At length nine o'clock arrived, and the
seene must change to the northern part of
- Sheernus Neil's orchard. The Dead Box

through the back door of the inn, entered
'the garden. which was separated from the
orchard only by a low clipped hedge of
young white-thorn; in the middle of which
stood a small gate. In a moment was

MONDAY. DECEMBER. 26, 1842
. We understand that a Master iron ftitind-:
er of this city, who is. well known as a bits,
let and flaky Coon politician, has, been em
ployed lathe mean and heartless' business
of reducing the wages of the worktium en
gaged in our:Foundries. ; Not content with
grinding the men in his u.vn establishment
to the very lowest point. he is said t,► have
takes upon himself the unworthy. task of
going round .a nong employers in the same
liusinesq, and urging upon them to reduce
wages in their foundries to the alime rates
that he was paying. Umfortunately for the
poor workingmen, he found some who were
willing to take his advice, and at least in one
establishment, notice has been given that
wages will, after the Ist of January; be re
duced more than 30 per cent, below the pre
sent low rates,
We had thought that the "order system,"
whch has,beeo brought to great perfection
in m toy manufvtories, had offered all ne
cessary facilities to keep the laboring man,
eatirely depen lent on his employer. It
would seem, however, that he must yield to
ill greater qlytc*Ota, if he would get
lelve to live. - - 12:;"
We should lik. to know what excuse there
is Ikr t`tis 5.1.1 lan and ruinous reduction of
the wages of f‘ninary.inen. Metal has f4l•
wit'tout a c‘n•rasponding
tiun in the price of castings, and the pur.
chaser is not, we believe, to reap.-,any ad
vantage from this fl igrant injuitice to the
producer. It k not contemplated, that we
have heard, to curtail the enormous profits
of tha iron founders. Such wanton oppres•
sion cannot be defended upon any ground
whatever. We have no wish to interfere
between e nployers and workmen in any
branch of business, but as lovers of justice
wo most protest against such outrageous im
positions as this we have recounted.
It is but right to m tntion here, that the
man thr•Llgh ‘vhose intlience it is believed
this reduction has heen,b. ought aboat, is a
brawling advocate for a high tariff, which
he sail,wo tad bring relief to the rwchon:cs
of this c 'vary. Taat our present tariff
should be of he refit to that class, there can
be no ciu-s'ion. Bit of what advantag-e to
them, is wise legislotion upon this subject
what avail is it that a Tariff of duties is
loid, calculated to afford either positive

The litston Advertiser contains an ab
stract of - the condition of the Banks of Mas
sachusetts prepared by John P. B.gelow
Secretary cf the State, from the annual re
turns. These returns were ordered by
the Governor and Council to be made for
the first Saturday in October.
It appears from this abstract, that the
present number of banks in operation in
the Commonwealth, is 111 ; with an ag
gregate capital of $32,631,060. This is a
reduction in the amount of capital, within
the last year of $128,740. The aggregate,
circulation of the 11l banks is $8,049,906;
of which amount n0wevet:,51,678,278 is in
the possession of other. banks, and• taken
out of circulation, leaving the actual eircu.
lation $6,371,628. The amount of depo
sites not bearing interest is $6,130,164.
The amount of specie in the banking
houses, at the close of the day of the date
of tyre returns, was $2,682.309. The a•
mount of notes, bills and other securitie
discounted, was $44,610,391.
The amount oe circulation this year is
less than by the return of last year, which
was made in September, by $1,278,837;
the amount of deposites is less than last
year by $864,676; the amount of specie is
less by $404,512, and the amount of secu
rites discounted is less by $2,160,975.
The Jews of New York.—The Jews in
New Yolk are said to be ten thousand in
number. They have six synagogues.
Their Benevolent Society has, in the last
year, collected about .5,000 and expended
about 4,000 dollars. The legal liabilities
they still lie under in some countries of
'Europe, and the strong prejudices they
there have to encounter, are, it is said ; dri
ving many persona of this faith to seek ref,
uge in the United States.
Uncle Sam holding on to his own.—lt is
said that when the agent of Indiana appli
ed at Washington for ber share of the land
proceeds, he was politely informed of the
indebtedness of his state to 'the general
government. and that her ohore would be
applied, to her . cred it.

upers 4 ..l. letter received in New York
by a 'lnsrchant vessel from Sr. Tho

and had suffered so much that she was'

is now believed that the letter in question
was written by one of the mutineers.en

success of their plot, and with a. view of
accounting fir the expecte.] "disappear

A Dtstinguisbed Bankrupt
The greatest of American .Bankrupts
are poor trifling thimble riggers, when
compared to some of the noble swindlers
of England. The last one of 'lmre than
ordinary merit of whom we have read, is
a Laird Huntingtower. This nobleman
appears was declared a bankrup.le
dealer in horses for upwards of two'.;:bitn
dred thousand pounds; and his assets a
mounted to—nothing! His system was
to buy horses wherever he could, and sell
them for cash- 7 pocketing the proceeds,
and making no entry whatever of the trans
action. He and and Capt. king drew and
endorsed bills to an immense amount, u
pon each other's credir, which were 'kited'
amongst the Jewish money dealers, at au
enormous rate of discount. Lerd iluu
tingtower was to stand' up in open court,
and testify by the hour to his Own infamy,
and is held in prison, in the interval* when
the court does not sit—it not having yet
be .n decided whether he can he allowed
his certificate of discharge or not.

