It matters not a straw to us who the federal par
tyiplace in nomination for Governor. We would
much rather see them bring forward the ir strong

sure of giving them a Waterloo defeat, and it
would be no honor to whip one of their common

of a "fixed fact."

Lieut. Mott returned to his dark and dreary pri
son, sad and depressed at the scene he had wit
nessed.
Rose Whitehead and Henry Mott were children
together, and lived at Hempstead. Rose was the
daughter of a Quaker, of a free and liberal spirit,
animated, decisive, and courageous. She loved
Henry from her youth. They had wondered to
gether in the woods, had fished in the trout ponds,
and were endeared to each other by domestic ties
and associations not easily severed. Rose heard of
the disaster of the battle, and that Henry had been
killed in that unfortunate affair, which report had
gained strength from the fact that nothing had
been heard from him.
She suspected, however, that he-was a prisoner,
and resolved to ascertain what had been his fate,
and, if a captive to set him free. Taking a bas
ket on her arm, she went to the orchard and filled
it with bergulo pears. a few pi ppins,and some ripe
and delicious peaches—took her purse with her,
and plainly attired, persuaded Cato, the old negro
slave, to drive her to the lines in a wagon—which
she reached an hour after sunrise, and passed un
molested and unquestioned through the line of sen
tinels. On reaching Bedford, she turned down the
road 'to the Wallabout having a vague surmise that
Henry might be a prisoner on board of the dreaded
Jersey prison ship. There were but a few strag
gling houses and huts on that spot where Wil
liamsburg
- now stands, and near one of them, on
the edge of the water, was a fisherman and • his
boat. He was calmly smoking as he sat on a rock,
looking at the prison ship at anchor.
"Host thou, frequently row off to the ship?"
"Yes, often, to carry a little provision to the
poor sufferers, now and then sotne fruit."
. ."Poor creatures! Their fate is a hard one."
"Hard enough. young woman, for men fighting
fbr home and liberty."
Rose felt that she was safe.
"I have some peaches in this basket; I will pay
t thee if thou wilt now row me round the ship and
back. again."
"Willingly: step in the boat."
Roie seated herself in the stern, and was rowed
round, the Whitby, the Hope and the Falmouth,
but saw no one whom she could recognize. She
pointed to the Jersey,- and the fisherman plyed
his oars, and was soon under the bows. The sen
tinel looked down and gazed with a longing eye at
the basketofi fruit. While the fisherman,' at the
request of Rine, threw him up a few pairs and
peaches,' which - he thahkfully received; several
prisoners leaned over the side, to catch a look at,
Abe boat and the female. Among. them was Hen- '
ry Mott, whose hour on deck had nearly been mt
bausted. He uttered a cry of joy at_ seeing Rose,

At six in the evening of the long summer nights,
his hour of relief again arrived. He lerined over
the side of the ship, and casting a wishful look at
the fisherman's hut, saw the boat put off vi-ithTiOse

STr.s . st Snrr Biun.—The paragraph in our pa
per of Saturday, in reference to the above boat,
appears to have been misunderstood by some of
obr friends. The "failure in her machinery," al
luded to by the Cincinnati Enquirer, did not arise
from imperfect work on the part of the Pittsburgh
machinists, but on account of Lieut. livNTEn's sub
merged Propeller not answering the ends for which
it was intended.
Exer.nrrions Woas.—The Harrisburgh Union
says: The Sta'te Bridge which was destroyed by
fire in the spring at Clark's Ferry, We understand,
will be passable by the next month. Too much
praise canot be awarded to the present Canal
Board, and their Superintendent, Mr. St.muel
Holmes, for the energy they have displayed in mg
ing the completion of this bridge.. It will be when
finished, fully equal in every particular to the one
destroyed.

told,vreve we expected to find tyro steamers in San •
dusky ytay, 'destined YortleVeland,but to our. great
disappointment, they were gone before the arrival
of the cars. Plenty of steam boats were bound for
Detroit and along the, western shore, but those for
Buffalo had started sooner than usual, anticipating
astorm. One good-friend advised us to take pas
sage for Cleveland via Dein" I—We looked at him
in amasement, and supposeathat he had been vis

