WEDNESDAY MORNING, JULY 3. We are requested to state that a Barbecue will be given by Mr. Sueaiian, at Hampton Course, to-morrow, between the hours of 4 and 5 o’clock, and that preparations have been made for the ac commodation of some 4 or 500 persons, more or floss. It appears to be pretty well established, says tlyjgßaltimore Chronicle, that Lieutenant Moore, of the U. S. Navy, him accepted the commander[ the Texas Navy, and that he will carry with him twenty or thirty of our young officers. It is said in the Boston Atlas that Com. Thomas Ap. C. Jones, volunteered for this command, and that Lieut. Moore agreed to serve under him, but that the services of Com. J. were not accepted on ac count of his advanced ago. The New Albany la. Argus says, that Gen Stapp, as Fund Commissioner, has negotiated for Indiana, a loan of §4,000,000, to be appropriated to the prosecution of Internal Improvements. The steam ship British Queen was to leave Portsmouth, July Ist, for New York, as appears by an advertisement, which gives her tonnage at 2016, and 500 horse power, with Lieut. Richard Roberts as commander. The British Queen is intended to depart on the first of each alternate month, from London and New York, through out the year. The Yiiioinians call the following a Sockdo loger—Gov. Cannon, of Tennessee, in reply to tpcaker Polk, at Winchester, in that State, a few ays ago, forcibly illustrated one of the evil ten dencies of the Sub Treasury scheme, by the strong- J est of all possible modes of argument,—the rcla | tion of actual occurrences. “ Fellow citizens, (ho said.) many of you, I be lieve were but recently volunteers in an arduous ii Florida campaign. You well know how you suf ■ fared there; and also know that the pay you reN ft ceived, by the direction ot the present hard mo ■ nay Administration, was about 25 or 30 cents per I Gay in shinplasters, while my ‘honorable’ compe- K titor, who now solicits your votes, was shovelling y into his pocket sixteen dollars a day in gold and H silver ! This is the meaning, I take it. of the h‘; boasted Sub Treasury, which furnishes one cur r renev for the Office-holders and another for the V Pe 'ple r . f Correspondence of the New York Express. Havana, Juno 17, 1839. Admiral Baudin, in the French frigate Ncreide, if with the steamer Meteore, and gun brigDunois, I went to sea on the 15th. The steamer Phaeton b is stiil in port. Admiral Baudin, it is said, is bound for New York. The English brig of war Sappho, Lieutenant Frazier, and schooner of war Pickle, arrived here on the 13th. The latter gave chase to a slaver under Portuguese colors, oil' the Isle of Pines, and obliged her to run ashore. She has brought to this port about 160 negroes, taken from the slaver, the rest, with the crew, escaped. The ~ slaver was set on lire and burned. There is some considerable sickness among the crews of the shipping in port, but in the city it is generally healthy. From Nova Scotia. —The Revenue Cutter Himilton, Capt. Sturgis, despatched on the 1 llh mi. by the Secretary of the Treasury, to inquire into the causes of the seizures of fishermen un der the flag of the United States, returned on Saturday afternoon, and immediately made his report to the (Jollectoi of this port. The report 11 will probably be published in a day or two.— Capt. Sturgis states that there had been no addi tional seizures of fishermen. On her arrival at £ Yarmouth, N. S. the Hamilton was received by a salute of twenty-two guns, which was returned. Capt. S. and his officers received every attention from the authorities there. — Boston Adv. Oun Navy and Army. —The Norfolk Bea con alludes to the line condition of the British Navy, and forcibly observes : “The better prepared any nation is for war, the less the danger of actual hoslilites. It England had not a ship in commission, nor a single three decker in her dockyards, the danger of war would be a thousand fold greater than now. It is in the capacity to repel aggression promptly and effec tively, that nations can ente tain reasonable hopes of peace. And we trust that our government will reflect upon the ugly questions that the I troubles on the Canada and New Brunswick frontiers may force upon it, and prepare forthwith to put our Navy and Army in the best possible condition. It is an humbling reflection that a few three deckers from Great Britain, can lay an embargo on our ports whenever the British min istry so resolves. Wo have the highest confi dence in the valor of our people—we know what they have accomplished under the pressure of al most intolerable difficulties and dangers—but all the experience of the past admonishes us to an ticipate in time of peace the preparations of ac m "'♦wl war ” Canal across the Isthmus or Panama.— ! i The Republic of New Grenada has granted to a | company the privilege ol making a canal, railroad, or macadamised road, over this isthurns. In 1830 this p ivilege was accorded to Col. Charles Uid- I . die. The conditions of the privilege not having been fulfilled, it has been granted to a company associated with the house of Solomon & Co. of Guadaloupe. The agent of this company is now in Europe, with the view of raising the means, and making the preparations for this enterprise. The conditions of tho contract are concisely jt these : 1. The intermarine communication must ter g urinate at one end, in the town ol Panama. It K; may be a canal, a railroad, or macadamised road. 2. If a canal he made, the duties of transports tion to accrue to the Government shall ho one per cent. 3. The navigation of the river Chagrcs, in ca noes, shall not he interrupted. 