The Slavery Abolition Bill has passed the House of- Commons. The Poles. The Emperor Nicholas has just issued two decrees, which must excite the indigna tion of the world. The first is a decree rendering political offences amenable to courts martial, in con rtravention of the tyrant's 'organic statute,' of the 22nd February, 1832, promising a special law for offences apainst the State. The second is possibly as strong an act ofc tyranny as was ever carried into execution V any age or country, however fierce the aspect of the ruling sway being an official order to punish the teachers and youth of Poland for studying their native language and history ! In one word, a semi barlwrous jeoplel with the grostest injustice, subject to a comparatively enlightened one, and coolly decree the-utter' destruction of their annals, literature, and language. The students who have beenstudying their native language and history, are to be, sent off to the armies! ' .- London, Thursday evening, Aug. 8, half past seven o'clock.- According to some of the Paris journal.--, the Portuguese jexiles have already received notice, that "their allowance will cease on the 1st Sep tember, their power of returning to their own country by that date, being taken for granted. It is also as scrted that the ex-Empress and young Queen will give up their Hotel in Paris in all September, which proves that great confidence exists in the entire de j'jat ot Miguel in quarters likely to be best informed. , . i Trenton, Sept. 14th, 1833, Mr. Watson, Our Superior Court terminated its session this morning. On Thursday morning, the Court pro ceeded to the trial of Isaac D. Lipsey, who was in dicted for murdering Agrippa Roberts, of Onslow county. Lipsey's case waa removed from Onslow to Duplin, and subsequently from the latter county to Jones. There was much contradictory testimony, eleven witnesses having been examined on the part of the State, and fifteen for the Prisoner. For the State, it was proven, that the unfortunate affair took place at an electioneering muster on the North East River in'Onslowxthat Lipsey and Roberts were seen quarrelling, the former witha long, keen bladed knife in his lmnd,and that he was after some reluctance prevailed upon to put up hie knife, and Roberts indu ced to get on his horse and go off; and that Lipse1 upon bcin interrogated as to what he intended to do with bin knife, said that he intended " to stick it in some one." After this, Lipsy went up to Roberts' horse, took him by the bridle, snapped his fingers, &e. as if to frighten the horse, this brought on an alter cation. Roberfssaid he would not get mad, and laugh ed, Lipsey was then seen to draw his knife and put it into his" pantaloons pocket, with the handle down wards One of the witnesses then said out aloud? " that man has got a knife drawn, some one had better take it away from him." Roberts upon hearing this, got hold of a hickory stick, and stepped off two or three steps, and Lipsey advanced through the crowd uponhin, with his knife in one hand, and a stick in the otheyand as he approached him, Roberts struck Lipsey With his stick, and Lipsey run his knife into hirn just below the waistband of his pantaloons. Roberts staggered back, and expired in thirteen mi nutes: Both blows seemed to be given near about .1 InP Rflmo f imo This statement of the facts was materially varied by the testimony offered in behalf of the Prisoner. After Roberts got off from his horse, he was seen to take Lipsey by the breast, and Lipsey then raised his stick, but did not inflict any blow; they were then separated, a dispute again arose between them, and ! Roberts was seen to advance upon Lipsey, and inflict a blow upon him with a stick, and as he raised his fctick to repqat the blow, Lipsey pitched at him, and stabbed him, with his knife. There were many wit nesses examined, and we believe this to be a correct synopsis of the testimony on both sides. Here the day closed, and the Judg, having put the Jury in charge of an officer, caused the Court to be adjourned until Friday morning at 8 o'clock. The Court having met according to adjournment, James V. Bryan, Esq. having been appointed Soli citor for the State, in consequence of the indisposition f Oenl. Stephen Miller, opened the argument in be half of the State ; he was followed by G. S. Attmore, and Jno. H. Bryan, Esq'rs. for the Prisoner, and the argument for the State was closed by W. C. Stanly, , El- We could not but admire the great dignity, patience, and urbanity, of Judge Settle, during the ' Progress' of this arduous and laborious trial, for in ad dition to the great length of time, consumed in the lamination of the witnesses, each one of the Coun sel) for the State and the Prisoner, addressed the Jury for more than an hour a piece. The iudge summed Vpthc'ttmony, in a clear, able, and lucid manner; expounded the law arising upon the facts, with great perspicuity, and the Jury after being absent sometime, returned . a verdict ;of manslaughter. The prisoner was sentenced to be branded with the letter M, on the brawn ol his thumb, and to be imprisoned six months. Judge Settle is a decided favorite among us, and his decisions here, seem to have given very great satis faction.. Yours, L. A splendid government will invariably result from oppressive and unequal taxation, as will be elucidated by an account of the