 Intemperance and Crine.-The Court of Sessions yesterday exhibited a busy and in- s;ruciive, though melancholy sceDe. Fifty six persons were tried. The first four ar five yhaving one after another attributed their mis- conduct 10 intOxication, our reporter noted the names of the other prisoners, as they were called, who made similar confession, and the result was, that out Of the first twenty seyen prisoners who were found guilty, fifteen acknowledged oftheir own accord that intens- perdnce had led them to, the commission of the crimes Of which they we're cunyicted.-- Four others were clearly proved to have been drunk when they violated the law; among whom was a respectable young man. convict t6 of petty larceny, who on the death of an aged mutfler will come into possession of a large estate, and who even5now is allowed by his parent ample means to satisfy every req sOnable wan.. Another case was that of a man named Valentine Sniiiif, who was found guilty 0f a violent assaOlt an his own mother, a woman advanced in years. It was a mat ter of painful interest to see the old lady pros ecuiing her son. She deposed that he had latteriy taken to drinking, and during his fits 0f intOxication had committed such furious assaults upon her us to endanger her life. Her manner. while giving testimony, clearly eyiuc- ed the struggle which was going on between parental afisciien and thu desire of seif-pre- seryati0n. The prisoner was sentenced tO six months hard labor tt Blackwell's Island.

 Pine Sticks acanted.-The Newburypori Herald in giving an account of the close Of the session of the Court of Common Pleas in that town says :--. We shai make only one re- mark more. Before The Co0rt again sits in this town, we trast the Constables will be di- recisd to provide soft pine sticks for the use Of the members 0f the bar. Those gentlemen Tn their leisure moments, are troubled with an itcl, to keep their panket knives employed 1; and some such provision as we have tnention- cd might lung ago have saved the seats and benches, appropriated to the har, from such mutilaii0n as would pnt old Falstafss sword t1 the blush. Perhaps these gentlemen think that, sas they have the privilege of cutting up characters, they ought to be entitled tO the Elesser privilege of cutting up benches"

 We regret tO state, that this m0rning, about n o'clock, the new Steam Flaming estaAlisbment,- an Grern-stresf, belonging tO MessrB. HO,vland and W0olen. took fire and was eniirely consumed very large quan- stiiy 0f Plank, dressed and addressed, was burnt, and caased so great n flame is com :mnnicated fire tn several frame buildings in the nrighhorhood, which were eithersi,nne tiiately destroy ed or necessarily pulled down. Such was the rapidity and intensity of the flames, that n wagon, loading in the yard, with three horses attached. was instantly en-. yeloprd and the sohole consumed. Same ap-l rrehensions were felt for the Medical College, butshe wind fortunately set from the building. and the prompt exrrtinns.o of ihe firemen pre- vcnt+d any damage. The loss sustained, we understand, is goo, ,0O0--no insurance.
