Charleston Courier. Twenty years have transpired since the State of Indiana was admitted into the Vnion. During the time from that to the present period its population has increased from GO, 000 to 000,000. In 1 SI6 it had one member of Congress?it has seven now. A State law was passed last winter appropriating $10,000,000, for the construction of canals, railways and Macadamized roads which are intended to intersect every part of the State. The routes have been already surveyed and a portion of the work commenced, and the Indiana Democrat expresses its confidence that all the works contemplated by the bill, will be commenced and completed. . ... y /-n l; T . J T.VT _/! . "Acquittal of jwoinsim.?.urigi; iju?.nua charged the Jury at great length, recapituluting the testimony, instructing the Jury upon points of law and the inferences to be made from the various facts and circumstances which were developed in the course of the trial. He charged them particularly in reference to the testimony of the dissolute females, who had given evidence in the case, directing them that whenever the testimony of Mrs. Townsend, Emma French and Elizabeth Salters came in collision with that of reputable witnesses, the former should be set aside and disregarded. At half past 12 o'clock, the jury retired: and in 15 minutes thereafter returned into # court with a verdict of NOT GUILTY. The father of Robinson, who was lately tried and acquitted, in New York, is thus described by a correspondent of the Philadelphia Gazette: "An aged gentleman with a countenance intelligent and anxious, admitted within the bar, was pointed out to me by my friend as the father of Robinson.? He gazed stedfastly at his young and unhappy son, with feelings such as only a parent could appreciate on such an awful occasion. "Poor boy!" he repeated often to himself, as I could percicve by the motion of his lips. As the selection of the jury went on, his emotions overcame him; the big tears were wrung from his agon. ized heart, and fell thickly along his \ choek. He turned awav to a corner of the ^ apartment, and, shunning the public gaze, looked out of the court room window then V? ^ cum anu irictvnu? ?nn me moisture ironi the multitude present.

Rail Rood Accident.tt-As the 3 o'clock , passenger train from Lowell was coifting to ; ! town on Tuesday week, when about tlin-c , : miles this side of Lowell, and travelling at I i i | its greatest speed, an axle of the tender | ; broke, a iid of course threw the tender and; ; several of the cars from the track. The' I tender was broken in pieces, and two of the ; | passtngcre.irs were much injured. It is } markahle that, although the train was at that moment travelling with great rapidity, prob- j ably exceeding the rate of sixtv miles an i 1 j O # . . . i hour, no person received any bodiiy injury. ; j ?Host on Advertiser, ''Luring tlie last week there was seen j j coming down the Rhine, from Audernach, j j one of those immense raits lately found do- j scending this river with emigrants.

How to cheat the Doctor.?Some years since, a physician was called to a young woman very sick. After a careful examination, lie left two kiuds of powder to be given to her alternatively. One of the powders contained opium, and, when adioinis- : tered, produced quiet to the patient. The i next powder was somewhat nauseating, and ! the patient was less quiet under its operation. A convention cf the women in the j neighborhood was held, and addressed bv j onexT their number in this wise : You see , j just how it is; the doctor must have a living, i j and must get it by his trade; one kind of i powder makes her better, the other makes I her worse, Iflio only gave her the bad i j kind, he would soon kill her, and the good | I alone would soon cure her; So that, in eitli- j I or |,f? would have hut a small bill: ' | that is why he gives two kinds. Now let us j j act according to common sense, in disregard 1 j of the doctor's orders, whose interest it is to j keep her along; let us give her only the good 1 I powders. This proposition was well rc- ; | ceived, and, alter an amendment at the sug- j gestion of another, who proposed giving two j of the good powders at a time, was adopted. ; The patient was easy, and slept quietly uii- ; der the operation; but she never awoke.? : Bangor Advertiser. j j Hoir the}t do things in St. Louis.?A ! : letter gives the following description of a , | duel which took place some time since j in St. Louis, of which the writer was an j j eve-witness: 44 A Spaniard and a Frenchman, who j have long heen accustomed to tramping on t the mountains, on arriving at this place went out to settle an affair of honor. The spot selected lor tire purpose was an open square in the suburbs or the city. When ! all parties were ready and stripped Ibr the , occasion, with two large Howie knives, an ; ' instrument about twelve iuches in length, ' and an inch and a half wide at the hilt, with 1 t two edges, tapering to a sharp point, and; F j the word 4 ready' was given, both rushed ' i to the contest! After parrying tho^e dead, ! ly weapons, and guarding and plunging j ; j some half minute, the Frenchman made a j strike at the Spaniard, and succeeded in , cutting open the abdouten, so as let out ah tin; bowels ! At the same time the Span-1' iard plunged his knife about ten inches in j j the breast of his antagonist, who imtncdi-1. aiely yielded up the ghost, with a deep h groan. The Spaniard survived some | I hours. With me the scene created the J j most wretched feelings of horror, but with 1 nuuiy of the spectators it served only for a j subject of discussion, as to which showed i the most skill; in short, which showed the j < most sleight in killing his fellow man." 1 Green County (Ohio) Gaz. ! j Huntingdon, (Pa,) Junk 1. j! Melancholy Accident.?On Wednesday 1 morning, as the canal boat Pacific, on her f downward passage, was passing through i the dam, just abo\e this place, she was met i by another boat, the Itosanna. The boats ! struck, and the sudden sliock knocked j overboard a young girl aged about 11, by j 1 he name of Sarah flicks, a passenger in ; [ he Pacific. An elder brother of the name ; r of Jacob, aged 18, immediately plunged in * o tlie rescue of his sister. After vainly j 1 struggling lor some tune to save Jus sister, j ic succeeded in getting within twenty l'ect j u the shore; they both sunk to rise no y nore. The lieroic boy having clung with j he desperation of a forlorn hope to his i j, sister, anxious and determined to save or ! >eris!t with her, became exhausted, and, in j judeavoring to keep his sister above the ; vater was himself borne down; another j ; rider brother also jumped in to their as-j listaiice, and was near going with his j M'otlv.r and sister to "that bourne from}. ,vheiice no traveller returns," but was re- j >cucd liy the boatmen. i' The deceased children were brought to , his borough, and were decently interred? ! i large portion of the citizens in alien- j * lance.

In the death of this : amiable woman her affectionate and devoted husband ami her three small children have suffered an irreparable lo-;s ; her brothers and sisters have , lott a kind, affectionate and beloved relative; and i many of her acquaintances a warm and devoted , friend; and the Methodist Church, of which she j was an exemplary member, one of its brightest or- : nanients.

But " death loves a siihiing mark," and a shining | one, in this instance, lie surely had,?one so bright in virtue and spotless integrity?so gloriously apparalhd in all the grapes and comforts of Religion. that the monster wa^ robbed ofliis sting, and the dark cold grave obtained no vieto rv. She was for several years a professor, and no , <]V;bt a possessor of Religion, bnd adorned her , profession with a!! the graces of tho christain spirit.* And as she lived so she died, with a! full [ and unwavering reliance on. a gracious and mer ciful Redeemer, and with the fall assurance of in eternal reward in the mansions of bliss on high. And although she suffered much bodily iffliction during her last illness, yet her mind ; kvas composed and calm as 4 summer evenings i be,' and in prospect of death she was perfectly re- . signed to the will of her Heavenly .bather: will-1 | ing to live or to din as to him seemed best.
