Providence, April 4. Mr. Knight, the republican candidate, is elected Governor of this State.

A Nocturnal Feast. On Tuesday night, the 25th ultimo, a number of persons feloniously entered the bake-house of Mr. Christopher Hill, kindled a fire, baked a number of cakes, and having spread a table, ate them with gingerbread and sugar cakes; of the latter seventy were consumed. It appears that this select and genteel party completed their repast on a large box out of doors, and within a few feet of the residence of eleven families, none of whom were invited to the feast. It would be well for the persons engaged in this unwarrantable affair, to reflect that foolish tricks are often the precursors of atrocious crimes, and that sport at the expense of others, has no equitable claim to impunity.

On the evening of Monday last, a violent storm of hail crossed us from the north-west. Although some of the stones picked up measured four inches and a balf in circumference, still the wind was so light that we suffered no other damage than the breaking a few of our windows. The storm was confined to this city and the immediate vicinity.

Fire. On Tuesday evening, the 1st inst, the dwelling-house of Mr Joel Wadsworth of East-Hartford, was entirely consumed, together with the principal part of his household furniture, The fire, it is supposed, caught by accident.

NEW-YORK.

Albany, April 18. The Legislature adjourned at eleven o'clock on Tuesday evening, after a session of three months, having passed, including the extra session, two hundred and ninety-four laws. Among the most prominent, is that which provides for the immediate commencement of the canals which are to connect the waters of the lakes with those of the Hudson. The board of commissioners, we learn, have resolved to take immediate measures for the commencement of this gigantic work.

The expense of the Grand Canal is estimated by the Commissioners, at 4 881,738 dollars-that of the Canal from Lake Champlain, at 800,000 dollars.

Among the laws enacted at this Session, are 24 for incorporating turnpike and bridge companies, 10 for erecting new towns, 1 for erecting a new county, 4 for incorporating banks, and several for laying out new roads.

Laws have also passed abolishing imprisonment for debt for sums not exceeding twenty-five dollars, extending the jurisdiction of the justices' courts in the city of NewYork to 100 dollars.-declaring persons joining the Society of Shakers, civilly dead, to all iutents and purposes, &c. &c.

By a law passed on the 31st of March, 1817, the final and total abolition of Slavery the 4th day of July, 1827. In this law it is within this state, is declared to take place on enacted, "That every Negro, Mulatto, and Mustee, within this state, born before the 4th day of July, 1799, shall from and after the 4th day of July, 1827, BE FREE:" and by the same law it is further enacted, That all Negroes, Mulattoes and Mustees, horn after the 4th day of July, 1799, shall BE FREE at the age of 21 years.

Common Schools. The Superintendent of Common Schools reports to the Legislature, that "there are within the state, exclusive of the city and county of New-York, at least five thousand common schools which have been organized and kept up under the act for their establishment; and the number of children annually taught in them, exceeds two hundred thousand." The sum distributed the last year, from the common schoolfand, was about 65,000 dollars.

The Rev. FRANCIS BROWN, of Dartmonth College, has been appointed to the President's chair of Hamilton College.

dangerously wounded in attempting to prevent this atrocious depredation. The soldiers, after examination, were committed, to take their trial, at the next General Sessions of the peace.

Fire. On Friday evening last, between 11 and 12 o'clock, a fire was discovered in the cantonment, called "Pike's cantonment," near this village. We understand the fire originated in the bospital barracks; which, without other damage, were entirely con. sumed.

Troy, April 15.

Commerce. It may not be uninteresting to distant readers, who barely know, that within a few years, this town has obtained the honour of being placed on the map of this state, that it is now about 30 years since the first store was erected here; at that time there were only 4 or 5 dwelling-houses within the limits of the present city of Troy. This city contains now about 5000 inhabitants. In the course of last week, there was shipped here property estimated at a moderate calculation to amount to two hundred thousand dollars, consisting principally of flour, wheat, provisions, lumber, potash, &c. The flour was manufactured at the mills in the south part of the city, of which there are four, of very superior workmanship, both as respects their plan and durability of mate

A violent tempest. On Monday evening last, between 8 and 9 o'clock, we experienced, in this place, a most tremendous shower of hail accompanied with heavy thunder, and remarkably vivid lightning. The wind was about North.-The tempest continued nearly half an hour; many of the stones were more than three and a half inches in circumference. Some were picked up the morning after on the road to Easthampton, more than one inch and a half in diameter. All the injury sustained was in our windows, out of which, probably, more than a thousand squares of glass were broken in this place.

