and is established at Rangoon, the princi
pa) port in the Birman empire, where a little
church consisting of eighteen native converts, has
been formed. The government of the country
was disposed for some time to tolerate the labours
of the missionaries, and to afford them the neces
sary protection ; but the hostillities which have!
lately commenced between the British and Bir
mese, have rendered the situation of this little j
band of Christians extremely critical. The fears ;
which their friends in this country have indulged, 1
we are sorry to say have been rattier increased
than diminished by the latest advices from India.
The war was raging, with no prospect of its speedy
termination. At its commencement the Burmese
obtained some advantages, but the British army
bad finally succeeded in capturing Rangoon, and
had rescued the Missionaries there, whom the
Burmese commanders had ordered for execution !

The mail of Saturday brought no certain infor
mation relative to the vote of New York, so im
portant iu settling the great questiou of the Pres
idency. The ballotinsr commenced on Wednes
day the 10th and no choice was made as late as
the evening of Saturday. Mr. Crawford (ac
cording to the latest accounts) would receive in
joint ballot, 72 votes, and Mr. Adarns 69. The
seventeen remaining votes were doubtful, but they
must be given to one or the other of the above
named gentlemen, Mr Clay being new out of the
question in New York.
In North Carolina the contest between the
Cranford and Jackson Tickets was a close one,
and the returns do not warrant us in speaking
with any certainty as to the result. A letter from
Ral igh dated the 17th inst. to a gentleman in
Columbia, states that the Jackson electors are
chosen h> a considerable majority, but the returns
were not then complete.
The latest accounts from Ohio give Mr. Clay a
small i. iij wily over Gen. Jackson, but only hall
the State had been heard from, and the result ap
pears extremely doubtful,
in 25 counties in Alabama, Gen. Jackson re
ceived 7403—Mr. Adams 2143 Mr. Cra.vfoiri
1593. The Jackson ticket has unquestionably
succeeded.
The Montgomery Republican of the 19th nit.
jays, “we understand the Jackson Ticket has
prevailed in Mississippi by a large majority ”
There can be very little doubt of the election
of Mr. Calbouu to the Vice Presidency by the
Electors, as his name has generally been placed
on the Adams and Jackson Tickets.
De Witt Clinton has been elected Oovernour
of New York by a majority little short of 15,000.
Mr. Webster and Professor Everett are return
ed members of the next Congress from Massa
chusetts.
The Legislature of South Carolina convened on
the 22d inst. Jacob Bonn I’On was unanimous

Election.— Richard H. Wilde of Augusta, and
W. C. Lyman of Wilkes, are announced as can

STATE LEGISLATURE.
The Bill from the Senate to alter and amend
the Constitution so as to elect the Govemonr by
the People, passed the House by a vote of 83 t i

of two thirds. The next election of Govemonr
will be by the people.
The committee appointed to consider the ex.
pediency of creating anew county out of the
counties of Wilkes, Greens, Warren, Hancock
and Oglethorpe, made a report unfavourable to
that measure. In lieu of the report, however, a
substitute was offered by Mr. Pope, favourable to
the petitioners, which was adopted by the House

