LITERATURE OF TEE" DEAD WALL." Fon "Truth," in the old Latin saw of " Truth' is mighty. .and will prevail," many a word has been inserted ; but never one that was more appropriate than " Printer's ink." And as 1 . look on your advertising . diagram„ that riihs"up and clown from "one square, one week, fifty cents," to the ' one column, one leer, fifty-dollars.,"-it tweurs to me to write concerning the Inky Embellishments of the Dead Walls and hoard ferces—of this goodly Gotham. Nobody succeeds that does not in some way or another advertise. end in *plata.- so given to gadding - about as this, it long ago suggested itself as a most proper expedient. to fill every avairable space with all thinner of .etlap-trappery, that, by some arrangement of colors, some astounding letters, or, per chancd-some startlin g ; picture, the eye of some wayfarer might be attracted to the merits of a fly-trap, a theatrical wonder, or " Ledger Biory." -No bit of brick wall, no board fence about this city and its surround ings, that does not bear the words, " Post no hills," (to saj , nothing of hundreds that do.) but isliterally filled with a- wearying variety of devices. 'Walk up Broadway at sunset, and you will see here and there an old-fash• Toned, tijictatory brick shop, that the- advanc ing wave of six-story marble and iron stores Will soon overwhelm ; it ,will. be occupied, and is peculiar Wares 'will be displayed in the windows._ Walk down in the morning. and a death warrant is displayed on the old front, in the shape of a ecore- of different placards, that in some mysterious way have growtt out like fungus over all the irrint ur to'the very eaves. This is a 'surer sign of swift decay than the hectic flush ofd con sumptive's cheek. Then walking :by again At night, the brick that made the well stand like a truncated tower or a half barricade, blocking most inconveniently this narrow Broadway, and this though it is only for a day, has Its lapestiy, of bills. Some of these posters are evidently placed_ in their position by human bands; And, indeed, there are sev eral companies and an army of men who art'. professional "bill-stickers." For,walking in any part of the city even into the " weeismat hours o' the mornin'," you will hear hurried -steps, and lenge brushes dabbling hi pails of paste and slapped against; the hoards or bricks, and meet men and boys tanning .in eager haste with their brushes,, , pails,- and loads of i billa; but how some. of them are placed is yet a matter to be investigated, for it would Appear that no combination of g'o'es and ladders short. of an actual. scaffolding could reach some points that every morning flame anew with their gaudy hanners.—. Whether these are not pat in their places by " thingwirith wings," is yet to bediscovered.

Yor in stance, all about the city was posted, not long :since, in large lefters, the word "Mara villa.'; All the world was agog as to its meaning.. Some said a new Prima Donna was coming from Italy ; - some looked for a novel ; ',gotrie for shoe blocking ; some for a Ledger story ; and, at the proper time," Mar. gorilla" is announced as the name of a new hair lo(joa so powerful that " kair washed in it cannot be pulled out, and a crop can be made to grow on the palm of the hand; so that in applications of it. gloves must be used, and often kid gloves sprout with a new crop of rat's hair, &e., &c." Again, over the townare the words, " Her on,' or " Miranda," or "Jenkins." or what ever the case may he.. 'After sufficient euri: o4ity is 'excited, we learn that Matilda Heron is..to act at -Burton's; that Mr. Miranda is to sing a song in Rob Roy ; and that the Hon. Jenkins will show the propriety of carrying pure bear's grease to the Fejee islanders.— At this moment the mind of the .inquiring portion of this community is on the qui vier to learn what can be-the meaning of "Cam bric Tea," "Cambric Tea." if it is anything of importancel will make the fact known when the information' turns up, At least, till then, I am Yours, Thomas Burnside—James Petriken4ames T.

