Sunday morning, about! one o’clock, the land was distinctly seen! close aboard, ami then every effort was made! to wear the ship off, which unluckily did! not succeed, as there was a strong tide set-' ting, and ills generally imagined the captain) mistook the lights lie observed.

One season, however, either the.de t mauds tor a Uluislmas goose, or Ihe mid- I : nigl't depredations of the Fox and Hie Foul- i , mart had become so numerous, that the ipoor old g inder was left without a sin gle helpmate-- a misfuttune which he de ■ ploreti day and night by many a doleful and sorrowful note. The e affectionate repin- ■ ■ nigs did not escape the observation of Mr. 1 Uraik’s servants, and orders had just been ■ issued loi replacing the extirpated b.red of . geese, when the widowed biped suddenly , disappeared, to the great regret of the fann i ly. One blamed the Fox,another the Foul- I mart, and a third the Gipsies ; but the event ; . proved that they were all mistaken ; tor, ' t one morning as Mr. Craik was entering the i breakfast parlour, he heard a well-known 1 1 c ackle, and immediately exclaimed, ‘ If the 1 old Stag had not been drowned, or worried, j ■ I could have sworn that that was his cry.’ ■ i| T’he call was immediately repeated, and on \ going out to the lawn, or on looking out at ] • j the window, v:r. U. beheld the identical old t ■ gander, surrounded by a whole Hock of bon- ! jny lady geese, whose approach he was thus 'proudly announcing, and whose wings were , | still dripping with the Urine of that element ' through which he had taught them to pilot! their way for a distance id' at least twelve [ or fifteen miles. This singular occurrence J : naturally excited a good deal of interest, . and alter making every inquiry, it appeared ] that the gander had either been carried away i by the force of the tide, or had voluntarily ] swam to the opposite shore, where, landing 1 on some English farm, he immediately at- I ■ tached himself to one of the owner's geese, and sojourned with her til! she had hatched ; -a pretty numerous brood.

AVGUSTA: . T UESD AY. M ARCI fl 7 18:25. t The President elect is said to be in much [ perplexity about his Cabinet. Notwithstand f ing the countenance given a few months > since to an Ex-Minister and the Speaker’s opinion of Mr. Crawford’s health, that gen tleman has been warmly solicited to retain Iris post at the Tieasury. Hut he has declined . the invitation. It may be, that not in formed of the policy to be pursued by the ■ new administration, lie will not remain in a i situation, where his exertions, single and un supported, may fail to advance what he be lieves to be the true interests of the’country. Such a motive does him great honour; and it is worthy of remark, that now the fretful ness and malignity of the contest are over, every tongue is employed in doing justice to one of the purest statesmen, that has ever jfigured in this or any other country. Mr. 1 {Adams is believed to be desirous oi' con ■' !iating the friends both of Mr. Cravvfo (Gen. Jackson, and Mr. Forsyth is nu a, .■ !ed for the Department of the Navy (War. Mr. Southard stands in the 1 'the first, although there is a strong d;-., .i --jtion to give him a furlough ; the Post ter General would not refuse, the last and ■he lias “done some service” to the lucky Candidate. Judge M’Cane is said to be | tired of musing over mail contracts and dead ! letters, and Mr. J. W. lay lor—the quon jdam speaker of Journal-blotting memory— ;is willing to undertake the task, uninviting . i |as it is Gov. Dakuouh and Mr. CurveP \ have been talked of for the Treasury, and Mr. Clay lias been asked to turn a deal ear to Mr. Kkemeh’s insinuations, and to walk [into the Office of State.

Mr. Web ster is to he made Attorney General- -if he will have it, of which there are some doubts, and Mr. Wirt is to go to Mexico, or where ever else it may please the President and Fortune to send him. These Reader, are some of the Rumours—volumes would not contain all of them—that reach us throuHi newspapers and letters—and from we gather a belief that Mr. Adams is in deed much puzzled, and that he has “ a rough road” before him. The Senate will convene on the fourth ol March, and will as sist in making the appointments. We shall -mon know therefore to whom (lie prizes in 'he Lottery of Offices ■■re distributed.

Most of our readers remamher Ike principal events of the dis ■isiro.pi campaign, to whn li this work relates, m: I tin decision of ' \ the co trt martini by which General 1 lull was tried. This officer has always considered Ins ease as staadins; in a very unfair and partial lit. lit before the public, and has at hist brou lit fon-'ud what he deemsn correct detail ofull the ir .inactions partainin" to hit connexion with the army. We have in di,position to take any part in the controversy between General Hull and his option <■■lls. nor to revive a subject, which, for -.ln- credit of the country had better be ff.r-i.tti n th..n remembered; yet if we are to juiCe’ simply by the public documents collected and published in these memoirs, we innsl draw the conclusion unequivocally, that he. evas r. quin d by the genera,l government in do what it was moral' ly and physically impossibic that he should no, that he was sur rounded by difficulties which no human a,m y could conquer, and, in short, whatever may have Us his'mistakes of jud-ment in any particular movement, he deserved c t the unqualified cen sure inflicted oh him by the court martial. The trial was evident ly conducted without a lull knowledge „f ail the testimony in bis favor; important documents in the public offices he could not then obtain ; they are now published, an. throw new light on the subject. The precipitancy with which warwus declared, the total want of preparation, and the deficiency of means, afford an apology no doubt to the general government, for nut providing an immediate and adequate defence for the n.-i-lli western frontier; but it is an extremely hard case, lhai an „*c. r should suffer inconsequence of the neglect of higher powers. G oeral Hull has no rh-hi to complain, that his ord-rs were nut s nticiently clear and explicit but bo has a right to complain, that lie was ordered to defend a long line of fruitier; and invade anenemy’s possessions, without I being prodded wiih means to effect such an enterprixe ; and, above alt. 1„ lias a right to c, inplain, that he was formallv core dr; med by a crave military tribunal, for the issue of unfortunate events, as mortifying to Dim in Ihems. Ives as they could possibly be to any other pecs,in less interested, and over which he had no control. W e aim not to defend General Hull ; his defence roust rest on his book; let it l„, conceded Hint he was guilty 0 f niis takes, the question still r -lira, and it was one of vital coos. lquer.ee to the party accused, whether these mistakes may not in the m in he very easily traced to his circumstances, to his confv dent . ectathin of .ndfroni Government, which he never receiv ed. .nd of co operation with other hr:, nehes of the aimy wliic.l m ■ nr look place, and without hath of which there was no possi' hility of his effecting whin wa, required of him. The public documents end letters pnbhsl ed hv him answer this question de cidedly in the affirmative and miglit to produce an impression ot the pnbbc min ' ,t least, far different from that left by the decis ion of lh»t court martial.
