London, April 10.—It is said to have been deter

road from Amsterdam a ml Rotterdam to Cologne,
in order to reuder useless the Belgian project of
making one from Antwerp to Cologne, or at least
to ensure every practicable advantage to the
Dutch Commercial cities.
Paris, April 9,—The reports of an attack made
on the part of the Dutch army, which had the ef
fect of lowering thefuuds, were founded, it is said,
on a letter from M. Ouvard, copies of which were
hawked about Paris. It is kuown that M. Ou-

The Bank of Englaud is tho largest monied

Praying Machine.—Tiie Kiirdu, of prayer ma
chine, is peculiar to the Buddhists. It consists of
hollow wondeu cylinders, of different sizes, filled
with tiie Tangud writings. Tho cylinders are
painted with red stripes, and adorned with hand
some gilt letters, iu the Sanscrit character; eaclt
of these is fixed upon an iron axis, which goes
through n square frame; this frame is capable of
being slmt up fiat, and is funned upon a small
scale, much like a weaver’s shearing machine.
Where the lower parts of the frame cross, - titere
is a hole, in which tho axis of the cylinder turns;
by means of astriug, which is attached to a crank
iit tiie spindle, tiie machine can he kept in motion,
so that the cylinder -turns in the frame like a
grindstone, (only upright) upon its axis. At Sa-
repta, we had two large ktirdus of this kind, with
Tangud writings of uf! soils, rolled one upon n-
nothcr round tiie spindle, in the inside of tile cyl
inder, to the length, altogether, of soms hundred
feet. These praver mills perform a much more
important office titan a rosary, which only serves
to assist the person who prays. Tho Monguls
believe that is meritorious respectfully to set iu
motion, whether by wind or otherwise, such wri
tings as contain prayers, aud other religious do
cuments, that the noise of these scraps of theolo
gy may reach to the gods, mid bring down their
blessing, As these prayer machines usually con
tain the Tangud formula, which is serviceable to
all living creatures, (repeated, it may lie ten thou
sand tinlcs, so that’ there is a multiplication of
power like that iu tile English machines, equiva
lent to til .- labor uf so many individuals) as pray
er can in this tnauner be can icd on like a whole-
ale manufactory, it is not very surprising that
prayer mills arc so commonly to lie found in the
imuscs of Monguls. An iiiKcnious contrivance

amine the evidence on which it is fouuded. If it
is truo that a majority of tiie people of this State
are ready to lift their heads against the constitu
tion, and to dissolve the bond tiiat makes the
twenty-four States an individual nation, tiie pub
lic should he no longer ignorant of it.—But if on
the contrary, a vast majority of our citizens nro
devoted to the I'uion,—if, inheriting tiie princi
ples of their lathers, they ore ready to reueyv the
pledge of their lives, their fortuile aud their sa
cred honor to its maintenance aud protection, it
.is time their reputation should he vindicated, and
the public disabused of the charges that are ush
ered forth to thcxvorld so much to their prejudice.
*VVhat then is the proof ou which nullifiers rely to
justify them iu the declaration that “Alabama is
thoroughly with tlie.ni in sentiment and feeling”?
Is it to be foimd iti tiie ioudUtt of our public men,
iu the acts of llic Legislature—iu tiie character of
the public press, or iu the preference manifested
by the people for the advocate of these doctrines]
in regard to the delegation of this State iu Con
gress, it is notorious that hut one of tlicr number
tvas ever even suspected of a partiality for these
doctrines, and as for the others, if their votes and
expressed opinions on nil proper nccasiuus in di-.
rect opposition, to the South Carolina creed, af
ford any indication of their views! the claim of their
devotion to the cause of the nullifiers is the height
of presumption mid folly.—As well indeed might
they lay claim to Mr. Webster or to General Jack-
son himself, as to Col, King, Mardis, or Mr.
Clan.
Tho overwhelming vote of our State Legisla
ture nt its late sessiou, ou the resolution approba
ting the scutimeuts expressed by General Jackson
in his letter to the lluioh party of South Carolina,
iu Juuo last, declaring that so far ns it depended
pn him, the laws of Congress should bo executed
at all hazards, triumphantly vindicates that body
from the imputation attempted to ho east upon it;
and as it regards the public press, there are fifteen
papers published iit this Slate, aud .but mingle
one of them is tile advocate of uUllificatiou.
From whence then is tho evidence derived that
Alabama is devoted to tho South Carolina doc
trines? It exists only in the diseased imagina
tions, or tho presumptuous arrogance of the lead
ing nullifiers of tiiat State, mid has not a shadow
of truth for its support., Thfcffl .is indeed n littlo
knot of politicians iu one corner of the State,
who have been exceedingly noisy on tho subject,
biit neither their numbers or their iuflueneo aro
sufficient to amouut to nil exception. It it ex
ceedingly doubtful whether they have a majority
in criy one, of the two or three counties embrac-