Tribute paid to their Caesar by the people of England, which appears in the last London Metropilitan,and is referred toin our columns. We say a splendid government, but not a solid one. Where the great operative mass of society is ''taxed up to the eyes" to swell the pomp and bedeck the cha riots of the privileged and unappr oachable sons of prerogative nobility, an exterior of dazzling splen dour must of course appear in all places of public re sort. But the average state of the domestic fireside, it- the true standard by which a government should be judged. It is neither to be wished nor expected, that any nation, in modern times, should reduce its heads of department to the simplicity practised by the old Roman general, who made it a point to live on roots, but on the other, hand, preserve us heaven) from a system of taxation which exacts from the ten ant of a, narrow shop, one third more than from the "princely Buckingham" f for his regal mansion 900 feet in front, with its corinthian columns, towers, temples, woods and groves ! The public debt of Eng land is now about 800 millions of pounds sterling, yet it is said that 14,00 men in the kingdom could pay it by sacrificing the immense fortunes which they have accumulated. Mrs. Trollope says that an American cannot con verse for five minutes, without using the word " dol lar" once or oftener. After "making due allowance for fashionable exaggeration, it is to be feared that there is much truth in this remark. Why should the expression " worth" such and such a sum, receive such universal andjestablished use? We say a man is " worth thousand dollars," when the truth is, that although by some means or other he has got possessi- n of that sum, he is radically a man oHio worth at all. Or do we mean by the term, that he is worth no more than a heap of filthy lucre? If either of t hese be the exclusive meaning, it is to say the least, extremely one-sided. ' t It has been leared that the integrity of the Union would suffer at some future day, on account of the vast extent of our Territory; but this danger will, we hope, be happily obviated by the wonderful improve ment ill the rate of travelling which we now possess and whih is constantly progressing. Mankind will always be more friendly and more refined, where free intercourse and exchange exists. The wish of the amorous hero in the old play, is nearly fulfilled. .Ye Gods! annihilate but space and time, And make two lovers happy! No department of literature deserves to be more warmly recommended to the perusal of the young than that of hiography. The principle of imitation which is such a prominent feeling in the minds of youth, finds something upon which it can model itself, when the noble map of a great and good life is out stretched before it. History deals too much in gene ralities, and employs itself loo much in the outward and dazzling show of pomp. and circumstance, to af ford nourishment for the aspirations of the ardent but inexperienced. But biography combines the most gratifying amusement with the severest truth it lays open the hidden springs of great actions, and di vested of the repulsive glare which pervades the vast puppet-show of life, it instils virtuous ambition and patriotic feelings. It is very desirable that every truly great man should write his own life, in his own style. The few biographies of this sort which we possess, rank among the most invaluable legacies which genius ever bequeathed to the world. A most useful -apparatus has been invented in London, which may be used for freshening salt-water The miseries so frequently undergone by the crews of vessels, upon the wide ocean, without any resource for allaying thirst, may thus be most happily pre vented. The instrument is one of most simple con struction, and proceeds upon the well known natural principle, that the steam arising from salt-water is perfectly fresh. A stove is placed beneath a reser voir of salt-water, the steam arising from which pas ses through a pipe. At the end of this pipe is a trough of cold water, by contact with which, the steam is condensed into water, and fails into a reser voir containing a quantity of fine sand which serves to purify it. The water thus obtained is said to be as good as spring water. UNITED STATES BANK. The Richmond Enquirer, in an article on the Bank of the United States, says: " We understand, however, that the mischievous power of the United States Bank, is no longer an abstract question. We warn the National Intelli gencer that researches have been recently instituted, mark not through Mr Amos Kendall? and dis coveries made, of a secret service fund, or drafts, and vouchers, of such a character, going to sap the integrity of the press, as will probably astonish and startle the public. But, when the curtain shall be raised, it will be time to say more." We do not like this practice of inuendoing, hinting and generally and indefinitely charging, which is so much in vogue. Nevertheless, let the "discoveries" alluded to by the Enquirer be brought to light as speedily as possible. If they are of the nature expres sed, we 6hall not support the bank in its wrongdoing, biit aid in exposing such nefarious proceedings to the indignation of this people. We are not the partizans of the bank are free to condemn as to applaud act towards it as we do in all public and private matters.

