We yesterday committed one of the most ir>nioral act* that we bar** been guilty of aiuce this paper lu- been tu existence. We beat the whole united Holy Alliance Wall street press, and all the small fry, out of two days later from England, aud thirty day. later Iroui the Hot Indies; which news the immoral " Herald'' published exclusively. The public know this; but it is our duty to tell them of the effect it produced on the afternoon papers The " Commercial" was *o mortified that it would uot publish the new- at all in its regular edition; but sueakiugly seut oft'?lips to its subscribers in Canada. Charles King was so indignant at our immoral conduct, and so enrajed at George Griswoid's severe letter, that he lift the city suddenly, i and as George Griewoid says, if he was never to retarn it would be " better for the community." 'J he I n - 1 *H*?at i?arf of ih#? news. " I lilies usu i, >bv , ? ??, and gife us 110 credit lor it. '1 lie " Tattler' was the only paper that behaved manly and honest ; they published the news and told the truth ab >ut it. But the miserably poor poet, Bryant, who mi? onducts the 44 Post," flounced and floundered all verts of ways ab >n? the new*. At last he silenced the little conscience he hud I .ft, turned a be 'garly news-thief, stole halfof it bodily, and hashed up the reet, pretending that he got it from the "Bombay Ti mes." Poor miserable pilferer, this poor poet, by this last sueaking act, has sunk himself below the lowest depths of contempt. Poor Bry ant, the pilferer of foreign news ! Two Days Later from Canton. The 44 Loadoa," Capt. Biaco. arrived last evening from Canton. She left Wbampoo on the 22d of April, and has brought u? the 44 Canton Press'' of the '2D h of April. This is tho latest w e have had direct from Can- 1 tea, and the intelligence appears to be of the same ma tare as per last advices. The" Wellesityhad left Singapore for .Macao, making ' he fourth English man ofw ai in the Chinese seas. There are rumors of an intended e\pulsion of all foreigners from Canton, but we know not whether they deserve attention. It is now confidently a.- i >erted thatan Imperial edict, addressed to Lin, has been received, in which the Imperial displeasure, about some of his acts, is made known to hiin. The Taestac, or Admiral, is said to have a share in tbi* reprimand, which, probably, is ?n account of the affair at the Rogue, and the false reports forwarded to Peking regarding it. It is al?o said that the trus -tate of the afVuir of the Hilhaino has reached the imperial ears. Lin is said to have been degraded three degrees in rank. A Chinese boat, laden with raw silk and silk piece good*, destined for Macao, has lately been seized by the Manda in*, on the pretext that her cargo was intended for the English Mr Snow, the \merican Consul, has arrived here from Canton. Of late, several vessels have experienced difficulties ou entering the Rogue, the Chinese refuting to allow them to pass, on t'le plea that they have taKen in their cargoes at Tungkoe. In some instances these duliculties have been overcome, hut several vessels are waiting outside. The rumour that some especial messengers are to be sent to this * tflem-n', iu order to institute an inists the state of trade, ha, ziven rise to many surmises. Still it might have beers considered 1 one of the many talc*, of which this place is always fell, if the Mandarins bad not yet commenced opera tions. Two merchants dealing in silk, were seized, withont any other chsrge be.ng brought against them except that of baring traded. Wc trust that this i? a mere mistake, which such gentlefolks a* the Mandar'n* are constantly in the habit of committing ?still it is a grievous one. Considerable consternation has spread far and wide aiuotigst the native dealers, for none know* whose turn will b* next ? VV'e flatter ourselves, however, that u e shall have reason to report m >re favorably?for, after all the assurances from the provincial goverume it, it woulJ , be, indeed, a inost unpleasant matter to di-t'.rh the I shortlived tranquillity which the industrious p-ople bare lately enjoyed.

