Power, pay, in virtue of the laws now
in force, a surcharge amounting to
more than 20 francs per marine ton

FROM THE NATIONAL GAZETTE.
It appears by advices received yes
terday from Alvarado, a port in the!
Gull of Mexico, 40 miles S. S. E. of j
Vera Cruz, that on the 26 of Aug.
the Emperor iturbid* caused to be
arrested, forty or iiiiy individuals,
among whom, fifteen members of the
Congress then sitting in the city of
Mexico. It is added that on the
next day, “ a proclamation, signed by
the minister of state, was issued, an
nouncing to the public, as the cause
for this mettsur 0 , the existence of a
[ conspiracy against the actual govern
ment.—After some days the Con
gress presented to the Emperor a
memorial praying that their fellow
members in captivity should be for
thwith brought to trial, punished if
guilty, liberated if innocent. The
reply to this document was by no
means a favorable one : it threw re-
I flections on the whole body, crim- 1
mating their views and measures,
and concluding with the declaration
that till they should be governed by
better principles, lie (the Emperor)
would be under the hard necessity
of disregarding the laws which should
emanate from that body.” The
names of forty-seven persons are
given, alleged to have been arrested.
ihe castle of St. John de Ulloa,
remains in the possession of a Span
ish garrison not exceeding 500 men,
which exacts of vessels entering and
clearing from V r era Cruz—so cents
per ton t mnage money—s per ct. on
the invoice value of ail importation—
t.nd an arbitrary duty on exportation
of Specie and Produce. These char
ges and dues are independent of the
vet) heavy duties exacted in cohl'or
j mity with the Mexican Tariff,
j # Being on the subject of Mexico,
we shall improve the opportunity to
remark, that adventurers to Mexico,
from these States, on whatever er
rand, will be exposed to serious dis
appointments. We have been at
I pains to obtain information from the
. best sources, concerning the political
and commercial condition of the m w
; empire; the dispositions of its people
i towards foreigners, and the scope
! open at present to the latter, for tlie
(exercise of their ingenuity, knowl
edge, or capital ; and we are con
vinced by what we have heard and
read, that we arc entitled to caution
our countrymen against indulging
schemes of immediate emigration
thither, or sanguine calculations of
gain from enterprises either personal
•or otherwise, in that direction. The
tenure of the new government is ex- 1
. ceedingly precarious; money very
j scarce ; trade stagnant; the people
ignorant and prejudiced. That the
■ state of things will be more generally
prosperous and inviting hereafter,
perhaps at no great distance of time,
we do not doubt, hut we repeat that
it is at present unpropitious for emi
grants. The story circulating in the
newspapers that Gen. Wiliunsoo has
obtained a lucrative ofii e, or receiv
i '
eil a pension, is wholly without Inun
dation.
The Emperor Alexander has giv
en peremptory orders for the shutting
up of all the Masonic Lodges in Rus
sia. All persons holding public
situations either in the army, navy, 1
or civil departments, are enjoined to
renounce Masonry forever, under
penalty of expulsion.
The London Times gives the fol-1
■ lowing article :—“ A gentleman wlioj
was present at the review by the'
Emperor Alexander, at Moscow,
states, that above eighty petitions!
were then presented to him by offi
cers, and soldiers, wiio stepped out
of the ranks, calling on him to com
mence hostilities against the Turks.
A Priest of consideration had, at the
same time, loudly denounced Alex
ander fur his insens’bility to the suf
ferings of his fellow religionists, and
that in a very unpalatable language.
Our readers may draw their own
conclusions from these circumstan
ces.

Capture of Pirates !
l?y the schooner Comet, Capt.
Campbell, in 7 clays from Havana,
we learn the following particulars :
that the United States’ ship of war
Peacock, Captain Cassin, fell in,
about the Ist of October, off the Bay
of Honda, with six piratical schoon
ers, in the very act of an engagement
with H. B. M. schooner Speedwell,
Lieut. Cary. The Speedwell was
on shore, the banditti of the deep
were too strong fur her, and she
j would inevitably h ive been capture,!,
had not the Peacock come so timely
to hen assistance. The Peacock
i succeeded in capturing four of these
( schooners, and 23 men, the other two
l schooners run on shore, & were burnt
i by the; pirates themselves.
One of the Peacock’s prizes was
carried into Havana, and was imme
diately recognized tiiere, as belonging
to a respectable merchant, previous
to her metamorphosis into a pirate*
She was ransomed by the owner.
The other three schooners were
sent into New-Orleans with the 23
pirates, where, through the justice of
I heaven, they will receive their due
| reward for labors past:—if not for
j their deeds on earth, at least for their
deedit on water.
The Peacock gave convoy to the
Comet, (just arrivedj and several
other vessels hound to different ports
in the United States.
Capt. Campbell learnt at Havana
(Oct. ]2tli) that an Embargo had
been laid in Porto-Hico, upon all
American vessels, in consequence of
the capture of the Palmyra, alias
Pancliita.— Charleston City Gaz.

