AUGUSTA, OCT. *.
SUMMARY. ■
Capt. Bunker, of the ship Belfast, ar-
at New-York, has brought des
patches lor our government from the
American minister at St. Petersburg!!.
Mr. Bergmiller, of Bilboa, bearer of
despatches from the court of Madrid to
the Spanish minister Don Onia arrived
At New Nork on the 18th inst. in the
ship Isabella, from Bordeaux.
It is stated in Lang’s Gazette, on the
authority of a gentleman from Gibraltar,
that Mr. Anderson, our consul at Tu
nis, had arrived in the Peacock, having
left the regency in consequence of some
misunderstanding, which might possibly
lead to a rupture with that power.--
TJie cause, it is said, originated in Mr.
J/lllderson having refused to kiss the
hand. This report is very doubt
ful—The d of kissing hands Ju*j
been constantly obsetTKtl by the agents
of every civilized nation, consequently
it could not be objected to by the Ameri
cans, though it is a custom “ more hon
ored in the breach than the observance/'’
We are informed, says a Philadelphia
paper of Sept. 10, that the Franklin, 74,
capt. Stewart, is under sailing orders,
.and will leave the Delaware as soon as
the lion. Richard Rush is ready to embark.
The Franklin is to convey Mr Rush to
London, who is appointed minister plen
ipotentiary to the court of St. James. Af
ter landing the minister, it is said she
will visit (he Mediterranean.
General Scott was lately in Quebec, as
we see by a Quebec Gazette, which cau
tions the garrison officers not to let him
discover too much!
It is now reported, says the Washing
ton Weekly Gazette, and generally
believed, that Mr. Clay has preferred his
seat in congress to a spat in the cabinet.
The steam boat fi om Norfolk, brought
to Baltimore lately, 600,000 dol
lars in specie, for the United States
Hank. .
The schooner Janus, from Leghorn, lias
on board a part of the MONUMENT to
be erected at Baltimore in honor of
Washington.
The British government is fitting out
I armed vessels to protect their trade a-
I gainst South American privateers.
I A letter from New-Orleans states
■ tliat the Marquis do Moncada, one of the
I most influential characters in Mexico,
Hh:is placed himself at the head of 10,000
I republicans. Gen. Mina is going on pret-
Bty well in Santander.
j In pursuance of orders issued by the
I Executive for the purpose of complying
I with the late requisition of gen. Gaines,
I for two Batalions of militia, to aid in
I chastising the refractory Indians In East
■ Florida, a squadron of cavalry, and ten
I companys of infantry have been detach
■ ed from the counties of Hancock, vV ash
■ ington, Baldwin, Putnam, Morgan,
■ Twiggs. Pulaski, Jones and Jasper, who
I are directed to hold themselves in readi
■ ness to assemble, at a short notice, at
■ Fort Hawkins, where arms and accou
■ laments are prepared for their use.
■ A letter from the commanding officer
I at Fort Scott, of the 13th ult. states,that
I (be Indians were on that day to give gen.
■ Raines their final answer, whether they
I would deliver up the murderers of our
I citizens. If they comply with the de
■ mand, hostilities will he averted—if not,
I signal chastisement will be inflicted on
■ (hem.
I We learn by a gentleman directly from
I Head Quarters, (Fort Montgomery) that
I gen. Gaines, who was then at St. Ste-
I phens, intends visiting Georgia in a few
■ days; and that but little, expectation ap
■ peared to be entertained in that quarter
■ ofthe. country, of an approaching rupture
■ with the Indians. It is probable, there
■ fore, the troops from this state will not
■ ta called into service.— Journal.
The ‘‘colonel Irvine of New-York”
I Mentioned as having succeed general
■ IFGregor in command of the forces on
I Amelia Island, is in factcol. Irwin, late-
I fy Pennsylvania, and
I f* ®ember of the last congress of the U.
■ States.
Various suggestions have been thrown
P ul) Hc prints, intimating that
■‘" r * Gallatin, our Minister in Frence,
complained to our government that
■be has cause to be greatly dissatisfied at
■~ e reception,official and personal, which
meets with from the French govern
■“ient: and an appeal is made to the Edi
■..rß National Intelligencer as to
■\ ie truth of this report. Thus called up
■7®! we can only say, that we have no
■ lowledge of such facts as are stated,
■ that all that we have heard on the
••‘“ject goes to contradict them.
U* following extract from Lady Mor
-8 (formerly Miss Owenson) work on
■ just published, will shew how
>
little foundation there \*as for thefable,
which first appeared in a New-York pa
per,of the Duchess o£ Angouleme’s hav
ing, in the presence of the whole Court,
treated the Lady of to
France with rudeness by turning her
back on her because she could not an
swer her salutation in French. Ridicu
lous as this story may be, it lias been se
riously made the ground of a reported
1 misunderstanding between our Minister
i and the French authorities,
i f ll page 197 of the London edition ol
j Lady Morgan’s work may be found the
following:
“It is a very singular circustance, that
(he return of the French emigrants from
England; after twenty five year’s resi
dence in that country, has absolutely ad
ded nothing to their stock of acquirements
in the English language or literature.-—,
the numbers whom I met in society,
who had resided in England, 1 cm id ne
ver get one to speak to me in English,
with the exception of the Prince Louis
de Trimouelle, and the Prince de Beau
veau. The usual reply was, upon all oc
casions, “J’entends {’Anglais maisje ne
le parle pas,” (1 understand English, but
don’t speak it.)
Gallatin, the American Ambassadress,
was presented to the Duchess d’Angou
1-me, who addressed her in French.—
Being informed that Mrs. G. did not
speak French, her royal highness ex
pressed her regret to Mr. Gallatin that
she could not address his lady in Eng
lish, as she could Hot speak that lan
guage.” Nat. Intelligencer.
COMMUNICATED.
DEPARTED this life on Monday
night last, Captain ICeh heath Mac
kenzie, of the 4iit Battalion United
States’ Artillery, in the 31st year of his
age —His remains were interred in St J
Paul’s Church-Yard on the evening of
tlie day after, with the honors of war and
Masonic rites, attended by a numerous
assemblage of citizens—Captain Mac
Kenzie had for some months been sta
tioned at this place on the recruiting
service, and was much esteemed, as an
officer and a gentleman, by those who
had the pleasure of his acquaintance;
we have but litttle information concern
ing the leading circumstances of his life,
we only know that he was appointed a
Lieutenant of the United States’ army,
and was one of the unfortunate captives
at the memorable defeat of lieut. col,
Boaestier,inCana«!a,by a force of British
and Indian Troops, in an early stage of
the war—Tt was not only his fate to be
a prisoner of war, but he was singled out
(with others) as a victim of sanguinary
vengeance. He was inarched to Que
bec and from thence conveyed to Eng
land, and confined for a period little
short of two years, and was only libera
ted at the termination of the war. Con
jecture can but faintly imagine the state
of his feelings and bodily sufferings du
ring his confinement, (in a foreign land)
for he was belt! as a subject of the most
barbarous vengeance. In Ins death the
army has sustained the loss of an honor
able member, and the amiable compan
ion of his bosom her only earthly con
solation—A generous community will
mingle (heir sympathy with her distress,
and exclaim to the spirit of the deceas
ed, farewell, warrior and patriot.
