BARNEY BLINN—CONTINUED. Oh it wa« a merry day I wnot), An over was in the county rtovn.* The girts and buy* were ilrWdso fine And tho soldiers "all urrangod in line. Tho long desired Fourth of July, at length arrived, it was one of those balmy mornings peculiar to ashatfowv, summer day, -subse queut to un evening shower in Georgia. Tho distantting-tong-dinglu-dong of the cow bell; tho nensivo bleat of tlie parted calf, und the young kid; were among the few sounds, floating on thu soft air, that lulled the extern aivo Fine Woods into listless quiet: even Drummer, and Spy; Filer, and Scout { Bar- noy’s wateliful, staunch and favorite hounds, luy dozing beneath tho old mulberry tree, in front of Ins snug log-house; and under its cool shade, Polly stood, hitched to thu branching horns of an old forester; the trophy of a long, and fatiguing hunt. Hero; there are no higlnvay-robbew, no stinted, and disaffected populace, clamouring ugnin9t exactions “corn laws” : nor a riotous combination of weavers, “holding out for high er wages” ; although murdered so frequently bv thy muskets ami bayonets of the mercena ries of a King, to keep’ them from rebellion. Hero ; the sweet solitude, which wraps in delightful stillness tlm flonumt bosom of the Pineland; seems to shadow forth an amiable tranquility over the tempers of those who in habit it, and hold the turbulent passions in weak subjection. Here; is to be found tho Podonian Groves of our Country ; if wo have no Mount Toma- rus, or Dzoumurka to ascend, &• get a glimpse ut futurity, through some Apollonian oracle : wo have tho beautiful und romantic Oconee, rising in lofty grandeur ; mingling its wooded summit, with tho clouds, and wo need no Or acle to foretell tho coming renown of our country, nor predict the lmppy destiny of its citizens; iftliey continue moral, industrious, and frugal: feeling grateful to that ijowor Supremo who has placed us in a climate, and soil, to supply us, with all the essentials of life, and many, very many luxuries: for hero the Cane, and the Vine, may delight and re- * fresh the palate of tho luxurious ; while the Corn and the Colton plant will Iced «& clothe us all. Hero too alone, is to be traced, in tho pri vate) walks of life, those bold lines of original character, that shun the stecpled city, until their nucossury wants force them into it, und which will over elevate tho unbending spirit oftho .Southern Ploughman, or Farmer, l»e- yound tho control of foreign innovation, or tho gaudy nothingness of Royalty,: Here, scatter ed throughout these wide spread Pine Forests, is to be seen, the feeble rear-guard of that Band of Patriots, who rolled back tho stormy wave of civil war, upon the rugged shores of Europe. Agreeable to previous njrnngcmcnt, Ned Outlaw, thu first Lieutenant ol’Capluin Winn's Company, assumed the commu ltd ; die Pious mister Stillwater was to precede tho Declara tion, by prayer, and squire Dodd otrered to read that memorable instrument. An eleva ted hill near the County Court House had been chosen for tho spot were Captain Blinn was to “hold forth” ; on account of a thick grove of small Pines, and a rock-spring oftho purest water, which buretod from tho glebe hill side, and dribbled into a stream below, that worked several grist mills, in hearing. On the top of the hill, a rustic stage was constructed ; und in front trunks of trees wore placed in parrullel lines, flanking the stage on cither side; and near the spring, a green pine booth iinbowered tho long dinner table. A numerous assemblage of Men, Women and children, demonstrative of thu Patriotism of citizens, sensible of the blessings, and priv ileges secured to them oil this day, seemed seriously disposed to perpetuate its celebra tion to the last period of their existence. It being understood that Captain Blinn was on the way, and would soon be there, Lieu tenant Outlaw by a sudden jerk, nourished a dragoon sword out of its rusty seabburd, and striding into the middle oftho road; call ed out in a surprising audible voice; “Oh yes 1 oh yes! all you. who belongs, to Jvspin jilinn's Kmnpne.turn out nil fuul in lino long tliis fetich yer, to sulloot tha orrittnr ns hu kums kros3 the branch yoml'-r—”. Ijcre wa8acauso of stir and bustle in downright earnest for them: Jitnmoy Raffle in si hop, step and a jump, planted himself on the ex treme right,.as thu “point of nnpui.” “Form tho lino mighty quick yer I tell you,” bawled Ned Outlaw “for yonder t-uins tho orrittur.” In an instant all rushed forward und accom plished something resembling a crcscnt.