Attempt to anasinnte Colonel Browne. —
An attempt lias been made recently to us
■usinate Colonel Browne, so well known
from his connection with the Milan Com
mission. the account in contained in a
letter from the Duke of Leeds to the Earl ■
of Liverpool. The following statement
has been published!
“Colonel Browne some time ago came
over to England, where having learnt the
particular charges brought against him, he
returned to Italy to collect decisive evi
dcnce for the refutation of those calum
nies. V hilsl he vva» here, he did not con
ceal his belief that his life Would be at
tempted iu Italy; and be mentioned to tbc
gentlemen from whom we receive this
statement, that he commonly carried pis
tol* for sell- defence He had nearly ar
ranged his affairs at Milan, and had alrea
duy forwarded all ins papers to England,
meaning to follow them himself in less
than HJ days, when, on the Bth inst. re
turning late at night and alone fro u the
Opera, he was attacked by two assassins,
evidently with no intention of robbery;
for though they disabled him, they did
not attempt to plunder him of his watch,
money or other valuables. The Colonel
defended himself resolutely, aud a violent
struggle ensued, in which he received
four wound* in lire head, appearently with
a knife, and one in the chest, evidently
with a stiletto. The last would certainly
have been fatal, but for the thickness of
Ids great coat, and waistcoat. As it was,
the weapon penetrated on the left side of
the chest, and considerably injured the
seventh rib. The Colonel’s triend am*
physician, Doct Ciceri, was called in, who,
on perceiving the nature of the wounds,
thought it necessary to require the assis
tance of an eminent surgeon, Professor, of
the Milan Hospital, and both of them con
tinned assiduously to attend their patient.
Three of the wounds in the head were
pretty deep, ihc other slighter; but the
most dangerous was the wound in the
chest; from which, however, hi* medical
attendants are inclined to think that fata!
consequences arc not to be apprehended,
it is attended with acute pain, restlessness
and difficulty ofbrcathing; but these symp
toms have been allevated by bleeding.—
Upon the whole, the Colonel is going on
as wcil as could be expected; he is in the
hands of very skillful men, and will re
ceive every benefit that care and attention
can give. The assassins have for the pre
sent escaped, hot the government has
taken every step for their apprehension
The above account is contained inaiettei
from the Duke of Leeds to the Earl ol
Liverpool; and a bulletin by Dr. Cicen
snd Professor Pal*tta,aip to six c. m on
the 10th inst. has also been forwarded, fin
the satisfaction of the Colonel’s friends
It is hoped, that he will himself be able to
f .rite by tbc itezt '’.curier.” ,

Friday was settling day at the Ex
change, when one of the leading specula
tor* for a rise, took nearly ',000,000/ of
the.consols previously purchased for them.
This operation was anticipated, anti relied
on by many j.a the cause of an advance in
the prices, but the opposite party being
prepared for the delivery of the whole
that was claimed, the funds remained sta
tionary All the great speculators fora

amount, although none to the extent of
the instance above mentioned. The abil
ity to supply HO large a demand; at a short
notice, is a singular circumstance, It in
sufficient evidence in itself of that which
we are assured is the fact, that the public
at large have been disposing oftheirstock
very freely, in the interval since the psy
ment of the dividends. We may add,
that then-are few indications more certaiir
of an approaching depression of the value
of stock. The abundance of money pro
duetd by the circulation of the dividends,
is at present considered the chief support
of tile market. Consols for the February
account left off yesterday at 69.'1-8 to J,

