Accordingly, at the title appointed, the . r ; o c ah collected at their usual ren- two of the mem hers hastily enter ed with some degree of consternation de- B ; c tpd in their faces, one of whom address ed the Captain. “ Sir, thero is a com’ pany of armed men eollactiiig at Colonel f lorehouse’s.

This suspense, however, was not *f long duration ; for the challenge of “ stand ! surrender l* soon sa luted the ears of the whole party, and threw them into a st ate of consternation, dismay, and confusion, which it would be difficult, if not i.npoM iible to describe. Some sprang from the windows, and attempted to con ceal themsehres by plunging into snow banks; others ran to the top of the building, and secreted themselves under the eves of the roof. ‘Crosby retreated to an adjoining room, and crept under a bed; but was soon dragged 03 t, when he learned to his secret joy, that st arcelv one of the party had suc ceeded in or,king good his escape.

Brunswick, Me. July 23. A young lady by the name of Sampson, was buried in Greece on Saturday last, whose death was caused as follows. In company with another female, she had re tired a distance from their dwelling to es cape danger from the blasting of some rocks near the house* As they were seated, ap parently in a safe retreat, a fragment of the blasted rock, weighing about 12 oz. des cending from a considerable height frac tured her skull, and caused her death in 12 days. Balloon Ascent. —Mr Green fully re deemed his credit on Thursday, by a fine ascent from the Bonhay, at the western extremity of this city. The balloon was filled in a yard behind the Gas-works, and about half past four was removed from thence to the Bonhay, in order to avoid in terruption from the adjacent houses. About this time, there was a iieavy fall of rain, but the atmosphere soon cleared. The car was then attached, and Mi. Green having taken his seat, was presented with flags by Mrs. Measor, and Col. Ross of the 4th Dragoon Guards. A gentleman on the ground, Mr. George White, was very anxious to join Mr. Green in the voyage, and seated him self in tne car for the purpose ; but the gas was not sufficiently buoyant to convey two, and he wais reluctantly compelled to relin quish his seat. At a quarter before 5, the ropes which confined it were loosened, and the balloon rose majestically, amidst the cheers of a numerous concourse of specta tors It took a south easterly direction, and soon attained an elevation of about a a mile and a quarter, but continued insight until Mr. Green effected his descent, about five o clock, at Coombe Park farm, be tween Woodbury and Honiton, about ten miles from Exeter At first he got entan gled in a tree and threw out his grappling iron, which unfortunately broke, but extri cating himself from this premature resting place, he alighted in a field, where the bal loon di ifted a considerable distance; luckily two men, who were at work in an adjoining field, ran to his assistance, and secured the balloon. As soon as the balloon ascended, Mrs Green set off in a chaise and four, and joined her husband at the Globe Inn, Woodbury, about an houi after he had reached that place. Mr Green returned to Exeter at eight, amidst the cheers and con gratulations of an immense crowd. Mr Green has been requested to make another aerial voyage on the 18th of June, the anni versary of the battle of Waterloo ; but he has not yet decided on accepting the pro position. Eider (Eng,) Gazette. The Philosopher's Stone. —The follow ing curious circumstance occurred a little time since at Tottenham:—A person who had misspent his time in search of the phi losopher’s stone having left his laboratory open, his servant-maid took the opportu nity to attempt discovering the object of her master’s study. Her attention was en gaged by the furnanee, in which were se veral substances. Her curiosity induced her to stir and try to bring out the materi als with a very large spoon, which was al ways used at dinner. To her confusion ant! surprise it melted and fell to the bot tom. Terrified by the.circumstance she flew from the room. Her master soon re turned, and, on extinguishing his chemical fire, was delighted to find a mass of puro silver in his furnace. Now he imagined he was successful in the great object of his past life, and that he should soon realize a fortune by converting the baser into pure metal; ard, on the strength of this idea, he invited a large party to dine with him the next day, for the purpose of communica ting his good fortune. He did not sleep all that night for joy. The next day he saw his table decked with the most costly viands. His congratulated him on every side. In the midst of this triumph ; ho missed the large silver spoon, and asked where it was. The servant now confessed she had been induced to try to extract the materials from the furnace with it, and that it bad melted her hand. The poor philosopher turned pale ; the harmony of the day was disturbed; his friends retrea ted, and he still lies in a disconsolate state. Eng. Paper.

Extract from the Minutes, DANIEL BAKER, Acting Rec. Secretary. NOTICE. LTTERARY PREMIUM. lt The lands in question belong to Georgia, she must and she will have them.” [Report in senate Dflc. 5, 1827.] Convinced that the claim adva need on behalf of the State to the country ir habited by the Creek Indians, has no foundation in justice; strongly impressed with the opinion that the completion of the views of tho *3 politicians who advance it, will justly entail /upon Georgia the odious charges of being faithless; covetous; un grateful; and inhuman. / Faithless —Because we hjve treaties with the Cherokees defining tho present boundary; up to which boundary we have full and undisputed pos session. Covetous —Because or j present territory, near ly fifty thousandjjsquare miles, is out of all propor tion large for our popr >ition—so that for centu ries to come it will nc,t be properly cultivated. Ungrateful —Beca use upon a late emergency, a number of the a warriors of that Nation drew their swords in our behalf with conspicuous ser vice. Inhuman —l o’ight to say Barbarous —because in modern time j —in civilized countries—there is no instance of expelling the members of a whole nation from t’jeir homes—of driving an entire po pulation froi a its native country. The notoriously disgraceful partition of Poland involved no such stigma of oruelty.) Convinced, also, that if the territory could now be received with honor, it would be impolitic to receive ;t—our true policy being to hold the Uni ted St-ites bound to us for the equivalent of its value at a distant period— Believing likewise that the people of this State, if made properly acquainted with the subject, are too religious, too honest, too honorable, to sanc tion claims so irreligious, so dishonest, so dishon orable—and which, if enforced, will result in such deep disgrace to themselves—such enduring shame to their posterity—under these convictions* and in this belief, I intend to offer a Memorial to the next General Assembly ; and desiring that this Memo rial may illustrate and enforce these views with ability and energy, I hereby offer A Premium of One Hundred Dollars, for that production, which in respectful language, shall, in my opinion, most perfectly accomplish that purpose. The manuscript written in a legible hand, to be left at my counting-room, or forwarded to me here, free of expense, before the 10th day of No vember next. R. CAMPBELL. Savannah, August 14, 1328. BOARD OiFTIKALTH. _ Sexton's Report of Interments of Persons who have died in the City, for the week ending 12 th August Died of , 1 aged 37 years* “ Intermittent Fever, 1 “ 68 “ “ Worm Fever, 1 “ 11 u * At the Jail, supposed of fits. Notwithstanding the great degree of health en joyed by the citizens at the present time, and the statements of this Board to that effect, which have been published, it is with surprise and regret that the Board of Health perceives that attempts are making abroad by the circulation of rumora to produce different impressions. In the Charles ton Courier, of tho 11th instant, a report is men tioned that the Charbon, a kind of plague, had al ready reached this city from New Orleans. This Board deem it due to the character of the city, as w r ell as to the feelings of our citizens who are ab sent, to say, that there is no truth whatever in the report; and that the pity is as free from dis ease of any kind, as at the most healthy periods of the year, ©r as it ever has been.
