the Pacificator of Europe—Alexander the
deliverer, thu honorary member of the
Massachusetta Peace Society—has at
length abandoned them to all the atrocious
cruelties that Itlatuism can suggest or
practise. The Sultan has resolved for the
future not to suffer auy Christians to ex

on Navigation. By this, the merchant*
