A lorge sum of Money Lost or Stolen.-On Thursday the 17th inst, a trunk containing a lurgo sum of money: supposod to bo at lenst $20,000 in cash; with chocks and other securi- tlos for a further amount, was put on bourd the steam: bort bound from this city to Providence, to go from thonee to Boston by the rail roud.- On the arrival of tho car at Boston, tho trunk was missing ?

Pauper. m, A most horrible attorpt at suicido and murder occurred in the lowor partol the city, attha' residence of a highly respectable and wealthy mastar mechanic, on Fuasday ove- ming last | The particulars wore communi- cated to us by an individual progent, undor a atrict pledgo that the names of the parties in- torested should in no caso bo made public thro' our columns; though as nearly twonty por- sons wore prosont at the time of the ocour- zonco, tho whole by this timo must be - protty oxtonsivoly Inown. I6 appems that «on the ovoning in question; the (nmily of the individual roforved to, entertained a sgolect party of intimato friends, among whom wore two young gonllemoen who for some anonths past had maintained a contested and «lubious rivaliy to the hund of tho second of the threo daughters of their host-an accom- plshod and amiable young lady in hor 20th year - Ono of theso is the Foroman to hor fa- ther, ind is roprosontod as a young man eve- xy way worthy of hor choico; the other is a student at ono of the liberal professions, a porson of some talent, porsonal advantages, and progpoctive property, but withal, of a ve- I?» passionaté and roekloss tomporament. It nlso that on tho preceding Sabbath, the young Indy had ‘n-utty directly given the Inttor to undorstand that sho had, by the ad- vice of hor paronts, rided by hor own judg- mont, determined to decline his (urthor atten- tions ag a loyor, though both shoe and they, would at all times be happy to receive his vi- sits as a valuod friend; and that the unhuppy traits of his disposition on that oceasion man- ifostod thomsolves by the rost extravagant rhapsodios of mingled disappointment and jealousy, and oven dark intimations of ro- vongo. - And from the occurronce of 'Pues- day ovening, by which two valuable lives al- most miraculously eseaped being sacvificed to his unbridled passions, it appears that those half frantic declarations wore not meant by liim as ompty: cbullitions of unreal fecling.- During that ovening, amongst other light to- pies of small talle, a question wuroso as to the respective heights of himself and the young foroman, his rival; and to decide the mattor, it was proposed by himsolf; that they should stand up togother, bacle to back, as is the usual mannor of determining questions of that natitro; ard by which a decision might be coma at without further dispute. In a mo- mont thoy hind placed thomselves in that po- sition, and {n less thar a momont afterwards, the company were nearly electrified by the flash of the priming of a pistol which the sta- dont hold in his hand, the muzzle in his mouth, fit a horizontal linc, and the contents of which, liad they exploded, must inovitably hays sont tho two balls which it contained not only through his own hoad, but that of the young gontloman at his back! Tho scone of constornation and confusion which this novel and horrible attempt at self- destruction and murder, at such a time and in such a place, occasioned, may readily bo ima- gined: \ 'The unhappy principal in the trang» notion; on ronlising that his purpose had bean fmstxiutcd by the fortunate failing of the fording to ignite, sunl on the floor powarless and sppirontly Tuanimato, and ho was con- vayod to a (“1&1ng and a physician sent for, who bled Mm, and in the course of an hour he fully recovered his freultios, For a long timo, hawovor, ho rofused cithor to speak: or tohoar those nbout him; but at longth, in an» ticlpation that ho would bo made a prisoner, oxolaimed that ho vas at theiv mare , and thoy might disposo of him as thay pleased.

In several towns in Waldo county, there was not a single opposition vote for governor, whilg the county delegation in the state legisla- ture is democratic throughout as heretofore. The Augusto Ago says: \The federal senators from this county are probabiy elected by a small majority,. Last year they led the democratic ticket upwards of two thousand one _ hundred votes, In Vassalboro, the federal candidate for representative was elected by one majority.

