Come a peed we, my comrade*; there’ahonor tdwin,
Our banner has floated where’er we have been, ,
Alabama and Georgia have heard of our tame,
And Florida noon shall re-echo the same:
Our tuuaketi ore charged, and our spirits are firm,
The Scminc-ie's triumph we’ll nip in its germ;
Wc are victors by sea, we ure victors by land,
Then where is the foe shall our procces withstand.

VERY LATE AND IMPORTANT FROM THE
PACIFIC,
Baltimore, Nov. 16.
Attempted Resolution of Chili.—The fast sailing brig
Argylc, Capt. Codmau, arrived at this port lust night
in only 72 days from Valparaiso, the ..xchange Read
ing Rooms have received papers to the 31st of August
inclusive, from which we gather the following state'
ment of an attempted revolution of Chili. Itilorniu-
tion- was received at Valparaiso by the Chili Govern
ment, from their Minister in Peru, flint the Lt-hcnee
al Preire (formerly President of Chili.) was fitting out
un expedition at Calloa (consisting of the ship Monte
aqundu and Man-of-Wur Brig Gen. Orbcgossa, char-
tcred from the' Peru Government) tor the Island of
Clii'vc in the South part of Chili to effect a revolu
tion in that quarter against the existing Government of
Chili, and sailed ti-om Callao 7th July, lus force con
sisted of about 14 guns in each vessel, and about 6u
men aud officers in both—-the men were mostly desert
ers from foreign vessels, and his officers were disaffect
ed aud banished Chilians, Preire's intention tnjng to
touch nt the island of J u^i Fernandes, and there re
lease and take iuto lus scrnelT, the convicts placed there
by tiie Chili Government—but on Uieir passage up, the
crew of the ship Moutcoquada fell on their Officers and
confined them iu irous on the deck and brought the
ship into Valparaiso ou the 5tb or tith of August, and
gave her up. ...ffi the olliccrann board, to lisa Chili
Government. ™
This iuformation caused a great deal of alarm at Val
paraiso and St. Jago; all business was at au end and a
revolution expected by many. Tho Chili Government
took very strong aud euergetic measures to counteract
Froire. Troops were immediately despatched aoutti.
The Achilles man-of-war brig, and ship Mouteaquudn,
and 53chr. Coiobolo were titled out anu in a very shore
time armed aud ms lined under tile Chili Flag, anu sail
ed supposed bound to Cniloc in search of f ricre’s oili
er vessel, the General Ohreguso, he being on board
that vessel with his best officers, a supply of small arms
and money to effect his object. An embargo was laid
on all the ports in the North of Chili on the doth July,
and lasted uutil the 2'llh Aug. at Valparaiso—bat was
still kept on at other Ports. Gun Boats were fitted up
for the protection of Valparaiso Harbor, and Martial
Law proclaimed. Ou the vSJth of August information
reached Valparaiso, (by the barque George & Henry,
Smith, of Baltimore, from Conception, which vessel
had been released from the embargo to bring the news
down) that General Friere had made good his landing
at the Island Chiloj, without much difficulty, aud that
the troops and inhabitants had joined his Flag.
No other information respecting Friere hail transpi
red previous to the 1st of dement qer, whence the Ar-
gylo sailed, hut it was generally thought ne would soon
be put down and tranquility restored, as tbe present
government was very cnergeJc, and decided in their
movements, and as a greater part of the wealthy citi
zens of Chili came forward in the support of Govern
ment; business began to assume its usual activity atkr
tho embargo was raised and tranquility restored at
Valparaiso. It was generally believed at Valparaiso,
and also by the Chili Government, that the Govern
ment of Peru had secretly assisted Friere in this expe
dition against Chili, aud it was thought bv many that
there would bo war between Chili und Peru—a great
many vessels were detained at Valparaiso during the
embargo.
M ILVOA. Oat. 1.
Wo hive in tUiVs from M tdrid for soma time past,
on account of the roads bring intercepted by the Car-
lists. Tne successful expedition of Udmez, since he
left Navarra, brings to our minds the most painful and
melancholy reflections. Alt who were acquainted with
tlio situation of the Provinces through which he pass
ed, and with the mo^ of warfare practised in onr
country, predicted the immediate defeat of this bold
expedition; hut, unfortunately, events hive proved
them in error.
We are satisfied that nothing can be calculated upon
with any certainly, because every thing appears to nap-
pen contrary to whu is anticipated. vVli> would sny,
that a faction, weak and disorganized, at first should
stand before our valiant soldiers, and dispute victory
wtut them, oblige them to onter into basa treaties, to
abandon their inaccessible mountains, to invade our
provinces, block up our ports, seize onr fortifications,
and even strike terror to the inhabitants iu the heart of
the kingdom! No one—but all this has happened, to
the astonishment of all. A lunatic, at tho uead of an
• insignificant force,has been the hero of tbe'entarprisc;
who, proud of his triumph, and master of a great quan
tity of rich plunder, the product of his rapacity, repasses
tic Ebro, and carries to bis lord the spoils of the un-
JiUppy inhabitants, who. will have to lament for a long
period,, the abandonment to which they were left, and
