You •i know I am the slave of superstitious opin- '' a nd the following strange and inex- ;erved only to root ;t the Lying one day on a bank (more deeply. fof flowers shaded by an orange grove, the beautiful Tagus murmenng at my foot, I heard a clear and sonorous voice distinctly pronounce my name three times. I turned round, to ask who call ed I saw no one; but heard a second summons. “ Listen!” it now repeated thrice in a soft voice. I arose, and in stantly sunk appalled on-the ground, on hearing he words which followed ; “ Lis ten thou Marquis d’Antares ! thy death is ordained 1” No awful phantom ap proached to notify whence the prophecy proceeded ;—I searched, but neither saw nor heard any thing more. The predic tion fastened on my very soul, and impel led me to visit mv favourite bank the fol lowing day. The same dreadful and vis ionary mandate was repeated on this and the third day, after which I heard it m> more. The exterminating threat follow ed me every where. Undefined as it was to any precise period, it nevertheless drove me from public amusements to a more close attendance on the duties of religion. One Sunday evening I had been at vespers, when a funeral dirge was chanted. I returned home, and went to sleep under the serious reflections ot mv own mortality. At midnight a loud sigh, twice repeated, awakened me,and I start ed up, but perceived no object in the room. Again the same voice I heard in the garden at Atanjuez alarmed me. “ Listen, thou Marquis d’Antares, thy death is ordained!”—! sunk back on the bed with terror, and opening my eves be held on the opposite wall, in a scroll o illuminated death’s beads, the same word in legible diameters of fire. My senses now faded away before the phenomenon, Iin d l lay without moving till the morning bell announced b-eakfast. On the same day I set about arranging all inv temporal concerns, and wrote a long letter of love and separation to mv beloved dementia, to be delivered by Rondo af.er my death. Indeed, I sometimes thought from the si lence of Yestola she was dead ; nhd dwelt with delight on her bavins; entered the im mortal region to winch I was hastening. Hence I visited no part of my place bu the chapel, and my friends, ignorant of mv secret, concluded I was sinking fast into insanity. About a month after th s, I took to my bed; a violent fever burn* me by day, and fearful dreams harrowed me up bv night. My mother and Rondo hung over the last appearance ot anima tion with ihe most profound sorrow, and only waited" for the parting breath to con vey the emaciated skeleton to the silent tomb of its ancestors. I lay myself in expectation of the awful change one night, and had raised my eves, to take a last fam- well of them, thinking they were beside me, when bv the dim light of a fleeting taper, I beheld a person clothed in white, of a singular fashion, sitting in a chair at the foot of the bed. I saw in him distinct ly the venerable features of my deceased father. As I regarded the beloved object with delight and reverence, for fear had now lost all power over me, he stood up, and in a solemn and majestic manner stretched out his hand aftectionately to wards me. A smile overspread his fea tures, and he uttered these words in a hollow soft voice: “My son, thy death will not yet be '—We shall not meet in heaven for a season!” Then pointing to a tab!e on which stood some fruit, which I had hitherto from weakness been unable to taste, he again smiled, and, with a look of religious resignation, slowly glided across the chamber and disappeared. On the exit of this paternal and ghostly phy sician, I called to Rondo to hand me the fruit pointed at. The pomegranate alle viated my burning thirst,-and the assu rance, that mv days were no longer num bered, calmed the agitation of my soul. Mv cure w-as rapidly effected, and my friends considered mv recovery as a re surrection from the dead. Worldly mo tives, with the return of health, resumed their force, and I recollected that I had neglected to fulfil a particular injunction of mv father’s will, which was to repair his favorite summer mansion house, on the banks of the Tagus. I had dispatch ed Rondo, with orders to see one of the wings thoroughly lepaired, when the mel ancholy event of. my mother’s sudden death took place in my family. In a few days after her interment, I received the following letter from my old house keeper in the country. “ Most honoured Senor: A sad terri ble accident has happened here : Rondo came down and began to repair the west Win g of the old mansion: but, your Ex- ceilenza, there is an end of the wing and him together. A terrible hurricane rose ' ] ast n ight,blew down that side of the build ing, killed two men, almost frightened me to death, and has buried poor Rondo in the ruins—so now we wait for your Excellenza’s farther orders.” “ You may naturally suppose, my dear Rondolos, I was more afflicted at the loss of my faithful Rondo than the fallen wing of theT old mansion—“ Surely,” said I, “ Don Algonah has dealings with the de vil, and he sets him to haunt me! Idle as this speech was, it led to a train of thoughts, which gave some colour to the remark, as my recollection surveyed the horrors of the hellish Chamber in Mon- tillo castle. “ The next morning I went to look af ter Rondo, and survey the ruin.—No trace of him could be found, and I almost be lieved the report of the servant, that Lu cifer had whisked him away in a whirl wind.