Tue Roman States.—According to the accounts
from Rome, a very uncxpected event has occurred
in connection with the French intervention. The
expedition under General Oudinot, on ilts approach
to that city, has enconutered a resistance which
has induced the General to {all back a few miles,
in order to wait the arrival of those reinforcements
which were known to be on their way trom Mur
eeilles and Toulon, and which have, ere now,
rcached his head quarters.
General Oudinot marched on the 27th uit. from
Civita Veechia, where he left a garrison of about
1200 men ; the account of his subsequent progress
is furnished by the telegraphice dispateh published
by the French Government (=" According to a tel
egraphic dispatch which has reached the Govern
ment, General Oudinot had sct out on his march
for Rome, where, according to every information,
he was called by the wishes of the people. But
having met from the foreigners who occupy Rome
more serious resistance than he expected, he took
up a position at some distance from the city, and
was waiting the arrival of the rest of the expedi
tion.” No date is mentioned; but it is probable
that General Ovdinot would arrive near Rome on
the 30th ult. On the 26th the Roman Constituent
Assembly pronounced the following decree :
“The Assembly, in consequence of the commu
nications made by the trinmvirate, and after ma
ture and fully reaconed discussion, resolved nnani
mously to commit to the trinmvirate the office of
saving the Republie, and repelling force by force.”
On the 27th the Consutuent Assembly re
solved to adhere to their resolution of opposing
the entrance of the French into Rome, and con
tinued the preparations for defence. "I'he Assem
bly have ordered the prefect of Civita Veelia and
the commander of the fort to be put on their trial
for allowing the Roman territory to be invaded by
the French army. "T'he Assembly is permanently
sitting, night and day. Orders have bgen issued
to undermine the Milvian bridge, and and the ap
roaches to Rome on the side of the sea-hoard.—
Bnrricudeu with cannon are erected along the road,
and the fales and streets that lead to Civita Vee
chia. The long covered gallery erected by Pope
Borgia, between the castle of St. Angelo and llne
Vatican Palace, has been blown up with powder,
and the materials used to bloek up the avenues of
the city. A strong position on l{w rond (Castel
Guido) has been chosen for nn advanced camp.
A deputation of the national guard and of the cen
tral committee left Rome for Civita Veeehia, with
a protest to the French troops against the inva
sion : anl informed General Oudinot that Rome
would resist his entrance by force, and blow up
the Quirinal, the Vatican, and St. Peter's, whic‘l
were already mined. The General replied that his
instructions were imperative, and that he would
enter Rome by force if not quietly received. At
Civiti Vecchin the French are stated to observe the
most exact discipline, bat enforee very rigid regu
lations for the maintenance of tranquility. 1t is l
announced that in eonscquence of the anarchy
which prevails at Ancona, the French Govern- |
ment has ordere) Rear Admiral de Ricaudy 1o pro
ceed there forthwith, ’
The Government is most active in the commis-
sariat department, and there is corn in store for
twelve months’ provision. The strongest barri
cades are in the three leading streets that converge
on the Porta del Popolo, which gate is well gar
nished with artillery. The Ponte Molle is sure to
be blown up at the first alarm. The arrival this
morning of 600 Lombards, who had disembarked
at Porto d’Anzo, 15 miles off, was a great spectacle
ulong the Corso.
The Neapolitans are supposed to be advancing
through the Pontine marshes, but their advent in
spires only feelings of contempt. Their junction
with the French will bring disgrace on la grande
nation, without adding to the oficnsive strength of
the crusaders.
The Siecle gives the following account of the dis
aster to the French troops at Rome :—* The let
ters which we receive, both from the officers of the
expeditionary ariny. and from the oflicers of the
navy who have been employed in the transport of
the troops and stores, give precise details of the
affair at Rome, which we think it to be our daty
to notice. General Oudinot at first sent two com
panics into the eity of Rome' through a postern,
the key of which had been given up to him.—
Whethier from treachery or from any other cause,
this postern was closed assoon as the companics
had passed it, and the General immediately aftr
heard the firing begin. He resolved to go to their
succour through breaches to be made in the wall ;
but, when he had released the fragments of these
companies, he was obliged to retire to San Paolo.
The General narrowly escaped being taken prison
er incrossing a bridge, upon which he had <o sus
tain a sharp attack. This retreat, imposed upon
him by the situation in which he found himself,
drew his troops out of the line of communication ;
and the inhebitants of the country, who up to that
time had been very cordial with the soldiers, sup
plying them with provisions, suddenly withdrew,
In an apprchension of a defeat. It was not till
the next day that the General could regain Castel
Gelido and re-form his line. He then retired to
within six leagues of Civita Veechia, where he
wasto wait for reinforcements. The divaster is
even greater than was first ‘urposed. We have
800 men hors de combat, including 47 officers,—
Among the killed is an officer of great merit, M. de
Jonquiere.”
The correspondent of the Daily News writing
from Rome, on the Jd instant, states that the
French did not enter Rome at all, and all the fight
ing ok place outside the walls. The gates of
San Pancrazio, Portese and Cavallegicr were the
points of attack. A sortic was made by Garibaldi
as the French advanced, and the latter are said by
our correspondent to have lost 600 killed on the
spot. There were 452 Frenchmen taken prison
ers, many of whom, when crossing the streets of
Rome, were heard to declare that they had been
tricked intothe expedition by promises of being
led against the Austrians. Four guus were alsy
taken by the Romans. At 3o'clock on the lst inst.
the French sent in a flag of truee,