IQ the expectation of being sacked for the second time
hy the leader Gotnez. This Cariist has desolated, in hi*
march, the provinces of Asturias, Gall-in nntj both Cas-
Xiles, Ara jon and Valencia) aud coiprs now to destroy
lha towns of Andalusia.
The factions scotfr the country at their pleasure, take
•away til l property oQho people, and place the capi-
■ Mis in jeopardy. " •
upon the same principle, professedly designed lor mor
al and religious reformation, which have absorde J trie
most substantial and influential portions of the com
munity. secured to themselves an unrivalled influence
and a thorough internal independence, so that they
are able now to bid defiance tp any opposition—their
agents swurm over the land in cloud* like the locusts
of Egypt: there is not a city, or town, or village, or
settlement, from Georgia to Maine, from the Atlantic
coast to the Rocky Mountains, which has not its minor
and subsidiary association, and iu many of them they
ure multiplied—all pottring in their contributions to
the central treasuries, resigning the entire control of
the affairs to these institutions, and tbe disposal of their
funds, to a few individuals at their bead, who are them
selves, in the first place, and by their own enactments,
well and independently endowed. The press, with all
it* various powers, is ever active in the circulation of
just *ucli information os may suit the designs of those
who govern all. Truth is suppressed, and falsehood
imjiosed. The community, for the most part are hon
est, confiding, and believe what they are told.”
No ono will venture to deny the truth of this picture,
and no reflecting ntiud can ponder over it, without be
ing appalled with a perception of Die dominion exer
cised by such a combination over the mind of men, hr
good or for evil. If exercised in that purity ol" spirit
becoming such high and salutary purposes, much good
may be done; but if, ou the contrary, proaututed to
worldly ends, to the acquisition of wealth and power,
it will become an opprobrium aud a curse.
That it is fast deviating into this latter predicament,
wo not only fear, but believe, because we see before
our eyes, that whatever may be the avowed objects
of these combinations, they invariably degenerate into
money-making concerns, and money is one of the moat
powerful agents of power. Itinerant beggars arc scut
forth to levy contrbutions utl over the land; money !
money! money! is the cry, and money is freely giveu
by every class, down to the servants in the kitchen.
Nay, the very children are persuaded out ol the nob-
day pittance given them to gladdcti their little hearts
and make them happy for an hour, as a reward tor good
behaviour. We hear tdntost every day, ot tfieir being
persuaded to abstain from coffee, sugar, or some outer
innocent, nay salutary gra'ification, in order that ffie
value of the sacrifice may be bestowed on some society
that lives by begging, and the heroic fact never fails to
be trumpited forth in the papers of thesoricties, every
one of which has it- organ, which sounds what pipe
they please, and which, in itself is a source of great
profit, through the vast extent of its circulation.
They have their printing establishments and their
book stores too, where all the patronage of the sect is
concentrated, aud the profits of which contribute to en
rich, if not the sect or society, at least its leaders, di
rectors and managers. Tiie books aud tracts, preten
ded to be givon uway, and which we see tltrown about
as waste paper in steam boats and taverns, are also
paid for by contributions from tbe jieople, aud some
times paid for twice over. These printing offices and
booKstores, being supported by public contributions,
can atibrd to underwork aud undersell those establish
ed on die personal resources of individuals, and thus a
monopoly is created, and private enterprise swallowed
up by extensive combi iaUons.
Thousands of extravagant, enthusiastic brawlers are
sent fortli among the good people of the United States
to circulate and enforce a fiery and consuming fanati
cism—to denounce with senseless violence their ordin
ary food and beverage—to establish new standards of
moral and religious duties, foisted over the heads of
bodi law and gospel. The Book of Statutes is no lon
ger a guide, und the Bible becomes a dead letter, ex
cept so fur as it is perverted to die purposes of fanati
cism and hypocrisy. We say hypocrisy, because we
firmly believe that there never was a fanatic, who was
notau incurable madman, whose zeal whs not mingled
with nil overbearing selfishness. All these itinerant
brawlers are maintained cither by the money of the
people, derived through the societies, or from direct
contributions to die itinerants themselves. What these
amount to at best, may be gathered from die fact, tliat
one of the most ultra preachers of abstinence, in eat
ing and drinking, has realized from his labors a snm
sufficient to purchase an estate at Nordiampton, iu
Massachusetts, where he is doubtless at this moment,
practising his favorite system.
Steamboats, stage coaches and Rail Road cars a-
bound in this species of Laymouks, eating, drinking
and traveling at die expense of the public; dissemi
nating false notions of our moral obligations,, and in
fect it not—will suffer serious loss
much persounl inconvenience.

