiring to check.
insubordination peaceably, came
sward and reasoned with them, telling
,mt thatbe wished a quiet ship, yet,
':he same time resolutely informed
ern that if they were for fight he was
' :epaied 'for them.. Pacific . measures
l!ed, and the Captain saw the neces
'.,fy of assertinghis authority to restore
~:..seipline. The crew Were at once or
'.':ired to ... turn to." 'Pile order was
i'
:.1.1.5:ell by the mate, and a fewonly
P:eved. The disobedients were irnme
!'if.nely- ordered aft with the view of
) , :ertaining who the offenders were
,- d of taking their names, in order to
uve them tried for mutiny. Some ten
1
!!svel re marched forward, when Cap
u F:
again appealed to them,..and
;I,3.zinJed 'them of the consequences of
t--, disobedience . The 'mutineers
l';' - .i.illed . at him, and with bad lauguage
much bravado, set the authority of
Oiizself and officer's at defiance. The
•g:t6iiline of the vessel being gone, and
` 1 .;! mutineers being in.,a fair way of
harping the command, the Captain or.
k: - qd, the. ringleader, a man' named
r.:ocripson, to be put in irons, and
. aim by the shoulders, was drag
im to the capstan for that pur
lieu the first officer, Mr. Engles,

hours after.
Farwell discoveling that his

n. who did it—that he had killed

Colt's revolvers, and his first
was to shoot the murderer, and
'elled the weapon at him. He
fire at that moment, and turning
some direction concerning the
!d mate, he perceived Forbes
to pull his: knife out of his belt.
, xt instant, seeing the murderer
drawn instrument in his hand
lung him in - a threatening atti
drew his pistol arid shot him.
man fell he threw his knife at
Farwell. The ball took efre l et
Fide, producing only a flesh
wound. The captain put him in irons
while he lay upon the deck, and askin g I
him if he had murdered an innocent
man, and why he had done it, he 'an
swered boastingly that he was not the
first one he had served so. After
,the
tragical affray the crew returned to duty,
and discipline was perfectly restored.
On the arrival of the Farwell at Boston,
six of them—all that the captain could
identify—were arrested, and are in pri
son there awaiting their trial for mutiny.
The murder of the mate took place on
the Delaware river, one' mile below
Chester, and Forbes will be tried far
the homicide at the Oyer and Terminer
of Delaware county.
The Vice President's Address to tire Senate,
SENATORS.--In directing the Vice
President to preside at the deliberations
of thii body. the' constitution of our
country assigns to him a. sphere and a
duty alike eminent and grateful. NV tilt
out any of the cares of real power, with
none of the responsibilities of legisla
tion, except in rare conjunctures, he is
associated with the dignified delegates
of republican sovereignties : he is pos
ted by the entire American people in
your confederated -council, partly, it
would seem, as an organ of 'Freedom's
fundamental
.. principles of Order, and
partly, perhaps, as a mere symbol of
that more popular and more perfect
union . " on which depend the blessings
of our Peace, Independence and Liber
ty. His mission, tranquil and unim
posing, is yet noble in its origin and
objects, and happy, as well as proud, in
its relations to you.
No one, gentlemen, can appreciate
more highly or recognize more deferen
tially, than does the incumbent of this
chair, the powers, privileges and rules
or forms of the Senate of the United
States. To maintain these unimpaired
and unrelaxed, he feels to be an offi
cial duty, second in impressive obliga
tioni only to his Constitutional allegi
mice. To their exercise the Republic
owes incalculable good ; and through
them has been gradually achieved a
wide spread fame for wisdom, justice,
moderation and efficiency, unsurpassed
by any assembly of stateSmenin former
or present times.
A calm and well adjusted system of
action in this chamber, carefully devis
ed and steatlijx pursued by those who
have precedetlusen it, has indeed large
ly contributed tote undoubted success
of our great political experiment. In
stability, baste, procrastination, dis
courtesy, and indecision, habitually dis
countenanced and banished, leave, in
undisturbed, supremacy here, the pow
ers of enlightened reason, and the vigor
of practical patriotism. Our country
reaps thence solid and substantial ad-
Vantages in her policy, institutions,pros-,
.pects,' and- renown.
' The citizen whom it has pleased a
people to elevate by their suffrages,
from the pursuit otprivate and domes
tic life, may best evince his grateful
sense of the honor thus conferred, by
devoting his faculties, moral and intel
lectu'al, resolutely to their service.—
This•l shall do ; yet- with a diffidence
unavoidable to one conscious that al
most every step in his appointed path
is to him new and untried, and sensible
how dangerous a contrast must occur in
the transfer of powers from practiced to
unpracticed hands.
In - . observing, however,, upon this
floor,' a nutulcrer of those experienced
and skilful statesmen on ~
,whom the na
tion justly looks with pride and reliance,
I am assured that there can be but little
danger of public disadvantage from in
advertencies.or mistakes, which their
counsel may readily avert or rectify.
And thus, gentlemen, _while aiming
frankly and impartially to exercise the
functions of an unaccustomed station in
the spirit of the constitution, for the en
larged and lasting purposes of a revered
country, and with sincere good will
towards all, 1 may cherish the encour- ,
aging hope of being able, with the as
sent of an indulgent Providence, atonc i
to perform my duty, and to attract your
confidence.
APOPLEXY.—This dreadful complaint
is generally preceded by pain in dip
"heitl, giddiness, (especially in turning
suddenly around,) dimness of sight,
stupor, toss of meoory, and other un
pluasant.symptoms, which indicate a
loaded and corrupt state of the blood.
Wright's Indian Vegetable Pills are
a direct purifier of the blood, and are,
therefore, a certain preventative of
Apoplexy, because they expel from the
body those stagnant and corrupt humors
which are the cause of every malady
incident to man. Said Pills. also uid
and improve digestion, as well as purify
the blood and therefore not only drive
disease of every name from the body,
but are one of the best, if hot the very
best, medicines in the. world, for the.
cure of colic, dysentery, cholera mor
bus, and other diseases Of the intes
tines.'

By this dispensation of Providence a hus
band has been bereft of.a devoted companion, a
large circle of friends, of an affectionate rael
tive, and society. of a vvorthy and valued mem.
ber. And by few will her departure be deplo
red more than by the poor, for charity, the
the crowning excellence of the Christian's life,
shone out beautifully in the way which she
pursued. Modest and unassuming, her preten
tions were but kw, yet the beholder could not
but observe that the spirit of the Savior imbued
her heart—marked the thoughts of mind, and
directed thedeeds of her hands; so that by her
whole conduct, from the hour of youth to that
in which she was called from earth, she exhibi
ted the great truth that " pure religion and on- I
defiled before God and the Father, is this, to
visit the fatherless and widows in their afflic
tions," and to keep the heart unspotted by the
vices of the world. But she is gone—the dust
to the earth as it was, the spirit to him who
gave it, to be clothed upon with immortality
and bloom in the loveliness of imperishable
youth, whife eternity itself, shall endure. She
died as she had lived, in the firm and-unwave
ring faith of a world's salvation—the final re
demption of the whole humansfamily from sin,
and death, and the grave, and her memory will
long be cherished by those who were aware of
her moral worth. [Com.
