Mirror,” and a most excellent number it is,
embellished with two beautiful engravings—
one of them a handsome title page to the
new volume, and the other illustrative of u
most exquiste song of Morris , v •
entitled “ Westward 1 • ‘he .• ntinge*
metit and design of tlje engraving is truly
tasteful, and though we admire the song as
* gem in its way, we are not certain but
there is as muf.fi poetry in the picture as in
the verses. By-tfie-hy. wc are perhaps to
bin me for not commending the “ New Mir
ror” to our readers since our first notice of
it. The truth is, we dor.nt relish Mr. VY il
li,’ subject* of discourse— tlicre is some
thing so friyoious. so effeminate anti foppish
about Willis that we cannot help but find
fault with him, and yet we read him more
and often with better entertainment, than any
other writer in the periodicals. Jiang the
fellow, we don’t like him and we do like
him. With all his dandyism ‘here is an air
of clever sprightlinesa, # sort °f com
plaisance about him that will* Us to b> $?-
sip though we try to stop our cars against
what certainly is pure twattle. We some
times think it a pity that Willis is not
more an American in sentiment—that jtilt
taste is not more in accordance with the re
publican spirit of our people—sot his sake,
and the country’s sake wc think it a pity—
for no wri'er among us at the present day
has it in his power to exert a greater influ
ence upon our literary taste. The worst
misfortune that ever befel him was his trip to
Europe. What a fortune would it have
been to him had he been reared in the wes
tern wilderness—then the Eagle hod never
become a Popinjay.
But it was our intention to speak of the
“New Mirror,” which we desire to com
mend to the reading public, as the most wor
thy light periodical of the day. The Mir
ror is published weekly in pamphlet form of
sixteen large octavo pages, illustrated each
week with a handsome steel engraving.—

THE FOREIGN N ’.WS.
Bv the arrival of tiie steamship Acadia,
Liverpool papers to the 19th of Seplem
• her have been received. Jhe most impor
tant item of nows contained in these papers
is the account of the > destruction of the 1
> American Steam Frigate Missouri, by fire,
! on the night of the 26th of August, While
• at. anchor in lite Boy of Gibraltar. From
the dispatches of Captain Newton to the
Government, it appears that iie at rived at
Gibraltar in seventeen days from Norfolk
and five from Fyal. After coming to an
chor in the Boy, he went on shorn with Mr.
j Cushing, onr Minister to China, to visit the
i American Consul, by whom they wore con
ducted to the house of the Governor of the
Island. While on shore a messenger an
nounced to him that the Missouri was on
fire. Repairing immediately to the spot he
found the intelligence but too true, and soon
discovered that all effort to save the noble
• vessel must prove unavailing. Every e::er
.tion was made by the officers and o:ew of
fl’:e Missouri, who were promptly assisted
by those of the British man-of-war Malabar,
camr.aatided by Sir George Saitorious, and
bylhe engines and citizens of the Island, un
der the personal direction of the Governor,
Sir Uobeit Thomas Wilson; but all that
cmikl he done was to save the trunks con
tainin': the diplomatic papers of Mr. Cush
ing and some $50,000 in specie. The fire
having -obtained complete mastery, the crew
were rii.mpejled to abandon the noble ship,
and watch writh painful emotions the terrific
progress of Lite devouring element. The
GiUabar Chrunii !e tints describes the scone
as viewed from the walls of the town —“ The
line wall wi s crowded until a very late hour
with spectators, anxiously watching the fate
of the noble .ship. The sight was awfully
grand ; until tfie masts at length fell over
| hoard, the tracety of her spars and shrouds
! standing out in bright relief against the dtnk
| sky, was beautiful. The whole rock was
| as light as day; and probably such a sight
has not been witnessed in the bay since the
conflagration of the (Inatirrg batteries in the
memorable siege.”
Various surmises are madiV by the French
and English papers respectin g the cause of
the file. The Paris papers i usinuute that
the burning of the Missouri may be attribu
ted to British jealousy, excited by the ap
pearance of such a superior American Fri
i gate in their waters, while some of the En
j glial papers would have it thought that the
i \ , .vas purposely fired by someone of
me crew. The account given by C.tpt.
Newton is, that the fire was occasioned by
the breaking of a demijohn of turpentine
in the Engineer’s Store-room. The turpen
tine coming in contact with the heated iron,
j ignited,’ from “which the flames spread
ong. : ‘.he ship. Be this ns it may, the
destruction of the Missouri is a most lamen
table disaster, and one which hundreds of
thousands of dollars will not repair. She
was, perhaps, the finest vessel ever built in
this country, and was the first American
Steam Frigate that ever made her appear
ance in Europe. Capt. Newton has char
tered aves el for the return of the crew to
America, and Mr. Cuahinc, las taken pas
sage for Alexandria in the British Steamer I
Oriental.

fine hat, and a gown and a pair of gloves,
(we don’t remember the precise kind,) and.
wo take it for granted, she being a woman,

