Editors. —Although I have tra velled a great deal during my li(e, I ne ver experienced so many inconveniences us in a jaunt I took a few J lys ago from I this city to . At an early hour 1 took my scut iu the stage, in which there were seven people ; on the hack seat sat an el i derly lady and her daughter ; iu the mid dle a Frenchman, a woman with a sick - ly looking baby, and a fat purse-proud 1 looking citizen, who seemed wrapped up ■ in the consciousness of his own import " ante, and on the front seat a sea-laring . man, a son of Ksculapius and myself. - We soon, however, slopped to take iu another passenger, who, alter keeping ns \ alu'l half hour wailing, made her ap ■ poararu e in the shape of a female ot a l: bout 40 years of age, followed (without l- the least exaggeration) by from'J to 10 ** persons sending messages by her, such as, j “remember b« to John ; tell Mary I’ll ir soon bo up; takv care ol the bonnet,” in great piO.ffsion. Before the lady took her seat, she put in*Uie stage, toge ther with her trunks, bags a .1 bundles . enough, 1 firmly believe, for a person go ing a year’s journey, and that eye-son-, that pest of the traveller, a band-box, . with an injunction from her to the pas sengers to take special care of it, and she wa« just stepping in, when she c ried out “O ! I have forgot the cantelopcs,” and with this a servant was dispatched f into the hour, who soon returned, bring ing a large basket full of those things, and wa* proceeding to placfe them in the .. stage, when the Frenchman, who had displayed great uneasiness at the lady’s * quantity cd trunks, Sic. halloed, “ Ah! ’ ha! madam, mart Hue! more tings! more tings ? eu veritc, madam, dere is no ’ room,” in a great passion, and the rest of ■* the passengers exclaiming against the im propriety of her so doing, she was pre -1 vailed upon to leave them beh'nftl, and * took her scat in sulleu silence and we pro ceeded on our journey. As none of the passengers seemed dia u posed to enter into conversation. I did not r attempt it, and we had proceeded several 1 miles without making any thing more than a few occasional remarks, when the '. following conversation took place lic ' tween the elder lady and her daughter, 1 on Ihe back scat, “Oh ! mother !” ’ “ Well, iieckey, what’s iho matter?” ■ “ I have forgot nay ruffles iu the little hox.” “ What ?” “ 1 have forgot the caps and ruffles,” “Well, Ido say for me, I s never heard of such \ ile doings during the H whole course of my life—forget the caps *’ & ruffles?” “ What will we do, mother:” “ Whul will »edo ? Why we will do I" without thorn, you fee kless creature, and l " have them sent up to us.” '-Oh ! dear, 1 e said the daughter, half crying and sunk ' into stillness, to chew tlie cud of her own thoughtlessness. My situation was the most unpleasant one imaginable, the lady’s band-box was 0 placed close to mo, and her trunk under 0 my feel, so that my knees were literally J thrust into my mouth, and every jolt of the stage brought my head with great ‘ force iu full contact with my knees, which caused no little pain ; indeed, so great a blow did 1 receive upon the dement ol 1 the stage from off a large stone, that 1 " actually loosened one of my front teeth; 11 but the lady, who was the “cause oflhis y effect,” totally disregarded my conlor p tious, but every now and then thrust her head in between the passengers, and cri ed, “ take care of my band-box, take care j. of my hand-box.” To add, if possible, still more to the j comforts of my situation, tho breath of I the sou of Esculapius on the right side, was far more disagreeable than his own assskolida. and he on my left was a great chowerof lonacco, and spit very often, so that it was ten chaiues to one, if there was any wind stirring, that 1 got the whole of it in my face. We had go he about half our journey, when a stage drove biliously past us, the | driver ol it cracking his whip and whist r ling to his horses ; “ah ! ha ! are you for that work?” exclaimed our driver and ( began to drive hi? horses, in a fall gallop; I j he had just accomplished his purpose, | that of getting -ahead of the other stage, when off came tho wheel and down we ' went with great lorce, as my poor face can fully testily—the child cried—the ; \ I rent hmau vociferated inn fui! juirhlan I —the women shrieked and the citizen gate out his intention of speaking to ihe proper authorities, i would hero make f -• shglit Agression to say that the many I accidents tied occur, owing to the dri .. J vers, call loudly for tho interference cf J the proper authorities to put a stop to u practice so disgraceful, by which so nia , ny lives arc risked by their unprincipled | conduct. I Luckily no one was hurt in body, a!