the days of the Apostles. If asked the reason of
their faith, their reply is, not that God in his word
has told me so, but that the Church has told me
so Thus, when they say mass, when they sprin
kle holy water, when they bow before images,
when they pray to angels and departed saints,
when they make an offering for souls in purgato
for these and a thousand other inconsistences
thev°plead tradition- But the origin of most of
their ceremonies is too well knorwn, to be be
lieved that they obtained in the Apostles’ day.
Yet aCatholick would be sinning against his own
soul to question the traditions of his Church !
The Sacrament of the Lord’s Supper will be ad
ministered at Mount Zion, on the second Sabbath

Surgical.— An operation for Lithotomy, Or
stone in the bladder, was successfully performed
’ on the 16th of February last, on a female subject,
t under very unfavourable circumstances, by Dr.
R. Banks, of Ruckersville, Elbert county.
A successful operation for Hernia, or rupture,
under circumstances by no means auspicious, was
performed by the same surgeon in April last. Al
so, during the same season, several cases of couch
ing, or removing cataract from the eye, in which
success has generally attended him.
Greece. —An important document has been
published in the Paris papers, purporting to be
from the Court of St. Petersburgh, in which it is
proposed to divide Greece into principalities, gov
erned by Hospodars, appointed by the Porte, af
ter the manner of Moldavia and VVallacbia. The
Greeks, says the document, would in this event
e njoy an unrestrained freedom of trade, have
their own flag, and pay a tribute only in propor
tion to the wealth and extent of the principalities.
It is declared that the Greeks cannot reasonably
espect to carry their hopes any farther, though it
is admitted that a fourth campaign will in all pro
bability be as little favourable to Turkey as the
preceding. In other words, the Gre ks, if left to
themselves, will eventually succeed in establish
ing their independence ; but a free governnien’
in Greece, it appears, does not comport with the
views of the Holy Alliance, and will not be tole
rated.
Indian Deputation. —Maj. Talliaferro arrived
at Washington a short time since, with a deputa
tion of Indians of various tribes from the Upper
Mississippi. They are said to be a fine, hardy
race of men, and are very anxious to cultivate a
friendly intercourse with the whites. While pas
sing up the Ohio, a chief named Marcpee, of the
Sioux nation, committed suicide by jumping from
the steam-boat into the river. It is apprehended
that he destroyed himself in consequence of hav
ing dreamed the evening previous, that he had
seen a letter from a white man written in charac
ters of blood ! A few moment o before his absence
was discovered, he was heard by his comrades to
sing the death-song of his tribe. Maj. T. offered
a reward of S2O to any person who would find
the body, and inter it decently at some conspicu
ous point on the Ohio,
LA FAYETTE.
The City Council of Boston, some time 6ince,
passed a resolution, inviting Gen. La Fayette to
disembark in, that city. 11l pursuance of that res
olution, a letter was addressed to him by Mr.
Quincy, the .Mayor, on the 20th of March, to
which the following answer has been receive ! :
Paris, May 26, 1824.
Sir —Amidst the new and high n.arks of be
nevolence the people of the United States and
their Representatives have lately deigned to con
fer upon ine, I am proud and happy to recognize
those particular sentiments of the citizens of Bos
ton, which have blessed and delighted the tir-t
years of iny publick career, and the grateful sense
of which has ever since been to me a most valua
ble reward and support. I joyfully anticipate
the day, not very remote, thank God, when I
may revisit the glorious Cradle of American, and
in future, I hope, of Universal Liberty. Your so
honourable and gratifying invitation would have
been directly complied with in the case to which
you are pleased to allude. But while I profound
ly feel the honour intended by the offer of a na
tional ship, I hope I shall incur no blame by the
determination I have taken, to embark as soon as
it i in my power, on board a private vessel.
Whatever port I first attain, I shall, with the same
eagerness, hasten to Boston, and present its be
loved, revered inhabitants, as I have the honour
to offer it to the City Council, and to yon, sir,
with the homage of my affectionate gratitude and
devoted respect. LAFAYETTE.
The New York Advocate states, that on the
arrival of La Fayette in that city, a grand salute
of 100 guns will be fired from the fort which bears
his name, together with salutes from the batteries
and vessels of war in the harbour. The shipping
will also be decorated, and the whole city illu
minated. It is supposed that nearly 20.1J00 men
. will be under arms, to be reviewed by their illus
* triuus visitant.
