The Mendicant Monk—An Anecdote.

being in company where Erasmus was

and being hard pushed to declare what

answered the monk : “It is the sin of

“No,” said the monk ; “ but we ecclesi

Legend of the Wandering Jew. \
!n iJ'-'S, u.e Metropolitan of Armenia*, I
on Ins 1 ravels arrived in England, and was 1
interrogated of many things respecting '
thi churches under his Jurisdiction '
Among other things, being asked as to '
that Joseph (concerning whom there is 1
much talk among men.) who was present 1
at the passion of the Lord, ai d spoke 1
with him, and who yet lives as a witness
ui the truth us the Christian religion, and 1
whether be had evtrseen or heard of him. 1
seriously a.'Hrmcd the truth of such ic
p it; am a certain knight of Antioch, f
iti h s retinue, who vas his interpreter, ‘
and who was also known to one of the 11
abbot’s servants, (by name Henrv tie
Spigournel,) spoke in the French as foi
l, ws:“ My master well knows that in. i, o
and a little before he journeyed to the s
.vest, the said Joseph ate at lus table, r
whom he had often seen and heard speak.” r
And being afterwards asked respecting c
what passed between our Lord Jesiis n
Christ and ‘he said Joseph, he answered t
rli'S:“lu ih- time of tlu passion of v
Jesus Cnrlst, when, having been taken by a
the Jews, he was brought before ibe Gov- o
ernor Pi ate in the prxiurium, to be judg- li
ed by bun, Pilate, finding no cause of li
death in him, said to them r “Do }e take v.
him, and judge him according to your I)
own law.’ But as the Jews continued to *
clamour yet more loudly, he dismissed y
Bm abbas according to their petition, ami >
•clivered to them Christ, that he might t<
|oc crucified. While the Jewj were
drawing Christ without the prxtorium,
»mI when lie had ci if.'e to the pate, ami

him on the bark with Ins fist in a con
temptuous maimer, and, mocking
said —‘ Go, Jesus go quicker— why do
you delay ?’ Whereupon, Jesus, looking

to ~ie in St- Helena. He often conversed
with Antoniarchi of events of his earliest
age, and recollected the most trifling acts
ul his childhood ; the Doctor being a na
tive o! Corsica, they generally conversed
together in the idiom of the island, winch
iVas quite familiar to Napoleon. The
house at Lcngwood was exceedingly 1
small and uncomfortable, and damp be.

" The library of Napoleon consisted of t

he had afresh supply of what was new and ;
interesting every three months, scut to ;
him under Lord Bathurst's seal. Dinner I
was always served on the plate (service 1

“ Dr. Antoniarchi found a proper
stone on the island, with which he had
prepared plaster, and succeeded very well
in taking a cast of his bust after his death;
unfortunately-it had been shipped to Leg

as a present to the mother ot Bonaparte,
whom he stvts Madame Mere.
« The hair of his head as well as Ins
beard had been shaved, and sent to his re
lations, his household each retaining some
small quantity of it. The Doctor had a
small lock of it in a broach. I had it in
my hand, and confess, and am not asham

From the L'lndicatenr, Sept. Ist to the 9th.
Constantinople, Aoo. I.—The public
tranquility has been again seriously dis
turb'd here, within these few days. On
the 28th of July accounts were received
from the Peloponnesus, which the Divan
' carefully concealed. The people, how
ever, soon saw that they were of an unfa-
H -wmhls t.wUu-r-; .iL was nimoredjhat the
L . rained gr, at advantages, that tire 'new
! Turkish fleet was entirely destroyed,
' utc. On the- 27th in the morning, bands of
assassins, who have long since infest
; cd the city, assembled, an ! jointly resolv
: ed to bid defiance to the firman of llu
Sullan- A party of Janissaries joined
1 them. They forcibly entered the ships of
the Greeks, murdered and plund u-ed at
discretion, and above 200 Greeks were
killed. The government did not resolve
fill the evening to have these bands dis
persed, winch was effected without any
resistance on their pait. Little trouble
was taken to pursue the murderers, and
the feu that v,ere taken were merely pun
ished with the bastinado.
On the 28th an old man appeared, who
Mve himself out ns a prophet, and an
nounced the downfall of the Ottoman Em
pire, from a passage in the Koian.—lt is
impossible to describe the affright of the
3 tp rstitious populace and their boundless
lury. The murders were about to be re
newed ; out at this time the aimed force
dispersed the bands of assassins, and ar
rested the man, who has not since been
heard of
On tire 2ffih, small bands appeared a
gnin as iisu d, who murd Ted single Gret ks
without resistance. On the oOth the
scenes of the 27ih were renewed, md the
Government shewed more indifference
than on that day ; not the slightest n.ea
sure being taken to presi me order. Yes
terday the city was again more qui“t.—
flic supineneess of t lie government is in
excusable, for these bands are as cowardly
as blood thirsty ; the smallest detachment
of troops is sufficient to disperse them.
Os pubdc affairs noti ing has ;. et been
known; the m gocialions between the
Reis Effendi and the Foreign Ministers
continue. The French and the English
appear to act in concert,- so do the Bus
sians and the Austrians. The Spanish
.Minister, on the other hand, the advocate
ol the Greeks, acts nearly alone, or at
least supported only by the Ministers of
some infvrior powers, for whom ■he Port
has hut little respect. The Netherlands
have joined Fiance and England. It is
said that sumo points had been agreed
upon, when the French ami English party
suddenly started some difficulties, and
the negotiation had 10 begin afresh. Be
tween Ali Pacha and the Divan fresh ne.
goclatioiis have certainly been entered up
on and also with (he Albanian Chief Isma
el, who has hitherto spared the Gre ks
The negocialions with the Barbary States
have wholly failed ; but new ones are
said to be, opened with Persia. The Pa
clias in Moldavia and Wallacbia received
orders tOjpursue the Greek bands without
intermission, and who’ly to extirpate them.
Ihe Pachas, sn (heir side have asked for
reinforcements, which the Divan immedi
ately granted. An insurrection among the
Survians was spoken of. Symptoms of the
plague have mamfi.sted themselves among
the Asiatic troops in the neighborhood

