1I011RID MURDER AND HOBBI?" Y
Tho body of Mr. Jarcd Burr, a rpecta
bio young man, aged 23, who f?" 1,13 r91"
ilcnce at lladdam, Conn, tlio 30h ult. on
foot to cmbarK at Cheslei Covo for New
York, was found murdered in the woods
on the road, his body covered with leaves,
two balls through his head, and his pockets
rifled of SGOO nnd a watch, which ho was
linown to have with him. Tho Middlelown
Sentinel of Wednesday furnishes further
pailicutars. It says of the deceased.
Jli's friends supposed ho had pone; but
rii tho return of tho vessel on Friday last
thev ascertained that he had not been in her.
They then made inquiries, and found that
ho had borrowed an umbrella at a house on
Lis way and then took a shorter way through
the woods; and that was tho last seen of
him. On Sunday morning, a largo number
of tho inhabitants turned out in search of
his body, tinder tho impression that he had
been murdered. Aftor searching about two
hours, they found his body in a brook about
a mile iron) tlio liouso ho had borroweu uic
umbrella. It was covered with water, and
concealed with moss grass, &c. with the
exception of one leg which tho water had
probably washed off so as to expose it to
view thus leading to tho discovery.
IIo was a respectable man, and has a fath
er with whom he boarded, being a single
man, and a number of connections living
in lladdam. Ho had a peculiar movement of
the eyes, and a head of hair as white as
that of an old man.
P. S. Wo have just learnod that a young
man, of Middle lladdam, named Gilbert
Brooks,' only about twenty year3 old, has
been taken upon suspicion and an examina
tion of him was to bo held at Chester.
Tho New Haven Gazette gives tho fol
lowing as the reasons for suspecting that in
dividual ;
He was in the storo with a gun in his
hand, and saw Mr. Burr count and put his
money in his pocket book. He told Mr.
B. that tho routo by tho foot path through
the woods was nearer than tho road, and
finally persuaded him to go that way. He
then purchased some powder and buckshot
at another store, and went into tho woods
ahead of Mr. Burr. Two buckshot were
picked from tho wound, and tho wzllot con
taining tho $10, which tho prisoner did not
know to bo in tho possession of Mr. B.
was found on the body untouched."
THE INDIANS'
Later accounts from the Cherokccs.
The Ozark Standard of tho Hth nit., con
tains advices from his Fayettoville corres
pondent up to October 10, from which it ap
pears that tho commanding officers t Fort
Gibson and Fort Wayne have issued orders
upon tho keeper of tho military stores at
Fayettevillo for an additional supply of
arms and ammunition, viz : for Fort Gib
eon, 132, muskets; Fort Wayne, 100 mus
kets and bayonets, 100 cartridgo boxes and
belts, 100 bayonet scabbards and belts,
10,000 muskets cartridges, 10,000 rifle car
tridges, and GOO muskets flints. As the
Standard observes, "we wish to create no
unnecessary excitement, but the informa
tion we have received favors the contrary
opinion. Tho whole matter looks very
much like a note of dreadful preparation.'
There are 20,000 Indian warriors upon our
frontier.and it is impossible to foretell what
will be the effects of tho first blow which
may be struck. In tho event of union a
mong the different tribes, tho forces of tho
Government upon the frontier would be to
tally inadequate to the protection ot our cit
izens. Tho militia must be looked to as
iho strong arm of defence and amid the
'pomp, prido and circumstances of glorious
war,' tho recently organized corps of the
6th division may have an opportunity of
eicnalizincr themcselves for 'deeds of valor
and feats of arms."
Singular Occident and Miraculous Es
cape. Uno ot tho most singular accidents,
accompanied by a most miraculous escape,
that we have ever had occasion to record,
occured yesterday in Portland-place. Mr.
Holland, a resident there, on returning from
his morning's work, to dinner, took into his
firms his little child a girl about two years
old and was walking with it playfully a
bout the house, when, finding the scuttle in
the attic open, he ascended the stairs to look
out. While he was standing on the stops
n favorito kitten of tho child's ran by them,
and passed on to the roof,
The child exhibiting a wish to catch tho
kitten, the father thoughtlessly placed her
(tho childlon tho ndrc-polo of tho house,
(a brick house, three stories high,) while
lio went on tho roof to catch young pussy
Jle had left the Ichild but a moment, when
it lost its balance, rolled over, and sliding
from the roof, was procipitated on to the
pavement below ! To the utter astonish
ment of tho spectators of this awful scone,
the child was takon up, not only alive, but
without the fracture of a bono, or any signs
of internal hurt or harm. Her flush was
slightly bruised, but this morning alio was
ns cheerful and, apparently, m as irooil
health as ever, particularly at breakfast tiino
when she laid to as if nothing had happen

AN ANTI-BANK MEETING
Of tho democratic citizens of Allegheny
cdunty, was held in the city of Pittsburg,
on tho lOtli ult. for tho purposo of publicly
expressing their sentiments in relation to
the suspension of specio payments. Tho
Pittsburg Gazclto represents tho meeting
as being one of the largest and most respec
lablo ever hold in that city. Tho meeting
was addressed by Messrs. Van Amringo,
Gnzzam, Kerr, Callagham, and Avery.