plained the route to us thus:." You can,". said he.
go from Sandusky city to Detroit in seven hours,
and get there iti time for the Buffalo boat, which
will land, you in Cleveland before morning, which
will be a quicker route than by stage." It appear
ed to us too much like sailing ,around the world;
and we concluded not to go to Detroit, least we
should be tempted to continue our journey on to
the copper region, from thence to" Chicago, thence
across to the Illinois river, and around by the Mis
sissippi and up the-Qhio to , Pittsburgh! Night pas
sed away and morbing came, but it brought no,
boat with it. The say was full of schooners, some
laying at anchor, aial others with their white sails
spread to the breeze. After remaining nearly all
day, waiting in vain for a boat, we concluded to
hire a hack to take us to the village of '
Some twelve miles south-east of Sandusky city
on the edge of Erietounty, three miles from Nor
walk. The road is miserable for four or five miles
from Sandusky, and the country around a dreary
prairie, without any thing inviting about it. Far
ther on towards Milan, the country assumes quite
a different appearance. Here is seen some 'fine
smiling land, and most lovely farms, well cultivated
and improved. Milan is quite a business place
indeed, taking ita size into consideration. Of late
years it has become a great wheat market. The
Vermillion river, which runs past the place, and
empties into the lake, has been rendered navigable;
for schooners. A ship canal has been cut - for fouV I
miles from Milan, and they hare seven miles of
slack-water from the Canal to the ;Lake. As we
approached the town, a fine large schooner was
leaving, with its high masts among:the trees. The
sight was singularly beautiful, and reminded us of
the celebrated Argonautic expedition under Jason.
The boats are drawn by hinses down to the Lake.'
From the Ist of August to the let of November,
050,000 bushels of wheat have been shipped froin
Milan; and 1,500,000 staves have been purchased
during the last year, and shipped away. The re
ceipts of wheat per wagon have been as high as
20,000 bushels per day, and 22,000 weekly. The
ships are owned by citizens of the place, but a great
many more come up to get cargo. Milan is a
handsome village, built in the Yankee-style, and
contains a population of about SOO. It supports
one newspaper, the Tribune. We remained at
Milan some twelve' hours until the arrival of the
Great Western Stage, from DetrOit to Cleveland;
which passes through the place.: After leaving
Milan, a few hours' travel took wi into -
1.0 , r01n County.
In merely passing through this' county, we had
no opportunity of learning any thing in regard to I
I its history or prospects. Along the road sidi there
late some splendid farms, and most beautiful Man..
Isions. The farmers areienytally from the New
!England states. and tiring, with them rill the taste
land industry characteristic of the 4 • land of steddy
:habits." Our Pennsylvanialartnersi: are wealthy
and independent, but they do nat exhibit such fine
taste as the Yankees in improving and decorating
!
their farms.
ELYRIA, the seat of Justice of:Lorain county, is
quite a lively and delightinUvillage, containing. a
population of about 1.,200. The tow,' was laid
out by the Hon. Reuss - ELT, and took its name
from him. It has n handsome public square, and
a splendid brick CMirt-house,' which we were told
cost-$lO,OOO. A large Hotel, situated on the pub
lic square, is now nearly completed—it makes a
fine appearance, and is capable of accommodating
nearly as many persons as the St. Charles Hotel,
in this city. At Elyria, a company of abolition
ists, male and female, from Oberlin, took passage
in the stage, and as a matter' of course their
tongues were not allowed a moment's rest. We
have noticed it to be a fact, that the Anti• Slavery
advocates are always him , in promulgating their
peculiar sentiments, whenever they find an ear to
listen to their speeches and arguments. They de
serve credit for perseverance, stleast. From Ely
ria to Cleveland, the country Is very fine, and there
are numerous handsome farms and delightful man•
sions. To-morrow we shall attempt togfife the
reader a description of Cleveland, the Queen City

Tus NEW PLANET .—The distance of this body
from the sun is abo'ut 32,000 t millions of miles, and
about 3,600 millions from the earth. It's distance
from Uranus, whose `inotions it ' disturbs, is 150
millions. It's diameter is 50,000 piles: It would
make, in bulk, 250 such _worlds as ours. It is
greater, in bulk, than any body of the solar system
except Jupiter and Saturn; the forrner being 05,000
miles in diameter, and the latter !0,000. This is