There is no news from France of much moment,
with the exception of reports of increasing discon
tent in the army, and the progress of Sociulist scn
tments among the soldiers. .
A serious riot and mutiny has taken place in the
barracke of the 7th light infantry, stationed at the
Hotel des lnvalides. A serjeant-major, Boichot,
having had his nawe placed among l‘c list o 1 So
cialist candidates for the new Assembly, was ar
rested —the men insisted upon his release—a riot
of a scrious character ensued —the officers were
disobeyed und defied, and at length Boichot was

The anniversary of the proclamation of the Re

“Vive Nupoleon,” with the exception of the Gith le

which passed almoet in silence. Inone of the le

the cry was immedintely drowned in the cries of an

The German Empire,
The various kingdoms and provinces are in the
highest state of exeitement, owing to the unsct
tled position of the aflairs of the Central govern
ment,
’ The quarrel between the Parliamentary party
throughout all the various divisions of Germany
and their respective Princes has reached to the
highest piteh. It is altogether impossible to con
ceive how the dispute can be settled without re
course to arms. Indeed, in Saxony a frightful
contlict has already taken place. At Dresden the
people, or rather Red Republican party, fought
with the troops during seven hours on the Hth
inst. and a great loss of life oceurred ; the rail
roads were displacedt in order to prevent troops
from Berlin arriving ; but a suffizient force of Prus
sians having come up opportuncly, a momentary
tranquility was sccured by sheer military force.—
The tight, however, was renewed on the Gth, and
a frighttal cannonading lasted all day, till night
separated the combatants. On the 7th the battle
was again renewed at four o'clock inthe morning,
and the most deadly warfire was going on in the
streets by the latest advices up till six o'clock
in the morning of that day. At Leipsic the
sume fury is about to break out into similar
popular insurrcctions. Hauover is yet quiet,
but in Mecklenburg the spirit of Red Republican
isin is most active. The Rhenish provinees are in
the highest state of excitement, and are resolved to
form an united Germany *'this time.”

Austriaand Hungary,
The Austrian empire is in much danger from the
Hungnrian insurrection, and also from the move
ments in other provinees. ‘T'he intervention of the
Russians, however, is at length officially announ
ced, and a large bady of troops is said to be march
ing to the wid of the Austrians which may change
the fortunes of war.
It is said that the total Russian force placed at
the disposal of the Austrian Government amounts
to 150,000 men; but that 50,000 of them will be
held in reserve, and will not at first enter the Aus
trinn territories. ‘lhe Russian vanguard of 5000
men is stated to have already crossed the Cracow
frontier.
It is stated that the Austrian troops have raised
the siege of Comorn, but the Magyars have suc
ceeded in withdrawing all their heavy artillery
from the trenches.
The Hungarians continued successful in their
movements. They have gained new victories over
the Austraing under the command of Welden, near
Tezred, not far from Presburg, and forced them to
retire rather quickly to the latter place. The im
perial troops are in bad case since the last en
grganent. They are quartered at Weiselberg,
Bruck, and a part of Sumereln. Gen Welden had
been wounded in the head. In the camp itself the

