any paper in the state, with one or two excep-
tions; As we have been at considerable ex-
pense in purcliasinghype, &*.c. we look to our
‘ patrons for rernunera\tion-,'hy. a strict punctual-
ity in the payment of their debts.

' Fire.-—The Paper-mill belonging to Messrs.
‘ D. ISL S.Comstock, ofDanbury, was consumed
 fire on Vilerlnesday morning last, together
with the greater part of its contents. It ori-
ginated in the rag-room on the second floor,
and although the workmen were in the mill
at the time yet the flames spread so rapidly
that scarcely any thing was saved.

The Storm.—By the accounts we have re-
ceived of the disasters occasioned by the late
storm, there is reason to believe‘ that its" vio-
lence was equal to that on the night ofthe me-
morable third of September. At Norfolk the
storm commenced on Saturday night, and at
Boston on Sunday afternoon. , The Mercan-
tile Advertiser of Tuesday mentions upwards
of 30 vessels of different descriptions, which
weresunk, capsized, or dismasted,in and near
that port. At Philadelphia 7 vessels were
sunk-,8 or 9 capsized or otherwise injured,and
ope. man d_rowned. At Georgetown,S.C. the
gale was severe,’much damage done to the
town, and 15 or 20 vessels were driven ashore,
some sunk, masts carried away, 8t.c. It is sta-
ted by the captain ufa steam-boat from New-
Brunswick to New-York that the shores on
the way were lined with small craft; between
50 and 60 vessels were counted : at Amboy
several lives were lost. A gentleman from
Flushing states that 7 or 8 sloops were driven
ashore between Hurl-Gate andThroggs Point.
At Jers'eyCity 2 schrs. were completely wreck-
ed. The captain ofa sloop from Troy reports
that he saw 7 or 8 vessels ashore, 4 sunk; and
‘.2. or 3 others which were much injured. The
wharfat 'Governor’s Island was washed away,
the boat-house blown down, and 3 boats un-
derit crushed to pieces; several other boats
dashed to‘ pieces among the rocks: a good
deal of drift lumber is lodged on the lsland.—
Mr.'Purdy’s carpent'er’s shop,and Mr. Clark’s
livery stable,in the Bowery,were blown down,
and 3 horses killed. A mail-coach was dash-
ed to pieces at Trenton by the falling ofa tree,
-and one of the passengers instantly killed.—
The schr.Margaret Ann, Capt.Daniels,‘bound
to Petersburgh, was wrecked at Middlctown,
N. J. and all on board perished. Two brigs
were driven ashore at Old Point-Comfort,one
of which will be totally lost. A_ vessel from
Shrewsbury ar. at N. York reports '13 vessels
ashore near that place. At Oysteibay 5 ves-
sels were driven ashore. Two schrs. were lost
at Little Egg-Hal-bor, and of 18- persons on
board one of them only 3 were saved. A ves-
sel from Richmond lost one man overboard in
the gale. A gentleman from VVeathersfield
was lost from the foretopsail yard of a schr.
frdtnl Baltimore, and in attempting to save
him the mate and another gentleman were
drowned. A schr. went ashore at Squam In-
lei, and all hands on board are supposed to
haveperislied. A vessel was lost in the Del-
aware and 2 persons perished. At Salem,
Mass. only one vessel rode out the gale.—
At New/bnryport 14 or 15 vessels were dama-
ged. AtBostou thegale was more violent than
has been experienced for several years. The
roads were rendered impassable from the
quantity of snow which fell_ on Sundayand
Monday. The shipping at the wharves and
in _the harbor, sustained less damage than
might have been expected from the violence
of the’-wind-—ouly 9 vessels rec'd any injury.
The brig Tontine,"Wm_. G. Betts, master,
which sailed from New-York’ for Charleston
on Saturday, experienced ‘the gale off the
Capes of Delaware, carried away main-top-
mast, lost main-top sail and top-gallant-sail,
split the forcs-ail and jib, and received other
d‘am:rge-—rctu'rnetl to New -York to‘ repair.

We have been frequently asked ‘ what is
the cause of the present state of things in Eu-
rope?’ VVe can answer thelquestioii in no,b'et-
ter way than by extracting the following from
the last Cltristiah Spectatoi'.

