General Intelligence. -- ■■ ■ —-y- ■■*■■■■— 1 - Internal Improvements in N. York. —The Al bany Register states, that 9000 men are employ ed on the Canals in that state, viz.—lsCo on the Northern, or Lake Champlain Canal, and 7,500 on the Grand Canal between Lake Erie and the Hudson. To the middle section of the latter about 70 miles will be added this season, making ‘ nearly the whole distance navigable between 1 Utica and Montezuma. A flight of five locks at the Little Falls on the Mohawk, is declared to be superiour to any similar work in America, and in point of neat execution and durability may chal lenge the world. It is said that this great work has been solely planned and conducted in every department, except in the manual labour of ex cavating, &e. hy native citizens—a circumstance 1 which is in the highest degree ereditable to American genius. A Fever of a very fatal description prevailed at j the last dates in Alexandria. Five or six persons i were dying daily. At Shepherdstown, Va. the . sickness is so great, that in many families not a ] single individual is spared. Happily the mortality bears no proportion to the number of the sick. The sickness at Norfolk is abating. Cases of ma lignant fever still occur at Baltimore. The Sa vannah Board of Health have announced the ter mination of the autumnal disease in that city.— The cases of yellow fever at St. Augustine con tinued to increase. Mr. R. W. Edes, editor of the Florida Gazette, died on the 15th inst. The Cotton in Louisiana has suffered severely from the Rot; the N. Orleans papers state that not more than half a crop will be made. In N. Carolina the cotton crops were very promising. Much damage has been sustained at Mobile, Pensacola, and New Orleans, by heavy gales of 1 wind. Several vessels with their crews, have been lost. A wreck had floated ashore at the bay of St. Louis, and among the drowned the bodies of Dr. Ludlow, his wife and two children were recognized. Ninety-one thousand one hundred and ninety four bales of Cotton were received in the city of New York during the last eleven months. The value of cotton yearly grown in this country, al lowing a bale to be worth 50 dollars, is estimated at twenty-five millions. Two hundred and nine’ ty bales are said to be consumed weekly at the manufactories which receive their supplies from Providence, R. I. Judge Washington has decided in the Circuit Court of the U. S. that a bill of exchange drawn in ene State upon a person in another State, is a foreign bill of exchange. Governour Jackson has lately left Pensacola, and returned with his family to his estate in Ten nessee. On leaving the territory he addressed a Proclamation to the citizens, announcing, that the ■ temporary organization of the government of the Floridas was complete; and stating that conside- > ration* of a personal nature, and the situation of his family rendered his intended absence from the country indispensable. The government of the Kastern Province devolve* on J. W. Worthing ton, Esq. and that of the Western on Col. G. Walton, Secretaries of the same. The Govern <wr, in his proclamation, after stating that he had organized the government in the best manner he could, considering the difficulties which he had necessarily to encounter, thus alludes to the ar rest of Callava, and the seizure of his papers: “I have made no discrimination of persons, my house has been surrounded by no guards, no one has been kept at a distance by repulsive for malities, all have had free admittance, and found a readv ear, when they required my aid for the protection of their rights. The A meriean govern ment, at the same time that it is the freest, is per haps the strongest in the world; because, the most wealthy and most powerful in society, are as weak in opposition to it, as the most humble and obscure. It knows no distinction between an ex-governour and a peasant. In the course of my short administration, one case has unfortu nately occurred, which required the exertion of that authority which is no respecter of persons. JThat the necessity should have existed, has occa sioned me pain and regret: and especially as it has been misunderstood by some of the inhabi tants of this country, from a want of a sufficient acquaintance with the facts of H.ecase, as well as i with the character and-principles of our govern- I merit. It was my duty under the treaty, exer- | cising the government in the Floridas, to secure to | the inhabitants all the evidence of their right of property. The improper conduct of the captain general of Havanna, in withholding documents 1 or archives of this nature, from an agent expressly i sent to receive them, increased the necessity of vigilance on my part. It was made known to me ; by satisfactory’ evidence, that there were docu ments of this character in the hand* of an indi vidual here, and that these documents were necessary to establish the right of property in this country. The fact ascertained, my duty was clear, and no alternative was left me. That indi vidual was ordered to surrender them, so that in pursuance of tiie second article of the treaty, and of mv proclamation, the inhabitants might he se i cured in their right of property. The