! Onthe Ith there were reports at Berlin of an
'nutbn-uk at Dresden, and of a sanguinary col
[ lision between the troops and the people (the lat
ter, of course, aided by the national guard.) which
" are confirmed by the “arrival of dispatches, and by
travellers from Dresden. It appears thas the popu
lace, hearing that the King had refused to aceept
the Gorman constitation, attacked the palace and
~arsenal ; that the troops were called out, and fired;
that the communal guard, in licu of assisting the
military, hesitated—were, either purposcly or ac
cidentally, fired upon by the latter—and then
joined the populace ; that barricades were thrown
up ; and that the King, arrested for awhile, quit
ted Dresden, and retired to Konigstein,
The fight continued with some intermission sev--
cral days, and at the last advices, Sth instant,
‘hostilitics still raged. The royal troops had been
rcinforced, and had gained some uadvantages, but
there was no immediate prospect of the termina

A Provisional Government has been formed by
the people, the members of which have been out
lawed. Some of the troops have fraternised with
the people and the revolutionary party have re
ccived sympathy and assistance from Leipsic, Pir

Several large towns, including Bautzen, Gorlitz,
and Lobau, have acknowledged the Provisional
Government. The commander of the troops in

All accounts from the grand duchy of Poscn

PROVIDENXCE,
Weduesday, May 30, 1819,
DOWN-FALL OF TAYLORISM.
General Taylor has been in the Presidential of
fice less than three months. Already his incoms
petencey is fully established, and the most devoted
of his friends are admitting his unfitness for the
place he has been called to fill. He is a mere ci
pher in the Cabinet, without either the ability or
the firmness «which are needed to make Lis wishes
respected, Indeed it is doubtful iff he has any
wish or any opinion connected with the duties of
his office, other than a desire to be praised for his
“ronghness,” and un inclination to appear o e
Just what he is not—independent of the leeches
who surround hum. His inaugaral was nndoubt
edly written by Major Bliss. Since then he has
not had time to commit a speech to memory, and
has not attempted to make one, which has not
proved a complete thilure. On one occasion he
attempted to read a speech, but broke down on
some hard word in the Major's manuseript.—
What a man, to be President of the United States!
How humiliating to us as the “mode! Republic !”
~ Itisnot strange that the party which attempts
to support such a man in such « place should show
sigus of early decay and ruin. That men who
made pretensions to ability should visit Washing
ton ouly to leave itin disgust. That the strong
men who Jhave supported him should feel the
shame and mortilication so natural to the cireum
stances. That, little by little, the interest in his
administration should be falling away. That the
leading men of the party should come coldly and
the masses but slowly to his support. It is not
strange that in the elections which have taken
place since he became known to the people in
some other light than as a * mere military chief
tain,” he should have failed, miserably failed to re
tain for his party the position which it has hereto
fore oceupied. The people do not waut a mere
nothing in the Presidential chair.
We make no further complaint of Taylor's vio
lation of his pledges. If the people had known
the man—his utter incapacity—as well seven
months ago as they do now, he would not have
had the opportunity to insult them as he has done.
[lis pledges would have been forgotten long be
ore this. They might as well be forgotten now ;
for they cannot be held as the word of a responsi
ble man. They were gottenup for him by de
signing politicians ; and they pleased his fancy.—

