The ship Triton, capt, Maicomb, arri ved here yesterday in 29 days from Li verpool, with London papers to the 12th August, and Liverpool to the 14th—We discover nothing in thesepapers of par ticular importance.

Very little business was done at the Stock Exchange yesterday. Govern ment sent a quantity of Exchequer-Bills for sale, which were readily taken at 30s. premium. The last monthly bulletin of his Ma jesty’s health, was more unfavorable than any issued for several months pre vious. It Is said the Danish government are making extraordinary exertions for the re-establishment of their navy. The London papers contain an article purporting to be a protest of the Ex-Em press Maria Louisa, against the occupa tion of the French throne by the Bour bons. The Courier pronounces it to be a forgery. Several vessels with troops sailed for Oporto on the 9th July—Destination un known. The papers contain repeated notices of improvement in the condition of the manufacturing districts, from the great increase of employment. A transport ship had just arrived at an English port, having on board the origi nal Stuart papers lately discovered at Rome, presented by the Pope to the Prince Regent. The Electors of Hesse, and the Hanse towns, have acceded to the Holy Alli ance. A Paris paper states that Madame de Genlis has entered into a nunnery of Carmelites. At Constantinople a plot has been dis covered, of which the Aga of the Janis saries is supposed to have been the au thor. He was removed to a castle, and there he died—how, need not be told to those who understand the expeditious treatment of the rebels in Turkey. It seems the Grand Seignior is determined to destroy the formidable power of the J«nissarics. It will be an experiment of some difficulty and danger. It is confidently reported at the head quarters of the British army in France, that a further reduction of the troops ser ving in that country will almost directly take place. A Brussels article of August 9, states, that the weather continues to favor the most luxuriant harvest. The fine weather continues to encour age us with the hope of a rich and bounti ful harvest. This confidence spreads beyond the sphere of agriculture, and seems further to animate the operations ofcommerce. Colonial produce rises in f(pfce, while articles of the first necessi ty are rapidly declining. * Thus Coffee has improved within a short time by 255. the cwt. and sugar 15s. per cwt. Mr. Moore, to whom his countrymen have given the surname of Anacreon, who is the author of some lyrical effusions which enjoy a high reputation in Eng land, and who has printed a poem upon an Oriental subject, for which the Lon don booksellei s agreed to give him 3000 guineas before it was written* is now in Paris. A letter from Madrid announces that St. Ignaco de Loyola has just been na med captain general of the Spanish Ar m ejfe, and invested with the Great Cor don of Charles 111. It is a new proof of the credit and favor the Jesuits enjoy in that kingdom. Madame Murat has sold so many dia monds at Vienna, that she has actually lowered the price from 100 florins to 60 per carat. The Prince Royal of Sweden and his son Oscar are expected at Christiana to wards the end of July. The latter will be installed Viceroy of Norway by espe cial order of the king. It is not decided whether he wdi afterwards fix his resi dence in Christiana. An obscure allusion is made in several of the German Journals, to an attempt at assassinating the Crown Prince of Swe den. It is said that six individuals were engaged in this conspiracy, who in tended to obtain admission into the pa lace; but their project being discovered, every precaution was taken to render it abortive. Letters .received yesterday from Rome announce the nomination of several Prelates to filTthe high ecclesi astical which have been so long vacant. Archbishop Talleyrand-Perri gord, Due of Rehns, is appointed to the see of Paris. The trial of Roger O’Connor, has e ventuated in his acquittal. The verdict was loudly applauded, and great rejoi cings have taken place, in consequence of his release. Mrs. Bellington—This lady has at length quitted Great-Britain. After an absence of sixteen years, her husband, Mons. Fellissant, finds that he cannot live without her, and therefore came to this country for the purpose of removing her. Paris, July 31. Several of the French Journals have announced that the Dutch Government at St. Eustatiushave issued a proclamation opening the ports of that island to all na tions. We have a mass of papers from Eng land to a very recent date, but they are extremely barren of news, either of a political or speculative character; exhi biting a scene of the most profound tranquility, throughout Europe. >What cver of interest could be found in these Journals, we ha*e selected, Prom