.; . rei -i>. , Defeat the Turks by Hie Egyptians^ —The t allowing account of a great battle between the armie -of the Grand Sultan and the Egyptians, in which the former was defeated, with the cap ture of the Grand Vizier, (the Prime Minister of Turkey.) is the most important item by this arrival. ’ It is as follows;- CONST A M'INOPLE, Deo. 26. The greatest gloom prevails here. The Sul tan and his people appear to have fallen into a state oi apathy, indicative of a total dissolution. ‘.Vi*- ton;s s gives up his case as desp; rate, and does not venture to excite the people's minds by artificial means, lest he should not be aide to calm them agatn and keep them within bounds, i Th unfortunate result of the battle of Kotunh, and the captivity of the Grand \ icier, leaves th’ <aj ital withont means ofdefence. There are ; still,perhaps 30,000, Tuikishtroopsdisperscd in Asia Minor, and 10,000 regulars in reserve, hut their ■ pirit does not correspond with the threat ening danger, nor is their any aide leader pos sessing sufficient self-confidence, and who is < onaidered as able to restore good fortune to the standard of the Sultan. Uedschid I'acha i was the on’-. . ..an possessed of these* qualiiica- ; tions. 1 lis termer good fortune lias deserted i him, and gone over to his younger adversary lie fought valiantly, and when his defeat vras decided, devoted himself to death, which how i ever, ho did not find. Superior to his adversa i v v in the number of his troops, he unhappily did , not act with prudence, which an able General should never lose sight of.—lie resolved, on | the 21st, to light a battle which should decide I the campaign at one blow. With this view he | followed Ibrahim into the defiles of Ivaran.au ■to attack him there. His measures wore near \ ly as follows : —the main body of the Sultan’s | noops, 42,000 in number.chicfiy Albanians, and ,"00 oft.be Grand Vizier's household troops, un der his own command, were to make the prin tipal attack on the centre of the Egyptians,] while the Turkish cavalry- divided into *\vo: corps of 6,000 men each, was to engage the ] wings of Ibrahim’s army, and attack when it ! should see an opportunity. Ibrahim, perhaps, j I guessed this plan and favored by the defiles, j had sent strong columns against the Grand i Viziers wing; leaving in the centre onfy suffi- j cient troops to cover his movements. He had i scarcely reached the extremity of the wings of; he Grand Vizier, when he impetuously attack ed the Turkish cavalry and dispersed if, and then attacked the Grand Vizier himself, on both j ! Hanks, L nprcpareu for this attack, and engaged with j the Egyptian centre, which had already broken, I he hastily collected some of his best troops to f oppose the Egyptians, but in vain. Nothing ] remained but to make the enemy pay as dear as ! j possible for the victory, which was unavoidable; j this was done, and the Egyptians did purchase 1 1 their triumph by a sanguinary conflict of six j ] hours duration. The loss on each side was ‘ nearly equal. When the Albanians w > dis-1 1 i parsed, the Grand Vizier, win • , < I household Hoops, defended himsci’ • ~}_ - I most, fill h: was „ ’ pnscuer.. j In- - - i'itu'?..!- said to be -o weakened that | en i bv. ,if the Turkish troops in Asia Miaoi ! --ould be assembled quickly enough, they might 1 I lie e impelled to make a most dangerous re- ‘ retreat. But they- need not fear this. [, There is no genius or spirit in the Councils 1 |of the Sultan, meantime the Emperor Ni-ho sa • ■is acting with the greatest magnanimitiy. Count 1 f Murawiefi is gone to Alexandria to try to make I peace, and is to to threated Mehemct All with | the displeasure of the Emperor, who will con- P sider him as a rebel against the sultan, if he |i does not return to his obedience. By an arrival at New York, London papers j! to the 15th, and Liverpool to the 16th January, I inclusive, have been received.

Population of Rome. —From an official state ment of the population of Rome, just published, it appears that it amounted last year to 148,459 souls, arid that it has diminished by 2,000 indi ! viduals since the preceding year. Among the ! number are 36 bishops, 1,419 priests, 2,038 monks, 1,384 nuns, and 611 seminarists. The |number of marriages in 1832 was 1,165, of Til ths, 5,045, of deaths, 4,659.

