the election of Mr. Adams, Mr. Clay should be Secretary of State. That the friends of Mr.-A&ms were urging, as a reason to in duce the friends of Mr. Clay to accede to their proposition, that if 1 was elected Presi dent, Mr. Adams would bo continued Secre tary of State, (inuendo; there would be no room for Kentucky.) That the friends of Mr. Clay stated, the West did not wish to separate from the West; and if I would say, or permit any of my confidential friends to say, thattin case I was elected President, Mr. Adams should not be continued Secre tary of State, by a complete union of Mr. Clay and his friends, they would put an end to the Presidential contest in one hour. And ho was of opinion it was right to fight such intriguers with their own weapons. To which, in substance, I replied, “ that in politics, as in every thing else, my guide was principle ; and contrary to the expressed and unbiassed will of the people, or their constituted agents, I never would step into the Presidental chair—and requested him to say to Mr. Clay and his friends, (fori did suppose he lt-.d come from Mr. Clay, although he used the term Mr. Clay’s friends,) that before I would reach the Pre sidental chair by such means, of bargain and corruption, I would sec the earth open and swallow both Mr. Clay and his friends and ^rnyself with him. If they had not confidence in me to believe, if I was elected, that I would f, ail to my aid in the cabinet, men of the first virtue, taDr.t and integrity, not to vote for me.’’ The second day after this communication and reply, it was announced in the newspapers that l\Ir. Clay had come out openly and avowedly in favour of Mr. Adams. It may be proper to observe that in the supposition that Mr. Clay was privy to the •proposition slated, I may have done injustice to him—if so, the gentleman informing me can explain. I am, very respectfully, vour most obedi ent servant, ANDiiEW JACKSON.

Co'onel Ramsay (brother to the Earl of Dalhousie, who arrived a short time since in one of the Liverpool packets) had brought important despatches, with which he im mediately posted off to Montreal; while the Colonel, we knew, was very quietlv drink ing his iced champaigne at the National Hotel, or promenading Broadway! But the Honourable and Gallant Colonel at length moved up to the frontier, and on entering Canada, found all those reports concentrat ed within the columns of one of the news papers, given, we are bound to say, with all the caution, the editor was capable of, from the nature of his materials. The Colonel attacked and routed this body of reports with a short, but pithy letter.—Albion Col. Thomas AT. Randolph (formerly ^Governor of this State) and who was last vear appointed the IT. S. Commissioner for running the Boundary line between Florida and Georgia, has published in the Charlottes ville Gazette an Expose of the circumstan ces which defeated the execution of hi trust.—He states that the Secretary at War hud written to the Secretary of State for a Copy of the Report of F.lliott & Minor Commissioners for running the line in 1800 ; but that no such Report had ever reached him (Air. R.)—that he has never received any communication from Washington, on the subject of the charge committed to him since Dec. 23d, 1S25; “that so was the pleasure of the President, is all that he could gather during a stay of 17 days in Washington ”—of the cause of that silence or of the existence or non-existence of the aforesaid Report, he is entirely ignorant— that the-Governor of Georgia, the Commis sioner and himself considered it best not to run the boundary line, until they were fur- ished with this Report.—Air. S. speaks in very high terms of the President, as well as of the citizens of Georgia. lie declares that “ lie had no difference with any man of Georgia or Florida, while there, that he has anv recollection of.”—There is something inexplicable to us in these transactions— but. if the Report he the only thing wanting to execute this duty, we should suppose that Air. Clay would be better employed in hunt ing it up, or arranging without it. if it be ir recoverably lost, than making an haranguing tour for electioneering purposes. Rick. Enquirer. FOREIGN. The Athenian. In answer to the inquiry, we must.say, we either never have received the communication signed * J.’ or it has escaped both our memory and search, which we think would not be the case if it were a good one.. We have consulted ‘Jo. Inquisitor's’ grandmo ther on the questions he has proposed through us, and she suggests that he defer the indulgence of his curiosity until ho can write with more terseness, and has obtained greater penetration, when likely he will be able to determine his doubts by his ■ lar- nin,’ as she said.—The old laily seemed quite pet tish on being asked such simple questions respect ing her spring time years. FOR THE ATHENIAN*. TIIE CHRISTIAN'S DEATH. Around the Christian’s dying bed, Behold his weeping friends ! A thousand tender tears are shed, While death its horror lends. The bleeding partner of his rest, O’er his cold bosom bends, And tries, in vain, to warm that breast, Which death’s rude tempest rends. His infant offspring grasp his hand— Climb to his failing cheek, And there receive his last command, While yet his heart can speak. Thou dearest hopes ! weep not my fate : 1 go without one sigh: I’ve lived as live the pious great, Who never dread to die. 'MrM’Y improved Four Acre L lage of Athens is for sale.