-' though the lady . f the bandbox was sore ‘ ly afflicted iu mind, for with all her tries | t‘to take r are of her band box,” it was completely smashed, together with it? contents, which consisted of, as she gave I *to ;< new l»oimot whii she j j had just bought the day before. Indeed 1 was so mu Ini-lion like as to rejoice at Iter distress, because I thought she would never again bring a band-box into a stage.! The injury the stage sustained I v the fall was so great as to detain us mar three j hours whit h made it very late at night i before we arived at our place of des 11inatiou. Dot Messrs, Editors, I have come to this conclusion, ifevor I have to use a lai.il carriage again, if shall not be a stage coach, provided I cau in any way compass hiring a private conveyance, free from band boxes, trunks, bigs and bun dles. AN OLD B \CIIELOR. NEW-VORK, SFPT. 2. 5 One Day Later from England. The ship Factor, arrived at Phila delphia from Liverpool, has brought London dates of the 25ih July, one day later than those received, and published by us on Saturday. They do not, however, contain any thing of particular interest. The most recent accounts from Spain continue to re present every thing us tranquil at Madrid. The council of state had addressed a representation to the King, as to the conduct of his minis ters, in consequence of which several new appointments had been announ ced. Besides the Duke do I’lnfanta do, the late minister of war had been ordered into exile, and other persons, more immediately attached to the King’s person, were expected to share the same fate. The rebel guards af ter being separated into four detach ments, were sent 100 leagues from the capital, their chiefs being detain ed at Madrid. Intelligence had been received from Catalonia of the cap ture of a strong fortress by the Con stitutionalists, the factious having 1 10,000 killed and wounded.—These ’ disorders, it is observed, with a weak ’ and corrupt ministry might have ac i quired a dangerous characlerr; but i the seven heads of the hydra are cut ■ off at Madrid, and, under a ministry ' worthy in all respects of a free ua ) tion, they will soon disappear. , The municipality of Madrid pre l sented an energetic address to the ' King on the yth of July, in which they attribute the disorders, with . which Spain had been alllicted, to the . bad faith of a great number of his , ministers, and to the indolence and > intemperance of others, and call on j him to consult those only who were [ virtuous men who alone have the > right to the glorious title of Liber- I als.” To the King himself they say “ Be, Sire, theirs/ Liberal in the uu \ tion.” At Bilboa, Cadiz, and other j cities, the news of the revolt of the i royal guards had excited the utmost indignation. The militia took up ! arms, and swore to die in defence of J the constitution. Addresses, expres . sive of the same sentiments, wore . every where drawing up and turward -1 ing to the King; who hud caused ’ different ordinances to he issued, in which he testified his satisfaction to { the regulars and militia, for tlicir 1 good conduct in putting down the in • surrection «f Ids guards. 2 A note is stated to have been ad dressed to the Ministry by the Eu ! ropean Ministers at Madrid,declaring > that their courts would regard any ■ attempt on the King’s person as an I act of hostility ; and the British min [ istcr, it is added, had transmitted a s, separate note, the object of which > was to announce, that England was • determined to protect the Constitu- J tional throne, and the liberties of the { Spanish nation. On the other band, , the Ambassador of France is said to have left Madrid, and that the Span -1 ish Minister at Paris would, in con s sequence, be recalled. it must be acknowledged, that the i disposition of the present government t of France to assist in the restoration 1 of absolute Monarchy in Spain, has j been too glaring to be any longer I doubted.—The assembling of so ; large a body of troops on the fron s tiers, under the pretence of guarding ■ against that which no longer existed, is ofitsself a strong proof of the sm , patience of the French ministers to interfere in Spanish matters. This 1 inclination, however, is not so dis -1 covcrable or so dangerous in an open 1 assumed hostile attitude, as in that detestable and underhand policy, whirl) the Cortes of Spain have lute ly discovered, and boldly charged a gainst France. Whatever opinion may be entertained of some of the leading men in Spanish affairs, it does appear, that the desertion of princi ple or duty on the part of any of the members of the Cortes, has been ex tremely rare—-What better guaran tee, then, is necessary for the protec tion of the constitution, than to eon tide in the councils of men, who, like j the present Cortes, commenced their labours by a voluntary sacrifice of I their own pecuniary interests ? j RUSSIA, TURKEY & GREECE. 