individual \thn* ordered to deliver them, instead of obeying as he ought the commands of the government un der which he was protected, and which could know no superiour, excepting the congress or’ president oftlie United States, shifted them into the hands of the person who lately administered the government of this province, and who had been authorized by the captain general of Cuba to surrender the country agreeably to the stipula tions’ of the treaty. This person, whether from misapprehension, or from worse motives, consid ered himself not responsible for any act of his to the government of the Floridas, and appeared en tirely insensible to the impropriety of not having mndt a delivery of these documents of his own accord. W hatever diplomatick privileges he might’ have been entitled to, these privileges had ceased upon the surrender of this country, and he was then not known to me, or recognized as having any other rights than those of a common individ ual. It was not enough for him to consider him self a publick agent of the king of Spain, and re side here for the purpose of transacting official business with the agents of the United States, but it was necessary that he should have made known the object and purpose of his stay ; had lie done so, he would have been informed at once by uie, that my own functions having ceased as commissioner, no one but the president of the U. States had any power to give him permission to j remain here as a diplomatick agent enjoying the ‘■ privileges if a foreign minister. The natural I consequences of his conduetare too well known, | aid need not be detailed. With the exception of| this solitary instance, I feel the utmost confidence | ‘ in saving that nothing has occurred, notwith-, , standing the numerous cases in which I have’ been called upon to interpose my authority, eith-’ , er in a judicial or executive capacity, to occasion I any thing like disgust, discontent, or want of i confidence, and I cheerfully take this occasion to express my satisfaction with the peaceful, obe dient and orderly conduct of all those whose al-! legiance has been transferred to the United States j . hy the cession of the country.” I No allusion is made by General Jackson to the ■ difficulty which arose between him and Judge’ Fromentin on account of the writ of habeas corpus , issued by the latter in favour of Col. Callava ; j & the only particulars which we have seen respect- 1 ing this unfortunate difference are given in the I following extracts of a letter from Pensacola, [ published in the Southern Patriot. The writer! asserts that the Judge believed himself legally! vested with the necessary authority to issue the j writ, but being unwilling to prejudice the question ‘ relative to the papers demanded, he made the j friends of Callava give security to the amount of! 40,000 dollars that these papers should be forth coming whenever the right to them should be fairly determined. The letter then adds: “ The return made by general Jackson to this habeas corpus, was a citation to Judge Fromen tin to appear before him, to shew Cause why he should not be attached for a coatempt offered to I a superiour tribunal, in the act of issuing that; writ. In the mean time Callava was discharged, after his sealed box had been broken open and the papers taken off, and the further prosecution! of the remedy of the habeas corpus became of; course immaterial. _ ! “ An unwillingness to be openly embroiled with 1 the governour, however, induced Judge Fromen tin to tall privately on gen. Jackson the ensuing! day, not with an idea of obeying the citation, but as an expression of individual and official respect, j But he had no reason to be satisfied with the re-! suit of this visit. Gen. Jackson told himexpli-| citly, and afterwards repeated it to others, “ that be should have been punished had he gone one step further.” Gen. Jackson, it seems, insisted that he had acted towards col. Callava in his su preme judicial capacity , and that taking him into custody was justifiable on the ground of contempt, manifested in his tardy compliance with the order to deliver the papers. “ These events transpired on the 23d and 25th - of August, and from that time until the 3d Sept. 1 very little else was talked of in Pensacola. In I the course of that time a report got into circula tion, and reached the ears of Judge Fromentin, that on his visit to gen. Jackson he had made an apology for issuing the writ of habeas corpus, and thereby escaped punishment. “ Unfortunately, instead of merely contradict ing the story and disregarding it, he thought it in cumbent upon him to rescue his judicial charac ter from the odium of such a suggestion, and ad dressed a letter to general Jackson, respectfully requesting the general “to enable him effectually to contradict that report.” “ But general Jackson maintained that he had done so ; and judge Fromentin treated it as an injurious suggestion. This excited general Jack son to a final answer, which his best friends and warmest admirers will ever regret that his pen had produced. Detailed accounts of the whole I affair, with copies of the correspondence, have been transmitted to Washington, and we regret i