JohnQwiwct Adams, Secretary of Stale. Selections from English Papers. i Bow-street. —John Brown,— . Mr. Heron, of Carlisle-street, Soho, , one of the church-wardens of St. Anne’s appeared in custody before the magistrate, to answer the com plaint of John Brown. John Brown, or more courteously speaking, Mr. John Brown, is land lord of the Vine Inn at Barking, in Essex, and a jolly landlord he is— plump, unctuous, and rosy j and be ing at this time blessed with a fine pair of blood-shot eyes, his counten ance looks as glowingly rubicond as a full-blown Patagonian pony. Now it appears that John Brown has a correspondent in London nam ed Bennett, who some time ago ac cepted a bill in his favour, and with in these few days John Brown receiv ed a letter from a Mr. Denham, in the City-road, informing him that his friend Mr. Bennett would not be able to honour his acceptance, because Mrs. Bennett had eloped! This was said news for John Brown. He felt for his friend who had lost his wife ; he felt more for himself, who was likely to lose his money; and, what with the wife and the money, and the money and the wife, he was | puzzled exceedingly. But he was not the man to sit idly twirling his : thumbs and bothering his brains, i when there was a chance of mending the matter by using his legs; and so, ; having set his affairs at home in order, l he came at once to London, deter- ] mined to do something, though what i he knew not. Irt the first place he; jj called upon Mr. Denham, for poor \ Mr. Bennett was from home, roving « round the country in search of his \ faithless spouse. Well, Brown and ,| Mr. Denham laid their heads toge-r ther;and indeed John Brown could [i not have come more opportunely, for b Mr. Denham had just got intelligence u that the runagate Mrs. Bennett, and) her paramour Lieutenant Herriot,* were concealed at No. 19 Carlisle-1 street, Soho. “Ho! ho!” thinks| John Brown to himself, “ now I’ll do§ the business genteelly. I’ll get poor| Bennett his wife again, I’ll baste blackguard that took her away, andji, I’ll get my bill honoured, all quite\\ regular .” And full of this hope andf' expectation, he instantly sallied forth! on his way to No. 19, Carlisle-streetij Soho; but, unfortunately Johnl Brown’s memory“ lacked retention”?! —the nineteen imperceptibly evaj, porated as he went along—by ttH, time he reached Carlislc-street, ten pi; | the number had completely from his recollection, and he knocked at the door of No. 9. daughter of the late Magistrate of that name, and of very retired habits.— But what was all that to John Brown? he had as little doubt of his having mistaken the house as he had of his own existence. The door was open ed by one of the maid-servants, and John Brown, with his flaming physi ognomy, (strode manfully into the hall. The girl, with the open door still in her hand, stared after him with surprise. “ Shut the door, young woman !” said the peremptory John Brown—“ shut the door, young woman, and show me up to the Missise.” “My mistress, Sir !” said the astonished girl;—“ it’s impossi ble—she is not np.” “ Aye, that wont do for me,” replied John Brown, “ 1 must, and I will see her directly —so show me up stairs/’ Tile "ff! • became alarmed, and called her fel low servant, whilst John Brown con tinued marching about the hall, wip ing the dewy moisture from his blush ing brows, and vociferating aloud “ you baggage ! you know all abaut it-! But I wo’nt be gammoned!—you know the mitsiss is in bed with Lieu tenant Herrlot! But I’ll have him out in spite of you !” (It was gjven in evidence that he said “ Lieutenant Admiral ,” instead of “ Lieutenant Herriot,” but this he positively denied.) At length the two girls together prevailed upon him to moderate his choler a little, and write a note to their mistress. They furnished him with pen, ink, and paper, and he set about it lustily; but he wrote, and wrote, and could write nothing to his mind. He threw his coat off, and tried again, but still it would not do. —Then he recollected that he had been bled the day before, and that! the bandage might possibly the flow of his thoughts as well as the motion of his pen. Up goes his shirt sleeve in an instant; and stretching out his brawny arm, he ordered the girls to unloose the bandage; but by this time they had no doubt that ho nest J. Brown was neither more nor less than a madman, and one of them, slipped out of door and requested Mr, Heron, the churchwarden, who re* sides immediately opposite, to coma to him. Mr. Heron came just a< John Brown had managed to unroll j the bandage from bis arm, and was I taking pen in hand to have another! try at writing. Mr. Heron demand ed John Brown’s business there, and John Brown told him all about it without bating an inch When he had done, Mr. Heron told him he was either mad, or was labouring under some gross mistake. John Brown was doubly fired at this—his countenance from a glowing red became of a maho gany tint, and manifested symptoms of kicking up a row. But Mr. Heron was not to be frightened by “ the blustering of a turkey-cock ,” and so, quietly grasping John Brown by the arm, he “ walked him out of the house”. But Mr. Allen happened to be from home, and John Brown was, suffered to go at large. Whereupon he repaired to the nearest tavern, took a bumper of brandy and water to reconglomerate his faculties, and then applied at this office for a war rant against Mr. Heron, who, as he said, had dared to walk him out of one house into another. The magistrate having heard the business, from beginning to end with great patience, dismissed the war rant, and told John Brown he might think himself well off that it was no worse. T. his is the end of John Brown’s adventures as far as we are acquaint ed with them. Bed-room Acquaintance. Mr. Richard Penn, a small, elderly, quiet sort of a gentleman, was placed at the bar, charged with the very un genteel fact of stealing his friend’s ball-dress. It was thus :—Mr. James Walker, a young gentleman who amuses his fancy and replenishes his purse by keeping the hair of other gentlemen in order, was present at a very splen- f lid ball given at the assembly-rooms t ?