Dreadful Hurricane in India—Extract from a
f irivate letter, dated Nov. 10, from the neighbor-
lood of Bnlasorc:—“I can think of nothing but
the hurricane which occurred here on the last day
of October; such a calamity l have never hoard
or read of; at least 10,000 persons in my jurisdic
tion were drowned, aud I fear the accounts will
show double that number, including children.
The high road froth Madras to Calcutta runs
through Balasord; about Six miles north of this,
and wher* it Is in a direct Hue nine miles from tit
coast, th. sea crossed it, carrying with it every
living thing in that space, ih that direction, At
least 150 square niilcs were inundated from 10 to

The sea came up to Balasdre, and to the north

deck and part of a Vessel are on the road. Where

HINDOO IDOLATRY.
We infer from several publications which liavo
recently met our eyes, and particularly from some
of tlte "Calcutta papers, that the foundations of
the long cherished system of idolatory in ludia
are hegiuning to shake, to an oxtent which they
have never doue before. Ail active controversy
has-been going on for some time past in Calcutta
on the subject of Heathen rites and dogmas, not
between missionaries and Hindoos, nor between
Europeans and Hindoos, but between Hindoos and
Hindoos. And as in most other controversies,
light as xvell as heat is elicited. One of the par
ties call themselves Liberals or Reformers; the
others arc denominated Bigots. Doth profess to
uphold tho Hindoo religion; but the former do it
heartlessly, with many reservations and deduc
tions, while the latter go for the whole, no matter
how absurd aud abominable. Amidst tho con-
llicl of opiuion, the Liberals have found them
selves distanced hy a bolder reformer, a hardier
Joint Knox than any of them, who to uncommon
energy of character, adds also great learning, and
occupies a station of extensive influence. We
refer not to Ramtnolum Roy, hut to the editor of
tho Calcutta Expositor. By hisfonrlcss exposure
of tiie tricks of the Braliiniiis, lie not long since,

Ilcggiagcs,'on Arab general unde? the Caliph
Valid, consulted, in his late illness, an aslrologur,
who predicted to him his approaching death. "I
rely so completely on your knowledge,” replied
lieggiages to him, “that I wish to have you with

you thither before nte, iu order that I may be able

A persou endeavored to prove to Dr. Johnson,

outrage, from the effects of which ho was reliev
ed by two “friends and tv arm advocates lor truth,”
who at once supplied him with n commodious
dwelling, lie still perseveres in his giuiit assaults
upon tho system so sacred by the veneration of
ages, and having no stronger term of reproach to
apply to his persecutors, lie says “they were born
Bengalees, aud they are still in that spirit,” As
n specimen of the plain language rnadd use of in
this controversy, welpiolc tho following passage
from a coiiimuuicatiou in the ludia Gazette,sign
ed hy a person calling himself Madult Chundcr
Mutliek, who says, “If there be any tiling under
heaven that cither I Or my friends look upon with
the most abhorrence, it is lliuilooistui If there bo
ally thing we regard as the best instrument of c-

hold as tlfe greatest promoter of vice it is Ilitidoo-
ism. Aud if there he mjy thing wo consider to
be the most hurtful to tho peace., comfort and hap
piness of society, it is llmdooism." This, lie it
remembered, is the language of a,native liindos-
tnm of a man who probably would uot call him
self a Christian, but who ‘nevertheless has too
much seme or self-respect to ndhere atiy longer
to the bloody rites or Irihtlicnism,. Alluding to
tho facts above mctifioned, aud others of a kin

NULLIFICATION IN ALABAMA.
Several of the Free Trado papers of South Ca
rolina for a number of. months past have been
throwing out intimations that Alabama was dis
posed to take part with them iu their noble scheme
of nullifying the laws of the l T tiion: and a late
Charleston Mercury iu dilating on its favorite to

