‘mount ZION, MONDAY, SEPT. 20,1324.
03= We were last week under the necessity of
suspending the publication of the Missionary.
This will be less a matter of regret to many of our
leaders, when they are informed that the failure
of Saturday's mail, by which we receive our latest
news, would have rendered the paper, had it been
published, destitute of much of its usual interest
The excessive rains of the last week have also
presented the transportation of the mail on most
of the routes in this portion of the state. Many
of the papers received by the Northern mail were
much injured.
On Tuesday evening last, a heavy wind com
menced from the N. E. which continued through
the night, accompanied by rain, and we fear the
storm bas been severely felt on the coast. Sea
birds of different kinds and in considerable num
bers were seen in this vicinity on Wednesday.
They were doubtless driven from their accustom
ed haunts by the violence of the gale.
The prevalence of the wet weather has been
seriously detrimental to the planting interest.
At the last Sessions of the Presbytery of Hope
well, Mr. George Foot was licensed to preach as
a probationer for the Gospel Ministry, and Mr
Archibald fiuice, who was suspended from the
privilege of preaching the Gospel, in 1817, was
restored, and dismissed to be taken under the
care of the Presbytery of Fayetteville. The
Presbytery stands adjourned to meet at Lexing
ton, Oglethorpe co. on the Friday before the first
Sabbath in April next.
The King of the Sandwich Islands died in Lon
don on the 15th July, several days after the death
of his Queen. His last words were, “ Farewell to
you all—l am dead —I am happy.” He directed
that his own remains and those of his wife should
be conveyed to his native island.
Fate of Jlurbide. —The death of this adventurer
is confirmed by the receipt of Mexican papers at
New York. He was recognized and arrested by
a military officer on the 16th July, and in obedi
ence to the order of the General Congress of the
28th of April last, relative to Iturbide and his fol
lowers, he was shot at Padilla, on the 19th, at 6
P. M. His family are to receive a pension of
SBOOO per aun. from the Mexican Government,
but will not be permitted to reside in the Repub-
Jiok. His wife and two of his children accompa
nied him to Mex’co. This event will, it is believ
ed, add much to the tranquillity of that country,
as Iturbide had unquestionably many friends who
were only waiting a favourable opportunity to
place him again in power.
LA FAYETTE.
It is impossible for os to give any thing more
than a mere outline of the proceedings which
have marked the journey of this distinguished per
sonage since he left New York. He arrived in
Boston on the 24th nit. and was received with
the Kve’iest demonstrations of publick joy and
gratitude. The largest procession ever seen
in the city was formpd at the boundary
line, which proceeded to the State House where
the Genera! was welcomed by the Governour and
Executive Council as the Guest of the State. On
his arrival at the Common the pupils of the sev
eral publick schools, amounting to nearly 2500,
4 each bearing a portrait ofFayette on their breasts
stamped on ribbands, wore arranged in a line, on
passing which a beautiful girl apparently four or
five years old ran out from among the female chil
dren crowned with a wreath of beautiful natural
flowers, and was handed into the General’s ba
rouche, anJ taking the wreath from her own brow
with mnch naivetle, she presented it to him with
these words, Dieu vous garde [God protect you.]
And God bless you, my sweet little one, said he,
and now one kiss—she clasped her little arms
about his neck—it was pretty —the contrast be
tween the war-worn veteran and the blooming
child. There were some lines of great poetick
beauty twisted with the flowers.
Several arches were thrown across the streets,
(at places distinguished by somt revolutionary oc
currence,) tastefully decorated, on each side of
which were placed a tree of oak and another of
pine, 20 feet high. In the centre of one of the
arches a scroll was suspended bearing this inscrip
tion.
The fathers in glorv shall sleep.
That gathered with thee to the fight,
But the sons will eternally keep
The tablet nf gratitude bright.
We bow not the neck, and we bend not the knee,
But <>ur hearts, La Fayette, we surrender to thee.
The General rode uncovered and bowed to the
throngs who at interval® greeted him with loud
and joyous acclamations. Thousands of ladies
witnessed the scene, who expressed their gratifica
tion by waving their white handkerchiefs as be
passed.
He attended the commencement at Harvaid
College, (Cambridge) and visited Bunker’s Hill,
where a large body of military had assembled.
He then visited the Navy Yard at Charlestown,
where he was received by Com. Buinbridge and ,
the officers of the station, and taken on board the |
Columbus ship of the line, which fired a salute
from her lower deck guns. This superb vessel
was decorated with the flags of all the maritime
nations, and made a most splendid appearance.
He appeared highly g.atified with the order and
neatness exhibited at this great naval depot.
On his return to the city he visited Faneuil
Hall, celebrated as the theatre of whig oratory
before the commencement of hostilities, and
where those plans of resistance were first formed,
\vhich led to the separation of the colonies from
the mother conntry. On entering (he Hall the
General observed, “ This is indeed the cradle of
Am rican Independence.”
On Sabbath he attended divine service at Brat
tle-street Church, where, to use hjs own words,
*‘he used to attend a much respected and belov
ed friend and companion in our revolutionary
concerns,” the Rev. Dr. Cooper. He re- i
ceived an invitation from the Rev. Mr. Taylor to |
attend at the Catholick Churoh, which he res- 1
pectfully declined.
On Monday he reviewed the troops ordered out
by the Governour, amounting to nearly 6000
men. He himself, directed and fired one of the
field pieces belonging to the New England Guards,
with admirable aim, the ball striking near the
centre of the target.
The following toasts were given by the General
at the several publick dinners which he attended
at Boston.
The Young generations of America—Let them
accept the love, admiration and gratitude of an
old friend.
The holy alliance of virtue, literature and patri
otism is more than a match for any coalition
against the rights of mankind.
The city of Boston, the cradle of liberty —May
Faneuil Hall ever stand a monument to teach the
world that resistance to oppression is a duly, and
under true republican institutions becomes a bles
sing.
Boston, Acg. 28.
On Thursday the General La Fayette was wait
ed on by Deputations from Newport, from Brown
University, (inviting him to attend Commence
ment on Wednesday next) from Lynn, Ac. hy
the Government of the Massachusetts Charitable
Mechanick Association (to invite him to a publick
collation}; and by others. He afterwards re
paired to the Dorick Hall of the State House,
’ here nearly two thousand citizens, of all pro
fessions ages and conditions, were presented to
him, with each of whom he affectionately shook