[From, the Liverpool Courier , Ocl 6 ]
The Greeks. —Glorious and animating intelli
genoe has been received from Greece. The long
threatened attempt upon Samo has been made,
and the re suit has been the conflagration of par*
of Ihe Turkish fleet, and the total destruction of
the force which had effected a landing, before it
had time to obtain possession ot any place, or to
commit any ravages. The signal victory had
been gained hy the heroism of the Greeks on sea
and land, and by the admirable concert which
prevailed in their operations. Ihe Captain Pa
cha, it appears, was either allowed to throw hie
troop. on the shore, or hud succeeded in lauding
them, when the Grecian fleet, commanded by
I the brave and celebrated Miaulis, who had watch- 1
ed all his movements since the re-capture of [p
sara, arrived in his rear, and attacked him before
lie had recovered from the disorder occasioned
by the operation which had just been completing,
or was then accomplishing. A tremendous con
flict ensued, both between the fleets and on the
shore. For the Samians, seeing the retreat of the
invaders cut off, and their.audacity appalled by 1
the contest behind them, on the issue of which j
J the enemy well knew that their existence must
| ultimately depend, rushed upon them with a fix- j
| ed determination not to suffer one of them to es
cape. Miaulis and his gallant companions, wdio
, had promised to perish or to save Samos and ■
avenge Ipsara, fought, on the other hand, with no
less enthusiasm than skill, and victory at last de
clared for the just cause. Notwithstanding the
courage with which the Turks on board the fleet
defended themselves, they could not escape the
fire-vessels heroically led amongst them by the
Greek sailors, and otie ship of the line, three frig
ates, and thirty gun-boats were destroyed. Some
of the latter ran aground to avoid a more terrible
fate, but the crews spared by the flames fell a
prey to a scarcely milder death ; for the Samians
■ had also triumphed over the wild and terrified
hordes so lately advancing with howls of joy
athirst for blood and plunder, and “ all the Turks
who landed on the Island, whether soldiers or
crews of the grounded vessels,” we are told,
“were put to the sword.”
The Augsburgh Gazette of the 23d September
states, that a packet which left Corfu on the 2d,
arrived at Tliieste on the 14th. It was immedi
ately rumoured that the Greeks had blown up the
vessel of ihe Captain Pacha. As the letters from
Corfu were not then distributed, this intelligence j
re*ts rneiely upon the assertion of a passenger,!
who stated, that an F.nglish vessel which had ar- 1
rived at Corfu from MisSolonghi, had announced)
that Canaris had fulfilled the oath which he took!
previous to his departure from Hydra, and had
blown up the admiral’s vessel with the Captain
Pacha on board, ll is added that Canaris perish
ed in the attempt—thus falling a victim to his own
i.atriotism. The Greeks are filled with joy at
this news, which promises fresh glory to their
country.
Portsmouth, Sept. 29. -
Defeat of the Ashantees. — Arrived his Majes
ty’s frigate Thetis, ot 46 guns, Sir John Philli
more, Knight, with despatches from Cape Coast
Castle, announcing (hat the Ashantees were (o
ally defeated in an action which took place on
the 11th of July, between their force, command
ed by the King in person, and a British allied force
under the command of Lieutenant-Colonel Sntli
erland, in which our force sustained a loss of
•tbout 500 men in killed and wounded, principal
ly of the Fantee force. Lieut. Swanzy was the
only officer killed. The amount of the 1 ss of the
Ashantees is not known. Their force was esti
mated at about 15.000 men. We had an oppor
tunity, ill this battle of witnessing the use of field
pieces, from which were fired grape and canister
shot, which caused great havook among the ene
my, and so much surprised them, that they show
ed no disposition whatever to renew the battle.
They came down with a determined intention to
t ike the Castle. The battle was fought about
three quarters of a mile from the shore. Parties
