Jewish Legend —An emperor who had little or no religiou, called together the Jews of his court, of whom there w£re .many, and stated' his determination that they should all come in to the "presence of his people, and prove whether Judaism or Christianity wore the best Veligioo: if the former were shown to be the best, the chrjstains were to be slain; if the latter, the Jews were to be destroyed. No sooner did the Jews hear this than they fasted, put on sackcloth, and entreated one of the chief rabbi’s to prevail on the king to alter his intention. As, however he was inflexible, the rabbi, whose name was Eliezer, asked if he would give him ten days time, and allow him to pay a visit to the court every day. To #wu eh* ^1** acceded. Accordingly Eliezer came to see the emperor the next day: but he gfog, Und fiis own house being made the scene of the trial of his nervous faculties. These terms being agreed to, the parties, separated, and the next tevfeding was to be the time ap pointed'for the decision of the bet. The next evening came, and every thing being in readiness, pistols, fire, and grog,—the corpse was brought in by the party who laid the wager, assisted by a friend, enveloped ina large sheet, and placed in a coffin, and set in the middle Of the room. At this instant, the young hero was called down from the room to speak to a person upon some trfliog busi ness, which he instantly despatched, and re turned up stairs, the parties who brought the corpse in, after wishing him a good night, were on the paint of departure, when he earnestly said to them,— “Now if any tricks are attempted to be played with me, I ivillfire at the corpse, it one looked very much dejected and grieved, which the king observing, inquired the cause, lit is, tor I strongly suspect it is a living being To this Eliezer answered, “Before 1 left, some} They made him no further answer to this strangers called, who insisted I should settle (threat than these omiuous words,—“Reonetn- some affairs for them which I know to be out of my power, and on my begging them not to her twelve o’clock!” A He was then left alone. lie stirred his fire, trouble me, they departed.” ‘Should they and sipped his grog, and made himseli as com- veturn to molest you,” said the emperor, “let! fortable as he could possibly do. At length me know ” And Eliezer having offered his ! the solemn hour of mid-night ariived. As the thanks, retired. The following day Eliezer J last stroke vibrated on his ear, he distinctly said to one of his servants, "Take a cane in j saw the corpse begin to move—he snatched a your hand and give me twenty stripes over my ! pistol from the table, advanced to the col- face. neck, and shoulders.” At this the ser vant was astonished, and refused to punish so good a master; but at length, as the command could not be evaded, he obeyed, and the blood trickled down the rabbi’s body who immediate ly had his wounds dressed, and in this woful plight returned to the palace; As soon as he entered the king inquired what had befallen him? “The two brothers I have named be fore,” said Eliezer, “returned, and wished me to arbitrate between them, I told them I would do so as far as lay in my power, and ask ed them what they wished me to do They inquired iff were not a judge of diamonds; I told them I was. One of the brothers then said, ‘We have a kind father; he has given me a most beautiful and valuable diamond, and mine is the best.’ ‘No’ rejoined the other, *the one that our father has bestowed on me is superior to yours; and this, Oh rabbi, is the affair wc want you to settle.’ On hearing this I desired them to produce their diamonds, promising them to decide fairly; but they re plied that their father was living in a distant country, that the diamonds were in his posses sion. and they were not to receive them until a certain time. Astonished at their demand ing my opinion under such circumstances, I re monstrated with them, when, to my great sur prise, they violently assaulted me and gave these wounds.” No sooner had the rabbi made this statement, than the emperor and his nobles appeared exceedingly exasperated; and so enraged was the king that he was about to swear that the two brothers should die for their cruelty and folly: But Eliezer prevented him. •’What!” exclaimed the emperor, “shall too such wretches live] lie who acts thus is worthy of death!” “Stop, O King,” replied Eliezer; “thou thou art the man! Hast thou rot issued a decree as to the two religions God has given to the world] Hast thou not threatened death to those who do decide be tween them? And who can tell which is best until the end of time]”—Brit. Mag. The Bench and the Bar.—A judge has a hard time of it. If the business of suitors be not despatched with as mnr.h promptness as it should be, it is always the judge that is blam ed by the public; and yet the blame is not al ways entirely his; the bar and the suitors themselves merit a full share of.