Extract from Murray'9 Travels U the United
States.
Young ladies in the United States ‘come out,’
or‘enter company,’ at seventeen or eighteen
years of age, sometimes even before they have
left school.'—This last practice I cannot help
considering extremely pernicious, it distracts
the young mind from all study, and introduces
aimilar subjects of conversation among still
youuger gitls who are not destined to go out in*
to the world for two or three years to come.—A
young lady whom I knew in 0110 ofthe Atlantia
cities, the daughter of a gentleman itt a high sib
uni,in and remarkable herself for naitets and
quicknoM, told me, ihni when she was at school
somo ofthe eider sclioolars used to go out fre
quently to evening parties, and when they re.
turned, they described to the younger ones the
partners whom they had danced with, and what,
over had afforded them food for observation and
amusement. The accuraev of the account giv,
on to me was indubitable; (or my clover inform*
ant mentioned to me the sobriquets by which
several ofthe young meu in society were known
among her school companions, and they were
droll, but faithfully descriptive. This system
may ho considered harmless by some people and
dangerous by others: without investigating the
subject too minutely, 1 think all must agree that
it Inn a tendency to unsettle the mind for serious
study.
Young ladies enjoy much greater liberty in A<
inerica than in England or Frunco; they walk un
7 attended by a servant, and frequently receive the
‘visits of gentlemen in tho drawing room during
- the morning : thus either in the house, or in rn
ding, a young ladylinny,enjoy as much or the so-
cietv of an agreoablo friend as their mutual in
clinalions may dictate, without the restraints of
tho presence of the mother or any other third
party. This habit of life gives en independence
to tho character which (onus its most striking
featuie in the eye of a foreigner.—Neither are
their opinions nor their studies subject to very
severe maternal scrutiny; I have, upon several
occasions, hoard a young lady openly maintain
Unitarian opinions with a Calvinistic mother in
the room, end discuss somo of the doctrines of
llobbes or Voltiare with much quickness and
freedom*
Notwithstanding the numerous exceptions to
the above remarks, they aro generally applica
ble; and I doubt not that the inference drawn
from them by an English mother would be that
a woman so educated must be lax in her morul
and religious principles. Such an inference
might probably he correct, ifone individual were
so brought up ill England, under a system difi
ferent from that generally pursued, and there,
fore uncontrolled by Uie incalculable power of*
custom and pnbhc opinion; but it would be al-
together inapplicable to America, where the
standard offemle virtue is at least as high as in
any country in Europe. On the othor hand, if
it be inferred from these obset vations, that I pre
fer the system pursued in America to that obser
ved in Britan, the inference will be also incor
rect; for, although exercised within the bounds
of propriety, that very independence or manner
and opinion to which I hove before alluded, as
forming a striking female characteristic in Amer.
ca, tends in a certain degree to impair that moi
dcst reserve, that gentle hashfulness, that'coy
submission' and ‘sweot reluctanco/ which 1
have always considered tho most attractive
and endearing attributes of woman. This is a
point upon which I may ho pecolmily sensitive:
but it has occurred to me moio than once, when
enjoying an agreeable tete*a Ute, either in the
drawing-room, or tho summer evening stroll,that
the concession of such privilege loan ordinary
acquaintance is ail infringement of those rfohia
which nre in England reserved for the most
select friendship, nr for the nearest kindred.
This feeling would force itself upon me; but it
but it must be owned that there is something
charming, and even flattering ton foreigner uni
accustomed to these habits, in the innocent fear
lessnoss with which o young maiden confides
herself to his society and protection. Any ati
tempt to avail himselfoflhat opportunity fordo,
ing or saying any thing trial a mother’s presence
might not sanction, would, doubtless, he met
with deserved resentment and scorn.
A new uny topoyold debts.—About hal a doz*
fit years ago, a very worthy farmer in a neigh
boring State, used to come to (his villngo week*
ly 10 sell liis 'produce.'' He soon found that
it was much oasier to soil ilinn to get payment
Among others he had trusted n widow two or
three dollars. He dunned and donned her,
. until l>o began.to feel somewhat vexed—nor
angry, for tho lady was very lavish of ho
smiles and managed the ufftur so adroitly that
the creditor almost resolved to ‘grin and bear it.’
After no little reflection he determined to
make one more effort; knowing that every
person ha* a weak spot, he thought 'hot a he
chuld discover Iter’s and attack It with till In*
forces, she wound surrender, and ho get tho
debt. He called one Saturday at her house,
ran in the kitchen where she was at work; her
looks bospoko confusion,but recovering presence
of mind, she, with nil the ease of n school hoy
who has reposted hi* lesson for the fiftieth ume
said. "Why Air. , I nm vary glad to sco yon
but l cntt’l pay you to-day; you must call next
week.’
’Oh, my dear madam/ replied he, *1 did not
come to talk about that; 1 did not even think of
that little stun. I’m come on what is ntora tmi
portani to my hunpUiess, and I trust to your a
Madam, (hero he directed a most killing look at
hor) madam. I am a widower.’ Here ho paus
ed, a* if his tiring feeling* clinked his struggling
voioo. Tho widow instinctively felt what tho
widower was aiming at, and ought not t«» ho
censured if she attempted to meet him hall
way. She ordered her yougest daughter logo
to the factory and ask tho agent for tho money
he promired her. Then tho good woman rallied
to an adjoining room, where she placed,on her
t head a fashionable cap, and arrayed herself in a
I uew silk. Having given tho last glance inn

or a raihcr no widower, could withstand the

I s- aled herselfiu the clmir next to her loving
creditor, prepared to receive his proposals. At
this important juncture, between hope ami
doubt, tlio little girl returned with the money.
The Indy now paid tho dclu; tho gmitlnumn
pocketed tho money,took his hat.uiul walked out
of tho house, murmuring to hiiiHolf that tlicro

