MO’ N I /SlOs, MONDAY, AUGUsT 30, 1324.
The perversion of Scriptural phraseology to
the purposes of political satire, has lately become
too fashionable to escape animadversion. There
are certainly few persons of ordinary taste and
understanding, whether believers or infidels, who
will not readily acknowledge that the language in
which the Sacred Scriptures are written, is of a
character too dignified and peculiar to become
the common property of every scribbler for an
ephemera! sheet. In essays of a moral nature,
designed for the columns of a newspaper, the use
of such parts of divine revelation as bear partic.
ularly upon the subject, may be useful and neces
sary ; but when their introduction is only to give
a point to some political or personal sarcasm, ev
ery refiectiiig mind must see that it has a direct
tendency to destroy that respect for the oracles
of God so indispensable to the welfare of society, j
to say nothing of higher interests.
We have lately seen with no inconsiderable re
gret, the sublime and touching language of inspi
ration made use of in a manner so grossly tin war
rantable, that we cannot forbear to enter our sol
emn protest against it. We have now before us
the Augusta Constitutionalist of the I7lh instant,
containing an article of the description alluded
to, in which the solemn admonitions of the Apos
tles to the churches under their charge, are stu
diously selected for no visible purpose iu the
world, but to excite a smile at the expense of
some publick character or political sect. With
the politicks of the person who has taken the pains
to ‘• search the Scriptures” for an object so rep
rehensible, we have nothing to do ; we may safe
ly say, however, that pieces of this kind call have
very little political effect on the publick mind.
A thousand of them, come from what quarter they
may, will not make a single hair white or black,
so far as any election is concerned. But they
have a deleterious influence on morality,and ought
to be discountenanced by every friend s)f God
and his country. What, we would ask, has a
more direct tendency- to destroy all rev erence for
the Holy Writings, than the introduction of their
awful threatening*, their solemn warnings, their
earnest entreaties and their enrapturing promises,
into the party bickerings of the day ? A book
which has arrested the attention and commanded
the admiration & belief of the widest and best men
of the world—which Newton,& Locke,and Boyle,
and Bacon esteemed as above all price—a book
which has furnished subjects for the grandest dis
plays of human genius, whether in prose, poetry
or painting—which has brought “ life and iminot
taKty to light,” and shed a ray of unextinguisha
ble brightness into the very bottom of the grave— |
That such a book should become a kind of com
mon-place, from which every political wrangler
may select a sentence, no matter how solemn
its import, and pervert it to some pitiful jibe, is |
more than merely censurable ; it is absolutely
shocking to every person who justly esteems the *
only infallible guide of human conduct.
We know not what the w riters and publishers
may think of such articles, but we assure them
that if they be not blasphemy, they are so nearly
allied to it that the distinction exists more in man- j
ner than in spirit. Surely it is not necessary, in j
order to give force to a worthless lampoon, that
the oracles of Jehovah should he profaned ? That
a mode of expression which has been hallowed
by inspiration should be thus prostituted ! What
woul I be thought of a witness ora juryman, vyho
in a Court of Justice, -hould treat the Gospels of
Heaven wide this daring familiarity ? Think you
that the kiss which he imprints upon the Sacred
Volume,would sati f\ you that your life,character
or property might be safely entrusted to his hands ?
No -that kiss is mere mockery ! If lie is restrain
ed, it is from fear of this world & this world’s laws.
The only pages which unfold the dreadful scenes
of a future judgement, and which authoritatively
declare that no man shall bear false witness
against 1 is neighbour, he has learned to treat as a
jest-book or a tale ; and the formalities which a
court room requires, can have no restraining in
fluence upon his heart.
He, then, who values as he ought, the safe
guard” which the Biih.e affords for the protection
of his civil rights, and feels how fatally destructive
is iis rejection to the temporal and spiritual inter
ests of his fellow men, must witness with deep re
gret, every attempt which gross impiety or
thoughtless levity may make, to lestroy that rev
erence so justly due to the Word of God.
Our readers may form some idea of the horrible
atrocities of the Inquisition , as it formerly exist
ed, from the narrative of its recent operations,
given in this paper. We wonder not that Catho
licks in this country should call it a mere political
institution ; but if it be not an engine made use of
in Spain to purify the kingdom of a ) hereticks ,
who dare doubt the infallibility of the Popish
creed,as well as to punish the susptclcd enemies
- ol the government, why have c.cclesiaslicks been
the chief instruments in perpetrating its enormous
crones ? And why has it been confined to Catho
lick countries ? One fact on this point is conclu
sive. The Inquisition ha been sanctioned by the
bee of Rome—and Catliolick priests, by virtue of
fl.eir clerical office, have been appointed to pre
side over its guilty tribunals. It is iri vain, then,
for Catholicksto affirm, that their Church is inno
cent of the unexampled tortures which it has in
flicted, or unstained by the rivers of blood which
it has caused to flow.

