S. Pope. gni . I have just received from you a copy ol the Ii.irnstablu Patriot of the 2d hist., "in which you have seen fit to publish a letter addressed to me. In this letter , you "publicl y acknowled ge the recep- tion of a copy of the Report of the School Commit- tee of N." You say you "may presume yourself in- debted to me for it. '' This, sir, is but another proof and examp le of that presumptio n for which you have so Ion" been so notorious. You%ti!l further say "it is not the first favor, I believe , which I have received , and also another member of the old Board , at your hands." Now, sir , what do you mean by this and its accompanying in- sinuati ons ? You say you have served in the capac- ity of School Committee twelve years. If twelve years' experience in this office has not taug ht you better than to publicl y address (insult , I mig ht say.) ., man with such an epistle as this , I am quite wil- !in<. that an enlig htened public shall jud ge of your pa-Tt fitness for being Chairman of the Board. '•]. hereby publicl y acknowled ge,"sir, that neither yourself nor "another member of the old Board" have been indebted to me for this nor any other fa- vor. I have sent you no such favor. And any man who will address me as you have now done without any provocation , proves himself, it seems to me, not only unfit for a public Teacher and Pattern , but capable of employing any other means no less con- temptible , for the accomplishment of his own evil purposes. You have seen fit thus publicl y to present the cir- cumstance of my being rejected by yourself and as- sociates in office, when , some years since , I applied for a situation as Teacher in a school in Hyannis.— You labor hard to justif y (he course you then adopt- ed. This reminds me that "a guilty conscience needs no accuser." I have no desire to make personal matters public , therefore I have little to say on this matter. I was rejected by you, and althoug h I then felt it , I have long since ceased to regard it as any disgrace. I honestly believed (and since then it lias been , to me, satisfactori l y proved ,) that only one member of that Board was capable of deciding upon the quali- fication of teachers ; and he said in my presence that he never wished to ask a teacher more than f ive quistions , to tell his fitness for teaching. It is my lot to be a member of the School Committee in this tow n ; yet I hope I may never be guilty of uncivill y treating any teacher who may come before me. Do not any longer suppose, sir, that I still cherish hardness toward you on that account. I have long since supposed that to be assailed and evil spoken of by some persons, is the best recommendation they can give. In conclusion , I ha ve onl y to say that I hope you will , in future , make no "public acknowled gment" of favors from me, until you receive them. Should I ever see you in personal need of any favor which I can render , I trust 1shall ever be read y to do it. Till then , I hope to have intercourse with spirits more congenial. If, in writing me this letter , your object has been to draw me into a protracted news- paper contest , you have entirel y failed. I have a plenty of other and far better business. With due regard , A. W. Newton ,Jul y 1C. Loss of a Boat and Crew belonging to a Whaler.—The bark Harvest , Capt. Bailey, which arrived at New Bedford on the 18th inst ,makes the following report :— "On the 22d April .in lat. 44 1-2 S. Ion. 61 17 W. a dead whale was discovered from the Harvest , and the second mate 's boat lowered to secure it along- side. Shortl y after the boat left the shi p, she was lost sight of, and has not since been seen. The wind was blowing fresh at the time , and it is feared that the boat was swamped by an unluck y sea.— During the succeding ni ght , li ghts were set at mast head and signal guns were fired , and the shi p con- tinued to cruise in the vicinity for nine days without meeting with any trace of the boat. The names of the persons comprising the boat 's 'crew are John Cornell of Dartmouth , 2d mate ; George F. Bri ggs of do., boatstcerer , and William Howe, Frantlin Howard , Antone Garcia and Louronco Sauvada , seamen , places of residence not known. " Mr. Ansel Taylok died at the alms house in iiirmmilh on Thursday, July 11, at the age of 101 years and 8 months. Until within a few days of his death he retained his faculties unimpaired. He was never in his life known to be angry. He served in the revolution ary war , but would never app ly for » pension. Mu. Webster's Speech.—The argument deliv- ered in the Senate on Wednesday in favor of the compromise bill , as published entire , is considered a great effort. Mns. TAYI.OR.--It is the intention of Mrs. Tay- lor, relict of the late president , to establish a resi- dence and spend the remainder of her days in Bal- timore with her daughter , Mrs. Wood. Serious Accident.—Sometime during last week *l»le the laborers were engaged in pU Ui,,« down ">e old Bowling Saloon in the rear of No. 57 Mercer street , near Broome street , a large part of the rear wall fell w j th fl tremendous crash , bury ing four men beneath the ruins.

