POETRY.
From the Charted on Courier.
_
H* comes not—l have watch’d life moon go down,
But yet be comes not—Once it was not so.
He thinks not how these bitter tears do flow,
The while he holds his riot in that town.
Yet he will come, and chide, and I shall wehp,
And he will wake my infant from its sleep,
To blend its feeble wailing with my tears.
O, how 1 iore a mother’s watch to keep,
Over those sleeping eyes—that smile which cheers
My heart—though sunk in sorrow fix'd and deep.
I bad a husband once, who lov’d me—now,
He ever wears a frown upon his brow,
And feeds his passion on a wanton’s lip,
As bees from laurel flowers a poison sip ;
But yet, l cannot hate—O there were hours,
When I could hang forever on his eye,
And Time, who stole with silent swiftness by,
Strew'd, as he hurried on, ius path with flowers.
1 lov’d him then—he lov’d me too—My heart
Still finds its fondness kindle, if he smile ;
’Hie memory of our loves will ne’er depart ;
And though he often sting me with a dart,
Venom’d and barb'd—and waste upon the vile,
“Caresses which his babe and miue should share ;
Though' he htiould spurn me, 1 will calmly bear
His madness—and should sickness come and lay
Tts paralyzing band upon him, then,
I would with kiudness, all,toy Wltmgjrcpajry
Until the penitent should weep and say,
How injured and how faithful 1 had been.

• MISCELLANY.
TURKS A&D GREEKS.
The following letter from a gentleman iu Smyr
na to his friend in New York, describes with
more particularity than any statement we have
seen,the dreadful atrocities which havrtieeii lately
committed in that city. This information, says
the Commercial Advertiser, may be relied on.—
Smyrna is a seaport in Asiatick Turkey, in Nato-
Jia, and is one of the richest cities in the Le
vant. It is said to contaiu 15,000 Turks, 10,000
Greeks and 2,000 Jews, besides Armenians,
Franks and others. It 180 miles S. W, of Con
stantinople.
Smyrna, Nov. 15, IC2I.
Since I last had this pleasure, nothing
particularly interesting has occurred, even
at this interesting moment. The negotia
tions with Russia, at least so far as the
public!, are informed, remain in the same
state of uncertainty. Believing as I do,
and ever shall, that the Russian Govern
ment, or at least a ‘part of it, have been
the instigators of the Greek revolt, I do not
see how they can abandon their cause, at
least without obtaining conditions, that it
nil! be difficult for the Grand Seignor to
grant, should he be ever so inclined ; for
despot as he is, no chief, not even the Pres
ident of tbe United States, is mars obliged
to court publick opinion and sentiment than
he is, on all great occasions. God’ only j
knows what may eventuallygrow out oftbis
insurrection of the Greeks, for all Europe i
appear to feel themselves particularly in-!
terested in the fate of Constantinople—is ,
fact, tbe sitin',ion of Europe is s**.Co, that {
great brents may be looted for ere long. l
It appears as if the sound of a single cannon
would be a signal of general war. Tbe j
Turkish fleet have returned to the Darda- i
nelles; immediately on its arrival, great:
numbers of their sailors, miserable ones as
they are, deserted, and it will not be an ea
sy matter for the Porte to send eut anoth
er fleet before spring.—The danger of nav
igating the Archipelago in the winter sea
son with heavy ships, would be great for
any nation ; for the Turks it-would be at
tended with certain destruction. At pres
ent tiie Greeks are entirely free from the
apprehension of the Turkish fleet, and are
at liberty to torn their attention to the op
peralions in the Morea, where thr.y h ive of
late bad many important advantages.
The inhabitants of the different islands, to
gether with the great no others of Greeks
who are daily leaving Asia, all find their
way to the Morea, wherp it is probable at
\i least, the question of Grecian independ
ence will be decided. It is said they have
mentions of attacking Caudia this winter.
‘ihe island contains several well fortified
towns—very considerable riches—and a
filiation particularly desirable for the
Greeks. The conduct of the Turks in
that Island has been so ntrrrrmy umy.tmr
-...—u c -i ilitlo pitii fnr them if
they fell into the Hands of the Greeks ;
neither age nor sex have been
spared- After they had induced the
.Greeks to lay down their arms—those who
escaped the dreadful massacre fled to the
mountains, when at last they found them
selves sufficiently strong to descend into
the plains ; and the town of Canna is now
actualy blocaded by them, and so strictly
that no Turk ventures out of its walls.