1 Accounts received at Odessa, on J the —7ill of June, from Constantino ! pie, say, 4 ‘ that a special messenger i had arrived there from Vienna, with ! an invitation to the Sublime Porte to I send a Turkish Commissioner to Ra miuee Podolski, to treat direct with our Court.” A long article is put forth in one of the Frankfort Jour nals on the political relations of Rus | sia and Turkey, and dated St. Pe lersbnrgh, in which the Emperor Al exander is made to disclaim (in op position to the numerous statements i to the contrary, which have appear jed in all the foreign papers) every thing like a disposition or inclination to favor the Greeks, either directly or indirectly, in his negotiations with Turkey. After a laboured attempt to show, that the Russian Cabinet ne ver intended to allow the peace of Europe to be disturbed, and after as serting that the u Turkish Empire was recognized as an integral part of Europe, at the late Congress of Vien na,” this singular document proceeds to stigmatize the Greeks as rebels, whom the Emperor Alexander was bound to put down, on the same prin ciple that has concurred iu reducing the insurgents of Italy. Had he act-j ed otherwise, “ would not all the Ca-. ’ binds have reproached him with tin;, greatest inconsistency, and perhaps,.' . even with ambitious views ?” In what point of view, then, (con-; 1 tinues the writer) is our contest with ; Russia to be regarded ? It proceeds - ■ from a private difference which the j 1 two States have to settle between, . themselves, and which the Emperor . has admitted to the mediation ol| i Foreign Powers, and rather hasac-! , cejrted this mediation —because his [ ■ j direct relations with the Sultan are > i broken off—because the present po litical interest of Russia makes the - maintenance of peace necessary—be i cause his magnanimous heart prefers . peace to military glory—and, lastly, i because all the monarchs are unani mous in maintaining the statutes of . Europe, as laid down at the Vienna j Congress. > The state of the case is simply this: ■ 1. Russia is in a state of difference - with Turkey, but which has arisen t from the breach of treaties and the t law of nations on the part of the f Turks, and in which the Greek insur - rcction has no direct share. 2. Russia has not by any means - shewn a tendency to offensive war, 3 but it is able to repel every attack. i 3. Russia has signified to the Tur -1 kish Government, by the intervention 2 of England and Austria, in what man s ner the ancient relations may be recs- I taWished. 1 4. Negociations are actually on 2 foot respecting this matter.” 2 Regarding the above as an authen - tic document, we are not surprised to r find it stated in the London papers, - that the late atrocities at Constantino r pie had made no impression on “ the i* great and pacific Alexander,” who, t we are now told, lends a deaf ear to a the representations in favor of the f murdered Greeks, and feels only for - the insult offered to himself in the per il son of his Ambassador. It is singular, however, if matters 1 had boon arranged betwixt Russia i & the Porte, in the way which has been > so often mentioned, that neither of r these powers had shown a disposition, - so late as the 25 June, to relajf in their warlike preparations. At that - date, intelligence had been received - at Odessa, that Alexander had not r withdrawn any part of his army from f the banks of the Pruth, nor had the i Tin ks given up an inch of ground in - Walladiia or Moldavia. i Accounts from Constantinople, to i the 19th June, contain various des s criptionsofthe enormities committed - in that capital by the soldiers of this e ‘legitiina! ■ government.’ The Asia- O O 1, tic troops are represented to be no -12 wise be hind the Janissaries in deprav ity, and the Grand Vizier is stated to - have narrowly escaped with his life amid the scenes of murder and con -0 fusion. (i Religion added its assist t ance to successful villainy. The tri ll umph of the true believers, the folio w s ors of the prophet, over the Christian r nations of Europe, was celebrated by 0 every cruelty and insult that could be - heaped on those who profess the same g faith with Englishmen.”, 1 * SA'I UiIDAY, SEPTEMBER M, 1 * Mr. llanxon, As much has been said and writ . ten upon the late act of the Governor, 1 in relation to the Secretary of State, 2 1 have not been a little surprized to find 5 that no one attempts to point to the , remedy which is certainly in the pow . er of Col, Hammond, and thy onhj ■ one for his relief in the case, I mean ’j the Judiciary. This is the only tri , j bunal that ran affix a constitutional r j and binding decision in the case.