to add, that copies of the correspondence have 1 been confided to individuals and are circulating ! privately.” Proclamation of the Greek Senate to the Cit izens of the United States ! The following Proclamation was received at Boston from Paris, accompanied by a request that it should be circulated throughout the Union. The remark that America had sent her children to the Greek schools, probably refers to Messrs. Parsons and Fisk, our Missionaries to Jerusalem, who passed some time with Professor Bambas, a Greek instructer, in order to make themselves acquainted with the language of his countrymen. Kalamata, whence this proclamation issues, is a small town in the Morea, at the head of the an cient Messenian gulf. Tbe letter which accom panied it is signed, “P. Epites, deputy of the Grecian Generals.” Citisens of the United States of America ! In taking the resolution to live and die for liber ty, we feel ourselves drawn toward you by a na tural sympathy. It is among you, that liberty has found her abode, and she is worshipped by you as by our fathers. In invoking her name we in voke yours; feeling that in imitating you we im itate our own ancestors, and that we shall show ourselves worthy of them, in proportion as we re semble you. Though separated from you, Americans, by | mighty oceans, we are drawn near to you by your j virtues. We feel you to be nearer to us than the ! nations on our frontiers, and we regard you as I friends, fellow-citizens and brethren, because you are just, benevolent and generous. Just, for you ; are free : Benevolent and generous, for your laws 1 are the laws of the Gospel. Your freedom does I not rest on the slavery of other nations, nor your happiness on their oppression and woes. On the contrary, free and prosperous yourselves, you wish that all men should partake these blessings, and enjoy the rights which nature intended for all. It is you who first asserted these rights, and you who have first again recognized them, in re storing to the oppressed Africans (he character of j Men. It is your example which has led Europe j to abolish that shameful and cruel traffick in hu j man flesh ; from you, that she learns the lessons of justice and the duty of reforming tier abanrd , and sanguinary custom*. This glory, Americans, is exclusively yours, and exalts you above all the nations renowned for good government and free dom. It is now for you to perfect your glory, in aid ing us to purge Greece from the barbarians, who for centuries have polluted it. Surely it is wor thy of you to discharge the duty of all civilized nations, in expelling ignorance and barbarity from the native soil of the arts and of freedom. You will not imitate the culpable indilfereuce, or rather the long continued ingratitude of some Eu-’ ropean nations. No—the country of Penn, of Franklin, and of Washington, cannot refuse her aid to the descendants of Phocion, Thrasybulus, Aratus and Philopoemen. You have already evin ced your confidence in them, by sending your children to their schools. You know with what joy they have been received, and the steady kindness and attention of which they have been the objects. If they have done this in bondage, what will not be their friendship and attachment to you, when by your aid they shall have burst their fetters ? Greece will then oiler you the ad vantages which you would seek in vain from her ignorant and ferocious oppressors. The tie* of fraternity and kindness will forever unite the Gre cians and Americans—and our mutual interests are such as to strengthen forever an alliance foun ded on liberty and virtue. Kalamata, May 25, (June 6) 1821. (Signed)—The Messenian Senate of Kala mata. Peter M&vromichalqs, Commander in Chief. LATEST MOM ENGLAND. Arrived at N. Yorlthe ship Robert Fulton, 43 days from LiverpooL bringing London dates to sth Sept. The principal artkle 6f intelligence furnished by this arrival, relatti to the affairs of the Turks. It appears from accoints which wear the appear ance of authenticity, that the Divan has assented, in an unqualified manner, to the demands of Russia.—Nevertheless, as a notification to the Russian Ambassador,'of the agreement to these propositions, did not arrive until several hours af ter the time appointed, he demanded his passports iu the most peremptory manner,and actually sailed for Odessa.—The Porte immediately sent two messengers to St. Petersburg!), and as the ship in which the Ambassador had embarked, was de tained by head winds, hopes were entertained by the Turks, that an answer would be received in time to prevent his absolute departure. A Lon don article of September 2nd, says The Paris papers of Tuesday and Wednesday have arrived. The intelligence brought by those of the latter day, is rather of a warlike character, as respects the negotiations between Russia and Turkey. It appears certain, that Baron Strogo noff had sailed for Odessa, and that his departure had been followed by some movements amongst the Russian troops on the Pruth, indicative of a peremptory appeal to arms. We find it mention ed, also, in one account, that the Porte did not signify its unconditional acquiescence to the ulti matum of the Imperial Cabinet, but proposed some