A highly respectable gentleman over forty years residence in this ty, with one oyer twenty years in Williamsburgh, together with members of the myself, a resi dent of this city near twenty-five years, did open and examine the roll very carefully, and could not find ten name of persons resident in Brooklyn. True, we did find two or three we knew had been dead tome years, (to their disgrace, the honorable names of John Hanctce and Stephen Hopkins,) the fao similiea of which were most conspicuous. i This shows most conclusively what the RUM MIES' will do to affect their object To rob the graves of their inmates to add numbers to their list, it sacriligious.

The inference we drew, was that the grave yards and Greenwood Cemetery had been visited by them, and that they had copied largely therefrom to swell the list of names knowing tliat few living ones of respectability could be found engage in such a We found, jtoo, that hand had done most of the signing.

Motion for a new trial of the brothers Skupib-ski, for the murder of the boy Lehman, wat ar- gued this 'morning by Mcssi and Brown in fayori nnd Attorney Gep.ernUReod in opposition. A I I The toatt ovcr-rlilcd tlie motion, and Judge la, i i V.

j. I who was deeply 'affected, pronounced the following sentence ol dc'atli, which was sub sequently translated into Polish Matuias Skipinski and Blaisb Skupivski A jury of your own selection, after an impartial and laborious consideration oi mo ensiles pi a ferred against you by the representatives of the Commonwealth, have louna yoa gumy oi me willful and deliberate murder ol Jacoo wannn. With the verdict which now stands recorded agniust you, th court are entirely satisfied be- llAVtnv a Wft da that it was fully Justified the evidence upon which it was based, which, although entirely eireunf antial, was to conclusive in it nature as to dispel every reasonable doubt of vour participation in the crime of which you h.ra Wn convicted. In view of your awfully solemn situation, I desire to avoid taying any- .1 thing that may unnecessnrmy uu your dis tress. For.

however you may led, it comports not with the dignity of the law, neithor it In accordance with its humane teaching and opera tion to -embitter your remaining days on earth by a needless repetion of the details. i In vindication, however, of the awful sentence which I am about to pronounce, and with the hope that the last few words -Which I shall ltd dress toyou may have some influence in Inducing you to regara in a proper tight the crime committed against an inoffending brother, it is proper on this solemn occasion to remind you of its enormity a crime against which the most powerful in stinctsofour nature revolts, and which is in di rect violation of the divine command 'Thou shalt do no murder." Life is the most precious of precious gifts. No man can trifle with that which his maker has entrusted him, and be guiltless much less can he be excused in taking the ne oi another ana ne who violates tins sacred aW of humanity shall pay with his own, the pe unity of his offending, lou aro soon lo exemplify this truth, sanctioned alike by human and divine enactments, and thus to present to all men an other illustration of the certaiuty with which the eye and arm of Omnipotence follow upon the track of the murderer, laying bear the most bid den actions', and bringing hun to a most speedy accountability. In the retirement of your own house, alone with the unfortunate victim of your cupidity, you slew him, and amid secrecy the most protound, protected, in all probability, by the darkness ot the night the mutilated corpse is placed where, to all human calculation, no eye shall ever again behold it But a few straggling hairs, loosed from their confinement, became locked in the ice, and are there firmly held until the body is discovered and disiohumed. You, how ever, had fled, no one knew where.

Weeks passed, und you were undetected, when a single unguarded look, which no human foresight could have anticipated, betrayed you aa the murderers ol Jacob Lehman. Before I end my painful duty as the minister of the law, whose voice I utter, not my own, let me remind you thai although your crime be great, it is not beyond forgiveness. God is as merciful a just, and willing to pardon and forgive, and all may, through the meditation of the Redeemer, be saved from the consequences of their transgression. Your doom is a solemn warning to all others. In the full strength of your manhood, in the bloom of life together, and at the same time, the children of one mother, in a strange land you are about to be conveyed to a felon death, and a dislioDorable grave.