—Here I remained three weeks, during which I learned your return from Portugal. I had heard so much in your favor, added to the event of last night, and the similarity you bear to my lost Marano, that I have determined to make you my friend. “ You now see, Olivaro, that my intro duction to Don Algonah could have been of no service to you, and with our joint council and courage, we will endeavor t*. counteract the designs of the old tyrant.” “ I am your’s,” exclaimed Rondolos: “to rescue AmaraRta and Clementia, I am ready to hazard my person and fortune.” They discoursed togethei till the broad light of morning appeared, when they se parated, and agreed to meet again in the evening. D’Antares then retired to his garden, pleased with the passion Olivaro had conceived for Amaranta, as it would form a double link of friendship between them, and contemplating the means of procuring an interview with that lady, through Count de Bellara’s acquaintance with the Don. In the midst of his reverie, he started at the sight of Rondo, who presented him self, covered with dust, as if he had just terminated a long journey. “ Ha ! my brave fellow !” cried the Marquis d’An tares, “ where have you hidden yourself, whence come you, and what have you been about!” “ About a foolish business, as it has turned out,” said Rondo ; “ but it was all for vour good, noble sir, though it has turned out good for nothing.—You remember you gave me orders to fit up the old mansion.—Now, thought I, to make the job complete, I must look out for a lady to it, and who is so fit as mv master’s own choice, Lady Clementia. Then there will be an end of his pining and ill ness.—Old Yestola never sending any news, I set off privately in search of some, and so reached the lifcmle* about a league from Montillo castle.!—I took np my lodg ing at an honest cot'^ger’s, one of whose <laugh*ers carried curds and cream to the castle.—“ Look ye, friend,” said I, “ I w .tit a billet conveyed to the ladies in the castle, and if I could ma^e your daughter the bearer “ It (is an ugly busi ness,” said the cottager.“ Never: mind that,” said I, “ here is something will make it look handsomer.” At the same time I put a double doubloon into his hand.—“Pray,” continued I, “is Don Algonah married again!” 44 No,” replied he, “ but not from bis own disinclination.: Hisvis’tsto Grenada have nenvcome out he courted a young wife, and had actually led her to the holy altar, when the nup tials were broken off in confusion by the arrival of a stranger. No one knows who which they made themselves liable to the M’Intoshes for twentyjsix or twenty-sev en thousand dollars ; which the latter now claim. Having discovered the imposition, the Chieftains reject its admission and re fuse to pay the amount; consequently the money continues in the hands of Colonel Crowell, the Creek Agent. To Washington City, they have written making heavy charges against the Gener al Government, against Georgia, and a gainst the Agent. The finger of the Cher okees may be seen in this businesss. Tha crafty people, convinced from the tone o the Georgia papers, that as soon as thej difficulties with the Creeks are settled,] iheir own Nation will be the next object, are anxious to keep alive the excitement among the Creeks to the latest hour. The Family of the M’Intoshes, t who have this claim upon the Creeks, consist of Roily, (brother of the late General) Chil-j ly, (a son) and the General’s two wive: and three daughters. The Creeks positively refuse any fur ther propositions for the balance of thei land in Geoigia. These facts may be re lied upon as substantially correct. Colonel Crowell is said to have set ou| for Augusta, and may, it is surmised, ex tend his journey to Washington City, be fore he returns.

By a gentleman direct from the ne counties in this State, where he had bee informed on the subject, we learnt, tha’ there yet prevails a rebelious spirit amoid the Indians, who are determined nottosurj render the land beyond what is called thJ new treaty 1 ne—That they decline anj further negotiation for the land embraceil by the old and not the new treaty—anc that the money appropriated by govern' ment for them, is refused to be received] In consequence of these unexpected pro ceedings, we learn, that Mr. Crowell has or will immediately proceed to Washingto to make a full representation of the case It is also stated to us, that the Cheroke chief, Ridge, is in the Creek Nation en couraging the views which have been man ifested by the Creeks. Mr. Crowell i said to have exprssed to the Indians thl impropriety of their conduct, and warne them of the consequences. We have hear of no obstacles to emagrants to this, or an other of the new counties, from the Indi ans.—Macon Messenger. success on the occasion alluded to, certain ly afforded a striking proof of the strength of their friendship in the loudness of their report, for they made “ The kettle to the trumpets speak “ The trumpets to the cannonier without; “ The cannons to the Heavens, the Heavens to Earth.” On Tuesday night, there was more mu sic and more firing of cannon. It is said, he was, but as soon as he had delivered his message, he re-mounted his horse, and ■ odo away. Some say it was the same ghost which frightened away the guests on his marriage with Lady Cleona.” “ Finding this was all I could learn, I dispatched my pretty postman with my billet, announcing mv business and ap pointing a place of interview in the ever green temple at twelve.—Accordingly I chmbed the garden wall, and repaired to the appointed spot; but the midnight bell struck, and then the half-hour chimes rang, without any one approaching.—Presently I heard a light footstep and a whispering voice, calling out Rondo ! Rondo !