As no mail is received here on Monday, Vre take the opportunity to iusert officially the late Convention between this country and Russia, which we have bad on hand some time. Ireland.—'The affairs of this important member of the United Kingdom, appear to be rising in interest—and to claim some at tention from the British government. The Catholic Association have become more ac tive thau usual, and under the name of a Catholic rent, are collecting contributions trom every part of the kingdom to attain the objects of the association by constitu tional means. But the event which has attracted the most attention, is the arrest of a principal leader, Counsellor O’Connell.— At one of the meetings of the association, this highly influential member alluding to the efforts of the Catholics of Ireland, inti mated that they were contending or would contend for the same cause as the people of Greece and South-America. He was soon after arrested on a government-warrant— and his trial was to take place on the 3d January. The Dublin Morning I’ost, says —“ Never since the proceedings of 1812, was public anxiety roused to such a pitch.” Mr. O’C. intends to defend his case in pro pria persona, and will be assisted by Messrs Wallace, K. C. Holmes, Perrin, O’Logli- Ian and Sbeil, all eminent men. Official notice is given from the Treasury.

I would ask, if one of our modern philos ophers had lived in those ages, would he not, in the enthusiasm of his meditations, have at once expressed the flattering senti ment, now so prevalent, and, throwing a the 24th of February, 1815, that the prim cipal and interest which may be due at the time, will be paid to the Proprietors, or to their Attorneys, on the first day of April next, at the Treasury in Washington, or at such Loan Office on the books whereof any portion of the Stock may stand.

But it is the error of men, who presuming to describe at so vast nn interval, imagine circumstances and connexions, which have no existence; as it is often found that lumlB, which ap peared united when observed remotely, arc in reality,and upon a closer view, eternally separated by the ocean Among the most sanguine, and the most singular of modern philosophers, was the good Abbe de Saint Pierre. The honesty of his heart, exceeded the rectitude of his understanding. His “ Universal Pence," by the infelicity of the style, could not find readers, hut the celebrated Rosscau, oi. bcllislied this neglected work, and enabled us to read the performance, or perceive its humane imbecility. Tile good Abbe had a notion that an age was not lar distant when such would be the progress of that mass of light, which was daily gathering, that it would influence every species of knowledge and penetrate to the lowest orders of so ciety. He who thinks, will perceive in every en lightened nation, three kinds of people : an inconsiderable number instructed by reason and glowing with humanity, a countless multitude barbarous and ignorant, intole rant and inhospitable,and a vascillating peo- jn that city and county. The value of real estate in Westchester is next highest, be ing $6,758,336, and that of Albany follows, $6,748,072. Letters from England mention that the How Waverly Novel, the Cruaaders, has been suspended. The reason is said to he known only to the author. It is generally understood that Sir Walter Scott will put hiB name in the title page. Previous to the meeting of Congress at the present Session, it was a common pre diction that, in the House of Representa tives, particularly, there would be but lit tle debate, and still less actual transaction ofbusines. As to the Debates, our readers are qualified to pass an opinian. As to the business actually transuded, there has been within our recollection, not as much busi ness of real importance actuurally done in the House of Representatives, at the same stage of any former session, as of this. ‘ Aid. hit, TO THE EDITORS OF THE GEOROIAN. ON THE TERM ENLIGHTENED PUBLIC." National virtues may be compared thus : first, like the seed that produces the blade, then the green ear, and lastly, the ripe corn, pie, with some reason and humanity, but with great prejudices, at once the half echoes of philosophy and the adherents of popular opinion. Can the public then be denominated “ enlightened ?” Take an ex tPnsive view amongst the various orders of society, and observe how folly still wantons in the vigour of youth, and prejudice still stalks in the stuhhorness of old uge. To trace the human mind, as it exists in a people, would bn the only method to do tect this fallacious expression. The en lightened members who aro totally uninflu enced by the few, live in a world of their own creation. In a metropolis we contemplate the hu man mind in all its inflexions. If wo were to judge of men by the rendition of their marvellously extravagant. We must leave them for posterity. We may, however, say to the greatest genius—look at what your equals have done, and observe how fre quently they haveerrod—reflect thatwhen- ever nn Aristotle, a Descartes, or a New ton appeared, they formed angw epocha in the annals of human knowledge. There fore, it is not unreasonable to conclude, that future rivals may truce new correc tions and collect new facts w hich may tend to annihilate theirs. I would ask—is not opi nion often local, and even disguised by cus tom ? Is not what we sometimes eall truth, after all, error ? and are not the passions of men of so very temporary a nature, that they scarce endure with their century ? 1 conclude by remarking, that whoever chu- ses to immortalize his name by an action of patriotism, or of philanthropy, will moot the certain admiration of posterity. To render a Bervice to another is in the pow er of the meanest individual, but to aggran dize the gentlest affections into sublime passions, to rise from the social circle to the public weal,'to extend our ordinary life through years of glory, is performing that, which once raised men into demi gods, but whi^h in the present age finds few imitators. N3w, if the term “ Enlightened Public” may be applied, I consider that in this coun try, we have many pretensions to it. A spirit ofbenefitting the rising generation, by diffusing knowledge, seems to be the ruling object of every class of individuals, that havo it in their power by personul atten dance to superintend and assist gratuitously in the instruction o.f youths of both sexes— It is an honorable and benevolent enter- prize, which speaks more than all panegy ric can possibly do. For in no part of the world does this philanthropicn) and praise worthy energy exist, to such a great extent, as it does in this country. Here the poor man’s child is taught in these valuable in stitutions, which do honor to the hearts of the people.
