will hrgin to inquire why they have so

Had that not been the case, it may be
( Mihtrd whether the commonwealth’s
' uiisel would have given up the case.
Hr says he was acciuitted of the charge
«.f ptijury by the jury, without their
leaving the box. And what of that ?
When the cousel f^ave up the case, there
was nothing for the jury to try, and a
verdict of acquittal necessarily followed.
But let ushere in(|uire if it would not have
been a much stronger evidence of his in
nocence had the Judge not volunteered
his advice, and the case proceeded to
trial in the ordinary way, let the jury
hear the testimony, and then determine
'he party innocent. The n.antier in
which Judge Cooper discharged hfj ol-
ficial duties, and the tyranny he practis
ed on the bench, is sufficiently shown by
the fact, that for such acts lie was re
moved from ofhi e by the Legislature of
Pennsylvania.— I'he parties litigant in

him with the crime of perjury, were

The Convention.—Alter a mostalle di-.
cushion (tlie publicaiic>n of which wt
hope lo commence on W edTiesday,) thi
Convention Uill passed the Senate ou
Thursday.
The friends of the bill resisted every
attempt lo amend il, and consequently
to endanger its final passag**, by getting
it hung up between the two Houses.
Satisfied with submitiing the naked pro
position o! Convention or No Conven
tion to the fieeijciders, and believing that
for this end, the bill was perfect enough,
they would listen to no proposals of a-
mendment in however sincere a spirit
they were made. Mr. Cabell’s support
was lost by his course, who thought that
the provisions of the bill, restricting the
vote lo fieeholders were not sufliciently
definitej and who under this conscien-
tiou-i belief, felt bound in duty to himself
and constituents, to vote against what
otherwise, he was desirous ol supporting
But this loss, though regretted by the
Inetids of the bill, is compensated by
.he satisfaction of having placed it be
yond ihe reach of accident, and by the
certainty, that at length, the people of
Virginia are granted ihe facilities so long
denied them by their servants, of reform
ing the acknowledged and growing abu
ses of th-' S.ale Government. A major
ity of four is as suflicienl as a majority
of five.
The passing of this bill is indeed a
great era in our history. It is a great
conquest ifl’ cted after a furious and pro
tracied biiuggle, of the genius of im
provenjent and perfectibility, over the
iiabit of attachment lo whal is merely
venerable lor its dust and cobwebs.-—For
uur parts, there are scarcely bounds to
our aiiticipatioi.s of resulting political
Happiness and prosperity, from the pas
sage of this law. As men who have la
bored earnestly and unremittingly in the
good cause, we profter congratulations
to the friends of a Convention in every
part of the State.
[From ihe N. T. Commtrciul Mverther, Jan. 29.]
From a gentleman at W ast.ingion ol
high standing, and whose opportunities
of estimating the real strength of parties
are not exceeded by any person at the
capitol, we have assurances thai the con
fidence ofthe friends of the administra
tion is gaining strength every day. Our
correspondent concludes by saying,
“ Mr. Auanis’ friends see no cause lo
doubt his r*-e.ection. /I'hey trust that
the good senst, intelligence and patri-
otisii ol the countrv will pievail over the
uu'u noise and clamour of those who
want the offii es oi govei nraent for them

every rrason to lH.-lieve that Mr. Adams

mark, Ihat in cursing Jefferson they

Extract of » letter tn the Editor of the
more Patriot, dated
Cape ITaytien, Dec. 13, 1827.
I hasten by the first opportunity to eorrnm.
nicate the result of a spirit of revolution that
was attempted. on the night of the 8th, but
w hich has happily been so far put dow n, and
seven of the ringleaders apprehended, and are
uow undergoing their trials. The grounds up,
on which it was attempted, were tlissatisfaciioQ
with the present form and administration of go.
vernment, and opposition to the imposition of
what is called the contribution tax, h vied for
the purpose of liquidating the tribute now due
France for the acknowledgment of their Inde.
pendence.
Great fears were entertained that it would he
more serious than it has been ; and even now,
many are in arms expecting the arrival of (ii8;,f.
fected country people, who are reported to
have been encamped in great numbers upon
the plains—but 1 hope these rumors are incor-
rect.
P. S. Dec. 17.—This day, two of the ring,
leaders were shot, four transported from th«
island, and one imprisoned for four months

New-Y'duk, Feb, 5.
To a commcrcial friend we are in
debted for the following highly important
letter of 4th December, from Paris, (later
than any intelligence from there,) written
by an intelligent man, and entitled ihtre-
fore to the greatest consideration.
Paris, 4ih Dec. 1827.—“I wrote you
by the Queen Mab, which sailed yester
day. I take the chance of this reaching
Liverpool in lime for the packet to com
municate to you the important news
which has since been received here. The
Grand Sultan has absolutely rtfuMd all term
proposed hy the three allied Powers, and even
gone so far as to make the most extravngnnt
demands of them.—The consequence is
like to be an immediate war.—The hotn-
bardmenl of Constantinoi)le by the com
bined fleets of the tliree powers, and the
passing of the Prulh by the Russian
army, may soon be expected,
P. S. There is every appcirance to-day,
that a change will take place in the Mir-
isiry here, and that even M. de Villclo
will be obliged to leave il.”
Riot at South Boiton.'^X vlolrnt q'jar-

parlies, consisting, we undersUnd, of
Irish Catholics and Irish and I-nglish
Protestants. They engaged with such
earnestness that all efforts to separate th.’:
parties proved unavailing, until ihe bells
were rung, and the firemen reached ihe
spot with the engines, prepared to sup
press the flame. It was reported yester
day that several persons were k'lled in
the affray, but we learn that this is not
true. Some, however, were wounded.

Canal from Lake-Michigan to the IHinrnt
River.—The Buffalo Jouraal states Hut
the practicability of a canal from Lake
Michigan to Illinois river, has brcn
fully demonstrated in a report upon that
subject, by H. F. Slickney. The con
struction of ibis canal, il is said, will cost
but a mere trifle, when compared with
its impot iance lo the commerce of the
interior. It will opt n a direct commura'
lion from the VV’cstern Lakes to Europ*
and Ihe vast amount of property tnat^
floats on the .Mississippi and Missouri,
would seek a market in the two rx
tremitiesof our continent, with equal la
riliiv. It IS justly remarked that the
mind is- lost in ihis vast conce|)tion. We
expect,ere long, to see the feasibility of
a canal lo the moon clearly demonstrat