of marines and seamen were landed from the The
tis to aid in that contest. The loss of the British
amounted to 105 killed and 400 wounded. When
the Thetis left Cape Coast, on the 22d of July,
nothing had been heard or seen <>!’ the enemy
since the battle, although parties had been sent
out in search of them. It was, therefore, sup
posed. that they hud given up the contest, and
had retired to their o’ n country. Colonel Suth
erland came home in the Thetis.
Charles X. has commenced his reigr. in a mun
’ ner which cannot fail to render him popular with
the French people. He has not only distinguish
ed himself by the usual acts of mercy towards
prisoners ami state criminals, but has done a bet
ter service by discontinuing the censorship of the
press, imposed during the reign of his brother.
The opposition journals were felicitating them
selves upon the removal of *he censorship, and
some of them, hi making the first use of their re
stored freedom, publish articles which had been
suppressed, in order to show tiow frivolously, as
they deem, the power was, in many instances, ex
ercised.
REPUBLICS OF HAYTI.
Pout au Prince. Oct. 6, 18 ‘4.
Circular. — John P. Boyer, President of Hay
ti, to Ihe Commandants of Departments.
The Envoys, who, upon the request that was
made to me, I sent to treat iu France of the. recog
nition of the independence of Hayti, have return
ed. Their mission has not resulted in the man
ner we had a right to expect it would, because
the French government, incredible as it may ap
pear, still pretend to the chimerical right of sove
reignty over this country. This pretension,
which it appeared to have renounced, is forever
inadmissible. It is anew proof Os what 1 have
before declared, that our only safety’ is in our own
unshaken resolutions, and how well founded
were the apprehensions which induced the meas
ures 1 have adopted. Under these circumstances,
it becomes you, more than ever, to refer to the
directions of my proclamation of the 6th January
last, and the private instructions which have fol
lowed it. Press with activity all the necessary
works ; put in good order the artillery and muni
tions of every kind. Let nothing be neglected.
Put in requisition the workmen of the army, and
even, if it he necessary, private individuals, to
have in readiness the gun-carriages which are yet
unfinished. Do every thing in such a manner
that, in case of invasion by the enemy, you may
not be retarded in any one point. Remember
your duties, youi responsibility, and act accord
ingly. The national honour demands (you will
not lose sight of this) that safety and quiet be as
sured to those strangers who, upon the publick
faith, guarantied by the constitution, may be re
siding in this country. Protect them and their
property, so that they may be in the most perfect
security. It will be a sufficient reflection to be
sensible of the infamy which will be thrown upon
the nation, if, under any circumstances, we shall
a. t otherwise. Destroy die implacable enemies
who shallplace their sacreligiou* feet on our territo
ry, but let us never disgrace our cause by a dis
honourable action. In sending deputies to ar
range the forms of a recognition of our indepen
deuce, I yielded to the requests made to me by
the agents of the government of the king of
France. It was necessary to perform this act, to
take from malevolence every pretext lor taxing
me with obstinacy. It was necessary to do it for
my own peace of mind, and, in tact, to fix the i
opinion of the nation upon this important point j
I believe, in this respect, that I performed my du- i
ty j but I have the satisfaction of declaring that I |
have not been deceived.
The Kepubiick is free: it is forever independ
ent, since we are determined to bury ourselves 1
under its ruins rather than submit to a stranger.
In the meanwhile, the enemies of Hayti rashly
count upon divisions among us. What folly, and,
at ttie same time, what duplicity ! Let us be eter
nally united. Faithtul to our duties, we shall be,
with the assistance of Ihe Almighty, forever in
vincible. BOYER.