_Our readers, we have no doubt, are gene-
rally informed of the intelligence ,received by
the late. arrivals from Europe. _The next ar-
rival will most probably_announce,,the‘com-.
mencement of-w_ar against Spain. The brigirr
of this war can be related in few words.

It will be rec'o'll’e_.cted that t_he_Spanish na-
tion, after one of the most arduous and patri-
otic struggles of which history furnishes any
example, finally succeeded in their resistance
to the tyranny of Bonaparte,,drove the usur-
per from the throne, and restored~the"cro_wn
to the family of their law ul sovereign. The
blood of the nation was freely poured out in
torrents, to acconeplish this object ; arid even
the power ofNapoleon himselfwasinsufficient
toestablisll a new dynasty in Spain. Joseph
Bonaparte, was compelled to abdicate the
throne; Never was 8\[ll0l'e devoted loyalty
exhibited in tlie~annalsof history, than that of
the Spanish people to their own monarch. By
the patriotic _exerti‘ons of his people Ferdinand
was restored to the throne of liis’anc’estors.

From the progress of science and civiliza-
tion, and successive improvements in the sys-
tem of social order, the Spanish people in
189.0 had become extensively dissatisfied with
the existing government‘: particularly with
the clergy, the inquisition and other abuses
ofreligion ; and the absolute authority ofthe
monarch. They desired a limited, not an ab-
solute monarchy. They were tired of the a-
buses, which, for a long succession of years,
had been practiced on,them, under pretence
of religiou,by a corrupt, slavish and hypocrit-
ical priesthood. The inquisition in Spain,
like the Bastile in France, had poured forth
the groans of its victims,.__till the spirit of the
age would no longer end_ure the abuse. From
these and other causes originated the revolu-
tion of 18°10; and though the first insurrec-
tionary movements appeared among the mili-
tary at the Isle d’Leon, yet subsequent events
throughout Spain, showed that the military
were merely the organs of the public will.
The constitution of 1819. was re-established,
and Ferdinand voluntarily swore to maintain
it. Since this time the devotion 0fSpaniards
to their country and constitution, have raised
them in the estimation ofthe world ; and we
had hoped that a people possessing the finest
climate and most genial soil, might again en-
joy peace, happiness, and national prosperity.

The allied sovereigns however have resolv-
ed to change the Spanish cdnstitution by force
and to, restore the ancient regime: and to add
insult to injury, this is undertaken under a
pretence of restoring happiness and security
to Spaniards themselves.

Such is the cause and origin of the war now
about to be waged against the Sprmish people
—a war against a sovereign and independent
nation for adopting aconstitution and form of
government, which they supposed best adapt-
ed to secure the civil and religious rights of
the people, promote their happiness, and ex-
tend the blessings of social order.

The King of France at the opening of his
parliament decl-are’s, that‘ one hundred thou-
sand men, with the Duke d’Angouleme at
their head, are about to march to preserve the
throne of Spain _to a descendant of Henry IV.
to preserve that free country from ruin and
reconcile it with Europe: but let Ferdi_nand
VII. be free to give a constitution to his peo-
ple, which they can obtain only from him. and
hostilities shall cease from that moment.’

So then, the only legitimate mode of ob-
tairiing any alteration of an existing constitu-
tion or form of government is by grant froui
the King! ‘Let Ferdinand be free to give a
coristitittion to his people which theycan obtain
onl_i/from him ! ." This islegitimacy with a wit-
ness ; this is the creedofthe potentates of En -
rope, formerly promulgated by the King of
France, and one hundred thousand men, with
the Duke d’Angouleme at their head, are
probably at this rnomeut enforcing the doc-
trine at the point of the bayonet; and lest the
lessons ofthis army should fail to produce con-
viction, the Emperors ofAustria and Russia
and the King of Prussia are ready to ‘lend their
aid at a moment's warning.

‘ What will be the result ofthis mighty ar-
ray ofdespotic power against the spirit offree-
dom in the peninsula, time alone can divulge.
The crisisis evidently at lianrlyben the great
question is to besettled, whether forms ofgov-
ernment emanating from the will of the peo-
ple shall be permitted to stand, and liberty ac-
quire a permanent foothold in Europe,’ or not.

The following article is from Blackw‘ood’s
./lfagazinc, a well conducted.English Journal.
It gives a ‘ glowing but faithful picture’ ofthe
situation of Europe at the present crisis.

