National Advocate,] v * "Foreign. A considerable brisknei.9 is stated, to ex is' in the iron trade of Staffordshire, Eng land ; while the sale of English calicoes appears to have been very dull at the * late Frankfurt fair. This is attributed-tp ) the low price of grain On the continent’, ’ which prevents the farmers from making 1 their usual purchases. ’ The Duke of /Wellington had returned 1 from Ills late mission to Paris, and it is affirmed he was very little satisfif d with ’ the result of his mission. ’ Tho-Grand ,S'ui an is stated to have* giv en orders t« his troops to respect the re mains of antiquity at Athens, in conse * qnence of the inlerfereace of the £ng. * lish .Ambassador A petition has been presented to the king '' of England in tfie name of the coloured inliabitantsof the island of .fntigna, pray -1 ing that they may be placed on* the same footing as the whites. ’ Sir Gregor M'Gregor, who resides at Edinburgh, has published a vindication of his conduct at the retaking of Porto Hello by the Spaniards, in which he states that the place was- smorised by the enemy 1 through the treachery of an officer who 1 had the command of the outposts, and “ who had engaged to the Duke of San Carlos, in London, to seize the earlies’ op portunity of delivering him into the hands of the Spaniards.” He assserts also, that having escaped on board his ship, lie was preparing an attack upon the town by Ills squadron, which was frustrated only by the premature surrender of the forts commanded by Col. Rafter. A paper called the Be aeon, conducted on the same principles of the John Hull, published in London, was some time since commenced at Edinburgh, and has be come a common nuisance in. that city. By the spirited conduct of a-gentleman whom the Hf-acon had attacked in the most bru tish and ississin-like manner, a few of the supporters of the paper have been dis covered, at the head of whom are the Lord Advocate of .Scotland, and Sir Waller Scott. It was added, that the Lord Ad vocate, who knew that the fact Could no longer be concealed, made a merit of nc him, admitted that he had signed a bond declaring his “earnest wish to counte nance and support the Beacon', and the principles on which it is to be conduct ed,- ’ and binding himself to advance one hundred pounds, if necessary, for its su’p fhe goo'd people of Paris are rcpie sented as very indignant, that tiie-K-ng of England should have given op the idea of paying them a visit. Even Louis is suited to have expressed himself mther warmly >m the subject, and to have given orders lor the immediate massacre of a quantity of live Turtle, which he had procured at a yrreat expense to entertain his Britannic Majesty. The accounts say, that these aum.a's, of which the King of England is known to be excessively fond, “ were get ting rrmaraably fine, and fit for a f!o\ il mast, when the news arrived that George IV. did not intend to visit Paris; an im mediate suspension of ail prep nations took p.ace, and the turtle wen doomed to an untimely fate; th- warrant for their -•xocuUon was signed on Thursday even ing, an. 1 o.

A l-'n rich poet of hcßnu’.e -vardshas,shas, it is said, written a most patiie tic e!> gy, in' which the dying turtles ar i mud' - to i (uncut them hard fate, in'not st-v --ing for a repast to Neptune, for so they designate the Monarch who sways the tri dent of the seas.” The English papers, the major part fit which seldom tell ns any thing favorable to tlie liish nation, give tJie following ac count of an attempt to dramatis..- some of , the leading occurrences during the Kin *’-: laic visit to Ireland: “A new piece was , produced the other we. k at Astlcy’s am phitheaue, called Irish Loyalty, which waa intended to be a grand 'display of ah. die fooleries which took place m D.ibli daring the King’s visit, but as John Bull oad already heard enough of Pr.t’s blarney, he exerted himself to the utmost, and n't terly damned this wretched attempt to give m miniature, a second copy of Irish buffoonery.” niOM THE s y. COMIWEHCIAL Anvr.nTisr.il. I.oxnox, October 10, Union nail—A New Prophet —As soon as the Magistrate hn! token his seat s pei-son of very uncommon appearance was placed by one of the ofll ers at the bar. The o.ncer siatcd that he had found him in the street trie evening b fore, foi. lowed by a mob, who dis u. bed the peace, mil made him liie excus-. for doing so. * The prisoner was a m m of large stature, beyond, tlie middle age, and appeared ah' soibed in his own midit-Hons-is dress consisted of a shirt without any neckcloth a large coat fastened about Ins waist by a leathern belt, a pair of oM Bowsers, but neiUicr shoes nor stockings, mul a long bu by board hung down o his breast. After the officer had stated Lis charge, the following short dialogue took place between the Magistrate and the priso ner : Magistrate.—“ Well, where did you come from V’ —“From America .” Whai part of America?”-—“ Ihe State of Mas sachusetts—it was so called when I left it 4 years ago.” “ What brought you to England”—“The Loidcalledme. ‘‘When did you come ?”—“ On the loth day of March last.” « What-did vou coma for ?” “ I o prophesy.” •• | 0 ' Prophesy f”—. “ Yea.” “i believe We must send you to Rrixtou;We have a propiret there, alrea dy ” •• 1 know nothing of him: I know no thing but Christ, and him crucified.” The prisoner was then desired to withdraw from the, bar, which- he did ; and taking a small bibb ffoiu uoijer hi a coat, appeared to read it witli great as tehfibfi,' regardless of every tiling that was passing around him. He was, ho we verve ry ready to an • - swerany questions that were pus to him I respecting the motives of his conduct ; and to a person who made some inquiries (i- mave the following account of him* aelffi— *~'He had been a farmer in Massachusetts, in good circumstances, and had a family. About f ,ur years ago, the Lord culled him to leave bis house and land, and wife and children, ami follow him Me obeyed the tall, and took no'hing with him, neither putse nor shoes on his L et. He had not since eaten the flesh of any animal, nor drank any strong drink, in which term he included everv liquid except water find milk, nor Ijad he eaten any leavened bread, r. ever received any money, although the brethren had often sought to admin - uter to his necessities, by endeavoring to prevail on him to acce.pl it; but he always refused and never took thought for the morrow. Since he lefihome he travelled through a great part of the United Sbtes, preaching the word to as many as would receive it, and baptizing all those that believed He baptized as John bapti zed, and went down into the water with the disciple. He came to prophesy what he was not yet commissioned to reveal, and was to contin ue in his present body until the second coming of Christ, whom lie was to go to Jerusalem to inert. When the time of that coming was to be, had not yet been revealed to him. In Philad dphia it was revealed to him that he should go to Eng land, and hither became according to tiie revelation. fie accounted for being brought to the office,by saying it was his master’s will, but lie had not offended. He had been praying Hie evening, and on his return the people follow, d him and shouted. They did him no harm ; he made no complaint, and the officer look him and cast him into prison. The Magistrate, as the best mode of providing for the prisoner for the pre sent, mad:- an older to send him to Hr.s ton House of Correction, with directions that he should be kindly treated. GREECE. In speaking of the affairs of Greece, the French papers introduced several let ters from-Leg-torn. They -are dated from September 10 to 22, and say—The spec tacle which Greece at present presents, abandoned as sh* is herself, is truly imposing. She is without armies, with out ammunition and without ships of war. Her soldiers, like .her ancient heroes, are obliged to defend themselves with dubs and slings ; and yet, in this forlorn situs lion, they have twice conquered and de sl rayed two Turkish flotillas, have redvic •d almost all the fortresses of the Arc hi oclago, and the conquered Turks have surrc-ndeicd to the Greeks, armies, which were destined to have be»n employed a ga-nst them A vcs.el from Corfu arriv ed at Leghorn on the 22d, furnishing flu information that in the -Morea' he Giecks have taken Nuvarrin and Comm.

