THEi ¥OWT.
THE SQUIRREL,
/By Charlotte Smith.
The Squirrel with aspiring mind.
Disdains to be on earth confin'd,
Hut mounts aloft in air;
T he pine tree’s giddiest height he climbs,
Oi scale the beach tree’s loftiest limbs,
And builds his castle there.
As nature's wildest tenants free,
A merry forrester is he
In oak o’er shadowed dells,
Or glen remote, or woodland lawn,
Where the doe hides her infant fawn,
Among the birds he dwells.
Within some old fantastic tree.
Where time has worn a cavity,
'IPs winter food is stored ;
The corn, beset with many a scale,
ThC chesnut in his coat of mail,
Or nut complete his hoard.
Of-wiae prescience thus possest,
lie near it rears his airy nest.
With twigs and moss entwin’d;
He gives his roof a conic form.
And safety sheltere’d from the storm,
He braves the rain and wind.
Though plumcless, he can dart away,
Swift as the woodpecker or jay,
His sportive mate to woo;
His summer food is berries wild,
And last year’s acorns cups are filled
Por him with sparkling dew.
Soft is his shining auburn coat.
And ermino white hisdowny throat,
Intelligent his mein;
.With feathery tail and ears alert.
And little paws and hands expert.
And eyes so black and keen.
Soaring above the earth-born herd
•Os beasts, he emulates the bird,
Vel feels no want of wings ;
Exactly poised he dares to launch
In sir, and bounds from branch to brand',
With swift elastic springs.
And thus the man of mental worth.
May rise above the humblest birth.
And adverse fate control;
jfto the upright heart be joined
The active persevering mind,
Ami firm, unshaken soul,

CHARLESTON, Sept. 20.
Totrc Late*.
The regular trading ship I’erfcct, Cap.
tain Prince, arrived at this port yesterday,
In 43 days from Liverpool; sailed from,
tin Koek on the Bth «lt. By this arriva
we have received Liverpool papers to the
4th, and London to the 3d August, both
inclusive, but not our regular files. Ex»
tracts from our papers will Ipe found be
low.—[Courier.
Commercial letters to the 4th ult.—Tlie
Cotton market remained about the same as
last accounts. A letter of the 3d, says,—-
“ This week we have had a fair and regu
lar demand,with scarcely any variation in 1
prices. The public sales to-day, consist- 1
uig of 2400 bales Sea-Island, and 1200 N • J
Orleans and Alabama, were well attended. 1
Os the former, only half were -sold, atma 1
ihor irregular prices, but mostly at a de- '
sline of f I per lb.; the latter were near
ly all sold at the late currency.”
It is stated that the Arnauts and Wall,,
chians, after betraying Prince Ypsilanti,
had assassinated thoir principal chiefs,
and that Ypsilanti himself was confined in
the Austrian fortress of Carlsbourg.
The reports respecting the affairs be
tween Russia and the Porte, are very con
trudictory; while letters from Constant!
nople state that the Emperor Alexander
had disapproved of the conduct of his mi-,
nister at that court, and that he was to be
immediately r< called Accounts direct
from St. Petersburg slate, that the Em.
peror had deman led complete satisfaction
for the insuits offered his ambassador, to
be made in eight days, which, if not com
plied with, the. Ambassador was ordered
to leave Constantinople, , n d the Russian
troops would immediately enter Moldavia
His r.aj.-sty i mbarked on board the
Royal George yatch, at Portsmouth, on
the 31*1 July, and sailed the next day for
Ireland. Great preparations were making
for his reception in Dublin. A letter from
that place says, “His majesty’s coachman
attracts gnat attention here. He is con
sidered the largest man in the city ”
It appears that the report of the burn
*ng of Smyrna, was yjith ut foundation.—

been i ommuted by the Turks, yet at the

LONDON, July 30.
The Paris Journals of Wednesday am
Thursday informs us that the Committee
of the Chamber of Peers on the projet dt
lot, relative to the Consulship on the
newspapers and periodical works, having
reported in favor of the proposed law, it
was carried on Tuesday, after some dis
cussion, by a majority of S 3 to 40. Tal
leyrand spoke against it on the ground
that the liberty of the press is necessary
in the present state of the world, and that
no government can safely refuse what is
called for by the spirit of the age.
The Law was presented te the King on
Wednesday.
It is mentioned in a letter from Ham
burg, of the 17th inst. that the purchases
recen’ly made of iron, lead, salt petre, and
other articles, composing marine and war
like stores, had been so extensive as to
have raised the prices of those articles,
and to have caused a rumor that Russia
was about to equip a powerful armament.