From the JVorfolk Herald.
ft Is too generally the belief that ano
ther wnrinLurope would have the effect
of reviving Commerce and raising the
price of our products ic>
realise these expectations the v ar must be
of the same character as that which grew
out of the French Revolution and termi
nated in 1815. -But, considering the pie
sent situation of Europe, there is not the
least probability of such a war. V here
is the masterspirit to raise and direct the
mighty whirlwind? Bonaparte ts literally
entombed alive, and if lie were to be set
at liberty, he would be impotent for ali
the purposes of raising the storm —the
Emperor of Russia naght be the person to
reviv* the scenes of the ten years which
followed Napoleon’s Coronation; butthere
is nothing in his general conduct and poli
cy to strengthen the opinion that he
would, like Napoleon, wage a w.r for the
professed object of conquering Europe,
if he believed himself possessed of power
enough for Such an achievement. Eng
land is not disposed to take field again,
and will not, tut less compelled by unavoid
able necessity —not, at all events,upon spe
dilation, as siie was sometimes Wont to
doon past occasions. The same may lie
said of France—and upon the course
which these two natii r.s pursue, in the
‘event of war between any of the other
powers, will mainly depend the revival
of our foreign Commerce.
Suppose, as is anticipated, that the
Northern powers should attack Naples —
here indeed would be a war, but it could
h&ve no effect on our Commerce. It
would give us no more of the carrying
trade, nor afford us a belter market for
our produce than we now have.
Suppose Spain and Portugal become
partners with Naples in her struggle for
independence, which must inevitably be
the case from a principle of self preserva
tion, how w iff neutral commerce be bene
fitted? The war will not affect, in any ma
terial degree tne commercialjnterests of
those nations, 't hey may be sorely pressed
by land, on the ocean they will have no en
emytofear. Neither Austria, Pr ussia, nor
Russia have the naval means and energies
for giving any serious check to their
commerce, and they will stiff have it in
their power to be their own cAriers; or, at
all events, should there be an opening for
neutral trade, England and France would
avail themselves of it to the exclusion of
anything like a profitable cornpetion from
this country. Such a war would but slight
ly affect the agricultural operations of
Europe. Where they might be checked
by tile desolating scythe of war, the sur
plus production in oilier parts of that
continent would be more than adequate
to supply the deficiency.
Hut, it may be asked, will France and
England remain neutral while the other
powers are at war? As we before observ
ed neither will draw the sword but in the
last ri’- r —and even in that event they
will pi v -bly not be opposed to each o
tber. If, indeed, a war should take place
between these two great maritime pow
ers, we might with some plausibility cal
dilate upon a brisk foreign trade. The
navy of G; eat Briton would soon sweep the
ocean of her enemy’s commerce, “and
leave the field once more for us to bustle
in.”
But at present there is not the least pro
bability of such an event. If we could sup
pose them magnanimous enough to es
pouse the cause of liberal principles and
free government, there would be some rea
son l.) hope that they would give their
united aid in support of the constitutional
powers, against the despotic and ambitious
pretentions of the northern tyrants—and
such a war would no doubt be higly po
pular with their subjects.—But to sup
pose either France or England capable of
going to War in defence of such a cause
would be to evince a total ignorance of the
character and policy of their government
—such a procedure would exhibit the an
omaly of sovereigns contending for the
rights of the people of other nations, and
at the same time denying the enjoyment
of similar rights to their own subjects.—
The time has been, indeed, when England,
however inconsistant if might seem, would
not have hesitated a moment in taking such
a step, if she saw her interest in it; but
that time has gone by, and she now fiuds
it as much her interest to be at peace as
she formerly did in being at war-
On the other hand, for England nnd
France to side with the usurpers would be
a hazardous step.—They might unite the
combustible materials which have for some
time past been threatening the downfall of
both governments, and which have been
kept from exploding only by a concentra
tion of all the energies, which a state of
peace enabled them to direct to that pur
pose.
Our arguments upon this subject are of
course predicated upon the presumption
that the present monarchs of Spain, For
tugal and Naples will remain true to their
subjects and to the constitution. What
would be the consequences of their defec
tion, it is not for us to predict; hut there
is at least a possibility that the old King of
Naples will lack firmness ; n the hour of
trial and shrink’ from his duty, over awed
and subdued by the mighty men of Lay
bach—and that if the Cortes of Spain per
mit that slippery fellow, Ferdinand VII to
accept the invitation of the tyrants, he will
never return to his capital, until he is es
corted thither by an army of Cossacks, as
Louis the 18th was. Will the people of
those countries, all kingless and illigiti
mate as they may be, dear to maintain their
freedom and their constitution against this
«•
overwhelming coalition ts despoU? Ko
doubt of it—And let those despots take
care that the flame cf revolution, whtou
they talk of extinguishing, does not b^r
more fiercely by the very means they use
to subdue it, until it spreads over the
whole of Europe. The people of Europe
are too enlightened to be passive inslru
me> ts of their own degradation and bon
dage; nor will they submit to the humilia
tion of putting whips into the> hands ol
despots to scourge their subjects with.
They are not the same people who warn a
against liberty in ’94, and united all their
energies to put down the French Kevolu
tion; the principles of that revolution, on
the contrary, prevail in a greater or less
degree over the whole continent ol Eu
rope; A war, therefore, once begun upon
the pretexts alleged at I. ay bach, and it
will defy the utmost stretch of the imagin
ation to predict the consequences. Kings
may be hurled from their thrones, and
their institutions, yes all the insignia ol
their power sink beneath the mighty
shock of revolution.