James Petriken, was one of the counsel, assisted by James T. hale, Esq: Hale was speaking, and having made a strong point, which the Conrt challenged, he said that he could sustain it by citation of eases . from the books, but he had left them at his office, elose hv. • "'Why - did you not bring your books here ?' asked the Judge. " Because I considered the point no plain .ns not to need the support of other cases ; but I will stet over and get the books.' " As Mr. Male left the house the. Judge, in, 4l pet, said, 'That man reminds ine of carpenter who came to work for me, and left all his tools tit home. The Court has forgot ten more law than that young man knows.' "'That,' said Mr. Petriken, is just what we complain of—that your Honor has forgot ten too much.' - And so it proved ; for the' books came with Mr. Hale, and they revealed the fact that the memory of the Court had been ton short on thift.point, if on no othr."

AT Lodi, in Lombardy, on the 10th May, 1790, Napoleon gained a decisive victory ov er the Austrians, the mos* desperate contest having been at ti wooden bridge over the Adds. At Arcole, a little village of Northern Ita ly, on. the 17th November, 1790, Napoleon gained a great victory over the Austrians, but with terrible slaughter on both sides, the 'Austrians having 18:000•and the French 15,- 000 killed and wounded. -.On the banks of the Trobbis river, in ha. miles from Genoa, the French army. under Marshal Mnedtmald, on the 19th of June. 1700. fought en allied Austrian and hessian army, Ina battle. which lasted three days, and in which the . French lost 12,000 men, and the allies an equal number. It was in this vicinity that, 218 years before Christ, Hannibal fought a great battle and defeated the Romans. 'ln the plain of Miring°. at the foot of the Appenines, 14 miles from the strong Sardin ian fortifications at Aleesandrin, in 1799, the French, under Marshal Jnubert, were defeat ed by the combined Austrians and Russians, under Suwarrow. Each army had upwards of 7000 men killed and wounded, and sever al thousand prisoners. At Engen, iti Baden. the Freneh defeated an Austrian army on the 3d of May, 1800, the loss in killed and wounded on each side being set down at 7900 men: ' At nohenlinden. a village in Upper Rave. ria, on the 3d December,lB9o, a great' bat{ tle was fought between Ur Trench and varianc under Moreau; and the Austrians, under the.

