MOt'NT ZION, MONDAY, JUNfe 9, 1523.
cannot hq less agreeable to our readers
than to ourselves, that we are compelled another
week to issue a half sheet, or wholly suspend the
paper. -For this deficiency we shall endeavour to
wake amends ; and trust the assurance of our
having used every exertion to procure paper in
season, will be deemed by our patrons a sufficient
apology..
The Resolution of the Hopewell Presbytery, on
the subject of an Education Society in this State,
we are under the necessity of postponing till our
next.
ORDINATION.
At a special meeting of the Georgia Presbytery
liolden at Medway, Liberty county on the 27th
ult. the Rev. Robert Quartertnan was ordained to
the work of the Gospel Ministry. The Sermon
was preached by the Rev. Benjamin Gildersleeve,
from I. Cor. ii. 4. The Rev. G. G. McWhorter,
of White Bluff, presided, and the Rev. Mr. Mc-
Whirr gare the usual charges. The congregation
was unusually large, attentive and eolensn. Ave
ry respectable number of the clergy of other de
nominations attended. As soon as their former
pastor, the Rev. Mr. Murphy, who was endeared
to them by about 11 years of faithful and success
ful labour, had resisted all entreaties to reniaiu
longer with them, their minds were unanimously
fixed on Mr. Quarterraan, and we can but con
gratulate them on their happy prospects, and
pray that his ministry may be as profitable as that
of his predecessors.
The Christian and the scholar will find a rich
intellectual banquet in the Speech of the Hon.
De Witt Clinton, given in the preceding columns.
A N. York paper of the 20th ultimo says :
“ Mr. Matthews played last evening to an over
flowing house, and took his leave of the American
pubtick. Today a party of his friends give him a
dinner at Syke’scoffee-honte. We have no doubt
it will be a splendid one, as Mr. S. has been sev
eral days preparing for it. Tickets for the dinner
ten dollars jsai u —a mere trifle !”
This extravagance is all very well, seeing that
Air. Matthews is a foreigner, and a notable buf
foon. Had the same money been expended lor
religious purposes, it would have been monstrous
ly absurd—superlatively ridiculous !
No intelligence has been teceived from Europe
since our last.
Naval Engagement. —A Curracoa paper of the
3d May, rtce.ved in New York, contalus the de
tails of a bloody encounter which took place near
Torto C.ibeilo, between the Colombian squadron
under Corn. Daniels, and a Spanish force of two
large frigates and four smaller vessels. The ac
tioo Jasttd three hours, and resulted in the cap
ture of four of the Colombian fleet. The Span
iards approached under British colours, by which
the Patriots were deceived, and had no alterna
tive but to fight or surrender. They preferred
the former, and appear to have fought with the
most undaunted resolution, but were overwhelm
ed by a force vastly suporiour in men and weight
of metal. The Spanish loss was 83 killed ar.-d 24
wouDded. Patriot lo's, 161 killed and 21 wound
ed—among the former is Com. Daniels.
Candidates far the Galloirs. —Bills of indictment
for piracy and murder have been found by the
Grand Jury of Kingston, Jamaica, against 24
Spaniards and Portuguese, who were lately sent
there by British cruisers.
A destructive fire lately occurred in Constan
tinople, by which about 8000 shops and bouses
were destroyed, and 40.000 inhabitants left with
out habitations. The whole weight of the calam
ity fell on the Turkish part of tbe population.
At the late session of (he Circuit Court of the ‘
U. States iu Portland, Jedediah Elliott was ar- |
rained on an indictuieut for perjury. He had ,
been on the revolutionary pension list under the
act of 1818, and after the additional act of IG2O, 1
he took the oath which was necessary in order to ,
be retained on the list. It was proved that he |
had given a deed of his farm to his son, in consid
eration of securing a maintenance for himself and 1
his wife : and that he had taken a mortgage
on the property to secure a fulfilment of the con- (
tract. It was alleged by the son, that the farm
had been conveyed to him as a compensation for
sis years labour, for which he had received no
other pay—that he gave the mortgage to paci
fy the mind and quiet the apprehensions of his
father who was old and infirm, and that the sup
port of his parents was wholly gratuitous. It was
contended, however, on the part of the govern
ment, that the mortgage gave the father an entire
control over the property, and that it was his to
all intents and purposes during his life time. The
Jury returned a verdict of guilty. The sentence
of the court (pronounced by Judge Story) was,
one hour in the pillory, 60 days imprisonment,
and a fine of ten dollars. The Judge observed
that this was as light -a punishment as could pos
sibly satisfy the demands of justice, and come
within the limits of the law ; but he hoped the
government would remit that part of the sentence
which condemned the old man to the pillory, on
account of his revolutionary services, and his gen
eral correctness of morals. Ihe trial excited a
painful interest.
•Another f iclrm. — We stated a few days ago
that murders in the neighbourhood of Norfolk were
becoming very frequent and alarming, committed
by runaway negroes. The last Norfolk papers
mention another victim to these lawless depreda
tors. Capt.W. Hayes, a respectable inhabitant
of Black Water, while sitting at supper with his
family, was fired at throng, , the window, and
mortally wounded ; a ball and several buck shot
having penetrated his breast. The deed, it is
supposed, was done by one of bis .own negroes.
Ihe window frames and sashes of the new
building erecting for the U. S. Branch Bank in
New York, are to be of solid brass , of English
manufactuie.
it bas been positively decked in Baltimore
county court, that a verbal engagement, as the
security for another person, is not handing in law.
A merchant had refused credit to an applicant
for goods—a person oame forward and pledged
himself for the payment, and the pledge was ac
cepted and entered on the merchant's books, but
1 tiie goods were charged to the .original applicant.
‘ It was admitted that the credit had been really
! given in consequence of that pledge, and yet it
, was not worth any thing to the plaintiff.
Most singular discovery. —We are favoured
• with the following by a correspondent, the truth
: of which may be relied upon;—“ The lovers of
the antique have an opportunity of being gratified
with as extraordinary a specimen of virtu as ever
1 was exhibited in this country. A few days ago,
, the Royal College of Physicians were presented
. with a human heart, which was found in a Sarco
phagus dug out of the ruins of an Egyptian Tem
ple, and which still retains its mil site and fleshy
soilness. The Sarcophagus was imported into
Media before being opened, where its contents
were explored in the presence of several persons,
and some of the medical men of the Island. The
most persevering force of the hammer and chisel
was required before the lid of the sarcophagus,
could be removed. It was found filled with bitu
minous matter, and containing a fluid of the col
our and appearance of old port wine, and which
flnid immediately enveloped this most unique rel
ick of human mortality. ‘l'his heart is uow pre
served in spirits in the usual manner of anatomi
cal preparations. The fluid is kept in a phial
separately, and according to the analysis of Sir
Humphry Davy, consists principally of vegetable
extractive matter with a portion of resin.

