SATURDAY MORNtNG 4 APRIL 4, IS'29. *~~\Vhen Adams the elder, was president of the fT n i:ed Stales, it was objected, that he wa3 too fond of cnrrgetic mean res; that he was in favor of a standing army, a navy, and that these, and the influences arising from them, were dangerous to f the freedom of the country. It was said that the administration of a philosopher would be mudi more consonant with the spirit of oui institutions. Yet when Adams the younger, came into tho same office, who was not only a philosopher but a practical statesman, it was again objected by the same individuals, that he was too much a man of theory, of genius; too learned, too philosophic , for a president; that the country needed the admin istration of a practical man, a plain farmer, a man who would take a plain, unsophisticated view of affairs, and correct and reform abuses. The objection had its influence with the peo ple, and a change was effected. It may now bo fairly tested, whether the change of 1801 from an administration of too much energy, to a philo sophic one—was wrong —and the change back a g a jn—from the philosoper, to the man of action— is right. We hope the issue will not disappoint our best wishes. But this much we must needs say; during the latter years of the reign of philo sophy and reason, our country has enjoyed unex ampled prosperity; our internal resources have been extensively developed; our foreign com merce has been extended; and the wealth and population of our country have rapidly increased; we have maintained peace with all nations, and at tho sain* time, caused our power and rights to be respected. May we be enabled to say the same thing at the end of the next administration. Avery general feeling seems to prevail among those whom we h..ve heard converse upon the subject, in regrrd to the contemplated improve ments in Johnson’s square. The erection of the monument, so classic and beautiful as that pro posed by the committee, will necessarily embody many interesting recollections in that vicinity; and the rumbling of drays around its base, which the open passage through the square would inevi tably subject it to; the congregation of negroes which a pump would collect, would to us seem like a sort of profanation. Were the whole square enclosed: planted with shrubery. embellished with flowers and gravel walks, how much would it add to the beauty of our city! It would form a de lightful promenade, surpassing any thing of the •kind in the United States It would be as much superior to the famous Park of New York,or tho Mall of Boston, as the Orange and Myrtle groves of the South, surpass the Beach and Poplar forests of the North. In our rich and mellow moon-lit evenings, it would ailcrd a mt and appropri ate resort; where the beauty and fashion of our city, instoad of remaining cooped up in the draw ing room, the prey of ennui and moschctoes, might assemble and taste the pure breath of Heaven* and gather fresh roses for their checks, from the glow of delightful exercise. Mr. Clay a candidate for Congress. —The Re publican Ledger announces that the Hon. James Clark declines standing a poll for re-clection to Congress, from tho district im Kentucky which formerly sent the Hon. Henry Clay, and Mr. Clay is spoken of as a candidate to succeed him. Mrs. Lydia R. Bailey has been apponted by the Collector of the Customs at Philadelphia, to bo F*int'r and Stationer to the Custom House, vice John Binns, removed. Capt. Reed and his seamen, of the ship Tran sit, of Boston, have been committed to prison, by the aulorities at Campeachy, for the crime, of hav ing brought to that place a package of letters’ suspected to treat on political subjects. The ship in the mean time has been plundered of every thing moveable, the vessel injured by lying exposed to a hot sun, and the voyage ruined.— She lias been abandoned to the undrvvriters Fashion —A wirter in the Nantucket Inquire;, recommends among other abominable fashions, that boots and shoes be made like gloves, with toes to them. On Wednesday last a rumor was currently cir culated in this city that a number of promisory notes, with forged signatures or endorsements, had been discovered in several Banks where they had been discounted; this rumor was connected with the report, that Charles F. Myers, for whose use several of the detected notes had been dis counted, had suddenly letl his home without lea ving any explanation as to the object of his jour ney. It was ascertained, however, that he bad proceeded eastward in the steam boat, and at the instance of some persons, interested, or whose naume had been improperly used, lie was pursued, hnt it appears not overtaken. Mr. Myers volun tarily returned to the city, and was arrested yes terday evening in the street by George S. Wim inell and Levi Gristwotd, two of our vigilant po lice officers, and taken before Wm. A Shaffer, Esq.