— f Whether the Governor, in the exer cise of his judgment, has erred or not, is not to be left, in such an important matter as this, to the opinion of indi r viduals; nor can the I egislature move 1 in the case, Constitutionally, as it now ’ stands :—their vote, whether for or ' against, cannot alter the case. The t Judges ot file Superior Court are to ■ pronounce upon, and decide what ■ construction is right in all matters ‘ arising from the letter of the law or . the constitution; which decision must i be final and conclusive. ■ ..The remedy in this case for Col. Hammond is open before him; let . him apply to one of the Judges of the 1 Superior Court for a Rule, which is, t and must be granted, as a matter of course, for Mr. Whitaker to shew * cause, why a Mandamus shall not > ' ssue t 0 displace him and restore Col. I Hammond to the office of Secretary ■ of State ? But as Col. Hammond has not yet ; adapted this method, it would be well, . for the satisfaction of the public, that [ upon the return of this Buie, the j opinion of all the Judges should be j i had; this can be done during the ses-! jsion of the Legislature, as all the; : Judges will no doubt, be at Milledgc ! ville during the first week, if not longer. There is but one point in the. i case, but that one is important, Was ‘ there a vacancy ? It is agreed on all hands, that if there was, the proceed -1 ing is correct. i _ »■ j We commence, to-day, a Review jof the Sermons of the late Doct. j Kollock, by a gentleman of classical | and literary attainments, and of great i worth in our community. It will be 1; continued, until finished, in every 1 Saturday’s publication. One or two 1 columns, (even in a common news : paper,) devoted to a subject that ' “ concerned! us above all others,” i will, we trust, be received with plea . sure, and read with much profit. All • we desire of the reader, is to peruse the present number, and if liberality of sentiment, and beauty of diction, ’ have effect, a sufficient surety will be . afforded that proper attention wall be i paid to the succeeding numbers. Mr. Monroe’s administration has ( been charged with the sin (an inexpi able one in a Republic) of wasting the public treasure. This is the fashion able cant of the time-serving politi cian, who, under shelter of the popu ’ lar cry of economy, abuses the pub lic ear to his insidious ends. The people are never so credulous as when ’ they are told that their money has been ill-spent by those whom they have clothed with public trusts. This is well known by the demagogue,and the arts that will best encourage pop ular suspicion and weaken general 'confidence in those who administer public affairs, are employed with the } . cunning, but we hope not with the success, that generally attend them. ’ Thus has Mr. Jefferson’s adminis ( tration been cited as the golden peri- I od of our financial history; and Mr. t Monroe’s compared with it as to the only just standard of national econo my. The following is the language of those who are of this school of economy. (i The one administration was all care of the finances; the other has been all prodigality in its dis , bursements. The one left us unin cumbered with debt; the other has added to it; the expenditures of the one was in harmony with the severe ] simplicity that best befits a Republic; those of the other exhibit the extrava ’ gant spirit of monarchy.” It is by ' this sort of parallel that Mr. Mon roe’s administration has been judged to have departed from the maxims of a true Republican economy. What is the reply ? Have the de magogues who have thus abused the public ear had the candour to point to ' our census, and remark the increase and diffusion of our population ? Have the) pointed to the extension of our frontiers by sea and by land? Have they allowed for the increase of our establishments to correspond with these circumstances ? Gan a po pulation of ten millions be governed for the same expense as one ut'Jive ? Can that part of our people which • have pushed their spirit of adventure far into the hunting grounds of the savage, be protected by the same 1 military force as when its enterprize 1 was bounded by much narrower lim its ? Or can a Navy which proudly . bears the flag of the Republic to the , most distant seas, and protects a com merce which knows no limits but the habitable globe, be manned and main tained for the same money as the more contracted one of Mr. Jefferson ? Reason and common sense must reply in the negative. But this is not all, Mr. Monroe’s ad -1 ministration has had to provide for the redemption of a large debt created by his predecessor. It has to move in the path marked out for it by public opinion (which has made a navy, and an army, and a large pension list po pular) under this incumbrance so debt, and with this increase of ex pense. Should that administration he therefore blamed if it be embar rassed, and be charged with extrava gance should it even experience a failure of means ? Is it consistent with truth, or does it comport with common candor, to judge the adminis tration of Mr. Monroe by those tests that were applied to Mr. Jeffer son’s ? Are our public affairs go verned by similar principles of poli cy ? Are our establishments on the same limited scale ? Are the cir cumstances of the country the same, and can the interval between the two administrations be rendered a blank in our history, so that the last war with its attendant expences may be entirely left out ot view in any com parison between them ? Let these questions be answered satisfactorily before any comparison of the kind be instituted. But we shall occasional ly turn to this topic. It is one of great interest to the for