Mess's. <i,\i.Ks & v katon : ! have seen,
by accident, in a South Carolina paper, the
' ('olambiu 1 i-lescope, a long article' agains l
| Mr. (.'raw ford, signed “ A Carolina Far.
j liter.” 'i iie object is to prove that (n tlinr
j gentleman is to he in part imputed, (he
i passage of the Tariff, at the last session of
j Congress. To ( fleet this object, the writer
I has thought proper to inlrode.ee into his
j essay the conduct oftlie Georgia delegation
j on the subject of the tarilf, and the name of
j dr. Forsyth. The first impression on
i reading' this article was, that h was the
j production of a member of congress; For
the honor oftCmili (’aroliua,this impressi.fti
! was not indulged, i hst, became every
| member of congress knows that the staie
ian nl contained, in it. with regard to die
I Ceorgia delegration, is not true; and se
condly, because the’* (. aroima Fanner” Is

j would he guilty of die indecency ofbosi-ov- i
j i iig sue!) praises, in a public newspapei, on .
i hims. Ii and colleagues, under an anom
I moms signature. Whoever may be the 1
w t iter, the attention of the people of .Saudi ;
Carolina, is invited to the following sen- .
tence in his address to diem. i
“ To this genera! inference founded on I
” Mr. Crawford’s Treasury Heports, I <
" might add the suspicions silence in the late (
” discussion of the Taiifi, in die House of s
representatives, ot tlie Georgia delega- 1
“ tioo, and of the friends of Mr. Craw ford, 1
’’ generally. They voted on onr side, it is
" true, but really left the battle to our dele- t
“ gallon, which has with such distinguished
‘ zeal and ability maintained the southern
' interests, i have said they voted with ‘
*’ us. It requires however, one most im- ‘
“ portant exception orqnalilicalion to make ‘
'' the nsseciion true, A motion was made ‘
"by Mr. Owen, of Alabama, to take the ‘
" opinion of the secretary of the Treasury
” on the effect of the proposed duties on the *'
" revenue—a most important point, and ’
*' calculated, above all others, to defeat tlie ‘‘
’bill. The i’arifi men accordingly warm- 41
"!y resisted the motion, seeing that if sue- '
cessfui it must be fatal; and the friends of ~
Mr. L raw ford, led by .Mr. !■ orsvth. joined
'• them in the opposition, lest Mr! Craw ford J .
‘ 4 should be compelled to come out. Isy
ff ill's union the motion wag lost, and the|r
u passage of the bill secured in the house.”
The discussion of the tarilf having unex
pectedly been Mopped by the previous;
i question, no member from Georgia made a
- speech against the bill, but in the more
useful discussion of it in committee cf me
whole house, the Georgia members took
their full share, and their opposition was
strong and constant.
The third section of the bill, as reported
by the committee of manufactures, particu
larly obnoxious to the southern members,
as it covertly increased the duties upon
some ai title* used exclusively to the South,
was stricken out on a motion made by a
member from Georgia, on the ground ofits
repugnance to tlie obligations of the Treaty
with Great I’.rita'm. This section was a
' favorite part of the plan of tlie friends of a
1 manufacturing tariff, ami nothing but a
i conviction that it was repugnant to the
• treaty could have induced them to abandon
it. The hearing of the treaty upon the
I section, although obvious when pointed out,
■ had heretofore escaped the notice of the
■ opposers of the tariff, including those gen
-1 tlemen, whose zeal and ability had produc
■ cd surli warm encomiums, from their fellow
1 citizen of the Columbia Telescope. No
■ merit is claimed for this motion, or for the
■ ground upon which it was made ; it is in
-1 troduced merely, to show that tlie members
> from Georgia were alive to their duty, and
’ quite as useful as those from other states.
Os" Mr. Owen’s resolution, the whole
■ statement contained in the quoted section is
destitute of truth.
The rejection of Mr. Owen’s resolution
ihad no influence in securing tlie passage of
the tariff. There was, from the beginning
, of the session, at all times, a majority ot the
house of representatives in favor of anew
tariff, as tlie slate of tlie votes on every
question will shew. Nor was that resolu
tion rejected in consequence of a union ot
Mr. Crawford's friends with the friends ol
the tariff; nor was any opposition ever
made by Mr. Forsyth to Mr. Owen’s reso
lution, in its original or modified form. On
every question relating to these resolutions,
all the members from Georgia who did vote,
bat one, (Mr. Abbott) voted in favor ol
i ihem. Mr. Oven proposed on the 19lh,
that (lie committee of ways and means
should examine and report what effect tlie
! tariff would have on the revenue. On the
2hrl, Mr. Sharp, of New-York, an opponent
I ol Mr. Crawford, and a friend of the taiiff.
proposed as an amendment to refer to the
Secretary of the Treasury instead of the
committee of ways and means. This a
mendment was opposed by Mr. Forsyth as
unjust to the Secretary of the Treasury, in
the then state of his health. This amend
ment was proposed while Mr. Crawford
was suffering from a severe inflamation in
Ids eyes. The amendment, was, however
adopted.
t On motion to lap the resolution on the
table for the purpose of getting rid of it, the
' votes stood 9’> to 9*b The votes of tlie
.iivnibers from Georgia stood thus :
) mm, .’V oyg. Absent.
’ Abbolt, Cafy, f
Cobb, Tatnaii.
I Forsyth,
’1 hnmpson.
On the L’fitli, Mr. Owen introduced a
* new resolution, similar in character, but
' differing in word-from the former.
V On the 271 h, the house refused to con
[ siller that resolution, IJ-I to Mi. Tin; votes
’ of Georgia stood thus:
For Consideration. Aqninst U. A\:r,j»e ns h f.,c,
s Carry, Cobh, Abbot. (Juthbm,
Forsyth, '1 hnmpson, Tattnall.
From this simple view of facts, the good
people of .Soul ii Carolina will perceive—
That the Georgia delegation was not
silent on file discussion of the tariff:
•That without derogation from the merit
of the South Carolinians, the members ironi
Georgia diG their duty on that question ;
That the friends of Mr. Crawford did
not unite to defeat Mr. Owen’s lesolulion,
nor did Mr. J or.syth lend any opposition in
that resolution, “ lest (he secretary of the
treasury should he compelled to come out,”
A conviction on liie.se points will enable
the people of South Carolina duly to ap
preciate the merits of their voluntary in
■inielor A Carolina Farmer,” and will
justify a word of advice to them, from one
of Ihe Georgi a delegation— not to judge tlie
secretary ot the treasury by any words but
his own. The opinions of Mr. Crawford
on this subject are upon record. Upon
this, as upon all other matters,