A GOOD WORD FROM ITALY.
The interference of France with the affuirs of
Italy we have considered from the.first as a most
ontrageous and disgraceful step, and which would,
- Sooner or later, consign its authors to everlasting
infamy. Yet we had not doubted till the arrival
~of the last steamer, that the purpose which she had
in view, of re-establishing the Pope in his tempo ral
cor civil authority, would be easily accomplish ed.
| Wedid notdream that the army which she despaitch
i ed to Rome would meet with any serious res ist
| ance. Painful as the thonght was, we entertained
it, that the ltalian Republicans would surrender
' their position at once; and we looked for some
’compromi-c which should retain the Pope in his
i chair and at the same #hne give a more liberal as
pectto the legislative and advisory departme nts
‘of government, as the best thing that could, under
all the circumstances, be hoped for.
' We have been agreeably disappointed. “The
| French army has been repalsed at the very onset.
T'he brave men who swore Republicanism in tkeir
“hearts, have stood nobly by their cause in the hour
of trial. The men, and the women too, has ve
‘buckled on the Republican armor in earnest,—
We can hardly hope that they will trinmph ; and
yet we must hope that men so deserving of victory
will be able to obtain it. Their cause is precisely
thatof France, when she threw off Louis Philli ppe;
and eternal shame on the Republicans of Frauce,
if’ they will not permit their Italian neighbors to
Join the same brotherhood with themselves.
We wish to hear of still more glorious suce css
on the part of Italy, if she is driven to other en.
counters with France. We shall almost expect to
hear that the French soldiers who fraternized v ith
the people when the war was against tyranny at
home, will leave the flag which Louis Napole on
has brought into disgrace, and join in sustainin za
representative government in Ttaly. We o all
grow sick of the very name of France, if she: is
permitte ] to consummate the base purpuse to
which she is now devoting hier energies.
{7 A Washington correspondent of the New
York Express denounces Messrs. Clayton and
Meredith, of the Cabinet, because they will not
make removals and appointments as fast as they
are called for by the greedy cormorants who hang
about Washington. His denunciation is undoubt
edly intended for Old Zack, but the toady has not,
probably, got his courage to the point of saying so.
It is remarkable that the old Whig organ, the Na
tional Intelligencer, has lately wheeled ronnd in
the other direction, and recommends the no-party,
anti-proseriptive policy. In turn, the Express de
nouuces the Intelligencer, mnd asserts that to earry

[coMmumicaTED,]
Mr. Emror:="l'he Governor of the Providence
Journal, for so I suppose we must call Henry B,
Anthony Fsq., editor of that paper, as he hides be
hind the chair of State, and isafraid to say a word
to the Legislature, or the people about onr treas.
nry and other local affairs,—the Governor of the
Journal, I see, compares the recent mob and riot
in the city of New York, whose object was to put
down an actor, and destroy a theatre. to the quiet,
orderly lawful and rightful doings of a Conven
ton of the people in this State, in 1842, 10 form a
Constitution,—and to the lawful acts of a govern
ment daly elected under that Constitution. Our
Chiel’ Magistrate, in thas writing, has shown a
great want of common honesty and fairness, and
a great excess of walice and fulsity,
Democrats, as Lunderstand it, hold every where,
thut the laws and Constitution of a State, until al
tered by a vightful authority are binding upon all,
and ought to be maintained, even, if need be, by
the sacrifice of life. But what resemblance there
is between the acts of a mob, collected to destroy
a theatre, in violation of law, and the acts of the
Sovereign People of a State, and their duly au
thorized agents, in muking and carrying into ef
‘ feet a Constitution and the laws passed under it,
itis diflicult to comprehend. Perhaps the motive
of this editor in sending forth such fulse and wick
ed cmissions through his press is to attempl to gain
alittle sympathy toward the old despised Algerine
cause of 1842, which so stank even to the olfacto
ries okthe Whigs in other States, that they have
been long anxious to have it put outof the way and
buried, as soon as possible, and at a good depth.
The jury in New York, have foundthat the use of
the wilitary in the recent riot was justifiable, and
their verdict is supported by men of different par
ties. The Journal, supposing that the circnmstan
ces of 1842 may have faded away in part from
men’s minds abroad, hopes to cover up the Alge
rine iniquities of that day by suggesting to the nn
remembering that the Algerines in 1842 were on
ly putting down a mob in Rhode Island.
I do not propose to dwell upon this point, being
greatly pleased with your article of the 19th on this
subject, strong and sharp, and cutting the Alge
rine vitals like a rifle shot. What I wish to do is
10 allude to several riots that have occurred here,
and which the Democrats, who, the Journal wants
to have it believed are fond of mobs, disapproved
and condemned at the time.
The first is that some twenty-five years ago,
when, a man having been shot, a mob attempted
to pull down honses, and was stopped, only by the
bullets of the military, Demaocerats regretied the
necessity of using force of this kind, but did not
see how it could be helped.
The next case is that of a riot about three years
ago, inwhich about hall'a dozen “respectable young
gentlemen” were concerned. ‘T'he watch took up
the rioters, paroled them out till morning, and then
“settled” for a pretty handsome sum all round.—
The Democrats disapproved of this riot also ; and
they thought that it would have beenno more than
justif the culprits had been carried through a
course of law and finally lodged in the State pris
on. But, considering their connections, and that
it was a first oflence, the Democrats were willing
that they should be let off, without more being said
aboutit. And now these very men, turn round
and accuse the Democrats of being fond of mobs
and riots, and deserving to be shot down!
FUR THE HERALD,
Mr. Evimor—A correspondent inthe last num
ber of your paper reviews the New York riot in
an unfair manner. e says—*They, the friends
of the actor, knew that if' they persevered a con
test would ensue, and not unlikely with murder
ous results, in which the lives of innocent people
might be endangered, probably sacrificed.” Re
verse the above and it is equally applicable, and
‘more 5o from the fact that the opposers were act.
ing in opposition to onr institutions. The friends
of the actor had an undeniable right to request
him to continue his engagement ; and in giving
him audience they were entitled to the protection
of the city authorities. Under such circumstances
would it be justifiable for the anthorities to listen to
the dictation of a mob, and thus encourage a law
less set to oppose the law at will or pleasure ?
Certainly not; for it would have blackened our
national character and formed an unwise and dan- ‘
gerous precedent,
- Again he says, “This was not done to protect
any work of necessity, any enterprise of benevo
lence, or to uphold the authorities in the lawful
exercise of their functions, but just to swell the
trinnph of a play-actor and gratify the pride and
pique of his admirers.” Any work of necessity ?
If the protection of individuals and property is not
a necessity, pray where shall we find it? Sup
'pose a certain portion of the anti-temperance res
idents of New York should object to Father Ma
thew lecturing in that city, and after showing a
dispositon to interrupt, should attempt to overawe
the government by threats : would not necessity
call upon the police and wilitary, if necessary, 10
preserve peace and tranquillity ? Suppose such
an indignity had been offered to Mr, Forrest whilst
in Europe ; what would have been the feelings of
every true American? Our souls would have
burned with resentment. But to wreak our
vengeance upon one individual, would have been
brutal and cowardly and unworthy of an Ameri
can. i CARLOS.,

