Perhaps in publiebin{f the following high
ly complimentary notice of the honors paid
to the beloved Guest of the Nation, in this
city, we may bo charged with vanity. Be
it bo. We cannot, however, permit our-
eelvos to be prevented from conveying to
our felloV-cilucne a testimonial so honora
ble, and from such a source »o gratifying,
to every one, who took part in that heart-
thrilling occasion. As far as the expression
of approbation in the following nolo, re
lates to oursolves, we can truly say that, on
the occasion in question, we only attempted
(and we know we executed the pleasing
task but faintly) to express the feelings which
agitated the bosom of every individual glad
dened by the presence of the revered La-
VAVKTTK.
Next to the pleasure of performing a du
ty, is the satisfaction of receiving the meed
of praise, from those whose opinions and
feelings we have most cause to respect and
honor.
Ifthereisone thing, which more than
another, can add to the love we bear “ our
own, our native land,” it is the proof daily
afforded of the high and morally refined
feeling of the fairer portion of its population.
The Spartan Matron, when she presented
her son his shield, bade him return “ with
it, or upon it.” With a patriotism equally
vivid, and a virtue equally to be venerated,
hut with a loveliness aud a gentleness, more
characteristic of the female heart, the “Gre
cian Ladies,” are satisfied to win their sub
jects to the path of duty, by offering as the
reward of desert, the proudest trophy which
can be won by man, the approving smile
of female virtue.
Let it not he said, the age of chivalry is
gone. When the Fair of America, thus
offer the meed of approbation to those who
have deserved favor in their eyes, he most
be a recreant Knight who would not still
continue to deeerve it. Beneath our south
ern skies, there are hearts which throb with
no common ardor in the cause of gratitude
and patriutism, and hands which. Bhould oc
casion offer, will be nerved “with strings of
steel," in defenoc of the homes endeared to
them by domestichappincss-aooh wore those
which wmlenmedthogoo<lLA r »VE lT a—such
are those which now reciprocate the flatter
ing compliment of the virtuous daughters of
America, whose lenst claim to the respect
and affection of republicans, is the adoption
of a name associated with all that is lovely
in poesy, resplendent in history, or honora
ble in patriotism, heroic'daring and utisul-
lied fame.
For the information of those of our read
ers who may not be acquainted with the
subject, we would remark, that in the year
1822, when the efforts of the Greeks had bo-
gun to create a deep and heurtfelt interest
throughout the Union, auumberof ladies,
whoso feelings were enlisted with the char
acteristic warmth and sensibility of the sex,
in that cause, procured a cross of forty
feet in height to be erected on Brooklyn
Heights, opposite the city of New-York.
This cross was declared to be sacred to the
cause of the Greeks, and offered to the ac
ceptance of General Swift, the Chairman
of ihe first meeting in favor of that strug
gling and bleeding people, with the hope
“ that the Grecian Cross might be planted
from village to village, and from steeple to
steeple, until it rested upon the Dome of
St. Sophia." It was desirable to surmount
this memento with the Grecian Wreath of
Victory; bpt as some difference existed as
to the proper material of wiiich it should be
composed, tile Grecian Ladies, (the title
which they assumed) offered a “ Gold Me
dal to any Grecian, whu should inform them
nf what material (flowers or leaves or both)
the Greek Wreath or Garland was com
posed.’? This request, from such a source,
produced a discussion in the public prints,
equally honorable to the learning and the
gallantry uf the writers. The decision was
finally given in fuvor of the olive. Among
those who took part in this honorable con
test, were ProfuSBor A»thon, of Columbia
Collego i Professor Moore, of the samo in
atitution; Dr. Hnsack ; Col. Trumbull
Mr. Genet; Dr. King; Professor Everett,
of Harvard University; Rev. Professor Do
ane, of Washington College, l/artford: and
His Excullency Do Witt Clinton. Governor
af the State of New-York. The several
communications have since been collected
in a small volume of 119 pages, and publish
ltd with the names of the writers, under tbo
titl.a of “ The Grecian Wreath of Victory.”
This hi tho “ Wreath” mentioned in the
subjoined letter to the editors of this papor.

LATEST OF THE LIVERPOOL MAR
KET—BY EXPRESS.
The following intelligence was received
yesterday morning in this city, by expross
frof*^ht\rlcsto£ whore it was received by
the ship Calhoun, in a short passage from
New-York. For its effects upon our mar
ket, wo must rnfer our roaders to our wnok-
ly statement in another column, Wc wore
indebted for it to a commercial friend, and
published it in an extra, at 11 u’clock.wliich
was delivered to most of our subscribers,
immediately after. Tlireeexpresses we un
derstand, were despatched with the intelli
gence to tile west.
Extract frim a -Vnc-York paper, of April
12lll, 11125.
The ship New-Eiiglund, Berry, nrrived
last evening, having sailed from Liverpool
on 15th ultimo. It will be seen by the ex
tracts in this day’s Gazette, that the news
continues highly interesting, sb far as re
spects the market. There is no political
intelligence of moment, and we have no
room for the speculations of the London
Editors.
Tiie sales of cotton at Liverpool, for the
weekending l'2tli ult. amounted to 17,338
bags, including 9871 Bowcds at 1 If a 16(1;
528 Orleans, I I a 16d; 421 Tennessee and
Alabama, 12] a Mil; and 239 Sea Island,
at UO a Sid. “In tho early part of the
week," says a letter of the 12th, “ there was
father an animated demand from the trade
and speculators, attended by an advance in
American Cotton of Id a I jd, but since
Tuesday, there has been very little doing,
and prices have again declined |d a jd, iu
Uplands, and about Id in Orleans and Ten-
nessees. Sea Islands, from their scarcity,
maintain full prices. There has been a lit
tle more enquiry to-day, and the market is
assuming a firmer appearance—the saleB of
all sorts are estimated at 4000 bags.”
The unsettled state of the Market, and
the fluctuation in prices, are chiefly to be
attributed to the restlessness of speculators,
and the anxiety of a few of the importers,
who without any apparent reason, brought
their stock forward, when there was little
or no demand. The host informed, wo be
llevo hnva not all prod I bat. siwm <-C »Ko
market, which are favorable for the main
tenance of at least present rates ”
A letter dated 14th ult. says, “ this morn
ing the market opened with a moderate de
mand fur cotton, and the advance of Satur-
day appeared fully supported, hut at about
4 o’clock, one Broker purchased upwards of
6000 lings Egyptian Cotton, at 13} a lSJd
and he took tor one house about 1300 bugs
Upland at 13d.—The tolul snles of tho day
arc estimated at 10.000 bags, aud as this
extensive operation has caused some sensa
tion in the market, we cannot hut hope, we
shall havea further improvement in prices.”