1 On Tuesday, May 2. r >, Mr. Harris, the ,
JEronant, ascended in his new Balloon, the |
’ Royal George, from the Eagle Tavern, in ,
the City Road, with Miss Stocks; on the (
1 descent, w hich look place in Bedding on .
1 Park, near. Croydon, owing to some uncx- |
1 plained cause, the gas escaped too fast from -
the Balloon, which came to the earth with .
1 the greatest velocity, and Mr. Harris was ,
unfortunately killed on the spot, his com
-1 panion being severely injured. An inquest
was held on the day following, when satis
factory evidence was adduced that the ca
lamity originated in the unfortunate man’s
being unable to close the large valve of lire
1 balloon, through which the gas escaped
too rapidly. Miss Stocks is better, hut still ;
in danger.—-. Verdict, i£ accidenai death,” |

The General Assembly of the Church o(
Scotland met on the 20th May, their sittings
‘ never exceeded 10 days. The great qiies
-5 tinn before them at this time is that respect
ing the Rev. Dr. Macfarlane of Glasgow. —
*. Me was appointed principal of die Cr.iver
* sity, am! at the same time received a pre
’ sentation to the High Church in Glasgow.
? The Presbytery refused to admit him to the
' liveing, on the ground that he could not
J perform the duties of it at the same time
", with those ofthe priecipal. ThojSynod (a
*. court consisting of several Presbyteries)
* sanctioned this refusal. The General As
-1 sembiy have reversed it, and ordered Dr.
Macfarlane to be admitted. This is a
1 manifest departure from the true pastoral
'* character of a Scotch clergyman, and far
from creditable to any individual in whose
'* favor it is made.
h Accounts from Paris, by express, state
s that on the 2 !tli, the king of France was in
e a very alarming state, and was considered
e by his attendants to be in the most imtni-
I nent danger. The Prognostics respecting
) his Majesty’s extraordinary case have,
however, so often proved fallacious, that
e there is less cause than would exist in that
of any other individual for believing they
s will terminate fatally in the present in
i’ stance. That the king has had a new and
severe «»t tuck of illness, cannot be doubted.

