If r ou approve of the suggestion, you will please tolgive notice to female societies to furnish cloth ii future. A quantity of sewing thread, needles, t rubles and scissors, which might be furnished l these societies, will be needed.

The expenditures i mi to be far ahead of the progress of the mis ! n. I have a consciousness that nothing has ] en wanting on my part to have the buildings j -warded as speedily as possible, and at as little i pense as the nature of the cate would admit. 1 mve ever regretted that we had so large a fam j to support, which afforded so few labourers. iope the Society will, in fature, guard against a j ie procedure, and be more particular in inquir i g into the character of families, which they may ink of employ ing. My burden has been greatly increased, my feelings have been much hurt, and j tie progress of the Mission retarded by the im j proper conduct of one of the families employed Ibjf lie Society last fall. r Ir it would be judged consistent with the ob ! set of the Society, I should advise that we hire 1 Jack people in future, as labourers. These iould probably be had on better terms than white abourers. The expense of providing for them ; vould be less, and by employing one steady, in-; lustrious white man to labour with them and at- ’ end to them, I believe we could have more work lone. The difficulty of procuring white men, and ,he uncertainty as to the length of time they I vould stay with me, has suggested this arrange nent. It is indispensable that we have 20 or 25 , pcres of land cleared next winter for cultivation ! fcext season. About 40 acres well cultivated, I - Jielieve would supply the family. We should, if j possible, be independent of our neighbours in (his fespect. We should also endeavour to raise stock | Jo supply the family with meat. This is attended with some difficulty in this country. Beasts of , jprey are very plenty, particularly wolves, which ; are destructive to stock. The stock at present j Belonging to the Mission are 15 milch cows with ,<heir calves, valued at sls each. 1 expect in ,the ifonrse of next spring to receive the balance subscribed, and perhaps, some more : twenty-four ;Wine, worth $49: one horse, worth SIOO. The other property may be worth about S6O. Should there be a family or families coming on this fall, it would certainly be better to purchase a wagon and team to transport them than to hire. The Society has already paid out for the hire of a , wagon and team, a sum sufficient to have pur-! chased a good wagon. If you have no families to send on, I expect 1 can procure a wagon and team in Tennessee on better terms than you can j in South Carolina. I hope you will use some ex- i ertion to have me supplied as soon as possible. After Mr. Pickens leaves me, my business must unavoidably be suspended for a while. Dear brother, the work in which we are enga j ged, is of immense magnitude. It calls for our united prayers and efforts. It demands unwea ried diligence to meet every emergency, and con stant application, to have everj want supplied. We must expect delays and discouragements in 1 our way ‘These are necessary for the trial of our faith and patience, and to convince us that we are dependent creatures Yet we must not be ; weary iu well doing. In the Lord’s own time we | will reap the fruit of our labours. I seem, as yet,, to have done nothing. I cannot say that I have j been instrumental in the conversion of a single 1 heathen to the service of the Lord. A decent j and regular attendance upon my ministrations, is ♦he only encouragement which I have had. The . Indian woman, mentioned in the journal of the i 6th of May, as being seriously impressed, has at-1 tended meeting but once since I have no , doubt she is restsained by her husband. 1 I have no way of ascertaining the state of her mind, ! for waut of an interpreter. This is a circumstance ever to be lamented. If convenient, please to send me a quantity of tracts, assorted. These are read with considera ble interest by those who are able to read. u The Swearer’s Prayer,” “ Thoughts on the Observa tion of the Sabbath,” and the tract entitled, *“ The True Prophecies,” might be useful in this country. I wish it to be understood by the Society that they no longer consider themselves indebted to me for my services during my tour among the In dians, with Mr. Humphreys. I would rather add to their funds than diminish them, were it iy my power. Tearing that this communication could not reach Columbia before you set out for Synod, 1 shall direct it to Washington, Georgia. Let me hem i rom j. ou immediately after Synod. Give the most interesting particulars of the meet ing. Give my love to the brethren. Pray for me and the heathen around me. Affectionately yours, THOMAS C. STUART. Rev. T. Charlton Henry. THE MISSIONARY. MOUNT ZION, MONDAY, NOVEMBER 26. We have given to our readers, in this day’s pa per, copious extracts from a letter addressed to the Corresponding Secretary of the Missionary Society >f (he Synod of South Carolina and Geor gia, by the Rev. Mr. Stewart, the Missionary sta tioned at Monroe. It appears from t'.is commu nication, as