— “♦Stepback thnr on tho rite, leastwise on the left I should say ; for a buddy’s monstrous ap to be put to a nonsplush, bout this yer rite an left biznpss ; becaz my right is your left, an your rite is my left.” This prodigious discov ery evidently raised Lieutenant Outlaw so much in the estimation oftho company, and increased his own confidence, that he vocifer ated in a most commanding tone, “propar min to do aritp peurt motion—uttinshun !— tenshun I say’all round tliar; and his small black eyes twinkled with animation. “ Well now I reckon you had as good not be in sichaplagy hurry; for I’ve tangled my spur into Gimme Rattle’s britches” muttered Sergeant Spriggpis ; ami as lie extricated tho unlucky spur, said “drotmoGim if you dent look shnrp, i’ll give you a spriilling chug with lny rifle hut—you kut sieli a terrible sight, of covortious, a buddy kaint. keep you of on tliar heels.”—“ Silence in the ranks—tenshun 1 way once more—fur I hunt no great pinion of so much of the sumo thing”: and to their e- tcmal praise he it said, they were ns erect ns a Haplmg—“ sholder phirelocks,” screamed the Lieutenant. “ Thaisr.ordin to ole Stew- bang,, muttered Sergeant SprigginH “ an I bn twinged if i’ll put phirn in my lock to please any Slewbang, bceuz my rifle* lias a rail flint and steel lock and rolls out the sparks at ev ery drog, fit to ketch a quarter hii half quarter gmno tribblo rf, battlo powder, fixed of by oieJupong or Julup, I dono which, speshally for haire triggered Rifles: an it uiritthe word by a long gap, Unpin Biin giv out. at Ins mus. ter, ho I amt a guino to do any sieli muslum, for I'd as soon throw up my kummiswhn for fiaggent as to do tlm thing wrong” : and by a swing of his floot, he kicked Ins rifle butt fioino (oct out of lino. “ Silence in the ranks thar, or i'll be down pun some on you as quick as a duck upon n juno-hug” snuiuled tlm Lieutenant. “ Now tlmrs two to play at that gumo Ned Outlaw, on I reckon it taint the CMicHt job you iver umlertuck to jump on me, tho’ Irio’H you’r reasonable sturdy” grumbled Hob Sprigging whose Southom blood began to bo u little curdled with that oftho snapping turtle. ... “ Pm sprizod Saggant Spriggings to hear you grutnblo at sich a size, on sieli a cusiou” was the mild rebuke of Lieut. Outlaw, who had boon convinced by a moment's reflection of Ids unfttshionablo preference to his old ac quaintance Boron Stubon, and his unmilitary und rash threat ;for he did not hear tho saucy banter thrown out, by tho crabbed Sergeant; or the warm temperament of thoOutlaws would never have cooled down until sometime after u desperato rencounter. “Some on you down tliar, has your guns kross your sholder in place of stuntindicular, rite up an down, bo sholder arms;” and the Lieutenant exemplified the motion with wonderful ^clat, by means of his long dragoon hanger. In tho mean while our orator rode up with in u. few paces of thq right, when tho Lieuten ant called out, make ready monstrous peart! —take dod home!—phirc—pnm—snap—-bam —fizo—powo—rattled gun after gun, until the whole line was passed by tho orator, whose mettlesome pony, floundered and patched, dashed und snorted, to little or no purpose; for Ramey Blinn was still on her, and sat as stately in his saddle, as though he had grown tlu ro; and when was ever a Georgian thrown by his spirited nag, while she kept her feet, and he iiis stirrups; like tho stout Duke of Water loo. FRIDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 23. From Nciv-Yonu.