They have cut off the supply of fresh wa
ter,and should their fleet blockade the port,
the Turks will he forced by famine to sur
render before spring. Here we are be
ginning to feel thd want of tbe Greeks al
ready, and I shall nMbe surprized if nearly
all of them get awa\ this winter. F.very
friend .to humanity mtt rejoice at their es- 1
cape from this place, and pleased to be as
sisting them too. On t\i score they owe
great obligations to the Frenqh consul and
marine—the English, on trip contrary, have j
been far from acting so generous a part. In
fact, a considerable part ohvhat is call- j
ed Franks, are much ngainst\he Greeks, i
Certainly their general chafcpcter is not !
calculated to obtain for them either the
love or esteem of other nation! Still I
shall bojfa after they have sulfersd what
their revolution exposes them to, they will
be fit to live under, at least an independent
government.—Thus much appears ti me
ofiertain, that the Greeks and Turk? can i
never again inhabit the skme country.
The Sultan has not power to protect their
lives, even that of the innocent Smyrnites,
who are daily exposed to be shot like wild
beasts. In fact, tew days pass that more or
less of them are not killed, and that with
the most perfect impunity, the Pacha not
daring to take notice of it. As yet tbe
Franks have been respected. Perhaps
the presence of a respectable naval force
has in no small manner occasioned it—still
a residence in a country where murders are
committed with impunity la the publick
streets in broad day-light, where all kinds
of subordination is at an end, is by no means
pleasant. Frequently my feelings have
been to wrought on, by the cruelties I have
witnessed, that I should, at the moment,
have been pleased to see the city in flames,
and which, we are not without odr feat?,
some day may be thC case. All these dis
turbances, the flight or concealment of all
the Greek.merchants and traders, has nat
urally a great effect on trade ; generally
speaking, an unfavourable one : still, as it
occasions great variations in prices of our
produce, gome have been lucky eDough to
profit thereby.
All flags have been constantly well treat
ed by both Turks and Greeks, notwith
standing the infamous lies of a newspaper
printed in this town, charging the Greeks
with piracy, and on the cases alluded to
when they knew the’ reports they h<l
priutcil vera not true, had not liberality
enough to contradict their statements,
which have.gone the round of the Europe
an papers. We have just received news
from Constantinople, that all the great offi
cers of state have been changed; how this
may effect the negotiations with Russia,
remains to be seen. Some way or other,
I think the time has come for the Turks to
quit Europe.
November 22.—Since the date of the
foregoing, we have been in great confu
sion, 2 Franks have been killed by Turks.
On attacking the third, two Turks were
killed—in the night all the Turkish rabble
came to tbe entrance of our quarters, with
tbe intention of setting fire to it. The As
surance given to them by the French con
sul that in such an event the Franks would
immediately retaliate on them in the same
way, had the effect to make the better part
of tbe Turks exert themselves to prevent
so dreadful a proceeding, in which they
have thus far succeeded. The next day
our streets were filled with Turks: the
few Franks who ventured out being armed,
the Turks thought tljere might be some
danger in attacking them, anfl contented
themselves with killing upwards of two
hundred poor Greeks. Yesterday and to
day it appears quiet—still no business is
doing, and most of the houses shut. Ano
ther French frigate has arrived, which adds
so much to onr force, that I domot fear the
Turks proceeding in a body to extremities;
what is most to fear is being shot in the
street by some desperate rascal who has
neither home m/i name to lose. Most of
the Franks are now armed, and the Turks
j being aware of if, I hope will make them
a little cautions.
November 24. —We are again all in quiet,
| but of th{ sort which cannot be connted on
j i'or one minute—the chiefs of the infernal
r janissaries have taken the town under their
■ protection. We have not heard of any
murders to-day. Ifyou hear of a war be
; tween the Turks and Russians, then you |
j may think 119 badly off—on the contrary all
I will go well. For ray part however, I may j
hope, I have but little reason to expect i
that the peace will be maintained ; if it is,
the Russians have more patience than 1
think the/have.
Apportionment Bill. —The bill for apportioning
representatives in the several states, giving one
for every forty thousand of representative popu
lation, has finally passed the house. Should this
ratio be adopted by the Senate, the different
States of .the Union will be represented in the
next Congress as follows :

Tbe present House consists of 187 members.
Increase of ratio from the last apportionment,
5,000 —Increase of Representatives, 25.
The comparison of a few of the numbers stated
in the last census, must lead to a conclusion
which will irresistibly provoke a smile. It will
be observed that there are about 65,000 more
males than females undeY 10 years ; 7000 more
between 10 and 11 ; 30,000 more between 26
and 45; and 32,000 more over 45 years—while
there are nearly 26,00(1 more females than malts
between the ages of 1C & 26.
What can be the reason of this difference ?
Does it arise from the unwillingness of a sertain
portion of the ladies to be recorded as of a less or
! greater age than 16 or 26 ? Is it not natural to
presume, that a greater number of blooming mis*
{ scs in their teens are desirous of being considered
! to have arrived at the ripe age of 16, while a still
1 greater number of full-blown summer roses would
be thought not to have passed the fading age of
26 ? The great disparity of the returns of certain
ages at least, warrants such a conclusion. After
all, it is rather ungallant to require females to 6tate
their ages, and we do not see that any benefit can
result from it.— Prov. Pat.
