tumstances we understand to be these : 3Ir. Lofton was out with his hounds hun ting deer, and having started one, he took his stand ; in a short time the deer passed him, about sixty yards distance, and when in the act cf leaping over some bushes, he fired. He immediately ran to the bushes, when he heard a noise at some distance from the place, which he suppo sed proceeded from the wounded deer, and went in quest of it. But, to his in expressible tLtonihhm-nt, he found the nche to be the groans of the unfortunate Kinney, whom he had unconsciously shot, and who was then in the last agonies of death, lie. expired shortly, without ut tering a word. On examination, one buck shot was round to have entered his side, and another his leg. Mr.. Lofton was to tally ignorant of Kinney being in the woods. A jury of inquest was summoned, who returned a verdict of accidental death, &c. The distance was measured bv the jury from the spot where Kinney lay, to where the deer was when fired at by Lof ton, and was found to be 111 yards ; to that the whole distance which the shot traversed before their progress was arres ted by the ill-fated Kinney, was about 170 yards. How often arc wc forcibly remin ded of the solemn and momentous truth, that " in the midst of life, wc arc in death 1" Truly may it be said, " the spider's most attenuated thread is cord, is cable, to the slender hold man has on life. He is here to-day, and gone to-morrow. The morning's sun may behold him, in all the buoyancy of hope, flushing with health ; and ere its last rays have streaked the western horizon, he may be like a clod of the valley, cold and lifeless. Such is man ! thus brief and uncertain his date ! TUOM THE SAVA.VXAII G HO KOI AX. The French papers have determined that Spain shall not exist under the Con stitution, and they are joined by the Lon don Courier, which is determined that no people under a constitutional system can thrive, except Great Britain. Thus it is that these legitimate journals co-operate in the task of representing the Spanish government on the eve of destruction, and her capital as convulsed by the most dreadful excesses. There is just ground to believe that the recent accounts cf the disturbances in Madrid, and the trial of Morillo are unfounded, or at least much exaggerated. A letter received in Phila delphia, dated the 28th August, eight days after the date of the above distuib ances, makes no mention of them. The remarks contained in it, of a political na ture, are "that their affairs goon there at present rather smoothly ; the people are divided into three parties. Those who have reason and reflection, and those who can see their advantage in the constitution, support it ; the thoughtless and short sighted are indifferent and apathetic ; and all those who exercised any of the powers of despotism, or put in practice any of the orders or wills of the tyrant, by which they gained something are the bitter en emies of the late reform and emancipa tion of the Spanish nation. Every day the first class gets great numbers of re cruits from the second, as the constitu tional practices and efforts are felt. Our advices from Greece are yet un satisfactory. Such is the florid and infla ted style of the little official news offered, that it is as difficult to extract the truth as to extract the philosopher's stone from the crucible of the alchymist. We have an account of a trreut naval victory ob tained by the (.recks over the Turks, in which the number cf vessels engaged (on the side of the Greeks ninety sUis) would in Europe or America be considered as tonishing, and which might be supposed sufficient to give the victors uncontrolled dominion of the sea. As a set-off to this we have the detail of a Turkish victory, in which the Greeks I t in the whole by the sword and the flames, above 3000 ; the remainder, it appears, haing intreatcd for mercy, received it i:i compliance with the words of the Koran, which the Tur kish commander devoutly quotes 14 when thou lvst gained a victory over thine en cmv thou shall p.trdon him, in order to testify thv gratiuulc." Very much in the style of the Knight, who C.ri vMto cut the Frenchmen's throats, " Ami then he cut them." QUEILV C.iiOLLYE. The Germans seem to regard Caroline with other eyes than those of the English ministry. 'Twenty thousand people are stated to have followed this unhappy wo man to the only place where she could find repose from conjugal persecution. What a spectacle is here presented, when beta the husband and the wife, in such different circumstances, are both receiving the Innors allotted to royalty ! George is crowned, and Caroline denied even to become n encctator of that ceremony she dies amidst such demonstrations of joy and hilarity. Her body is transport ed to her native country, and she is fol lowed to the grave with as numerous a retinue, as attends his majesty in his route through his own dominions the caval cade of joy and mirth, and of sorrow and mourning, seem to vie with each other in the public demonstration of feelings so opposite.

Congressional E lections J o h Finlau has been elected a member of the Seventeenth Coihtcss, from one of the districts of Pennsylvania, by a majority of 674 votes over Mr. M'CulIoch, the late member; but, by a singular mistake of the judges of election in Cumberland, who, in their official report, stated Mr. E's poll in that county to he fourteen in stead of fourteen hundred, Mr. M'CulIoch will he returned as elected. That gentle man, however, it is stated, will not at tempt to take his scat, and the erroneous return will, no doubt, he promptly set a side by the House of Representatives. Col. David Chambers is elected a mem ber of the 17th Congress, from the 4th district cf Ohio, by a large majority over his opponent, Mr. Patterson. The fitvmti attempt has recently been made, without effect, to eh ct a member of Congress for the second district of the state of Vermont, now vacant. In that state, as in most of the eastern states, a majoritv of the whole number of votes at all elections is necessarv to make an clcc-tion. Almost every dav furnishes some fresh evidence of increasing activity in the dif ferent branches of domestic manufactures. This must he an acceptable fret to every one who values the entire independence of the country the more cspcri dly as this fl ittering progress is not the effect of extravagant premiums, exacted for the benefit of manufactures from the other branches cf domestic industry. Our man ufacturers owe their present encourage ment, and their prospects of future suc cess, in a great measure, to a less excep tionable and less precarious c.uise than governmental bounties tlicv owe it to their improved skill , their economy and industry, and the increasing preference given hy our ci'izrns to domestic fahzics. These ;,re the true encomvgers of do mestic manufactures, liu! we are hannv to i - - ii. and mat experience is everv day ueniuii strating their adequacy. When our man ufacturers shall leans to rclv on these aids alone, a reaction will he the result, deci sively favorable to the perfection and sta bility of our manufactures. Those who prefer domestic Lsbrics now, stinnilui:g to greater improvement, will create by that improvement greater inducements for the preference, until the exclusive consumption of our own fabrics will be- come general throughout the countrv.

Some years ago a gentleman made a bet of one thou sand guineas, that he would have a coat made in the course of a single day, from the fast process of shearing the sheep, to its completion by the tailor. The wa ger was decided at Newbury, Kngland. on the 25th of June, 181 1, by Mr. John Coxeter, of Greenham Mills, near that town. At five o'clock that morning, Sir John Throckmorton, Kart. presented two Southdown weather sheep to Mr. Coxcter. Accordingly, the sheep were shoin, the wool spun, the yarn spooled, waipcd, loomed, and wove ; the cloth burred, mill ed, rowed, dyed, dried, sheared, and press ed, and put into the hands of the tailor by 4 o'clock that afternoon ; and at twen ty minutes past six the coa, entirely fin ished, was presented by Mr. Coxcter to Sir John Throckmorton, who appeared with it before an assemblage of upwards of 5p00 spectators, who rent the air with their acclamations. The foregoing outdone. The N. York Western Farmer says that, on the morn ing of the 1 6th October, a full suit of clothes was made for a gentleman in Manchester, from wool in the fleece, in less than eight hours from the moment it was first taken in hand. The wool was picked, carded, spun, wove, and dressed at the Manchester Factory. The work was commenced at I o'clock in the morn ing, and before seven, the suit was com pleted and worn to the Fair and Cattle Show at Canandai-'ua. From the Charleston Courier.