Tho following resolutions wcro adopted
without opposition :
Resolved That the tale put forth by per
sons interested, and the agents incorporated
banking companies, that the banks can stop
payment for three months, then resume,
and again suspend at pleasure, is an absur
dity, and contrary to law.
Resolved That the mode pointed out
by act of Assembly for individuals to cn
foicc their claims against banks refusing to
redeem their notes docs not altar or impair
the manner of proceeding by tho common
wealth on a writ of quo warranto.
Resolved That every bank which has
stopped payment of its notes, in gold and
silver, has by misuse, abuse, and contraveu
lion of the conditions on which it hold its
charter, forfeited said charter and rendered
null and avoid.
Resolved That the public good aiid tho
laws demand, that all hanks which have
stopped payment in gold and silver, should
forthwith bo proceeded against thro' tho
proper tribunal.
Resolved That His Excellency David
R. Porter, Governor of Pennsylvania, ho
requested to direct Ovid F. Johnson, Esq.,
tho Attorney General of tho commonwealth
to issue immediately writs of quo warranto
against any and overy bank within this
State, which has suspended payment in
gold and silver, the legal and constitutional
currency of tho land, to tho end that a de
cision may bo had according to law.
Resolved That a copy of the procee
dings be sent to President Van Buron
and Governor Porter, and that they bn
published in all the democratic papers of
the State.
A J Faming Voice. " To prcservo our
indepondanco wo must not let our rulers
load us with perpetual debt. Wo must
make our selection between economy and
liberty, onr profusion and servitude. If wo
run into such debts, as that was mustbcltax-
cd in our meat, and in our drink, in our nn
cessarics and our comforts, in our labors
and our amusements, for our callings and
our creeds, as the peoplo of England arc
our people like them, must como to labor
sixteen hours in tho twenty-four, givo tho
earnings ot hltccn of theso government for
thoir debts and daily expense, and tho six
teenth being unsulllcictit to afford us bread,
wo must live, as they now do, on oatmeal
and potatoes ; have no tiino to think, no
means of calling he misrnanagcrs to ac
count, but bo glad to obtain subsistanco by
hiring ourselves to rivet their chains on the
nocks of our fellow sufferers. Our land
holders, too, liko theirs, retaining indeed,
the title and stewardship of estate called
theirs but held really in trust for tho trea
sury, must wander, like theirs, in foreign
countries, and bo contented with penury,
obscurity, exile, and tho glory of tho na
tion. 1 lus cxamplo reads to us the saluta
ry lesson thatpri-atc fortunes arc destroyed
by public, as well ns by private extrava
gance. And this is tho tondancy of all hu
man governments. A departure from prin
cipal in one instanco, become a precedent
for a second ; that second for a ihird ; and
so on, till the bulk of tho society is reduced
to bo more automaton of misery, to have
sensibilities left but for sinning and suffer
ing. Then begins, indeed, tho bellum o-
milium in omina, which somo philosophers
observing to bo so general in this world,
have mistaken it for tho natural instead of
the abusive statu of man. And tho foro
horso of this frightful team is public debt.
Taxation follows that, and in its train
wretchedness and oppiession." Thos Jtf-
erJion.j
Democracy." The system of democrat
ic government is most beautiful in its struc
ture, and benevolent in its operations. It
is a transcript of the government of God.
It is supported by tho profoundesl research
es of philosophy, by the sublimcst teach
ings of religion, tho purest piety, tho deep
est virtue; the firmest faith, tho brightest
hopo, tlio most expensive charity. It gives
to each the rights of all. Each man is es
timated a unit, the sum of which makes up
tho whole. What is tho .light of one is the
right of all. It confers no titles; it bestows
no immunities. It makes each accountable
of the whole, and pledges tho protection to
tho whole for tho good of each, The man
that is born in insjgnifioanco, and bred in a
corner, may, by a continuance in well do
ing, rise to the centre of glory and honor.
Merit is the only avenue to success. And
tho sons and daughters nf tho rich, by tho
neglect of virtue, by indulgence in vice, will
sink into merited insignificance. The man
in oflico may bo removed without a revolu
tion, whilo vacant scats arc open to tho ora
ulation of all."
I can conceivo no form of government
so perfectly compatible with the sublime
principles of Christianity, or so directly cal
culated to piomoto tho happiness ot all
mankind, as a democracy, It needs only
to be understood in theory, and adopted m
practice, by a qualified to tost its qualities
to secure tho admiration and support ul ovo
ry philanthropist throughout tho world."
Hidih
Fatality of Fashions. It is a Blartling
fact that human life is shorter in New Eng
land now than it was fifty years ago There
are diseases now which wcro hardly known
then ; and which bring thousands to a pre
mature graze. What is tho cause of nil
this ? Has our climate csscntally changed?
