separating ‘them in four divisions," prepared
for the hazardous enterprize. When he left
the camp, he said to his chiefs—"My friends.
if we scatter, yoti will be sure to find me round

the tent of the Pacha.’ Having _said this,the~

signal was given, and the heroes marched on
in silence. ‘-The Turks were taken entirely
by surprise, and the Pacha’s tent surrounded.

Bozzaris ttiitnted the infidels for the‘ir care-
lessness and their defeat; arid then stepping
forward seized, the Pacha with his own hands.
He however received a mortal wound from a
Moor, and was"borne off by his soldiers, while
the Pacha "was killed on the spot. The last
words ofBozzaris'_were these :

“ i\ly=frieiids, to die for liberty is a pleastire,
and not a pain. Ffeedom is not acquired but
at great sacrifices. I die content, because I
have contributed tothe independence of my
country. Continue your services to her, and
do not quit your arms but_ _ainid the destruc-
tion ofyour enemies.” __ _

This is'a deed worthy‘of_ancient'Greece in
her most heroic ages. The character as well
as the fate ofBozzaris may bear a comparison
with that of Epaiiiitiundas; and the Suliotes

was to have been executed on the 9th of Oct.
had been rcprieved in consequence of certain
ilisclosureshe had made, by which more than
300 persons are=said to be implicated, includ-
ing some celebrated persons in France. In
consequence of these disclosures, Ballasleros
is said to have been arrested. ,

In Paris it is asserted, in the best informed
‘circles, that a -Treaty has already been con-

The Duke of Angoul\eme_,. it is stated, did
not enter Cadiz, because it would have re-

not leave Spain till December.

A Bayonne letter of Oct. 9th, says--No
troops now remain at Pampeluna, they hav-
ing all marched for Leridu,‘tlie siege of which
is to be vigorously pressed, notwithstanding
the events at Cadiz. It is said that the King
wvill publish a Declaration similar to that of
St. Ouen. A treaty is spoken of, by which
60,000 French troopsareto occupy Spain for

' four years ;. the English to hold Cadiz during
that period.’

A letter from Madrid, ofOct. 6th, says—‘A
very remarkable difference of opinion‘ exists
respecting thecotiseqtteiices that will be pro-
duced by the liberty ofthe King. At the first
news oftliis event, the general cry was ‘all is

' of Oct. 18, says——Capt. Parry at. this morn-
ing at the Admiralty. .He has not been able
toaccomplish the N._W.Passage. In 1891,
the expedition explored Repulse Bay, Sir
Tho.Roe’s VVelcome, Middletoii’s Frozen
Strait, and that iieigliborliood, and finding no
passage in _the Nortliward and Westward, win-~
tered in the Southern bay ofan island, called
W'intcr Island, in lat. 66, long. 88. In 1822!,
the expedition, guided and e'nco_uraged by the
information they had receivedduring the win-
ter, from a party of Esquimaux with whom
they had’ established at friendly intercourse,

 

pursued:tlieir attempt to the Nortliward, and‘

.exan'iined all inlets towards the West, till
they arrived at a strait which separates the

H — Northern CoastofAtnerica frotn what captain

. Parry considers to be clusters of islands, ex-
tending Northward towards the scene ofhis
former voyage. , .

_ The great object of ascertaining the north-
ern limit ofthe Continent being thus accom-
plislied Capt. Parry penetrated 9 degrees to
the \Vest4vard, with considerable expecta-
tion of final success ; but in a narrow part of

C

culiar manner which indicates that it isp'er-
petual, and not separated in any season, or un-
der any circwnstances. The expedition was
therefore obliged to winter in latitude 69, 20,
longitude 81, 30. In thesnmmer oftliis year
finding the ice still fixed to the shores, in such
a manner as precludedall hope ofany further
progress in the neighborhood in which he was.
Capt. Parry thought it advisable to give up
the attempt and return to England. The Ex-
pedition has lost by illncss,only Mr. Fyffe, the
Greenland Master, and 3 seamen, and 1 man
killed by an accident.