4. Vessels under the New Grenadian flag shall pay ten per cent less toll, than those of other na tions; that is, ten per cent oil the toll. 5. This privilege shall continue fifty years, from the completion of the work, for which six years are allowed. (i. The company shall begin their operations in three years from the date of the contract. Failing to comply with this condition they shall pay $25,000 penalty to the slate. 7. At the end of the term of this privilege, (fif ty years,) the canal shall become the property of the republic. It may safely he predicted that the funds for making this canal, under the present contract, will never he raised. Contrary to the usual in ducement to embark in such enterprises, that of an increasing value in the stork, in the present case, the slock must diminish in value every day, since it must become the property of the state at the end of fifty years.— O' lube. From the. Cincinnati Daily News, June 17. Mormon Meeting. Agreeably to public notice, a meeting was he ld in the College Chapel last evening, which was opened by a few remarks from a gentleman ac companying Mr. Greene ; after which Mr. Greene gave a statement of the early settlement of the Mormons in Missouri, and a history of their per secution, which has hardly a parallel even in the persecution of the primitive Christians. They were ruthlessly driven from their homes; their property destroyed ; the* women and children forced into the woods, without any shelter from the inclemency of the weather, (it being in the month of January) where they roamed about till their feel became so sore that their enemies track ed them by foot prints of blood. The men were in many instances cruelly murdered. On one occasion the mob attacked a smith shop, into which nine of the Mermans and two boys had taken refuge; it being a log house, the mob fired between the logs and killed every individual of the nine men ; they then entered and dragged the two boys from under the bellows, who begged for mercy in most piteous tones; one of the mis creants applying his rifle to the ear of the young est, (who was but nine years old, said,‘My lad, we have no time to quarter you, hut we will halve you,’ and immediately shot away the whole up per portion of his head. The other boy was se verely wounded in the hip, but had the presence of mind to fall and remain quiet, and so escaped; he is still living, and is at Quincy, 111. Speaking of the massacre, ho said, “they had killed my fa ther and brother, and I was afraid if I moved they would kill me too.’) To rap the climax, the villians plundered the dead bodies of their clothes, &c. In another instance a part of the mob pur sued an aged man, who, finding he could not escape, turned, and raising his hands to Heaven, begged for mercy; the reply he received was a shot from a rifle, and he fell mortally wounded ; he still besought them to spare him, when one of the party picked up a scythe, or sickle, and literally hacked him to pieces us he lay on the ground. This man assisted in the achievement of our liberties in the revolutionary war. Mr. Greene’s narrative contained many such instan ces, and was indeed a talc of blood and sufl’er ing at which the heart sickens. [At the next meeting a full account of these transactions will he given, in extenso, wc hope. And he it remembered, their truth is established beyond a doubt.] Hon. Thomas Morrir (hen addressed the meet ing. Ho said lie had been in the vicinity of these transactions, and had taken some pains to acquaint himself with the facts; and from all he could Iciirn, the Mormons were an industrious and harmless people; that no specific charges had been brought against them, by the executive of Missouri, but that their persecution was for no other reason than that their religion gave offence to a rnob—for causes which may atany lime induce the same persecution of any religious sect in our land. He said he believed the statements made by the gentleman to be true, and that they were corroberated by those who resided in the vicinity of their occurrence. On motion, a chairman and secretary were ap pointed, and resolutions passed condemning the conduct of the executive of Missouri; appointing a committee to prcpaic a statement of the treat ment received by this distressed people, and rec ommending them to the favorable notice ol the people of Cincinnati. The meeting then adjourned, to meet next Monday evening at the same place. Attempted Escape, and Death of a Con vict.—On Sunday, the 23d ult, one of the con victs on Blackwell's Island, near New York, na med Isaac Stag, recently sentenced for three years was found to bo missing from his place of con finement. Search was made, and he wasdiscov ered attempting to make good his escape by swim ming a:ross the East river. He was hailed by the sentinel on shore, to wdiich, however, the un fortunate convict paid no attention, he being then nearly in the middle of the current, when the for mer fired, and, as Stagg immediately sunk, it is supposed that the ball must have struck his head* and caused instant death. Nothing was after wards seen of him, nor has the body been yet re covered. Light Houses lighted with Gas.