Suppose you have to pronounce on the guilt or innocence of a gentleman accused of felony. You u ill naturally doubt whether any gentleman would commit such offences; accordingly, however strong may be the testimony against him, you will, perhaps acquit hi:n—The evidence of your own senses is,, at least, as credible as that of the witnesses; if therefore, your eyesight convinces you that ihe prisoner is a well-dressed person, you have a right lo presume his respec tability; and it.is for you to say whether a re sped able person would be likely to be guilty of the crimes imj ute i to him. In like manner, when you see a shabby-looking fvliow in the dock, charged., for example, with sheep-stealing, the decision rests with you, first, whether or noL that individual is a ragamuffin, and,’second I v, how far it is probable that a man of that de scription would steal sheep. Of course as has been before said, you will always be guided by the evidence; but, ihen, u hether the evidence is trustworthy or not, is a matter for your private, consideration. Yon. may believe it if you choose, or you may disbelieve i t ; and whether gentlemen of the jury, you will believe it or disbelieve it, uiil depend orrthe constiiution of vour minds. l,f your minds are so constituted that you wi>h to find the prisoner gu ilty, per haps you will believe it; if they happen to be so consiiiuted that you desire to find him not guilty why then, very likely, jou will disbe lieve* it. You are lo free your minds from all pa&sion ami pnjudico, if you can, and, in ihat case, yo u r .judgment will be unbiassed; but if you cannot, you will return a verdict a c c o r d ing ly-. It is not, strictly speaking, for you to con-, sider wlnti will be the effect of your verdict; but if such a consideration s h o u ld occur to y ou, and you canppt help attending to it, that verdict will be influenced by it to a c e rtain .extent.

Y o u may arrive at unanim ity by fair discussion, or by s o me o f you starving . o u t the others, or b y tossing up; and yoqr conclusion by w h i c h ever of these processes arrived at, will be more or less in accordance vvjth y o u r o a t h s — Y o u r verdict m a y be r i g h t ; it is to be. hoped it w i l l ; it may bo w r o n g ; it is to be hoped it will not.

T h e estate was sold after t h e death of the be nevolent Englishman, and yielded the sum of $508 318. which was paid into the T reasury of thd United Slales. December 2 d, 1828. On the meeting of Congress at the present session, the inteiest due the Smithsonian bequest by the Treasury of the United States, amounted to one hundred and eighty-two thousand dollars. “T h e whole fund, according to the N ew Bedford Mer- cury. will then am ount to six hundred thousand dollars. We have added six per cent, interest from the date the fund was paid into the Treas- ury.

Among tiie means of usefulness contemplated in the bill, is tbe disiribution of such fluits, plants, seeds and vegetables, as shall be found useful, and adapted to nny of our soils and climates, so that the people in every part of the Union may enjoy the benefits and advantages of thp experi- mems rn.'ide by the Institution.
