    A Waabingtou letter says —'Geu. Cass
has announced bis willingness to comply
with tbe request of the free State aieu of
ivausas. He has promised to take charge
ot' and to present their petion for admission
to the Union and the constitution adopts by
them Whether he will vote accordingly,
remains to be seen.
As soon as it was known that Alexander
11. l'ice had been elected mayor of Boston,
Lis friends assembled in great numbers iu
troDt of his store, an 1 cheered him. lie
appeared at the door, attended hy Dr. Na
thaniel P. Hhurtleff—his defeated opponent
—■who introduced him to the citizeus iu a
oriet speech.
The Washington correspondent of the
I.eger says;— Land Warrants are becoming
a drug in this market, and are quotably
lower. Eighty-even cents is the lowest
point to which they have receeded, being a
decline of thirty-eight from the price estab
lished by Government.
HORRIBLE ACCIDENT. —A tuaa, named
Michael Culleu, fell into a vat of boiling
water at the Union factory in Norwich, Oon

The Baker Trial
The Jury in this case after having bceu
oat all night, couldn't agree and discharged.
It stood seveu in favor of verdict for man
daughter, two, for murder, three for acquit
tal. Before the case was submitted to the
irv and after the eharge of the Judge, Mr.
Brady, Baker's counsel, excepted to the
Judge's charge for stating that farts were
proved, Mr. Brady said. I therefore except
in the first place to the whole of your
1 louor's charge upon these fact., on the
ground that your Honor is not a juror:
that your opinion on the facts is of DO con
sequence, and thai you have no right to ex
press it.
TITK COST. —According to a Paris cor
respondent of the National Intelligencer,
the cost of the Eastern war greatly exceeds
oue million of dollars per day This is in
deed enormous. Such an outlay, long con
tinued, must produce disastrous results to
the nations immediately engaged. It is
said that of 80,000 horses sent to the Black
Sea by France, only 10,000 remain. The
other 70,000 either perished in battle, or
through exposure, fatigue and neglect.—
The average cost was abont §IOO each, and
about as much more to convey them to the
Crimea.
SELLING OFF AT COST.
THE subscriber, about removing to the West,
will sell his entire stock of goods, which is very j
) irgc. at cost. Persons will please cali before
buying elsewhere and examine for themselves.
Countiy stores desiring to purchase goods will ;
be supplied <>u more reasonable terms that 1
tn.-y can purchase them ia the city. All per- .
sons who have unsettled accounts will call im
mediately and settle, otherwise their accounts
will be left in tile hands of a proper officer for
