'Travels in Northern .lfrircr, in the years
1UUS, 19 and 50 ; accompanied by Geo
graphical Notice! if Soudan, and the
Course of the Niger, be. By Captain G.
F. Lyon, ft- -ft’’ companion of the lute Mr.
Ritchie —and on a *t;con<i work by
John Dudley, (he object of which is lo
shew the identity of the rivers Niger and
Nile. Capt. Lyon volunteered his servi
ce# to accompany Mr. Ritchie, who was
about proceeding on a mission from Tri
poli to the interior of Africa. On as
sembling at Tripoli, in November, lb It!,
the\ found Mukni, the Bey ofT'ezzrn,
about to proceed to Mourzouk, the capi
tal of that country, which is considered
as a province of Tripoli, under whose
protection they were lo travel. But ns
some delay was likely to orcur in the
preparations of Alukni, Air. Ritchie con
cluded to make an excursion to Betiio-
leed, hy way of the Giiarian mountains,
to habituate the party to the mode of
travelling and manners of the Arabs, as
well as to quin some knowledge of the
interior of the Tripolitan dominions —
These people live underground, and the
following is the account of their subter
ranean habitations.
On reaching the summits of these
mountains, thiougli narrow, rigged, and
intricated passes, a table-land opened
upon the travellers, apparently in a high
etate •!' cultivation ; extensive fields of
corn and saffron, mingled with olive, ap
ple, and almond trees, formed a lively
contrast with the arid deserts on all sides
beneath but no human dwelling was
visible, all the inhabitants lying bcueath
the surface. A hole of about twelve
yards square is dug in the limestone rock
to the depth of twenty live or thirty feet.
At the bottom of this, excavations are
made mto the perpendicular faces of the
rocks according to the number and size
of the families they are lo lodge. The
only access to this area is through a
sloMng uassage, the entrance of which
is fRhfl^tance of 90 or *D0 feet, ft
is nimM^ched ftilli stoneL and^ecured
by a ponderous door. TbJt'yi this
their cattle'n^drftuAAd secje\ shut
up within the sqWRJmpg tflPmjit.
A few years ago tne^jresent Bashaw
of Tripoli made war upon these njoun-
taineers. For some time they djlerid-
©d their passes with great bravefy, and
destroyed numbers of the Tripoline ar
my ? they w ore at length forced back on
their subterranean abodes, when the Ba
shaw’s people collected heap? of straw,
set them on fire, threw them blazing in
to the areas, suffocated the inhabitants,
men women, and children, and returned
in triumph to Tripoli, with twelve ca
mel loads of heads !!! Notwithstanding
this, the Bashaw, we are told, is consid
ered a* a mighty good sort of a man for
a Turk, and much less blood-thirsty than
his brother despots ofTunis and Algiers:
and, in fact, though in his younger days
he openly rebelled against his father,
and murdered his elder brother in pre
sence of his mother, ns related in the
interesting letters of Airs. Tully, he is
unquestionably the most liberal of all
sovereigns who have wielded the blood
stained sceptre of Tripoli.”
Ai Benioleed, Capt. Lyon was intro
duced to thdUwife ot§(j£ek-Barood, the
chielfeanager of Tpukqi^wffairs. He
liaiyj^u lposr Jjcautiful
creator? en, andLo fat that she
could scarcely w'rftt*. wis last is es
teemed the very highest pBhtt of female
perfection in Africa. A description of
this paragon of beauty is given—which
xveoniil. Capt. Lyon was very gracious
ly received, and invited to sit close to
her, when one of the first questions she
asked was, whether tho ladies of his
country were as fat and as handsome an
herself. He was obliged to acknow
ledge, with a degree of mortification,
that he had never seen one of his coun
try women possessed of one half her ro
tundity.