well as from documents already be fore the publick, that this mission among the \Chickasaws is yet in its infancy, and that much labour and perseverance are necessary for the at tainment of those desirable objects proposed by its founders and patrons. In the prosecution of this business, funds are indispensably necessary ; and unless the pious and the liberal come forward for the support of the newly established mission, these poor heathen must be abandoned by the man of God who has gone to instruct them in sci ence and religion, and what has already been ex pended upon this enterprise, must be thrown away forever. Two things we would wish especially to impress upon the publick mind. One is, that the attempt to evangelize the nations upon our borders, affords every rational hope of success; and the other, I that we are far behind our brethren in other parts j of Christendom, in promoting the active schemes —of benevolence which are now exciting the ener- ! gits of the world. We feel no hesitation in saying, that the : scheme of Indian reformation is practicable. On this point, theory has been solved by experience. It has long been acknowledged by all who have i any correct information on the subject, that the Aborigines of the American continent are not in feriour, in original genius, to the natives of any , country. Their perceptions are quick and accu rate—their imaginations lively and vivid—their ‘ memories ready and retentive—and their reason-1 ing powers as correct and vigorous as oould be expected in minds of the highest intellectual or der, which have hardly received the first rudi ments of instruction. If we would learn what ed ucation can do for thes long-benighted children of the forest, we must go to the Chkrokeks,w!io, under the guidance of Missionaries, are rapidly emerging from barbarism,and preparing to assume and maintain a rank among those who were born and nurtured under the fostering influence of the best political and religious institutions. The facts which are before the puhlick an this point, can not be controverted ; and they are ofsuch a cha racter and exist in such numbers as to confute all the gloomy and sarcastick predictions of those, who have adopted as a kind ot fundamental arti cle of their creed, the sentiment, that savages cannot be benefited by instruction. The Choc taws too have opened their arms for the most cor dial reception of Missionaries ; and the labourers at Elliot have met with every encouragement in the prosecution of their work,which could have been authorized by a rational contemplation of the means which have been employed, and the obstacles of ignorance and prejudice which were to be sinuiounted before the first promises of hope could be realized. And the Cuickasaws are not less favourable to instruction. Here is presented before us an extended field already white “to the harvest ; and he that reapeth shall receive a re- i ward, and gather fruit onto life eternal. These j savages can be tamed ; and it is the duty of those I who are in the quiet and happy possession of all 1 the blessings which civilization and Christianity can bestow, to employ, without delay, the ne cessary meals for extending the same blessings to 1 them. After an impartial survey of different sections of the Christian Church in our own country, we are constrained to say, that we are far behind our Northern and Eastern brethren in our zeal and ex penditures for propagating die gospel and evan gelizing the world. In proportion to our means we have done very little indeed to enlighten the savages upon our own borders, or to erect the standard of the cross and to insure its triumphs among the pagans of another hemisphere. In this great concern we have been indifferent too long already ; and it is high time, that we should now feel the dreadful responsibilities which rest upon us. The blood of souls will be required at our hands, if the cries of perishiug immortals : pass unheeded, and if v e fly not in time to their relief. It is true, that something has been done of late for the promotion of the Missionary cause r in this part of our country and in these efforts ! every friend of Zion must rejoice. But how much more might be accomplished if the demands of the heathen were duly weighed—how much more would be speedily effected if the spirit of Christ were more deeply to pervade the bosom of the Southern Church. j Let it not be supposed, that we would depre ! ciate any of the exertions which have been made jof late for the neighbouring tribes of Indians. To us it is deemed a favourable omtn, that these ex j ertions have been simultaneously commenced by ’ different denominations of Christians; and it j might be difficult to say whether the Baptist, ! Methodist, or Presbyterian church has manifested : most zeal, liberality and self denial in this glorious , work in which angels might desire to engage. We wish prosperity to all—and in order that all the good may be accomplished which our means ap pear to authorize us to expect, we would deßire to leave the impression on the heart of every Christian, that God will require these heathen at our hands.