II The following article, from the London
1 San ofthe 2 ( Jth of May, is of very high im
portance, if true; and that there is some
I foundation for the assertions, we can enter

“ We some time since informed our rea
ders tint the independence and repose of
Greece was under the serious consideration
II o( the (Beat Powers. Wc are now enabled
1 to reiterate, in the strongest terms, the as
surance, that i ll tiie Great Cabinets are
thinly resolved that the sanguinary state of
5 affairs in the east of Europe shall be speedi
ly terminated, and that they all concur in
die desire to see the Greeks established in
the enjoyment of that independence which
I they have so nobly merited by their perse
verance, their sacrifices and their heroism.
( Diider tins leeling it is with reluctance, and
only on the pros ing representations and
, remonstrances of the Pone, that the Great
, Calnneis have agreed to a wait the issue of
•his—the fourth campaign which, however,
| fur 1 // hare dijinifive/y resolved shall be the
last ; and unless the Turks, therefore,
, should be infinitely more successful than
, their most sanguine friends will venture to <
. anticipate, the great question which is to
determine the fate of the most interesting
portion of Europe, may he considered as '
having been already decided by the valor
ot its inhabitants. All the accounts are *
highly favorable to the Greek cause-—par- *
liciiknly as the catastrophe at Carlo has
totally incapacitated the Pacha of Egypt
from giving any snppoit to the Ottoman '
arms, even supposing him so inclined.—
Ihe blockade of Algiers is also a most fa- >
vocable incident for the Greeks, and foi; the ,
causeol civilization and Immunity; and our j
realties are aware that a very powerful *
lorce is preparing both at Chatham and |
Him mess, for tiie storming of that strong ;
j hold ot die Algerine pirates.—Cuih the
I Dacha of Egypt and the Dey of Algiers' tire ",
| therefore completely paralysed ; and it is ■
Wt-ll known that the Porte Itself labors nn- "
der the greatest difficulties from the want
ot money. In addition to these gratifying *
tacts, lor the accuracy of which we pledge 1
ourselves, we have (lie satisfaction to assure
our readers that there is not the slightest
luundation tor the alleged promise said to
have been given by Lord M rang ford to the
Divan, for the recall ot the British officers
vvlio are serving in the ranks ofthe Greeks. M
Ihe Porte, therefore, having already failed °
in three successive campaigns, winch have lJ
only increased the strength, enlarged the
resources, and enhanced the glory of its
active and indefatigable enemy’, can have
no rational hope ot acquiring any successes
in the present campaigrf, on which it enters C<
wiiii diminished power and exhausted re- **
sources, dial would Justify in seeking so
continue those scenes of carnage v Inch .
have already been so revolting to tiie best p
feelings ot all Christendom.” f
In corroboration of this article, we find a tH
statement in another paper, that the Groat .
Congress, which was to have taken place. ?
to take the affairs of Greece into considera- '*
tion, will be ilpferred until after the result
ot this fourth campaign. c,i

SiR-—ln consequence of the many mis
conceptions that are abroad, with respect
to the share w hich I have had in die ties- fre
traction of Lord Byron’s Memoirs, I think lh
it right to state the leading facts of t| mt
transaction to the public.
Without entering into tiie respective
claims of Mr. Murray and myself j n i| le
property of these memoirs, (a question
which, now that they are destroyed. can ( |(J
of but little moment to any one,) it j s Sl|f p l
cient to say that, believing the inannscriut
stiil to be mine, I placed it at the disposal
of Lord Byron’ssister, Mrs. Leigh, with the
sole reservation of a protest against its total
destruction, at least without previous pei- u .
sal and consultation among the parties
The majority of the persons present disa
greed with this opinion, and it was the only
point upon which there did exist any ififtVr
ence between us. The manuscript was ac
cordingly torn and burned before our eyes
and I immediately paid to Mr. Murray, jj
the presence of the gentlemen .assembled
2,000 guineas, with interest, &c. being the
amount of what I owed him upon the secu
rity of my bond, and for which I now stand
indebted to my publishers, Messrs. Long- f
man & Co.
Since then the family of Lord Byron I
have, in a manner highly honorable in w
themselves, proposed an arrangement, bv
which the sum thus paid to Mr. Murray
might be reimbursed me ; but from feelings
and considerations, which it is unnecessary
here to explain, 1 have respectfully, but
peremptorily, declined their oiler.
I am, Sir, yours, &c.
