THE DEED DONE.—Thu Madisonian officially'
announces the long threatened change in thu Custom
House at Philadelphia. Jonathan It *?«rts, vcnoi«lU»
fir years and irrepr>.»ael»able in integrity, who was ap
piiuteJ CcllecUir ul* the jvirt of Philadelphia by Mr. 1
|»r hi.nseif, has been removed by that gen Homan, who, it
he was coiniuilied :i • farther, w.i», in rcs^vt * > removals
and appointments. pledged by lrsowii Inaugural Address,
u> conform to the Whig creed. 1 et Jonathan Roberts
has lice11 removed, and Thomas ,S. Smith appointed l o|
leetor in hts stead;—and w hy has this been done? 1 las
Mr. Roberts been negligent or faithless in the discharge
of hia duties? Has he been guilty of any crime, either
of omission or commission? Nothing of t!»e sort is allr
ged. Why, then, is this venerable man, removed? It i*^
precisely because Mr. Roberts refuted to make himself'
n tool of thu President. Thu President required
him to guillotine some forty or fifty of his sub
ordinates—the victims, of course, of that system of
espionage which the “reward and punishment” nfopinion
is always sure to generate—ami with the spirit of a free
horn American Whig/' he refused to lend himself to so
vile a purpose—It * disdained to do what ho had con
demned in his predecessor—and thu consequence of his
0/Wurr to a great Whin; principle, to w hich Mr. 1 y
as still tin re solemnly bound than himself, by
**. i* voluntary pledge on the assumption of the du
ties of the Presidency, is the deprivation ot his office, *
and its bestowal upon another,—w ho, from its acceptance
titidt -ranch eiieumsiaticcs, we presume, is prepared to j
tibey Executive orders, however repugnant to his own
wiiae of propiiety ami justice. Thus, ti e successor of
Mr. Van Hu mi, phdgrd to reloiiu the abuses of his Ad
ministration, is daily guilty of thair repetition, under far !
more aggravating circumstances.
Since the rein val of Mr. Jonathan R»b» rts fi mi

oflicers lnvc* been guillwiined, ami others were marked

the very man from whom he received Ids appoint an nt.
•Vorl/i Carolina (Jerrymandering.— It is already
announced ill the North Carolina Loco Foeo papers, that i
in laying off that State in»o Congressional districts, the
counties will be so arranged as to make 7 Loco Foeo
and 2 W hig districts—“nnd this, to.*, (remarks one of
ilu*iu,) without any thing like gerrymandering”! Oh
no—of course not!!! A State, giving 5000 Whig <
majority, is to Ihj so la hi off, as to give to the minority
7 out of‘J Representatives—and ye t no cheating! Tell
that to the marines—tin* sailors won’t believe it.
My the. way, we have heard that a wi ll known citizen
of Missouri, who, from the three of old habit, sometimes
takes it upon himself to regulate political mntti rs in
Virginia, has prepared f.*r hi* L-.co Fuco frienc s in the

which inv memory of the (acts will enable me to make
!i w dl be remembered by your readers that some time

'body of a pedlar, who bad been tniMiug tor some time,
bad Is-eu aeenlentally diacuvcrcd, after a heavy ram,
w liiih bad partially r\|im«l it. This was a lew union
from Halilu.v court house, and \\ illiam So gall was ihcu
suspected and cnimiiillcd. On the dd instant. Ins ease
came on I r trial before Judge Leigh, and the whole of
that day was consumed in the examination .1 testimony
and argument by counsel. Of the * rgmueul I ean sav
little, as I heard only Mr. Flounu ) *s sp riu 1 and touch
ing appeal in la-hall uf the prisoner. The facts of the case
proved w ere substantially as follows:
On the Jib day of March last, in the evening, a <»cr
man pedlar, travelling on lt»o?, and carrying a pack, cal
led at the residence o! Mr. Kdinoudsou, who li\»s not
far from Halifax court house. lie was a youth uf about
17 yi .rsof age, of amiable dejMitim nt, and it appears
was highly res pelted and kindly regarded by all wllo had
dealings w ith him. Hu remained at Mr. F.dmondsou’s
that night, and after tea exhibited his goods—Stegall
was present. Amongst the articles which were* purlieu
lady noticed by Mr. Kdiuondson, were two \«>t pat
terns, < I peon liar figure, one of \y hie 11 he bought f r his
son. Tho »tlu r was much admired by Stegall, but In*
would not give the price required by the pedlar. Mr.
balm unison likewise bought a stock at tin* same time
for himself. When Stegall first came in, be asked the
pedlar if lus name was not ('rouse, and said if it was, in
had been talking about him. Tim pedlar denied that it
w as his name; anil Stegall, w hose manner was at first
angry. expressed lus saMslnetion, alio apologi/eu lor Ills
manner—Hut a lady presi in knew the pedlar's name to
he Crouse, and so told Mr. Kdmondsoti, who was vtxeil
wi!It the youth tortho falsehood) hut he explained h\
saving, he was among strangers, and was not hound to
give Ins name. The truth of the muter was, that

eairiod fr.ni the court-house on March Court day, b\
Stegall, and w« i show u at the court house, as purchases
of that day, to Kdiimiidsoii’s son.