The stern requirements of retribute justice de mand of uie now the imposition of the sentence of the law. it is therefore considered and adjudged by the Court that the prisoner at the bar, Mathias Skupinski, be taken hence, to the jail of the county ot i'hiiadelphia, rrom whence he came, and thence to the place of execution, and that he be there hanged by the neck until he is dead. And may (rod have mercy on hi soul I Blaise was sentenced to death in precisely the same woras as those in tue last paragraph. confession or Matbies, After the adjournment of the Court a large crowu gathered around the prisoners, when conversation took place between Mathias and some of the Court in the German language. Un derstanding tliat language, the writer heard from the prisoner that be was watching at th outside ot the frontdoor, while the third party, the Hun.

garian, was despatehii the deceased; thatwhen he (Mathias) went into the bouse, Lehman was dead, ihe prisoner freely confessed that he cut off one of the boy's hgs, but (aid he took no part in the killing. Mathias expressed a desire, in vprV rtaastnnntA lnnrllnrr tha fliA I Hungarian. He said the authorities should search for him all over Europe and America, Mathias during the whole of this conversation. did not evince anything like sorrow, but a strong reeling against tlie thud party who bad Bed the city. He said tlie Hungarian ought to be hung as well as he.

ArPEARANCE or TUB PRISONERS, tc. Blaise remained, apparently, in a state of stu por. He fixed his eyes upon one object, and teem ed to be absorbed in the sentence of the Court He said nothing at all. Mnthais showed treat attnehment towards his younger brother, and takes every opportunity to vindicate him in Una matter, ile said that Blaise had nothing to do with the murder. The prisoners were conducted out of the Court room, to the Black Maria, by several officers, but I they made no attempt to escape.

It is a maxim among cartuien, that if you would make a galled horse, trot, you must touch him the raw," and the maxim holds as good when applied to galled editors, as it does to dilapidated specimens of the genus horse. Believing in its efficacy in either case, we generally apply it to the editor of the Exjle, whenever he seems inclined lo lag.

If, io the eotlie of our dutie, we have occa. sion to mention the ihost fatniliir factjiu relerence the pa.t oUid ict of the looofouo party, the Eagle imm ediately lets fly heels with peculiar recklessucss of consequences, and generally without tlia sliliteit idea of the result. Thus it is, that he often elevates bis pedestals towards the Star, with as little probability of hitting it, as there was of danger to the moon, when the way-ward urchin cast a bladder at it. His early education having been grievously neglected, he has small knowledge of distances, -and eonse qucnlly when he aim at the Star, his heels rise high that they overbalance bis head, so that he never recovers bis perpendicular, until his nasal protuberance receivi more or less injury, by coming ia coutact with his nearest relative, namely, earth. A few days since, commenting on a resolution passed by tlie Common Council, we had occasion to mention a fe facts, concerning the con ict of the locofoco io reference td estimates foi work.

But no sooner had stated them, than we find the Eagle, with each each particular feather, erect as quills npon the fretful jnircupiue did notevp' se tlia lonluct of the locofocos, with the exclusive intention of exoiting the En gle's vrah bat rely I ajause, while speaking the resolution, we considered a fair etatemeu! ie e-iuaca which led to its adoption, as necessary to its being correctly understood. We claim any merit for the statement, as the facti hive long been notorious, and are well under stood by all who take interest iu the affairs of tin City Government Wliere is there a man who does not know, that i( an old trick of loeofoeoisrti to make bogm estimates for contracts, which, when accepted, are s.ddom pei formed mid it, from a knowledge ol the man, their bids are not nccepted, then comes the cry of party favoritism, and groans of corrup tion. That the Eagle should not relish the resolution, not to be wondered at, sn its pasaage cut oft the editors most' fruitful source of complaint If those who enter estimate we obliged to make s.ittie show of responsibility, the game which the looofoco have so long played, will be blocked, tnd th Eagle be at a loss ir a subject That the resolution is good one, no honest nan can deny that the city should protect itsell against injury from the irresponsible acts of loco- foonism, is equally clear, and the honesty of those who oppose it, can be easily estimated. But Ictus see what the character of the Ea-tilti objections are. The resolution proposes lo protect the city from loss, by the mauouverings irresponsible men.

Now, iu our innocence, we had aupposed that such a resolution might, occasionally, effect man claiming to be a Whig but EajU tall us, no I it can never affect any locofoc. We thank the Eagle for the com-pliaieut, although we do not believe he intended offer it. i It was on of those slipa, which cr-1 sort writing at variance ith their hun. at convic tions are aai occasionally to made Tlie resolu- protects Ihe city from those who have, and still intend to Injure it'; and, consequently, EkiU yiews it as a blow at locofocuism and here we have no disposition to differ with him.