SARDINIA' is bounded on the north by Bwit. zerlend, on the estst by Lombardy (now pan of the Austrian Empire) and Parma, on the south by the Mediterranean, and on the west by France. Its extreme length is two blind rid and linty-nine miles, and its breadth about two hundred miles. Iti contains an area of nineteen thousand two hOndrtd and thirty-seven square miles—less than half that of thelhate of Pennsylvania. The continent al portion, which alone is represented in the above demarcation,'is traversed in various directions by ramifications of the Alps- and Apennines.. The Alps have their highest summits in Mont Blanc, Monte Rosa, .and Mont Cerbin, respectively 15.712; 15,208, and 14.837 feet in height. Between these two chains lie•extensive and fertile plains.— The country is watered by the Rhone, Na,, Myra, &c.. which (low to the Mediterranean, and by the Po and its ntfluents,,which empty into the Adriatic. Not less than' three-fourths of the whole surface belong to the basin of the Po. The island of Sardinia, which forms a part of the Sardinian kingdom; lies in the Iftli terranettn, south of Corsica, from Which it is separated by the Strait of Bonifacio. Its area is nine thousand two hundred and thirty. five square miles.- The surface is geneially , mountainous, and Monte Schinschiu, near its centre, attains the height of 0,0'22 feet.— On the west are extensive plains; that of Budduso is 300 feet above the sea. The Tersi, the largest river fn the island, rises in -this plain and flews westl the other rivers, the Selema, Flumendosa, and Mannu, are all small. The coasts are much indented, and form excellent harbors. Thepopulation of Continental Sardinia, in 1852, was 4,537,580; ihat of the island of Sardinia, 552,665; making a total of 5,090,- 245 inhabitants. Tne plains - of the Po, ivhere irrigation . Is extensively practiced, are the true granary of the•tountry. In the south and In the is land the orange, the vine, and the mulberry, and above all the olive, are the most valuable products. Cattle, shqep, and goats are rear ed extensively in the mountains: Iron and lead are the principal Minerals worked, and salt is obtained from both mines and springs. Manufactures occupy a very unimportant place, compared withligriculture.' Sardinia is n hereditary monarchy, in which the powers of the sovereign are limited by Constitutional safeguards. The legislature, consisting of two chambers', meets annually. The regular army numbers 47,718 men, ,but on a war footing can be more than- doub led. Tile established religion is the Roman Catholic. 'Other religions - are tolerated.— Common district ,schools are established throughout the kingdom. The nucleus of the Sardinian monarchy was the small Alpine country of Savoy, which Was governed by its awn Counts from 1010. in 1050 extensive districts in Piedmont were acquired ; and in 1399 Nice, and in 1418 the whole of .Piedmont; were added. These countries were erected into a kingdom- - at the peace of Utrecht. in 1713. Sicily was then added, but in 1719 that island was changed for the island of Sardinia. From .1798 to 1814, the country formed a part of the French empire, but it was restored in 1814, and augmented by the addition of Genoa and the island of Caprsja. Stout drover, on his way to the capital with his twenty or thirty beeves, passed by , a farmer's house, in the door of which happened to stand a remarkably box- ' om and blooming woman, the farmer's wife. Inflamed with a sudden passion of admire lion, the dusty-booted traveler approached the'motionless beauty, and, not knowing how else to enterinto conversation, asked. for a glass of water. It was willingly brought to him-; but in returning the glass, he sudden ly threw his arms around her, pressed her close to his heart and gave her the most so norous of unmistakable kisirs. With fury appeased, the rough customer once more overtook the cattle. The farmer was in the field not far off, and to call him and make an, enraged report of the proceeding was thc work of ea fee min utes as possible. Instantly unhitching' his •plough horse,-the injured husband mounted and Me after the invader of his ejghts, over took and tempestuously accused hftn.