Thc Justices of the Inferior Court of this county, conve ned ycs!o:dny for ordinury purposes, and made the follow uig appointments, viz : Uenry Ad&ras, Clerk of the Court of Ordinary, and James Donahoo, Esq., Indian agent for said county. Nothin*? as yet bus been done in relation to thceelection ot a county scite ; and from the best information wo have been able to obtain on the subject, no selection will be made till the drawing or the Lottery is completed; which we are informed will probably be about the tirst of-May. •luraria. —The Village of Auraria, is situated on the | ridge dividing the waters of the Chcstatce and Etoah Rivers, on lot number six hundred and sixty-four, in the twi lit.- 1 district, and first section, of or.&iually Cherokee, . now Lumpkin county; and supposed to be immediately in j the most valuable part of the Gold Region. Its locality, justly entitles it to the name which it bears; bring one I as we conceive, of melodious sound, accompanied with i classic taste, and appropriate derivation, and as we at all I times take pleasure in awarding merit, to whom it is due, wv give the name cf the late Vice President, John C. Calhoun, as the author of this admirable selection, from the catalogue of names, which he suggested for this place, . when at his mines in this neighborhood last November. I lie first Cabin was erected here about the firstof June last, by'William Dean, Esq. who was shortly followed by Nathaniel Nuckolls, Esq. who opened a house of cn i tertainnunt for the accommodation of those disposed to , make examinations for gold in the surrounding Country; 1 and the consequence was, that his house was immediate ly crowded with the moat respectable, end ent *ising> part of community from this, and .ether stites.

The Lot on which Aunuia stands, having been drawn by orphans sometime in January la?t, and they having at that time no Guardian to ac t for them, the growth of the place was greatly retarded fiom that period, until a few days since. The Guardian of the Orphans has just left here,after making satisfactory arrangements with the citi zens for the present year,and the state of improvement is now going on in a manner wo will venture to say, un precedented in any back country village in the southern £ tales. There is now on tins Forty Acre Lot of Land, one Hundred Family dwellings; eighteen or twenty stores; twelve or fifteen law offices, and four or five Taverns, &c. The town population is estimated atone thousand, and that of the county, at ten thousand, and constantly in cn asing, w ith a rapidity almost too incredible to relate. The Indian population is small; their right of occupan cy to the soil, having in most cases, been cx tin gushed j previous to the survey and distribution of the country. I The mines already drawn in this vicinity, (not involved in litigation) are yielding to the proprietors in rich abun ’ dance, the anticipated fruits of the most sanguine specu lator. asr— : Price of gold in Auraria, from 85 to 02 cts, per dwt. according to its fineness; that collected in this neighbor ! hood will average 90 cents, when well cleansed, when • fluxed and run into bars, 9*2 cents. j Mr. M’Collum, late of Tennessee, a gentleman of character for enterprise and mechanical genius, has just j constructed in this neighborh.ee 1. a boat with a diving j bell attached to it, for the purpose of raising gravel, and ] collecting gold from the bed of water courses. The boat ! was launched in the Chcstatce river on Friday evening ! last, in our presence, and we feel confident in saving, that ] we believe the example will be followed by rnanv, and 1 that the projector will be richly compensated for bis laudu -1 ■ b!e and useful experiment. , —: : - i Gulden Specimens. —A. M’Laughlin, Esq. of our county, exhibited to our inspections few days since, a specimen from bis mine, weighing upwards oflortv dwta. supposed to be four fifths gold, the remainder rough sand, which from every appearance, must have been cemented to the j bulk by beat at the time of its formation. Col. D. C. Gibson, has also brought us a Specimen : taken fiom lire bed of the Chestatco River, on the I .ot owned by himself and Col. Calhoun, weighing nine lbs. and three <>z. w ith one hundred and twenty-four particles of gold.upon its surface, plainly perceptible to the eye. Gen.

