THE MISSIONARY. MOUNT ZION, FltlDAff, APRIL 20, 1821. ‘The Rev. John Bascom in his tour to the South for his health, received a mission from the Congregational Missionary Society of Charleston. Ue travelled according to his directions, into the State of Georgia. On the 27th of January he arrived at Waynesborough. lie spent two days here, and preached on the Sabbath. He received the generous patronage of the good ladies of this place, who supported him for two months. And in ton weeks from the time he left it, he travelled seven hundred miles; visited the destitute chur ches in the upper part of the state, and made an excursion as far as lirainerd, a Missionary Station in the Cherokee Nation. During this period he pri ached sixty sermons, administered the Sacra ment of the Lord’s Supper three times, baptized one child, received two persons into full commu nion, attended six prayer meetings, visitoJ six schools, and as many families as he had opportu nity and ability. The Lord graciously carried him through all these labours and fatigues, and preserved ami improved his health. His minis trations were generally very well attended. He was treated with the greatest kindness by the (. liurches among which he laboured : and by peo ple generally whom he visited he was kindly re ceived and treated. He found the school at Br. inerd in a prosperous condition. g —*— At the Moravian Missionary Station at Spring place, in the Cherokee Nation, Mrs. Garabold deceased on the 20th of last February. At her funeral Ihe Rev. Mr. Smith preached an affection ate and appropriate discourse to a solemn audi ence which truly lamented the loss of this mother in Israel. She was a zealous and laborious ser vant of the Lord Jesus. For a considerable num ber of years the was a faithful and approved school teacher among the Cherokees at this sta tion. She was a shining light amidst a moral wilderness, a pattern of self-denial and good works. She died with a strong hope of a blessed immortality, and has left an affectionate husband, who appeared resigned to the will of God, calm and sedate under this severe affliction. She was useful while iu life. In answer to her prayers a goodly number of Cherokees have imbibed the Spirit of Christ, and embraced him as their Sa viour. Just before her death she waspreparing to go to anew station, to encounter new trials, and to endure new hardships. Her heart was hxed to live a life of self-denial while she contin ued on earth, and to wear herself out in trying to enlighten and christianize the heathen ; when her beloved Master released her from her toilsome pilgrimage, and received her home togiory. The session of Cayuga Presbytery, at Aurora, in tiio Slate of New York, in January last, was uncommonly interesting. So great a degree of tiie Divine Presence was manifested at the com munion and on the ensuing evening, that they det< rmined to lay aside their business, and to spend the time in religious exercises. Many members of the Presbytery expressed themselves in a very animating and affecting manner. Be fore they parted, they entered into a solemn cov enant to set apart a season at the going down of the sun, every Saturday, for earnest prayer to Cod for the out pouring of the Spirit upon the churches under their care. They agreed like wise to circulate a request in form of a tract among them, to assemble two or three at the A'-'ine place, and to enjoy together a season of ‘communion in prayer. Avery pleasing account of a revival of religion in Brutus, in the county of Cayuga, N. Y. was related at this meeting of the Presbytery. Mr. Pool, the Pastor of the Church in Brutus, observed, that such was the degenera cy in religion, that family worship was much neg lected hv Professors. They felt themselves una ble to support a preached Cospel any longer ; and the church actually assembled for the purpose of requesting Mr. Pool to receive a dismission from them. But while they were consulting upon it, filch a forcible conviction of the worth of the privileges of which they were about to deprive themselves, came upon them, that they could not proceed—But they spent the time in prayer.— bach an awakening soon followed, that five hun dred appeared under severe convictions ; and 20 j it was hoped, were made the subjects of renewing I it’ grace. There is much attention to religion also in , f * Auburn, which is near Brntns. Foreign ond Domcstick Intelligence. LATEST FROM ENGLAND. Liverpool dates to the 2ld Feb. have been re ceived by an arrival at Boston. Affair* of Naples. —An article from Laybach dateflEeb. 