Proclamation of the King.—The papers re-
ceived by this arrivalcontaiu a Proclamation
issued by the King on the 30th Sept. at Ca-
diz, one day earlier than the one found on the
preceding page, issued at Port St. Mary. In
this address he says, ‘ Identified with the na-
tion, lhave run every hazard ofthe war to
the last, but necessity compels a termina_tion
to it :’ and he adds, ‘ My powerful voice alone-
can chase front the kingtloin vengeaiiceaiid
persecution !’ After mentioning his anxiety
to put_ an end to the horrors of war, -lie goes
on to state that ‘of his own free and sponta-
neous will,’ he will establish a government
‘which will cause the complete felicity of the
nation ;-—that he will carry, into effect a gen-
eral act of oblivioti for all that is past, without
any exception, in order to restore tiiiioii and
traiiqtiility among the Spanish people, whom
his paternal heart yearns over:—and that he
will ackuowleclge the obligations contracted
by the Constitutional governinciit. He also
promises that all the officers ofthe army and
navy attached to the Coiistitutional system
shall preserve their grades, einployinenls, sal-
arics, and honors; and concludes by assuring
the militia of Madrid, Seville and other pla-
ces, and all other persons who have taken re-
fuge in Cadiz, that they may return in peace
to their homes, or go toany part ofthe king-
dom which they may think proper, under the
fullest security ofnot being molested.

Our readers need only cotnpare this address
with the one which he published on the fol-
lowing day at Port St. Mary, and the one at
Zeres on the 4th Oct. when he found himself
securely seated by tlie_side of his ‘ flugust
Cousin,’ to form an estimate of the charac-
'ter of this burlesque of Iiitiizan nature.

From Brazil.-—Accoiiiits front Rio J aneiro
to the 6th of Sept. state, that an agent from
the king of Portugal had arrived in Brazil,
with despatches for his Royal Highness the
Prince Regent, but the Prince Regent would
hold no coinmitnication with him, as the agent
was not instructed to rccognisethe independ-
ence oftlie_Brazils and the Emperor’s title.--
The despatch vessel was allowed to take re-
freshnients, and ordered to depart. The Cor-.
tes were in session, and were debating on the
subject ofa declaration ofindependence. The
plan ofa Constitution had also been reported
resembling that of Great Britain. It estab-
lishes trial by jury, the liberty of the press, &
the toleration ofall religious.opinioiis. The
subject was soon to be tliscussed.--./‘V’. Y, Obs.

A letter from‘Cal|ao, of July 21st, states
that the Royal armyin its retreat front Lima

laged from the people of Lima by the Royal-

Advertiser, with much satisfactidni

‘ The United States appear to be contend-
ing for a strict ttnioii between tlieniselves and
the Republics of South America. _The preju-
dice in favor of the United States is strong in
Colombia. The delicacy ofthe British Gov-
ernment towards Spain, by indticitig them to

pendence, will be the means of strengthening
the power ofthe crafty Gov’t,ofN. America,
by a close union with her sister continent.’

Potomac and Ohio Canal.—'-A very nume-
rous and respectable body of delegates frotn
Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Ohio, and
Kent_ucky, .asseiiibled week before last at
Washington, to lEll£8>lT18aSlJl'e'3 for the forma-
tionqfa canal from the waters of the Potom-
ac tojthose oftlte Ohio. Commissioners were
appo'nted some time since, by the Legislatures
of Mltryland andVirginia,to report on the best
means of improving the navigation of the Po-
tomac, who suggested the practicability ‘of 0-
peuiiig a comniitnication between theAtlatitic
and western waters, by means of a canal, to
extend from Cumberland, on the Potomac, a-
cross the Alleghany moutitaiiis, to tlieMonon-
gahela, a branch ofthe Ohio.

It appears, says the N. Y. Obs. that a copi-
ous stream, called Deep Creek, one of the
head waters ofthe Monongahela, rises within
about 200 feet of the stitnniit of the Allegha-
iiy mountains. In the first part of its coitrse,
this creek runs .tlirougli‘a narrow pass in a
ridge, where, by erecting a dam 15 or 9.0 feet
high, and not tiiore than 40 or 50 yards long,
a pond may be formed 3 or 4 miles long and
half a mile broad. This reservoir, the Com-
missioners suppose, would furnish sufficient
water for a canal. In order to descend on the
east side-_oftlie mountains, however, it would
be necessary to carry the canal through the di-
viding ridge by a ttintiel two miles-long. The
cost of this tunnel and the locks would be ve-
ry great. _

If such _a canalwere completed,the Commis-
sioners anticipate, that Washington, or some
city near the eastern termination ofthe canal
would have decided advantages, as an empo-
riuni for the trade of the-western states,‘ over
New-York. . The advantages wo_uld consist
in the shorter distance; in the freedom from
the necessity of navigating lakes, which re-
quires vessels of a different construction from
those used on canals, and consequently de-
tnands achange of hands and the repeated
removal ofthe cargo from one vessel to anoth-
er; and finally, in the circuitistatice that the
Potomac canal would be free frotii ice ‘one
iliiionth longer than that from lake Erie to the
udson.

