rode to the Trustees house, found no one 1
present to answer our inquiries, and pro-h
ceeded onward until we came In an en
closure, beyond which stood three or four 1
large dwellings.—At (he door of one of 1
lliem we saluted a venerable man and bene- 1
volcnt looking woman ; we inquired for an
early friend who was now a member of this
community; an answer was given in tones '
ol kindness.---With a look of great tranquil- 1
ity and sweetness the woman added--- I
“ dost thou know him ?” He was further <
on, in a village past the grove, on die left :

side oI the road. We could not help ob
serving the neat appearance of the fields
ami the grove in our left.—Every unsightly,
or decaying tree had been carefully convert
« d into fuel, ami nothing remained but the
vigorous am! healthful. We soon saw the
desired village mid took our friend of other
days by the hand.
It is impossible to des nibe (he air of tran
qudity and Comfort that diffuses itself over
n Shaker settlement. It is no mallei wlmt
the enemies of such peaceful, unollending'
communities may say about them. The
acuteobserver of human manners will testi
•y lor them that they do not live after the
manner ol the world. W c have, seen the'
tNuiis ol the Hlack Veil in Montreal in the
‘■nly impressive ceremony (l t the year in
which the eyes of the populace can be per
mitted to rest upon them; they were the pale
victims of celibacy, and tticlr countenances
discovered traces of the entire non-intei
course of conversation Whh the other sex ;
(heir minds were lonely and their looks
lonely.
It is not thus with the Shakers ; (he two)
sexes together bear the burden, it burden it
ma J ‘* e * °f celibacy ; they enliven its dull ]
tmss by the amenity ol their intercourse
with each other— and tins intercourse is, in
deed, much less restricted than is generally 1
supposed. A stranger may not in termed'
1:U ' v, lh those allectionate friendships and
pure platonic enjoyments that may spring
up, under what the world perhaps falselv
e dls an overwhelming obstacle to earthly
happiness. The union of these people,j
their timlonn kindness to each other and'
the singularly benevolent and lender ex
pression ot their countenances, speak a
stronger language linn their profession*.
We wore hospitably entertained in theii
neat and plain dwellings. I'ea was taken

done by one ot the sisters ol the communi

Ihe “ alhliated presses” at the seat ot
'.(government, depending on the success of
l ' le P*’<»lligale and base, are faithful in then
i'7 af| d practice to their employers. It the
i n 11 u'Tice of the corrupt and die venal can

acter of the meanest sectional prooinciu/s,
aided hy a couple of Hartford Convention
prints at New-York, are about revivin'' the
old warfare of the Indians within the limits
(he State of Georgia, which the late co
'tton administration got up with so much
P"*ing effect three or four years ago.
Hartford Convention men have ever
d with the enemies of the country ; dur
h lie last war, they sympathized not only

tml murder on the Georgia frontier
• '"7 took part with Arbuthnot, Ambrs
d other agents of an enemy govern-'

I t.loio Convention party shoqld continue
" e j'i’ MUBe U| u cause of enemies within our
nnlcrs and to create a false sympathy for
(nose whose case deserves no commisera
liun.
Ine truth is, the Indians, if let alone,
"oi.ld present no obstacle to that march of
civilization in the south which is, and has
J ‘ ,I1 P'uciised trom time immemorial in
every section of the United States. Why
should a lair proportion of the original Uni
ted States a portion nut less fertile than
any Other of tins Union —be suffered to re
main unsettled and unproductive ? Whv
slmold the aboriginals be persuaded, by un
principled whites, located among them for
the, very purpose ot speculating on their
wants out ol the motioy furnished hv the
government, to deny to this government the
use ol that, sml which can be of no more
value to them than so much soil westward
<d the Mississippi ? The reason is, simply
--■these speculators will not have a* good
an opportunity to make money out of the
in ‘ t--iides ol the Indians, and the money
furnished by the government in the new po
sitmn as limy would in the old.
The faith of the United States, for a va
bjiiblu consideration, had long stood pledged
to the state of Georgia to procure for that
t t ii<> the title to the Indian wilds within its
: ancient prescribed limits. During the last
administration, commissioners were appoint
', by the government to negotiate with the
nchiHs for the purchase of these lands ; and
, under t/ns authority those commissioners
I !! 1 . ,nrm “ tn ‘ a 7 mutually satisfactory.
,j Hus treaty, however, did not suit the ob
r>eis ol some white men, who had desi-ned
(to make fortunes out ot the purchase7no
uct ; it was too much calculated to benefit
the Indians, and not the speculators. These
attempted to raise the standard
disaffection; and m this attempt there
'* b ' u ,uo much reason to believe they were
encouraged by tbe countenance of the then
executive of the United States, who prefer-'
i rei ‘ 1 a war with the Indians to a peaceable
j settlement ol tbe diffu ulties. This execu.-
tive, lor the sake ot exciting an undue pre
judice in the north against the constituted
authorities of the state Georgia, threa
tened to call out against her an armed force,
Si 7 "iS- » e «us prompted to Hus course by a
responsibility higher than that he owed to
the people. »v this unnatural interference,
in which the government of the United
Suites presented the singular spectacle of
exerting itself to stultify "its own acts, and
to disgrace ns own ago,its for i s own dis
advantage, the (,e.»ty utilled by its own
Senate, was set aside bv negotiating a new

signal for an “ unprincipled opposition” to

Young Turk.- The Saco Palladium Mites
that there has been in that village for sever
al clays past, a young Turk, who says he wan
d)oni at Damascus in Asia, calls himself Ab
dallah Hatned, and is about 18 years old.
ills mother was a German woman whom his
lather, formerly in the army of the Sultan
had married. Ife has a brother a merchant,
at Damascus, who trades by caravans with
Smyrna. Abdallah sailed from Smyrna
auout 8 months since as clerk of a vessel
commanded by a Greek, bound to St, Barts.
~ ' 1 citizen of Saco, who has been
often at that Island, asked Abdallah if he
had heard the name of any merchant at St.
Barts, (where he did not arrive,) he men
tioned the name of a Greek, well known to
this citizen as a trader to Sinvrna. ’Tile
vessel was taken by pirates, and Abdallah
and another youth were set a drift in a boat ;
afterwards taken up by an English vessel,
and carried to Quebec. His companion di
ed at Saint Mary (on the Chaudiere) while
they were travelling towards Maine. His
familiarity with the Arabick and Persian
was satisfactorily tested by a gentleman
skilled in the Oriental languages at Bowdo
in College. Being destitute, he modestlv
asks tor a little assistance oo his wav from
those who converse, with him. He'disco
vers an anxiety to return to his native coun
try, and for that purpose is travelling to
Boston, that he may there find passage.
He is a rigid Mahometan ; expresses boldly
his opinion of Christians, and their religion,
which ol course is riot favorable, but seems
grateful for the kindness he has received
from them. He refuses to eat with us, tak
ing his loot! alone, and abstaining, like »
true Mussulman, from the use of potk.