Melancholy. —A tragick eveu occurred yester
day afternoon, at a respectable boarding house in
this city. While the boarders were at dinner,
Mr. Seaman, deputy sheriff, called with a writ for
two young men of the name of Hart, brothers,
who hadjust returned from an excursion to the
Springs. They expressed their readiness to at
tend the sheriff, and asked permission to go to
their lodging room for their hats. This was grant
ed, but having remained longer than was expect
ed, the sheriff'requested the landlord to ascertain
if they had really gone to their room. He knock
ed at their door, when immediately he heard a
report of a pistol, which was followed in a few
seconds by another. Oil entering the room, it
was found thatboih the young men had destroy
ed themselves, having apparently each placed a j
pistol in his iiiQuth, and literally blown to atoms
the upper parts of their heads. We learn dial
the young men were rn.lives of the Island of St
Thomas, named Ralph and John Hart, aged 24
and 26 years. They had transacted bossiness at
‘layagues, Porto Rico, under the firm of I & R.
Hart. From this place it is said they absconded
some months since in a vessel which they had
purchased and loaded on credit; and after visit
ing C uracoa, Havana, and Jamaica, and dispos
ing of the vessel and cargo, arrived in this city
a few weeks since.’ They returned from the
•Springs yesterday morning.

which he was proprietor in his own right and that
of his wile, at the commencement of our revolu
tion, nothing remains except the estate called Le
Grange, where lie and tiis family reside.
It is understood that he will be at no expense in
the cities, lie ought to be at no expense any
where. It is hoped that he will not be permitted
to expend one cent in the United States. —The
people have proclaimed him to be their guest: let
him be treated therefore, as such.— Whenever he
leaves a city, a gentleman should be appointed to
attend him, ami to guard him from every expense,
until he arrives at some other city, where he will
receive a similar attention.

ERIE CANAL.
Onr readers, many of whom have propounded
freqneut inquiries with regard to this year’s reve
nue of the Erie Canal, will he gratified with the
following statement, on (lie correctness of which
perfect reliance may be placed, as we have re
cently had an opportunity of looking over one of
the Collector's book*, from which we find that up
to tlie first of August, the toll amounted to one
hundred and thirty thousand , six. hundred and
seventy-two dollars, and forty-nine cents. During
the same period last year, it amounted to forty-two
thousand and thirty-six dollars, and thirteen
cent:, leaving a balance of eighty-eight thousand
six hundred and thirty-six dollars, and thirty six
cents in favour of this year. It will be recollect
ed that the eastern section was not open until the
middle of October last; after which, the naviga
tion was soon interrupted by the giving way of
some part of the work. We have no doubt that
when the canal is completed, the toll will be not
less than six h undred thousand dollars the first
year after, and there will be always an increase
in proportion to the population of the country.