—- “ Here am I,” said I, starting up. “ How does your master and Marano I” said La dy Amaranta : “ My sister has mislaid the letter, and is so much flurried she cannot come—I run a thousand hazards and must return in a moment.” “ Lord,” said I, “ Lady, I have formed a plan to effect Vour escape by a boat on the Darro ; for, surely, you would rather live with such gentlemen in Madrid, than be with the dismal Don in this castle.” “ Indeed,” replied Amaranta, “ If I could persuade mv sister, I would willingly go, I am so tired of this dreary frightful place!” “ Say you so!” cried Don Algonah, as he ad vanced from behind ; “then,by the deeps of hell, you shall soon quit it!” He imme diately drew his sword, but I escaped in the confusion, as he fell over the body of Amaranta, who had fainted. “ I returned to the cottager, who was alarmed at this termination of the busi ness, fearful that he and his daughter might be brought under the Don’s displeasure. On the foilowing day, he met the fisher man who supplied the castle with fish ; and from him he learned that the report there was, that Donna Amaranta was HI, and that the Don had given orders for a journey to Madrid, to place her in a con vent, with the Lady Abbess, with whom he was intimately acquainted. “ Thinking this was only a feint to con ceal the real place of her imprisonment, I waited till he set out, and hung upo.i his rear till he arrived in Madrid.—So now, your Excellenza,!if I have done wrong, I hope it will be the last time !” D’Antares readily forgave him, and in the evening visited his friend Olivaro.—They repair ed to the Prada, where they saw the Count de Bellara, walking with Algonah. “ Now,” said the Marquis d’Antares, “ for ruse contre ruse.—While you throw yourself in their way, and detain them in conversation, I will fly to the Count’s and effect an interview with Amaranta.—Oli varo approved of the scheme, an'd, wishing the Marquis success, he accosted the Count, and politely noticed the Don. (To be continued.) CREEK AFFAIRS. The present difficulties with the Creek Indians, we understand, originated in the subject of damages in property sustained bv the M’lntoshes, at the time their Head Man was executed b v sentence of the Na tion. At the request of the Chiefs, Col onel Tutt, as special agent was sent into the Nation to estimate the loss; which was to be liquidated out of the annuity.— This he appraised at about ten thousand dollars, and the Ceeek authorities appear ed satisfied with the decision. Through the intrigues of their Cherokee Scribes, Ridge and Vantf, a law was howe-ver con jured up and an agreement signed, by A Printer in extremities !—A Pennsyl vania paper says, “ the Printer want Grain, Pork, Tallow, Candles, Whiskey Linen, Beeswax, Wool, and every thin] else, that he can eat. The Printer out of extremities.—“ W 1 have in our possession, says the Easton Sentinel, a ham which, after being well prepared and smoked, weighs sixty-nine and a half pounds.” FROM THE CONSTITUTIONALIST. HAMBURG (S. C.) GREAT GUNS. On the night of Monday last, martial music and the firing of cannon in the town of Hamburg, drove sleep from the eyes of our startled citizens, and curiosity eagerly demanded what wonderful incident had occasioned a noise so tremendous? The patereroes which as the ingenious author of Peregrine Pickle relates, used to be fired at the Garrison of Commodore Tru- nion, upon the happening of all extraor dinary events, were nothing at*al! to it:— had the faithful Tom Pipes himself been in Hamburg, he must have knocked under to the loudness of the cannonade, and con fessed the utter inability of the patereroes aforesaid, of which Tom had the chief management, to rival the long loud echo- ingnote of the Hamburg Great Guns.— Many were the conjectures afloat—some thought that the forces of the P esident were down upon us—others imagined that some uncommonly great man, being upon his travels, had stopped at our neighboring town for the night, and that the Burghers were doing him honor; the names of the Secretary of State, Mr. Van Buren, the Vice President, Messrs. Gales &. Seaton, and the Duke Saxe .Weimar, instantly suggested themselves. It was again sur mised, that the noise was caused by a strong effort to destroy mosquitoes and to purify the atmosphere, and there were some who were nervous enough to fancy the explosion to be real thunder, and the music to be music from the spheres. An old lady who has long been looking out for the latter day, insists tliat the night of Monday, was one of “signs and wonders,” and she is preparing a faithful account of it which may be expected shortly to appear. Now we believe, that there is no truth in any of these conjectures, nor yet in ano- -iher, that we have heard, to wit : that a gentleman of Hamburg, has recently con tracted an alliance with an accomplished Heiress of a Northern City, and that his friends were rejoicing at his good fortune ; to say the truth, after the exercise of some diligence we have not been able to find out with certainty, why “ these cannon over charged with double cracks,” were let off at the . dead hour of night. What we know, however, we are not willing to with hold from the reader, although it is true, we know but little. It is said, then, that Mr. Shultz, the founder of Hamburg, the stretch of whose intellect, and the fertility of w hose genius every body allows, has succeeded in one of his law suits, and that he has become the purchaser of Hamburg, the said town having been sold at Edgefield Court-House, on Monday last. Whether this sale will be more binding than other sales of the same property already effect ed, we are not prepared to say, nor can we assert to what extent Mr. S. has suc ceeded in his law suit—we only know, that he has very warm friends in Ham burg, who if they testified their joys at his Rum—-Jamaica, (direct importation) 120 a 15 West India, do go New England, hhd. 3g Ditto bbl. 40 Brandy—Cognac, 4th pf.