a late London Paper. TALLEYRAND. The following outline of this e«traor dinary being is thus powerfully drawn by Lady Morgan, in her new work on France: “ I had frequently seen this celebra ted personage and future historical char acter, at court; upon other public occa sions, in the bustle of processions, at the nuptuial pomp of Royalty, under the holy donve of Notre Dame, at the deepest tragedy, at the liveliest comedy, amidst tiie solea.nity of the royal chapel and the revelry of the feasting court: but I saw him always the same; cold, motion less; not abstracted, but unoccupied; not absent, but unmoved; no tint varying the colourless hue of his livid complex ion, no expression marking its character on his passive countenance. His figure seemed the shell of a human frame, des poiled of its organic arrangements: or, if the heart beat or the brain vibrated, no power of penetration could reach the re recesses of the one, or guess at the wor king of the other. Prom the mind of this man the world seemed contemptu ously shut out; and if this most impas sable form and face indicated character or opinion, one would have thought at the first glance tnis is surely the being who has said, speech was given to man to conceal his thoughts.” It seemed as if the intimacy of love, the confidence ol friendship, the community of counsel, could never draw the mind to that coun tenance, which, amidst all the vicissi tudes, versatility, changes, and contrasts in the life of its owner, had never been “ A book, in which men read strange things.” It was indeed a book written in a dead language.” La Fayette’s observations on Bona parte are worth recording; Lady M. says, “ I was desirous to learn how Bona parte seemed affected at the moment that gen. La Fayette, at the head of a deputation who came to thank him in the name of Chamber for his voluntary abdi cation, appeared before him—“ We found him,” said general La Fayette, “ upon this occasion, as upon many oth ers, acting out of the ordinary rules of calculation.neither affecting the pathet ic dignity of fallen greatness, nor evin cing the uncontrolable dejection of dis appointed ambition: of hopes crushed, never to revive; and of splendor quench ed, never to rekindle. We found him calm and serene; lie received us with a faint but gracious smile; he spoke with firmness and precision. I think the par allel for this moment was that when he presented his breast to the troops drawn out against him, on his return from El ba, exclaiming, “ I am your Emperor; strike, if you will.” There have been splendid traits in the life of this man, not to be reconciled to his other modes ®fconduct: his character is out of all ordinary keeping; and to him the doc trine of probabilities cpuld never, in any instance be applied.” DOMESTIC ANDREW JACKSON. The following description of gen. Jack son is an extract from his life, just published. In the person of gen. Jackson, is per ceived nothing of the robust or elegant. He is six feet and an inch high, remar kably straight and spare, and weighs not more than a hundred and forty five lbs. His conformation seems to disqualify him for hardship; yet, accustomed to it from early life, few are capable of endu ring fatigue to the same extent, or with less injury. His dark blue eyes, with brows arched and projecting, posses a marked expression; but when, from any cause excited, they sparkle with lustre and penetration—ln his manners he is pleasing—in his address, commanding, while his countenance, marked with firm ness and decision, beams with a strength and intelligence that strikes at first sight. In his deportment, there is nothing re pulsive. Easy, affable, and familiar, he is open and accessible to all. Influen ced by the belief, that merit should con stitute the only difference in men,, his attention is equally bestowed on honest poverty, as on titled consequence. No man, however, inconsiderible his stand ing, ever approached him on business, that he did not patiently listen to his story, and afford him all the informa tion in his power. His moral character is without reproaich, and by those who know him most intimately, he is most esteemed—Benevolence, in hjm, is a prominent virtue, that never passed, dis tress, without seeking to assist and re lieve—He is, however, not without some of those foibles, which heaven always mingles in the composition of man. Vice i and virtue are often found in the same bosom, which, like light and shade in pictures, reflect each other in brighter contrast. Deriving from his birth a tem per irritable and hasty, it has had the , effect to create onemiee, and involve htJ in disputes, which have sometimes biJ hitn in ihe field of'individual contej On this subject he lias been heard to r? mark. ttiat throughout life, he had «,L it a settled rule, never to insult* or