‘ A republic in Spain will seek its fellow in
a republic in Italy. With Spain and Italy rev-
olutionized, how long will France remain
tranquil? how long will Germany, already
heavily repining and rnurinuring, before it
bursts into resistless storm : when these things
come, what will be the fate ofEngland? Is
there, even now, no secret for the revolution-
ary stream through the heart ofher soil? We
will pursue this topic no further. Deus./5'vertat.
And it is beyond all denial,thatthe whole con-
tinentis at this hour in a state ofinternal con-
vulsion; that like the spirits ofPandemonimn,
there is among tne more powerful minds of
Europe a sense of loss and defeat, a-desperate
loss of fierce hazards-a wild and fiery dream
of rebel grandeur, to be won by force ofarms.
The I4 renchnian, cast on the ground by the
fortune of war, feels his hostility to thrones
unextinguished; the German, who fought for
his country under the promise ofa constitution
feels his hopes defeated ; the Italian’, proud of
his ancient memories, and flung ten thousand
fathoms deep from his late ideal independence,
feels and groans; the Pole, loaded with the
Russian fetter, feels and curses his degradation.
Tlirou'gh the whole_ circuit of the continent
there is but one preparation, great and_ terrible,
for a catastrophe, of which no man can calcu-
late the horrors of the close.’ The field is
sown with the serpent teeth ofbitterness, ruin-
ed ambition and inveterate discord. Are we
to see it send up its harvest ofthe spear? The
thrones ofthe Continent stand at this hour in
a mighty cemetry. Itis the will oft-lod wheth-
er the dead shallflbe added to the dead,‘and

the nations melt away, or whe,|,lier the trump-

et shall sound, the graves be broken up, and

all be terror,judgmcnt, and ruin,’

, Tlie French brig Jeuue Ileriette, Le Que!-
le, from St. Jago de Cuba for Nantz, has put‘
into :Savannali, having been boarded on the
17th ult, 6 leagues from,‘ Bavaria,-by a ‘piijate
and robbed of almost every ‘thing of: board,
including 70 doribloons,'sé'veral_go|d watches,
8Lc. ' __ Two ladies,‘ passerigers, in _the schooner
Success, Capt. Ray, ..' from Mantanz"as,_'b’oun_d
to New-Providence, which they had captured
on the 7th, and converted into an assistant,
were put on board the brie’: ‘_ They had been
robbed oftheir rho_ney,_ Jewelry, bedding, and
in short every tliirigbuta few articles ofclo’th-
mg. They had remained on heart! the pirate

ten days. Orieofthe ladies, who had a small

child, had a rope put round her neck, ahd a
knife presented to her breast, to enforce a dis-
closure of any money that was secreted.
VVliile these ladies were on board the pirate,

several American vessels were robbed. The

ladies can give no account of the captain and

crewloftlie sclir. but suppose them to have

been ‘all murdered. The Dutch brig Miner-

va‘, Cpt. Scrager, from Havana, hound to

Arnsterdam, with a valuable cargo of sugar

and molasses, was also captured and burnt by

the samexpirates, aftertaking out whrft articles
they wished. Two ofthe crew ofthy Dutch

brig are onboard ofthe Juene Henriette——the

remaindersupposed to have been put on board,
a vessel bound to England.

.Mord,Pirac'y.-~A letter from Havana of-the
llth ultl. states that a French ship had just ar-
rived t,ere, which had been robbed to wind-
ward, 0;. her entire cargo of wine, 8Lc. She
was taken in amongst the. keys, and all her
cargo ta u out. She came in quite light,with
mast and yards down, to enable her to stand
up. Also,"1rrived "same day, at Portland brig,
which ha l been robbed on the south side of

I/ieut. Co , who commanded one’ of the

small vessels if Com. Porter’s squadron, was
killed at St. ohn’s, P. R. about the 19th ult.
by a shot from\lle fort, while entering the har-
bor, in compan_y‘\with another of the schrs.
A letter from ew-Haven, dated April 5,
states,on the_auth iity ofCapt Davis, ar. from
Martinique, that ' French 74 had captured a
Spanish 9.4 grin br , who attacked her in the
night, through mist’ ke. The Spaniard was
from Havana, or Ve a Cruz, having on board
60 passengars, and allo_ut three million francs,
specie, indigo, cocliin al, &.c. for Cadiz.