Extract of a letter from the agent to
Lloyd’s, at Constantinople, dated June 25:
“The Turkish fleet having proceeded as
far as Mytiline, has been driven by the
Greek squadron within the castles of the
Dardanelles, where it is waiting reinforce
ments, now preparing with great activity.
The Greeks have destroyed one man of
war ; and according to report, have taken
a frigate.”
“ Jtrussels, July 25—A letter from Smyr
na, of the 19th of June, says, that the Sul
tan has given orders to exterminate the
whole Christian population of the Morea,
and the islands of the Archipelago ”
August 3.
We received yetterday the Fans papers
of Monday last. A Vienna article ot the
19th ult. asserts on the authority of ac
counts just received from Petersburg)!,
that the Emperor of Russia had given a
categorical answer to the complainU of
the Ottomon Forte against the Baron de
Stregonoff, and had demanded complete
satisfaction for the insults offered to his
Ambassador, to be given within eight
days, otherwise the Ambassador was to
quit Constantinople, and the Russian troops
were to enter Moldavia. It is added that
all the Russian Generals had received
sealed orders, which they were to open
on a specified day.
From Tunis, it is stated, that the Dey
was hastily arming several of his vessels,
which were intended to act in concert
with ti e Tmks against the Greeks. The
few Greeks who were at Tunis, wereiu a
situation of great alarm, in consequence
of the dreadful threats cf the populace
We have been favored with the peru
sal of a variety of letters, dated Smyrna,
261 h of June, Constantinople, the 2d, and
Odessa, the 6th of July.
These letters, instead of being written
in a decided tone, as to the prospect of a
Continental War, as heretofore, now ah
lege that it was the opinion at Vienna that
matters would be speedily arranged, and
that the Turkish Government manifested
a very conciliatory disposition
The letters from Constantinople direct,
to-day, dated the 2d ult. appear to be
written under the same conviction. They
mention also, tntt the “ Holy Feast,”
which occurs every year, and lasts three
days, commenced on the Ist of July, and
the first two days had passed off without
anv disturbances, although (hey might
have been expected from the temper of
the people. It was hoped, therefore,
that it would terminate without any ex
cesses being committed.
From Odessa, the accounts are to the
7th ult from which the following' is an
extract:
“ Odessa, July 6.—We have been in great
anxiety here for some days past, under
the expectation of the commencement of
hostilities between Russia and Turkey;
butwc are happy now testate, that a con
rier, with dispatches from St .Petersburg,
arrived here yesterday. On his authority
we derive intelligence that there will br
no disagreement between Russia and Tur
key.” '
From Smyrna the letters are ofthe26ih
June ; and at this place also we are glad
to learn that the threats of the Turks have
not been realized, n« further barbarities
having been attempted.
We have received this morning two
Hamburgh Mads, bringing papers io the
28tb ult In the Hamburgh Correspon
dent of that date it a cemmunication from
Constantinople, described as authentic,
and containing the explanations of the Ot
toman Government in reply to urgent re.
monstrances which, it is said, were made
by all the Great European Powers, rela
tively to the cruelties exercised by the
Turks towards the Greeks These exnla
nations of the Reis Effendi, (if such in
deed they may be called, being in fact
merely counter-assertions) ascribe the
conduct of the Porte to necessity, and
disclaim every tiling like gratuitous cru
elty- All intention of a wish to produce
hostilities between Turke> and Uussia, is
likewise denied, because, as is truly oa
served, the Ottoman Government “ is vc
ry sensible that as it is unable to re press
the rebels, it is not in a condition to act
alone, against that power 1 , and it well
knows, that in the present state of harmo
ii) between all the European Cabinets,
no state would draw a sword in its de
fence.” There is in this confession, so
much ot undeniable truth, that it would
not be easy for Russia, if she felt disposed
to foment a separate quarrel, to make out
such a case of necessity as would justify
an appeal to the sword.
The following are extracts from these
papers.—
From an authentic Communication from Con
tianttnofi'e, June 28.
“ Very urgent remonstrances have been
made to the Ottoman Forte by all the great
European Powers, respecting its sever,
and cruet conduct towards the Greeks,
and the attitude it seems disposed to as'

mate Ally of Austria, Prussia, England am*
France Upon all these remonstrances

the Ambassadors with the greatest com

Letter from Constantinople, June 28.
“ The English a id French Ambassadors
i at Constantinople have desired the com
manders of the squadrons of theii rvspec
live nations in the Archipelago to act hos
, tiiely towards the Greeks, if they should
i attempt to force the entrance ol tne har

: “ Constantinople, June 28.
i “A second Russ a packet boat from
i Odessa arriving, on the 17th, at the en
t nance of the Black Sea, the Turkish Ad
-1 miral declared that the entrance of the
I packet boat was evpressly forbidden, and
that if it atiempted toenter he would have
• it sunk ; but the courier on board w oulci
, not be prevented from landing. As a re-'
L. port was soon spread at Constantinople,
; that the Porte had put a guard or. b a.d
i of the Packet, and that the Austrian in
j ternuncio complained of this violation of
the law of nations, the Rtis Effendi ,le
, dared that the story was false. He knew

they did every thing to live at peace,
