Laro, neat the mouth of Oak Or ubard Creek, gave a new and ab~ -otlgaspect to the questionl The.. description .of that body, a published by the Coroner wh held an inqLest over it, induced belief that it was the body of Wn Morgan. Our committee decide to bold another inquest. Impres ed with the importanue and r( sponsibility of the question. gave public notice 'of our inter i'tiob, and personally inyited severt citizeua who had known :Morga to he 'presen't.

Whei tbe-coffin- was opened the bod disclosed -.the pecliarities d scribed by' Mrs. Morgan and D Strong. This second- iquest and thei ex aminations .of the.body pr9ceede in open day, and in the present of asons and Anti-Masns, no one of- whom dissented from tb Coroner's jury, -by which-tbe.bod; ,was unanimously declared to: b that of William Morgan. Mr Morgan, in -her testimony, faile to recognize the clothes. Th body was taken to Batavia, wher it was reinterred, no one a yet expressing any doubt of it identity.

The clothing thu described .nad been in possessio of the Coroner, who testified tha it had not -been seen- either b Mr's. Monrcoe or any, strange from whom she could have ot tained information.

He then. from time to time carried a fooe' to the person. Soon afterward, nea r midnight, he~ was told to have a .boat in readiness.for the Ipu -pose of taking away the man in, te magazine. Several gentle. men arrived in a carriage by whom the man wits Laken trom the magazine and escorted to the boat.

L i ~Dox, Treasurer of the Grand S Chapter, and John Whitney, one I of the recipients of the money, t 'were in court to* establish the & rsnth of the libel. Mr. Dox testi r :ifie that a 'charity tund' bad been -:in trusted to Gen. Gould. John e W,hitney was called to prove that a he received a part of the fund, L, with which, in company with s.

