' At the assizes held on the- 10th instant at fiury St. Edmund's, William Buckle, aged 21" years, was capitally indicted for assaulting Leah Warren, by cutting her throat with a knife, with intent to kill.anc murder her. In a second count he was charged with intending to disable her, am in a third count to do her some bodilv harm.

The female whom he was' charged with attempting to murder is a pretty interest ing girl, abjut 18 years of age, and was attired in a very becoming manner. Mr. Malthy, counsel for the: prosecuti on, stated the facts of the case. - The pri soner was in the employment of the father of the girl, and paid his addresses1 to her. Previously to Michaelmas last, 9he was persuaded by some of her relatives to dis continue his addresses. He was extreme ly distressed at th's determination on her part ; and having seen the young wooian with another young man, some few days afterwards, he was driven to a state ef you ? I would rather, they would say it to me ; for 1 would rather lose every drop of blood in my body than see a hair of your head wronged."

Isshl.no; the prisoner was then gone iforward ; I walked with El' Hunt and oiye of my sisters to meet my brother and sister ;; ihe prisoner saw in e walking with Eli Hunt, and said to me, "so you would come I will go forward." The prisoner went 'on and I followed him, & did not see him till half past 6 o'clock. when he came to the meeting service, which was Ijeld at my father sjiouse i my father was noVthe preacher, nor the per son who performed the service ; after the service I was with the prisoner, for half an hour ; I went to my uncle's to sleep, and on going into the.yard that evening. I saw the prisoner passing ; he called me, and I went to him ; he asked me whether I would go to Bacton on Tuesday ' night to the fair : I said that my sisters and bro ther were going on the Monday, and I should have to go with them ; he said, that notwithstanding my.engagement with my brother and sisters on Monday, he hoped I would go with him on the Tues day ; about half past 5 o'clock on Moo day morning I sawithe prisoner again by appointment ; I -was going from my un cle's to wiy fathers ; the prisoner had promised to meet me and see hie home ; but he came into my uncle's yard before I got up ; he accompanied me about half way homey' and at that tune the conver sation was renewed as to going'with him on the Tuesday evening ; he said that he hoped I would go witlrhJm, and I said I would j he said that he thought 1 was old enough to please myself ; he came into my father's house about an hour and a half after I had arrived at home ; I went down to Brad well, auti be followed me : ty in it than that of any person: he had ever before' seeu, standing in His most pe rilous situation ; on the other side, wa-this- young woman, giving her evidence fairly, not allowing the feelings of tier strong affection to influence her testimo ny.

Perhaps the in terposition was thoughtful and kind, and intended to prevent the ill consequences of too hasty and precipitate a union be tween them. She w as still affectionately attached to him, and he returned her af fection-with' equal truth and sficnty.

The prisoner was then acquitted ; and thevoung woman clasping her hands and smiling pleasure , and gratitude, through her tears, fell into the arms of a person near her into a swoon.

'Die con-i stables, appalled by the aspect of the nsicmbUd multitude, after some hesita tion told the Judge it was more than their lives were worth to "execute his order. Judge Chase immediately sprang from the bench, directed the Clerk to enter Samuel Chase as a-constable, and then, approaching the prisoners, bid them fol low him, ordered the crowd to make way fur the constables, and conducted them, without opposition or difficulty, through t!e mass of the astonished citizens to their place of confinement. In all these cases, superiority and success were found ed upon close observation and study of the human mind, arid of the causes which affect and control its operations. A correspondent of the National Intel ligencer, who has travelled through most of the SouthernStates and through Flori da, makes some interesting observations on the' diseases of those countries. He alludes to the theory of Dr. Cartwrigh', who, on observing the sudden appearance nf nn enidemic. at Natchez, immediately !iftAr thp .'cutting down of the streets of that town, leaving steep banks on each side, published his Views in relation to the cause, attributing the epidemic to mineral exhalations.