22, announces that the Austrian army pa-=ed the Po on Ihe 28th and 29th of January, and is advancing upon Naples by three different routes. Forty thousand men will first advance to ’he frontiers, who will announce, in case of resis tance, that they will be followed by 80,000 more. His majesty the King of Naples has addressed a proclamation to the inhabitants of the two Sici lles, in which lie orders the immediate dissolution of the parliament. He also calls on them to re ceive the Austrians as friends, and promises, on his return, to give them a constitution. Frankfort, Feb. 12. We just learn that a copy of the proclamation by the King of Naples has been received iu this place, and that it accords in substance with what is above stated. To the above we must add in brief, that the French papers last received, contain a variely of [paragraphs whose tendency is to confirm the omi- 1 bous intelligence that the Austrianarmy had posi tively ma-ched for Naples. • ~ M m Igndon,Ftb. 11. journals sustain a firm and res olutefohe. They state that 400,000 Neapolitans are already in arms in defence of their couptry, If, say they, the Swiss and the Americans, in far lesß numbers could resist Austria and England, shake off their yoke, and sustain their own inde pendence, the Neapolitans will be able to do as much ; and will shew to the whole of Europe, that seven millions of inhabitants will suffer no dictation respecting the laws by which (hey are to be governed. New levies of troops have been completed, and the most decisive measures are in operation among the Neapolitans to maintain their independence. The English ministry are accused by the oppo sition members of parliament, of having pursued a temporizing and pusillanimous policy iu regard to the interference of the allies in the affairs of Na ples. Lord Liverpool affirmed in reply, that they had no intention of engaging iu hostilities on one side or the other. Insurrection, at Madrid. —A second edition of the London Courier, of the 19th February, states, that a letter fiom Paris, has been received, ,of which the following is an extract: — “ While closing this letter, a note from the Spanish embassy informs roe, that yesterday a courier arrived in about six days from Spain, bringing news of a general insurrection at Madrid ; the king’s guard massacred ; his persou threaten ed—in short a most terrible catastrophe. This I unforlunately consider as official.” “On the slh the king went out at his usual hour. He had scarcely quitted the palace, when the most insulting cries were heard, mingled with those of ‘ Lire the King of the Constitution /’— The body guards, who were on duty, fell on the mob sword in hand, and some persons were wounded. [One account says, that some of the citizens were killed.] The municipality of Madrid sent a request to the king for the disbanding of the body guards, which was complied with. The members were to receive some other appointments. The accounts in the papers received at Phila delphia, do not appear positively to confirm the ; account received at Boston, that the Austrian i army was actually on its march for the invasion iof Naples. The Duke de Gallo, it seems, prime I minister of Naples under the constitutional gov ernment, had set out for Laybach, after the de parture of the king. He was stopped ou the road by- the Austrian officers, but ou representa tion being made to the allied sovereigns, he was allowed to proceed, and has joined the king of Naples at Laybach. And a letter from the latter place, of a recent date, announces that since his arrival, the negotiations and the conferences have taken a turn which encourages the hope that the tranquillity of Europe will not be disturbed. A private letter from Milan, of Jan. 22, men tions, ttiat several arrests have taken place there, supposed to have been concerned with political affairs. It was dangerous to speak of the affairs between Austria and Naples. It was rumoured that the Austrian army had made another move ment towards the Po, and that they were ordered to be ready to proceed for Naples at the shortest notice. A disturbance at Turin is spoken of as having caused considerable commotion ; “ in fact, (says the letter) every thing seems ripe for cora- I motion.” A paragraph from Augsbnrgh, Jan. 30, says they have not yet received any advice by the direct communication from Italy, of the pre tended Manifesto, or of the Declaration which W'as said to have been published at Laybach, ei ther by the Allied Powers, or by the King of Na ples. No confidence was placed in the account of its existence. An article from Naples, Jan. 20, says, no message from the King had reached them since his arrival at Laybach. Ministers at tributed this to the great fall of snow, which has impeded the communication. The Prince Regent has sent back to the