will prove its dire enemy.
Wi h great deference to the judgment of its
talented young publisher, we would suggest a
shortening of what we take to he his Editoi ials ;
(the absence of the Editorial scabboard "avi-. us
in doubt,) for it is a well istabl.shed fact that'the
publ.e generally, and the mechanical portion of it,
esptcuby, will but t-kmi over a k.n aiticle, and
thus neiihrr sati&fy themselves or do justice to the
views of the Wiiter. In a weekly paper of the des
cription just mentioned, our remarks apply with full

Sweeping of the Custom House and Post
Office. There has been a most extensive
business here this week in the way of guillo
tining. The custom house and the post of
fice stream with the blood of innumerable
victims and yet not one-twentieth of the le
gion that are clamouring for place are satis
fied. Fifteen of the post office clerks were
backtd out most unceremoniously last night,
and forty one of the inspectors and watchmen
from the custom house had notice to quit.
Last night ended their month, and they are
thrown off without an hour's notice, and many
of them without a dollar that they can call their
own.
Congress would do not only a service to
the Treasury, but to the officers themselves,
if it would so far reduce the emoluments as
to render the offices no inducements for per
sons to seek them in preference to any other
business.
A few years since, when a distinguished
A 1 1 . i - . - .

mark m the legislature of New York, during
the heat ot a political debate, that " to the vie
tors belong the spoils," it was taken up by the
then opponents and condemned with most
unsparing bitterness. It was reprobated as
a proposition ol the most unparalleled atroci
ty ; and was denounced as a flagrant violation
of all social ties. Indeed one would have sup
posed that it was an indication of cruelty and
inhumanity, which the then complainants
could under no circumstances reconcile them
selves to tolerate ; but no sooner are these
men, by an unexpected change in politics,
placed in power, than they commence the same
practice in the most ruthless manner. Every

Xew York and Virginia.
We published a few days ago the vote in the
Senate of New York upon the proposition of
Mr Paige asserting the constitutional obliga
tion of New York to surrender fugitives from
labor, and the sense of the Senate' of N. York
that stealing a slave within the jurisdiction
and against the laws of Virginia is a crime
within the meaning of the second section of
the 4th Aiticle of the Constitution of the Uni
ted States, and that therefore the reasons as
signed by the Governor of New York for his
refusal to surrender the said alleged fugitives
from justice, upon the demand ot the Execu
tive of Virginia, were not in the opinion of
the Senate of New York sufficient to justify
such refusal.
The last motion in the Senate was to make
the resolution of Mr Paige the special order
for an adjourned meeting of that body, and
the mover stated distinctly that he should re
gard the negative of his motion as tantamount
to a rejection of the resolution.
The motion was lost, as stated in a former
number, by a vote of 11 to 1 3. Since then
we have received the reply of Gov. Seward
to the letter of the Hon. John M. Patton, the
acting Governor of Virginia at that time,
which we publish to day. It will be seeu
that Gov. Seward obstinately adheres to his
heretofore expressed opinions, and is detet
mined not to comply with the demand of
Virginia.
The controversy increases in interest and
importance as it advances, and we regard the
position assumed by the Governor of N. York
and which is indirectly sustained by the Le
cislat ure of that State, as one calculated, if
sustained by the people of the "Empire
State J' to weaken and ultimately to sunder
the bonds of the Federal Union. Norfolk

Atrocious Murder.
The following letter which was received by
the Post Master at this place a few days since,
details one of the most coid blooded murders
which has ever been perpetrated in Geor
gia. .
Centerville, Talbot county, Ga.
April 15th 1841. )
Dear Sir. There was found on yesterday
morning, about one mile from Gorden's ferry,
on Flint river, near the residence of Mr
Courley, a man who was murdered, evidently
with a hand hatchet, by being struck three
blows on the head, and then having his throat
cut on the left side with a knife. The circum
stances are these, as near as can be ascer
tained: there were two men travelling togeth
er, whose names are Hammond, which is the
name of the murdered man, and the other who
seems to be a New Yorker, that is, by his
appearance, and says his name is Bartlet W.
Murdock ; he is now under arrest, with
strong suspicions of being the perpetrator of
the deed. He says that he came from your
town, and fell in with this man. Hammond
had a grey horse ; and Murdock was travel
ing in an open top buggy, and drove a bay
horse. I think Murdock is a fair skin man,
with light, very light hair, and about 23 or 24
years of age. The man murdered, seems to
be about 35 years old, heavy beard and dark
hair, would weigh perhaps 165 or 170
pounds.
There was found on Murdock's person a
bowie knife engravecLon the handle J. J. H.
I have thus given you the particulars as I
learned them on the spot from the officers.
It may be, that Hammond . may have some
friends in your town or county. If so, give
them some information soon as you can.
As to Bartlet W.- Murdoch, (as his papers
show him to be of that name) there can be
but little doubt of his guilt. If he has any
friends, they ought to know it. It may be,
the horse and carriage he has, and which he
claims, may not be his, but belong to some of
your citizens. He had with him in the buggy
some tools for a Mr Knovvlton, perhaps for
merly of your town. If you have any know
ledge of the above persons, let me know as
soon as you can. Direct your letter to Tal-
IOuia Obi;.

Waking up! It is said that the excitement
in Philadelphia is so great, in consequence
of the startling disclosures of the condition of
the National Bank, that he who would now
advocate the chartering of such another mon
ster, would almost stand in danger of a coat
of tar and feather." The Philadelphians
have ever been the strong advocates of a Na
tional Bank, but corruption has stalked so
boldly among them, and ruined so many good
and honest business men, and helpless wid
ows and orphans, that they now turu their
backs with loathing upon such an institution.

The Hundred Weight. It is not long
ago since the Americans reduced the hun
dred weight from 1 12 to 100 pounds. The
old 12 bothered them in their calculations,
and was observed not to be of the smallest
use in any respect ; so having resolved to cut
down the" hundred weight to what it ought to
be, namely, one hundred pounds, they im
mediately, and without any fuss, executed
their resolution. This is a small matter, but
it is the characteristic of the country in which
it took place. We question whether the Brit
ish could manage to take the odd twelve
pounds from the hundred weight without a
twenty years' talk. It does not signify that
nobody can explain how or when the pdd
twelve originated. "There it is that .is
sufficient it must not b6 meddled with -would
you ruin the country with your preten
ded improvements? Let the hundred weight
alone wc have become a great people with
it as it is, and with that let us be content."
