POETRY. THE VISION OF ST. JOHN—as extract! ———When in rocky Patinos lone, I commun’d with the Holiest One, And o’er my head dread thunders broke, And thus the viewless seraph spoke— * Mortal! from earth awake ! arise! And view the secrets of the skies.’ Hearken, my children—and behold The glories of the latter day ; When heaven its portals shall unfold. And earth and skies shall pass away. It is the Eternal Sire’s decree, That thus the final hour should be— Pomp—glory—grandeur shall decay. But his high word endure for aye. One foot on earth, and one on sea, A mighty angel towers to heaven; Before his glance the mountains tlee; Beneath his tread the depths are riven— Wreathed radiant round his brows divine The bright hues of the rainbow shine; His aspect—like the broad red glare Os the fierce sun’s meridian ray— Beams forth intolerable day— The glory of the Lord is there. Loud as the maddening lion’s ttmr, Or as the wild surge beats the shore, lie speaks—ifilue lightnings rend the sky, And heaven in thunder gives reply. Ne’er be those sounds, in mystery seal’d, To human ear on earth reveal’d. And when that fearful sign was given, lie rais’d his dread right hand to heaven, And thus the oath he swore— * Ve spacious skies, thou rooted earth, By Him who called you into birth Your destined.date is o’er; t swear by Him, whose sovereign sway, The bright angelick hosts obey, By Him who died, and lives for aye, That lime shall be no more.’ Earth trembled at the sound, but O What shrieks of wailing and of wo, What frantick yells of wild despair, Tumultuous rend the troubled air ; In vain, the day of grace is o’er, And love and pity plead no more. Mark, where the rock-hewn cavern breaks, And to his doom th’ Oppressor wakes; Mark, where the fear-struck Despot now Dashes the diadem from his brow; Beneath his foot the firm earth rends; The heavens are darkening o’er him ; The Judge, the Sovereign Judge descends; And who may stand before him!’ MISCELLANY. TURKISH EMPIRE. The rapid progress, and still more rapid decline of'the Turkish power, are among ■ the most interesting phenomena, in the his-1 tory ot modern Europe. Lender any cir- j cumstances, we could not behold with in- 1 difference, a people which seemed to spring at once, from nothing, to the summit of em pire—whose power was extended over the classick regions of the east, in all the rig our of barbarous and unrelenting despotism, and which distinguished from the rest of Europe by the character of its religion, its law,- its manners and its customs, has stood an isolated monument of the energy of su perstitious enthusiasm.—The Turks are descended from a Tartar horde, who emi grated from the countries bordering on the Caspian sea, about the year 850, and who, for several centuries after, interfered, with decisive effect, in the contests and revolu tions of the Saracen Asiatick States. Oth man, the chief of the Oguzian Tartars, is reckoned the real founder of the Turkish empire. He succeeded his father in 1289, and his dominions were then confined to the lordship of Siguta, in Bithynia, and a small tract of adjoining territory. But the good conduct of Othman, and the bravery and zeal of his followers, enabled him greatlj’ to extend the narrow limits of his paternal inheritance, and to bequeath the whole of Bithynia and of Cappadocia to his son and successor. From this period the tide of Turkish conquest began to roll for ward with a force that could not be checked by the feeble resistance of the Greeks. In 1338, the Ottoman troops first obtained a footing in Europe ; and in little more than a century after, (1453.) Mahomet 11. sword iu hand, entered Constantinople, the capi tal of the Greek empire. Selim, the grandson of Mahomet, added Syria and Egypt to the dominions of his ancestors; and Solvman the magnificent, the cotempo rary of the Emperour Charles V., and the most accomplished of all the Ottoman Princes, conquered the greater part of Hungary, and in the East extended his sway to the Euphrates. At this period the Turkish was unquestionably the most pow ful empire in the world. But even then it had not reached ite greatest height. Soly man was succeeded by other able princes ; and the Ottoman arms continued to retain the ascendancy over those of Christendom until the famous John Sobieski, King of Poland, forced them, in 1683, to raise the siege cf Vienna. This marked the era of their decline. For awhile they continued ho oppose the Austrians and Hungarians I nth doubtful fortune, aud with various uccess; but the victories of Prince Eugene ;[ave a decisive superiorty to the Christians. Trom this biow they never recovered;; their empire continued ever since to fall, like a star which shoots downwards, through the expanse of the heavens ; until at last their power seems tottering on the verge of annihilation. The Turks like their Tartar ancestors are naturally a brave, patient and hardy race. They were early inured to habits of pillage and of blood ; and after embracing the Mahometan faith, they found in the law of the prophet, not a license only, but a Command to desolate the world, and to propagate tfieir religion end theif empire by violence. The peculiar tenets and leading doctrines of the Koran harmonized in a particular manner with the ferocious, ignorant, and superstitious minds of the Turks, who early became the most zealous, apostles of a religion, of which implicit, faith and unconquerable energy are the vi tal principles. The fanaticism knew no j bounds. They literally believed that the 1 sword was the key of heaven and of hell; ■ and that to fall fighting in defence of the true faith was the most glorious of deaths, i and was accompanied with the largest por- j tion of eternal felicity. Firm and unshak en believers in the doctrine of predestina tion—assured that no caution could avert, and that no dangers could possibly accele rate their inevitable destiny—they met their enemies without fear or apprehension. To the desperate energies