Illumes the solemn brow of night,
1 dearly love that gentle ray
Which beams on friends now far away.
1 love the howling winds that fly,
’ Across the angry, frowning sky,
For well I know their sweeping blasts,
Along my native rocks have pass’d.
And much I prize that raagick pow’r
j Which lives in every former hour,
Recalls each dearer scene to view,
And bids past pleasures bloom anew.
But more 1 love the hope whose rays,
Illume with light tuy future days,
And whispers of a time to come,
That shall restore me to my home,

Arrival of Gen. La Fayette.
New York, August 16.
Early yesterday morning, the ship Caduius,
Capt. Allen, was announced by the Telegraph to j
have arrived below, with Gen. LA FAYETTE on ;
board. The pleasing intelligence spread over the
city almost with electrical rapidity, and every
countenance beamed with joy. Broadway and
the Battery were soon crowded with ladies and
gentlemen,anxious to catch a glimpse ofthex'eteran
hero, who, it was supposed, might come immedi
ately to the city. The arrangements for hi* re
ception were, however, speedily communicated
to him by the city authorities, and he landed at
Staten Island, from the steamboat Nautilus, a few
moments past ten o’clock, in company with Ins I
son, George Washington La Fayette, Mr. ;
Auguste Le Vasseur, a companion, and one |
sc-vaut, where they were received by the Vice
President of the U. States, and conducted to his]
seat. The Genera! remained at tbe Vice Presi- j
dent’s till 11 o’clock, this morning During the
most of yesterday, he received the visits of many
who were eagerly pressing round him,and anxious
to grasp his hand. Col. Platt, who was in his
suite during the Revolution,officiated to receive A:
introduce visiters, but, in many instances, the
General, unrestrained by the ordinary rules ol
etiquette,was as anxious as his visiters to crowd
forward and take them by the hand.
Gen. La Fayette had a pleasant passage of thir
ty-one days,enjoyed good health, is in fine spirits,
full of conversation, and happy at firidiug himself
once more on the soil of freedom, among his com
patriots of the Revolution and a nation of free
men grateful for his services and eager to honour
him.
This day presents one of the most brilliant and
magnificent exhibitions ever witnessed in this city.
The day itself is one of the brightest the sun ever
shone upon—Not a single cloud obscures the clear
blue sky —but all is fair and beauteous—the
streets and the windows are lined with the beauty
and fashion of the city the military presents a I
rich display—the thunders of the artillery are]
roaring around us, mingled with the shrill notes of
the fife, the roll of the drum, the ringing of the
bells, and the spirit stirring mnsick of united
bands—the waters are covered with steam boats
and barges gaily and beautifully decorated—aim
almost tiie entire population ol this great city are
assembled to receive and welcome, with over
flowing hearts, the Soldier and Patriot of the Rev
olution.
The General received yesterday numerous vis
its from our fellow-citizens, at the seat of. the V.
President. In taking by the hand some of bis old
companions in arms, bis tears of joy bespoke a
feeling which language cannot describe.
The following are the Arrangements made for
his reception in the city: The Committee of Ar
rangements of the Corporation, the Generals and
other Officers ot the United States Army, tLe Dili
cers of the Navy, the Major General? and the
Brigadier Generals of the Militia, the President of
(be Chamber of Commerce, the Committee from
tbe Society of Cincinnati, will proceed at 9 o’-
clock this day, to Staten Island, where the Mar
quis is lodged, and escort him to the city : they
will be accompanied by the steam boats, all with
decorations, except that in which the Marquis is
embarked, which will only have the flag of the
United States and the State of New York.
Bands of mnsick being in each. The Marquis’s
embarkation will be announced by a salute (roni
fort La Fayette, & the-steam-ship Robert Fulton.
Two o'clock P. M.
The long expected event has taken place.—
The roar us Artillery, and the long and reiterated
cheers of thousands of freemen announce that the
Hero of the Revolution, the friend of the great!
Washington, has this moment set his foot on tbe !
soil of New York ! We congratulate our city and }