—If the latter are careless in giving their own attendance, or procuring that of their witness, and the former, from the spirit of mutual accommodation, re fuse to press a trial whenever the oppposite party is unprepared; how is the judge to pre vent the confusion and delay which must oe- cessarially arise frsm^ such a course] And when a cause is at last found, in which all par ties are ready and the trial is commenced, if every word uttered by every witness, is to be written down by every counsel engaged, and if every counsel is afterwards to consume a full hour for every five minutes which would he necessary to the complete discussion of the case? Ir is said the judge ought to control the bar and the suitors. But it is not so easy for a judge to correct abuses which long practice bas rendered habitual, and which contribute to the ease, mental and physical, in various ways, of both judges and lawyers. For the fin, and exclaimed, “if you stir another step, i will fire!” To this injouctiun he received no answer,—the supposed corpse rose up in the j coffin, and stepped towards him He repeat ed his threat—it still advanced—h; fired, and th bullet was thrown back in his face by the corpse, he fell to the ground with a piercing shriek, and rose a lunatic,—in which wretched state ho remained till his death, which happen ed about a year after this tragic and truly heartrending occurr n « A more lamentab e instance of cruel folly perhaps never occurred. And had but i s victim for a moment reflected, he . would have beou saved;—but the idea of toe bullet being return ed, or perhaps of shooting a fellow creature, took such an effect on his nerves, that reason forsook her empire, never more to return. A moment’s forethought would have ScVed him. During the time he was called out of the room to speak to the person w ho wished to see him, (who was a party concerned ) the bul lets were drawn from the pistols, and given iu to the hands of the corpse, who was i.k wi^e one of the party who was present w hen the wager was laid. The occurrence is never thought of by either of ihe actors in this la'ai ly foolish a flair, but it occasions a sigh or pang of remorse.—Souvenir. An affecting spectacle attracted a crowd to the Louvre. Near the burial place of our ferave*titizcns who died tor their country was asoldier, who, after stopping a moment to con template the numberlesstombs, his eyes bath ed with tears, suddenly cried out *1 am a wretch.” At these words he threw himself on his knees, called to those present to shoot him, lore his clothes and endeavored to seize a sword from one of the National Guard io or der to put an end to his life. Immediately great numbers of the National Guard surround ed him, embraced him, and endeavoured to console bim by swearing that the people had already forgotten the errors of hi9 comrades. It waswiih difficulty, however, that they suc ceeded in composing him, and he was led a- way from the place, the sight of which seemed to augment his despair- It will be seen from this example that our soldiers were more un fortunate than guilty, and that each of them had a citizen’s heart beating under bis uni form.—Savannah Republican FOREIGN. Select S*ed Cbr».—-Mr. J. M rcer, a writer lor the American Farmer, in a communication re published in the New-England Farmer, vol. V page 187, states that he had much improved “the genuine Tuscarora corn by never plant ing a gram that was not selected in the fields (for five years past) from those stalks which produce tivo or mere ears.” Joseph Cooper Esq. of New Jersey, in a letter to a gentleman in Philadelphia, states that 1 a friend sent me a few grains of a sroaliei kind of Indian corn the grains of which were not larger lhan goose shot, which he informed me by a note in which they were enclosed, were originally from Guin ea, and produced from eight to ten ears on a stalk.—Those grams I planted and tbund the production to answa* ihe description. bui the nars small, and few of them ripe before frost I saved some of the largest and earliest, and planted it between rows of earlier kinds o> corn, which produced a mixture to advantage; then I saved seed from the stalks that produ ced the greatest number of the largest ear- ami first ripe, which I planted the ensuing season, and was not a little gratified to find its production preferable both in quantity and quality to that of any corn i had ever planted —This kind of corn i have continued planting ever since, selecting that I designed for seed in the manner I would wish others to try, viz: When the first ears are ripe enough for seed, gather a sufficient quantity for early corn or re planting, and at the time you would wish your corn ripe generally, gather a sufficient qoanti ty for planting next year, having particular care to take it from stalks that are large at bottom, of a regular taper, not over tall the ears set loiv, and containing the greatest num her of good sizeable ears of the best quality; let it be dried speediiy; and from the rorn gathered, as last described, plant your main crop, and if any hills shouid be missing, replant from that first gathered, which will cause the crop to ripen more regularly than is common which is a great benefit. The above mention- successful prosecution of such an enterprise, are required not only remarkable strength of j ed I have practised many years, and am satis character and firmness of purpose, but com manding abilities. Every judge is not a lord keeper Guilford. If the bench be too much o- vermatched in standing, learning, and talent by the bar, the control of the former oyer such matters as those we have been speaking of, becomes in effect as merely nominal as that of the Grand Turk over the Dey ol Algiers or the Pacha of Egypt. This dispropotionate weakness of what ought to be the governing power, has been occasionally observed in the courts ofjustice of most countries and, (by the operation of various causes not necessary.to. be here set down,) has been sometimes per ceived even in those of our own. We have no intention of enlarging on this head at pres ent, but shall probably return to it ere long, in treating of the defects in the administration of justice, their causes and remedies.