promenade of pi metrccs, on the banks of
the Rhodius, supp<'Sed to he one of the nine ‘
Homeric rivers w’hic.h descend from Mount i

poorly defended on the land quarter, and i
might easily lx • trprised by a small force;
disembarked above or below. Large I
quantities of marble balls, made from tlia
ruins of the city of the Frond, are piled up j
for use in the courts of the fortress. A ,
ponderous shot of this kind, which struck
one of the masts of Admiral Duckworth’s
ship, was brought homo by that officer, and j
made the pedestal of a table. So firmly !
persuaded are the Turks that these castles
are impregnable, that they believed the
Governor was bribed by Admiral Duck
worth, and beheaded him accordingly.—

Dardanelles tinder cover of the smoke of
a sauhe in February, 1801. This is the
only American ship of war that ever pass

PHILADELPHIA, Sept 13. j
Some mouths since we mentioned that
Robert Owen had published a challenge
to the clergy of N Orleans,to prove against
his arguments the reality of Revelation, the J
advantages of religion, &>c. I his was not,
accepted —but Mr. Campbell of Bethany .
Brook county, Virginia, has, “alter an a
greeahle and desultory conversation on the
oremises with O ven, concluded to accept
the challenge,-and on the second Monday
in April next : they are to meet in some
large and commodious building in Cincin
nati. Mr. Owens voyage to England pre
cludes an earlier meeting. Mr. Camp
bell invites the attendance of a good steno
grapher to the discussion. lie says that Mr
Owens ago, his long acquaintance vtith the
arguments in favor of his theory, would |
load him to.fear the results did he not feel
full assurance in the invincible, irrelYag
ble and triumphant evidences of the reli
gion he professes.”
The President of .he United States re
turned to the seat of Government on Satur
day last. We aie glad to learn that his
health has been improved bv his journey
and short relaxation from public business.
“And honor comes a pilgrim grey,
To deck the lurf that wraps their clay.’
Few nations Insides this, have the envi
able privilege of containing and numbering
among their children the founders of their
govern nent, and the achievers of their in
dependence. We can yet behold some of
those brave spirits who engaged in The per
ilous defence of our liberties, and who were
ready to sink or swim, live or die, survive
or perish in the contest. They exist, glo
rious relicts of the olden time-worn, aged
and honored. Millions hail them as fathers
and preservers, and a grateful people regald
‘hem with affection and reverence. Time
in his destructive course, as he moves them
one by one from amongst us, only height
ens our attachment lor those who remain—
“like the prophetic books of the Sybil, in
creating iu value as they dimmish in num
ber,” Rome, in her most virtuous days,
boasted not of such menus these. No hard
ships, no distress, could drive them from
their duty ; and now, when they have com
pleted the work, and the heavy hand of
poverty presses upon some of them, and a
calculating policy depiives them of their
rights and dues —they remain still friends
!o the country —Americans in heart tmd
principle. The grave is fast cLsiug over
them : wo will soon see the lasi of a noble
race. I.nost even newspaper tint we o
pen contains ilie death of some hero of our
independence, ll is honourable to the char
acter of our countrymen that the greaiest
respect is shewn them, and their memories
fondly cherished in the hearts of their neigh
bors. A few years hence, and all that can
be said will be, there sleeps the last of rite
soldiers of the Revolution. — Alet. Gaz.
From the Courier Francaisprinted at Furls.
To America alone belongs the honor of
hav tng given a rival to Sir Walter !*cott.—
Not less fiuitful, not les* original, than tlie
Scottish Romancer, Mr. Cooper has found
mtxh.iustalde resources iu the admirable
scene v of the United States, and in the
contrast between the manners of the Amer
ican Savages with those of the European
Colonies to compose descriptions as pictu
resque as those of old Caledonia,and scenes
not less dramatic than the events hot rowed
by Sir Walter from the middle age,and the
traditions of the mountains. A beautiful e
dition has lately been published in Paris,
comprising all his works, in 13 volumes,or
namented with engravings by the first ar

conforinity w r ith a late act of the General
bly :
All the town lots not heretofore dispose 5
being upwards of one hundred in number; on ■,s
western side ol the river : among them arc twel
adjoining the river, and a few other choice lots foi
business. The residue are in more retired situa
tions, and generally afford good building sites in a
pleasant and growing part of the town.
Forty-two gardening lots of 10 and 20 acres
each ; laid out from J to 1 1-2 miles distant from 1
the town in two ranges around the Western Com
mon. Also, twenty eight lots on the Eastern side:
that is to say, 4 of twenty, 8 often acres, and 10 of:
one acre inch These last include the place some- |
times knoin as Newtown; and will be sold, sub- ]
ject to certain leases from the United States, to
expire next January.
The residue of the lands in the two reserves,
are laid out in tracts of 100 acres, and fractional
parts of such tracts. Os these, the uplands will
be next offered; the Inst numbers first; beginning .
with those on the western side.
On Wednesday the22d of October next, at 11 ’
o'clock A. M. will be offered at the place of the <

BRIDGE AT MACON ,
Together with one acre of land on the eastern side
of the Oemulgee river, as one of'thr hutments;
and the privilege of using so much of Fifth or

the Reserves, those on the Western side first; and

The particular numbers that will be sold on each
day cannot be specified ; but it is intended to put up
the several kinds and descriptions in the order here
mentioned.
The Reserves are generally well watered and
contain several good mill seats The area of the
whole cannot be exactly known until the platting
is completed ; but twenty-one thousand acres is
the estimated quantity contained in both Reserves
and the adjoining fractions, exclusive of the town
surveys. Perhaps no body of land of the same
extent can be found that embraces a greater va
riety in its surface, soil and timber. Situated just
in that region where the pine of the lower country
changes to the oak and hickory of the upper • it
includes both these growths, and soils in most of
their varieties; in some portions entire, in others
interspersed or blended. Tracts of very hilly land,
or that which is quite level, or gently undulating,
r:ssy he 1 tact of almost every quality ; eilher of ofk
and hickory, or pine, or river lands ; and several
of these kinds occasionally united ; in tracts of

stitutions, and to preserve And sanctify tli . s- 7’u?
of virtue and morality which give promise > f iu
ture increase and prosperity our country
every liberal and dispassionate riiiAd must be iuily
convinced.
It has been the subject of general reprehension*
that too many papers in tiiL country have ?part
jed from this correct and onward course—r. id mat
J still more have sprung with mushroom precocity
i from the hotbed of Party Spirit.
To counteract the baneful influence such
papers inevitably have, upon the uu ■ \U of the
community ; —to send all public transactions, in
stantly before a jury of the tvhoie countr-i, . -
out any rfoj hist to darken them, or any .1
pleader to bend them to a side—and t > strei . . n
( and uphold, as far as in us Les, the cause of Yc
Liberty ana Truth will be the devoted uim of mo
proprietors of The Herald.
It is well known that a paper established r . :v
the above liberal principles, is demanded by ho
intelhgenoe and independen aoi the p y if*
of this place—and w -!qy our-elves, that at
the same time wa exercise the most courteous
demeanour to ah parties; that i'he Herald
shall be strictly coi.f ‘mtd to the plan above held
out.
Addicted tollie interests or prejudices of no seC
of uien, uritraiiuiu ed, fearless and free, it will:
give expression to the y h ic voice, —intimidated*
by no man’s hatred aud lured by no man’s favor.
In Ihe particular arrangement of its contents,
greater attention t > system will beob&erved than
.■> usually found in -weekly papers—lts fund of
Miscellaneous information s iii be repieti with
variety, and ‘he quality of s . !i articles shall be
more regaided than the quauiif.