Expeditious Travelling. —We are indebted to a
gentleman from Portland, lately on a visit to this
city, for the following communication.

Things that our forefathers must have deemed
impracticable, and which the present race of men,
who have witnessed so many strange occurrences,
cau scarcely credit on any evidence short of oc
cular demonstration, appear to be, in this age of
discoveries, actually accomplished. As an in
stance of this kind, we notice the removal of large
three story brick houses, with chimmes standing,
uninjured, in the city of New York. Another
discovery, infinitely more important in its conse
quences, but the success of which is not yet so
well established, is said to have been made by
Mr. Perkins, an American in London, on the ap
plication of steam to navigation, by which a voy
age across the Atlantic k may be performed in ten
days, and one to the East Indies in less than two
mouths. [ Southern Recorder.
The occupation of Cuba, was made the subject
of inquiry in the House of Commons, on the 16th
April; when Mr. Canning replied, that, consider
ing the emergencies arising out of a state of war,
it uas impossible to give a direct answer on this
point. ‘I he London Courier, alluding to the re
marks in our papers, sneeringly observes, that we
never seem to have taken into account the prob
ability of France seizing on Cuba, in the event of
a war with Spain. [JV. Y. Spectator.
The Emperour Alexander has issued an ukase,
prohibiting the exportation of Georgian women,

Astonishing Accumulation. —ln England, a
pound of crude iron costs a halfpenny • it is con
verted info steel, that steel is made into watch
springs, every one of which is sold for half a guin
ea, and weighs only the tenth of a grain; after
deducting for waste, there are in a pound weight
7000 grains. It therefore affords steel for 70,000
watch springs, the value of which, at half a guin
ea each, is thirty-five thousand guineas.
Extract of a Letter from Bayonne received at
Paris.
Yesterday his Royal Highness the Duke de An
gouleme, having been to reconnoitre St. Sebastian
and having distributed crosses of honour to the
soldiers who had distinguished themselves in the
first affairs before the fortress, his appearance was
observed from the fort: a 24 pounder was imme
diately ordered forward, but the Spaniards were
so slow in mounting it on the battery, that the
Prince had already set off on his return for Erna
ni, when they fired it ofi. It was most fortunate
that they were so slow, for the ball passed through
a house, and struck a platoon stationed behind the
building, precisely on the spot where his Royal
Highness had been distributing the decorations;
fifteen men were killed or wounded.
Capt. Smith, arrived at Philadelphia from An

The caricature shops in London, says the New
York Post, have lost no time to turn the cause of
Spain to account. The following are among the
works of fancy displayed there as suggested by
the threatened invasion:
The King of Spain is represented as a Mule,
chained to the stone of the Constitution, and cry
ing to the Duke of Angouleme to release him.
1 he latter represented as a Jack Ass, is seen ca
pering over the Pyrenees and aad answering the
call by braying.
In another caricature King Louis is striving to
draw on tbe boots ot Napoleon, and invoking the
God of St. Louis to help him. As his body is
bent back in the exertion, the crown is seen fal
ling off his head, while young Napoleon stands be
hind ready to catch it.
The two Spanish Ambassadors in London, the
Due de San Lorenzo and Admiral Jabat, have
given up to the puhlick service of Spain, not only
the whole of the income assigned them as Ambas
sadors, but the profits of ail the offices of every
kind which they hold from the Spanish govern
ment. Noble.
It is stated in a letter from an officer attached
to Commodore Porter’s squadron, that the Fort
from whence the shot was tired that killed Lieut.
Cocke, was commanded by Col. Calava. He is
the man, (says the writer) whom Gen. Jackson
calaboosed in Pensacola, and no doubt entertain
ed a grudge against the Americans, which he has
gratified in this cowardly manner.
The Liberals of France are said to look to the
Due d ’ Orleans as the substitute for Lonis 18tb.
He is represented as the most liberal Royal per
sonage ol the Age, and the most moderate and in
telligent.