Parliament the plan of con stitution submitted for his inspection, without sanctioning it. He lias indicated several altera tions that he w ishes to have made. These cor rections are very numerous, and all of them of very little importance. A list of them has just been published, and the replies made by the Commissioners. The following is the first: 1. You have not joined to the King’s name all titles attached to the crow'n and person ? Answer. The person who wrote the plan was in such haste, that be had not the time to write nil the titles: the Commissioner proposes to add them hereafter. The King of England has attended the Drury Lane and Covent Garden Theatres. The Times represents that he was coldly received by the audience ; but the ministerial papers say, “ The most beloved monarch that ever won the affec tions of a great and loyal people, never received from his subjects expressions of attachment, of devotion, of almost maddening rapture, surpassing those which burst forth yesterJay evening, when the King entered.” In regard to the Queen of England, the minis ters carry every thing by large majorifies. A de bate of two nights’ continuance took place in the House of Commons, on the sth and 6th of Febru ary, on a motion of the Marquis of Tavistock, “ That ministers, in adjourning the measures against the Queen, were not justified b v any con sideration of political expediency, and -that their conduct lias been productive of consequences derogatory from the dignity of the crown, and in jurious to the best interests of the country.” On a division the ministers had 148 majority. Lord Castlereagh alleged in the House of Com mons, that the newspapers which advocated the cause of the Queen, were paid by her. Mr. Hume and Mr. Wood promptly denied the charge and challenged bis Lordship to the proof, which was declined. T he Pope’s Nuncio, and all the foreign ambas sadoi and ministers at Paris, have congratulated the king upon his deliverance from the attempt made upon bis life in the palace of the Thuilleries, I on the 27th of January. A person named Neveu, I once a merchant, then a broker, and afterwards ! a bankrupt, was arrested in the street, as being i ■ the author of the plot. It was ascertained that : j be had bought several small packages of powder, j : At the moment he was entering the office of the commissary for examination, attended by two 1 police officers, when passing into the narrow cor ridor which leads to it, he cut his throat with a 1 j razor which he had concealed about his clothes, ; arid by a movement so quick that it was impos sible to stop him. He expired immediately. Several small packets, containing a whitish pow der, which is supposed to be poison, have been found upon him ; and a belt, which contained a considerable sum in gold. The Chambers of Peers and Deputies have presented addresses to the Icing on this occasion, expressive of their in dignation at the late attempt on his life, their de termination to rally around the throne, and their confidence that the machinatians of the ill-dispo sed will he frustrated. The reader will perceive by our extracts, that the trouble has not ceased with the death of Ne veu. Paris is kept in a state of continual agita tion, by the numerous explosions of gunpowder in the most publick parts of the city. The latest intelligence from Madrid gives us to understand, that the affairs of Spain are still in a very unsettled state, and that several of the local authoiities in different provinces had been arrested and sent.to prison. The late elections appear to have been conducted in the roost tumultuous manner. Letters from Rome announce, that the conduct of the Revolutionary Government of Spain has created the greatest sensation in’ that metropolis. A London paper of the 4th, says :—A report 1 was current yesterday, that his Majesty intended to sacrifice a- part of his income, and that he bad graciously declared his intention of complying with the wishes of his people, for the restoration ol her Majesty’s name in the Liturgy. We understand, that in consequence of the dif ficulties arising respecting the acuiissioti of the Queen’s name in the Liturgy, an intermediate course is to be adopted, tile introduction of a prayer into the Church service, in which the names of the Queen and the Duke of York will be inserted.—The wording of the prayer, it is added, is already determined. We understand that his Majesty’s coronation is positively fixed for the 18th of June next, the anniversary of the battle of Waterloo. Sir Francis Burdett has been fined 2,0001. and sentenced to three mouth’s imprisonment in the King’s Bench prison. His friends had offered to raise the sum by subscription, and he was accom panied to his place of confinement hy a large as semblage of persons. N. Y. paper. Extract of a letter from an officer on board the U. S. frigate Congress, to Ids father dated, ’ Chumf.