In his account of Mourzouk, Captain
Lyon says—“ The people have their
booza-houscs similar to those of Nubia,
at which singiug and dancing women con
stantly attend ; their songs are pretty
and plaintive, anti generally in the Soudan
language, which is very musical. IJc
heard the song mentioned by 1 lorneman;
and what was singular, he discovered
that it was sung by the same woman who
performed it before him at the Castle.
Some of these songs abound with po
etical images ;—for example a lover will
compare bis mistress to a young date
just ripened j the jetty hue of her skin,
to the wing of a raven ; her teeth to
pearls ; her eyes to the sun ; her breath
to the ottar ®f roses ; her nordj to musk;
her voice to erbab ; and her kisses to
honey, or the sugar brought from Egypt.
The Arab songs are all very pretty, and
generally in the same style. A young
man once took much pains to learn me
one. He 6ang it, as is the Arab custom,
in a voice low and monotonous, though
far from disagreeable. The hero of the
piece is one of the Waled Suliman; he is
riding to see a girl whom he admires,
but who belongs to another tribe. A?
nearly as l can recollect, the words ran
thus :
“ Here I am, well mounted, on a horse
whose ears are like pens, who runs like
nn antelopp, and who- knows none but
his master. Aly new red cap becomes
me ; well, my sword is sharp, my pistol?
well cleaned, and my belt shines in the
Sun. As the heart of a pigeon heats when
*he finds she is robbed of her young, so
will my love’s heart beat for me when
she sees me. She will not allow the dog
to bark, and she will leave the tent as if
in search of wood. Should her kinsmen
see her with me, she shall not fall under
their displeasure. I will lift her on my
and fly with her, for »v stad ha;
cars like pens, l.c runs like an antelope,!
and knows none but bis master. Mv |
new (again becomes nic well^iny sword
is sh *rp, my pistols clean, and my belt
shines in the sun.
<• Of this song,” says (lie Reviewer,
“ we have been favoured with ihe fol
lowing beautiful versification—we need
scarcely say by whom.”
“ SONG.
Behold me,” fling 11 assan the fearless niul
free,
« On (lie steed which obeys not a master but
me,
IVIm points like the quills of the eaglu bis ears,
And whose bound o'er the desel l is light us the
deer's.
Behold me with sabre well sharpen'd mid bright.
And with pistols new fliuted mid burnish'd lor
fight,
My cup with fre«h senrlnt so gaily be done,
And my baldrick of silver which gleams in the
sun.
When my true love espies me, the heart in her
breast,
Shull bent quick os the pigeon's, when robb'd
oilier nest; ’
She will hush the hoarse watch-dog, and hie to
the grove,
That the eyes of her kindred espy not her love;
Yet, let them descry me—their wrath 1 defy ;
And why should sire tremble when Hawaii is
nigh ?
Like llm hawk from the covey, selecting his
prey,
From the midst of her tribe I would bear her
away.
I would mount her behind me," sung Hasten
the tree,
“ On the steed which obeys not a rider but me;
Who points like the eagle's sharp feuthers his
ears,
Vnd whose bound o'er (lie desert is light as the
deer's. 1 '—N. Y. Daily Mr.
THE HOLY "LAND IN 1020.
The Rev. Mr. Connor, of England has
furnished the following curious particu
lars relative to the present state of the
loly Land at the least of the passover of
this year ;
Pilgrims.—The average number of
Greek 1’ilgrims is about 2,GUO ; this year
there are only 1,600. Ofthese Pilgrim-,
the majority are native Greeks, who
speak and read Romaic ; the next in num
ber are the Greeks from Asia Minor,
who speak and read the Turkish, but m
the Romaic character ; the third class
consists of Russian ; and the 4th and 5tb
of VVallachians and Bulgarians ; few,
however, of these pilgrims can read.—
The Armenian Pilgrims amount this year
to about 1,300. The majority-of them
are from Anatolia, and speak nothing but
Turkish. Very few of them can read.
The average number of Copt pilgrims is
about 200. This year only 150 arrived.