which would be exerted by principles like these, wield ed too, by a succession of Sultans distin guished for various and consummate ability, the Greeks had nothing to oppose but dis pirited troops, and generals equally desti tute of skill and capacity. The total de feat of Bajazet the grandson of Othman, by Timour, in 1402, presented an opportunity which, had it been rightly improved, might have enabled the Greeks to expel the Turks from Europe. But they were them selves totally incapable of profiting by this or any other event; and the schism of the West, and the factions and wars of France, F.ngland and Germany, deprived them of ; all foreign assistance, and enabled the . Turks to repair their shattered fortunes, i and again to become the terror and the scourge of Christendom. But the same cause to which the Turks principally owed their original success— the intolerant bigotry and fanaticism of their religion—proved also the principal cause of their decline. It insulated them from the rest of Europe, and taught them to look down with contempt and aversion on the arts, the sciences, and the attain ments of the infidel world.— u There is,” to use their own words, “ but one law, and that law forbids all communication with infidels.” Other causes have also contributed to the decline of the power of the Turks.— The fiery and impptuous zeal of the origin al conquerors has long ago subsided ; —the invention of gun-powder, and other im provements in the system of modern war fare, hare opposed an invincible obstacle to the success of multitudes without discip line, and courage without skill. That frantick fervour, that contempt of danger, and that superiority of numbers and bodily strength, which formerly gave so decided a superiority to the Ottoman arms, could not enable them to contend with the science, the cool deliberate courage, the artillery and tacticks of the troops of Prince Eugene ; and of Suwarrow. The Turks have de- I generated both in their civil and military j institutions; but their present weakness is j to be ascribed more to their not keeping pace with the progress of their neighbours, than to their positive decline. Their ignorance, and confidence in the doctrine of predestination prevent them from suspecting the source of their inferi orty to be in themselves : “ we effected our conquests,” said the Mufti to the Baron de Tatt, “ without any aid from European tac ticks, nor do we now stand in need of them. Our defeats are not the effects of human force; they are the chastisements of our crimes ; the decree of Heaven hath reach ed us, and nothing can avert the wrath of Omnipotence.” The unlimited despotism of the Sultans may be assigned as another cause of the decline of the Turkish empire. The Sul tan is at the head of both church and state. He is regarded as the immediate vicege rent of God, or rather of the Prophet, and the most unresisting and passive obedience to his command is inculcated as a primary religious duty. For a time during the rise of the Turk ish power, this extraordinary exaltation of the Sovereign was attended with no evil consequences. The Sultans were generals in war and legislators in peace ; they prac tised from necessity, both the military and peaceful virtues, in order to inspire confi dence and attachment in their soldiery and subjects—from personal observation they were able to bestow rewards on those who deserved them; and the necessity of sup porting their own power, by the efficacy of the talents and attachments of their officers was a sure pledge of a judicious selection. But when the tide ofTurkish conquest was stopped, and the heirs of royalty, instead ofj being educated in the council or in the field, j were broogth up in the slothful luxury of the Seraglio, their inclinations were vilified by their habits, and their government grew as vicious, as corrupt, and as worthless as themselves. Influenced by private, and often base affections, they committed the administration to favourites without merit or experience, and the incapacity of the head, pervaded and paralyzed the whole system of the state. The extension of its boundaries also has tened the decline of the empire, by increas-i ing the number of its enemies, not of its: i subjects. Submission to the power of the i Turks averted indeed the stroke of death, l but nothing short of embracing the religion . of their Prophet could exonerate the van-: quished from extortion and slavery. “ The ; conquered people, if they obstinately re fused the offer of conversion, became, to gether with (heir possessions, their indus try anil their children, virtually the pro perty of their masters. Their substance ■, says the law is as our substance, their eye is ; as our eye , their life as our life. —In such a ■ state of subjection, their claim tp justice; ; and security was little better than an empty I sound, and their lives and fortunes were j ; made subservient to the necessities of the j i State, and the interests of the superiour’ i and privileged class, who strove by every! means, however injurious and insulting to! thfeir feelings, to suppress, instead of excit ing their energies, to debilitate their minds to the level of slavery, and to ensure their submission to tbe forms of government es tablished by themselves.” (Mr. Thorn ton’s Present state of Turky, vol. 11. p.tfO.) “ All the officers of Government,” says the same accurate and well-informed wri ter, “ owe their appointment to the sole favour of the Sultan, without respect to birth, talents, services, or experience.