The Bill introduced by Vir Harden, for estab lishing a Board of Publiok Works, and contem plating extensive Internal Improvements, has been rejected by the Senate, 24 to 20. It has been since modified, and is again under consideration. A bill has passed the Senate for amending the Constitution so as o authorize the election of Governour by the people. The bill provides that a majority of all the votes given shall be necessa ry to a choice ; and in the event of there being no choice by the people, the Legislature shall proceed to elect one of the two candidates hav ing the highest number of votes. A proposition is before a committee of the House to remove the seat of government west wardly. For*. Hawkins is the place designated by the friends of the proposed removal. General Intelligence. In consequence of the heavy rains of the past week, no mail has been received from Augusta since Thursday last, and to this circumstance must be imputed the barrenness of our news de partment. The latest English dates are only to the 2ist September ; and arrivals are anxiously looked for by the speculators in cotton,flour,&c. who are pla ced in no very agreeable suspense by the unusual period which has elapsed since the receipt of any information from the English markets. The price of Flour in the northern cities, which was consid erably advanced by the last news from England, is declining. The sales of Cotton in Augusta on Monday last, were brisk at 13 o 16 1-4. London, September 15. We have received, this morning, the Paris Pa pers of Monday and Tuesday last. Their con tents are of considerable importance, particularly in what relates, to Spain, where every day more fierce, and the revolution seems hourly hastening tc that close which every un prejudiced observer, who marked its origin and watched its progress, must have anticipated. Scene by scene, and not by act, the drama has I gone on, developing its plot and unfojding its characters with as much consistency as the most skilfully constructed tragedy.—What is now the situation of the country, and what the situation of ; the King ? The former is convulsed with dissen tions, conspiracies and civil war ; the latter, in sulted, defied, and all but dethroned. The very copious extracts which we have given preclude us today from entering more largely upon the i ominous aspect of affairs in that conptry ; but our readers need only peruse the intelligence we lay before them, duly to appreciate a crisis which appears inevitable. —Courier. The papers also contain a Turkish document of some interest, though it is too long to give to day. We allude to the Manifesto of the Grand Seignior, which was published in the Austrian Observer of 7th instant. It is dated the middle ol last month, and addressed to all the Grand Vi ziers, Mirinianus, Mollahs, Wayvoues,.and other publick functionaries of the Ottoman Govern i meut. The purport of this Manifesto is, to set forth the benign and paternal protection which the Sublime Porte has ever extended towards all its subjects, and towards the Greeks in particu lar ; to deplore and condemn the rebellious con duct of the latter in certain provinces of the em pire ; and lastly, which is the most important part of the documtnt, to forbid that any violence or injury should be offered to the persons or pro perty of the Greeks, except in cases of positive insubordination. Any publick officer, or other individual, violating this injunction, is threatened with the penal displeasure of the Grand Seignior. What practical effect may result from this de claration in favour of the unoffending Greeks, it might be hazardous to conjecture. We can only j hope that it will check those wanton massacres j and indignities, the details of which have lately l been so afflicting to humanity. ! The news from Constantinople is to the 13th ; ult. when tranquility continued to prevail in that capital. Twenty of the malefactors, who had been daily occupied in committing massacres, ; had been executed, and a hundred sentenced to the bastinado. From the National Intelligencer. At the resent elections in Georgia, the votes of: the people were taken on the question of authori- ! sing a Convention to revise and amend the Con- ] stitution of the state. It appears that not more than half of the electors of the state, about 23,000, ! gave any vote on the queston ; but of the number ; given, more than three-fourths were against a i Convention; so that the measure is put to sleep for the present. We confess that we are surpris ed at this result, and if we might be allowed to express any feeling on the subject, we also regret it. If the people of the state are satisfied with