The fourth and fifth Sections of the bill teiceierce; South Caro lina, opens the Cherokee- cane, and enables thorn to bring the question of title to the Georgia Gold Mines, before the Supreme Court of tb’- United States. Immediately after tire passage of this bill, this Cbcrokers in due form, gave notice to Governor Cass, Secretary of V> ar, of their determination not to progress in the treaty which they had made, in a great measure by compulsion. It is now suiJ, and believed, thev will carry the ir case before the Supu me Court of the tinted States, and it is the opinion generally, of sound lawyers, tiiat a decision will be made 1 th'ir five.-.

All this difficulty has arisen out of the passage of a bill, vvliieu if. a blot upon our statute book, and which 1 think was pressed upon Congress, for the sole purpose us gratit ving the passions of weak ami wicked men.

To those who had improvements, n right to enjoy their possessions, until that right should be peaceably and amicably extinguished on their part, by a treaty with the United States; and such lands as were j vacant, and such as had ’ ecn abandoned by the emigra ting party of Indians, has been granted to the drawers on application to the Ftalc authorities, and too coun try is settling with a zeal and rapidity, unprecedented in any former acquisition of territory. Are we now to be dispossessed of our premises ? Are vve to he interrupted i m the enjoyment of our property? Are we witn our grants | in onr pockets, to be thrown out of doors, and ordered to dc- j part fiom our own houses ? Are there any so dastardly as submit to such indignities ? If so, he had better flee from the wrath to come—for be will not find refuge in a South ern climate. No, the slightest touch of this sort, will be considered, an assault, which under our laws, will justify a battery. And when the blow is stricken, a case ensues which no Court, known to the laws of this country can determine, (no not even the Supreme Court of the United States.) 2E2E : OUR MARKET.—V; e give below a list of prices of some lew articles, in much demand in this market.—The infancy of the country, and the consequent scarcity of previsions, affords inducements to the agriculturists of the adjacent counties, to look to this as a market for their surplus produce.

I His brilliant and commanding talents—his un spotted integrit v and eminent national services, all combined, seem to have raised for him a shield ol defence, aiikfi potent against the bitter ness of party hate, and the reckless spirit oi ri valry and ambition. Indeed, a very respectable portion of the party opposed to the administra tion, of which he is an ornament have been forc ed to concede publicly that their opposition ex tends not to him. This high tribute to talents and public virtue, is in tile present instance am ply deserved ; as a hasty and brief recurrence to some distinguishing event in his past life may serve to illustrate. <iov. Cass is emphatically a self made man. He was born we believe in the state of’Ncw- Hampshire, but emigrated soon after complet ing his education, to the then mart of youthful enterprise and ambition, the new state oi’ Ohio. Here, for several years, ho pursued with emi nent success and marked ability, the profession of the law, and gave early presage of those powers of mind which eventually raised him to his present elevated position in the public view, and as a profound jurist and accomplished statesman, the same genius and industry evinc ed in the humbler but intricate controversies of individuals, readily enabled him to extend his intellectual grasp to those great topics of gene ral interest, involving the principles, the policy and the rights of nations.— Sttsquehannah Re gister. Matthew Carey has “ quit the drive,” in des- ’ pair of the cause of protection. In his vaiedic-j tory, speaking of the late conciliation ati, lie 1 says, “ The dignity of the Government is inde libly tarnished and effaced; it has experienced not a temporary oenuCßrijn ILT;. iy, but we. would hope, an everlasting annihilation, we 1 mean, of course, that part of the gov ernments dignity, which consisted in regulating and controlling the pursuits of private industry. Well! cade in pace is our respectful adieu ; for we respect the man. We never doubted the purity of his motives, and we have much to remember of his services to his country. We have not forgotten among other things, his Olive Branch which came with healing efficacy in the last war, to make peace between angry parties, and unite them against the common enemy. Such men when they take a wrong bias are capable of doing, as Mr, C. certainly has, much public injury He and Mr. Niles, have done more than perhaps arty other two persons to dissemi nate a delusion that many think came near pros trating our whole fabrick. Their mistake was in taking “ American Industry” to mean “ man ufacturing industry,” and they kept up the pres sure till they started the rivets of the Constitu tion. But thanks to a kind Providence, opera ting through the intelligence and patriotism of an educated people,the weight is thrown off; and the great regulating principle will work it steadi ly hereafter, at least for a time. Mr. Niles from the “ hopelessness” of rendering further desired service to the cause, is deliberating, he says, whether he will not follow Mr, Carey’s lead. — Georgia Journal. The Cherokee Case. —The National Gazelle speaks ofthe Cherokee case, said to be in con templation, as an “extremely doubtful story,” which some apocryphal writer at Washington (the “Spy in Washington,”) has put in circula tion.” It also gives place to a communication from a correspondent shewing that the fourth and fifth sections of the enforcing bill, do not “open the Cherokee case so as to enable the question of title to thg Georgia Gold Minas to be brought before the Supreme Court of the U. S.” as alledged by the Washington letter wri ter. The 4th section enables the Federal Courts to proceed on affidavit, where copies of the records of State Courts cannot he obtained The sth section authorizes the President to em ploy the means provided by the acts of 1795 and 1807, to suppress unlawful or forcible opposi tion to the laws of the U. States. Neither of these provisions touch the Cherokee case. The Supreme Court refused to take cognizance of the case, because the Cherokees wore not a “foreign state,” within the meaning of the Con stitution, and therefore could not be a parly in Court; and it is almost needless to remark, that the Judiciary Bill neither has changed, nor could change this aspect of the case. New Carmel. —Rumors of a change in the Cab/uct have been rife for some time past. , vVe confidently look for anew organization in a few days, and we should not be surprised to see the following, or something like it, as the result; Mr. Cns3 to retire—Mr. Dallas to take the Navy Department—Mr. Woodbury the Treas ury Department—Mr. M’Lane tha State De partment —Mr. Barry to remain as at present — Mr. Livingston to go* to France—Mr. Ste venson to England—and Mr. Forsyth to as sume the direction of tha Department of War.— Alexandria Gazette. “UoTi’s hotel in New-York. appears to bo an .•xtraorcl u’i-y \V C find the fofiowui a I the New V , J rU Gazette:— “It he keen opened scarcely a month, mk | and he now dines over two hundred gentlemen j at his ordinaty, an d at least two thousand in tl” various rooms, (Jnjly, His beds amounting , i near 250, have be>n several times complete! 1 filled.