Every one can imagino lieW the widow hit
her lips'with shame A. auger, when she learned
that the pretended widower had ut the time a

A great distress und iucoiivouieiico is suffered
by the stoppage of neatly all the Mills, and the
impracticability of obtaining Meal and Flour.
In some purls, corn nud'wheat have boon son!
from fifty to seventy-five miles to bo ground;

like a bed of hot ashes and rises in clouds, almost
sufficient tostiflhcntu tho traveller.
Notwithstanding this long und severe drought
the crops ofcorn is vory fine,owing to frequent
showers at tho propor season, which moistened
the surface of tho earth without penetrating it so

DESPERATE MUTINY AT SEA, ON
BOARD THE ULYSSES.
On Saturday nine Seamen were brought
before Jndgo Davis, nt Boston, upon the com
plaint of E. Smiili, Jr., Acting Dictriul Attornoy
charging them wit a mutiny ut sea. in Febuary
la*t. Their intnics uie: Richard Musrerder,
James T. Aimsirong, Charles Stone, Wiliam
Collins, Robert Brook*, John Tilton, John
Winchester, John Johnson, and J110 Broglitoii.
From several depositions forsvurdnd hy Robert
11. Hunter, U. 8. Consul, at Cowes, the follow
ing litois, sa)* the Bostnii Post, were disclosed.
lu Jaiiuury lust tho ship Ulysses sai eJ from
Buhiiuore for Amsterdam, wit a cargo of tobacco
nud staves. Tne crew cou-istcd of the Captain.
(IItrmy Galt,) two mates, ten able bodied men,
before the must, and steward and cook—in all
Iiliee 11. On the ovomiig.of February 15th. while
the nine pri-mncrstniued above were below,
u heavy squall urese, uud llio mate ordered them
on deck to tuko in sail. They refuted to oboy
the order,and gavo for a reason tlmt they did
not get food enough. The mute repeated his
order, and they nguin refused, uiilers he would
agree that in future their ullovvancu uf victuals
should he increased.
The mate refused to make any such condi
tion, and reported their propoiiuott to the Cap-
tiin. who directed him logo below and fetch up
the ringleader, but when ho went down h*
found them prepared for e deadly resistance,
and determined not to permit Broghton, their
'spokesman,’ to he taken. In thu iituaiilituo
Captain Gall had armed himself with a cutlass,
and placed a brace of pistols in the galley, as
a dernier resort. Tho mute having reported
his inability to secure Broghion, the Captain,
armed with his cutlass, went below, und there
found Brugiuou with a pistol and other* with
knives ulle attempted to lav hold of Collins, hut
wus knocked down, wounded 111 tho face, und
then had his legs tied. The mute cutne to his
assistance, and snapped his pistol, which mis.-ed
lire. Ile then called out In tho steward for
innro priming, and Collins replied. 'File.and ho
damned. Wo have as many pistols us you havo.
Collins then pointed hits pistol.
The mates, finding tiiul they could not cnn>
tend with the mutineer*, used ull their exertions
to release the Captain, and with the assistance
of ihe steward, dragged hint on deck, all cover*
ed with blood. The mutineers did not attempt
to follow, and taking advantage of this circum
stance, the officer* suddenly fastened down the
forecustle hutch. They lurther secured it by
nailing u three inch plank across, und stowing
n portion of the cliuin cable upon it. Thus thoy
were confined und kept upon bread and water
day after day. At length thoy became clamorous
for uii increased allowance of water, ami threat
ened to hurst out from their uncomfoitubfo pris*
on. Tho Captain replied that he would rheot
them man by man if they attempted to break
out and ns they were satisfied of his sincerity,
they gavo up tho plan, Tho captuin then in*
creased their allowance of wuter to three pints
ii day. He also ordered the male to propose to
them to return to their duty, but they duuuuded
conditions, uud the cuptuiu would enter into
none whatever, and the negotiation was broken
off. Ho put into tho port of Cowes, ninJ report*
ed tho state of his crew to the Consul, who upon
examination, sanctioned his proceeding-!, uud
sent llio mutineers, a* prisoners, with him to
Amsterdum, where they waro transferred to a
guard ship. When ready for sailing, Captain
Galt refused to take them us prisoner passengers
to bo tried in this country for tho mutiny.—The
Ulysses sailed for Baltimore^and tho next ves
sel at Amsterdam, hound to 1111 Amor lean port,
being the York, Captain Lnrrahoo, the piison-
or* were put on hoard of her, and brought to
the port of Boston, on Friday last.
The U. S. Consul also sent with tho prisoners
the pistols, knives and heavers, found their pus*
session when they were formally arrested nt
Cowes, Ho ulso sent tho ropo with which they
hound Capt. Gall* Among tho depositions,was
one hy the stowurd, respecting the provisions
■ rrved out, and, according to lug statement, tho
bill ol fiiro whs capital for •sailors’ grub.’ Coffim
und molasses every morning, and coffee and tea
uvory evening* Also beef or pork with pea*
soup and other fixonafor dinner every day,with
dun fisli hy wuy of oxtrn. On tho day ofthe
mutiny they had dun fish for dinner, with pota*
toss, and (ificon pounds of beef were cooked,
which they could hnvo had hy applying to the
cook. There waa also halfu harrel of broad in
the forecastle, to which ilioy had a 'free pass,’
with the understanding that it was to last t.l tho
end of the week. Upon this statement of fact*
the prisonors were committed for triul ut the
October term of ihe U. S. Circuit Court.