— The Light House at Barcelona, in Chautauquo coun ty, is lighted by natural gas, which escapes from fissures in the rocks near the shore. Ihe supply is a never failing one and no light equals it in power. A rude reservoir has been erected over one of the fissures in the rock, by which the gas is conveyed in pipes to the Light House. The Buffalo Advertiser reminds us that gas streams similar to those at Portland or Barcelona, exist in the neighborhood of Fredonia, a few miles from Barcelona, and that the supply obtained from them has been used for lighting that flourishing village—hut few have any knowledge of the fact above mentioned. It is certainly curious that gas of so pure a quality, should issue from the earth in such quantities, and for such a length of time.— N. Y. Express. It is stated in the Pittsburg Gazette that Cap tain Pepin,—who, in conjunction with Lieut. Sharonbien, both of the Russian Naval Engineer set vice, is visiting the States on the Ohio and Mississippi, in order to make themselves ac quainted with the steamboat navigation on those waters,—has reached that city in the prosecution 0 f the duty confided to him. Among other mat ters which engaged his attention at Pittsburg, was th c United Slates snag boat, for the removal of from the rivers, of which he has made a drawing with an expectation that similar boats may lie found useful on thc Don and Wolga, and other Russian rivers. The cunning of the Fox is illustrated by the following anecdote from the Spirit of the Times: “W amlenng, some time since, along the shore ot Long Island, and not far from Smithlown, my attention was suddenly arrested by the peculiar juxtaposition of a fox and a flock of wild geese, that were lazily and confidently floating down the current along the verge of sedge which thickly coated the hanks. Reynard, as soon as he obsei ved the approach of his intended prey, betook himself to a device worthy of Talleyrand. Ho seized upon a largo bunch of sedge grass—drop ped quietly into the stream, and having swam just so far into the stream as to intercept his float ing game, “marked time,” with all Ids body n er ged, except the tip end of his nose, capped with the aforesaid bunch of sedge grass, until lie found himself in the midst of the unsuspecting flock, when, throwing offhis disguise, he made a dash I at, and secured two fine geese, which he bore olf 1 triumphantly. I having no disposition to inter fere in so admirably conducted a specimen of his legitimate vocation.” Tub Last Thial op Fidelity.—The reign of Napoleon, worried and ransacked as it has been by the writers of memoirs, recollections and histories, is a mine that still lias a multitude of rich, and, as yet,unexplored views. The history of the secret associations that spring up in the latest days of the emperor would form a most curious and interesting volume, ami there would | be no lack of materials to till it. The society of the United Brothers alone, would furnish pages of the most absorbing interest, while nothing could appeal more forcibly to the imagination than the strange and dramatic episodes collected with its mysterious imitation. Perhaps a hun dred incidents might he related as striking and well conceived as the following. An officer of the French army, having incur red the suspicion or resentment of the Emperor, thought it expedient to abandon his country, and take refuge in one of the Austrian provinces; and here he became advised of, and initiated into a society, the object of whose formation was to hurl to the ground the Colossus whose arm smote and governed the whole continent of Europe with a sceptre of iron. One day a letter was brought to him, containing the usual signs and passwords of the society, and requiring him to repair on tho following night to a secluded spot in a forest, where he would meet some of his as sociates. He went, butho found nobody.—The orders were repeated four times; the officer sought the appointed place, with no better sue- I cess than the first. On the fifth night of his ap poaranco at the. rendezvous, after waiting some time, he was on the point of returning, when loud cries suddenly arrested his attention. Drawing his sword, he hastened to tho spot whence they seemed to proceed, and was fired upon by three men, who, on seeing that ho re mained unwounded, instantly took to flight— but at bis feet lay the bleeding corpse, in which, by the feeble light of the moon, he in vaiusought for tokens of returning animation. He was yet bending over the dead man, when a detachment of chasseurs, summoned apparently by the noise of the p.stills that had l«en discharged by him self, came uy> suddenly and arrested him as the assassin. He was loaded with chains, tried the next day, and condemned to die for his supposed crime. His execution was ordered to take place at midnight. Surrounded by the ministers of justice, ho was led, at a slow pace, by the light of torches, and the funeral tolling of bells, to a vast square, in the centre of which was a scaffold, en vironed by horsemen ; beyond these were a nu merous group of spectators, who muttered impa patiently, and at intervals sent forth a cry of ab horrence. The victim mounted the scaffold, and his sen tence was read, and the first act of tragedy was on the point of fulfilment, when an officer let fall a word of hope. An edict had just been pro mulgated by the government offering a pardon and life to any condemned criminal who should disclose tho members and secret tokens of a par ticular association. the existence of which the Frenchman to whom these words were address ed had lately become aware of, and of which ho had become a member. Ho was questioned, hut he denied all knowledge, they urged him to con fess, with promises of additional reward—bis on ly reply was a demand for immediate death—and his initiation was completed. All that passed was a terrible trial of fidelity, ■ those who surrounded him were members of the society, and every incident that has been descri bed, from the summons to the last moment of ex pected death, was only a step in the progress of the fearful experiment by which he sought to de t termine the trustworthiness of the neophyte.