—Journal qf Law, Fatal Frolic.—About twenty years ago a young gentleman, remarkable for strong nerve was at a party consisting of a few friends, tvhere ghosts and supernatural agency became the subject of conversation. Alter a few re marks by someofthe party, the young gentle man's opinion was asked, when he firmly de clared he had no belief whatever in such non sense, and trial he would as soon meet a herd of ghosts as a flock of sheep, and that he would no more mind passing a night in a repu ted haunted house, than by bis own fire side. One or two of the party determined to try his n«:, ve. and one gent leman in particular, offered to-wager him a dozen of wine that he would be airaid to sit op all night with a corpse He instantly accepted the bet, provided he Was allowed a fije, a pair of pislob, gad a glass of tied that it has increased the quantity, and im proved the quality of my crops, beyond what any person wpuld imagine, who has not tried the experiments.'’—Knoxville Register. Traits of the Revolution.—The Paris papers and letters furnish a variety of interesting traits of character displayed by the citizens of that metropolis during the recent revolution. The following are examples: On the evening of the 28th, at the time when the fire of a piece of cannon was causing great carnage among the crowd io the rue Plane he Milhray, one of the brave people .cried out, “Who will come with me and take that piece, I will only have men who are unarmed ”— Followed by eight pr ten men, he rushed for ward, and a bullet reached him just as he was about to obtain his object. His comrades dis persed, but the wounded man got up a<rain, and »vas conducted to a neighboring temporary hospital, which had been established at the house of the Commissary of Police. Al. D’Estree, a skilful surgeon, who passed three days alternately fighting and attending to the wounded, extracted the ball, and thro’ his care the courageous fellow was enabled to go out again. ‘Cowards,’ cried he, ‘you have abandoned me just at the time when the can non would have been ours. Follow me and repair your disgrace.” He went forth again exposed himself to the fire of the piece, and five minutes afterwards it was in his possession. It was then 7 o’clock, and twelve hours after wards this undaunted patriot expired at a few paces from the scene of his courageous ex ploit. He belonged to the class ol the people, Hut among the people of Paris there are 100,- 000 heroes. FROM THE U. ST1TES TELEGRAPH EXTRA THE WEST INDIA TR \DE RESTORED! THE N E ’* S CONFIRMED ! ! !

The packet hip Napoleon, Capf. Smith, which arrived la*t evening, brings interesting and important intelligence.

(An Opposition Rap r.) LATEST FROM EUROPE. By the packet skin N <poieon,.Capt..

The most interesting item of mMl gf-nce to the Ameri can reader* is the Open ng of thf. West Indi- a Ports to our Commerce. Though the pa pers are entirely silent concerning it, and though the fact was known to very fi-w persons in E .gland, we are m po^se-^ion of such evi dence as puts the question beyond ait manner of doubt. A hearer of despatches has arrived in the Napoleon, who proceeds immediately to Washington to commuo rate the news official !y to the American Government. In the meantime, it gives us great pleasure to he ahli to lay before our readers the fallowing letter from a very intelligent source, addressed to thi Editors of .* "-p Journal of Commerce: Liverpool 24th Aug 1830 Y >ur Minister, io hi-, great credit, has suc ceeded in obtaining the consent of this Go vernment to open the mtercours'’ between the United States and the British West India Colonies* and »t is probable that your Presi dent will, in a few days, after this reaches you, issue the proclamation contemplated in his Message which, you may remember, I approved ol at the time, because it showed a disposition on yonr side to remove every sub ji?ct of difference between the two countries.— The Government of this country has display ed equal good feeling in meeting this disposi tion, and Mr. M’L.ine deserves the gratitude of the American nation for his unwearied labors, and the persevering skill and intelligence .which he has pul forth in obtaining this result. It is to be hoped that your Congress will manifest a proper sense of bi9 services, and deem the occasion a fitting one for determining whether an American Minister -at the Most expensive court in Europe, has not a right to claim from the overflowing treasury of bis nation, such pecuniary support as the station of a gentle man and a minister indispensibly requires. FROM THE NEW YORK COMMERCIAL ADVERTISFR. (A Virulent Opposition Paper.) THE WEST INDIA TRADE. We have at length a rumor to which credit may be attached, that Mr, M’Lane has finally succeeded To making-dome arrangement with Great Britain, by treaty* respecting the trade with her West India Colonies. Mr. M’Lane was at Liverpool when the Napoleon sailed, and put into the hands of Capt.