The week?the great week in Host?n?the week par ercellnece?has begun with beautiful weather? | exciting scene*, and some rather dr II occurrences. 1 Yesterday was a gloomy, dark, easterly, e>>ld, wet, disagreeable, melancholy, suicidal day. Towards night the clond* that lowered nrer the western sky, 1 began to clear away, and gradually the ?t rs, brilliant as diamonds, began to sparkle over the bra- I vens. We took a walk round the famous common, and the water, the trees, the gnlden hues of twi- 1 light gave an indescribable rurhan'n.ent to |be scene The sun rose thi* m iming in unclouded majesty, over the turrets, towers, ai d half finished mo nnment on Hunker's till and v e buvr a n.n some of tbe mo*t delicious weather that ever cheered a human ?oul. The strangers from all parts of t'r cnuntrt are crowding into the eitj?Hi-UjSmin Walk in* Leigh i is here?and bn*tle of every kind i? r.polly enlarg- I iag its circle of action Tbi* morning began w th two little carina* and interesting *cenca? two little 1 exciting meeeineat*. just by a ay of beginning the : week The first of the** se-nes vi> exhibited m i the saloon of the theatre, where the choicest of bote* were pat up to auction, for fanny Kl*?b r's J if?but?the second, the public examination, in the ; t'oart House, of Mrs Kinney, who is accused nl poisoning two husbands, and dii orcinj a third. At eleven o'clock.,in the iewer saloon of lbr theatre, opposite I'reiaoiit Hotel,a very gcntlemaely cmwd collected, for the purpose of aft' tiding the ale of tickets. Precisely at the ho ir. Mr. Haskell, (I taink that is hi* nam*) of the firm of I oolidge \ Haskell, took his stand near the box oflice, with hi> hammer in hand. On the opposite side of the saloon, an elderly personnie. with a rosy faee, some what bronaed with the weather, stood tip on some portable steps. ? ftetiMemea" said he, " take care or yoar pocki ts ?there's pirkp >rk t? in the room.'"

At the close of the Miction, Fanny herself pm>se< through the tail of the crowd, unnoticed and un knewu, to the rehearsal, attended only by her ros] faced man servant, plurup as a peach. She wai dressed in light pink drapery, with a white >carf am straw bonuct turned up in front, her two eyes glar iug from beneath, like two stars in the face oi lieu Ten. As she passed through, only one or two ivh' | had seen her in New York, recognised the sylph and gave the wovd, "there's Fanny,there's Fanny,' just as she disappeared into the interior of the thca tre. Many of them gazed after her, u$ if tliey would pierce the wood and stone, but generally there seems to be a good deal of compoiuic here about the whole business. Yesterday afternoon, she took a walk around the mall and common, accompanied by her cousin, and her servant walking behind. She was dressed very simply?a sort of a tartan dress?a large shawl, and a straw bonnet. For all the world she looked like a sensible, unpretending New England girl, coming or going to church. So much for Fanny. The other little bit of excitement, with which this wonderful week begins, was exhibited at the Police Court. It had been given out. at the close of last week, that >Irs Kinney would be examined today, at eh rcn o'clodk. AMprdiii^ly, soon after breakfast, idlers, loungers, lawyers, loafers, boys, and women began to colieat hi groups aroqnd the Court House, and at the several eorners in the neighbourhood of Court street. Thin assemblage was altogether of a different character from that which'cmwded the saloon of'.he theatre. The one crowd were inspired with the desire of seeing a fair danscuic? the other, to see a beautiful murderess of two husbands. Around the doors, 1 found several groups of boys, from ten to fourteen years of age, calmly discussing what was to be the punishment if she should be found guilty. About lialf-paA eleven, ... . ? ?I 1. J Vrs kinuey, aecoinpanieJ oy iwo omcers, was iru into tin; Couit room. I was retreaiing through a private passage that lead* from Court street to School street, when I met. a middle aged, rather good looking woman, dressed in deep mourning, with a straw hat, hanging on the arm of a man, and walking along towards the Police otHce, with a hurried step. I knew none of the parties, but singular enough, there was somethiug in their air and manner that made me -ay to myself, ' there's the woman accused of murder." I returned and followed them, and found that tnv presentiment a as right She was hurried ttirough the pa-sage, and led before the Justices. This case has created an extraordinary srn?ati n in Boston. Her last husband, Mr. Kenney, ?x> a saddler, and lived in Market street. She herself kept a milliner)'store in H.anlman street, u.id bad among her customers some of the iuo?t resectable people of the city. She will be tried next November. I will touch o/Tthe politicians in my next. I think the present age of the world is the drollest, the fuu*i:est, the odde-t, the most extraordinary, that h.ts taken place since Noah left the Ark.