—after an examination, which continued to a )ate, or rather an early hour, he was omitted for lurther examination. Mr. Myers was an appar ently wealthy tanner, who had resided several years in the city, r nd sustained a respectable char acter. It is due to him as to all other similarly situated, to refrain from any comment on the above statement, until he shall have had an im partial trial before the proper tribunal Balti more Gazette. Treaty between the United S ta'es and Brazil. —The United States Telegraph of the 20ih iast. contains an official copy of the “treaty of peace, friendship, commerce and navigation,” between the United States and Brazil, as ratified on the 18th of the same, by President Jackson. This docu ment differs in very few particulars from our treaty with the republic of Colombia, and is, indeed, almost a literal copy of thm instrument; s that those who are familiar with the stipulations of the latter, will be gratified to learn that most of the essential principles of martime law, for which our * government has uniformly contended, in nil its diplomatic discussions withbellige* rent powers, from the administration of <y*aeral Washington down to the present and iy, have been acceded to, by the Brazilian government. By this convention, it is agreed between the contracting parlies, that, if either of them be at war and the other neutral, the flag of the neutral shall csver the property of the enemy, if he ad- j mil iliis principle, that a blockade, to be valid must be sustained “by a A>rce capa ble of preventing the entry of the neutral; ’ and that a vessel shall not be liable to cap ture for attempting to enter * blockaded port, “unless after warning of sut^l block ade from any officer commanding a vessel of the blockading forces, she shall again attempt to enter/’ In regard to our commercial intercourse the principle of reciprocity h thoroughly adopted. Ail discriminating duties upon merchandise and tonnage are abolished,( and the ships and products f each nation are admitted into the pons of each upon the same footing. Tire treaty is to be in force for 12 years from the 12 ot Dec. 1828 tbe date of its signing, and further, tim’d either of the contracting parties slidll give one year’s notice of its wish to annul it. The stipulations, however, ‘-which relate to peace and friendship shall be permanent!) and perpetually binding on both powers. * The most important points in which this treaty differs from that of Colombia, are the following: First. ‘Fhe United States consent, that Brazil may place Portugal on a better foot ing than other nations. Secondly. In the ti*ity with Colombia, in the article which stipulates for the mu tual administration to the citizens of both ] the contracting parties “Such citizens or j agents shall have free opportunity t.ybe | present at the decisions and sentences of; the tribunals, in all cases which may con-j corn them, and likewise at the taking of all examinations and evidence which may be exhibited in the said trials.” Thi< provis ions is omitted in the treaty with Brazil Thirdly. In the treaty with Brazil, there is att admission of a doctrine relative to blockades, which is not to be found in the treaty with Colombia. It is contained in the following words—“and if any vessel having thus entered the port before tbe blockade took place, shall take on board a cargo after the blockade be established, she shall be subject to being warned by the blockading forces to return to tho port blockaded, and discharge the said cargo; and if after receiving the said warning the vessel snail persist in going out \vifli the cargo she shall be liable to the same con sequences as a vessel attempting to enter a blockaded port, after being warned! off by the blockading forces.”— Philadelphia Gazette From tko Providence American. The Elvira —We are rejoiced to see that iliis unfortunate vessel ins been spo- Ken and probably arrived s fe in port. — On her passage from St Augustine to Nor folk, she was capsized while lying to in a gale. Her cargo consisted of Navy tim ber, whose specific, gravidity is heavier than the water, and her sinking seemed inevita ble. Thirteen Souls were in the cabin when she went over. With great difficulty they extricated themselves by kicking out the grating of the companion. Iu this di lemma no axe was to be found to cut a • way the mast. Au intrepid ship carpenter on hoard, found his way through the wa ter in the hold to the forecastle, and brought up a broad axe which would not have • been exchanged for 50 such gold axes as ■ Mercury produced for the wood cutler in i the fable. With this the mainmast was cut away, after which the vessel righted, and she was relieved from most of the water ! bv