—By thu arrivul yesterday of tho bloop Augusta, wo received New York papers to the 15th inst., and by the schooner Oregon, to Saturday last. Tho following uroilio only articles of news they afford The shipFahius, Captain Russell, sailed from New-' York for Cadiz on tho 15th inst., with tho Hon. C. P. Van Ness, Minister to Spain, and family,his relative,and two servants, as passengers. Don Hernandez do Nojjucz, late Counsel General of Spain in tho United States, has been appointed by his Catholic Majesty, Post Master Geuerul of Cuba. A letter from Smyrna of the 9th of August, after en umerating tho various successes of tho Russians adds “ The Turks have been completely routed, and the troops which arc continually deserting, commit the great est disorders. The Government lias been trying to or ganize a levy “ en masse,” but tho people show no disposition to inarch. The ambassadors of France and England are continually in conference with each other and ut the Porle. Grand Councils arc held daily, when the Sultan is often present. Thus, you sue, tho Rus sian? are not far from Constantinople. I shull not be surprised if, in tho course of another month, we should hear of their arrival at tho Capital. Extract of another letter—Tljo English squadron sailed on tho Gtli.—'Tho Russian squadron was seen near Tenedos.” From Mi'lcira,—Letters from Madeira to the 3d of September, received in New York,; talc that atl'uirs in that island were’ by no means settled. A man-of-war stationed (hern was several days in rebellion for w ant of pay. An Englsih frigate from St Michaels brought the glorio’us news oftho defeat oftho Miguehtcs at Tercci- ra, adding, that tho linc-of-battic-ship Don John VI. was at St, Michael's condemned, buing entirely unfitted •lor service. The Miguclilcs at Madeira were in great, trouble. Several outrages had been committed at St- Michaels upon American vcssl*, and the Miguelitta say that while thic United Stales exist us a free nation, tho throno and thu alter will never stand firm. Tho Consti tutionalists, on the other hand, aro waiting to sco how tho Amcricnufgovemmcut will bear such insults, and whether Gen. Jackson wifi rest satisfied with a simple restitution ofihe vessels and tho payment of damages. Lattttfrom France.—By the packet Homy IV at N York, liavro dates aro received to the 1st Sept. They of course contain no later political intelligence than our latest English papers. M. de Chateaubriand has sent Ins resignation to the King, which has been promptly accepted. Ho had re- quested aprivatc audience to explain his motives—but it was refused. Tim following is the only Commercial intelligence published of interest hero. Havre, Aug. 31.—Riff.—Tho purchases within the last few days consisted of521 tierces 55 brls at 19f to -‘ifhO per 50 ko.dnty paid from very crd’iy to good.

Citv Council.—A regular meeting of Council wan held yesterday—present the Muyor, Aldermen Shcftall, Slack, Owens, Welinun, Cuylcr, Waring, Brown und Candry. Tho resolution requesting tlm Mayor .to prepare memorial to the Legislature, having for its object the reduction c»f the salary oftho Judge oftho Court efCom- moiti'lcas uni Oyer ami Terminer, was rejected as fol lows j Frar—Aldermen Shcftall, Owens, Shick and Wei- man. iVi/yx—Aldermen Cuylcr, Brown, Waring and Gnu- dry. There being a tie/ the Mayor voted against the reso lution and it was lost. A bill was rend the first time, limiting tho time of ab sence from tho City, of Port Wardens, and the Officers of Council, to thirty days, without leave of absence, tin der penalty of forfeiture of office. An amendatory ordinance was passed instrurtiug the Marshal and CiiyCanstablcs.tu .seize and Bell nil arti cles exposed for sale by venders of small wares without license—and authorising tho Mayor or cither of tho Al dermen to commit ihu oilVndcr to Jail, until payment of three dollars und costs. A communication was received from tho Board of Health requesting Council to puss nti Ordinance, rc- quiriui! persons keeping Boarding or Lodging llotr.i-s between tho 1st of Apr j nml the 1st of November, to report to the Board ofHcalth or the Coinmittco of the Ward, the name of every sea-faring man, .boarder or transient person, wjio shall bn sick in the house within 12 hours after each cairn of such sickness, under penalty of a fine, and to coin pel such keepers of Boarding and Lodging Houses to give bond and security for tho ex penses that might he inclined by tho dentil ol'siich per son, if at tlm recommendation or tho Board or Ward Committee, he is not immediately removed to tho Hos pital. Tho reurton given for tho present application is, that during the summer months, individuals aro carried in a dying stnte to tho Hospital froip Sailor Boarding Houses, merely to avoid the payment of funeral ox- petinc:«, when the lives of mnny might behaved, if proper measures woro’odojitqd, Tho communication was re ferred to tho llonllh Committee, with power to report hy hill or otherwise. A Hotelier was fined ft»r retailing Venison at his ntnll, llio Ordinance requiring persons bringing tlm sumo to markut,to sell cither at his curl or at a public stall. Tlm Charleston papers of Tuesday, stain that tlm Southern Mail Carrier hail arrived tho preceding evening without (ho Mail—an-1 that iiocauio was given for the failure. Launch.