[Sandwich Observer. Pkoi kssor Joiix "Whit e Webster .—The fate of this unfortunate man is sealed ! Legal justice has fixed her limits upon his life ! In another column will be found the report of the Pardoning Commit- tee and the address and stern decree of Gov. Bri^s. Painful as was the task which devolved upon tluTin ' , they have not wavered in its performance. They have acted with promptness and we believe accord- ing to their own conscien tious convictions of duty. Of the countless number of persons whom we have heard express their feelings on the result , not one seemed disappointed , nor have we heard a complaint against the Executive ; but on the other hand , the universal sentiment appears to be that the decision is the onl y one that could be made, consistent with law and justice. On the thirtieth day of August , the man , who, n Professor of Harvard University, murdered in cold blood his own benefactor and the benefactor of the instituti on of which he was Professor , will be taken from the gloomy cell where he is now confined , in yonder jail , lo the place of execution , within its lim- its , and will then and there be hanged by the neck until he be dead , dead , dead ! We learn that up to eight o'clock last evening the death warrant had not been read to the condemned , lie obtained knowled ge of the decision , however , throug h an evening paper which was sent him. lie was but sli ghtl y moved on reading it. lie did not expect a commutation and therefore was not disap- pointed ". He is sincerel y believed to be a man de- voted to his own sp ititmil interests ,preparing for the awfu l fate which awaits him. It is rumored that he has expressed a preference to die rather than to have his sentence commuted. It is also said that Professor Webster will make or has alread y made , a more full confession of the manner in which he kill- ed Dr. Parkman , the same to be made known after his death. Mrs. Webster and her three daughters visited his cell yesterday afternoon about one o'clock. They were then ignorant of the decision of the Governor and Council. They do not allow themselves to read any of the newspapers and hence could not have ob- tained the information from that source. Mr. Sohier , one of' Proessor Webster 's counsel , visited him yes- terday afternoon. —[Bost on Bee, 20th inst. The Boston Journal of Saturday says— Hi gh Sheriff Evcleth * visited the prisoner this morning and found him quite calm , exhibitin g no observable change in his general appearance. His Excellency Gov. Briggs has affixed his signa- ture to the "Deat h Warrant ," which has been dul y transmitted to the Hi gh Sheriff. The prisoner expressed the hope this morning, that his famil y would be kept in ignorance of the day fixed for his execution. Skvkn Days Latkr from Europe.—The steamshi p America , Capt. Shannon , left Liverpool on the fith inst-, and arrived at Halifa x on the 17th , and was detained by a dense fog. She experienced strong head winds the whole passage. Death o f Sir Robert Peel.—The sudden and vio- lent death of Sir Robert Peel caused a great sensa- tion both in Eng land and France , and the papers are filled , almost to the exclusion of everything else , with extended notices of the late Premier , and with speculations as to the effect his death will have upon the politics of his country. The particulars of his death are thus stated : On Saturday evening, June 29, while proceeding to Whitehall , up Constitution Hill , his horse shied at something passing, kicked up his heels, and threw Sirliobert over his neck on his face. Althoug h rendered insensible by the fall , Sir Robert retained hold of the reins , and the animal thus being checked , lost his footing and fell heavil y upon the baronet. Several gentlemen passing ren- dered the necessary assistance, and the Ex-Premier was placed in a carriage and removed to his house in Whitehall , in a state of insensibility. All the hi ghest medical talent of London was soon in at- tendance , but their efforts availed not. After lin- gering till Tuesday ni ght , (he great statesman exp ir- ed in the 63d year of his age. A committee has been formed for the purpose of raising a fund by one penny subscri ptions to erect a monument to his memory. In reply to an offer by Lord John Russell , in the name of her Majesty and the nation , of a public fu- neral , his family declined the honor , inasmuch as it was Sir Robert 's last wish that he should be buried at Drayton Abbey, with as little parade as possible. Speculation is rife in England as to the probable effect the death of Sir Robeit Peel will have in (he position of parties. The general belief appears to be that the event will rather strengthen than weaken the present ministry. The death of Mr. Brown , M. P. for Mayo, is also announced. There is nothing of special importance from France. A Coincidence. As one of our venerable house-carpenters was at work on one of the old resi- dences in this city, on Wednesday, a fellow work- man stepped up and informed him that President Tay lor was dead ! The old gentleman faltered and seemed to bo struck strangel y by the news. In a few minutes , however , he apolog ised lo his associ- ate , say ing to him he supposed he was surprised