hands. Several ladies of distinction were among
the number. Several of the humble but interest
ing Heroes of the Revolution took this occasion
to welcome their good old General. Numerous
incidents in this scene brought tears from many
manly eyes.—One decrepit veteran, on crdtches,
was recognized by the General as a companion in
arms at the memorable onset at Yorklown ; oth
ers were recalled to tecollection by events at
Monmouth , at Brandywine , at West-Point , at
Saratoga, and other places. Others, as belonging
to the Light Army which “the Marquis” com
manded in 1780, 81, Sec The hands of all these
he seized with the most affectionate cordiality,
frequently repeating, “O / my brave Light In
fantry.’'’ “My gallant soldiers!” “Excellent
troojts ,” Sic. One inquired, Is my old Colon
el, GimAT, alive ?” 44 Alas, no” replied the Gen
.ral. Another (Capt. Henry Pu rkett) intro
tuced himself, as one of the only two survivtrs
• f the 2d regiment of Light Dragoons of the ar
ny ; when the General remarked, that he wa>
happy in seeing so respectable a relict of that
tine corps alive Numerous other incidents of
the kind occurred. The pen of a Sterne alone
could do justice to their merit. Several of the
veterans who kU'ed the hands of (heir General,
were so absorbed by their feelings, that their
tongues refused their offices; and as they passed
silently on, the biz round tear stood trembling in
eyes whi h never wink’d amidst the rage and
carnage of the battle ground. We cannot omit
one other incident, evincive of the genuine repub
licanism of onr distinguished Guest.— At a hum
ble distance, and alone, an old and verier ihl-*
black man, (named John Harrison ) approached
the General, bowed, and expressed Ids wish to
embrace the hand of the Friend of human kind,
and whom he had the honour, he said, to wni
upon, when he resided at the house of Mr. Breck.
in Boston.—The General instantly accepted ins
hand ; and to the pious aspiration of the descend
ant of Africa, 41 that God would long continue him
happy in this World, and bless htrh ma World
to come,” returned” thanks for hi kind wish. s.
This incident occasioned very rapturous plaudits
from all the numerous spectators of it. The ven
erable John Kheeeand, Eq. o e Andover, in
presenting his hand, offered up ascriptions pf
praise to Heaven for the preservation of a life so
dear to the Friends of Liberty in both Hemis
pheres.
Patriotick Feeling".—The N Y. Statesman ob
serves, “on Friday we were told that Georgt
Washington La Fayette, sent an order to Mr
Hurley, who presented the hat to his illustrious
father, to furnish one for Idra. The order war
promptly complied with, hut Mr. Hurley refused
to takp payment, observing that all the hats hr
could supply’ to the La Fayette family, were paid
for forty ytars ago.”
Anecdotes of Gen. La Fayette. “ Well, mad
am,” (said a gentleman to an elderly lady at a
turnpike gate,) “ I suppose you are very glad
General La Fayette has come, as you must have
made oceans of money to-day at the gate.” The
old lady felt indignant at the remark. “Sir,”
she replied, “you must know that the General
and his friends go through this gate free of toll ;
and I should like to have him pass a thousand
times.” ‘‘Oho, then your gale are free now?”
“ Yes,” replied the Connecticut dame, without
moment’s hesitation, “ for such menus La Fay
ette, but not for those who come so far behind
him.” This last remark quickly brought a Y"rli
shilling cut of his pocket, for toll, and we may
well suppose hastened to get out of her sight and
the range of her wit.
A little Yankee urchin on the road, who was
running with all his might, to reach the next vil
lage, in hopes of seeing the General, stopped and
inquired if the Markiss La Fayette was going (a
dine there; he was told (hat Gen. La Fayette
curried his .tinner in his pocket, and that it wa
bread and cheese. Tne little fellow’s eves were
a big as a large knot hole. “ Ay,” said he, “• I
guess he aynt going to dine on bread and eheesi
neither, —we can give him something in our state
better than bread and cheese ; I guess l know,”
and on he pushed at his u most speed.
Juvenile Gratitude —When Gen La Fayette
was receiving the congratulations r.f his fellow
citizens, with his peculiar liberality, a youth ap
proached him, and taking him by the hand, he
exclaimed, *’ Sir, my father and my mother have
taught me from my childhood ‘o lisp your name
with reverence and affection.” The General,
much affected, clasped him in his arms, and said,
“ O yes, you are all my children.”
The Essex Register gives the following descrip
tion of the weather at the time of the entry of
i Gen. La Fayette into Salem :
“ The day was very inclement; but the circum
stance appeared to give interest to the fete. From
the moment the General entered the town, until
he left it, the rain fell in torrents. Although eve
ry one was wet through & through, yet none
thought of shelter—The cold drops from the clouds
could not cool the ardor of gratitude. When the
General eutered the town he was in an open
Barouche; Judge Story, who had rode with him,
had thrown over him a cloak,and held an umbrella
over his head ; but when he saw the women and
children thronging the streets to welcome him,
entirely exposed to the rain, his benevolent feel
ings were excited, lie threw otf his cloak, and re
fused the shelter of the umbrella ; and when he
arrived at the Coffe-House, he was, like two
thirds of the town, “ drenched to the skin.” To
give a full description of all that occurred on this
memorable day, when, amidst torrents of rain all
was sunshine, would entirely fill our columus.”
General La Fayette. —He has returned to N.
York. His triumphal progress continues to ab
sorb all attention in (he North, and to fill every
> newspaper with its details,
After visiting Salem, the General proceeded to
Portsmouth, in N. Hampshire, where he received
a splendid dinner and ball; after which he at
out on his return on Wednesday night, reached
New-buryport at one o’clock in the morning, and
Boston at 8 o’clock. At 2 o’clock he left Boston
on his way to N. York. He was accompained I
by a large number of the members of the city
government, and other citizens, and proceed
ed by way of Lexington and Concord, to Bol
ton.
On reaching Lexington he was cordially receiv
ed by the inhabitants of that town. A company
of Artillery and one of Riflemen, appeared to com
pliment him. Among the persons presented tc
him were fourteen men who were engaged in the
battle of Lexington, almost fifty years ago. After
visiting the field of the battle of Lexington, he
proceeded on his journey, and reached N. York
on Sunday about noon, in the steamboat, by way
of Long Island Sound. The wharves and shores
of the East river, for two or three miles in extent,
were lined with people, who kept up a continued
huzza as the boat passed,the whole distance. On
passing the Navy Yard, a national salute was fired
by the Franklin 74. The General landed at Ful
ton Market wharf, where lie was met by the
Committee of the Corporation. Thousands of
citizens had assembled at this point to greet and
welcome his return to that city, and expressed
their satisfaction by loud cheers.