-Pke, near Canton, Nov. 15. 11 By the arrival of a ship yesterday irom Manil la, we received a most melancholy account of the massacre of the foreigners there by (lie Indians. The cause of this bloody procedure, it is said, was this:—the cholera morbus had been raging there for sometime past, arid most of the foreign ers, influenced by the best motives, were admin istering medicines to check it. From the death of some who had received these medicines, they took up the strange notion that poison had been given them; and they-, therefore determined to try the experiment, and siezed on a French phy sician, in the streets, who always carried his med icines about him ; and on examining him, they found several bottles, one of which contained laudanum ; this they tried on a dog, and found that it killed him, which confirmed their suspi cions, and roused their fury to the highes.t pitch. They commenced with the poor physician, and extended it to every foreigner they could lay their hands on, not only Europeans, Sic. but even the poor Chinese were victims—thirty-five of the former and eighty- of the latter were out to pieces, whilst the goveruour of Manilla, with six thousand troops at his command, stood trembling by, with out attempting to interpose. Amongst the rest, the fate of midshipman Wilson, formerly of the Macedonian, was peculiarly distressing. He had left the Macedonian on account of ill health, and had arrived at Canton on his way home; his in tention was to have joined us, and therefore took passage for Manilla, where we then were, and arrived the very day we sailed. On the day of the insurrection, he was informed that a friend of bis was in danger ; he sallied out with two others, for the purpose of attempting his rescue, and him self met with ihe late from which he wished to save another.” It appears by recent accounts from Caraccas, via Havana, that the armistice entered into be tween Gen. Morillo and Gen. Bolivar, has been prolonged, at the instance of Don Miguel de la Torre, the successor of Gen. Morillo, and that Gen. Bolivar has also consented to the appoint ment of two Commissioners, on the part of the j government of Columbia, (Messrs. Echevaria and Revenga) who had sailed for Spain, for the pur pose of terminating, by negociution, the horrid war which has so long desolated those provinces. Char. Cour. Schenectady, N. Y. March 28. Melancholy Accident. —On the afternoon off the 19th in.t. while two lads, sons of Mr. Wm. | Bunn of Florida, were at play in their father’s j barn-yard, with a rope tied around their necks, some cattle took fright and got entangled in the rope, and before the lads could be extricated, one wasdaed and the other had his skull fractur ed. On the morning of the 20th the lad whose skull was fractured, was living—the physicians were preparing to trepan him, aud tntertained : hopes of his recovery. Horrible and Mysterious Murder ! Norfolk, Va. March 21. We have seldom read, either in the annals of real life or in the pages of romance, of deeds of blood and horrour equal in atrocity and shocking circumstances to one which has just fallen under our notice, the particulars of which as far as we have been able to collect them, we here lay be fore our readers i About the first of this month, two Frenchmeu came to this place from Baltimore, and rented a small dwelling house in a retired situation, near i Plume’s rope-walk, but seldom made use of it, and then only at night. Their mysterious move -1 ments excited considerable curiosity in the neigh bourhood, and even suspicions not altogether la ! vourable to them. j Yesterday morning these two men and a third, i were observ ed to be in the bouse, and between ! nine and ten o’clock a Mrs. Lester, residing in an \ adjoining tenement, was alarmed by a sudden ! cry, which seemed to he the cry of • murder / ! ! Some time after, two of the men left the house, i Mrs. Lester, under the conviction that there was j something amiss going on in the house, related I the circumstauces to a constable, who entered the J house, and discovered a spectacle truly horrible and revolting to every feeling of humanity. In a chamber of the second story, was extended on the floor the naked trunk of a human being, di vested of its head and limbs, and in the fire place j lay the head, feet aud hands, burnt almost to cin ders ! The arms were separated from the body at the shoulder joints, aud again divided at the el bow's ; and the legs cut apart at the joints of the knees—indeed