The ■ Ottoman fleet was in me channel oft-co, foi fear of the Greeks, who had a squadron of 50 vessels each ma.imd by about 200 men. Every thing was quiet at Smyrna and Conslantiuoph . RUSSIA AND TURKEY. Although we were lend to believe from the papers we received yesterday, that we shoo'd hear no more of u probability of hostilities on the pan of Russia-; yet it ap peals horn the following article, copied from the C' urier of the Bdi of October, th«t the difficulties are not yet terminat ed. •; Aigshnrg, Sept. 25.—The hope of maintaining peace between the two em pires se.-ms much dimmish, d. At War saw it is believed hosuliiies will immed-- a\ly commence Among the manife d reports that are in circulation on this great question, we observe that one pow er in the south of Europe, whose com meres in the Ottoman dominions is not o uch favored, lias, ni.d, r present circum stances, agreed to follow he tame policy >a the Court of St. Petersburg. Others s. in case oi war, this power will observe lie strictest-neutrality. On the other -.litd it is whispered that an understand og txis's between the Courts of Vie- ua ■ud London as to the most suitable man or of terminating toe affairs of Turkey.

The .lourmil de Perpignan of the 4th slates that a decree of the prefecture of the department for regnWmg the mea sures of precaution necessary to be ob served on the ft-ontiers, «ns published there on the 10th. It is added, that the importation of ever/ kind of merchandise from the peninsula is prohibited, and ex portation is only allowed on one point ami under prescribed forms. The frontier line, which is in almost every part accet. sible, is strictly gua ded. From the accounts received by the post of yesterday it appears that the deaths at Barcclom-tta amount ed o 52 ; and that between the Bih and the IT.hlhe number of new cases was 107. The town of Bar celona itself is the'prey of this scourge, thi" existence of which, some, in spite of ad evidence, attempt to deny.

St me would object toimpriaonme - 1 f - debt, that it is not a natural reme 'v • but tbe truth is, that as far as universal rsan • in every nation and every age will «vinc tion the term, it is so.

In every civilized country, tire comforts of life, become, to a certain ex tent, actual necessities; and habit makes it indispensibl th.ai the people should be supplied in some sort, with thorn. All thin cannot be effected by the barter of one commodity for another ; —nor altogether by money, which is but its substitute.—Of course a credit proportioned to the warn and callings and habits of the different portions of the community must he allow, ed them Now confidence is the very life blood cf credit; and credit again, of com merce : and commerce itself is the parenr of refinement.—And as credit is then a mo ral power exerted for the attainment of au end partly physical, the evils which flow from it must be met by a remedy of a mixed nature. . _ In conclusion, we can see no way to ob viate the necessity of imprisonment foi Debt The nearest approximation towa’ ds it would be to pass an universal Bank; tid Law, and to bang everyone who should either make a fraudulent transf t, or a frau dulent concealment of his property. We would beg leave to recommend t«> the attentive consideration of our readers, such articles as have appeared upon this subject, in the Chronicle, over the signa ture of F.