remaining in Mr. Bancroft's hands. We recom.

gence that Burrixéroy Axtrony had been re.
moved from the office of U. 8. Marshal of this
Distriet, and Warter 8. Burces from that of
District Attorney. It is not pretended, of course,
that either of these gentleman failed to perform his
duties acceptably, but only that they were Demo
crats. What nonsense for old Zack to pretend to
be a no-party President !
We are not sure, however, that all parties will
not be ashamed to own him before his term is out.
A large portion of the Whigs are already making
up mouths at him, and his incompetency is as
generally acknowledged as it need to be.
Gen. Taylor reminds us of the story told of a
“green 'un” when he first saw a locomotive, He
ngmired the consarn very much, looked all around
it and examined it in every particular. Ie finally
stepped on to it and pulled out the starting bar,
umf away the locomotive and the ‘‘green 'un”
went at the rate of forty miles an hour. Without
the ability or knowledge to govern the machine he
had put in motion, so, soon as he came to uneven
parts of the road, he and the enfiine were soon
dashed to utoms. Gen. Taylor has hold of the
starting bar of our Government, and is withoutthe
knowledge necessary to manage it. He is just
coming to the uneven road, and it will be well fo,
the people, if in the general siash the governmert
locomotive is notinjured 5o as not to be worth pe