“Alabama and Mississippi nre thoroughly with
us in sentiment nnd feelieg: Nor will Georgia de
sort us, if ever she should bo called onto decide as
to the right of tho Federal Government to con
trol a State. And this is enough. Let South
Carolina nullify. The government knows full
well that she conuot he .ooerced: that every abti-
tariff State will sustain tier in that attitude: and
that the first gun fired would sound tho funeral

people of this State, are devoted to their country
and its institutions, from a deep nnd abiding scuso
of their inestimable value. They consider tho
Union as the rock of their safety, nnd if South-
Carolina is mad enough to attempt the work of
nullification, she will derive no aid, countenance,
or support, from a people too happy, too prospe

tho Constitution of the States.—Mobile Commer

REMI.NISCENT1AL.
From the Augusta Chronicle, May, 1830.
Ootcmor Troup.—It has frequently been ask
ed, why Gov. 'Troup lias bccu a mere sitting
member in tho Senate!—why always silont when
so many important questions have bceu discussed,
nod when so much has hern expected from him?
Some have surmised that he is prudently cauti
ous of his high reputation, where he can, at best,
bo but one of many, and others that “his argu
ment is exhausted." It would appear, however,
from an extract of a letter published iu the Athe
nian, that neither of these is tho case. The wri- -
tor says: “Weakness Of the breast and luugs cn-.
tircly 'prevents Gov. Troup from public speaking.
Every body however knpws where to fiud Troup,’
Ho will stand to his arms." So it seems that?
thougli his argument is not exhausted, as hi*
means of expressing it nre, the effect must needs
bo the same. He lias been standing by his arms,
for a long time now, and trr hope lie mat) conti
nue so to do till they rust, b.fore he ii put lo the
unpleasant necessity of using them.
From the Augusta Chronicle, ‘Ottobcr, 1830.
nullification! “Free Port," fyc.—A writer in
the last Georgia Journal, cbticludcs an address to'
tho members of the Legislature, ns follows: .
“In the hope that all courage has not departed.
this laud, I propose tho adopttob of tho following
measures: ’ “ V f
“1st. Pass an actiwhich will deprive of the
protection of our laws, the President, Directors,
Cashiers, and other officer* of tjie Bank of the
United States. This wjll deprive them of all hone
of deriving advantage from, n renewal of tho
charter, mid stop their opposition to Jackson.
“fid. Pass a law which will tlepflvo the rrvr-
ntio officer* «f the protection of our laws. Tin's
will drive, them from our State; Savannah will 1
bcco’mo a free port,' and unless the other State*
follow our cxitnqdo, the foreign trade which now.
visits Now York, Boston, aud Philadelphia, will,
se*k our ports;
“D* these tilings now; nobr is the accented ’
ime; If we do it now, while tho federal adminis- -
tratiuu is fricudly to us, it *vill by nil be-attriliut- '
ed to n determination to maintain our'rights a-
gainst nTI administration*.' If we delay it, until
tho United State*’ Bank influence, Tariff ililtu-,
cnee and Internal Improvement influence, shall
have placed Ilcury Clay in the Presidential chair;
e attributed to a faction*
ilcury Clgy i
aud therf do,it, it tvifl he
opposition to an administration uot of ouretioiec,
nml a dissolution of the Uniou and civil war will
hardly be averted." •'
Now what is all this iiut tho worst kiiid of Nul-
lification—an abolition of regularly constituted'
Federal authority, which must inevitably lend to
Disunion. The writer talk* about "courage" ns
though there wore nny real courage to iton des
perately nnd uselessly ou the month of an ex
ploding enunon, or to blow ont his own brains
with a pistol, while another would cal! it mad
ness. Tho Legislature of Georgia, it i- hoped,
K ossesses too much sound sense nml discretion to
e deluded hy these “nullification” and ‘fnc
port" doctrine*, after tljey have been so effectu
ally nullified in Carolina.' ' V ’’
[But in April 1832, this same Juga.-.ta Chrnni- .
tic pronounce* "nullification," “t\!m h mest ine
vitably lead to tRsumon," the rock of cur coun
tries saltation! So much for political consUtqg-
cy ami tins immutability of opinion.]
Value of the Union.—'Tho fidlowing passage*
in the speech of Mr. Tyler of Virginia, on Mr.
Clay’s resolution on the Tariff, beautifully end
forcibly illustrate the volucot the Union:
“I have been reared in a reverential affection'
for the Union. My imagination has led me to
look into the distant future, nnd there to contem
plate the rreatuess of free America. , , ''