Judge -.anderpoel, in d charging~ the jury..diwelt at length e upon :;he licentjim;ness of the r. press, and called upon the jury to. [ give. exeropiary damage5sto the n -ininrmA and innocent plaintiff. The jury, thus instructed, but with evident relactance, found a verdict of $400'!against me. My offence consisted in asserting a fact, the exact truth of .which would have been established if the testimony had not been ruled out by a monstrous pervertsion of justice. - - Col. Simeon B' Jewelt *of Chirk. son, Major Sanuel Baron of Lewiston, and. John Wbitrly of Rochester pamsed that.eal4'g at' my house. Jewett wait prepared to testify that be fu'riished a car riage fbr those who were convey ing Morgan secretly from Can andaiga 'uto Niagara. John Whit ney was.one of tha. patty. Major Barton. would have testified that he furnished the carriage which conveyed the parny from Lewis ton to Fort Niagara. John Whit hey being uue uf that .party. Whitney would have sworn: that Gould supplied money to euable him to 'escape 'from jUstiU%..' In the. course of. the eening, the ILorgan affair being the principal topic ot con.viraAtiol. C4. Jewett turned to -Wbitney with emphasis and said: John, what if you make a elean bkeast ofit.' Whit ney lo5Lkd i qui:'ir.g - rton who added:, -Go ahead.' Whitney then related in detail the history of Morgan's abduction and fate.. The idea of suppressing Morgan's intended exposure of the secrets of :Masonry was first snggested by a man by the name of Johns. It was discussed in lodges at Batavia, Le Boy, and Rochester., Johns suggested that Morgan should be separated from Miller and placed on a farm in Canada West. For this purpose he was taken to Niagara and placed in the magazine of the fort until arrangements for settling him in Canada were completed, bu-t the Canadian Masons disap pointed them. After several meet. ings of the- lodge in Canada,.oppo site Fort- Niagara. a refusi dto have anything to do with Morgan left his 'kidiappers' greaLly per plexed. . Opportunely . a Royal Arch Chapter was installed at Lewiston. The occasion brought a large number of enthusiastic Masons together. 'Afte labor,' in Masoni- language, they 'retired to refreshment.' Under the ex hilaration ofobampagne and otber viands, the Chiapltain (the Rev. F. H. Oummi ngs of Rochester) was called on for a toast. He' rospond-. ed with peculiar emphasis and in the.lagu~age of their ritual: "The enemies of odr order-May they find a grave six feet deep, six feet long, aud 'six feet due east and west.' immediately after that tosst, which was received with great enthusiasm, Col. 'William King, an officer in our war of 1812, and then a member of Assembly from Niagara county, 'called Whitney of Roebester, Uow ard of Buffalo. Chubbuek of Lewibton, and Gar side of Canada wut o'f the roomi and into a carriage furnished by~ Major Barton.. They were driven to Fort Niagara, repaired to the magazine, an nomed Mor-gan, that the arrangements for sending him to Canada were completed, and tbat his family would so<n follow him. Morgan received' the information cheerfully.and walke d with supposed-friend, to the boat, which was-ro.vdd to the mouth of the river, where a rope was wound around his body, to each end of which a sinker was at t,aehed. Morgan was then thrown overboard. He grasped tbe gun wale of the boat convulsively. Gar,ide, mn forcing Morgan to re-. linquish his bold, was severely bitten. Whitney, in concluding his narrative, said he was now re. lieved from a heavy load ; that for four years he had Dot heard the window rustle or any other no(ise' at night. without thinking the Sheriff was after him. CoL Jewett, looking fixedly at Whit. ney, said : 'Weed can hang you now.' 'But he won't,' was Whit ney's prompt reply. Of course a secret thus -confided to me was inviolably'kept, 'and twenty-nine years afterward, while attending a National Republican Convention at Chicago, John Whitney, who then resided there, called to say that hae maned me to write ont what he once told me about Mor 4an's fate to be signed by him in the presence of witnesses, to be sealed up and published after his :eatb. I promised to do so before leaving Chicago. There was no eisure, however, during the sit. ting of. the Convention, and even befo:-e its final adjoarnment, for oetting what I had told Whitney, hurried t, Iowa, retur~niag by Pay. of.Springfield to visit Mr. Lin ,on. In. the excitement of the annase which followed, and the wecession of the Southern States upon Mr. Lincoln's electio,n, I 3eglected the important duty of ecuring the confession Whitndy was so anxious to make. In -1861 L went to Europe, and while ii0 London wrote a letter' to Whi aey aking him to get Alex. B: Williams, t0en a resident of Chi zago, to -o what I bud soun pardonably neglected. That let ter reached Chicago one week after Whitney's death, closing the last and only chance for the reve lation of that important event. * * * * * ** City and County of New York, s&: Thurlow Weed, being. duly swora, says that the foregoing statements are true.

If we disobey the dictates of our conscience even in .tie more trifling particulars, or allow our selvos to - do what we have some fears may not be quite right, we shall grow more and more sleepy, until the voice of conscience has no longer the power to awaken us. How prone .we are to impute to others motives, which they have not; how easily under such mistakes we .can inflict a terrible wound upon a pure person's feel ings or reputation I - We must walk -softly amid our fellows,-and judge as we would be judged. If a fool knows a secret he tells it because he is 'a fool. If a knave knows one, he. tells it whenever itis his interes to tel it. But women and young nen are very apt to tell whatever so crets they know from the vanity of being trusted. i The Clifton Manufacturing Corn pany has just received an order for 500 bales of their popular shirtings to be sent -to China.

Last Mionday there were two runaways, one~ in town and thes other near.-Major Duncan's, both horses having been frightened by hogs. (Carolina Spartan. The love of display which results in vulgar ostentation is thie result of selfishness, of a desire to excite the envy of others rather than the wish to share benefits with them-an effort to appear great without striving toib great in reality. The high price of life, the crown ing fortune of a man, is to be born tc some pursuit which finds him in em ployment and happiness-whether it be to make baskets, or broadswords, or statutes or songs. Troubles borrowed and stolen out-number by far all others in the world. It is a barren kind of criticismx which tells you that a thing ii wrong. A cheerful face is nearly as good for an invalid as healthy weather. Use every man after his desert and who should 'scape whipping ? Treat all with due respect, and none will think you the worse for it. Self-inspecticon is the only means t< preserve uos from self-conceit. AGRICULTURAL PROSiPERI TY OF 186*.