From China.—By advice from Malta to
25th Nov, it was stated that a specialsteam•
er had arrived at Suez, with news that the
Emperor - of China had given in his adhe
sion to the treaty. but refused to sign till
Her Majesty's was received. The refusal
was based on the exigency of etiquette ob•
served in China. However, the half-of the
first instalment agreed to by treaty, had
been paid, and confided to the frigate Blonde
which was to sail immediately for England

Philip Spencer was born in Canandai.
gua, New Y.r.k, and at the time of his
awful death, w about. nineteen years of
age—but in strength of mind, intelligence,
literary attainments, and bold daring, was
far, far beyond his years. Nothing _in his
history of much interest is the writer
_aware of, until his College career. He
was soQt to Union College, Schenectady,
but did riot graduate, as his conduct there
became so notorious that he was expelled
or • hail leave to absent hi Lself, He re
turned to his friends where he remained
some tune. Being of a wandering turn
of mind, and fond of any thing.:lrrtlering
on the dangerous and matvelloas,
elo
ped from his home and went to New York:
concealing his parentage, shipped fir a
whaler fitting nut at Nantucket. and (along
with m•iny others of kindred feeing, but
not of that dating reckleas spirit, fearless
alike of life or death,) was seat to the lat
ter place'in a small schooner.
The ship that he was to embark in not
being ready, he remained some time on
the island. During this t . me, -and previ
ous to the gale of October, 1841, he volun
teerA to go out on the banks in a small
vessel fir what tho whalemen denominate
titb 4W
Black Fish, and in that gale came near be•
ing lost, as many were at the time; as it
was, they got hack to Nantucket quite 'a
wreck. Hero I told , s him that I was vur—
prised that he should ever think of adopt
ing that hazardos life. s'lught only by
those whom friends arid fortune had dis,,
carded, and whose last lingering star of
heme,had-isank beneath the horizon, per
h4psi*Verti) re appear. He smiled at
iiii*iinistufnentrat his deserting his hap
:/fito4itirint4,s and delightful Come; and
Hnoil*f f i tlEnrik back, as I often have siuce,
I thlikef the smile of Spen , er—yes, as I
now write, I can see him as distinct as the
words I am penning—that smile
. was not
human! The wild rolling of his eyes told
plainly enough, to any one at all discern.
ing, that something Nas working in that
heart that could not submit to the dull
monotony of this peaceful, ev , !ry day life.
His reply was that he "should like to
harpoon a whale, and see the blood spilt,"
that he was "not aft iii of danger,arld
an adventurous life." The ship being rea
dy to receive her uasks, he was compelled,
with many others, to work from morning
till night in getting ih.sm and her CBl'oo On
hoard, being allowed only thirty m nutes
for their meals, which were of the coarsest
kind; and icily live hours feet night in a
miserable foreca - s?le. in close communion
wit h the dregs of New York streets. I
told him I thought this serVihe I dimr and
hard iiving would have eatisfi 'd his curi,is
ity to sue the word; but r.,,—the excite
ment was to come. In I . Ft m.iti,n if his
assertions, he shre.ved me los hand-:, and
they flow their hoiny, hardened appear•
ance, corroborated his statement of what he
had undergone at Nantucket. Having dis
posed of his wardrobe and replaced them
by the coarse and homely gal b of the wha
ler, he was ready, as was also the ship, in
two days, to sail for their cruising gromnds
ire the South Seas.
lu the interval of time from his disap- I
pearance from home to the time of our nar
rative, his friends had, by diligent enqu
ries, found his whereabouts, and knowing'
his uncontrollable disposition, and his de
termination at all hazards to go to sea, their
influence and his father's position as one ofl
the Cabinet at Washington, procured for
him a midshipman's appointment, which
was sent with all despatch to Nantucket,
with a description of his person &c., to the
care of the owner .oithe ship. This and a
letter from his father was placed in his
hands, This prospect of
.change from
drudgery to a comparatively easy life, had
oat much effect on him as it would have
on most young men; but by the earnest
persuasions of the owner and captain, af
ter learning who he was, he was induced
by them to give a volunteer $3O to take his
place in the shit).
He came on to New York and there
was fitted out by his uncle, Captain Spen
cer, of the naiv, and by him introduced on
board of the gnatd-ship North Carolina.
His sojourn on hoard of that ship (about
icor months) teas passed, as is much of the
time of some other young men in like cir
cumstances, in occasional, and 1 am sorry
to say, frequent dissipation, principally at
night, but cot unfrequentlyein the lave of
day, He committed an aggravated and un
provoked assault upon his superior oTcer,
which was investioated by the 'Commo
dore, in the cabin of that ship, in the pres•
ence of the uncle, Capt. Spencer, and a
commamier, of the navy. The written re
port made by the insulted officer to the
Secretary of the Navy, though from the
commandant of the station, was unheeded,
supposed 'from family influence,' and
Spencer was ordered to the brig Somers.
The officer thus treated resigned from the
service. The writer does not charge die
excellent commander of Li kit' North Care
,
lina'with a knowledge of the
.facts of - the
dissipation among some of the young men
of that ship; he believes it was entirely be"
yond . his kdow;ledge.
The horlid death of young Spencer
maat7be lit'oat fearfull,y distressing to the
feelings of his family; and , the writer