SPAIN —It appears from the French pa pers that symptoms of an approaching revolu tion, or great political change in Spain, are too unequivocal to be mistaken. The following is an extract* “Barcelona, Aug.—The news from Paris has given a great impulse to public spirit in our town, and much more to the persons that dwell on our sea coast, who are already in a state ot ferment. Since the arrival of this news all our authorities, rr.iilitary, civd and ecclesiastic-are in constant deliberation, and they have rein forced the garrisons of out citidel, Astaraza- nas, and of the fortress ofMontjui. The mili tary chiefs had, at first the intention to com mand that domiciliary visits, should be made, and that all our arms should be taken away from ii-; but it afterwards occurred to them that this measure might be a signal for a gene ral explosion such as that of Paris, and they accordingly changed their minds ” Ferdinand has issued a new decree against the press in Spain, by which imprisonment for two years is declared against minor offences, and the punishment of death is awarded to au thors and printers who shall publish books containing treasonable or sacrilegious expres sions —Literary Gazette’ Cowes, Aug. 18.

Who would have said, beforehand, that af ter twenty years of Revolution, Colombia would be as far back in the career of freedom, •»r.d as distant from consolidation, as when the first shout of independence was raised? How • fiLcting to the patriot, to contemplate the present condition of the Republic! No sifun- ation, in fact, could be more deplorable. On every side are to be heard the groans of patri otic men who invoke the spirit of concord in vain. A strange giddiness has seized the minds of men, ‘til from the Nurth to the re motest provinces of the South, all is disorder and dismay. Colombia, which at the close of the Revolution, presented herself to the world united, bappy, exulting in her past achieve ments, and ambit tons to answer the expecta tions of those whose sympathies she had gain ed by the -constancy of her efforts and the brilliancy of her victories—Colombia, which was the terror of Spain, and the ornament of America, has become the derision of nations, ieeble, disunited and undone Iis days of he roism are past—the sun of its glory is set—and the night which has succeeded, is the polar winter; cold dark, a'd despairirg. Unbridled passions, breaking from social restraints, have expelled the power of reason and the influence ofjustice. Who would beli ve ii? the high way man, the assassin, the wickedest of men, no matter what the place of his birth, or the enormity of their crimes, find in Colombia that which is denied to its Liberator—au asylum! —Gaceta de Carthagena. POBIS^TIC. (From the Carolina Gazette ) The Delegates appointed by the Neck, and by the four Wards of the City ofChaileston, respectfully submit to their Fellow-Citizeus, throughout the Si*»e. the foilowiog ADDRESS. Fellow-Citizens—it is the unquestioned privilege of Fre«tnen, at all times, to column- rncate with each other, and interchange their sentiments and views of political affairs; at the present moment, it is no less their boun- den duty. United and concerted -action is ev er most efficient, and the crisis imperiously de mands from U3 union and concert. A loud and noisy Faction has engrossed too long the ear of the community, and filled it with insanely exaggerated statements of wrong and injury. But the still small voice of Truth has begun to make itseli heard, and in the subsidence of the excitement which these dangerous men have caused, their hopes and expectations, and influence, are fast ebbing away. We call upon you, Fellow-Citizens, and with the utmost earnestness beseech you to consider the position in which we are placed, and the duties, which in reference to it, de volve upon us, to be performed without delay or hesitation. The question to be decided at the approaching Election, when stripped of all the intricate subtleties with which it has been adroitly surrounded, 19 plainly this!— Whether it is incumbent upon the State, now, under existing circumstances, to assume the attitude of resistance to the General Govern* mOot, and at all hazards, to refuse obedience to the Acts of Congress pronounced by our Legislature to be unconstitutional and oppres sive. ■ We will not be blinded, Felloe-Citizens, by the sophistries which have been industriously suggested by the violent Faction to which »e are opposed, in their anxiety to bide from the view of the people, the inevitable consequences of the measures they advocate with such heat ed zeal. If the State throws itself, in the phrase of the day', upon her sovereignty, and withdraws herself from the control of a majori ty of her sister Stales, the bonds of union are forever broken, and nothing can save the dis cordant masses revolving separately in their neighboring spheres from clashing and confu sion. If, on the other hand, she absurdly con* tends for the right to avail herself of the privi-* 1- ges and blessings of our hitherto happy con* federation, while she absolves herself from it a reciprocal obligations, duties, and restraints, A she comes at once in collision With the su- pieme powers, which she herself assisted to create. Disunion and Civil