$Mr. Mitchell, near Glare-market, c Qh Monday night. Mr. Richard Penn a *as among the company, and made! < so agreeable, that Mr. James j If alter was mightily taken with him; j, it much so, that when the assembly !roke up he offered him half of his led. The offer was accepted, and •eyretired to Mr. James Walker’s.; apartments —the first floor down the j: ihimney in the house of Mrs. Rich- 1 Lrdson, of Denmark-court, Strand. Here they soon fell asleep, and in the Corning Mr. James Walker rose and grayed himself in his ordinary habi liments, with the intention of calling ipon some gentleman whose chins We under his especial care; and Wore he went, he endeavoured to prevail upon Air. Richard Penn to rise also; but that gentleman pro fessed himself exceedingly fatigued with the delightful exercise of the pre ceding evening, and requested per mission to sleep longer. Mr. James Walker’s mind misgave him rather, but he was too polite to say any thing; and so, having wished his new friend » slumber, he departed to hivvrti-K^^j&v., He had not been gone above half an hour, howe ver, when the wicked Mr. Richard Penn shook off his drowsiness, rose from the bed, dressed himself, and gathered together his kind host’s ball dress, with several other little things; he packed them all up in his hand kerchief, and crept softly down stairs, thinking, no doubt, to steal off with them. But in this he was foiled, for he was stopped in the passage by Mrs. Richardson, the venerable pro prietoress, ofthe mansion, who insist ed on examing his bundle before he went, and finding in it the property of her young inmate, she told Mr. Richard Penn that she had no doubt he had intended to brush with it, and she should therefore send for a consta ble. This threat she instantly per formed, and Mr Richard Penn was brought before I*. uh defence Kb,said he was real ly so “ mystified” when be awoke at finding himself in a strange bed, that he did not know exactly what he was about, and had no idea but what they were his own things he was packing »P- His Worahip told him he did not believe him, and fully committed him to take his trial for the felony. So that it is a hundred to one if he ever makes himselfagreeableat Mr. Mitch ell’s assembly room again* LONDON, JULY 30. Ascent from Cheltenham.— This afternoon, at half past three o’clock, Mr. Green, the aeronaut, with a gen tleman named Griffith of the Chel tenham Chronicle, made an ascent with a large and beautiful balloon, from a yard at the back of the Lon don hotel, in this town, amidst a I more numerous assemblage of nobili yty, gentry, and fashionables, than was ever witnessed in this plate on any former occasion. The town was filled with carriages and vehicles of every description, & numbers of per sons from Bath, Bristol, Gloucester, Tewkesbury, Worcester, and all the neighbouring counties, thronged at an early hour towards the object of at traction. At one o’clock the spa cious yard was nearly filled with la dies and gentlemen, and the balloon was slung up to a rope nearly fifty j feet high in the centre, when the in ! flation commenced under the direc -1 tion of Mr. Spinney, the superintend ent of the gas works, to whom Mr. Green expressed his thanks, before he took his flight, for the able manner in which he had conducted the fill ing The weather was very favoura ble, and by three o’clock it was filled, and displayed a must delightful trans parent globe, quartered in alternate colors of blue, red, and yellow, in size beyond any thing ever before seen in England. At half past three o’clock the gen tlemen entered the car (which was of most costly and elegant structure, a gift to the aeronaut by Col. Reddell of this place) apparently in high spi rits ; they both displayed the utmost coolness and intrepidity \ and having attached the cords, they bade adieu to their friends, when at the moment the car was removed to the farther end of the ground to windward, it was dis covered that some most wicked per son bad cut one of the cords that sus pended it from the net work.—Mr. Green, with the greatest promptitude, ordered every person to leave the car, and when urged to have the cord re paired, he replied, “ Til not hazard the cutting of another cord—l do not depend upon one line only, unloose the ropes.” The cords were loosen ed immediately, and the balloon as cended in the most majestic manner, amidstthe plauditsofthousands. The voyagers remained in sight upwards of twenty minutes and the greatest de light and satisfaction were expresed by every beholder. Bets, amount ing to many thousand pounds, were depending upon the ascent. The course of the balloon was due east; it passed over Northleach, and Lord Sherborne’s park, and we hear the aerial voyagers descended near that place; after being half an hour in the trackless spacfr. Great numbers c of gentlemen have rode out to meet and welcome Messrs. Greene and t Griffith. 1 FROM THE SPANISH MAINE, j Philadelphia , Sept. 11. ] We are indebted to the editor of' s I the Press, for the following import- | i ; ant intelligence, received by the brig j Zeno, Slade, arrived at our Lazaretto , yesterday: “ Curracoa, 13 Ih Aug- 1822. “ This day arrived a Dutch schoon- < er from Laguira, in 36 hours, bring | ing the following glorious news: “ General Morales, with 2000 men, marched on the 3d inst. from Porto | Cabello against Valencia and Car acas. They were met on the height! of Birgiraina by Gen. Paez and 750, men. An engagement ensued.