the whole infernal separation ap peared to be performed by a skilful surgeon. The | limbs thus separated, were thrown together in a | bucket. On the floor lay an axe, besmeared with i blood, with which the diabolical authors of this . | foul massacre had dispatched their victim, and two butcher knives, which had served the office | J of dissection. j A coroner’s inquest was immediately summoned I —but no evidence appeared which could in the ( slightest degree criminate any known individual, j, ■ Neither the name of the deceased nor that of his \ companion could he ascertained with certainty, | ; and all the account that could be given of them ( ; amounted to no more than what we have before stated, except that they had been seen the night before at a house of no good repute in Church-st. . and the verdict of the Jury was, as a matter of ‘ course, “ Wilful murder by some person or per- j | sons unknown.” I . There was no furniture of any kind in the house, save a few articles of bedding, and two ; trunks. What then could have been the purpose of these people in taking the house ? In one of the trunks were a number of articles of valuable clothing ; in the other a number of valuable watches, watch chains and sundry arti cles of jewelry. On the floor, too, was an elegant gold patent lever watch. The object in commit ting the murder could not have been plunder, or the murderers would have secured these valuables. What then could have been the motive ? We can imagine no other but revenge. In one of the trunks was found a masonick di- | plorna, from the Grand Lodge of Maryland, filled i up in the name of Peter Lagoardette, and dated j City of Baltimore, 21st Dec. 1820. But whether] that was the name of the deceased, or of his com-1 panion, or indeed of either of them is a matter of! uncertainty. March 22— Noon. Extract of a letter. I hove just time to tell” yon tbcf the murderers 187 are taken, and are now undergoing an examina tion at the court houte. These men (Spaniards) arrived here on the tenth of this month, from Bal timore, and passed by the names of Jose Garcia and Juan Gomez. STILL LATER. Murder confessed. —Manuel Philip Garcia, one of the two Spaniards committed to our jail for the murder of Peter Lagaudelte, has made a con fession of the facts, and circumstances of that horrid transaction to the Mayor, but as the case is to be brought before the examining Court to day, we forbear for the present to detail them. All that we feel ourselves at liberty to state is, that the confession goes to acquit the confessor, while it fixes the whole upon bis comrade, whose real name he says is Demar Garcia Castiiano. No other motive is suggested tor the perpetration of the murder than a quarrel of some month’s standing between Laguadette and Castiiano, re specting a girl in Baltimore, by the name of Biu n ey. It was expected that this man’s confession would have developed other crimes and led to the discovery of their agents; but he has impli cated no individual but Castiiano.— Nor. Herald. A Ncw-York paper states that in many shops in that city, ardent spirits is sold at one cent a glass. A barber, who shaves fer sis cents, gives a glass of liquor in the bargain, and has as many customers as he can serve. With 1600 licensed dram shop o , and liquor retailed at two cents a gill, what can be expected but a constant increase of intemperance, morality and pauperism. u When at Milan, (says the R.ev. Mr. Berrien, a late American traveller in Italy,) I inquired at a store where they sold pictures and antiques, for a small specimen of basso relievo, observing that it would be a curiosity in America. The remaik diverted the shop-keeper from the sale es his goods. He broke out into an animated eulogium of our country, and listened with an inquisitive eager ness to every thing that was said of it. Then comparing our prosperity and treedom with their poverty and humiliation, his countenance fell, his voice changed, and he seemed to be oppressed by feelings which he could not refrain from betray ing to a stranger. “ Commerce,” said he, “is perishing—ltaly now hangs down her head—if a boy sings too loud in the streets he is imprisoned —and a domination which we abhor we are still obliged to respect and obey. America,” he add ed, “ is the common subject of conversation at the coffee-houses.” Census of 1820.