In every re?peet. outwardly and inwardly?in the dre??, look*, and demeanour of the people?in the air of neatness around yon, I never saw two cities, "> far apart, resemble each other so uitirh as Boston and Edinburgh. Edinburgh i? the seat of thought aid ph ilosophy for the eld world??o i? Boston for the new. Edinburgh is Calin, and ipiiet, aid intellectual?so i? Boston. Edinburgh, on the sabbath day, i? as still almost as Eden was on the morning of the creation?to is Boston.

" that is pretty fair"?" that is pretty good.*' But I mint go into par'irnlirs. Alan early hour, the carnages, containing the Boston haul Ion, began to slrive tip to the s nlranee of the theatre, opposite the Tremont Hotel, and there discharged their fair Ctrgoes.

There j he *al in one of the boxes, surrounded by two or three generations, all on the tip toe of expectation to see the fair German give them a specimen of her ' t divine art. The pit was also full of very intelligent i looking people, every wrinkle of their faces seeming both critical and curious. The prelude passed oft without receiving any attention?the a hole theatre only talking and i itching and smiling and looking and gazing in every di rcction Vl'tcr the close of the prelude, the pit be- I Cmi to n.ove?hoot, whittle, clap, and make noise*, hut all in tolerable uiodcration, and with some dcl gree of harmony, nearly a* much, I the gLit, as did the orchestra execute its execrable music.

Every thing was now ready?the bell rang and the eiirlxin rose. Funny dne? not make her appearance in Lauretta till a few seconds after the raising i f the curtain. At length she issued very quietly from a side door, arrayed in white short drapery, and a yellow boddice. There was a shout raised from the pit?not too much, hut just enough ; " le?whistle?whistle?hoo?h iO?hoo?oo? oo?clapp?p?'p?p?Pi" ending in a a liremH|Pt?ce?ee?re.

It is mostly pantomime? littyflpBcin<r. Towards the middle and close of the ' | lirst act, Fanny begins lo let out a reef occasionally. ' i The house, during these preliminary movements, ' 1 kept very quiet ; with some visible signs of di-ap- 1 ' pointiuent. She did not here, as in New York, make t her iltbut iu the du-hing Cracorirnnt. At length she executed one of those singularly graceful movements, coming down ihc stage on the tips of her ' toes?half dance, half walk, which first so electri ' tied the Parisian*. This was done with great drli- ' . caey and neatness?her face covered with an arch ' I smile.

Yet ' there were no " bravo.*"? no "huzzas"?revrral I said, " capital," " well done"?and one enthusiast ' ! solemnly pronounced it u pretty fair," " pretty ' well." She went through the rest of the ha'lef. first \ and second acts, with pretty considerable spirit, and received pretty considerable applause. Hut 1 iuu*t ' in candor say, thai 1 think 1 have ?e< n her dance with inconceivably more spirit and animation in s New York and Loudon.