It will be seen by the following resolution,
which was passed by the convention, that the
question ofthe power of Congress, as to inter-
nal iniprovei/nents,will be brought directly be-
fore that body at iisenstting session:

‘ Resolved, That the G4)VL‘.1‘ll1ll8lli ofthe U.
States he earnestly solicited to obtain the
whole ofthis stint on loan, received in fotir an-
nual i_nstalments, upon the issue ofcertificzites
of stock, bearing an aiinital interest, not ex-
ceeding five per cent. and irrcdecmable for 30
years, and to guaraiitee the repayment thereof
on a ‘specific pledge ofthe public ‘lots in the
city of lVa.<.liington,of_tlie United States stock
in the canal, and_tlie public faith.’

The New-York Banks have added the
State_Baiik at Trenton to the nnmbt=.r oftliose

day their new plan went into operation they
receivedS.‘386,000 of cotttitiy paper. The Eve-
ning Post states, that arrangements have been
made to ‘inundate’ tliecity -with bills of the
Banks of Rhode Island, Massachusetts, and
Vermont, antl that large parcels ofihein are
already on their way. This is the legitimate
consequence of witlilioldiug the bills of the
other Banks from circulation.

It is thought there will he a sharp contest
for the Speaker’s Chair at the enstiing session
of Congress. ‘Mr. Barbour, of Virginia, the
last speaker, Mr. Webster of Boston, Mr. Tay-

are already named as candidates.

A large public meeting has recently been
held in Pliiladelphia, at which Gen. Jackson
was iinatiiuiously iioiniuated as a candidate

A letter from Holgiiiii, Cuba, oftlie19tli tilt.
gives the following account ofa rencontre with
Pirates on land. ' Capt. Driggs,~liere‘spoken
of, is peculiarly obnoxious to the Pirates of
that coast, having not lotig since, bravely de-
fetided himself against, and beat off a large
piratical schooner. v

‘ On. the uioriiing ofthe 9.8th- Sept. Captain
Benjamin Driggs, of the sclir. Abigail, of N.
York ; Capt. Thompson, of the sclir. Romeo,
of Cuba; Capt. Blye, ofthe sloop Caroline,
of Fairhaven ; Mr. Benj. Driggs, son of Capt.
D.; Mr. Joliu M’Kee, supercargo ofthe Car-
nliiie, and two Spanish gentlenien, left Port
Principe, for Neiivitas, a ride of 200 leagues.
About 1, the same da_v,when about 11 leagues
from Principe, Capts. Driggs and Bly, who
were about 500 yards ahead oftlieir compan-
ions, weie attacked by iliree robbers, who
rushed from the woods, with each a carbine
presented at their breasts. The Captains dis-
mounted and prepared tliemselves by taking
their pistols in hand, tipon which one of the
robbers discharged his piece at Capt. Driggs,
and wottndetl liiiiion the left side, though not
dangerous. Capt. Bly immediately shot the
man who fired at Driggs. Qapt. D. was soon
able to use his hand-, and shot the fellow who
presented his pistol at Bly. By this time the
others catiie up and surprised the third, who
was in the act of shooting Capt. D. He suc-
ceeded in getting into the woods, but was fir-
ed at and fell ; but as it was necessary for the
getitlemeii to make the best oftlieir way, they
left the field, leaving two dead, atid the third,
if not dead, in sttcli a situation as to prevent
his robhiiig for sotne time. The whole of this
scene, did not occupy more than 5 minutes.

P. S. Since writing. the above, there has
been an arrival-from Principe, and 1 have
found out that there were five robbers instead
of three, two having remained in the woods,
during the action, one of whom was wound-
ed in the woods, the other escaped. - The
wounded man was conveyed to Principe,
where he confessed the whole matter, and has
been committed to prison. .