Their appearance is very wretched,—
The pilgrims that have visited Jerusa
lem may be summed up : Greeks, 1,600;
Armenians, 1,300: Copts, 150 : Catho
lics, 50, chiefly from Damascus ; Abys
sinian#, 1 ; Syrians, 59. Total, 3,1-10.
Jerusalem.—The streets of Jerusalem
were all life and bustle. To avoid the
confusion, we left the city by the gate of
Bethlehem, and passing along the north
side, fell in with the train of pilgrims at
the gate of St. Stephen. The scene was
very lively. 'I he path through which
we passed, down Mount Moriah, across
the Valley of Jehosaphat, and up the side
of Olivet, was lined with people who
came to witness the procession. A Tur
kish band of music, leaving the gate of St.
Stephen, and accompanied with banners,
proceeded with us as far as a tree on
Olivet, under which the Governor of Je
rusalem, with his court, was seated.—
Guns were fired at intervals.
Jericho.—After having crossed a num
ber of hills, we descended into the plain
of Jericho. In the midst of this plain ap
pears a large verdant tract like un oasis
in the desart; and here, embossed in
the trees, stands the wretched mud-
built village of the ancient Jericho, for
merly celebrated for the number of palm
trees growing near it, and on that ac
count called “ the City of Palms.” This
city was the first in Canaan which fell
under the power of the Israelites after
their entrance into the Land of Promise;
and the walls fell down before the Ark
of the Covenant on the first sound of the
trumpets, in the year of the world 2504,
and before Jesus Christ 1400.
River Jordan.—About half past three,
the next morning, we all sat out, by torch
light, for the Jordan. The appearance
of the pilgrims, moving in numerous and
detached parties with their flambeaux
across the plain, was singular and stri
king. The Jordan, at the spot where
the pilgrims bathed, is beautifully pic
turesque ; its breadth twenty yards, and
it is shaded on both sides by the thick
foliage of closely phtoted trees. The
water appeared turbid, and was not deep.
On retiring from the water, the pilgrims
employed themselves in cutting the
branches from the trees, to carry home
with them, as memorials of the Jordan
They then mounted their beasts, and re
turned to their former stationT'itt* the
plain.
Dead Sea..—Our party set off from the
Jordan with Prince AvnlofT (a Georgian)
and suite, to the Dead Sea, where we
arrived in about two hours and a half.—
We rambled about for some time on the
borders of this lake, which covers the
ashes of Sodom and Gomorrah. I tasted
Ihe water, and found it excessive nau
seous. Some of die parly bathed.
Solomon's Temple.—-Jerusalem is a
considerable place. The most beautiful
building within its walls is tho Mosque
ofOmer, w hich stands on the site of So
lomon’s Temple. The Turks have a
singular reverence for this mosque, and
will not permit a Christian to set his foot
in the large grassy area which surrounds
it.
Valley of Jehosaphat.—The walks
which I most frequent are those which
lead down to the valley of Jehosaphat, b\
the fountains ofSiloah, or those that run
along the side of Olivet. From the side
of Olivet-you have a very commanding
view of Jerusalem. The mosque of O-
mcr nppears particularly fiacfioai Ujc
situation. Tho greater part of tho anr-
voumling country is most desolate and
dreary. Hills of white parched lock,
dotted here and there with patches of
cultivated land, every where meet and
offend the eye.
NOBLE ACT.
On Sunday last the tvaui-hoat which |Ties
between Murray street and Hoboken, being
very full of passengers, many, at the sanm
time, were leaning against the confining rail
across I lie stern, which broke, bijivu passen
gers, including one female, fell into tho river.
