NORFOLK. April l, 1829.
We hive been favored by Capt. Gory,
of the ship James Cropper, with the fol
lowing extract from Ids Ion-book, relating
to the occurrence wlih the British frigates,
off the Island of Terceira. and in that part,
whither he had proceeded on hit voysge
from Plymouth, (Eqgl.ind,) with a large
number ofPortuguese, whose safe landing
he effected, (in despite of the vigilance of
the British cruisers,) by .good management

Bibliography, which has just been issued
by Mr. Bebroftliis city, that 111. Charles
Lucas lias published gt Paris a View of
' the Penitentiary System in Europe and the
United Statu, utith several plops of prison*
and statistical labia. The first article in
the work is a petition to the Chambers re
commending the appiopriation-of a liberal
sum for primary instruction as "the best
method of preventing crimes, and urging
alsolhe execution of the law ofthe, 0thof
Sept. 1814, relative to the adoption of the
penitentiary system in France. The ob

of |,he Report of Edward Livingstojt, in
troductory to the code of prison, discipline
and reform prepared by him for the State
of Louisiana. Notes by ?,t Lucas are an

Distressing Shipwrecks.—-By the Nan
tucket Inquirer we learn the particulars of
two ok the must-distressing shipwrecks on
the eastern shore of that islgnd.uii Sunday
the 2Id ult. A storm commenced about
sunrise, and continued with unabated se
verity througli tho day and tho following
evening. One of the schooners wrecked
was the Ranger, of Snleni,Cornelius Was-
gate, master loaded with spars, end bognd
ioNeiv York. The men who were lost
from the Ranger were Thnuiys Jefferson
Johnson,and Samuel Ailabi»r of Mqchias,
(Me.) and Ohadt.ih Wood,of Deer Island.
The other schooner was the Alin, ol'Tho-
mastowp, Me. Kcuhen Mnsmnn, master,
loaded with Lime,hound to New York; vos
sel and cargo totally lost—neither insured.
The men lost from the Ann wero, Reuben
Hi Mosman and Elbririge, first ami seednd
mates, ami sons of the captain,and George
Hai l, of St. George, Me. These two seliou
ners left Chatham, on'the day on which
they were wrecked, in company w ith two
.other's, whose names*Capt. Me does not re
collect ; these two are supposed also lo be
wieckedS—lb.
A Canine Constable —On Monday night
a woman who lireaat the corner of Seim-

being no man in the house, she felt afraid
of going down. A bull x|og belonging to
the house, however, took Upon himself tlie
detection ofthe, fogiie,. He seizoil him
by tlie call ofthe leg, and held him fast,
until the thief hiinseir was fniced to ery
a Watch’’—The watch came accordingly,
and found the man in the hen-lifitse thus
dettjncdby tlie dog. He was walked off