bailing, the pumps having been broken. The gale continuing the foremast was rolled away, ripping up the deck. One of the anchors had been forced from the bow, and hung to a chain cable which caught in the hawsehole, endangering the bottom of the vessel at every plunge. The old nxe again came in play, with which the mate cut off the chain cable and dropped the anchor, ! after two hours labour. This same mate | was a resolute fellow and stood lashed to i the helm for 36 hours in the worst of the gale. General Jackson ought to make him a midshipman. During the gale one of the s-amen was washed overboard and lost | The passengers and crew, 15 in number, remained 21 days on the wreck, on short allowance, f n the mean time they passed 14 vessels, near enough to relieve them, and several, who, like the Lovite, passed by—a melancholy instance of man’s : humanity to man. On the 11th March, the Milo, Glover, being commanded by a man having a soul, fell in with the wreck. She remained by them all night. The next morning, two of the passengers, Lukv Drury, Esq. of Bris tol, R. 1. and \V M. Allen, Esq. of August -1 tine, with the ca.pt. and some of the crew, succeeded with great difficulty in hoarding the Milo, which could not send her own boat The capt. and ctew returned to the Elvira some water and provisions, intend ing to take out more of the passengers, but the gale increasing none would venture ex* cept two of the passengers who barely [cached the Milo with their lives. The rest of the company were left on board the Elvira and it being impossible to take them off, and'though they had a jury mast, there were some prospects of their reaching port, their situation was precarious On the 17ih the wreck of the Elvira, was spoken about 20 miles East of Sandy Hook, and the pilot Boat T. H. Smith, stood off for her on Fri day last, to tow her in. Could Congress do a better deed than to give a bounty for every person taken from the wreck of an Am. vessel/ Evem.sailors ! want some stimulus to humanity. S2Q a head for affording relief, would save the j life of many a poor shipwrecked American sailors. Police Office. —Disgraceful Conduct. — On Sunday morning about 4 o’clock, two well dressed men who gave their names Jacob. Smith and Obed Cary, were caught by the watch taking up the grates along the si‘ ! e of Fulton street and throwing them in to the gutters. ‘t hey were in a state of intoxication, and said they were going down to Holt’s to sleep. They were committed for the misdemeanor, and held to bail to appear at the court of sessions. This is an offence of a very serious] nature, as accidents are continually occurring in consequence (ty the street grates being loosened or removed i and we are informed that the magistrates have determinated to commit any person found perpetrating the offence. Turn out among the marble cutters Se veral individuals were examined this morn ing in relation to u movement among the journeymen marble cullers with the view ot raising their wages. It appeared that dit ferent gangs of about thirty men each, went about to the various shops in Greenwich street and its vicinity, threatening those journeymen who still continued to work with violence and death it they did not de sist from work. One man was pulled out of Lis bed with violent threats on Saturday night, and he was in great apprehension that his life would be taken if he did not acquiesce in the requisition of the.rioters. Warrants have been issued against several individuals who are known to have been en 2aeJ in these transactions. N. Y. Ev. Post. The Ganges. —Only that portion of the Ganges that lies in the most direct line from Gangoutri and Hundoolee, in the snowy mountains of Himalaya, down to Saugus Island, is considered holy by the brahmirri cal Hindoos. The Hoogly, therefore is supersiitiuusly revered as being an impor j taut branch of ihe true Ganges, which is ! worshipped as a goddess. A pilgrimage to Gangoutri, (where the river issues into ■ day from under a mound of frozen snow, about three hundred feet high, and at the height <>f more than 10 thousand leet above the level of the sea,) is supposed to carry the pilgrim happily through all the stages of transmigration in a future world and preserve him from many troubles in the present state! The water they esteem so pure that they say it will neither evaporate nor become corrupt by being kept or trans ported! For ifs medical qualities also, the Ganges is most extravagantly revered, and on this account is drunk even by many Mahometans as well as Hindoos. In 1/92 Abdul Hakeem, the nabob of Shahuoor, near the west coast of India, and above a thousand miles travelling distance, although a Mahometan, never diatd; any thing else! —Accounts from Serampoie. A few years previous to the French re volution, a young lady., an