Hard Times —High rents aud prices of every
thing we cat aud wear, are themes of univer-al
complaint. Bacon, beef, veal, lamb, poultry,

those who have to toil for their livelihood,. Cut

The Meteors.—We see it stated, that on the
night of the I-3th iust. beiug the anniversary of
the brilliant shower of meteors in 1831, ihesame
phenomenon was observed in various places,
ihough in a more moderate way. The fact is
now pretty well established, that an anuual rep
etition of the phenomenon may he expected on or
near the 13th November in each year.—N. Y.

A correspondent of the Philadelphia U. S. Gazette,
gives the following interesting account of the Boston
Farm School.
This establishment has been recently made up out
of two other societies, and the scat of its movements is
large and beautifully situated island in the harbor.
The or j ct is to take indigent boys—old enough to
learn and do something—multitudes of whom, in all ci
ties, are continually prowling abom the streets. There
are about 100 of them; and they are taken in band and
put upon the farm, and thoroughly drilled in tiiat heal
thy and useful inode of life, till their character is con
sidered formed, and an opportunity offers of establish
ing diem well for life, as many of them, I believe, have
been. Schools, religious exercises, &c. are constant
ly furnished, the boys working the season tiirougli by
relays, and all having a chance at all die advantages of
the institution by turns. 1 never have seen a more
ragged set of little rogues than tiiese were in life; nor
even a happier, healthier, or thriftier set titan they are
now. It is a first rate charity, and is at the same time
in a fair way to pay for itself and more. The boys
have produced this season, over 500 dollars worth of
best seed alone.” £

breach of promise of marriage was decided The
plaintiff was Mary Alin Stevens und the defendant
Joseph Floyd. One of die reasons urged on the at

clining to fulfil his engagement, was that the lady had
heroine somewhat deaf, which madc.it un unpleasant
task to converse with her. But, as we learn from
the Poitsinoiitb Journal. Judge Greene decided that
naming bnt such tin infliction bv the providence of
God, as absolutely incapacitated the individual from
performing the duties of a wife, was an excuse. If
she has a paralytic shock .or has become entirely blind,
or perfectly deaf, it would appear that the act of God

from their supposed strong hold on the YVitblacoochee,