Inlhe7Tih nitmbernfthe London Quar
terly Review, the reviewerfsupposed to bn
Capt. Basil If nil) observes:—
** The Southern States (of tho Ameri
can Union) can, and South Carolina, it is
said, will, rrfuse to obey the Tariff law.
The Stale Astembly will probably exer
cise the power of declaring all the ports,
of Sonth-Carolina.tn be free ports, in or
der to' bring to an issue the right of Con-
crest to enact such a law,"
The same writer adds ,
" If it should appear thnt the Tariff
la» has been enacted, not by sectional
greediness nr domestic party spirit, but by
a desire ta retaliate on- Great Britain,
there are metliodi. the lire of which we by
on means recommend, which would cause
Amerira torue the »'pertinent. Opening
the harbors of New Brunswick, of Bermu
da, and of the Bahamas, as perfectly free
ports, woiifd aflecl their revenue'dnd ship
ping interests; aYi'.f a‘slight encouragement
to the growth ofcotton, the chief ttaple.of
the Southern States, in Brazil, in India,
and especially in Egypt, of Tobacco io
Turkey, and of Rice in Africa, would in
flict a heavier blow on tire export trade of
the United States, than we wish toseenp-
pljrd, except in a very extreme c.ise.n hen
patience ana negotiation shall have utterly
(ailed.”
/refund.—The editor cf the New-York
Enquirer says—" It is very evident from
the King’s Speecl;, that Catholic emanci
pation will prevail during the present sit
ting of Parliament', soft then'will be re
moved all those exciting causes which.have
kept the country in n constant state of agi
tation and distress, and the Catholics will
be enabled to take their rank and station
in tha government' vlnch they assist tn sus
tain. The King places the question' in the
only light which Im’couU', constitutionally
adcipf, which is to carry-the question and
give rights to tlie Catholics, if U can be
dope consistently with the' laws 1 and pel
nianency of the church and state govern
menl; and as therein nothing inconsistent
with either in granting such privileges, it
follows that the bill will pass." ... -
We fear that the editor is goo sanguine
in his expectations. In the course of some
conversation, a fyw days since, with a gen
tleman who hopes all tilings, and believes
all things (good) for Ireland, we asked hit
opinion, of the.prospects of tlie Catholics,
lie requested its to mark down his prophe
cy. which we now do, perhaps rather more
publicly'than he intended. “The minis
terial party will offer the Catholics (tie
boon theydesirk; but.ihey will connect it
with the necessity of some concession or
tome inadmissible provision—so that the
odium of a.refu'sal will come upon those
who no* so warmly petition.’’— U. S. (iaz
tffc: Clay-in doubt. .
The Intelligencer of this morning cities
ns the followingexfrntt from Mr. Clay’s
speech-to'his partisans at Cumberland :
" Whether he should hereafter take any
part or not in public affairs, was a ques
tion,, requiring many comiideraliont. to be
weighed-and among them that arising out
of tno state of his health, . He should ma
tnrely deliberate on them all, alter hit re
turn home. Wherever the result might he
he would always retain a grateful recollec.
lion of the friendly, withes and sentiments
which had been just expressed-”. .. .
When tills declaration is coupled with
Mr. Clay’s proclamation that he is yet
erect -and ready lo obey the call of his
fiends, made .in his dinner speech at Bar
nard’s—and to these is added the following
remarks made at the Mechanics’ supper in
Hagerstown, it would appear that he had
resolved to enter the next Congress. Mr,
Clay said:
"It would be folly and madness to shot
our eyes and conceal front ourselves the
fact, that a great, and I fear,' a doubtful
struggle is just at hand. ‘ The Hail of tlie
House of Representatives will he its tliea
Ira; and at the next sesion ol Congress the
tugofwarw.ill beyhere exhibited ”

says, that lie intends to deliberate mature,

Advice to Young Soldier*.—The sold

competitor with them for glory, gave me a
few salutary hints, especially a-. “ old ve
teran” ofthe 7lilli Foot,-who had boon
then fighting about twenty years in the
East.. Among the hints he gave me were
these: 1st. Never to pass a man lying
down, or supposed to be dead,without giv
ing him the point of the bayonet or sword;
for it was a common trick of theirs td lay
down- on your approach, and then watch
the opportunity of cutting you down. 2d
Whenever I saw a rocket, or shell, fall
near me, to get as close to it as possible,
and lav mvselffl.it on my face. This wai
undoubtedly very excellent advice ; but I
soon got tired of 'rilling dead' men, and
lying down every time I saw a rocket; the
having neglected to do which,on one occa
sion, however, nearly cost me my lifo
which 1 shall mention in its proper plaoo.

The T,tidies at mischief/asOtin.—The Sit
preme Court of Pennsylvania lint lately
decided nn a ctions question. We learn
fromUS Oakelte, that Chief Justico Oib
son, on “aitirdav Inst, in the case of tlui
females of St. Paul's church, tierstir^llte
vestrymen and wardens of said church, de
cided ngalnsi the former; llirra of the asso
ciate judges concurring. That this ense
may he properly miderstnod, it. syill be ne
cessary tn slate tliat llie fenialas, lic'ting up
to the teller or the ciiailer of St. Paul’s
church, conceived that they had a right lo
vote at the election for ves'rymen. izc. At
.last Easter elactinn Ihehr votes were refit-,
sed t and a ’Suit was brought against the
vestrymen, wardens. See. for a broach of,
tho chnrter. The charter rends thus—an*
person paying pew rent, shall lie entitled
to vote, Ac. 1
The Chief Justice gave It as Ml oipninn
that that portion of the charter was a viola
