It is consoling to reflect that in the po
litical, as in the physical world—storms
Und tempests although destructive, do not
last long.
We copy with deep i egret the following
paragraph from the Democratic Press :
ANOTHER HERO IS NO MORE!! 1
Sometime since, in consequence of declin
ing health, Commodore M'Danough made
application to the Government of the United
States to be permitted to resign the command
of the Frigate Constitution and return to the
U. States. He also prayed that Ins Physi
cian, Dr. Turk, might be permitted to ac
company him. L»ave was promptly given.
On the 24th of October, Commodore M‘Do
nougli, and Iris son, O'. Turk, Chaplain
Grew, Midshipman Ringgold and several.
United States Sail rrs e;n itrk-* I at Gibrai
ter on board the Brig E livin, bound for
New-York. They had fine weather for a
bout 16 days since which it has been very
boisterous. The Brig was blown off New- 1
York on Tuesday last, and put into the
Capes of Delaware. ' ’
We have just had a visit f-om Dr. Turk,
who informs u.s that on the 10th of Novem
ber, Commodore M Dnnough, died of a Pul
monary Consumption'. His body is on board
the Edwin and will probably arrive in this
city this day. We hope and trust, all hon
or due to Hie illustrious dead, will be shewn
to the corpse of the gallant and renowned
.M'D.mougli ! His wife died a few months
since, and was buried at Middletown, (Con.)
They have left five children, four sons and
a daughter. Where the Commodore will
be buried is not yet known. Dr. Turk prob
ably to-morrow, will accompany die body to
New-York, where he expects to be met by
some of the relatives of the illustrious dead.
There are about twenty sick seamen, from
the Squadron onboard the Edwin, who will
probably be put into our Navy Hospital.— I
The olficers we have named are going to the.’

ADVENTURES OF A NOTE.
On the lOtli inst. a certain house in this
oily, then in good circumstances, called at
f.Jie Manhattan Bank, to take up their note,
which according to their memorandum book,
fell due that day, for §12,500, but <in ap-j
plication at (he Bank; they were assuredj
by the clerk that no such note was titer'e |
they then applied to their endorser to learn!
what Bank it was lodged in, ami wercin-j
formed the Manhattan Bank;' Back they;
Went to the Manhattan, and receiving'thej
same answer as before, they desisted from
any further search. But on the 21st. insf.
they received a notice, that the note had
become due, and was so onthe 16th, but
that it had been entered by the mistake ofj
the clerk as arriving at maturity on the 21st.!
But alas ! in the mean time the house had!
become bankrupt, owing to the misfortune
of a distant firm. Quere. —The endorser
having been by this accident exonerated,
who bead s the loss ?

ONE DAY LATER FRO M EUROPE.
New-York, November 25.
By the ship Samuel Robinson, Choate, .
we have received a file of the Greenock pa
pers to the 15th ofOctober, containing Lon
don dates to the evening of the lUh, one
day later than before received.
The London Morning Chronicle, after,
speaking of the doubtful movements otthe 1
Russian Army of the. South, the visit of in
spection of die Emperor,&c. gives the post-!
script of a letter from a gentleman in the
North of Europe, in the following words j
„ “ Postscript. ---I have justlearnt from good!
authority, that (he Russian Army under!
Wittgenstein, in Bessarabia, have crossed,
the Truth, and commenced hostilities a-|
gain-t the Turks. They have long been;
preparing for tois step, and waited only for!
the slightest pretext to proceed to the ex I
tremilies. This will be the harbinger ofj
hot Work for Europe.”
Mr. Canning has declined interfering]
with the Turkish Government in behalf ot j
an Englishman, named MilTmgon, who en
tered the Greek seivice, and has been taken
prisoner.
Mr Weddle, a master in the British Ar
my, has lately penetrated 200 miles nearer
the South Pole, than any former navigator.
After penetrating several barriers of ice.
hitherto insuperable, he found an open sea
within the Antarctic Circle.

’■ d still they stared, and still their wonder grew,
“ Th it onr small head could carry all he knew.''
Ihe tor of the Chronicle is surelv
seconu . on. Being too inagnaiiimou
to “ tread n a ivonnp he is content sim
ply to dcajt •dm, with a tremendous array
of “ words of learned length and thunder
iag sound.” Will lie oblige us with defini
tions, as correct as that lie lias given of;
“ manslaughter,” of “ analogically, dialo
gically, and choplogically”—of the “ differ
ence between a category and a predica
ment”- and of all the other terms, unin
telligible to the intellect of a “ worm” so
abundant in his last editorial “ communica-
’ The editor is getting wiser, as he
grows older: and if ids intellect continues
to expand, for but a few years, in the same
ratio til at it lias lately dune, he will be
come tlie eighth wonder of tKe world. His
new discoveries are limited to no particular
branch of learning. Ediics and law were
the subjects on which lie first displayed.
He now resorts to more refined matters ;
and gives us new rules oil the subject of
courtesy and etiquette. Hereafter, it is to
he considered the height of indecorum, to
“ laugh” at any thing, emanating from “ that
“august assembly which is’ selected from a
“ mon’g the wisdom and talents of the
“ State.” I hope this amendment in the
code of politeness is not to have a retro
spective operation ; for if it be, a certain
other editor, who a few months since, in
dulged in a little playfulness on the act of ,
the Legislature ordering the “ June term
ol the Inferior Couit of Hancock’county”
to be held qn the “ third Monday in Au
gust, ” is to be considered “ worse than the
“ idiot whom we once saw laugh immoder
ately at the death scene in Richard 111.
when it was supported by the’ transcend- t
“ ant talents of the distinguished Cooke.” 1
| One word more, and I have done with
'Mr. Pi I hope forever. He is not “ ashnm- ;
ed'’ ol the reason he first gave for my omis
sion of a signature. Verily I believe him :
lor from the samples he has given us of mo
desty, self-complacency, I doubt whether
he can be ashamed of anv tiling. •
