V 6t if It A1EIG3X nGISISP- TUESDAY, MARCH 30, 1824, The Superior Court for this 'ounty, commenced vesterday, Judse Paxton presiding. We caHnot certainly say, whether any of the prisoners ;onfined in Jail, pn charges of a capital nature, will come to. trial, though it jshighly probable they will. If they, do, but few civil causes can be disposed of, for trie criminal docket is a dark one! It is stated in the last Star, that Mr. ! i t Chawford will shortly retire from the Presidential contest, and leave the palm to be disputed between Gen. Jack son, and Mr. Adams. The Editors of the Star, assert that this will be the case, and .were they ever mistaken in their political calculations ? Have not all their predictions been verified ? For instance, did, not' they declare positive ly, a lew months; since, that the undi vided vote of New-York would be gi ven to Mr. Calhoun and is it not now an ascertained fact, that Mr. Criwford will obtain the entire vote of that great fetate ? Did they not as strenuously in sist, that Pennsylvania wouHl, to a man, vote fur their fav orite as President -and iit the late 'Com ention t llarrisburg, was he scarcely nominated for Vice- President ? Haie they not faid claim, in succession, to every State in the Union, from Maine to Louisian,a for the Army Candidate and has he ever been ablelto count certainly but one State ? Have they not repeatedly inti mated, that lr.j Caihoun would be the next Presidentand having shameful y deserted him. do they not now advo cate the 'claims of another ? . Vhen the Editors can reconcile these nconsisten'cies, then and not until then, shall we, believe that Mr. Crawford, iyho is. assured of the united electoral votes of New-York, Virginia, North Carolina, Georgia, and Delaware, will relinquish his claims to a post, for which, by "nature and education, he ems so eminently qualified.; The Richmond Cnquirer states, that the nuniDcr ot jMemoers oi tue Jjegis lature of- Virginia, who assisted, in formiug the Electoral Ticket in favor of Mr. Clay, was smaller than we had jsupposed. The Enquirer also says, after noticing j the Meetings intha State favorade to Mr. Jackson and Mr. Adamsj that " ail this is Move's 44 labor lost.' It is utterly unavailing. "No one, who-is the' least acquainted " with the sentiments of the great mass of the people, can for a mo "meht doubt, -! Virginia will vote for Mi Crawford." Lexington Uepnrter. writer in the Reporter strongly recommends. Mr. Clay for the President, but very liber ally and candidly' speaks of Mr: Craw ford in the foi lowing manner : 34 In AVm.- H. C'rawtord a nation's destiny may be safely reposed. Undaunted amidst the roughest assaults of vindictive and disap pointed malice, his firmness of character is a sure presage of the safety with which the peo ple's interests may be committed to his keep ing : his inflexible integrity "makes him a vVatchful depositoiy of the .nation honor; atul his vigorous and enlightened mind would point the way to happiness and prosperity.' Why ca nnot all the candid atei in this liberal manner speak of their" rivals ? A, policy of a moie mild and concilia ting character would eventually be ap plauded by all engaged in the contest. At the Superior Court t)f Chatham county, held last week, the Grand Ju rors expressed their sense of the valu able public services of Mr. Crawfohd and his distinguished fitness to fill the Presidential chair, arid, with one dis senting voice, recommended him as best qualified for that high office. Tltfe dis sentient was for , GenVjACxsox. AVe I are favoretl yvith the names, of the Grand Jurors, and it is at their request that we inenuoii uus iacu v. : Tiie detiate, which we mentioned in our last paper, as having incidentally occurred in ; the Senate of the United States, a Jew days since, -an the suirject of C wcu&s has been suddenly jbrpught to a close, .tthe opening of the third day's discussion on the subject, the Vice President required, that gentlemen should confine themselves in debate, to the question actually before the House, to the great idisappointment of thosi who had, resorted to the Senate to wit ness 44 the keen encounter of their wits. " The debate on the nierits of the main question Svas also terminated, by the indefinite; postponement of the s'e veral amendments, proposed to thi Constitution. The Tariff.- The debate in Coin gress still continues on this bill. The . ' . i ' ' ' '!-." discussion has! been chiefly .confined to the detail, and no question lhas yet been taken upon the great principles of the measure, by s which the final result can be ascertained... As there are two iuuulr l ftri'l articles in the bill and each seems to be contested j it is probable that the session will jbe a te dious one : indeed the National Intel 'igencer says, that probably, it jwill not terminate before the first of June. The friends of ithe Tariff bill, are san guine of success, and its adversaries re solved to resist jit to the last. -v-i- i ' I '"L On Thursday last, John Johnson, con victed at the jNew-York Quarter Ses sions, of the niurder of James Murray, received sentence of death. VV" henthe Clerk enquired" if jie had any thing to say, he replied, I u m n t th man that committed the murder. tnat9s dlL" While the Judge was pronouncing the sentence, not a muscle of he prisoner's face, moved, except when he occasion ally muttered something; and at its close, he looked round on the audience with a hardened, unconcern. lAi- the constable, takifig him from the bar of feted to support! him, he said with the utmost indifference, " Praised be Gody I am strong enough yet." He was sentenced to be hanged on the first of April, and, his body to be delivered oyer to the su rgeons for diss ction. f . The National Advocate in speaking of this case, has the following appro priate ana impressive reinarKs-: f The case ot Johnson, sentenced tor the murder of James Murray, is a subject of se rious consideration in several respects. iNo person could possibly have had a fairer trial! He had the ad-va..tage of excellentcounsel ; and every point :of law that could have been turned in his favour, was so done by the Court ; and y&t he was jconvicted on circumstantial i evidence, but by-a chain so compact and firm, that no doubt could have been reasonably en tertained of his guilt. In this we see how much in error a Court and Jury would be led, relying only on pdsitive proof in capita lrcases. Had Johnson made no contesiaon, the circum-i stances a togejlier would have been sufficient to have conv.cted him. In the, case ot the un fortunate man, Murray, it admonishes people never to make an ostentatious display of mo ney, to excite envy and cupidity, or pushi on mischief; and, as to Johnson it fully confirms the eviltendency of avarice, and an inordiiiate love of e-old. Those who testified in his ta- v.our, said they never had heard any thing a gainst him before tiiis crime it is, .therefore, reasonable to infer, that the murder of Murray was not the restilt ot malice or revenge, but was the attendant on robbery.' Lured by his money he robbed bim, and alarmed at the prospect ot detection he murdered him, ;I he. cruelty of the act is without parallel in mo dern times; and grievously will the culprit suffer for it ; an ignominous death ; his fami ly disnacel,- his;children visited with the sins of the father, and flying the country ; ruin and destruction on all sides ; and this niisery arising from the temptation of a few hundred lollars. Let his example operate as a warn ing to the unthinking and jpronigate. I Let men bear in mind, that a good conscience is like precious ointment, and the bread earn, ed by the sweat of the b'ow is more sweet alid palatable than luxuries obtained by fraud and violence. j s CONFERENCE.