their constitution as it is, no one else has a risht to object to it; but it seems to us, if they prefer its present form, and fear innovation, they ought to have authorized a Contention to secure it from change, inasmuch as the Legislature now have the power of altering it at pleasure. The ques tion, therefore, presented a paradox, in form— because those who desired no changes, were ne cessarily in favour of a convention, to amend ; A those who wished the constitution left at the mercy of the Legislature, and thus liable to fire quent alteration, were, of course, the oppouents of amendment. Description of the Whirlwind and Water-Spout in Lake Sanapee. The people in New-London, N. H. on Sunday, 6 o’clock, P. M. Sept. 9, 1821, were observing a cloud of frightful blackness which obscured the northern and western quarters of the heavens, illumined by a continual blaze of lightning, with a roar of thunder, portentous of a terrible tem pest fast approaching, and threatening destruc tion by wind and hail; when there appeared in Lake Sanapee, a Water-Spout, rapidly ing New-London, [which borders upon the Lake] like a pillar of black cloud charged with mischief, 20 rod 9 diameter in the water, and half a mile to wards its top, reaching to the heavens—whirling and foaming terribly—ploughing and carrying up the water. On reaching the land, it scraped up the ploughed ground, with which, and the water, it plastered every thing in its passage across New London. A considerable tempest of wind, rain, and some hail, followed one mile in its rear. Concord Observer, JVov. 3. Dreadful effects of Gambling.— The Malay, when he has lost his all, and perhaps pawned his wife, his children, nay himself, for debts at the gambling table, seizes his knife and desperately “ runs a muck at all he meets,” in the street, cutting, stabbing, and murdering every one who falls in his way, until be is shot down, or disarm ed, exhausted, by someone of superiour strength. An instance of a similar description occurred late ly in Paris. An individual, who had lost his all, rushed from the gambling table, entered the shop attended by a lady, shut the door after him and stabbed her; a female servant who entered was laid low by nine stabs of his dagger, and the la dy’s nephew, who came to her assistance, was also stabbed in several places; he then fled to to the street, and was not secured until he had stabbed two other persons. All this, says the ac count,occurred in the most frequented part of the capital. Phis, however, is not the conclusion of the story, bloody enough in all conscience already. He was taken to the guard house at the Bank, which he had scarcely entered when he drew a pistol from his pocket and blew his brains out! Sav. Georgian. By a late estimate, it appears that the real es tate in the city of New York, belonging to the Corporation, amounts to nearly three millions and a half of dollars; which property is, no doubt, productive, and produces an interest probably of 6 or 7 per cent. Ib. Springfield, Oct. 31. Singular Preservation. — We do not recollect a more signal display of the over-ruling power of Providence in the events of this life, than we wit nessed in this town on Friday afternoon. A brick building of three stories had been erect ed and the workmen were placing the timbers to receive the roof. They had collected timber and several thousand brick, (altogether weighing 10 or 15 tons,) upon the third floor. Seven men were at this time in the building, and two or three were about entering it ; Ethan Button and Alex ander Allen were on the first floor; Button had come in on business and was standing as a spec tator j Mr. Ely was on the second floor and the other four on the third floor, when the third floor gave way and with all the timber and brick, went down, carrying with it in one general crash, the two floors beneath and the timber connected with them. The four meu who were on the third floor escaped without severe injury, as did Mr. Ely who was on the second; Allen and Button, who received the whole mass upon their heads, were taken from the ruins not only alive, but ap parently out of danger; Mr. Allen was soon ex tricated, but more than 30 minutes elapsed before the immense weight of timber and brick was re moved from Button. It is impossible intelligibly to describe the situation in which- Button was found. We can only say that death touched him on every side, and had his body been moved in either direction from the place it occupied, his destruction would have been inevitable. So true is it that though man's heart deviseth his way , the Lord direetelh his steps. At the late festival of the Saratoga, N. Y.