And be was told. heratlHr Parker bad last s* i n the- ped

Ii furlln r appear <1 that a day or twoaftcr the pedlar was
last set n. Stegall showed I'blmonds’>n a g«dd watch key,
which lie said lie had bought of a negro for a trifle—
iliiskc v pri vi'fl to be the property of tin* deceased.
Tiif.ne were found at Siegalfs, si vi ntecn (b rmaii silver

pedlar’s: none of which were puiclmscd by Stegall at

at any other place.—Also, in a Imru of Mr. Kdinoud
hoii’h. 5lie ki y ol wliieli Sti'gall Kept, and in fact produ
ceil at the trial, w a* found some oftlit* articles which Kd
moiidsoii l ad particularly noticed tin* evening Crouse
staid w ii’.i him,and was identified further by the partner
of Crouse. The luck, however, was an ordinary pad
lock, and might pusibly he opened by many ke ys, &. was
in fact opened l»v another, wlieu those gomlsw ere obtain
I’d. I lure was evidence td the tracks ol horses, which
ippeared to have hern rode up near to tin* body on two oc
['Hsiotts, and then t » have turned tiff*—These tracks cor
responded with the iracks of two hurst s that Mr. Kd
inundson owned, and the apparent age ofihotrackscorn s
p;aided with the lime at which Stegall rode those hors***
severally to a blacksmith’s shop, not very tor in that di
rection from Kdmondsnn’s—and on one occasion Stegail
was set'll passing through a plantation, along a path not
far distant, which was prohibited. The. witness stated
he showed coiiKidcraldo p*rttirbaliou when he called
out to him. “Ah, wt have caught you at last, havewes”
About the middle of March, Mr. I .ewellyn sentluSiegall
to demand payment ofa bill, and Stegall promised to pay
at. Mcreli C. urt, (the i&tli.)—and acroidingly paid a
Vllt note. It was in proof that the pedlar iiad such a
note a slii.rt time 11 f re his death—'There was saiiilai
proof in it ft renco to a ten dollar Kxchaugo Bank note.
Stegall brought no evidence to acuutil lor his pt^sessioii
of any of these articles. At the examining court. I un
derstand. he proved by a w iincss (Blanks, before iiw ti
liuncd, I 1h lieve,) the pftrehase of some articles in his
jiossession from another pthoii; but that evidence he die
not introduce cu his trial. The commonwealth, I w ar
informed. had rebutting testimony eit that point. Si mt
time in April, on a Sunday evening, on the* II vc r hank
a game t f “hurift-citji” w as prop sod by Stegall, and In
produced first a purse, which appeared to he full of coin
hut that he put hack hastily, and pulbd out another
more than half lull, from uhich he paired several piccn
of silver, saying lie had “a plenty of money.” ’The poo
session of other articles, fully khntificd as the property
(.f the deer* sc d, was traced to a negro man in the m igh
horhood, who took the. lash a gn at w hile before ant
knowledge of these articles w as admittrd—but finally
hesrod. he !.id f.Ln-i them uu der tl o leve* of a t:rt
k which he i.’Tried hit c erreer- and showed a pla-<

alter hIh-uI twenty minutes, the general rush proclaimed
that they wire reluming lo the bar. Breath less silence
! prevailed; and the name ol « very juror, as it was called,
_ seemed to ring through the serious hall of justice. All
I eyes wi re fixed upon the prisoner, who still sat with

though some ipuckcned pulsation ol the jugular artery in

calm expression. But it was not until the Monday follow

past snfleriiig under a si vi re attack of paralysis—and,
the Washington correspondent of the Daltimnre Sun
-ays, tile symptoms, during the week on the last day if
w hich she tin d. were of an alarming character. The
w riter adds: "The decease of this accomplished lady
w til h ave a ehaam in the social circle not easy to be
lilb d: and to the poor, upon whom her benevolent heart
was i vi r ready to bestow attention arid comfort, the re
membranec of her name w ill lie sweet. Mrs. Tyler liv
ed nod died n ('hrwhim; and although for many months
she laid been subject to sickness and Buffering, in the
midst ef all she could exclaim, ‘.Merciful is the hand of
the land; let him do what Kenneth to Him good.’
She was hi years of ago.”—The funeral ceremony took
place at I o’clock I’. M.on the 12th hist, at the Pics!