- Whoever reflects upon the depra
- vityof human nature,the wide spread
t influence ot evil in th heart ol every
son aad daughter of Adam, and who
1 directs hiscontemplations to the con
r sequent miseries and diversified suf
ferings of the human family, cannot
; Hut mourn over a scene which while
■ it is beybqd die power of human cf
. fort to find\a remedy, is nevertheless
- not beyond vJk* hope of alleviation in
1 the circumstances of the present life,
nor past the possibility of divine for
; givencss in the world to come.
The researches and investigations
of ancient philosophers, even aided
, only by the light of nature into the
i causes of the evils which so obviously
• existed around them, often resulted
in tracing them to the sensual indul
; gencies of men, mid to the corrupt
■ propensities of the human heart.—
Some of them by their penetrating
,; observations of the motives and t»c
, tions of men, seemed almost to arrive
at the certainty of the truth made
• known to us by Revelation—the total
; tall and apostacy of man. But while
; the labors of many profound writers
• contributed to the attainment of the
■ knowledge of this fact, there was yet
, very little efficacy in the schemes they
i proposed as a remedy for the ills so
. 1 universally experienced and deplor
r ed.—The soundest maxims of morali
. ty, the most rigid systems of self
:: denial, or the most conscientious ob
servance of external rites and cere
, monies, were all insufficient to check
■ the impetuosity of the passions, regu
! late the temper, subdue evil inolinu
. j tions, or to reform the heart; —these
j were beyond the power of sages
i and lawgivers to controul; —they
ever were productive of evils for
which no effectual prescription could
be given, and the history of each day
gave evidences of the fallacy of
,! schemes, which however wise and
good in theory, altogether failed in
practice.
It was reserved as a distinguishing
honor due to Revelation alone, fully
to delineate human character, and to
direct mankind to the only remedy
for the evils which they suffer. By
the disclosures of the inspired volume,
the mysteries attending the condition
of man are unfolded.—We there learn
i the nature and attributes of Deity—
the history of tife creation and fall of
man, and the consequences and pe
nalty of disobedience. We are there
directed in the path of duty, and are
taught the div ine principle, to love the
Lord our God, with all our hearts,
and our neighbors as ourselves.—We
there also learn the certainty of the
immortality of the soul, and are
pointed to the only way of forgive
ness and acceptance with our Crea
tor, by the atonement and interces
sion of an Almighty Deliverer.
It is the glory of the age in which
we live, that among the many bene
volent efforts of our time, Sunday
Schools have been instituted to im
part tjie knowledge of revealed truth
to the youth of each rising generation,
thereby,puttlng in operation a means
of general instruction in all the sub
lime truths of Christianity beyond
all others of any human appointment.
The author of this humane system,
Air. Robert Raikes, of Gloucester,
England, is a friend to the best inte
rests of mankind, and as a philan
thropist, is entitled to a monument of
grateful remembrance in the heart of
every lover of our species, and whilst
the tribute of praise even now is due
to his memory, it is generations yet
unborn who alone can do justice to
the character of a man, who in the
providence of God lias conferred so
lasting and important benefits upon
the world. The success which has
attended the plan seems to present
ample evidence that the work is one
which has the special blessing of
God. Scarcely had it been promul
gated by its illustrious author to the
people of England, than it began
. generally to be adopted, and in five
years from the date of the formation
of the first school at Gloucester,’there
was 250,000 children in the kingdom
on each Sabbath receiving regular in
struction. It is truly difficult to take
a view sufficiently wide and extensive
to cm I trace all the salutary effects
which have marked the history of its
operations during tin last 40 years of
its existence. In our country there
are cities each of which are uow' ex
tending to more than 10,000 of their
children the benefits of the sys
tem. Already is the field of its use
fulness extended almost throughout
, every country where the Christian
' religion prevails, disseminating to the
youth of all classes, those doctrines
and principles, which in the effects
they produce upon their lives and
conduct,contribute so much to elevate
their moral character, benefit their
I condition in the present life, and pre
, i pare them hereafter to appear in the
j presence of Him who will judge the
world with righteousness, and the
i people with his truth,
i It is apparent to the comprehension
of every one, that at no period of life
are impressions on the mind so last
ing and durable as those made in the
season of youth, while the under
, standing is in a course of progressive
j formation, and the faculties opening
to the perception of truth, and the
discovery of error. If this be cor
rect as a general remark, with what
force must it apply to the subject of
i instruction in .-iinday Schools. At
• the present enlightened period of
- Christian intelligence, it need not be
said, that the great object of. study
and research at these institutions is
■ the system of mural truth contained
i in the bible, that the basis of all in
struction is the word of God, and the
, only science cultivated is a know
• ledge of the momentous doctrines
which it contains. Ihe utility of such
i an institution can neither be contro
verted by the moralist, nor question
ed by the most superficial observer
!of their influence! Whether const
-1 dered in a religious, moral, or politi
! cal point of view, they are subserving
j tiic best interests of every community
; where they exist, to an extent which
i could hardly have been anticipated by
■ the most sanguine advocates of the
system. Whilst they are diffusing
the light of divine truth among mul
titudes who otherwise would remain
! entirely uninstructed, they are also
i reclaiming almost an innumerable
! number of youth from the ways of
folly and wickedness, repressing their
natural propensities to idleness and
i the worst of vices; counteracting the
■ pernicious example of dissolute and
• profligate parents, and instead of
their growing up to manhood only to
be a tax and a burden to community,
preparing them fur active usefulness
in the various services and employ-!
meats of life. Thus the benefits of
these institutions as sources of chari
ty are not less obvious than they are
in promoting the cause of religion and
morality. In their operations they
are the most efficient means of re
lief to the poor and the needy, parti
cularly in large communities, that
could have been devised. The
wholesome moral principles they
serve to inculcate by effecting a ge
neral suppression in a greater or less
degree of the prevailing vices of the
poor, excites habits of industry which
at once leads to the consummation
of all charity, by placing in the pow
er of thb poor the means of their own
subsistence, and making them the in
dependent contributors to their own
necessities. A plan of instruction
which goes to effect such a reforma
tion as this, cannot but be held in :
high estimation, more especially when i
it is considered that each generation
as they are thus wrought upon, they :
in their turn instead of widening the !
influence of a bad example serve to j
perpetuate and to increase the same j
system by handing down its benefits |
from age to age. The evidence that
this is the fact in reference to the ef
fects of Sunday Schools, is to be
found in the progressive moral im
provement of society since the peri
od of their first formation, and hence
it cannot but be fairly deduced, that
they form ‘ a very important part of
the means, which is to lead to the ac
complishment of the happy period of
the Millenium so clearly and evident
ly predicted by the voice of Prophe
cy-
An institution combining in its
objects and in its tendencies so many
useful results as Sunday Schools, and
having no exclusive interests of any
sect or party to promote, it would
seem could not fail to have the warm
support, and to command the ardent
zeal, not only of every Christian, but
of every friend to the happiness of
mankind. It might naturally be
supposed that every benevolent feel
ing of human nature would be enlist
ed in a cause which is going so much
! to improve the moral character of our
| unhappy race. The records of these
institutions furnish many instances of
■ affecting appeals on their behalf to
the hearts of those who have been
conversant with their history. Ma
i ny has been the mother who by the
light which they have thrown upon
| her condition, has been relieved from
the extremity of sickness and want,
her helpless offspring taken from the
abode of ignorance and distress, the
supply of their necessities provided
tor, their minds enlightened, and they
been taught to walk in the ways of
religion, morality, and virtue. Put
while the most favorable conclusions
would naturally be drawn of the ge
neral feeling that could not but exist
towards these institutions, we aro
• called to deplore j n nin .. .
• where they have been est ihr u
■ cold indifference and
■ apathy towards them, which sell
; fails to chill the zeaUnd dIJ *

