trom the Liverpool Mercury, Sept, £B. TURKEY. The Grand Signor has published a ma nifesto which, though it is somewhat cu rious as a 'state paper, is of too great a length, and of too little general interest j,r the columns of our paper. In it he displays in very pompous terms the bless ings enjoyed by the Greeks under the do mirion o the Porte, denouncing their rebellion an ingratitude, but commanding those whom the order is addressed to •uke the utmost care that his peaceable Christian subjects shall not, in any way, be molested. Tne Sultan complains very nann’y of the temerity of these persons v l,„ have already injured the peaceable a,d innocent Greeks in their persons and properties, and threatens the severest punishments, should such outrages again U committed ; but the scenes winch hive stained the streets of Constantino pie and other places, cannot fail to raise ; doubt of the power or the inclination of Porte to fulfil its threats." I ' [From the Times of Tuesday] yie insert under the head of Nurem burg two Turkish Documents, which “ o uSd be of more lively interest had they been accompanied by any proofs or indi- C4 ,i„r, s of the effect produced by them M ,| u . Court to which they were address. ■ 'pbe first is a note to Count Nessel role, of the 18th July, enumerating va rious subjects of complaint against baron Slrogono’ff. The second is dated the 26th if .July, being an answer to a note of StrogonofTs on the 6th, and containing J) te justification of the Porte against the {barges and remonstrances of that Minis t,r with regard to the treatment of the Greeks.

Every nerve was a'ive, every muscle in motion. The Jew was accoutred in flan . nel drawers, white stockings, and shoes i tying high over the instep.

Eniron—l intended to close the scries of essays on this subject with the la:.t number< hut as a proposition is non before the Legislature of Georgia, to al ter the existing law, it may he well to sub join a f w remarks applicable to tins State. The great body of the people of Georgia are Planters.—The property of ■i planter consisting of muds and slaves, is of a kind not readily concealed, and not easily'convertible into cash, except at a sacrifice All their properly is within the reach of an execution—Switch a bill would be no ndvantage to them.

I? his properly to he abandoned to an execution, when th.- law rise If has held out the temptation to his Agent to commit a fraud upon him ? To 'oiivert his property to the Agent’s own ust' and lose i'—to v'a.ite it by Ms extra vagance, mid to get oil unscathed?—l do to mean by this to cast any reflection on .that body of men As far as I know them, they ate as honest, as prudent, and as ho- j orable as any other class of individuals. Hut the best way to k"ep men honest, is to make it their into cut to Ac honest. But it is said that Imprisonment ought only to be inflicted by a Judicial sentence. How .stlie person of <hc debtor to be secured in ma t a judicial determination ? If it is ust, do not hold out a delusive mockery. Lung b< fore a Judicial investigation cun take place, Inc fraudulent debtor will be in Alabama, »n the Red River, or in Ca nada or Mexico If it is, our Insolvent Law renders a Capias nothing else Thir ty d -ys notice is given, and unless the cre liior can prove a fraudulent concealment , f property, the debtor is discharged up on h s ownoalli. But the- creditor ought to make oath of the fraud ? The oath of die creditor would be only prima iacic evidence of the fact. That evidence al ready « xists. It isestablished by a Court •if Law that the dcb'or has received the property of the cn ditor and has not re turned it. It ought to be on mm to ac* count, for it-—T « prove that he has been prevented by unavoidable misfortune from doing that which he was mot ally and h gaily bound to do.