Match at Chi*».—We understand the Ed
iuburgli Chess Club,, have won the first
game in the match between England und
Scotland. Thu Scotch game at one pi*.t*»d of
it. was considered desperate, but it appears
thiil tho English Club, in their eugeruess to
obtain a victory, which, with a little cau
tion, might have been emuly secured, sac
rificed u Rook. Even after this sacrifice,
they might have forced a drawn game by
giving.perpctuul check ; but confiding too
much in their own resources, or not suffi
ciently respecting the skill of their adversa
ries, they persisted in endeavoring to win
the game. Tho men of the North display
ed as much promptitude in taking advant
age of the rush confidence of their antag
onists as they hud ulrcady exhibited of pas
sive courage during the season of adversity,
and they have ultimately won the game.—
Chess-players will appreciate the merit due
to the perseverance and skill of the Scotch
Club, when it is considered that the game
was successively won and drawn is its na
ture tor the English Club, and that the Ed
inburgh players had to contend against a
Coinmi tee which if» acknowledged to com
prehend the finest pincers in tiiis country.
A second game has been drawn, and a third
game is still pending* the moves being trans
mitted, as usual, by a return of post. Bets
of five to two have been lost on the first
gaum, nnd bets of three to two, in favor of
i lie English Club, arc still offered on the re
sult of tlm match.
Mont hit/ Agricultural Report.—The un
favorable state of the weather daring lust
month, enabled all the farmers of dry sound
funds, to complete that part of wheat sow
ing, left unfinished in the autumn. The
seed chosen, for this period, lias been chief
ly the Spanish, or Tulavera, and our early
Biunnwr wheat. The wot lands, in course,
not in u fit state to receive the seed, or in
deed scarcely tube stirred in any way.must
remain until fit for the reception of some o?
the spring crops. The weather duriug the
present month, has not yet benefited them,
in uny sufficient degree, and th< y have been
tilled imperfectly* with much labor. On
the best lands, they are getting forward
with the spring crops; and our neighbors
the Scots, among the in$t successful and
least dissatisfied of fanntthi, began oat-sow
ing. in “am* f»t* their moatrfavorod districts,
as early as Valentine’s da/. The wheat,
on good soils, is large anu luxuriant, yet.
from excess of moisture, divested of that e-
lasticity and curl which it would derive
from a dryer state of the atmosphere.—
There will doubtless be abundance of straw
whatever there may be of grain. As to
the crops on poor lands, so long sodden with
moisture, particularly on clays, they have
a most unfavorable appoarnnee, and can
only bo recovered by a continuance o&dry
and warm weather. The few frosts wo
have had, immediately alternating with
thaw and rain, or fog and high winds, have
greatly injured.thos^ wheats, by laving bare
their roots, and eveu ejecting the plants
fr »m the soil. The slugs also have contin
ued their ravages, unmolested; nevortho-
l i s9. we have fonnerly seen crops, equully
injured, prove successful, after a favorable
spring; the thinning of them (having heen
very thickly soitfn) actually turning out
beneficinl in the end. But every season
brings with it its evil as well ae its good ;—
und there is, in our happy days, such a
world full of broad corn, that dearth or
want seem fortunately quite out of view or
speculation. The chief apprehension ari
ses from the long prevalence of the. wester

anil Bridewell concurs in the opinion of the
Magistrates.
The oilier case, in the report from Shop-
ton Mallet, was of a still more serious ehar-
incter. The surgeon of that gaol reported
thut the tread-wheel had a si rong disposi
tion to produce rupture ; and lie reported
nine cases of rupture as having occurred in
the prison, though Jite of the persons hud
tho disease at former periods. In conse
quence of this r-'port the President, and iwo
of tho Examiners of the College ot Surgoons
(Mr. Norris,Sir W. Wizard, ami Mr. Cline,)
repaired to Shepton-Mullot; and after an
examination and mature consideration of
all the circunictanccs, they declare them-
aelves unanimously of opinion that the la
bour of the tread wheel, at the velocity of
<18 steps a minute, canuor he prejudicial to
the health of any person who is equal to
common labour ; thut seven out of the nine
cases of rupture arose from causes uncon
nected with the wheel, and t hat in the two
others also, as the surgeon had not examin
ed the prisoners previously, it was not cer
tain that the disease did not exist before
they began this species of labour.