Capt. Davis states, tit the capture was not
considered as havingb n madeon the ground
of the attack by the slo p of war.

Nritional Lotterj/.—A etter has been pub-
lished in the National Ilt‘telligencer, written
by a gentleman who, the -.editors ._say, is well
acquainted with the facts, stating that the con-
tractor for the fifth.class (lately drawn) ofthe
National Lottery, has fuile , and refused to
pay the capital prize, and iii uy smaller priz-
es, in the said Lottery, and hat he has now
left the city, without giving t the managers
the least hope that they ever wll be paid.

Horrid Trrmsaction.—Tlie oughkeepsie
Journal states that on Sunday n\pruing last,
about day break, a man by the n me ofSte-
phen Juries, broke into the house \fMr.Wm.
Dcarin, in the south part ofthe tm n, with an
axe. The room he entered was occ pied as a
sleeping room by Mrs:.Luckey, thein itlier in.
law of Mr. Dearin, who was then in ed with
three of Mr. D’s little children. Jouesimme-
diately commenced an attack on the old lady
and the children with the axe, and before Mr.
D. who slept in another part ofthe house and
was alarmed by the screaming ofthe children,
could come to their rescue, mangled them in
such a shocking manner, as to leave it doubt-
ful whether they will survive. Jones pretends
to be deranged. , He is said to be from the
town of Dover. Mr. Dcarin secured him and
broughthim tojuil, where he is now lodged.

Dislressing occurreitce.-—Tlie melancholy
intelligence reached town yesterday morning,
that Mr. DAVID DU.\‘I'I_-\M,0l1eOf0tll' most re-
spectable, wealthy and enterprising merchants,
and a most useful citizen, was accidentally
drowned on Monday, afternoon, on his way
home, from Albany. He took passage in the

the accident to that boat, embarked, with sev-
eral others, on board the sloop Criterion.—-
They had proceeded as far as Verplanck’s
Point, when they were incl. by a heavy squall
about Q o’clock on Monday afternoon, which
obliged them to take in sail._ Mr. Dunham
was on the quarter deck lending a hand in sc-
curing the mainsail, when a sudden flaw filled
the leech ofthe sail which he had hold of, and

swept him overboard. A sloop in company at

the time and near by, threw two lines to him,

one of which he grasped at,but missed it.——
The long boat belogniug to the Criterion im-

mediately put off to his assistance, and had

nearly reached him, notwitlistanding the vio-

lence of the wind and the heavy swell ofthe

sea,but when within five yards ofhim hisexer-

tions became exausted, and hesunk to rise no

mo re.—.Merc. ‘fldv.

Post Oflices.——By a late statement from the
‘Post Master General, it appears that there are
in the United States, "252 post oflices, that
the gross amount of postagos during the year
182'), was 51,128,093, compensation to post
masters $356,155. Incidental expenses ofthe
department $92,958. Expense oftransp_ort-
ing the mail over 85,554 miles of road $777,-
753, and that the balance against the General
Post Ofiice is $28,843. Last year it was
$125,265. The gross amount of postage dur-
ing the year was $71,365 more than that of
18921, whilst the expense of transportation was
less. It is verydoubtful, however, ifCongress
continues yearly to multiply roads, whether
the establishment can support itself much lorr-
o'er.—-Columbian Star.

The expenses of the Pension List in this

It is rumoured,that the present Secretary of
the Navy will be appointed to the Bench or the
Supreme Court of the U. States, to fill the va-
cancy occasioned by the death of Judge Liv-
ingston. It» is also rumoured,‘that Judge
Southard, a Senator of the United States,

_ ‘Lord Byron, distinguislied alike by his po-
etical talents, and infidel 'principles, is said to
be coming to this country. Tlie‘Cliarlestdn
Courier says-—-‘ We are sorry for it. He will
not be pleased with the U. States. Neither
their climate nor their manners are sensualiz-
ed. asin Italy. He will "find thathis nrind
lias travelled in advanceof his person, and
withered the flowers that he hopes for in his
path. He will behold the pious, recoiling from
apostate genius-—-the beautiful, shuddering at
the profaner of innocenoe—and the virtuous
Republican, sneering at the vices ofpeerage.’