—A pilot boat of a superior model was yesterday launched from tho Ship Yard of Messrs, Will ink fit Wood. In compliment it our distinguished follow-citizen, tho Attornoy Gencril of tho United States, she is named tho “BEiiHltN.’j We have alreo- dy Uio Tattnall, among other tiio vessels of this class—but if wo uro governed by tho association ofnoniM, know of none in tlm world which can stand higher than thoso two in tho opinions of this community—and none in which wo would rather confide, wheu in danger of breakers or a leu short*. Wo omitted to announce in duo season ccrtuin impor* taut changes about to be made in the Cabinet ut Wash ington, on tho authority of tho National Journal—such us tho retirement of Mr. Eaton fioinlhu Department of War, Mr. Branch from that of tho Navy, &c.,-Hut our regret is rather lessened by tho positive contradiction of tlm Telegraph oftho same afternoon—sweeping away the whole arrangement at a word. Tho oirorSs .of the Journal to assist iu tlm hotter organization of tho ad ministration, aro really treated by it with a neglect which must bo mortifying^to a degree, to thoso wlia labor so Indcfutigably and disinterestedly for its improvement— That tho members oftho present Cabinet will neither resign their ollices, nor atteud to its gentle admonitions, must bo truly distressing, and deserves all tho sympa thy wo have to spare for its editor or editors, if indeed the number of them do not rcduco tho portion to bo shar ed by each to so small as quantity os.to render it of no value. It was stated tho other day by tho same paper, that Mr. Van Bubkn was at Richmond, of course for politi cal purposes of his own. But tlm fact wc learn from the Telegraph, Is, that except a short visit to mo Mr. Cah- holi. and Mr. M’Lean, Mr. Van Buuen has not been absent from the District of Columbia, sinco ho entered his duty as Secretary of State, If some ingenious in ventor would apply himself to the production of a win nowing apparatus, by which thu truth might bo obtained from any quantity of assertion in our warm partisan prints, he would, if successful, confer an important ser vice on tho reasonable of all parties, and deserve to be immortalized by ail honest, and well meaning news mongers in search of truth, a« we profess to bo, After Mahmoud, tho Turk, who between ourselves and the reader, has lost a large portion of our goodopin- ion by the scurvy manner in which ho has suffered him self to bo trculcd by Diebitsch und his Cousacks, Sam Patch is without doubt, the Lion‘of the Day. By a semi official account of thu lato celebration at Niagara, our hero was there, andas usual “covered himself with glo ry',” and foam, hy a leap from a ladder ono hundred and twenty-fivo feet high, at the foot of tho pfeoipico below Goat Island. Soma delay oceurre J in consequence of an accident to a chain, during a part of which, the crowd were exposed to a pitiless ntcrniofr iin ; but in due time, Sam was on ti e spot, and leaped “all accoutred as he was” in a white dress, into the boiling and hobbling ba sin below*. There it appears hu ducked and dived and dived and ducked, until it was actually feared 1io had gone to join the shade ofMorgan, in the post-ash kettle which it is said, it navigates the Rapids and Falls ; hut after a sufficient time spent in these marine gym nastics, buffeting the waves w ith lusty sinews, tho victo rious Patch returned .triumphantly to tho shore where ho was received hy huzzas and shout*, almost rivalling the thunder # of old Niagara. Although tho grand blow up of part of Table UiN:k, wua not carried into effect, rtome other explosions were made for the benefit of the sight-seekers, the noise of which, compared to that of the Full, appears tu have been like the explosion of an India cracker hy the side of a park of forty-two pound ers—and the bedraggled zpcfta.orr returned tu t\vir homes very touch of the «-pii.i->n that try had bom, uid» the exception ui’ the ft.nl vf the iiumurtu! Sam, c-j.ifu.u.d- ly hoaxed. The late foreign iicwh has hud tlm effect to depress the prices of Wheat and Flour, both in tho New York and Baltimore markets. In Baltimore, wheat on the i-llli was at $1,05 a 1,08 per bushel, and although thu supplies were quito limited, the market was dull ut these rates. In New York on thu 13th the price of Flour was depressed to $51-2. Tlm copy of an otlieiul decree is published in tho Washington Telegraph, hy which it appears that, tho National Treasury of Peru, being enable to meet its or dinary domestic expenditures, and being deeply involved for arrears of tho sime, ‘‘ tho prohibitory law of the 11th Juno of last year, respecting importations of foreign merchandise, subject to tho payment sf 90 per cent, and others therein mentioned, is suspended, it not hav ing been productive oftho dosirablo cuds which had in duced Congress to sanction tho same.” The opening oftho Chesapeake and Delaware Canal, was to h&vo been celebrated at the Canal, on Saturday last. A proccsssion of vessels was to leave Dela ware City at 10 o’clock, A. M., proceed to the Chesa peake through thu western outlet Locks, and return again to the city. The public was invited to join in thu celcbrnlion. A great concourse of pooplu, andu largo iiumbur of voxels aud boats, were expected to givo interest to the cercmuiiy. - < From Cvracoa.—-Wo are indebted to Copt. Bourne, oftho ship Douglas, for Cura- coa papers to the 19th September. .A letter from Panama, which wo presume expresses the feelings of an individual rather than the community, says,— “Wo have presses, types, and paper-—to no purpose—none dare even speak—his free dom, properly, and life being in danger—the political inquisition revenges more and worse than it did under tho Spaniards!! Tho in habitants of this Isthmus arc all wishing to shake otf the yoke of oppression, and cease to bo the slaves of Bolivar and his servile sol diers. Many and many ties bind tho Pana- mcniami to Jamaica aud to Euglund, while none, none at all to tho present Colombia— they all wish to their heart to becomb English colonists, or protegees*. I la! dear Sir, if you could only ascertain, through your valuable papor, the opinion of your Government, and encourage them in their warm wishes, you would rccoivo immortal gratitudo fro: • tho Panamanians, and would render great service indeed to your Country, and in particular to Jamaica. The situation of Panama is impor tant both in apolitical and cummeurcml point of view—only show yourself disposed, abun dant materials will he sent you—wc only want your cucourngcntcntCom. From IIam nun an.Pavers, translated for the New York Gazette:—dt seems by the advices of travellers and private letters from tho provinces of the interior of Russia, that the forces of this large empire are still more developed sinco tho return oftho Emperor. The roads leading to tho Dnieper are cov ered with now recruits. The heat is very great, and the columns mostly march during the night and rest during tho day: each co lumn has a proportionuto number of wagons and carts for the baggage, and for thoso that feel tired or fatigued. Every care is taken for their comfort, morQ so titan formerly, consequently the now sol dier goes with high spirits to Iris destination, To raiso their courage st ill more, they are carefully informed of all the advantages ob tained by their brothers in arms in the field, which :« often dono in a solemn manner. By all advices, the Russians consider this war as one of high national interest, and tho final result of it as not. to bo doubled, notwith standing a few reverses which occasionally may occur. Constantinople, Aug. 1st.