The Boston Post re marks that from the delusive circumstance that the Jury did not make their appearance for a considerable period after the opening of the Hall, an impression that they had come to a con fu sion favorable to the prisoners, or, at leasy they could not agree, became very prevalent throughout the assembly; but at half-past el ven tne Jurors were ushered into the court, w ith the sentence of death so legibly and solemnly written on their countenances, as to extinguish in an instant, the faintest sUmmenn||of hope lor the* majority of {the accused. Judge btorfwas not Arisen? when the Jury came in and a fur »w Period of breathless suspense of fifteen mi nuteToccurred, till the prisoners’ roll and the "U f| were called. The prisoners were then rolled one by one, and the verdict of the Jury was declared to each separately in the following manner, viz: CfcrJt.-Gentlemen of the Jury nave you agreed upon your verdict? °Jaru.—We have. Clerk.— Who shall speak for you/ turn.—Our foreman. The prisoners were then directed severally to rise as they were called and receive the verdict of the jury. The Capt., Pedro Gibert, was the first n lined. He arose, raised his hand, and re garded th -jury with a firm countenance and a CUrk—.Jurors look upon the prisoner; prison er lo >k upon the jurors. How say you gentlemen r:the prisoner at the barJPedro Gibert, guilty or no gailiy? The .nine verdict was pronounced against De S*. (die mute.) Ruiz, (Ihecarpenter) «»wr«, Castillo, Garcia and Montenegro. But Costa, (the cabin buy.) /Verier, (the ne-ro )S'""®! l-atm,,. and Velasquez, were declared NOT guilty. After having delivered the verdict of the Ju ry the foreman read to the court the following recommendation to mercy. _ “The sympath.es of the jury have been strong ly moved in behalf of Bernardo De Soto on ac count of his generous, noble, and self sacri ficing conduct in saving the lives of more than seventy human beings, constituting the Passen gers and crew of the ship Minerva; and they desire that his case should be presented to the merciful consideration of the Government. jud^e Story replied that the wish ofthe jury would certainly be complied with, both by the Court and the prosecuting officer. Mr. Hillard, (says the Gazette,) then rose and moved that Nicholas Costa, Antonio Ferrar, Do mingo de Guzman, Juan Antonio Portana, i*nd Joseph Velasquez, be forthwith discharged with °UThe court granted their discharge, and the five men were informed through their Interpre ter that they were at libeity to go where t y pleased. They then put on their hats and left the Court Room with a light step. A .cent commenced at this period, which though insuffi cient to excite the sympathy of the concourse of spectators towards men. who, after a long and open trial, have been fully convicted of perhaps the greatest offence in the catalogue of human c ,ne_could not but excite the feelings of all present in a powerful degree The convicted oartiea, finding themselves left to the aondem nanoT of the law, rose one by one’ a"d eJ* pressed their knowledge of their unhappy' st ation, in rapid and passionate exclamations. De Soto excited the most attention by turning to the spectators and with an ,,1\Pl°nno pression while the tears flowed down his cheeks addressing them in accents, which, though unintelligible to his auditors, conveyed a meaning which could not he misunderstood. Ruiz repeatedly struck the wood before him, and spoke loud and vociferously,exhibiting h°*cvcr the same hardened expression which he has WOm throughout the trial. Some apprehens on of violence on the part ofthe prisoners seemed to •prevail, but they quietly submitted to be hand cuffed and led out of Court. The sentence of death will be pronounced on Monday next, 10 which lime the Court adjourn ed. i— MOKE INDIAN MURDERS. Inman Murders—and probable W*R*_^he st earn bo .t Warrior arrived at this port on Sa tir lay from Praire du Chien. We are sorry to le mi as we do by her, that the Indians in that region have again been engaged in hostile acts, that they portend a serious termination. A 2 1 since, a party of the Sacs and Foxes attacked a party or lodge of the Menominees, u ,on Grant River, and killed three persons. The murderers were, however, (it was ascer tained at Rock Island,) delivered up by keo kuc, to a detachment of United SUM. soldier,, under command of Capt. y on board ol the steamboat Winnebago, then as vending the Mississippi ttoaufo* ol bc' ^O^d^V^sKetnva.'oftheWa, rior at Praire du Chien, another massacre took Xce byTparty of the same tribe oflnd.ans On an island about three miles abo>[*.tbe .p,aJ" re a lodge of Winnebagoes was established, t wis occupied at the time by women and chil dren only—the warriors being absent on a hunt ing excursion. Suddenly, the Sac and F party made their appearance before the lodge, fired into, tomahawked, and scalped ten of the inmates. But one of the Sac warriors lost his life and that was by the hand of a Winnebago boy about fifteen years of age. The youth was standing at the door of the lodge, between a voun^er brother and sister, when two of the warriors made their appearance, and fired up on them Recollecting, instantly, that an old gun remained in the lodge loaded, he procured S and waited the return of the loe, who had re “iLi for the purpose of re-loading iheir guns. treated lor inep k him, he took a VCrte.matSneof them, Sred, and the ta rt went through the heart of his enemy.