The flame Policy.—-Iftlie system of home

supply IS adopted, it will create a very exten-

sive internal trade. Our territory has such a

vanity ofclimate, soil, surface and produc-

trous,_ and such diversities of character and

pprsutts in its inhabitants, that the different

sections must mutually supply each other.-—

I‘he South must supply the North with raw

cotton, and the North must return it in a inan-

l1li}°t_UTf3d _f0l‘m.. The lower territories of the

Mississippi must supply the upper with sugar,

and_the. upper the lower with wheat-. One

section isabundantly supplied with water pow-

ers ; another is deficient—tlie former will be-

come a manufacturing, the other a growing

district. One has inexhaustible stores of fuel

in its coal mines; the other wants them alto-
gether. The one will manufacture by the
powerof steam ; the other will supply the raw

urater_rals._ Tliesingle article of salt springs
Will give rise to an extensive inland trade. If
we ever beconie this manufacturing and self
supplymg ‘nation the internal trade will be
greatly increased. The inland communication‘
of China(wliich is such a self-supplyina na-
tion) is immense. But it will be a souiice of
continual embarrassment, to leave it to the
states to_provide the necessary routes of com-
munication. Lines of road or canal will of-
ten have to cross several states in ashort dis-
tance, us.,ts the case with the Cumberland
road.
strucled by every local jealousy or interest.
Such unprovements ought to rest on a broad
and general basis. . The system of domestic
manufacturing is a national one ; and the
means of carrying it on, ought to be equally
uational.—.'V‘ew-Haven [1eral.'l.

The Shakers.-—-Tlie sect’ of Shakers origin-
ated lll Lancashire, Eng. in 1747 from an ex-
plrtng remnant of Quakers. Among those
who appear to have been most conspicuous in
building tip this sect, was one Anne Lee,whom
they called ‘the mother,’ but who called her.
56”’ ‘ the Word.’ Attended by ‘a number of
her adherents, in 1774 she embarked for this

and its vicinity for a sustenance, they were
joined by the remainder oftheir sect who came
over with their effects, and passing up the
Hudson, they all settled in the vale of “later-
vleit, ‘ eight measured miles’ N. west of the
centre of Albany. From that place there
have been repeated cmigrations; and the
number ofShaker villages is now at least 14.
Each village contains from two to six hundred
persons, and their whole pop. is about 6000“.
I‘heir property 15 estimated at $800,000.
_l‘ Professor Lindsley, of Princeton College,
in an excellent discourse lately published
states the following extraordinary facts :--
‘ For more than thirty years past, certainly
nota single death has occurred among the
students of this institution (the Colleue gfN
- - - . D .1 .
Jersey ,) 1101 have I been able to ascertain that
such an event has ever been witnessed in Nas-
sau-Hall.’—H.1d such an event ever occurred,
ll. could scarcely have escaped the inquiries
and researches of Professor Lindsley ; and it
is therefore fair to presume that it never did
occur ; and yet, it would seem almostmirac-
ulous that in more than seventy years not a
death should have taken place among so large
a number of students as have generally at-
tended that seminary.-—True ./.lm’erican.

The f0ll0“’llIg fa’-‘t,(says the London Globe)
among the singular events ofthe present day,
deserves especial notice. One ofthe mission-
aries, from the Arnericau Board of Missions,
was at Jerusalem in January last, distributing
the ‘Holy Scriptures, and useful tracts. A
Christian missionary, from a part ofthe world
unknown to exist by the first preachers of the
Gospel, is now re-kindling the light of their
holy doctrines in the very place from which it
first emztnated ! This is news indeed.

Ecclosiasticul.—France has, by her Revo-
lution, effected an annual saving to the nation
of more than thirty millions a_/'clollars in her
church establishment, while the clergy are
more equally apportioned to those whom they
are to serve, and the lower orders of ministers
receive a more ample compensation than they
did~under the old establishment. Before the
French revolution the number ofthe secular
clergy,rnonks, nuns, and interior ministers was
460,078, or about one to every 58 persons in
the kingdom. The_ revenue ofthe clergy was
about 33 millions of dollars per annum. The
present number of clergymen in France is 55,
643, and their income $4,!-,_657,00o. They are
paid out of the national treasury, the same as
the army or navy. Tithes are abolished--857
ofthe clergy are protestants who do not belong
to‘the state church, butthey are paid in mg;
same manner as the Catholics.-—Chr'ist. Watch.