A Revolution at Para, and massacre of the inhabitants.-We learn from Captain Puttlo, from Para, arrived on Friday, that the Ta- pulians (natives) made an attack upon Para on the night of the 14th of August, and suc- ceeded in taking it on the 23d, and made a general massacre of all the white inhabitants they could get at-the majority of which had taken boats und wont to the shipping on the first alarm. - 'The American Consul got on board of the brig Mercator, which sailed sev- en days before for this port, having lost all his effects, and happy to escape with his lifo. The brig was compelled to leave all-her pa- pers. - Commodore Morris of the Brazilian Nuvy, with the force at his command, and an English man-of-war, assisted the Presi- dent in quelling the natives, but without suc- cess. It is supposed the slaughter must have been immenso, as the motto of the Indians was, \Extermination to the Whites,\ and a more complete suck of any city, probably never took place than this instance. The brigs of Malta and George were bound to Maranhaio, full of passengers. - The Brit- ish sloop of war, Race Horse, with all the Tinglish merchants on board, was bound for the same place in a few days. 'The Indiuns had about 150 armed men. 'The Presi- dent bad 300 men under him, ready for ser- vice, and several pieces of artillery, which wore loft unspiked, and were fired from by the natives atthe whites in their retreat.- The British and Portuguese vessels of war cach landed from ninety to a hundred men to assist the authorities, butsceing their pusila- nimity, they embarked again for their vessels. -Jeffersonian. azn irk ___.. 22 Outrage at State Prison-On Saturday last, after dinner, Harvey Griswold, a con- viet became disobedient, und refused to leave his cell with the other prisoners, to go to his work. Information of his conduct havin been conveyed to Capt. Pillsbury, the War- don, he with Mr. Cooledge, tho assistant War- den, repaired to his cell to ascertain the cause. After a little conversation, (Griswold told them he did not feel disposed to work, and that he should not leave his cell; Capt. Pills- bury stepped in and took him by the collar, when a scuffle ensued, during which Griswold drew a knife he had concealed in his cont sleave, and struck at Capt. P.'s head or throat; the blade entered the Captain's left | shoulder, partly on the back, to the depth of one and a halfor two inches, and about four inches long. - Mv. Cooledge in the meantime seized him, and soon received a dangerous cut on the wrist, which bled so profusely that he was compelled to go immediately to the hospital for aid. In the meantime, Capt. Pillsbury was engaged unarmed, with the as- sassin, and received another sovere wound from his knife, in the thigh. - What appears very remarkable is, that Capt. P., though he felt something like a shot of electricity when Griswold struck the first blow, did not know that ho was wounded until he had forced Griswold half way to his work. Fecling the blood trickle down lis back, and discover- ing the wound in his thigh, the convict was immediately remanded to his cell, where he will romain until the next session of court; to he tried for the offence. Weare pleased to learn, that although both oflicers were severely wounded, they are consiqered out of danger.-Eurtford Times. The Ruling Passion -English travellers say that a conversation never takes place in the United Statos, in which the word \dollar\ does not occur. On this point we are some- what sceptical, but the following steamboat conversation will serve to illustrate the alle- ged propensity. The dramatis persone are three live yan- kees-the subject the New-York Moon hoax. \Well says onc, turning a quid in his mouth and looking mighty wise, \I cant say but what it is true. Stranger things than that have happoned.

The editor _calls.up0n the world to call at his office and examine a spe- cimen of it, and then decide whother it be corn or not. We opine the poor man has sundry small bills in his desk, 'not worth men- tioning,\ as well as ourselves, and is in hopes some of the less wary ones may be caught in his trap. \He has'nt done faking in\ corn, we imagine.-New Bedford Gazetle. Remarkable appearance of the Sun.-The pre- sent appearance of the disc of the Sun is some- what unusual ; there are to be seen about twen- ty distinct spots on its surface, one of which is very large; and towards the edge of the sun may be seen extensive ridges of whitened eleva- tion, which appear like ranges of mountains., The large dark spot above alluded to, may be seen to change its shape and size while viewing it, thereby fully proving them to be produced by the smoke of volcances. [May be so, and may be not.]-Providence Journal. A dispute has arisen between some of the peo- ple of Charlestown and the fire department of Boston. 'They say-\Though we know it is our duty to do good to our enemies, yet we keep in mind the injunction, cast not your pearls before swine.\ Those who recollect the sobriquet which the Bostonians bestoy upon their Charlestown neigh- bors, will find the lust clause of the quotation particularly pointed.-U.