The King’s Return to London <
Ihe Roy td squadron, with his Majesty i
on Board, sailed from Dttnleary harbour, t
on Wednesday, the 6th instant, and pro- 1
ceeded within the banks to near Wick- ' t
i
low, when the wind came dlreCUy round i
ami headed them, so that they could .iot )
possibly get ihiongh the Swash, the
name of the deep water between lac
Kish bank and Afhlovv bank. The squu
dron. then fore, was obliged to pul about,
ar.d at five P. M. on W ednesday, came
to its old moorings at Duuleaiy, after
having been at sea seven hours. On Sa
turday the Koval Squadron again sailed
tVom Dunleary(which is now cMled King’s
Town,) and arrived in Milford Haven the
next day (Sunday.) 'Hie King was de
tained by contrary winds at Milford Ha
ven till ten o’clock on Monday night.—
His Majesty sailed next day with the in
tention to bear round the Land s End,
and up the channel to Portsmouth; but
the wind being adverse, his Majesty re
turned to Mi If rd, and landed ihe.e about
five o’clock, A M. on Wednesday las'-,
and set off with post horses on his way to
London
The turn of his majesty’s head, the
shape of bis hat and clothes have be
come quite the fashion in Ireland since
the King’s visit: every act of the royal
personage has found a crowd of admir
ers; even the manner in which his majes
ty drank his wine is imitated in every com
pany by' those who wish to have a charac
ter as judges of the flavour of Uhtnish.—
The king on public occasions always
drank bumpers, but he kept his glass four
times longer to his lips than is ordinarily
allowed for swallowing a cheerful glass,
and seemed to sipjlhe wine drop by drop,
so that the palate had the fullest opportu
nily of imbibing the flavour of, no doubt,
a rare and rich vintage The king threw
his head gently back as he sipped his glass
out never took the wine from his lipsun- 1
til he had cleared the bumper.

that he had a communication to make on
(he pa't ol'tne government.—His Lordship
lost no time in Waiting on the chief sec
retary, who apologized for sending for
him at so unseasonable an hour, by stat
ing that it was the wish o"liis Majesty,
'hat what he had to impart should be
made known to his Lordship, a id through
hm to the Catholic body, before his M
ajesty’s departure from Ireland, which vva,
fixed for the following day. Mr Grunt
then proceeded to stale, tha Lord Sid
mouth, by the directions of the King, had
sent for Alderman Darley, and ma- e
known his Majesty’s strong displeasure at
that Magistrate’s conduct at. the late en
tertainment. Lord Sidmouth, he added,
had inquired into the character of Aid.
Dailey, and found that before this trans
t action he was a meritorious officer. He
• had learned besides that he had a large
> family, and had expressed the strongest
1 contrition for his offence. These consid
> erations had induced his Majesty to abstain
-for the present from makinghis displeasure
- in the most exemplary way, and confin
' ing the punishment of the transgressing
~ Jr c,:nc:u
, Majesty wished it to be und«i.^V£ h l ,‘**
1 in respect to this incident, he acted alto
tfether from his own feelings, he (M;
• Grant) was nevertheless authorized by
Lord Sidmouth to state, that the senti
1 monts of his Lordship, relative to the
f circumstance, altogether coincided with
t those of his R yal Master—and that in
‘ structions had been given to the Lord
: Lieutenant to conduct the Government of
• this country on principles in accordance
’ with these sentiments.
; The communication to Lord Fingal
was altogether a verba' one. As, how
ever, it was intended for publicity, his
lordship felt the necessity of drawing up
1 a minute of it, and submitting it to" Mr.
■ Grant, for the purpose of obviating all
possible mistake touching a matter of
i such extreme importance. he [ rocted
ings of yesterday impeded the execution
i of his lordship’s design but we expect to
receive a document for publication be
fore the close of the day.
We shall only add a line to say, that
thejCatholic body is perfectly satisfied at
this mode of dealing with the offending
party, whom, for the sake of the country,
they wish to see corrected, but not made
an absolute victim even of his own im.

“My Lord—The time oftlu King’s de

isfaction. His majesty trusts, that, in the
mean time, not only the spirit of Loyal
Union, wheih now so generally exists,
will remain unabated and unimpaired:—
but that every cause of irritation will be
avoided and discountenanced, mutual for
bearanceSc g iod wdl observed & encourag
ed. and a security be thus afforded for the
continuance of that concord among them
selves which is not less essential to his .
majesty’s happiness than to their own ;
and which it has been he chief object of
his majesty, during his residence in this 1
country, to cherish and promote.
“ Dis Majesty well knows,the generos
ity and warmth of heart which distinguish
the character of his people in Ireland, and
he leav, s them with a heart full of affec
tion towards them, and with a confident «
and gratifying persuasion, that li,i s r