Arrival of the Franklin. —The U. States’ line
of battle ship Franklin, Commodore Stewart, ar
rived at N. York, on Sunday, from a three years’
cruise in the Pacifick ocean. The Franklin sailed
from Valparaiso on the 28th of May, and from Rio
Janeiro on the 31st ult. The officers and crew
are all in good health.
Emigrants to Hayti The brig De Witt Clin

A bloody Battle —A letter from Green Bay da

news to write:—Two soldiers, Clark and Wilson,
deserted from this post a few days ago, armed
with 4 muskets. &c. They were pursued by the
Indians, (who are generally employed to bring
back deserters) and were overtaken. The soldiers
were determined not to be taken, and when the
Indians came within musket shot distance the
action commenced, .and lasted for some time.
The following is the result—

Fourteen hundred visiters were at Saratoga

Algiers. —After a considerable suspension of ac
counts from the B-itish fleet off Algiers, we now
learn by an extract of a letter from Madrid that
the frigate Syren, which arrived at Algesiras on
the 22d June, was waiting there for several bomb
and steam vessels, which were expected between
the 15th and 20th July, in order to commence a
serious attack on Algiers.

Extravagance of Fashion. —A late London pa
oer, describing the dresses of some ladies on a
publick occasion in that city, makes the following
statements:
“ The Dutchess of Argyll, in a dress of massive
golden tissue: her raven locks, and a prodigious
plume of feathers of the same colour, produced a
•wtrast with her diamonds, equalled only by
•• The Dutchess of Bedford, whose jewelry as
lonished all by its glitter and its glare. The lat
t.r made a prodigious display indeed. Indepen
dently of the necklace, which cost at least fifty
thousand guineas , ($233,000) chains of diamonds,
witli amethysts in the centre, decorated her
Grace's dress from the black velvet Spanish hat
to the girdle or cestus below the stomacher.
“ The Hon. Mrs. Hope was a meteor in the
•hrong; that lady was a moving firmament; and
it was said that the cost in brilliants alone, in a
dr-ssof sombre niaguificence (crimson) exceeded
seven hundred thousand pounds !” or $3,108,000.
