The Libee Case. —The case ol the Common wealth vs. J. G. Backofen, for libel, which has been under consideration for eome days part in the Quarter Sessions, has created considerable excite* ment amognst onr German citizens. The prose* cntor and defendant are both German editors, and the alleged libel was one of those newspaper squibs which amount to but little, unless magni fied by the imaginations of evil disposed persons- The case was argued with much ingenuity on both sides. Mr. Backofen was defended by Mr. Shaler and Mr. Umbstaetter. The latter, gentle. . man had the principal charge of the defence, and he certainly displayed gieat ability in behalf of his client. Although Mr. U. had but recently re. covered from a severe illness, it is but proper to say that ho more than met the expectationa of his humorous German friends. . They were perfectly delighted with his defense of Mr, Backofen L. HARPER, EDITOR PITTSBURGH! " pgr- Trie QaxAte came oal flat footed for Gen, | Scott yesterday!

The Detroit Tribune of the ISih mat., contains ( tho following confirmation of the report ofMr. Bre. , dy’s death : Gen. Hugh Brady, the soteran soldier of the North West, is do more I He died this morning about ten > o’clock, in the 83d year of fata age, and as the newa thrilled tho public artery, a universal gloom was de picted on heart and coantonance, as of a good man isilen. .At the Ume of hie doatb, Gen. Brady was l Colonel or the 2d Regiment of Infantry, Brigadier and Major General by brevet, in command of his military Department or Division. Hugh Brtdy was a native of Pennsylvania; hin commission the oldest ! in the service—beariog date in 1792, vthen-he en tered the army a> a Lieutenant under Mad Anthony I Wayne, with tvhoae command he made tho celebra* 1 ted Indian campaign, which restored Kentucky to 1 the whites, after tbe defeat of SL Clair. He was 1 distinguished for bis gallantry in the late war with Great Britain, and in 1812 was promoted to the Col- I oneley of the 22d regiment of Infantry. When tho I army waa reduced in 1819, he was mado Colonel of I the 2d Infantry, of which regiment Gen. Bonnet Ri« I ley was, until recently, Lt. Colonel. Gen. Brady was at tho battle of Lundy's Lane, where he wasse | verely wounded in tbe groin. On his award nod I belt, worn on that occasion, can bo coanted more I than a dozon marks of shot received in that action. I Gen. Brady baa been a citizen of Detroit for the last I 26 years, and by bis urbanity, polUeaeaa and iiopre I tending gentlemanly won his way to the I hearts and good feelings of all Onr people. | His death resnlted from an accident which were -1 luted tho other day,bnt from which we bad been led ■ to hope the old soldier would recover. Tree, how ever, to the nobleness of his heart, he was at all ’ times prepared for the march, as in his delirium he ■ audibly eaclsimed, —"Lit the drumsbeal-rpty knap* . sock fa slung.'” How beautiful the sentiment—how worthy tbe christiaa soldier. Tbo Pestrnctlon of the Temples and Pyramids of Old figypt, [Egypt Correspondence of the London AthewcMn.]. Bnt if these things have been unnoticed or raisons derstood, another, more nearly affecting a traveller, cannot have been so, namely, the still rapid progress of the destruction of the monuments. Although l do not share in the superstitions enthusiasm of some, I coaid not bnt be moved by seeing what havoc U in progress everywhere, from the Pyramids to the Cataracts. It would be impossible to point out every place where the work of Vandalism is going on; but I will just mention one or two instances, in ] order to hint to the curious that they most come in time to these regions, or tboy will find little more than traditions of air the minor curiosities, and the great ones much ill-treated. The Northern Pyramid of Dashonr n now in progress of being converted into i a stone quarry, in order to build some how palace i or villa to the neighborhood;, the tombs of Sakkara aro used for the same purpose; the mounds of Aby* dus are ransacked for building materials; the Tem ple of Rrment is golog for the same purpose; and two temples have, within the last six years, been knocked down, and materials removed from near Bhe!kh Fad!, entirely without the knowledge of trav* ellers, to whom, indeed, thoy have remained utterly unknown until now that tboy no longer exist. I > wont to Sklimim to look at the great block of atone copied by Wilkinson, and supposed to be restored to Letronne. I found that the first line was entirely gone. They are breaking up the block to make lime. Enough, however,remains to show that some; at least, of M. Letronne’a soggea* tions are hot correct. He introduces words where tbore never have been any, as on the slightest ex amination is evident. It is worth remarking, also, that the inscription had previously been copied by Pocoke, who cautiously makes several very sensible and- reasonable restorations, without acknowledge meat by the French meant.

I famous case of seduction among the Near York up. | per ton, and states that it withhold the names of tho patties at present Tor tho reason that there is a pros pect of a settlement of the affair by marriage. The Dag Book says:— The victim is a beautiful young girl, one of lour sisters left to the charge of a. widowed mother, tho former wife of one of out mosr respectable mer chants. Their residence is in a fashionable street, and though not rich they are classed with and move in the society of our most fashionable,people. Ihe seducer is a young man about town, attached to on or our most aristocratic families, and only placed above the family whose peace he has oestroycd by tho possession of more wealth. He was Introduced to the daughters about 18 months ago at a large party given up town, and be. ing particularly struck with the beauty, elegance,! and accomplishments of the young girl, . was soon a constant visitor at the house or her mother. His plana were well laid. He did not by look or action lead any one or the family to suppose that he saw any difference in their position, but by the mos_res- Dectfal attentions eono won the good will of the mother, who looked opon the expected alliance as a desirable one for the daughter, and noon had so en twined himself around the heart of tho daughter, that when he proposed matriago ho waa gladly ae. copied, and the poor girl looked forward to a life of happiness with him to whom Bhe had given the fits! love of her young heart. ' .. . The trusting girl dreamed no wrong? he was all the world to her, and in her eyes the soul of manliness and honor. Then when the seducer found thatebe lived only for him, that he could control her every thought and action, he insidiously went to work to undermine the happiness he had taught her to believe waa here. Hnder the promise of ma rriage in a few weeks, and by the vilest sophistry known to hieclass, she fell a victim lb bis wiles, hot in the belief that she had sacrificed'herself to one that loved and who would never allow the breath of ahame to reach her i ehe only looked upon her Knit aa the great* I eat proof of her love for him oho felt she could have died for. , But the promised time rolled around, andronder tome flimsy pretence the marriage was delayed; again the tirao came.ionnd and ahe was again put oa. Hia visile became less frequent, and the probabla troth soon burst upon her that aho hid sacrificed herself 10 a villain. Concealment, too, was no lon ger possible j her mother discovered all, and finding threats and entreaties sain to make him do justice to her child, sho had revonree to the strong arm or the law. He waa arrested and brought to the home that he had made desolate. , - Aa noon as the poor girl saw him her love Turgot its wronga and rushing into bis aims the ca led him by hi* name and wept uponihjs breait, unpior* ed him to forgive her, lhat she had not urged the coarse that had been pursued, but that it was the act of her mother to save the honor of her dear Ch Tbe destroyer was unmoved; he stood like a statue of marble till she had finished her appeal to him, and then .roughly removing her arms, withdrew from her presence. We have not space to«day to say more on this .abject. He was held to bail in $6,000 to answer the charge.