War then are the inevi table consequences of the steps proposed io bo taken. But we are not prepared, Fellow-Citi zens, to encounter evils so deadly and irrepar able. Such desperate remedies are not re quired by our actual political condition. We hold in reserve the unalienable right of Revo lution as the last resort, when tyranny has be come hopeless and oppression insufferabl e— When our opponents affect to evade and disa vow the certain tendency of their projected resistance, it is difficult to reply, without in dignation, at their d^ingenuousness. TL.oj have indeed in their manifestoes, taken occa sion now and then, t« proclaim, ibeir ardent at tachment to the Union, and iheir love of pease; and it is possible that some among them may be so ignorant, or so deluded as to h entitled to our forgiveness on the ground that “they know nut what they do.” But this excuse is by do means applicable to the conduct of their leaders. In the upper, mid dle, and lower sections of our State, the same language has been held, as if to test the excit ed people. While one dechifcs with equal consistency and patriotism that “He bas no love for the Union-,” anoiher calculates coolly its value, and intimates the calculation to have resulted in the proof of its being not only a. “A splendid failure.” but “An absolute Despo tism; and a third exhorts us “Not to tremble at tbeword Disunion.” We do tremble, Fel low-Citizens, at the proposal— ‘At the word** —at the thought—hut it is with the shudder of horror and disgust—not with the base ague of fear. This will he shown whenever the thought aud word shall ripen into act. This shall we prove as soon as sacrilegious hands shall be laid upon the ark of our Union to im pair and destroy it, by our readiness to peril our lives and our fortunes in its defence. Nor have any means been left untried to weaken the ties which connect together the several geographical divisions of our Country. And the Dinner Speeches and Toasts uttered and published in every District, offer melan choly proofs of their success in inflaming the passions of our ignorant, unthinking, aud ex citable youth The malignant feelings thus roused have been particularly directed too, for some unaccountable purposes, against that section of our common connsrv, which has, throughout, exhibited most sympathy^nd con cert of action with us, and which has certainly suffered more than any other, except our own, under the acts obnoxious to our cen*ure. The North, which actually aided us in resisting the burdensome restrictions own Commerce, »h perpetually abused and vdhfied; while onr misguided brethren of llie Western and Middle States, by whom these gross injuries were* and are specially perpetuated, usually escape without notice or imputation. Nothing coo be more unfair ami unjust. One word more, Fellow Citizens, and we have done. In 0or own Election District, and some others wuhin the S:ate, the very term Nullification has become a bye-word and a reproach, and it was necessary to substitute tor it some other, less obviously connected, as an antecedent with Disunion and Civil War,* in order that its advocates might obtain a hear ing. The substituted word is Convention, But you will not suffpr yourselves to fail into so simple a snare. The Legislature is alto gether cocnpeteitt to decide and enter upon every measure ol resistance which is within the limits ofthe Constitution, and beyond this you will not be either urged or seduced. A Convention is without aim or purpose, unless it secede from the Union—or Nullify a Law of Congress—or reform some of the internal a r - raogements of our State Government. Neith er of these will we assent to—neither is to be at th:s time desired. With these views then, Fellow-Citizens, let us be vigilant and active. Let as attend th® polls at the ensuing Election in the full con fidence of tranquil strength Onr good cans® will ultimately prevail—will finally triumph,—— By our votes we will save our beloved Coun try, from the horrors of Anarchy and Revolu tion—we will save our deluded Brethren from the consequences of their ill advised, rash, and desperate purposes—we will save them from themselves. We will depute to onr Halls of Legislative Representation, men cfcoolself- command, and considerate habits, of rational firmness and moral courage, who having first extinguished the rising flames of angry contro versy among ourselves, shall then proceed to devise and execute sound and proper measures for our relief from the evils of which we so loudly, and unhappily with so much reason* complain. In efforts made for such a purpose, especially if well timed, vigorous, and judi ciously directed, our present misguided oppo nents will, no doubt, gladly unite, and success cannot fail to crown them ultimately, based as (hey are in right and justice, and urged wdh energy and unanimity. We shall then too' occupy high ground, ia* presenting to the view of the Republic and tbo world, a gallant People struggling to repress its sense of wrong, and to support every injury not absolutely intolerable, rather than peril by reckless and convulsive movements of resis tance the last hopes of freedom, and in with* drawing one of its .strongest pillars, overthrow the sacred and beautiful Temple of America^.