“ Catch n Weasel asleep." —A Philadelphia pa
per states that a number of ship carpenters and
vail makers of that city, hired a small sloop for
the purpose of celebrating the 4th of July at the
Capes of the Delaware. Being full of “ gin and
independence,” they resolved on an adventure,
and having plenty of stoies on board, they elect
ed a Commodore, and stood out to sea. After
cruising for some time, the U. States’ schooner
Weazle hove in sight, on her return from the W
Indies, and our jovial buccaneers, probably not
knowing the metal of the stranger, bore down
in gallant style. When within inuskei shot, the
newly made commodore hailed the schooner, and
ordered her papers to he sent on board immedi
ately. The order not being complied with as
readily as comported with his dignity, he direct
ed a musket to be discharged to enforce obedi
enee. The commander of the Weazle, not wil
ling to be deficient in attentions of this kind, or
dered a 12 pound shot to be fired over the sloop,
and squared off to give a broadside if necessary ;
but on the smoke clearing away, the pot-valour
of the commodote had also evaporated, and he
and his crew were seen upou their kuees, begging
for mercy. The boat was then sent, not with the
papers, hut with orders to bring the commodore
and alt hands on board the schooner, where they
were examined, and being found to be true and
loyal citizens of the good city of Philadelphia,
they were, after four hours’ detention, allowed to
return to the sloop, on promising that they would
never again attempt “to catch a Weazle asleep.”
Heat. —The following glowing description of a
is from the Charleston Mercury—and
would excite a smile at any other season of the
year. But when the mercury frequently rises to
94, we have very little disposition to laugh at any
thing, much less at our own sufferings. None but
a salamander can read it,without being thrown into
a perspiration.
“ Charleston cuts a curious figure, and so would
any place after such a four day’s scorching as it
has experienced. The dust in the street looks
like hut sand just thrown from the crucible of a
brass founder, and the water of the Bay, so far
from raising comfortable ideas of refrigeration,
resembles a lake of molten lead * *
“ Sn uff takers are now to be pitied. The mois
ture of their dibits forms their Moccoba into lumps
like poudre a canon —and they snuff up, not fine
particles of tobacco, but things like pellets of
shot, and the upper lip gets so hegrimmed with
black dust, that he of the Mull looks like a mus
tachioed bombardier.
“ The air is so subtile that it can hardly expand
the lungs, and you see many sufferers gasping for
breath, with their mouths open, and the nether
jaw dropping as if they wdre in extremis.
“ Thoughts often run into contraries, and while
you are devising some mode of getting cool, a cart
load of firewoud passes before you, and you in
stantly think of a kitchen fire—of roasting, boil
ing, slewing, and dripping pans and gridirons—
horrible ! what a flash of heat comes into your
imaginations, and then fires your inward parts.—
*• That screaming black imp who cries hot muf
fins in the streets would drive one into a fever if
he was not followed up by another who bellows
ice lemonade—and the two together put one in
mind ot Milton’s hell, where condemned spirits
are at once translated Irum rolling billows of fire
to mountains ot thick ribbed ice, and backwards
and torwards ti.rough such agreeable transitions.
‘•lt is ourtousat two o’clock,when the sun enfi
lades Broad-street with his hottest fire, to observe
some of the poor Salamanders crawling along the
scotched pavement, and others rolled along the
carriage way in gigs, driven by heated fat lumps
of negroes, placed by the side of their masters as
absorbents of caloric. A black horse driven by a
negro looks just now like an equippage from Bel
zt hub’s stables,
“Sed tempus et Itora —lf the heat melts man
down it raises cotton up, and if it render him lank
and chalky faced, it imparts vigour and fullness
to the rice-plant. Such are the compensations of
Providence—and after all it is better to sweat a
few mouths under our glorious bright skies, than
to be for a whole wilder blowing our fingers out
of doors, and scorching our shins within doors, in
company with unr Borelian brethren at the other
end of this country ot extremes.”
Legal Swindling. —The New York Bar, the
strongest, in point of numbers, in the Union, is
probably stained with fewer crimes and excesses
than any on the continent; though it is to be ex
pected that bad men will creep into every pro
fession. We have had lab ly some extensive acts
of swindling practised upon the community, by
an emigrant limb of the law, now in Bridewell
and who represents himself to be from Philadel
phia. His plans were extensive, profitable, and.
from their peculiar delicacy, very dilficult of de
lection.
He managed some time ago to become acquain
ted with a young woman, who had cause to la
ment the perfidious promises of a lover. The
lawyer immediately addressed a note to the of
fender, threatening prosecution, ruin, infamy, ex
posure, Ac. if he did not call and settle the affair.
The lover, alarmed at the consequences, called
upon the lawyer, and for S3OU he undertook to
compromise the affair, which sum he received,
and generously gave the unfortunate young wo
man S4O, pocketing the rest for his trouble.
There is reason to believe that this legal swin
dler has been most exlensive in his operations on
this delicate point. He, lately wrote a letter to a
young man, requiring nim to -all at his office and
settle a similar affair, she young man called, pro
tested his innocence, and declared that he did
not know the young lady. The lawyer adroitly
painted the consequences of exposure; the nu
plic.it reliance placed upon the oath of the injur
ed female ; showed him au authority from the fa
tiler oflhe unfortunate woman to prosecute him ;
and finally obtained from him a sum of money,
and actually forged a release from the pretendtd
father, and let the young man go.