A noble tar w ho happened to be nn board,
seized a bench, threw it overboard, and
plunged in alter it, and actually succeeded
! ‘- placing the whole of those in (lie Water
the bench. When a small boat came to
tlicir relief, lie was the first one who was at
tempted to l»i! taken on hoard. “ Never
ibid me,'’ said lie, *• save the others—1 can
lake care of myself”—and actually remain
ed in the witter, supporting the lienrli, until
Ihe whole were sated. We regret that wc
do not know lli*. name of this honest tar—
such godlike acts should be upheld a? exam
ples to the human species.—.V'. Y. Ga~,
LOVE UNDER A BED.
YVe have heard of a most extraordinary
fracas, which took place at the Wicklow
Hotel, Dublin, a few days ago. It would
appear that a Mr. LI , hat ing formed a
strong attachment to Mis# 11 , found
means lo secret himself in tile bed-chamber
of the young lady at the above hotel. Whol
ly unconscious of any such circumstance,
tho young lady entered her chamber at the
usual hour of repose, attended by her maid
servant, who while in the act of undressing
her mistress, purer ived a boot under the bed,
upon which, with great presence of mind,
?hc beckoned to’the lady to quit the room,
and followed as quickly herself. They im
mediately locked op the in' ruder, ami alarm
ed the house, upon which the father and
brother of the young lady flew to her assis
tance, and upon the door'being opened, a
violent scuffle ensued between the 'parties, in
the course of w Inch shots were fired by tho
lover, wo are happy to s, y, without taking
effect. It is added,’ that Mr. 15. has entered
into hail to a large amount lor his appear
ance.*— Dublin Paper.
National Traits.—Every nation lias its
traits :—the Spaniards sleep on every af
fair of importance—the Italians fiddle—
the Germans smoke—the French pro
mise every thing—the British cat—and
the Americans talk upon every thing.
Friendly warning.—A gentleman having
called* upon a friend with whom he found
two physicians, left at his departure the fnl
lowing lines, scribbled on the back of a letter.
“ By one physician might your work he done;
But (ico are like a dolihle-harrell'J gun :
From one discharge sometimes a bird has flown,
The second barrel always brings it down "
ax MlM.VAXWi.
B E it ordained hy the. Intnvlant am! Commis

if any person, after the passing of this Ordi
nance, shall hy himself, servant, or other a ;ent

“ But we’ll do more, Semprouius,
“ W e’ll deserve it.” Cato.
T HE Press lias been truly and classical
ly called tliu Palladium of Liberty.—
In the dissemination of useful know ledge—in
the correction of political abuses, it stands
proudly pre-eminent above every other in
stitution—it is the hand made to tho Arts
ar.d Sciences—tiie conservator of Genius,
and the Pioneer to the march of Liberty and
Virtue. However corrupt a Press may be ;
however ably and skilfully conducted, it can
not long retain an undue influence upon tin;
minds of the People ;—the glare of public
observation through which it moves, like the
unsullied Mirror of Confucius, immediately
reflects its deformity, and exposes its venali
ty. Some one hits iqltly observed, that o-
I'l.vtoN is th n (Jueen of the World! She i.x
emphatically so in a government like ours.
The aristocraticul maxim, “ the people arc
their own worst enemies,” under whatever
semblance it may appear, will still retain ari
impress of its original features ; and the ken
of an enlightened community will soon pene
trate the gossamer mantle, and drag the mon
ster to light.
We the People, will be particularly de
voted to an impartial examination ofthe po
litics of the State of Georgia—The policy of
it? present administration is one which fully
accords with oar feelings and principles—
and so long ns it adheres lo that honest and
independent course which has invariably
marked its progress, so long will the Editors
he devoted to its support. All other subjects
of Slate or National concern, will rcceire
that portion of attention which they merit ;
and every exertion will be used to render the
paper a medium of useful intelligence.
Such are the sentiments of the Editors—
am! thus feeling thinking, will they launch
their little barque, upon the political ocean.
With Ti nth their chart, and Independence
their compass, they hope in attempting to
avoid Srylla, they will not founder on Clin-
ryhdis; but ride in triumph ou the Sea of
Principle into the Port of Public Safety.