Ij is they to whom we look f or a ’con
' scientious discharge of every dm*
• and who we expect by every effort i a
■j their power to be useful in their da!
i and generation. It is an i mpor J t
' matter for them to examine into the
I estimate they make of the value rs
Sunday Schools, and the part thl
i take in promoting their success it
: isa , “ ,aUer }°° of serious enquiry
■ i with those who wear die distinguish

! j der, and what the zeal they evince'
; lor the prosperity of institutions S( !
: justly called nurseries of the church
■ | Do they labour to diffuse the benefits
; of their influence far and wide ? i t
f is a matter too true, and too import,
i ant to be concealed, that a general re*
f, gret exists among the churches, that
;, not more consistency is exhibited by
’ their pastors in the interest they nti

I I what they are found actually to be
■ doing to extend their usefulness
' The ministry, when worthy of it. are
• justly regarded as examples to their
i flocks in all things. Hence it is that
11 on them of necessity rests much res.-

DIED, in Lexington, Geo. on the nieht of ihe
22d inst. in the twenty-seventh year of her age,
i Mrs. MARION McHENIIV, consort of Mr..fames
I McHenry, of the city of Savannah. Edinburgh
( gave her birth—Georgia a grave. Tb call the tie
ceased, a dutiful child—affectionate sister—loving
I and devoted wife—lender parent—humane mistress
i and amiable companion, would be but common
j praise. In her death charity lost its most zcal
-1 ous and active handmaid—the church one ol
j its brightest ornaments. In early life, religion
' marked her for its own, and she seemed as one de-
I Uicated to the Lord. To her friends and family—
j “ her heart—her love—her griefs were given; but
: all her serious thoughts had rest in heaven.” Oft
like a minstrel angel was she seen to extend the cuj>
of .plenty to the distressed in poverty—pour the oil
of joy into the wounds of the sick and atllicted, and
bind up the broken heart w ith the Gospel’s pre
cious promises. Long will the faultering accents
of dying widows, whisper the name of their bene
factress, and orphans yet unborn will feel the in
fluence of her beuevolence. These reflections will
leave a long perfume behind to mitigate the ago
ny of a bereaved husband and disconsolate fawny*
Let them remember, that while on earth, sfoe not
only “allured to brighter worlds” by her example
! but overcoming death, has triumphantly l«d the