Geological Curiosity. —The Clarksburg (Va.)
I Intelligencer of Oct. 7, states that on the premi-es
o! David Hall, about five and a half miles from
Booth’s Ferry, a company have been engaged for
some time in boring for salt water. They com
menced in the bed of Elk Creek upon a solid
rock; “at the distance of about 24 feet, they
struck a large vein of beautiful water, exceeding
ly cold, and a little brackish to the taste which
discharges itself at the top of a small gum inserted
into the rock, and about 18 inches high. At the
distance of about 118 feet, they passed through
a rich vein, or bed of copper, about four feet in
thickness; and at the depth of about 180 feet,
I they opened a strong vein of wind, which instant
i ly found vent at the top of the well in a tremen
-1 dous -oaring and spouting of water, throwing up
i perpendicular columns of that element, to the
distance ot 30 feet! ! Although Ihe diameter of
the well is not more than 2 1-4 inches, it is sup
posed there is not less than 160 gallons of water
discharged in one minute of time!! For some
distance round this perpendicular shoot of water,
plays an imperceptiole gas or vapour, so very in
flammable, as instantly to take fire whenever that
element comes in contact with it. The verge of
the circumference of this gas is not perceptible,
therefore, those who are unacquainted with its
igDitibie qualities, iu the act of putting tire to this
curious lamp of nature, have found them-.‘Vs
enveloped in flames, and pretty well singed be
fore they had any idea of being within reach of
its touch ! It has been tried in vain to extinguish
the flames with water.
The only effectual method is to smother it with
a large cloth, which can only be applied when
the spouting and flame lias somewhat abated.
The intervals between the times of spouting are
uncertain, it lias been known to spout two or
three times in a week, and may be seen to epout
at any time, by putting down the poles after the
Well lias been eight or ten days unoccupied.
A most extraordinary case of forgery is stated
in a London paper. A man hy the name of Hen
ry Fauntleroy stands charged with having com
mitted forgery to the amount of two hundred
thousand pounds, or about a million of dollars.
He was a managing partner in an extensive bank
ing establishment—the first forgery was ail instru
ment by which he sold property to the amount of
thirty thousand pounds, and pocketed the profits.
He exculpates his partners in the banking estab
lishinent altogether, and is now confined, with
two watchmen employed night and day, to pre
vent him from the perpetratiou of suicide.
Among the wonders of the vegetable creation,
the publick papers mention the following:—At
the Middlesex Cattle Show, a water-melon weigh
ing 48 pounds—at Salem, a beet, 25 pounds—in
Hillsborough, a cabbage-head, 22 pound*—at
Portland, a Canada squash, weighing 97 pounds
—and in Canada, near Montreal, a cucumber,
four feet two inches long.
When Mr. Wilberforce was candidate for Hull,
his sister, an amiable and witty young lady, offer
ed the compliment of anew gown to each of the
wives of those freemen who voted for her broth
er ; on which she was saluted with the cry of
‘••Miss Wilberforce forever!” when she pleas
antly observed, “I tiuuk you gentlemen—but 1
cannot agree with you, for really I do not wish to
be Miss Wilberforce Jorever.”
Mr. Noah, whose good humour nothing can ruf
fle, and who even in defeat, finds food tor merri
ment, thus notices the result of the New York
state election:—
“ Stale Election. —ln our last we waited for the
“ Lion of the West.” He is come, and we want
to see no more of him—he shows his teeth instead
of his tail—briefly, every thing is gone in favour
of Clinton. Such a sweeping defeat—such an
overwhelming rout, we have not heard of since
the battle of Waterloo. We kept up our fainting
spirits until w- heard from Suffolk ; 80 in favour
of Clinton, el tu brute; old -Suffolk, which used
to give 1400 against him. We gave up the ship,
having fought her as well as we could, and to the
very last. Mr. Clinton’s majority will fall little
short of 10,000.”
We are glad to be able to state, from unques
tionable information, that Benjamin Smith, Esq.
of Elizabethtown, N. J. who died on the 23d inst.
has bequeathed $2,500 to endow a scholarship in
the Theological Seminary at Princeton.

[communication.]
Departed this transitory life, on the 12th inst.
at his residence in Luicolnton, Ga. Mr. Lewis Sto
! vail aged 35 years. Mr. S. left a beloved wife,
i four small children, and a numerous connexion of
relatives to regret their irreparable lose. Asa
i husband and a father he was kind, tender, and af
fectionate; as a neighbour and a citizen, he was
i useful and respectable, and will be much missed
in his circle. During his protracted illness he was
patient and submissive to a degree not common
with persons labouring under the same disease ;
and for some months previous to his departure,
he frequently expressed a hope, that his uljlictions
had been sanctified, and that Jesus Christ had
been formed in his soul. But especially in the
last days of the closing scene, he after expressed
his willingness to depart and be with Christ.”
He renounced all confidence in the flesh. He
trusted in no merits of his own ; but rested above
j on the Righteousness es the blessed Redeemer ;;
and his last praying breath beard, was that the
Lord would hear his poor petitions,and for Christ’s
sake accept of such an unworthy worm.— Thus
died our friend breathing out his departing spirit
into the bosom of his God and Saviour. and tho’
fie has left a numerous train of relatives to lament
their loss, yet they will not sorrow as those who
haie no hope, seeing he departed in the prospect
of a future and glorious immortality.