al his appearance. "But , 1 ' said he, "fi fty-one years ago, in this very house , not two feet from where 1 stood when you told me,I was informed of the death of President Washington , by my mother. That scene, with her cocntenanee and manner , flashed upon me so vividl y, when you spoke , that it was some minutes before I could command myself." [Portland Advertiser. We see by the Nantucket Inquirer , the Rev. Dr. Sears , Secretary of the Board of Education , and N. P. Banks , Esq., who was appointed by the Legisl a- ture lust winter to canvass the Slate for the purpose of awakening an increased interest in our common schools , have been spending a few days on the 'Con- tinent ,' holdin g public meetin gs and visiting and ad- dressing the schools. Their public addresses are spoken of in terms hi ghl y comp limentary—and as containing instruction and advice ,which , if followed , will do much towards augmenling (he benefits which result from our system of common schools. The whole number of vessels which have sailed from the Atlantic ports for California since the first discovery of gold in that region , is 1,257—viz : 395 shi ps, 347 barks , 271 bri gs, 212 schooners , 2 sloops , and 30 steamers. From Jan. 1, 1819, to Jul y 1, 1850, 66 vessels sailed from Baltimore lo California. Distressing Accident.—Mr . Seth T. Whel- den of South Dennis , was on Wednesday, 10th inst., severel y inju red by a hogshead of molasses, which was on a dray, getting loose , and passing over his whole person , with the exception of his head. He lay hel pless in the woods where the accident occur- red for several hours , the hogshead upon him a por- tion of the time. He is now doing well , thoug h greatl y injured.—[Yarmouth Register. Execution.—George W. Evans , a young man convicted of murder , was executed at Macon , Gco,, on Friday, 5th inst., in presence of an immense con- course of persons. He was born and reared amid profli gacy and crime , which had combined to de- stroy the better impulses of his nature. The Macon Messenger says : " On the scaffold he warned the youth of the country to beware of his examp le and shun the ways of wickedness which led to the igno- miniou s gallows ; and , in alluding to the teachings of his own sinful mother , gave fearful warning To the mothers of the land to look well to the habits and conduct of their children. " Daniel II. Pearson.—This unfortunate crim- inal is to be executed on Friday next , within the limits of the jail at East Cambrid ge, and for the pur- pose of preventing him from doing any injury to himself, a guard has been stationed , and is con- stantl y kept over his cell , both day and ni ght.

We regard it as one of Nature 's own preparations—simp le, safe, pleasant to take, and almost certain to cure all billio us and pulmonary affections. We have witnessed its wonderfu l eft"ects ,in cases that were regarded as hope- lessly desperate , and we can conscientiousl y recommend it as one of the best medicines in the world." The following is from a very respectable source : Boston , Nov. 27 , 1848. Mr. S W Fowle : Dear Sir—Although averse to hav- ing my name made public in the newspapers , I make this unsolicited state men t, and you are at liberty to make use of it as you please. In the fall of 1847, 1 took a violent cold , which brought on a severe cough th«t lasted through the winter and spring, and caused me to raise bload and phlegm continually, day and night , which greatly reduced ,me in flesh and strength : I tried several kinds of medicine , with little or no effect. I had become feeble and emaciated , and began to de- spair of ever getting relief, when by advice of my friends. I was induced to try Dr. Wistar 's Wild Cherry Balsam, and after having taken five bottles I found myself near- ly or quite well, and to this alone, I think I owe present existence. I shall he happy to give further information to any one who will call on me. Respectfull y yours , WILLIAM WHEELER, Grocer, Harrison Avenue , rear 730 Washington-street. Agents.—0.

CORBETT'S SARSAPARILLA ," 03s"All other Sarsaparilla Compounds proving useless ! Boston, February 16, 1850. Messrs. E Brinlcy & Co. : Gentlemen—The effects of Dr. Corbett's Concentrated Syrup- of Sarsaparill a upon John Davis, Sexton of the Mariner's Church , over which I am pastor , I am happy to state has proved most sig- nally efficacious and potent. At the time he commenc- ed taking this efficacious preparation , he was in a very feeble state of health , with alarming sores upon differ- ent parts of his body ! After using this medicine awhile he rap idl y began to improve, and is now in a comforta- ble state of health , the sores having since healed with which he was so long afflicted , although his life was long since despaired of! To Dr. Corbett's Concentrated Syrup of Sarsap arilla 1 conscientiousl y attribute his ^restoration to health.— Therefore to all those who may bo suffering from any Impurity of the Blood , I would say, I consider Dr. Cor- bett's Sarsaparilla always to be relied upon , in our ef- forts to secure Health ! and surel y I know it will be found an economical and safe medicine for Seamen and others , for the various complaints for which Sar- saparilla is recommended.