The dwelling-house of Mr. Daniel Robbins, of Satauket, was consumed by fire on Friday evening, the 20th March.

The shock of an earthquake was felt by a number of the inhabitants of Sautauket, and the adjacent towns, on the 29th March, at 3 o'clock in the morning. The shock was at tended with a rumbling noise resembling distant thunder, and was so severe that the windows rattled and the houses were considerably agitated. The shock was also felt in this place.

New-York, April 18.

Last night, at 11 o'clock, a fire was discovered in the cellar of the house No. 5 Burling-slip, but, by the timely exertions of the neighbours, was got under without doing any injury. There is not the least doubt but this was set on fire by some vile incendiary. The watchmen were on their posts and very attentive.

Last evening, between the hours of 7 and 9 o'clock, the store of M. Judah & Co. No. 269 Pearl-street, was rifled of several articles by some person who bad, it is supposed, concealed himself in the cellar until after the store was shut up, when he made his way up through the trap-door into the store, and with the articles taken decamped through the front window, which he left open.

Elisabeth-Town, April 2. Fire. On Wednesday night last, about half past ten o'clock, the terrific cry of Fire! Fire! was sounded in our streets, which proved to be the pottery of Thomas Boylston; loss estimated at 7000 dollars.

PENNSYLVANIA.

The Legislature of Pennsylvania, at their late Session, passed an act appropriating half a million of dollars to internal improvements, roads, bridges, and canals; 105,000 of which is to complete the turnpike from Philadelphia to Pittsburgh. The Schuylkill, Lehigh, and Monongahela rivers, are among the first objects for "lock navigation."

An association is spoken of at Philadelphia, to establish a line of waggons between that city and Pittsburgh-to start at fixed times, and, by travelling day and night, like the mail stages, to make the journey in seven days. This may easily be accomplished when the great turnpike is finished.

Philadelphia, April 10. Villany Detected. A few days ago a res. pectable mechanic of this city, received a letter from a person in New-York, signed J*** D. G******, stating that he had before him a catalogue of his instruments, and selected such as he wished to be forwarded im mediately, and for payment of which he enclosed a draft on the Farmers' and Mechanics' Bank for two thousand five hundred dollars, requesting him to present it, and to remit the balance in New-York Notes. The order was immediately, as far as practicable, complied with, the draft was presented, and the money paid; some difficulty arose in procuring the New-York notes, and it was concluded best to get a Post Note of the Bank of the United States, which was very prudently cut in two, and one half forwarded, with an assurance that the other should be, on acknowledgment of the receipt of the first. During these transactions, the gentleman in New-York, from whom the draft had been stolen, wrote to his correspondent here to stop payment of it at the bank, or if paid, to ascertain to whom; a disclosure of the fraud immediately took place; and only just in time to prevent the forwarding of the other half of the Post Note, and most probably the ruin of a very worthy citizen. We have not heard whether the purloiner of the draft has been arrested.

Philadelphia, April 14.

Fire. Yesterday, about noon, the roof of the spacious building, No. 140 South Secondstreet, owned by Robert Wain, Esq. and occupied by Mr. John White, was discovered to be on fire. It originated from a small oak chump, which was on fire, and which was, no doubt, intentionally put in the loft, near the roof, for the purpose of destroying the building. We understand that a servant boy has been committed on suspicion of being guilty of this wicked act.

The Governor of Pennsylvania bas appointed George F. Lehman to be Lazaretto Physician.

Álexander Knight, to be Port Physician. Christopher O'Connor, to be Quarantine Master.

Insolvent Law. We understand Chief Jus

tice Tilghman delivered an elaborate opinion in favour of the constitutionality of the Insolvent Law, passed the 13th March, 1812, by the Legislature of Pennsylvania, which embraced the provisions of a State Bankrupt Law.

Oliver Evans' steam engine, used for raising water to supply Philadelphia, is calculated to raise nearly 4 millions of gallons in 24 hours.

MARYLAND.

Ballimore, April 3. Distressing Occurrence.-Yesterday morning, immediately after breakfast, Mr. Weise, (who keeps a store in Market street,) his wife, and the remainder of his family, eight in number, were all seized with violent vomitings, in consequence it is supposed of the villany of a servant, who is believed to have put poison into the coffee. An infant child has already died under the operation; it, however, gives us infinite pleasure to state, that the rest of the family, though deeply afflicted, are