THE AFRICAN 811,9thitADR: • Address of a Southern U. S. Judge to the U. S. Court al New Orleans. Charge of Judge Campbell. GENTLEMEN Or TFE GRAND Juni , :—Yon have been convened by the order of the Court,..and their purpose is to confine their charge to you to an exposition of the acts of Congress relating to the suppresxion of the African slave trade, and to direct your in. quirks to the di s covery and presentment of such as , have ofended• against them in this district. • These acts describe three distinct classes of offenders, whose crimes are nearly related, end can be more easily understood by con. .sidering,them together. The first class is composed of the immedi ate agents and instruments who are employed in carrying on the trade. It is composed of the crew or ship's company of an American vessel engaged in thi, trade, or eitizens,of the United States on tigers, of a foreign vessel. Their crime con s ists - Raiding -for such a vessel, seizing or decoying on a foreign shore, a person of African blond, who is not a slave in any or the States, and forcibly bringing him away, or in confining or detaining him' at sea, or landing - him elsewhere with a view to sell or to complete a sale of him as ikslave. This crime of abducting native Africans for the perm,. of converting them Into* siihiexts of trade is denominated, in the act of Con. gress,OfMay, 1820,,, piracy, and th e o ffender, on conviction, must seller death. The crime of, piracy by the general law, is a robbery at sea, or a , robbery on land corn mitted'bY persons landing to commit it from a seagoing vessel. •It has been treated os a crime str greatest enormity. The pirate is a publip;tnemy.of all nations, and is subject to arrest, trial, and punisbment by the an. thorities of any: - The acts of Congress of 1797 and 181 8, recognized -the makes of Afrlea ' within the pale of international law, and entitled to protection from war and violence on the part of citizens of 'the United States, in so; Esr that their persons could. not -be made 4he subjects of any lawful_eommerce, 'Mosinee trade by these acts W>3B fully and finally,epp pressed. The first continental Cengret4, in lilt ex• 'pressed their determination to abandon-it.— Th'e Congress of 177 G, composed entirely of delegates from States in which slavery was - legal. [in a series of resolutions that plainly foreshadowed the ; declaration of independ ence that was made, three months afterwardL resnl4l, "That no more slaves be impOrteti' withivi any of the" Colonies." • The power to. abolish the trade within the States then ex- Istingl was not delegated to Congress, so as to be:exercised before the year 1808, but re mained with the States respectively. But the powers of Congress extended over the slaveltrade carried on by American vessels -or by Americas citizens in all, places, except the States then existing. It was exercised in 1794 and in 1800, •in reference to-the trade atoonglbreign nations. In 1798 . . - Congress organized the Mississippi Territory, and exercised the power in that Territory, claiming it to belong to the United StateS Shortly'after the acquisition of Louis• iana, the (fade was abolished in that Territory. In 18041, the President (Mr. JeffersOn) ' in. vitediCongress tb empigy the powers that were ;to arise in 1808, for the full and final abolition of the trade. Cohgress cordially cooperated, and, with a rare Unanimity, in-obedience to the religious, moral, and political sentiments of the, time, the eCt of-1807 was passed to take effeet on theist day of the yeariBoB. , I do not hesitate to believe that tbe genii. teentl that then prevailed, now prevails.— Within a few years past upon the first pro. posall to reopen this trade, the House of Representatives of Congress with like unam imity, determined that no propose; of the kind would meet with the concurrence of that body) - - • The - acts of Conrross having placed the natives of Africa, who were not within the United States, under the protection -cif the international law, in so far that they could not • from that time become the' , subject of a lawful cethmetce by the citizens of the Unit ed States, and their - seizure wit's a violation of the international obligation the United States had voluntarily assumed towards; these pet,. ple, the course of their future legislation was plainly indicated. .. _ The landing of _a ship's company of one nation on the shore of another nation; with whom their sovereign had relations of amity and commercial intereoursv;.te seize its peace ful inhabitants to carry then* oft to be sold into s every for, the private , lucre of those conee ned, is plainly piratical; and Coneress, in the act of May, 1820, have . only termed piretidsl.cets, piracy - .

Besides the proviions of the law , that properly fall under 'the—cognizance 'of the Grand Jury, there are remedies, which are i i somewhat of a civil nature, that relate to the acts last considered, and which it is proper to notice, to hive tt full d,oficeptioui of the scope and object. . Whenever information is lodged with the District Attorney that 4fricans have been imported contrary, to, avr, and that they are held within his district, it is made his. day to file an information in the Circuit or Dis trict Court, to ascertain the validitir of such holding.

He stands in the presence of his acquaintance es and his countrymen es en t accessory after the fact, to acts of, piracy, and in close rela tion to dband who have been concerned in planning a remote an ti distant voyage to` seize the persons of men whom the laws• of his country protect, and have selected the pi ratieal ship's company to perform the act, and have received from, them-the victims of the adventure, and smuggled them_ into the cot)'ntry. - _ , • Every act of masterdom or ownership, on . their part, is done in violation of the la wvof his country, and my being him the puni4vo justice of its tribunals.

What hope is there that an offend= - nr in this predicament can succesefullymaiti ; main tain his ill - gotten spoilagai nst the power of the laws and the vigils ce of those - upon Whom' vigilance is impo as a public duty. The nature_ of Ibis hope s ms to be that a' • public sentiment so dissolute or depraved in favor of slave:bolding oa 4 been; or may be, created, or that the publiii mind - can be so debauched in reference to the Federal -Union and-Povernnient, that a firm, steady, and ex act administration of the laws Of _the United States can be rendered inlpossibie, and thus that the laws in regard to the slave trade will 'be nullified. -The success anticipated is ex pected to be derived from the facility and* weakness of grand and petit juries.