modifications. If this should turn out to be the fact, it would explain more satisfactorily the conduct of Strogonoff, who might be justified, by his instructions, in refusing any qualified acces sion to the terms proposed by his Government. But had there been an entire and complete ac ceptance of these terms, and the Russian Am bassador, acting upn a point of mere punctilio, with respect to the delay of a p.w hours, (it hav ing been previously signified they were accepted) had abruptly closed the negotiation, very little could be said in favour of the conciliatory spirit in which they- were propounded. With the in formation at present before ui, however, we can neither reconcile these conflicting accounts, nor argue, very confidently upon any of them. N. Y. Com. Advertiser. Milledgeville, Oot. 30. The arrangements by the Commissioners for drawing the Land Lottery are nearly completed. The number of tracts to be drawn for, is about 15,000 —the names given in for draws between 42 and 43,000 —Nearly two blanks to a prize. The Surveyors represent the quality of the land as in general very iuferiour to the representations heretofore given of it. Ploughing. —At the late Brighton [Mass.] Cat tle Show and Exhibition of Manufactures, the Ploughing for premiums took place on lots of a quarter of an acre each. One ploughman, with one yoke of oxen, performed the task in 42 min utes ; another in 53. A ploughman with one yoke of oxen and a driver, performed it in 38 minutes, another in 49 ; and another in 56. A ploughman with two yoke of oxen, and a driver, performed it in 54 minutes. The schooner Calypso, which sailed from this port yesterday for Sierra Leone, was fitted out by an aged aud respectable black man by the’ name of Creighton, who had accumulated con siderable property in this city by following the trade of a barber. He with his family and seve , ral other free persons of colour, have gone for the purpose of settling, and spending the remainder of their days upon the coast of Africa. It is wor ; thy of remark, that although Creighton was the ; owner of several slaves, to all of whom be offered ! the choice, either to accompany him in bis expe ! dilion, and have their freedom, or to be sold and | remain in this country, oely one could be prevail ied upon to proceed with him—and that one very much against his inclination.— Charleston Cour. GREAT CATTLE. From the Springfield , Mass. Patriot. We challenge the whole world to compete with Old Springfield ! Two seven year old oxen, and . one four years old steer, raised by Col. Abel Cha- I pin, of this town, were .driven to this village from i ins farm in Chicopee parish, on Wednesday last, ! and their we : ght accurately determined. The I weight of the great ox which Col. Chapin sold in Boston 3 years ago, and which was distinguished by the name of Maximus, was 27161b5. The largest oft hose weighed on Wednesday and which we must now call Trigmegistus, weighed 3028 The next in weight 2609 The steer 2156 “ The best actors in the world, either for trag edy, comedy, history, pastoral, pastoral-comical, historical-pastoral, tragical-historical, tragical comical-historical-pastoral, scene individable, or poem unlimited. Seneca cannot be too heavy, nor Plautus too light. For the law of writ, and the liberty, these are the men.” Shakespeare. What a pity that our “ unrivalled ” “ unparal leled” corps dramatique should be thus held up to the notice of that publick whose taste and morals they have done so much to polish and improve ! “ We present [say the Grand Jury of Jasper County] as a grievance, the encouragement giv en to strolling showmen and Stage Platers ; we conceive they are a serious evil to a commu nity, circumstanced as we are ; they draw youth from their schools, rnechanicks from their shops, merchants from their counters, clerks from their proper duties, and nave their effect upon almost every- order of our citizens ; they are a serious ex pense, and leave little or nothing that can be cal led good behind them ; we believe that the effects ’ of these publick amusements, as they are called, have no better effect on our moral habits, than on our political interests. The pieces usually performed, and what we have mderstood to be the conduct of some of the actois, place this sub ject in a point of light which ncels no comment.” DIED, On Saturday, the 13th of October, (at the seat of his Uncle, the Hon. William Cranch) Richard C. Norton, Esq. aged 31 years. This gentleman was not less distinguished for uncommon vigour of understanding and extensive literary acquirements than for native purity of mind, unblemished correctness of principles and unaffected piety. These interesting qualities and a heart sensibly alive to the feelings of others, had endeared him to an extensive and numerous circle of friends— enemies he had none. All who intimately knew him, and bad discern ed the intrinsick excellence of hi| character, fond ly cherished his society- and severely lament his death. In recording the dispensation which has hurried this exemplary man and citizen and accomplished scholar to an early tomb, we perform a painful duty. “He lived without guile, and died with out reproach.” —Alexandria ( D.