Peici- ipf’c T pftoi-e ” Ronntipc < From tho selections in the papers of fo reign articles by arrivals via Liverpool, to the 29th May, we extract the following as of the most interest. Nothing has transpired to impair Ihe safe ty and permanency of Mr. Canning’s ad ministration ; nor have we any reason to doubt the full and perfect predominancy of that enlightened Minister’s policy, both now and hereafter. The troops in Portugal re main as described in our former advices ; the head-quarters, and the main body of the army have fallen back upon Lisbon, in con sequence of the diminished incursions and depredations from Spain. It seems to be admitted on all hands, that a negotiation is on foot, for the purpose of fixing the dura tion of their stay in Portugal, oi possibly with a view to their immediate withdrawal from that country. If Spain has given such guarantees to England as satisfies her that she will not repeat her hostile aggressions upon her neighbour; and if, moreover, it has become evident that a decided majority of the Portuguese people are opposed to the Constitution, then it would seem that a Bri tish army would no longer have any busi ness there. The spirit of the treaties be tween England and Portugal, is, that the formcr'dcfends the latter against foreign aggression only ; and the spirit of Mr. Can ning’s policy is that, generally speaking, nations must exercise the right of adhering to that form of government they like best.— These are the obvious features of the case, but we believe that there is another which has been but Utile adverted to—we mean the occupancy of Spain by the French army We suspect Air. Canning will not submit to the evacuation of Portugal, unless Spain is evacuated at the same time. The French are tired of the Spanish affair—perhaps I part with all my earthly joys, My heart does not misgive ; Death only wasting life destroys— The soul will ever live. Live, then, in constant view ef death; His warning voice receive : Live, praying to thy latest breath, That you may ever live. i’HE ATHENS MINSTREL. val’s Poems.