—A new frigate of 04 guns was recently launched at the arse nal. A ship of 80 guns did not succeed, and a great many people wore wounded—it was with great difficulty that tho hull could bo saved. mmL® njewsb High Water atTybee s do. Savannah t i 4 48 6 18 Tin* Miixiuaii Correo de la Frederucion, of tho 17th August, says that there was not a rial in tho public trea sury. This, at a titno when tho nation is invaded, is an unfortunate state of affairs. Voluntary contributions, however, have supplied a portion of thu necessary sup plies recently. John Baptist, a nun of color, has boon indicted for pirury, by the Grand Jury, before tho United States Cir cuit Court, sitting in Trenton, (N. J.) and is to lie tried at the next term of the Court. Ho wart recently ar rested in the County nfCupo May, oil suspicion ofhav- ing committed the crime fur which ho is indicted. Thu Westmoreland Rank at Grcniicsburg, Pennsyl vania, has failed—ft is expected to pay 25 cunts to tho Dollar. Tho Corporation of New York intend to appropriate n part of what was tho old Ahnshouso, and inoro recent* ly has bcu:i devoted to various literary and scientific So- duties, as a house of detention, for prisoners who may Lo arrested for trial. At present, those who arc thus in the eye of tl»v law innocent, tire emilined in the Bride well, sometimes for weeks, among criminals, some of (Item of thu deepest die. This is a praiseworthy im provement. Tho subscription hook for tho National Bank, author ised at Urn last session of the Legislature, was opened at New York on thu Kth inst. but tho total umoiint subscrib ed was only one-third of the sum required by tho net to constitute the capital, ono million of dollars. Thu liriL. uro is attributed to tho General Bank Law. Tho Journal ofScionco, edited hy Professor Sti.i in \n, ofYalo College, in behalf of which an nppcnltu Uio pub lic was some tiniu sinco made, has received 250 subscri bers in consequence, being considerably more than tho uumber required for its continuance. An old bachelor of twenty, at Albany, Ims recently boon compelled to pay 600 dollars, hy duo courso of law, for having imposed upon tho youthful inOxpcrlunco of little Miss of/ort.y-onr, by promising her mnrriago, and then refusing to rccoivo her as per contract, {jo young gentlemen pray lake warning, Tho St areotypn Fotmdury of Messrs, Baker fit Thurs ton, nn Fort Hill, Boston, took firu and was nearly des troyed, on the night oftho 10th inst.

The hopes of relief which were en tertained a short time since have proved fallacious. The epidemic had not spent its fury at the time supposed ; it was only quies cent for a moment, for it speedily returned wit it. if possible, increased malignancy.

Suicide.—New York, Oct. 13.—A coro ner’s inquest was hold on Snturduy in the Bridewell, upon the body of Eliza Tripler, tho woman who was on Sunday lust charged with having entered a house in Second street and stolen $400. Two slips of paper were, after her death, found in her bosom, on ono of which the fol lowing words wore written. “ My dear sis ter, pardon my rash deed ; it is to spare you ail from disgrace. I entrust my children to your care, and I hope you will bo a mother to the babe.” Upon tho other was expressed a wish that soma money which she owed for sewing should he paid, and a hope tlmt her husband would receive 8 or $10 from a per son whom she named. It appeared in evidence that she was ac customed to use laudanum as a stimulant, and lmd it brought to her two or tiiren times by a black woman, employed about the bridewell in white washing and other like services ; it appears that this woman brought in 15 cents worth at two different times. One oftho witnesses swore I hat the deceas ed told her in conversation a few days since, tlmt she would rather put an end to hereof than go before tho court; this witness also swore to having seen her write upon ono of the slips of paper produced. Tho exact titno at tylrich she took tho laud anum, could not bo ascertained; the feinnlo who slept in the bed next Iter’s on awakening about 5 or (I o’clock, A. M. found her arm cold aud lying across her face, and immed iately made an alarm. Dr. Smith was sent for, and tried different remedies for her re covery, but without effect.; she lived until about 8 o’clock, A. M. but never spoke from the time her illness was discovered. • The physicians who examined tho body, testified that her death was caused hy laud anum. Thu Jury accordingly returned a verdict of suicide. Wc understand that a small difference of opinion, us to the exercise oftho power of re moval or appointment in tho clerkships oftho offices subordinate to tho different Heads of Departments oftho General Government, lma resulted in an inquiry ns to the cuuso of the romovul, which was announced some days since, of Mr. W. Steuben Smith from the Second Comptroller’s (Mr. Hill’s) Office, in winch ho hud boon employed by Mr. Craw ford, nt that time (1822) Secretary of tho Treasury.