The subscriber having en- aged in the manufacture of \Rich's Patent Saw Still Dogs,\ after using them in his saw mill in Lockport, and becoming well satisfied that they will add at least twenty per cent to the nett profits of any saw mill, by using them instead of the saw mill Dog now in common use, has no hesitation in offer- ing them as one of the greatest improvements, as a labor-saving machine lately introduced. The fol- lowing is the advertisement of the Patentee: and upon experiment it will be found, that he does not recommend the Dogs as high as they will bear. \RICH'S PATENT SAW MILL Dogs.\ Important to owners of Saw Bills and dealers in Lumber.-The subscribers now offer for sale the above articles, which possess the above advantages over the mill Dog now in general use, viz: 1st. 'The lumber by the use of these dogs; is saw- ed without any stub shot. 24. These dogs are self setting, no attention is required as to the removal of the log to fix the thick- ness of the board or plank to be cut, this being done by the machinery of the dogs, with an accuracy and that cannot be obtained by the usual method of setting by the eye or guage. 3d. It is generally allowed by sawyers who have seen these dogs in opperation, that tle labor of one person is all that is required in a saw mill. dth. By a fair calculation it is considered that about every tenth board is gained in time,; that is to f say, one tenth more lumber can be sawed in a gi- ven time by the use of these dogs, than can besawed by the use of the old fashioned article, or common mill dog. 5th, 'These dogs enable the sawyer tomake an ar- ticle so much more true and even than that gener- ally brought to market, sawed by the use of the old fashioned dog, that it already commands a price a- bove the lumber sawed by the latter method, as will be seen by reference to the advertisement of se- veral dealers in umber. We wish as much as possible to avoid the ridieu- lous practice of puting a patent article, and at the same time give the patent in question a fair recon- mendation, and such a statement of its worth und utility as it fairly merits, and we can feel safe in guarantcering the fulfilment of, We therefore re- spectfully solicit the attention of all who are con- cerned in the making of lumber, to the statements contained in this article, and particularly those made by disinterested persons. 'We, the undersigned, Lumber Merchants in the village of Ithaca, having examined the hnmber saw- ed in the mills in which the above patent dogs are used, do hereby offer to all those who have that quality of lumber to sell in our market, 50 cents per thousand feet on 1st and 2d quality, and 25 cents per thousand feet on 3d and 4th quality, over and above the market price for said qualities of lumber sawed by the usual method, or old fashioned dogs. Williams & Brothers, __ Benj. K. Delavan, E. R. Ives & Co. N. Phillips & Co. Ebenezer Vickery, James O. Towner, B. A. Potter, Harley Lord! Ithaca, March 6, 1824.\ The Patentee says that \one tenth more lumber can be sawed in a given time by the use of these dogs, than can be sawed by the use of the old fash- foned article.\ _ Now this is not saying enough, for by experiment I mm satisfied that one fifth more can be sawed in a given time, than by the old dog: and after thelog is slabbed and thrown down ready for cutting into boards, one third more was sawed, in my mill, than with the old dog. It was tested fair- ly. 'The saw millisa double one; on one carriage was the old dog, and on the other the patent dog, both saws have the same speed, yet the advantage of self setting, and not having to undog the log, caused an actua! gain of more than one third; and besides the lumber was sawed with much greater precision. \ Fill owners in the counties of Livingston, Mon- rog, Genesee,.0r1eans, Erie or Niagara, can -be sup- plied by applying to the subscriber at Lockport.- any purchaser-is not suited with the dogs after ex- periment, no payment will be required.