— Foreign paper. Leather Guns.—ln 1031, leather cannons - were used by the Swedes with considerable suc cess. They were considered an improvement s upon the wooden cannon then in use, and which - consisted of thick staves of wood bound together by iron hoops. Front the French of M. Broca. i Charlotte ( (mice, the Assassin of Gene ral Marat. Charlotte Cordee was born at St. Saturnindes Ligncrcts.in the year 17G8. Nature bad bestow ed on her a handsome person, wit, feeling, and masculine energy of understanding. She received her education in a convent; hut disdaining the frivolous miutia! of that species of education, she , labored with constant assiduity to cultivate her ' own powers, and hourly strengthened that bent . of her imagination towards the grand and sublime, which accorded with the inflexible purity of her , manners, while it fitted her for that perilous en r terprise, to which, at the age ot 25, she tell a dc , voted sacrifice. . Her love of study rendered her careless of the • homage that her beauty attracted, and her desire i of independence caused her to refuse many offers i of marriage from men to whom her heart was in , different. But even philosophy and patriotism . could not always render their fair and heroic dis [ ciple invulnerable to the shafts of love. The young and handsome Bellzunee, major-cn second ■ of the regiment of Bourbon, quartered at Caen, became devoted to her and succeeded in inspiring her with a passion as virtuous as profound. This young officer was massacred on the 11th of August 1789, by a furious multitude, after Marat in sev eral numbers of his journal called V Aami du People, had denounced the unfortunate Bellzunee, as a counter-revolutionist. From that moment the soul of Charlotte Cor- I j ee knew no happiness, and reposed only on the I desire of vengeance upon him whom she believed | to be the author of her misery. To execute with perseverance and caution that ! ! which she had planned upon principle, was natu- ! | ral to the determined and steady mind of Char- | lotte Cordee. She left Caen on the 9th of July | 1798, and arrived on the third day about noon at ) ! Paris. Some commissions with which she was | j charged by her family and friendr, occupied her J the first day of her arrival. Early on the next morning she went to the Palais Royal, bought a knife, and, getting into a hackney coach drove to the house of Marat. It was not then possible for her to obtain an audience of him, though she left nothing unassayed, that she thought likely to in fluence in her favor the persons who denied her admittance. Being returned to her hotel, she wrote the fol- , lowing letter to Marat— < “ Citizen —l amjust arrived from Caen. Vottr love for your country inclines mo to suppose you ' will listen with much pleasure I*' the secret events 1 of that part of the republic. I will present my self at your house; have the goodness to give or- , ders for my admission, and grant me a moment’s , private conversation: I can point to the means by \ which you can render an important service to ; France.” When Charlotte Cordee arrived at the house of Marat, between seven and eight in tiro evening, and spoke impressively of her desire to see him, o the woman who opened the door Marat, who heard her from Iris bath, where ire then was, con cluded it was the person from whom he had re ceived the letter of the morning, and ordered that she should immediately he admitted. Being left alone with him she intended to im molate to the monos of her lover and the injuries of her country, and sitting close by his side, she answered with the most perfect self-possession his eager question concerning the proscribed deputies at Caen. Ho demanded their names, with those of the magistrates at Calvados, nil of whom she named accurately. While ho wrote memoran dums oftheir conversation upon his table, Char lotte Cordee, measured with her eye (he spot whereon to strike; when, Marat having said that all of these deputies and their accomplices should expiate their treason on the scullold, her indigna tion received his words as a signal of vengeance ; she snatched the weapon from her bosom, and buried the knife in his heart! a single exclama tion escaped from the raise ruble wretch —‘For me. 1 ' he said and expired. Tranquil and unmoved amid the general con sternation, Charlotte Cordee, ns if she proposed to atone for the murder, however she deemed it necessary, by a public death, did not even attempt her eseape.—Shu had received several violent blows on her head, from a neighbor of Marat, the person who ran into the room on hearing the news of his assassination ; hut when the armed force arrived, she put herself under their protection.