Every one w ho serves the public, is the
servent of a hydra-minded master, whom
it is wholly impossible to please—but
whom it is a very easy matter to offend.
O' all those, whose vocation it is to admin
ister to the real or imaginary wants of the
public, the printer of a newspaper perhaps
works the hardest, and receives the
share of approbation in reward for his ser
vices. Is his paper well printed—“there
is nothing worth reding in it.” Does he
fill it witli news and extracts from fortigu
prints—something original and local, is
called for. Dues he Write two or three
columns a day—every nose is turned up at
his hom*epun productions,wondering that
he could not select something hotter to
fill his columns with. Does be write poli
tics, he “gets into a troubled sea,” and
draws upon Uis head the enmity of at least
half the community. Does he give criti
ques on the drama—the merchant or the
politician exclaims, “What’s Hecuba to me
or I to Hecuba?”—and so forth, and so
forth—to the end of the chapter.
He has the consolation of knowing, how
ever, that there is one class, and a nume
rous one, of readers, whom he can scarce
ly can ever fail to gratify—and that is, a
set of sage gentlemen, who, having had
leisure in their youth to take a few
draughtsat lha Pierian spring, only read
for the pleasure of finding fault—and, like
a monkey looking a child’s head; they are
never displeased, but when disappointed
in their search.
A daily newspaper, prepared always in
haste—composed of many thousands of
separate letters; the misplacing of a single
one of which, .wakes inumerable chances
for error, while there is but one chance
for correctness —of course presents u daily
feast to these literati. The detection of
an r turned upside down, an a too much,
or a * wanting, is a treat so flattering to
their literary sagacity, that they cannot
but in their hearts love the printer who

After the performance of Orestes, on
Wedensday evening, loud calls of“AVaii, ’*
“ Kean, ” from every part of the house,
were answered by his re-appearance on
the stags, when lie thus addressed the
audience;
Ladies and Gentlemen —l am sorry it is
not in my power to comply wi h what 1
understand is the general wish of extend
ing my engagement tor another night;
but in a very’ short interval of time 1 again
■ shall have the honor of offering myself
•a candidate for your father favours. In
expressing my acknowledgements for the
g"eat attentions paid to me in Boston, 1
must say, that this extraordinary meed of
my exertions was rather my AoDethan my
expectation. The justly acquired charac
ter of town as the Literary Kmpovium
of the new' world, must fill the breast ot
an adventure with feelings of anxiety
and apprehension, and under such influ
ences had I the honor of first piesenting
my humble talents to your investigation.
The result has exceded my most sanguin
expectation; and your approbation comes
with double relish, as 1 am convinced the
ingredients Inure been examined with
Philosophical precision. I hope, ladies
and gentlemen, that on my return by en
deavouring to deserve, 1 shall obiain a
continuation of this flattering attention
and encouragement; till which time, I
respectfully and greaUuily take my leave.
This short address was received with
repeated cheers.
We add with pleasure, that during his
stay here, Mr. Kean has received invita
tations to visit our first circles, and been
noticed by our must distinguished citi
zens; and, notwithstanding it was not
known that he was to leave town on
Thursday, immediately after his carriage
arrived at his lodgings, it was surround
ed by several hundred citizens, who, on
his departure, gave him a round of hear
ty cheers. Thus much we have deemed
it our duty to state, as a small return for
the gratification we have received from
bis performance. t Jiost Cent.