Without tracing this ■ amiable prejudice to the nursery tale 1 of the Babes in the Wood, we may Y be permitted to believe that this sim* - pie narrative has had its effect in * strengthening it very considerably; - especially when it is accompanied by * a positive interdict on the part of the 2 mother or nurse by whom it is related, t against killing the innocent Robin. - It is not easy to disentangle ourselves - from the influence of feelings which , were early imbibed, and which have - grown and strengthened with us, un -2 lil they have become blended with 1 our very nature, and show themselves e in our disposition and general charac ter ; and, if it were less difficult than * it is, we should be far from consider s ing such a separation desirable, for it * cannot be denied that our earliest lm -1 pressions, before we have received * the taint which an association with t the world always produces, must be 1 the freest from impurity. We re > member the time when we should 2 have considered the killing of a robin f a species of sacrilege which would * have been followed by some signal - calamity, byway of punishment. It ■ is very true, we have grown wiser on * the subject; but we do not feel that , our wisdom, in this respect, has add , ed a tittle to our stock of amiable and ■ benevolent feelings. To those how -1 ever, who would be ashamed of the t superstitious feeling which might ! prevent them from destroying this in * nocent bird, we recommend the peru * sal of the following article, which , may convince them at least of the s reasonableness of protecting one of i the feathered race which is constant ■ ly employed in doing service to its 1 persecutors.— Wash. Rep. ; Agriculture. —The following ob servations of a Vermont farmer, show > that we should consult our real inter -1 est , as well as the finer feelings of * our nature, by defending the innocent ■ robin from the attack of both boys I i and men. There are also other kinds' >f birds Who yrey on the insect wto ■ levour our crops, and whose ;ry would amply reward us tecting them.— Farmer's Journal. H “ I know of no method whatever to extirpate this larger species, which I human ingenuity can devise. H Providence seems to have provided I an antidote to this evil in the j-«6ca«. la, or common robin. This innocent I and useful bird preys with peculiar I avidity upon this species of worm, I This fact may be ascertained by visit! I ing a nestof young robins in the vj. I|| ciuity of a corn field, when it will he I perceived that they are fed lavish]. I upon this kii>d of worm. At other I times, this bird) feeds upon different 'M species of worms and bugs, which are I found upon the surface of the ground, I which services are of immense value and benefit to the farmer, and ought I to recoaimend it to his peculiar care II and patronage. But its innocence- p and utility are inadequate to protect '' it from the wanton cruelty of boys and sportsmen. What immense num bers of these our benefactors are an nually destroyed through mere wan tonness and cruelly, while we arc constantly hearing of the ravages q{ worms and bugs, in the various de partments of vegetation. Even whole corn fields have been laid waste the present season bjr this larger species of worm, which calamity might have been obviated by having spared and fostered the robin. The utility, li\ fact, of this invaluable bird, is so ok. vious, that even legislative interfer ence is imperiously demanded, to rescue it from the bloody fangs of the fowler. Other states have their pro tecting laws for the bnefit ofinnoceny and useful birds, and why should we be distanced in the sacred cause of humanity? The subject may aj* pear trifling and novel at first, but a little reflection will convince any ons that itis by no means uau^portanU ,, ituw to punish filial disobedience . —ln the Court for the relief of insol vent debtors, the will of a Mr. C——- was read, containing the following remarkable passage“ I leave to my undutiful son, , one hundred thousand pounds.” Itis said to be a specific for the rheumatism, to apply a cabbage-leaf to the part affected.