— An officer of the police drew up minutes of the * assassination, which she cheerfully signed, and was then conveyed to the prison of the Abbey. Calumniated, abused, and even personally ill treated by the faction of Marat she was three days exposed in her dungeon to all the insults and ill usage, before she was brought to trial. During this interval, she had found means to write to her , father imploring his forgiveness for having thus disposed (.flier life without his concurrence. It was in the presence of the men about to de cide upon her death, one should have seen Char lotte Cordee, to have felt the grandeur of her character. The records of the trial, and her own letters, give a faint picture of her dignified and noble deportment. If she despised the men who satin judgement on her life, she forbore to insult them; hut replied to their vi iterated questions with a composure and presence of mind that astonished them,.; while her face amt person were animated with the bloom of youth and beauty, her words were graced with the eloquence of a sago! The defence made by her counsel deserves to he recorded here for its peculiar propriety in her circumstances. “ You have hoard,” said her counsel, altogether confounded by the courage she had displayed, “the answers of the prisoner; she acknowledges her guilt—sin even acknowledges, in a very de liberate manner, her long predetermination of the event. She has not suffered even the most revolt ing of its circumstances to pass unnoticed by you. •She confesses the whole charge, and does not seek in any manner to justily herself, in the very presence I may say of death; ibis absence of all remorse; these are so far from being natural, that they can only he resolved into that political frenzy, which places a poignard in the hands of a maniac, and it is for you, citizen jurors, to determine what weight this consideration ought to have in the balance of justice.” After the tumult and loud applause that fol lowed her condemnation had ceased, she addres dl herself to her counsel—“ You have defended me," she said in a manner ns generous as deli cate ; "it was the only one that could have ren dered me that service which was in your power; accept my thanks and my esteem. Those gen tlemen inform me that my property is confiscated, hut there arc some little debts to pay in my pris on ; and as a proof of the esteem 1 hear you, I give the performance of this my last duty into your hands. 'I he hour of her punishment, had drawn im mense crowds into every avenue to the place of the execution. When she appeared alone with the executioner, in the cart, in despite of the con strained attitude in which she sat, and of the dis order of her dress, she excited the silent admira tion of those even who were hired to curse her. One man alone had courage to raise his voice in her praise; he, was a deputy from the city of Mentz—his name was Adam Laix. He cried— “S/ie. i. V greater than lirutus He published the same sentiment, and signed his own condem nation. He was shortly after guillotined. Consignees per.South Carolina Kail IConrl. M Atiinuito, July 2, 1830. P. A.

There may he some who suppose it to bo all important to feed on the multicanlis, to such 1 would say that 1 have fed entirely this season on the native mul berry, and from experience, I find that the worm will do well on them. 1 have seen sewing silk made from the native mulberry of a superior qual ity, and it is my opinion that the multicanlis will add nothing to live health and prosperity of the worm, yet I believe that the texture of the silk produced from the multicanlis will he somewhat superior, and that the vise of it will save much trouble and some expense. And now, as a native Georgian, suffer me to say to my countrymen, that the raising of Silk is rot such a humbug as some suppose, but will bear the test of close calculation, in the which it will prove to be much more lucra tive and less laborious than the culture of cotton, and in all probability .will remain so for many years.

The country around the Springs admits of a variety of excursions, on horse hack or in carriages. Tim Limestone Spring is a highly medicinal water. In add lion to Lime, there is found Magne sia and Epsom Salts in it; ami the great quantity of Carbonic arid gas, constantly escaping from the Spring, renders the water very light. To Dyspe i. lies, and persons laboring under liver complaints,or of constipated habits, experience enables ns to say that this water is in valuable. If any visitor labor- . ing under any of these diseases lias ever visited the place, and not been benelitted, it is to ns un known.

Since they have been discovered,they have been found to bo very henelicial to many weak and debilitated persons. The grounds about the Springs are beautifully laid out, and alford many fine anil delightful walks. Several intelligent and respectable gentlemen have settled permanently at the Springs, and con si it ute at all times a delightful society. They have made their settlements with a two-fold object, health and the education of their children. For this latter purpose they have established two ex cellent schools —a Male Academy, under the di rection of Mr. Housa, and a Female Academy un der the cure of Miss Williams.

When it is remembered that tins establishment owes its foundation to the liberal ity and patriotism of many gentlemen who have advanced large sums of money for the purpose of presenting to the people of South Carolina and (ieorgia, a place of health and relaxation, almost at their own doors, it is to be imped that it will not languish, decline and die for the want of patronage. ’Flic thousands expended in Northern travelling, may be saved, and the people of tlio seaboard and the mountains may enjoy all the mutual benefit of travel ami intercourse.