orphan, of the age of seventeen, who was veiy, rich, was married to a young man without fortune. — They hud lived in the most perfect happi ness; and it was with the utmost astonish ment that their neighbors and friends heard of their intending, by mutual agreement, to take advantage of the new law of divorce, b.v mutual consent: but their surprise was still greater, when, two or three days after, they saw them married to each other again. The reason was, that the young lady’s guardians had only consent'd to the first union, upon the condition that the lady’s whole fortune should be secured to her; so that the husband could not engage in any benificia! use of the capital The marriage was dissolved by the a evolutionary law of divorce; and the lady being thereby made mistress of her fortune, by being of age, she proved her liberality and affection by 1 making Jter husband master of her whole 1 property. llaboons at the Cape of Good Hope. — On the bids near Simmons Town, at the j Cape of Good Hope, (says Lieut. Shipp, j in his Memoirs,) whole regiments of baboons j assemble. These rascals, who stand six ; feet high, and are abominable thieves., used to annoy us exceedingly. Our barracks were under the hills, and when we went to parade, we were-invariably obliged to leave armed men lor ilie protection of our pro perty: and even in spite of this they have frequently stolen -our blankets and great coats, or any thing else they could lay their claws on. A poor woman, a soldiers's wife, had washed her blanket and hung it out to dry, when some of these miscreants, who were ever on the watch, stole it, and ran off with it into the hills, which are high and woody. This drew upon them the indig nation of the regiment, and we formed a strong party, armed with sticks aud stones to attack them, with the view of recovering the property, aud inflicting such chastise | merit as might he a warning to them for the ‘future. 1 was on the advance, with about t twenty men; and I made a detour to cut j them off from caverns to which they always tlew for shelter They observed my move ment, and immediately detached about fifty to guard the entrance, while the others kept tlieir posi; and we could distinctly see them collecting large stones an I other missiles. One old grey-headed one in particular, who often paid us a visit at the barracks, and was known by the name of Father Murphy, was seen distribuiing hi* orders, and plan ning the attack with the judgement of one ofour best generals. Finding that my design was defeated, I joined the corps de main , and rushed on to the attack, when a scream from Father Murphy was a signal for age , neral encounter, and the host of baboons under his command rolled down enormous stones upon us, so that we were obliged to give up the contest, or some of us must kvevitahly have been killed. They actual ly followed us to our very doors, shouting jin indication of victory; and during the whole night ie heard dreadful yells and screaming, so much so that we expected a eight attack In the morning, however, we found that all this rioting had been created by disputes about the division of the blanket; for we saw eight or ten of them with pieces of it upon their backs, as old women wear their cloaks Among the number strutted Father Murphy. These rascals annoyed us day and night; and v;e dared not venture out unless a party of five or six went together. One morning Father Murphy had the consumate impudence to walk straight into the grenadier barracks, and lie was in the very act of purloining a Serjeant’s regimental coat, when a corporal’s guard (which had just been relieved,) took the liberty of stopping the gentleman at the door, and secured hitn. Ho WBS a powerful brute, and, I am persuaded, too much for any single man. Notwithstanding his frequent misdemeanours, we oi l not Ui\e to kill the poor creature ; s<>, first having taken the precaution ot muzzling him, we determined on shaving Ins head and (act, and then turning him loose. I o this cere mony, strange to say, he submitted very quietly; and, when shaved, he was really an txceedingly good looking follow; and I have seen many a “blood * in B< mi-street not half so prepossessing in bis appearance. W t then started him up the hill, though he seefoed rather reluctant to leave us. Some of In* companions came down to meet him; but, from the alteration which shaving his head and face had made iu him, they did not know him again and accordingly pelted him with stones and beat him with sticks in so unmerciful manner, that poor Father Murphy actually sought protection from his enemies, and he in time became quite do mesticated and tame. There ate many now alive in his his Majesty’s 22d regiment of foot who can vouch for the truth of his anecdote. MARINE JQURSiAX*. PORT OF SAVANNAH.