—Savannah, 7523. Maryland, 407,300. Connecticut, 275,248. Maine, 297, 839. New Hampshire,244,l6l. New York, by the new census the increase of population for thirty-one counties of that state is 272,847. The New-York American says, “ If the remaining eigh teen counties have encreased in an equal ratio as the thirty-one; the number es inhabitants in the state of New-York will exceed 1,350,000. Our population in 1810, was 959,220.” The pop ulation of the City of New-York is 123,706. In 1810 there were 364 newspapers printed in the United States, thera are now probably 600) —of these New Hampshire had 12 ; Massachu setts 38 ; Rhode Island 7 ; Connecticut 11 ; Ver mont 14; New York 66 ; Pennsylvania 71 ; Delaware 2 : Maryland 24 ; New Jersey 8 ; (now’ 17) ; Virginia 23 ; North Carolina 10 ; South Carolina 10 ; Georgia 13 ; Kentucky 17 ; Ohio 14; Indiana 1 ; Mississippi 1, (now 8) and N. Orleans 10. Os these, 9 were published before the Revolution ; 262 were weekly ; 8 printed in German, 5 in French and 2 in Spanish. In 1808 there were 16 daily papers published in London ; 9 three times a week ; 17 on Sun days ; once a week on other days 19 —making a total of 61 newspaper establishments in London. There were 98 country papers in England in 1808. 35 in Ireland, and 19 in Scotland. Total, in England, Ireland and Scotland, 213. Mr. Albert Anderson of New York, being about to retire into the country, offers for sale what he terms a proportion of his real estate.— He enumerates eighteen houses, and warehouses, mostly brick, of three stories, and sixteen lots.— We should suppose the gentleman, in|Ml proba bility, could afford to retire from business, even if this was a considerable portion of his estate. The whole number of boats which passed the j Falls of Ohio last year, is estimated to be 2,400, wafting the rich produce of the western world to the markets on the seaboard ; the principal part of which consisted of 1,804,810 lbs. of bacon,2oo, 000 bis. flour, 20,000 bis. pork, 62,000 bushels oats, 100,000 bush, corn, 10,000 barrels cheese, 160,000 lbs. butter, 1,207,333 fowls and 466,412 lbs. oflard. i In 1801, it was estimated that 24 million bush els of grain, valued at 14 millions of dollars, were made into drinks in G. Britain. In 1804 there were eight million lbs. of wool imported into G. Britain from Spain.

Died, at Trieste, Dec. 25, of consumption, count Fouche, Duke of Otranto, formerly Senator of France, and Bonaparte’s Minister of the Inte '< riour. His talents are known to the world. He filled a large space during the French Revolution, and voted for the death of Louis 16th. After the return of Louis 18th, he was reappointed minis ter of the interiour, and it was during his admin istration that the Proscription Lists were passed. On this occasion a laeouick correspondence took place between him and Carnot, the Ex-Minister of War. Fouche, as minister, directed Carnot to leave Paris, on which Carnot wrote : “ Traitre ! Ou veux tu queje me retire ? Car not. [Where do you wish me to retire to, trai tor ?] And the answer was returned : “ Ou tu voudras, Imbecile.— Otranto.” [“ Where you please, Fool.] Afterwards Fouche, as a Regicide, was exp. 1- Jed France, and has resided in different part- of the Austrian dominions, and died as above. His last words to his wife were, “ Now you may re turn to France.” General Meeting of the Members of the BAPTIST CHURCH will be held at the Meeting House on Fort Creek, in Hancock County, commencing on Friday before the Fifth Sabbath in this month.

April 4fh, 1821. 3w46 The following notice of the above work is from the Edinburgh Review for August 1320 : “ M bile we are upon the subject of American literature, we think ourselves called upon to state, that we have lately received two Numbers, being those for January and April last, of ‘ The North American Renew, or Miscellaneous Journal,’ published quarterly at Boston, which appears to us to be by tar the best and most promising pro j duction of the press of that country that has ever come to our hands. It is written with great spir | it, learning and ability, on a great variely of sub j jeets ; and abounds with profound and original discussions on the most interesting topicks.— Though abundantly patriotic!!, or rather national, there is nothing offensiv e or absolutely unreasona ble in the-tone of its politicks; and no very rep rehensible marks either of national partialities or antipathies. The style is generally pood, though with considerable exceptions—and sins oflener from affectation than ignorance. But the work is of a powerful and masculine charade r, and is ; decidedly superiour to any thing of the kind that existed iu Europe 20 years ago. “ It is a proud thing for us to see Quarterly Re views propagating bold truths and original specu . lotions in all quarters ol the world ; and when we i grow old and stupid ourselves, we hope still to be I honoured in the talents and merits of those heirs of our principles and children of pur example.” J. k H: Ely, BOOKSELLERS—AVGUST.I, (GEO.)