A de r,MKm»nt of troop, wa, immediately ordered out in punmU of the morderere bu^a f^ a, known, without succe*. The Winneoa„oes, is said, had determined on retaliation, and their warriors were already collecting. Their foe, it is also known, are ready to receive them—ha vim* been recently arming and equipping them selves lor fight. Towards the Winnebagoes, all parties of the Sacs and Foxes have an un dying hatred. They view them as having been the cause, by their bad counsels, of all the ca lamities brought upon them by the late war, and as having acted a treacherous and infamous part at the termination of it. Many circum stances concur to make it more than probable, that, should a conflict take place, it will be a long and bloody one.—St. LMutiJlepublican. THE MUKDEBESS SENTENCED. Sentence of death was pronounced on Wed nesday, 26th ult. by Judge Stephen, at the Marl borough Court, (Prince GeorgesCounty, Ma ryland,) on a negro girl Judith, the murderess of the children of Doctor Bayne, in an impres sive and solemn manner. A profound silence reigned in Court, when the Judge addressed the youthful prisoner on the heinousness of her crimes in the following pathetic strain: “You have been indicted, tried, and found guilty of a murder of the most cruel and aggra vated character; a murder attended by circum stances which shock every tender and sympa thetic feeling of a human heart. In the perpe tration of this enormous and diabolical crime, for which you are about to suffer, and for which you will so soon have to account to your God, no one palliating or extenuating circumstance is to be found. A helpless, innocent, and un offending child, towards whom, it might reason ably be supposed, you could not entertain even one unkind feeling, you have consigned to an untimely and premature grave; not even his tender years, his infantine and unsuspecting confidence, were sufficient to arrest the execu tion of your cruel and fiendlike purpose, or stay your hand when about to offer to him the dead ly poison. By the commission ot this awffil and inhuman act you have, let us hope, trans lated him from a world of trouble to a seat of glo ry in the mansions of eternal rest, and given to him the society of angels and of the saints in light. He, we have every reason to trust, is hanpy, because he is gone from this sinful sublu nary world before he was infected by its vices, or stained by its pollutions: and to the bleeding hearts of his weeping and disconsolate parents, whom he has left behind to mourn their irrepa rable loss, this consideration should administer the balm ot comfort and consolation. No more, ’tjs true, can they meet him on this side of the grave; no more can they bestow upon him the tender and endearing caresses of parental affection; but let them not mourn as those who have no hope—let them remember that lor these earthly blessings he has obtained in ex change the happiness of Heaven. But for you, poor unhappy sinner, but little hope of that joy and felicity can be entertained, unless that short interval of time, which remains to you on this side of the grave, should be unremittingly em ployed in making every atonement in your pow er to the violated laws of your offended God.— It now only remains that I perform the painful and solemn duty, which your conviction has de volved upon me; painful and distressing, I can truly say, it is; for cold indeed, must be his heart, who can look upon so sad a spectacle as you now present without sympathizing with you in your awful situation. The sentence of the law is, [here the firmness of the judge yield ed, and in a faltering tone he proceeded] that you be taken from hence to the place from whence you came, and from thence to the place ot execution, where you are to be hung by the neck until you are dead—and may the Lord Al mighty have mercy upon you soul.” The girl being sentenced to death in this case, was of course not tried tor the murder of the other children.__ Biot and Mutiny.—A riot and mutiny took place one day last week on hoard of the ship Waverly, below, which has been a subject of conversation tor several days. So far as we have been able to learn the particulars, it ap pears to have been an unexpected affair to the officers, and was carried on by those concern ed in a spirit of wanton mischief. It commenc ed on Thursday, the 7th inst. about noon. The ship’s sails had been loosed and unbent, and or ders given lor stowing them below, when the first symptoms of riot appeared. One of the crew William Gulickson, began beating a dog on the poop deck, and on being remonstrated with by the second mate, returned very abusive language, and finally struck him. Three more of the crew, Holbrook, Tabor and Wilson, ran to the assistance of Gulickson, and they all com menced beating him. The noise and scuffle brought up the first mate, and on his interfering, and demanding the cause of this assault, four others of the crew came up. They all swore they would do no more duly on board of the ship, and went forward in a body. Soon after the cry of fire was called from the forecastle, and flames and smoke were seen coming up the hatchway. A burning bed was brought up and thrown overboard. This drew the officers for ward when the cry was made to seize the boat, and a rush was made for that purpose. The first second mates endeavored to keep them back, and protect the ship’s property, but were knock ed down and beaten senseless. In the mean time, six of the rioters took possession of the boat and shoved off; leaving two of their associates on board, one of whom w’as holding the first mate These two remonstrated wilti the others for abandoning them, but no attention was paid ^TtfeTe particulars we gather from the account given by the first mate. The Captain was in the city, but immediately on hearing of the riot, hurried on board. On Saturday the w ashmg ton cutter arrived in the Bay from Pensacola, and afforded assistance to arrest the two re maining mutineers, who were put in irons and brought up to town in the cutter. Their names are Gulickson and Wilson.