in i proportion to the success of the eft* i \to render Mr. Monroe’s administ^ 3 I I tion unpopular, in regard to thesS K jof its disbursements, will be the | jto our national establishments. ‘ ■ : Southern Patriot. I . FOR THE AUGUSTA CHRONICLE AM, M [ GEORGIA ADVERTISER. REVIEW, [I 0/ Sermons on various Subjects bu n II late I Jen rv Kollock, I). D.JyJif'H Dr. Kollock, was a man of noH r i ordinary stamp ; and, as might have I . been expected, the productions of hi, ft] 1 pen are such as to do justice to t|» I t anticipations which his efforts in th e ft , P ul P il generally excited. After all I ■ that we have seen and heard ofoiher I ’ men, we are compelled to admit tliai I j there was a charm in his eloquence I . which we have*never found in equal I t force in any other individual. We do I , not speak from personal attachment I for our acquaintance with his private I - life was small; nor yet from sectarian I ] partialities, for we are of a different | e denomination ; but from the impres- | sion which his public efforts made I ’ upon our mind, and from the sense of I > that justice which superior eminence I e in a divine ait clearly demands. It I g is so seldom that we see a great mind I exerted upon objects of proportion- I ate magnitude that we cannot With- I hold the testimony of our admiration I s from those cases in which talent ha- I - received anew splendor from theglo- I e ry of those themes with which it has I - been conversant. It is not meet that I - those who have applied their great I - powers to the cause of virtue and re- I • ligion, who have counted the humili- I e ty of the Cross their highest honor I i whom “ Ardens evexit ad mtherc I s virtus,” should sink into an early ob-1 y livion and cease to influence the des* I s tinies of the living. I d Dr. Kollock was remarkable for I - his pulpit performances. Nature I 1 had dealt to him no sparing measure I r of her most attractive gifts, and in his I J hands her bounty was net abused, I e nor perverted. , His diligence made I • every endowment subservient to the I - great purpose of his being. His line - manly form, on which were impress • ed the characteristics of benignity e & candor : Ms clear masculine voice, - which filled every ear with iustruc e tion and delight, and the vivid expres s sion of an amiable countenance, were i all brought iiffo the service of his Sa i’ viour, and made sacred by Christian - charity. It was, impossible for infidelity it s Tself to listen to such an advocate 0 without feeling some good will to the e cause which he recommended. lor ; in those affecting appeals which lie - often made to his hearers, and which 1 were seconded by all the advantage? -of a winning exterior, he seemed to 1 be fired by a holy ardor, with a good f portion of which he inspired them, bearing them along with him to - heights whence could be descried the - brightness of a happier world, and J whence could be heard“ melody born b among the stars.” For theconfirma ? tion of this we have only to appeal f to numberless living witnesses whose ? testimony must secure us from the - charge of exaggerated representation, 1 and who giving an impartial evidence, - must allow the correctness of what 1 we here affirm. ? Though the Sermons which he de i livercd had, in general, been written 3 out before hand, yet such was the - power of his memory, that he needed 3 very little aid from his notes, and in - the delivery of his discourses, he had ■ all the pathos and energy ol extern i poraneous speakers, with much great er correctness than is common with | • such. His diction was generally | ! chaste and simple, and whilst it re • jcctedall unnatural efforts to surprise and gratify a classical ear, was yet at times enriched with the finest al.'i r sions. , . i The writer of the biographical • sketch prefixed to his Sermons, in* ; forms us, that in his earlier prepara tions, he had made great use ol the 1 French preachers, and had consider ' ed them deserving of imitation. h> I one respect, we believe that m!g)( ■ have admired the compositions 1 their more eminent Divines. He ap proved the noble disinterestedness ot persuasion and eloquence, which shine in theii public addresses, hut ■ his theology came from a different school. He had thoroughly studied the works of Edwards and I uikr. the latter, of whom he held in th? highest possible estimation. NV e cai never forget the terms of earnest ap probation with which he first men tioned to us the name ot Andre* Fuller, whose writings he regarde as the commencement ol an eia m theology. “ Fuller,” said he, “ most perfect master of his subjec. ° ! any writer on religion that I c' c * read. He uses no word witluii' meaning and he never suffers n‘- tneaning to lie hid. Though perfect ly original in his matter, he is never obscure in expression.” Dr. Kollock is distinguished for elevated and fervid glow of piel.» * ! all his Sermons and Discourses. brings home his subject with gr*-- . effect to audience, and mak p s f -“- ■