— ! They are deposed or punished without tbe | liberty of complaint or remonstrance ; and at their death the Sultan inherits their property. Governments of every descrip tion are sold at the Porte; they are held for the term of one year only, and at the ensuing bairarn the leases must be renewed or transferred to a less parsimonious com petitor. In the publick registers, the pre cise value of every important post under government is recorded ; and the regular remittance of taxes and tribute is the only acknowledged criterion of upright adminis tration. If the stipulated revenue duly enters into the coffers of Government, no inquiry is made whether it has been collect ed by harsh or by lenient measures. “When the inhabitants of a city, ora province are dissatisfied with the Pacha, they present their compliments in petition at tbe Porte ; but unless they accompany it with a larger sum than the Pacha finds it convenient to give for his reappointment, they seldom succeed in their application for his removal —Contestations of this pub lick nature, as well as those between pri vate individuals, are determined, not by the evidence of facts or the force of argument, but by the specifick quantity of gold which ei ther party can produce in support of his case.' 1 ’ When a Pacha thinks he can establish Jhis independence by his wealth or his troops, he rebels; —that is, he sends no re mittances to the Porte ; and if the Sultan cannot subdue him by force, a sort of con test in cunnnig arises between them—the Sultan trying to assassinate, the Pacha to murder the assassin. It is not uncommon for the Sultan to send an executioner with orders, if he should not be able to effect tbe destruction of the Pacha, to load him with additional honours! By this means suspi cion is not unfrequenlly lulled asleep; and the Pacha is rendered an easier prey to that undistioguisbable thirst for revenge, which can never be satisfied except by the blood of those who have presumed to con temn the authority of the vicegerent of the Prophet.” Such is a brief abstract of what appears to us to have been the principal causes of the increase and decline, and of the present enfeebled state of Turkish power. It is a fabrick which may easily be subverted, but which, fortunately for Europe, can never again recover its former strength. It has for the last fifty years existed only in conse quence of the mutual jealousies & struggles of Russia & Austria; but what will be the con sequence of the present conjunction, cannot be foretold at present. If they fellow out the principles on which they have acted in the case of Naples, they must support the throne of the Sultan, and render the banner of the cross an auxiliary of the crescent. Such an association, however, it may be reasonably predicted, will never take place, and it would not be a very surprising thing, if in the course often or fifteen years, Tur key should be what Poland is. But so long as the Turkish government is suffered to exist, the Pachas will continue to pillage and waste the provinces, and the Sultan will, in his turn, strangle and then plunder the Pachas. JV. F. Spec. AN HONEST SHOEMAKER. The London Observer, of the 16th September contains a letter from an emigrant, who signs bis name T. Hands, who has settled himself on the Merrimack, county of Hillsborough, New Hamp shire. After expressing his delight with the ap pearance of the country, the thousands of apple trees loaded with fruit, &c. be informs his friends he has now a comfortable dwelling and two acres of ground planted with potatoes, Indian corn, melons, &c. and has two hogs, one ewe, a lamb, and in the fall expected to procure a cow. He gives his friend a description of the country, the price of labour, the manner of building, the clas ses of persons who compose a town, describes the River Merrimac, the trade carried on, transporta tion, &c. “ The winters are very long and cold; the riv ers are frozen from November till May, and the snow upon an average is two feet deep. The air is generally clear, and the cold steady; for a few days I observed the thermometer twenty-four de grees below zero. Upon such nights a person’s hair, the blankets on the bed, &c. look as white as if they had been powdered. During winter the farmers slide their timber and firewood to the rivers, attend their cattle, &c. The common drink is cider, their dram rum ; the latter a great evil to the Yankees. They generally barrel beef in the fall, and pork in the winter, for the year’s use; much fish is eaten in the summer; the bread is sometimes rye and Indian corn. They have but threii meals a day, but these are hearty ones: for breakfast fried meat, vegetables, toast, cakes, biscuit, tea, chocolate, butter, coffee, cheese, &c. They say they don’t like pot luck, (boiled victuals) and seldom have a j meal without pye baked on plates: in short,! it takes tweie as much to keep a Yankee as it would to support a common Englishman ; but the people of Boston live more like the Eng- I hsh than any of the Americans. Boston is the j great mart for all the northern states, and in a few i years will be the largest manufacturing town in ! America, especially as a dam has been formed I three miles long, and broad enough for buildings ; on each side, from the old town to the main land. > This is a turnpike road, and here they work six mills by the tide at all times. Now for the prin cipal question; 1 assure you I have made every possible inquiry, and can safely invite you to this happy country: there can be no doubt of a stea dy, active person doing well, especially a man conversant in business as you are, and iu posses j j on of a little property ; you have many distres . ‘in? accounts in England, but is it strange that a . person should be distressed who lands in a strange ■ country without a farthing ? and some expect mi ; racles, others use no perseverance, and sinkuo | der their troubles. 1 could have sent you a dis , tressing letter, when I had no money, no tools, .no furniture, and a child extremely ill; but no, I i would not: I went into the woods, felled a tree, • made my lasts ; went to a smiths, made my tools, I and, strange as yon mpy think it, turned out such bboU as the people here never saw before. Bring all the furniture you can, in a ship direct from London, and if you are a steerage passenger, lay in C 8 days provision or more. T. HANDS. FRESH SUPPLY OF GOODS At Mount Zion.