Some time afterwards he sent for him again,
told him the father was dissatisfied, and had or
dered him to be arrested ; that tie tied carried the
suit to Washington, but to pievent a publick ar
rest, he proposed to the young man to place S2OO
in tile hands o! tile sheriff as security for his per
son. This was done, an# the money put into the
lawyer’s pocket instead-of the sheriff’s.
Innumerable small sums were obtained in a
similar way by this arch intriguer, until a de
maud tor an additional SJUO excited the suspicion
of the young man, who complained to the l’olice,
and (his limb of the law Wasairested; and, on
examination, a most extensive scene of fraud and
villany was developed. He will be tried, proba
bly, at this term ol the Sessions.
It should he observed as a general rule, that all
threatening and anonymous letters should be dis
regarded, and the writers, if known, punished ;
because, if a mail is guilty, there are no limits to
his punishment through such a medium : he pays,
and pays, ad tn/intlum, to purchase silence. If
a trail is innocent, il is his duty to disregard ail
threats. Tubiick opinion is all powerful ; ii pro
tects no man lhat does wroug, but it will palliate
the faults of turn who resets such villanous at
tempts to make a profit ol secrecy.

Slave Trade. —The following article from Ha
vana, dated June 2S, presents an instance of the
horrid consequences of this traffick which has not
often been exceeded. A brig arrived a few days
since with 401 negroes captuted on the coast of
Brazils under the Brazilian fiag, by the Spanish
privateer Romano, ami sent in for adjudication.—
It is said that 200 died the first night ol her arri
val of black vomit!
Capt. Partridge, with about 130 of his pupils,
has recently returned to Norwich from a military
excursion to Rutland, Whitehall and Middlebury.
The whole march which the students endured
with the firmness of veterans, comprised an ex
tent of 300 miles. It was the intention of Capt.
Partridge and his young military students, to have
marched to Montreal aud Quebec, but on their
arrival at Plattsburgh the Captain received a let
ter from the Governour of Canada, refusing him
and his cadets, permission to euter the province.
Col. Star.
From a late London paper.
Letters were received tins morning from Con
stantinople, dated on the 26th April, but they on
ly communicate news tending to confirm the al
ready generally entertained idea, that vice ha at
length nearly concluded the effects of her influ
ence in that part of the world, by the now pend
ing destruction of the once mighty Ottoman Em
pire. The following is an extract of one of these
letters, written by a gentleman who is certainly
not very friendly generally, in his communications
to the cause of Greece :—“ The fleet has at last
sailed, thanks he to God ! and taken with it the
very dregs of villany. This is a harsh expression,
but had you seen their fine troops, you would
willingly sanction it. The Captain Pacha, after
his departure on Wednesday last, returned to
take fresh orders, and it is said that he is to make
his first attack on the islands. This, however, is
uncertain ; the Turks left this quietly, but iu ve-
rv bad spirits, and one hundiel and twenty of
them made off the day before the expedition sail
ed. The 84 gun ship is a very fine vessel, but
still the Captain Pacha preferred to sail in a cor
vette. It is reported that 250 Europeans are on
board the line of-battle ship, but the manner in
which she was handled on her departure, says lit
tle for their seamanship. It afforded much
amusement to observe her sometimes with head,
sometimes with stern way, and frequently run
ning on board of vessels which it was the object
of the crew to avoid. To all appearance, this
ship cannot defend herself against the enterprise
of the Grecian seamen, and the Captain Pacha
certainly has therefore, discovered considerablt
prudence in preferring a corvette for the protec
tion of himself. The Divan exhibits much unea
siness, and it in attributed to the reception of bad
news. There are 6000 men to be sent away the
end of next month,- but it is all nonsense, for they
will never do any good.

Fortune Telling. —A coloured woman was late
ly committed to prison in New York, for telling
fortunes. It was proved that in one instance she

the revolutionary war.
Burke's Description of a King. —The catastro
phe o( the Revolution in Spain, caused by the
most Catholick and most Christian Kings, who are
prob bly as faithful as his m .jesty of Portugal, re
minds us of the following profile drawn by the
celebrated Edmund Burke :
About two years before the conclusion of the
American war, on the occasion of the King re
commending in his speech further exertions
against his unsubdued colonies, Burke declared
ne could not conceive any being under heaven
(which in its infinite wisdom tolerates all sorts of
existences) more odious and disgustful than an
impotent helpless creature, without civil wisdom
or military skill,bloated with pride and arrogance,
calling for battles which he is not to fight.”