xv lingly assail the feelings of any cl! trolled by this golden rule, ans foflu* ced by reason, we should doubtless fi dom err; but it is a misfortune inciden to nature, that the mind, when irritate! not unfrequently induces improper con elusions from premises, and ascribes i ttntiou to conduct and language i themselves innocent—Wise is he ’n, culiarly blest, and, greatly to be’env ed, who in every situation, before \ acts, can deliberately think. It was th quality, which on his entering the a my, induced many to fear he would proi too rash for a safe commander—that o casions would arise, when he would su fer his judgment to be estranged, throua the improper exercise of feeling. Even have proved the fallacy of the conje ture, and shown, that there were lior who reasoned more dispassionately i the fitness and propriety of measmes nonemore cautious, where caution wj necessary, or more adventurous, whe daring efforts were required. Few gei erals had ever to seek for order, amid a higher state of confusion, or obtain? success through more pressing difficu ties. The effects he produced, vmd circumstances gloomy and now through his eloquence and persu sion, and again by his firmness, portraj a character for decision, and it timate and familiar to human natun That the hireling soldier, prodigal of lii life, because his sovereign orders, ait the mere echo of his superiors, should ei Certain a respect for his commander,! too commonly the case, to excite surpri —of such materials gen. Jackson’s arm was not composed; they were freevnei citizens, yet with ihe exception of who abandoned him, in his advam against the Indians, there was scared one who served with him, officer or so dier, that was not warmly and partic larly attached to him. General Jackson possesses ambitio but it rests on virtue, and ambitio which, regulated by a high sense of ho or, leads him to desire that pleasu which follows good actions—not th which is ,run after.”—No man is mo disposed to hear and respect the opi ions of others, and none where much at stake and at conflict with his ow less under their influence—He has n ver been known to call a council of wi whose decisions when made, were shield him from responsibility or c« sure. His council of war, if doubtii himself, was a few officers, in whom fully confided, whose advice was rega ded, if their reasons were conclusi\ but these being unsatisfactory, he at on adopted and pursued the course sugg< ted by his own mind. Much as we may delight to range the the field of battle, in quest ol acts, fix a hero’s character, yet inconsidei ble circumstances often mark it mu more strongly: it* is then that the rail retiring from every thing like moth gives a loose to impulse, and acts fn feelings alone. The general who mei and repels his country’s foes, is not fi quently impelled by ambition, and a i collection that a nation’s gratitude w succeed his efforts: but when, amidst t general carnage, he is seen acting as Christian, and sympathizing in othe woes, his character is marked byvirti and more truly ennobled—At the ball of Tohokepa, an infant w as found, pres ed to the nosom of its lifeless moth* This circumstance being made knot to gen. Jackson, he became interest! for the child, directed it to be brought him, and sought to prevail on some oft Indian women to take care of it—Thi signified their unwillingness to do s and that in as much as all its relatioi had fallen in the battle, they would pr fer it should be killed. The gener; after this disclosure, determined he wou not entrust it with them, but becau himself the protector and guardian the child. Bestowing on the infant tl name of Lincoier, he adopted him in his family, and has ever since manifest! the liveliest zeal towards it, prompted 1 benevolence, and because its fate bore strong resemblance to his owfo who early life, and from the ravages of wa was left in the world forlorn and wretc ed, without friends, or near relations. Os the two great parties, gen. Jackse is attached to the republican. In h first political career, lie rallied on tl side of the people. During Mr. Adam administration, when the pdrty was fe and inconsiderable, he appeared on tl side of the rights of man, espousing an tolerating the principles of free will' until, disgusted with the mode of admin istering the government, he retired fro' the legislative councils of the nation He is not, however, one of those Win infatuated partizans, who holds the opin ion of others in derision, and determine on the good and bad qualities of roan, a< cordingly as he belongs to this and t,h other sect-i-but influenced by the bolie that there are many base and designing and amiable and virtuous men on hot sides, acts on the libera principle that , . “ Worth makes the man, and want < it the fellow.” Blanks, WeatljLExeentei at this