have, therefore; to thank the RichTond Eng uir er
for redeeming from oblivion, the following passage,
on 'this subject, extracted from :Cr IC'S speeches,
as they appear in Gast:rail's edition; page 146—'47.
This extract shows that the great 'Federal leader
is more obnoxious to the charge of, being in favor
of direct taxation than would have . been supposed
from the noise of his friends on the subject
" Can any one doubt the impolicy of Govern.
meat relying upon the precarious source of such a
revenue It is continually fluctuating. It tempts
us by its enormous amount, at one time, into ex.
travagant expenditure; and we are then driven, by
its sudden and unexpected depression, into the op=
posite extreme. We ,are seduced by its Battering
promises into expenses that we might avoid, and
we are afterwards constrained by ifs treachery to
avoid expenses we ought to make. It is a system
under which there is a sort of perpetual, war be,
tween the interests of the governmentand the in
terests of the people. Large . importations fill the
coffers of the government and empty the pockets
of the people. Small importations imply prudence
on the part of the people, and leave the treasury
;•mpty. In war the revenue disappears; in peace it
is unsteady. On such a 'system, the government
will not be able much longer exclusively to rely.
We all anticipate that we shall have 'shortly to
resort to some additional supply of revenue within
ourselves. I was oppoied to the total-abolish
ment of the internal revenue. I would have pre
served certain parts of it at least, to be ready for
emergencies such as now exist.. And I sin, for
one, ready to exclude forein spirits altogether,
and substitute for the revenue on them' ? a tax
upon the spirits made within the country. No
other nation lets in so much foreign spirits as
we do. By the encouragement of home indus
try, you will lay a basis of internal taxation
when it becomes strong, that will - be steady and
uniform, yielding alike in peace and in war.—
We do not derive our ability from abroad to pay
taxes. That depends upon our wealth and our
industry; and it is the same, whatever may be the
form of levying the public contributions."

4ndges Grier:, and =lrwin, by Alesars' Illavison 3 arai
;Wylie, on behalf of the United Statetc, and
- Candlisaiislblahon on behalf of the, Defendant
and the questions discussed and decided are both
novel and'irnportant.
The facts are these: In the year 1844, Holthouse
became the vUucher for: tbe naturalizatiori riffeni
several persons at different times, and made the
usual oath, that he knew them have'resuled
the United States for the full, term of five years; in
the State of Pennsylvania - one year at .least, pre
vious to the dates of the respective applicationis;
and that the applicants had behaved themeivesita
persons of good moral character, attached tq the
principles of the Constitution qf. the United States,
and well disposed to the good order and happineis
of the same. " a
There were four indictments against theDefen.
dant for perjury in making these oaths. The itt
dictmenis were found at October term;' 1844, and
the cases have been regularly continued frorn'thit
time to the present argument.
Atlhe late, term of the District Court of the,
United States, Defendant's counsel moved to quash
the indictments for the following reasons:
Ist. That the Act- of Congress of .14th
1802; on the subject of Naturalization does not rc:-
qnire the oath of a voucher; but merely that 'the
Court should be " satisfied" of the required fact
and that inasmuch as an oath was not parti,cularly
required by the Act, and it was extraiudiciali , lind
its violation could not be perfury.,.
2d. That the Act of Ciingress of 30th of April,
1700, on the subject of peljury, was, repealed' b'y
the Act of 3d of March; 1823, on the same sub-
ject. • • •
There were also other reasons urged,'buttheae
were the main ones
The Judge of the District - Court certified the
cases for the opinion of the Ciicuit Court; and that
Court has sustained the reasons and quashed the
•
indictments. . ,
The principles decided; them are: . •
Ist. That no one can be punished for perjury
in vouching on oath falsely, under the Naturali+
tun Acts of 1802 and 1824; and '• •
2d. That a false oath taken before a Court, hav-
ing jurisdiction of any matter arising unde a Sta.
tule of the United.Statem will not amount to.per
' jury, or "false swearing" under the act of 36,25.
unless the oath has been positively orequired"'by
the statute. It is not enough that the Courfbad
power to adopt that method of satisfying itself of
the truth of the matter in dispute. •

charge of taking `a purse containing money!rom

him into a store, and charged Into with the :deed,
which be denied, but inimediately' paid her' the

The result of this case would indicate that it is

The Baltimore Robbery.—One of the persons no

number of robberies in Baltimore, and also in this

Fox•and Richards, in. Lawrenceville." His name is

There were found on his person a larg&roll of

about $4O.

gone down the ricer. Police officers below, par
ticularly Cincinnati,should be on the lobk out

The Aecident.—For fear other accidents May oc
cur, trona the same canse, it ray be well to note,
by way of warning, that the boiler in the. Oregon
Foundry was old and in bad condition, and the
pump which supplied it with water, was out of
order.

,piece of economy which we trust may be disperis

On Saturday evening the Bride of Lamniermoor

be produced, with other attractions. We doubt no
the house will be crowded.

us into error in regard to the unfortunate affair at