The charge is palpable and direct: "a secret service fund" is "discovered" " draf ts" "vouchers'-which will "astonish and startle" the public, and affecting the " integritv of the press." The independent editor of the Alexandria Gazette is disposed to, pause; well he may! We told him, some time since that we might pull together. WThat we said before, we repeat:, the objec?ion to the U. S. Bank lies deeper thai tho constitution lies in the constitution of human nature !

To check powerto distribute power is our only safe-guard, is our only safety. All monopolies are odious; all corporations are with out souls all are more or less dangerous all must be WATCHED. The U.

Mister Editor, How the dickens could you git togeth er so many ill mannered people in that thair town o' yourn L,asi pea-piantm uncle Zeb said to me, Jess said he, when we've laid by the corn, epose we go to umi uiair ncwucm, una see wnat sorter looking place it is I've hearn Squire Tweedle tell so much about it, I've a raal curositytosee the place. Dun uncle Zeb ! said I, for I had a raal eaching to see the rale road, and the colery, which the squire was always a tellifj of. -Well sho enuff the other day, me and un cle Zeb hitched Dobbin to the big pea cart, and set tin little. Benny Dawson astraddle on him, we driv rite off for town, After ridin one day and a piece of another, we begin to see a nation site o' houses on both sides -of the road and sich a site o' cross roads I ne ver did see. Look here, uncle Zeb, said 1, is this here Newbern town 7 I dont know, Jessy, said he, becase I never seed it. I look'd along the road, and, I seed a teller a stepnin of it off so I hollered rite outtohim- look here, mister, who lives in all these ere houses? tie turned round, he did, and begin to laff like the dickens look here, mister, whare did you larn your manners, you grin worse 'an squire Tweedle's old houn. With that I thort the cretur would split his sides. I looked at uncle Zeb, and foundd that he was a snickerin, and little Ben Dawson, for his part, was fairly a ripin it out. With that, I got so mad, I jist riz upouten the cart like, and let Dob bin hav it for about a hundred yards, as hard as I could rip. I looked up, and what should I see but a great shed and a whole turno' horses and carts standi n rite in the way. I seed there was no chance of gittin by 'em in the main road, so I jist gin Dobbin another crack, and wheeled him rite intef a by-path, which I calcelated would lead inter the main road agin. Dobbin wheeled inter the path about quick, I tell you, but he hadent gone more 'an about ten yard, before he brort rite up agin the side of a fence and throwd me inter a grate heap o' cockle shells, and pitched little Benny Dawson inter an old hogsit ! Igot up, I did, and sho enuff some tarnal fool had put a ' fence rite across the road. Bom-bv I seed a feller come sneakin outer the nearest house, and he axt me what 1 wanted thair in his yard. By this time, Benny Dawson begin to crawl up outen the hogsit, and begged the feller for gimminy's sake .to tell him whair he was. Whair should.you be but in Newbern, said he, and if you back your horse out inter the street, you can fasten him to the markit hous. The way I backed Dobbin out inter the main road agin, want to fool, and I soon hitched him to a great shed, where I seed three wimin sellin a whole nation o' gingercakes and watermillions. As soon as I hitched the cretur, I turned round to uncle Zeb, and said to him, uncle Zeb, spose you stay here, and let nie and Benny go and buy them horse shoes, and try to hear somethin about the rale road and the colery. Uncle Zeb agreed, and me and Benny starts rite off down the road. We hadent gone fur, before