—Nashville Rep. burning of snow hill. We learn that a most calamitous fire occur red on Monday night last at Snow Hill, Mary land It consumed forty houses, among which are the Court House, eight stores, two hotels, dtc. The records and papers in the Court House have been preserved. The fire is said to have originated in a cabinetmaker’s shop. Since the above was prepared, we have been favored with the following letter, from one or the Executive Council of Maryland, confirming the account of this truly melancholy disaster. Balt. Cr#£. “Snow Hill, Nov. 28th, 1834.—Mv dear friend, our village is in ashes—it took fire from a car penter’s shop in the centre of the town. The whole central portion is burnt—every house of every description—all the stores except Jenkin s and John Dennis’s—both the taverns—John Blair’s dwelling, Denwood Williams’s, Ananias Jones’s, Isaac P. Smith’s, E. Dymond’s, George Hudson’s Dr. John R. Purnell’s, Mrs. Due’s, Le win Townsend’s, Lewell Jenkins; all the milli nery, shoemakers, tailors, and all other little shops in the central part of *°wn. Th« Court House is in ashes—it is said, h® that the records and most valuable PaP saved 1 have given you a very imperfect ac count of this most dreadful calamity. 1 ami ex hausted almost to faintness. W hat caJVbe -’/wr United States’ Ship Constellatioh u were very much gratified at seeing tlie o'ffici.i announcement on Monday last, that thi« g vessel, commanded by Captain Head, had rived at Gosport, on the 50th instant, after an!* sage of thirty days from the Mediterranean R our gratification was greatly increased on h. ing officially informed that Mr. I’ersico the t, lian artist, and his statues, intended for our C pitol, were on board this ship, vhich vat 0rd ed to our Nary Yurd. It has been matter of rious regret to the friends of our skilful and dustrious mechanics and ship-wrights. as as to our citizens generally, that the iVashin» ton •Navy Yard, notwithstanding its great ad vantages and recent improvements, should hav remained so long, nothing more than a n er! spectacle for the stranger, a kind of metropoh tan lounge, where employment wasonly afford ed lor a mere handful of our industriousmecha nics. Taking a lively interest in their weifar' and sincerely desirous of seeing the Navy Yard resume at least a portion of its former anicia tion and prosperity, we repeat that we highly gratified in reading tire official announce merit that tne Constellation was ordered to our Navy Yard. We have, however, since learned to the extreme regret of all the industrious me chanics employed in s.nd about the Yard, that the order has been officially countermanded We hope hope, however, it w ill turn out other, wise. If it be true that the Constellation is not to be sent hither, we should be glad to learn from the Globe, or some other official or semi official source, the cause of this countermanded order We respectfully ask for information.

Accordingly the malcontents rushed to the fence, under the shelter of which lay a large body ofthe more quietly disposed—and jumping upon their prostrate companions, thentesprang over and got off. In the morning some tony or fifty hapless animals were found to have been trampled to death by this desperate process. Verdict of the Crow ner—“Died in the wool';’ Nantucket Inijuirer.

IN that long train of diseases which seem to grow with the growth of civilized society, Consumption takes the lead in its relentless inroads upon human life; yet his dreadful disorder is easily overcome in its earlier stages. It is only when neglected that it ar rives at the terrific maturity wlil-h so often baffles the sagacity of professional science. An obstinate cough is the customary forerunner of the pulmonary con sumption Improper neglect in the timely adminis tration of simple and salutary remedies, is sure to be reproved by a dreadful succession of consumptive symptoms -oppression of the breas',- greenish and bloody spittle; ulcerated lungs and hectic fever; shri veiled extremeties, and general emaciation of the whole body; prostration of strength; flushed cheeks; swollen feet and legs; and at last, in the lull posses sionof the mental faculties, and while hope still whis pers her flattering tale—fold exti entities, and a pre mature death. For the various stage* of this complaint, one of the most approved remedies ever vet discovered is DR. RELFE’S ASTHMATIC PILLS. This exceedingly powerful, and vet equally safe and innocent preparation, has effected thorough and rapid cures upon patients supposed to have been far advanc ed in a confirmed Consumption, and who have exhibit ed the appearances which usually indicate a fatal ter mination of'he disorder. As the Pills require in ordinary cases no confine ment, they may be administered with confidence and safety to all ages and classes of people. Unexampled success hat hitherto attended their administration hi a great variety of cases; and the proprietor can refer to a multitude, which testify to their efficacy in reviving the emaciated victim Irom the bed of disease, and re storing him to the blessings of accustomed health and activity.