No unless it bo for the belter. Tho cause
is to bo found, doubtless, in the corrupting
fashions of tho times, which regulate the
food and the dress of tho people, and which
make idleness more respectable than hon
est sturdy industry. Wo depiecato these
fashions ; tiiey aro rapidly leading us, ns a
people to these cxcossesgwhioh have prov
ved the ruin of other and earlier nations. It
is time this subject were looked into with
as much solicitudn and caro as politicians
look for tho causes of civil liberty and the
public good.
In olden times in tho days of the revo
lution when sons worked willingly in the
forest and tho fields, and partook" of tho
simple but substantial faro of their own
farms ; when daughters woro thick shoes,
loose gowns, and labored at tho spinning
wheel and loom, such diseases as con
sumption and .dyspepsia wcro seldom or
ever known. Doctors wero raro acquain
tances then. But, now, if a young man
would appear respectable, ho must carry a
green bag to court rather than a bag to mill,
ho must wield a yard-stick rather than a
hoc or shovel ; and, as for young ladies
alas 1 their shoes must be of kid thin as wa
fers ; their chests must be pont up in corsets
as closely as a Chinese foot, and their time
must be spent, in spinning slrect-yarn,
thumping the piano forte, or discoursing
sentimental song. All those fashions are
prejudicial to human lifo and ho.dth. Oh,
that fashion would over take the right direc
tion, and ! go upon tho maxim of sanc
tioning nothing which interferes with tho
aws of health. 1 hen would the hopes of
our country brighten, and individuals would
enjoy an amount of comfort which is now
too willingly but blindly sacrificed in false
state. Maine Cultivator.
MOBILE.
Tho editor of the Mobilo Advertiser, no
ticing some of tho proceedings in that City
niiikrs the following touching allusion to tho
sufferings which have been endured by
those who could not floe away from tho ep
idemic.
Few communities havo over been called
lo suffer as wo havo suffered. Pestilence
:ind Death has been in our midst, and havo
lone their work. Most of our citizens fled
from befoie tho destroyer, and loft tho fate
of tho cily in tho hands of a few. Of theso
n portion had been prostrated by sickness,
andjtho romaiudor were borne down with
fatigue consequent uponhhoir assiduities to
tho sick and dying. Upwards of fivo hun
dred of their fellow citizens had been swept
away, and consigned to tho houso appoin
ted for all living their associates, their bo
som friends, their dearest companions, one
after another had fallen around them they
wcro discouraged, sorrowful, dispirited and
sick at heart. At this time, this peculiar
time, when tho city was defenceless, and
tho energies of her citizens broken and
prostrate, tho dumon ov ixcrndiakism, with
torch in hand, appeared in our midst I In
tho stillness of the midnight hour, tho torch
is applied and behold ! our city is wrapt
in flames I Night after night In con
slent succession, were wo aroused finm
our slumbers bv tho midnight alarm
bell, and the starting cry of rim: 1 There
vas no security no safety. J;.vory one
felt when "o laid his head upon his pillow
at night, that nhould ho sleep, tho roof over
Ins head should bo enveloped in names
before the morning dawn. All know theso
horrid fires to bo the work of incendiaries
of monsters, who wero of us, among us
in our very midst. Under such circum
stances isit to bo wondered that an unprece
dented and almost uncontrollablo cxi'ito-
ment prevailed ? It could not be other
wise, l ho tact is, our citizens wero dri
ven almost to a stalo of desperation.

Mr. Elihu Burnet, tho learned black
smith of Worcester, Mass, has acquired a
knowledge of fifty different languages,
laboring at tho samo tiino two thirds of
tho day at an anvil. Professor Leo, of
Oxford in England, was n carpenter until
i , .
somowucro in nis twentieth year, yet a
student of languages also. He is now ono
of tho most distinguished oriental scholars
in Europe. Theso two individuals may
serve lo illustrate tho difference which a
series of years will show between ono who
trifles away his hours of loisurc, and anoth
er who employs them in somo useful un
dertaking. Tho Montroal Herald says, wo aro in
formed that lu3 excellency, the governor
general, intends lo proceed ot Upper Canada
about tho last ol tins month, when ho will dis
solve tho House of Assembly, in order that
there may bo a now election, for the purpose
of ascertaining tho opinion of tho inhabi
tants on the subject of responsible govern
ment as explained in tlio report of Lord
Durham, and as supported by tho robcls iu
the Upper Providence.
Tho President having been informed that
measures wcro on foot to take out to Eu-
ropo n party of Sacs and I' ox Indians for

torneys and Collectors of ports, to prevent
their departure for such purposo. Tins is
right, tor when abroad they would bo nioro
than strangers in a strange land, as they
would be altogether unacquainted with cus
toms of civilization, and would be cnliroly
at tho mercy of their keepers.
