the history of the bagpipe is curious and interest ing but such a history does not fall within the scope of ibis work- although a very an cient instrument it does not appear to have been known to the celtic nations it was io use among the trojaos greeks aod romans but bow or in what manner it came to be in- trodocedinto the highlands is a question which cannot be solved two suppositions hare been started on this point either that it was brought in bv the romans or by the nor thern nations the latter conjecture appears ro be most probable for we cannot possibly imagine that if the bigpipe bad been intro duced so early as tbe roman epoch no notice should have been taken of that instrument by ihe more early annalists and poets but if the bagpipe was an imported instrument how does it happrti that the great highland pipe is peculiar to tbe highlands and is per u haps the only national instrument in europe if it was introduced by the romans or by tbe people of scanoiftavia how has it happened thatio traees of that instrument in its present shapero be found anywhere except in the highlands there is indeed some plausi bility in these interrogatories but they are ea sily answered by

him so far at least as the facts are concerned having been severely censured hy the public on the painful subject in question the public prosecutor is entitled to the benefit of these explanations having satisfied him self that the testimony of certain individuals could have no effect whatever upon the case it waa perhaps proper that he should shield their characters as far as possible from the odium of public exposure still we think he erred in judgment although we honor the be nevolent feeling which swayed him in not brinrjinjr upon the stand the paramour of ro- sina towoacnd the greni

whom mrs townsend elizabeth sailers and emma french dff- lo he kichard p robinson known to assumed on h different visits to the unfortu nate girl without f those witnesses however the district auorney must have felt abundant ly able to fen conviction upon the prisoner besides the circumstantial evidence of the hatchet eli and white on the pantaloons contagion handkerchief rnioiature c iherc them as frank rivers a name which it w acknowledged by others he had ppeared to be strong he fully expected to ihe handwriting of the letters and the journal and which had been privately ac knowledged bv persons who properly perhaps felt that they had a right to doubts when af terward speaking of ihem on oath on the trial these letters it will be remembered were said to contain matter which proved that helen was in possession of an important se cret and that iherc was a strong motive for depriving her of life- the district attorney was not ableio bring them forward as evi dence some were not proved and others he was oot allowed toread one of the letters however which related to the miniature he succeeded in bringing before tbe jury anoth er of the letiers which he expected to have identified is something like it aod is writ ten in a disguised hand but from certain of the characters no doubt is entertained of its coming from ihe same hand that tbe others did il was to the following effect he calls her in it dear nelly slc as usual the letter commences by asserting that he len was in possession of a very important se cret in relation to him and he puts interroga tories to her as to whether she will betray him will you expose me to the world he says irih you cut my throat u you persist in what you threaten i know my course it shall be short and sweet oo no sweet bitter bit ter perhaps ihere never was a case in which the public prosecutor bad more tocooteod with than our district atttoroey had on that trial for some lime previous to its taking place among other expedients resorted to colored prims pretending to be likenesses of richard p robinson and helen jewell were placed in the windows of all our print shops and in every public place where people would allow ihem to remain these pictured robinson as a beautiful modest youths one apparently io- capable of crime and helen on tbe other band as a coarse looking bran eyed shrew that would do any thing neither of them we understand looked any ihiog like original and we need not say were too probably placed there for a certain effect the minds of our young men in particular run in consequence strongly in favor of the prisoner the court room was filled with bis friends ready to hiss any thing said by the prosecution against bim or to applaud what his truly talented counsel might say in his favor it waa in tain that the court endeavored at u times to preserve order the feeling would show itself whenever an opportunity offered this imperceptibly had its effect on the jury besides this tbe court did every thing that itceusillftlly gbuld lo faver the prisoner tllowe evidence to be suppressed at the request of his counsel aod the whole put together truly made up hill work for the exertions of the prosecuting at torney in regard to the witnesses it will be conce ded we believe it must have beeo truly pain ful to the feelings and was injurious to the reputation of the young rtan who had been at the house to be called upon to stand it was necessary however for the district attorney to bring forward those that he did and his heart must have bled at the manner in which some of them implored to be excused in order to ssreogthen tbe circumstantial evidence io particular thai of ihe cloak the haodkerchief and the miniature on this account he brought no more forward of either sex than would have been serviceable on the trial- gray if he had brought him would probably have gone for his friend and the porter in mr furlongs store probably testify to ycuog man having been tbere that night the speeches made by the prisoners coun sel were master pieces of eloquence but as we have already said we never heard any thing that surpassed in eloquence or energy the fi nal charge of the district attorney when he spoke of the deed commit t in the quiet of nighi when the city was enrapped in slumber its effects upon the community c his lan guage was startlingly effective his manner in speaking of the unnatural coldness of the pri soner too oo being brought to the house and told that one whom he had loved aod caressed was horribly murdered was thrilling io its ef fect-