Huxaany o Rervmvic.—The Hungariun Na
tional Diet asscbled at Debreszin, has proclaim
ed the honse of Hapsburgh no longer sovereign
of Hungary, and erected the kingdom of Hungary,
including Transylvania and Croatia, into an inde
pendent republic, electing Kossuth its first Presi
dent, by nuiversal acelamation.
We have strong confidence that this republie
will live and last. It is well planted in the soil. It
did not grow ont ofany office-sceking desire for a
change of the form o; govermment, but from a
#pirit ol resistance to encroachments on long-en-
Joyed rights.
Hungary was originally an elective monarchy,
with adiet or legislature chosen by the nobles,
Since Ferdinand, brother ot Chales V., was e
lected the sovereign, by a fechng of pride and
loyalty, the sovereignty has been continued in the
house of Hapsburgh, a house which, by various
means, but chiefly marriage, has gained the sover
eignty of Bohemia, Austria, Lombardy, and heaven
knows how many other kingdomws, but Hungary
has never had any other connection with the Aus.
trian Empire, than owning allegiance te the same
sovercign. That sovereign is always sworn to
govern according to the laws and constitation of
the kingdom. But the late Emperor of Austria,
liking his absolute kingdoms better than his limited
ones, under the wily Metternich, set himnself to
humble Hungary and set aside its constitution.
He commenced a war of stealthy aggression npon
its nobles, and the latter at last found it necessury
to make common enuse with the masses in resist
ance. Let the contest go as it will, the people
are sure to be the gainers, for the nobles have not
only consented to shoulder their portion of the
L)ublic burdens, which they had never before borne,
ut they have actnally gmmcd in fee simple 1o the
peasants the portions of land which they formerly
caltivated as tenants at will. By this grant, more
than half a million of peasant families are invested
with absolute ownership of from thirty to sirty acres
cach, or more than 20,000,000 «cres among them all,
All aristocratic privileges, lay as well as ecclesiasti
cal are üboli-heJ: andallcitizensare equal before the
law, and invested with the right of suffrage, what
ever may be their race or ereed. This was done
by the late diet of Preshurgh, and is the reason
why the brave peasants rose in a body and hurled
back the mercenary minions of Austria. The
Hungarian nobles nust be a very different race of
men, for conrage and intelligence, from what they
have been taken for, if, with popularity thns fairly
purchased, they cannot bid defiance to Austria and
Russia.
Russia is said to have promised her aid and al
ready to have put 130,000 men in motion to invade
'l'mnn'ylvnnm, Eut it is said trere is nothing to pre
vent the Hungarians from cutting off their ap
proach to Vienna by railroad, or 1o save their vic
torious armies from taking possession of that city
before they can arrive. "I'he very fact that Aus
tria has ca{led in the aid of the Cossacks will prove
a vast moral loss to her, and we may conl'ufemly
look for a signal defeat of the northern hordes and
a rally of all Europe for liberal principles. Let
the working people but know that the soil is theirs,
and it will be invaded in vain.—Bos. Chronotype.

Tue New Yorx Democracy.—~The Albany
Argus, alluding 10 the Address of democratic
members of the Legislature of New York in con
nection with the call for the State Convention for
the nomination of State Officers, speaks of the
causues of our divisions, in the following sensible
remarks ;=
“Upon the slavery question, which has been
made the pretext for :}ivision and the basis of a
third or northern pariy, in avowed hostility to the
democratic party and its candidates, we coneur in
the impressions of the committee, that there is no
essential difference of opinion among the demo
cratic masses. They are not the advocates of sla
very, nor in favor of its extension. It is as unfair
as it is sinister, to assume that because they leave
to every democrat, of whatever section of the
Union, the enjoyment of his own sentiments on
this subject, and zecnuse they decline to introduce
it as a party test, they therefore favor its extension
10 States or territories now free. And yet the
allegation so pertinaciously asserted, has misled
some fair-minded men into the beliel' that the
democrats, because they decline to accept the
“free soil” issue and test, are the advocates of sla
very. :
“’l'hat the union of the democrats of the State,
in common earnest efforts, upon their old and
well-known principles, is much to be desired, is
un leniable. That they are fast approaching each
other, and that they will as a hm};'. be found co
operating with the Democratic State Committee,
need not be doubted. Nor will we doubt that
such nomination will be made. as will command
the favor and receive the support of a'l who desire
the unity, the harmonious action, and the pre
dominance of the Democratic Party.”
Tux Deatn or Worrn.—The destroyer has

The {'estilence that wasteth at noon day, has

memory of that chivalrous man ! Of strong intel
lect—a warm heart—a noble soul—a spirit that
knew not danger—Worth was beloved. As a
soldier and a gentleman, his accoux;liuhmenu were
complete. His heart was all Avkricax He
loved his country, and in defence of its rights his
own life with him weighed nothing.
In the late war with Mexico, Worth had no su
perior. He achieved most brilliaut results, by his
skill and personal bmvux. Never shall his ser
vices be forgotten by the American petNfle. E
Gen. Worth was born in Hudson, New York,
in the year 1794. In the war of 1812 he greatly
distinguished himsell' with Scott, at the battles of
Chippewa and Niagara. His more recent carcer
of brilliant achievements is too fresh in the mem
ory of all, to admit of comment by us at this time.
He died in Texas. His wife is at Patterson, New