BENJAMIN CLEVELAND, Guardian. July 17th, 1827. Long Rifle.—A countryman the other day. who had been listening very patiently to a detailed account of the murder of six militia men by Gen. Jackson, as told for the thousandth time, by a noisy coalition (nan, was asked what he now thought of Old Hickory—“Why,” said he, let me under stand—where were the men shot?”—“at Mobile ”—“ and where was Old Hickory at the lime?”—“Oh, he was in New-Orleans” — c; Then I think we’ll call him Long Rifle— ^sinoe he brings down his man at 300 miles distance.”—“ Pshaw,” said a wag present, the shot came from John Binn’s Long Loip.” England is not less so of her’s in Portugal and it is not. we think, improbable that boiff armies will depart as soon as the respective governments can find a favourable pretext for withdrawing them. An absolute monarchy moved and instigated by ecclesiastical tyran^ nv seems, unfortunately, the kind of govern ment best adapted to the people of the Peninsula.. For this there is only one reme dy—education ; until this precious blessing diffuses ifls benign influence among the ma jority of the people, they must remain iii their present benighted state at once the scorn and pity of the world. Air. Duponreau, of Philadelphia, has pub lished a note in the National Gazette, cor recting the statement which is now circu lating throughout tae country, that be had succeeded to the place left vacant by the death of Mr. Jefferson in the National In stitute of France. “I have, indeed,” says he, “ been honoured by an election to a place of Corresponding Member to one of the Academics of which the Institute is composed ; but that is not the place occu pied by our illustrious Jefferson. He was one of' only eight members who, by way of I distinction, arc styled foreign associates. This place is still vacant, though nearly a vear lias elapsed since the death ot that great man. which shows how difficult it is to find a fit successor to him, even in Eu rope, and with all the world to choose from.” From Smyrna.—The Boston Palladium has a letter dated Smyrna. April 12. which says—“ The last news from Athens wa&j that Gen. Karaiskaki had arrived at thfe camp of Pheleras. to its relief, but was told weak to attack the Bashaw, who is aha 15000 str.ong. It is generally feared t citadel must fall, as it is said a black flag wa flying upon it. Col. Fabvicr commands it, and as it is well known that no quarter w he given, even if surrendered, the garrison may make a desporate sortie, simultaneous ly with an attack from Karaiskaka upon theij land side. “ The Turks are making their utmost ef» | forts to send a large force into the Morcff, _ this campaign : but it is evident they grow weaker every year, and should the Greet i5r-i’« Ttfen matrimony's chain, shall bind us fast with iron knot, ,, j|_ „ And well secure the gain. “lwuspoes the world:”—my actions who WilDindertake to blame, WhettM rv’ry lad the like would do, ev’ry lass die same. Id’s a cheat—“ there’s nothing true,” he who best can feign, "ship’s hoard, the Pam in Iu, fesldom fail to gain. STEPHEN. Steam.—For some lime past it has been supposed, says the Newburyport Herald, that trie projects which our countiyman, Jacob Perkins, bad been engaged in, in London, for improving steam engines, wore entirely visionary, and that they had been abandoned by him as such. ATe are now gratified to state, that Air. Perkins has suc ceeded in perfecting nearly all his plans, and that he has made several highly impor tant discoveries in the me of steam. Not only extracts from bis own letters show this, but the observations of the ed’tor .of the London Journal of Arts confirm all his statements. So far has Dir. P. progressed, revolution last seven years longer, it will ruiti “ the Turkish Empire. “ The Porte will not listen to the inter ference of any foreign powers. They sa; the Greeks are their subjects, and they wi grant them no terms whatever but will have 1 their complete submission. The Greeks therefore, have no choice—they will be dor stroyed cither way unless some effort is tv made this campaign, of which the arrival of [Jr o ^ Cochrane and Gen. Church give some kind! of probability. “ I was a short time ago, at ConstantindtJ 1 pie, and was astonished to find such change as had occurred. The streets, which were" formerly crowded, are now almost de serted. It is supposed, that at the lowest calculation 80,000 Turks had been behead ed or exiled, and new executions are daily taking place—the most trivial supposition of discontent is immediately punished witl death. Such is the strict police that I was examined, hot only at every coffee house oi the road, but in getting into Constantinopl underwent three different examinations, and my servant was even more strictly examined We saw, at the arsenal, three 100 gun ships (3 deckers,) six 74’s, and about 12 frigates besides 20 corvettes. The remainder the Turkish fleet was lying at the Darda nelles—9 corvettes and 2 frigates were fittin out to join them. TO MISS O. P. Q. “ , Tis not yourself, but your riches. That my enamoured heart bewithes...Hudieras. IN early youth I loved a maid, A lass of beauty rare ; And what but hope, (I often said,) To gain this charming fair. But art was young, and prudence veiled Dame cunning and her train; The consequence, was, that I failed; When most I thought to gain. The maid was fair, her heart was stout, And e’er I asked to Wed, ; -JLj - With beauty’s most bewitching podt, . And angel like, she said:— }. ". “The am’rous youth I do detest, •' -Vi' ~ .

This dcnc, your schemes will seldom cost Much trouble, grief) or pain ; And if you fail, there’s nothing lost: But if you gain, you gain! Though oft I’ve failed—by fortune struck, Yet Hope my stay shall be; And yet I’ll trust in right good luck, Some happy Hay to sec.

The work we design to publish will be prefaced by an address to the people of Georgia, from the same Author, on the outrages and insults offered to them by the Administration, in the publication of the aforesaid volume, but particularly in the unprin cipled infamous Report of T.