French, who on meeting her Majesty grasp

before she had time to faint, if she wanted
to. Albert gasped for breath in his amaze
ment and those present thought the King
had mistaken her Majesty for her maid.—
Tiie papers'sny such conduct was very un
civil in the King, and showed a rather poor
appreciation of the Queen’s breeding, who
they say has been brought up as well as
most folks. It certainly was taking a very
great liberty—and we should not be much
surprised if the Purlesvous and the John
Bulls were to kick up a fuss about it yet. —

other depredations. On one or two occa

TURKISH INTOLERANCE DESTRUCTION OF
THE NESTOR!AII*.
A correspondent of the “ London Morn
ing Chronicle,” gives an account of the to
tal annihilation of that interesting and inof
fensive sect of primitive Christians, the Nes
toriatts, by the Turks. It would scent from
the history given of this lamentable affair
that, the destruction of the Nestnrians is
chargeable to tbe fanatical zeal or sectarian
jealousy of the different Christian sects who
have of late years sought to establish tbe in
fluence of their respective Churches among
them. For upwards of fourteen centuries
tbe Nestorians, secure in their mountain
fastnesses, have resisted the Mohammedan
power, and preserved their primitive reli
gion in its original polity. Only a few years
since Dr. G rant, att American Missionary,
succeeded in entering, their country, the
first western traveler that had ever obtained
access to them. The object of his mission
was to establish schools among them, in
which design lie succeeded, and soon ob
tained conaiderahle influence among them.
But no sooner was Dr. Grant’s success
known to the Christian wot Id. than the Ro
man Catholic Missionaries at Mosul, sup
ported by rite Ftench political agents, en
deavored to counteract his growing influ
ence. The English High Church becoming
also jealous of American encroachments,
sent the Rev. Mr. Badger into tbe field of
contention to promote the Ptisey interest's,
since which time the Roman Catholic, the
Poseyhc and the American, have waged an
open warfare for the ascendancy. The
Americans having already acquired consid
erable influence, acted only on tbe defen
sive. while the two other parties sought to
eject them, but were prevented by their
mutual enmity ftotn acting in concei t with
- each other. Reports were at length put in
circulation that the Americans were assist
ing the Nestorians to build forts in their
tnomi'ain*. which of course excited the ap
prehensions of the Pacha of Mosul, who
constantly received accusations from the con
tend ing parties,each against the other,tending
to increase his alarm. Mr. Badger pointed
out the danger of Roman Catholicism and
French influence in the mountains, while
the French represented the danger of l’u
sevism and English influence The conse
quence of all this was the formation of a
combination between the Pacha of Mosul
and Several powerful Kutdislt chiefs for the
extermination of the entire Nestorian race.
The united troops, without any other pro
vocation, penetrated into their midst, burnt
their villages and chinches, destroyed the
crops an.l put the inhabitants of both sexes
to the sword. One account stales that the
Patriarch had escaped to Mosul and taken
refuge in the British vice consulate, and that
five of his brothers were slain, his mother
cut in half, and his sister most horribly mu
tilated, by the ruthless barbarians. The
number slain is not known. The popula
tion was estimated at 100,000. “Neither
age, sex nor condition were spared,” says
tiie writer—“all were sacrificed by the sav
age Turks !” Thus have the innocent Nea
toriuns fallen victims to the intrigues of de
signing politicians, who cme among them
is the guise of Christians, professing to be
tbe ministers of Christ.
An American Christian, who had, when
under the influence of strung drink, pro
claimed himself a musselnuin, hut who af
terwards renounced the fiiitli of the false
prophet, was beheaded in one of the princi
pal streets of Constantinople) on the 23<1 of
August. Should Tutkish intoieiprice end
outrage have the effect to forfeit British in
fluence, and deprive that power of the sym
pathy of Christian Europe, how long would
it bo before the Emperor of Russia would
place bis foot upon tiro neck of the Porte?
A century ago Turkey maintained the posi
tion of isolation and defiance to the Chris
tian world—but that day lias gone by, and
the Crescent must holds its place in the so
cial political galaxy nr set fur ever !
(£/"* The elections are over and nearly
all the returns have come in, exhibiting a
triumphant majority fur the Whigs. Wiiat
is a little remarkable, every body seems to
be perfectly satisfied with the result. The
YVbigs desired it —end the Democrats ex
pected it, and can give the very best reasons
in tjie world why their ticket was beaten.—
We occasionally meet with some who re
mind us of Mr. Stephens’ anecdote of old
London. Wh*n you would commiserate
them by expressing your regret that their
candidate was beaten, they seem to he sur
prised that you do not know their preferen
ce* better—“ de who ?—de what 1” say
they—l never voted for hiro—haven't voted
that ticket thi* three year.” So it would
have been, doubtless, had victory purched
upon the other banner. There would have
been some to exclaim, “de who? dewhat ?”
who are now loud in asserting their own j
firmness and attachment to princijfle.

Cy* An exchange paper, speaking of lit
tle Vic’s kite coasting voyage of pleasure,
says—“ The new royal Yatcli is what is
termed n clipper, atul Mr. Pesident Tyler
must not feel surprised if, some fine morn
ing before his term expires, he receives a
friendly visit from England’s apirited and
Bight-seeing little Queen.” Just imagine
her, readei, popping in on the old gentleman
with a nose, some morning just before break
fast, and catching the whole breed and gen
eration of the Tylers in their dishabile—
old John, and young John, and little squall
ing John, and Mrs. John and Bob and all of
them. Now, wouldn’t there be a muss ?
Wouldn’t she see sights then 1 We almost
imagine we can hear her exclaim, “ My hvy,
Albert, dear ! is them the Vetoes? Well,
I always thought the Yankee doodles wasn't
no great scratches. M hat ’oriel noses they
’ave got 1” But we don’t think slie’ll come
over before Mr. Tyler’s term expires.