It is contcmpi; ; that only one process should take place in West Indies; that after the boiling of the ■-1 gar cane, the proceeds in a fluid state shr ll| be shipped for England, to be manufactured j there. By a patent taken out, the fluid, by >n; ] process, is to be m nufactured into refined su- I gars. The process of making muscovado su - ’ crar and distilling rum, would all be in England I The person who has submitted this plan, hn ! taken a patent nff the refining by one pro. ess,, ! the fluid into lump Sugar, in I” ost oi 1 uro ; pean countries, and, we believe, tn America. The plan, says the London New Price (. urrent, w ill create a complete revolution in the suga I trade. It is entertained by the ministers, nnc i approved by the first houses in the West Indti- Trade. — Augusta Constitutionalist New-York, March 25. Government Deposits. —We understand tha much talked of measure of withdrawing the go ’ ment deposits from the United States Bank has at length been accomplished. What is more remarkable, this has been done, not b> the order of the President or Secretary of th< Treasury, but by an order of Congress adop ted by a very large majority of both Houses. And this, notwithstanding the House of Repre sentatives voted at just about the same time by an equally large majority, that the deposits might safely remain in the Bank. If any thing can add to the remarkable character of this re markable transaction, it is that no other place | of deposit has been fixed upon, or is likely to : he, and that in fact the very balances have dis appeared altogether, having been paid to tho merchants as return duties under the ISth. scc : tion.

During its progress a great number ol walls and stone buildings were demolished, and deep excavations were left in various parts r • the town. The grave-yards were torn up, and a field of cane consisting of several acres, wa sunk to the depth of five feet. The inhabi tants, in their consternation, took refuge or. board the shipping, all of which escarped unin jured. No lives were lost, the dwellings having been vacated upon the occurrence of the first shock, which was too slight to occasion injury. At Nevis, where the Earthquake was partially felt, but little injury was done. Aura iii a, April ISU-k TO JOSEPH STHXCKLAND ESQ..