we seed a whole passle o' men torking about the rale road, and 1 heerd one feller say it was goin to run a-1 the way to Roily ! " Look here, Mister," said I, " whair's that are Roily you are a tellin of?" " Dont you know whair Roily is?"said he, " why I rather guess its nigh on to a hundred and twenty miles froin here." " By the hoakies," said.l, " and is he rale road a goin to run all the way to Roily ? Well, now, Mis ter, I raly thort Squire Tweedle's nag Ball, could run about rite, but lor he cant hold a candle to that are rale road. When do you think its e-tart, Mister ?" a game to " Look here, stranger " said he, "didentyou know the rale road fell into the river the other dav, and got rlrownd ?" I " Lors, Mister, you dont say so why I cum all the way here from home, to get a site of it; I've hearn the squire tell of it so often." With that he broke out inter a great horse laff, and made me as mad as the nation but I walked off, and didint say nothin. We hadent gone more 'an about twenty yards further, before I seed a little boy a settin on some steps. Darlin, said 1, can you tell me whair I can fine some horse shoes ? Yes, sir, said he, jest turn round that corner, and keep down the street till you cum to a big house, and you'll fine shoes a plenty, I'll warrant ye. Twant long before we reached the house, and we went rite inter it. By the hokiesl never seed so many shoes before in my born days, and I kep a lookin and a lookin, till a man who was a standin behin a great box,axt me if I wanted any thing. Lors, mister, said I, whair in the nation did you get sich a site o' shoes? I declare they are of all sorts and sizes. Now here's a shoe I jest can bairly get my thura inter, and I wish I may be treed if them are pair up thair, aint big enuff for equire Tweedle's old man Bob. The feller never said nothin, but I seed him stoopin down, and he pulled out a pairo' shoes, and said, mister, you ortlo buy these ere shoes for your wife they are the rail prunelle. No, mister said I, I dont want none of these shoes I see here. Haint you no horse shoes ? Rite strate I seed the feller's nap was risin, so I and Benny made tracks in a raiL streak. We kep on till we cum to one of them air pleggy cross roads, and thair I seed a feller leanin up agin tho corner pickin his teeth. Mister, said I, if you aint toobizzy, I wish you'd tell me whair the colery is ? Turn round the corner, said he, (looking sorter side ways at me like,) and keep down to the river. Away we streaked it agin, and 'twant long before we got down to the warf. That minit I looked down the river I seed somethin fairly a tairin the water up, and wheezin like a feller with the croup, only twas iligh upon as loud as a trumpit. Look here, mister, said I to a young man, is that are the colery ? Yes sir, said he. Lord what a varminty thing it is, said I, why it's a site bigger 'an uncle Zeb's barn. What makes it brethe so hard? air they a tryin to drown it, like they did the rale road ? I looked down the river agin, and the tarnal thing was a comin rite strate up to the plaCe whair we wair all a standing Lord ! Lord I how me and Benny streaked it, for Uncle Zeb's cart. I cotched the bridle, I did, and throwin it over Dobbin's neck I had little Benny Dawson astraddle of him in no time and then jumpin inter the fore part'bf the cart, me and little Benny jest pealed it inter Dobbin about rite. I told uncle Zeb what a varmint that colery was, and we all three jest poured it inter Dobbin from the word "go," and we went a ripstavin, I tell you. I hope you'll larn them fellers in that town o' yourn some manners if you will, and will drive away that varmint of a colery too, I will be down agin, and take a better look.