I am so full of topics to touch upon, that 1 scarcely know where to begin, or when begun where to end. Yesterday the Ladies' Fair was o|iened for exhibition in tiuinry Hall. This is a splendid granite building, standing between Fauueil Hall and the harbor. About 1(1 o'clock tk? doors were opened to the public, aud from that hour, up to 9 last evening, a continuous stream of visitors uoured into the in terior to take a look at the ladies'and their brilliant ware*. The approach to the hall i? up a stair case, passing over a temporary arch from the street to the second story. On entering7, the visitor is struck with aslonishineut at the magnificence, richness, and e\1ent of the nwrmble. It will take nie the whole of this afternoon and evening to collect the materials to give a full and graphic account of i this brilliant affair. On my first visit, I could pay no attention to the rich wares and merchan- i dise which are there exhibited for sale. The ! crowd of fair and enchanting merchants occupied every moment. 1 never saw Mich a display of New Lugland beauty, grace ami intelligence before.? j Fanny's drbitt presented a beautiful array?but I do \ vciily think the coup ?''?./ of u,e Hunker Hill fair far surpassed it. Ladies are here fiom all the sur rounding towns, attending Mulls. Dedham, Roxbury, Cambridge, Chinlestown, Medford, Lexington, and numerous otiier towns are represented.? F.ach stall has a sign with the name of the tmvn, in large letters. Some of ilie young ladies from the country were extremely beautiful, with most bril liant complexions, and fine, full fronts, very much like the style of beauty in F.ngland. The Boston ' iadios had several stalls, and some of these predated great attractions. The whole extent of C^uincy Ilall was occupied with these stalls; and those who have visited Boston can forma conception of the magnificeuc?of the fair. The avails of :he fair are to be appropriated for the completion of he monument on Bunker's llill, and a more praiseworthy object could not engage the atteution of any neople. After sauntering in these apartments for a couple jf hours, we retired among the crowd, and were tbout returning to our residence. On passing the sutrance of Fanueil Hall, a very respectable looking >ld gentlemen accosted us?" Would you like,"ssid te, "to take a look at Fanuail Hall!" " With pita>ure," said I?" i saw you were strangers," conin ned our polite cenducter, " and I thought you would like to see the cradle of the revolution ." 'The cradle of the revolution V said Mrs. B??. WThy it is called the cradle of the revolution T"? j 'Because" replied I, "the first thoughts and purpo- I ?e> that led to the Araericun>evolution germinated ' here. Here the first town meetings were held to resist foreign taxation. In this venerable hotue originated the whole movement that spread over ;he continent, and under the c< mmand of Washingon, established in seven year?, an independent petiole." " Then lets go and see it." We entered, accompanied with our polite conluctor. The first object, that strurk our attenion was a splendid chandelier, manu'acturt d here or the House of Representatives at Washington I'his is a most magnificent piece of furniture, and ivill loek well in the interior of that beautiful hall We then examined the portraits and busts which idoi n the upper end of the hall. There was John Hancock, here old Mr. Fanned, then John t^nincy Adams?here the bust of Ins father John Adams lint the most splendid object in that hall?and one of the finest, probably, on this continent? is Cilbert Stewart's original porrait of Washington In this magnificent work of art, the venerable patriot is represented just on the eve of mounting his w hite war horse, after having crossed the Delaware in pursuit of the enemy. The river, the houses, the trees, the hills, the heavens, are seen in the hu/y hack ground. The horse it standing with his hind legs towards the spectator, and his head half round, snorting fire and fury. Washington stands by hit side, with one hand holding the bridle, and the right hand (irmly gra?ping his military hat. The expression of his face is magnificent ?there is a marked compression of the lips, which indicate that he has just formed his purpose, and that nothing can turn him a-ide from It. Mrs H ga/et intently forse>oral minute* upon the portrait. "Now," said she, ' this painting is w orth every thing else 1 have seen to-day."?"What! more interestins than the fairl" asked 1. "Ten tunes?a thousand times?what's the lair bill trumpery?but look at that splendid man. !*ook at his compressed mouth ?look at his firm hand. He seems to say?if inusI amd %hafl he done?there is no trifling with such a man" This paintiiit l< uni|uesti>>nably the* rlrf American portrait painting. The nniuernua copies taken from it liiiT* t)i? lineaments and proportion*, but none the ?<>ul, mind, and genina whirh distinguish (ho original. On the opposite rod of ih* ball, I nbarrred a portrait of Grn. Harriann, recently paintrd by lleyward, alio went to Xnrth Hend for that porpn?r. Compared with Stewart** Wa?b ingtmi, it i? hardly removed from linns; a mrrr daub.

Thia lady ought ? H to have a bumper, and we hope the frequenter* of the garden will be of our opinion. Chatham Theatric.?The inclemency nf the weather last night bad very little influence on the Chatham. There was an exctllent boose, and the entertainment- ware highly acceptable. Sanford, the negro dancer, is superior, ir some points, to any j^H other performer in his otiers, we under- |^H stand, to dauce against any body for a wager $200. 1? there a man that dares shake a beef with A strong bill for to-night, Tom and Jerry, a Na- V bob for an Hour, and the Spectre Pilot. A fine cast for Tom and Jerry?this amusing thing is admirab'y played, and the other pieces will be equally well done. We are glad to learn thai Thome has a H engaged Mrs. Mossop for the season. She is a capital actress, and bids fair to become a great favoritn at the Chathan. Browne plays in one of his best chaiacters, and Wood plays Bill Jones, of course.

Shortly after the murder a letter was received from Natchez., purportitig to be signed by the same indtvidtial. lit which lte acknowledged himself the au- II tliorofthc deed. The St. Louis paper, from w hich we gather these particulars, suys : "The murderer, Hughe*, many years ttgo was extensively en-*{ raged in circulating uinterfoi* money, ami was detected and aentenced to ten years' imprisonment in the Kentucky penitentiary; shortly alter the expiration of which time he was seen in this county."
