The U. S.'schr. Shark, Lt.Comd’t. Stevens,

.and the 4th inst. s Com. Rogers, Dr. Harris
and Dr. VVashing'to’n have returned in the_
Shark, after having been 192 (lays on the Isl-
‘and, and performed‘all_tlie duties connected
with their mission. The Commodore reach-
_ed Washington on Tuesday. Not a man was
taken. sickzfrom the ‘period of her leaving N.
York to the time of her return to Norfolk.
The Shark arrived at Tliompsonls Island
-~ on the 23d Oct. and sailed thence for Havana
oiithe 3d inst.; at the latter date, all the offi-
cers and men remaining on the island, were
in good liealth,‘ with the exception of some
cases of the iiiildest intermittent, unattended
Willi the least danger. All who were more
seriously indisposed, had, by the advice ofthe
' surgeons-, been sent to Norfolk, with proper
medical aid, before the Spark left thelslaiid.
_, Surgeon T. lVilliamson, and Midshipman
Randolph, with 25 convalescent seamen, took
passage in the _schr. Hero, wbicli sailed on
‘the 28th ult. Surgeon R. K. Hoffinan, and
.34 couvalescents, sailed on_ the 2d inst. in the
brig Harmony, both bound to Norfolk.
, Lt. L. Rosseau, was. left in comriiand at
Tliompson’s Island. The only vessel‘ of the
squadron left. at the Island wastlie sc‘lir.(z'rcy-
hound, Lt. Com.'Kearncy. We are liappy to
- add,-that the ofiic-_ei's and crews ofthe squad-
ron were all in good health.
. vThe schr. Ferret, Lt. Com. S. Duncan, ar-
. rived at the Island tst inst. and sailed again
on the 4th, in company with the Shark for
Havana. .Lt. McIntosh who went out ]stLt._
of the Shark, has lieeii ordered to the Com-
mand ofthe schr. Terrier.‘
-. The brig Venus, Kelly, arrived at the Isl-
_ and 27th ult. in 8 days from Savaniiab bound
.to,New-Orleans with all on board sick. Ev-
ery necessary medical, attention was immedi-
ately extended to them, and when the Shark
sailed they were all in a. fair way of recover-
ii_ig—except. the mate who died on thelst inst.
The bfit; was to sail again in two days for
New-Orleans. ‘
The'Ferret, which sailed in company with
the Shark, from Tbompsou’s Island, the Por-
poise, Wild Cat, and Jackall, were left at Ha-
vana 4th inst. to sail next day on acruize.
Tlie U. S. brig Spark, was cruising on the
south side of Cuba.
On the °.’5th ult. previousto his leaving the
Island, the Com.wrote to the See’ry oftlieNa-
vy as follows: ‘ Out of about 140 persons on
the Isla_nd, officers, seamen and marines, 59
are sick, principally with Intermittent Fevers,
only one case out of the whole, assuming, at
this time, a malignant type ; they are, liowe-
ver, all in a very low state, and I have engag-
ed_ two vessels, which I found here by accident,
to transport them to Norfolk at.SlO per head;
',the three. surgeons who came with me, and
surgeon Williamson, recommending their re-
moval to a Northern climate, as absolutely ne-
cessary to the, restoration of their health.—-
Tlie men still remaining, after the sick are
sent away, will besuflicient for all the present
exigencies of the service; and I have no rea-
son to think that any further evil coiisequen-
ces are to be apprehended, as such cases of
fever as have occurred within the last twenty
days, has" assumed a much milder type than
previous to that date. Iliave just returned
from visiting all the sick at both Hospitals.
Itpappears they had talt-~u up an impression
that they could not recover in this climate,
and’, on being told my intention to send them
' home, every countenance appeared to beam
with joy. Most of those \vlio_have had yellow
fever liaverelapsed into iiiterniitteiits.
‘ W'ith the two vessels in which I send the
sick, I shall send Doctors VVilliamson and
1 Hoflinan, leaving Surgeons Mates Conway,
Van Brunt, and Boyce, who will be quite suf-
fic_ieiit for anyexigeiices likely to occur. I
would, however, reconniicnil your scntliiig out
a Surgeon and one or two Mates, as soon as
convenient to relieve those gentlemen.’
Electors of Pitesizl::1i£.—l‘\’c learn’ that a
proposition will be made to the Legislature
of Virgiiiiaat the ensuing session to alter the
mode ofclioosing electors for Prcsidcut,whicli
seems to be simple in its operation, and prom-
ises to be efiicacious in its efiects. It is pro-
posed to let each congressional district tliro"-
out the union make choice of one elector at a
fixed period, say one year priorto the election
of President, and as the nunibcr ofelcctors in
each state corresponds with the number ofrep-
rescntatives i'n Congress, there will be no dif-
ficulty in electing one person as an elector for
President at the time, and place when the
member of Congress is to be ballotcd for. It
is further contemplated that the Legislature of
each state shall, by ballot, niake choice oftwo
electors to’ correspond with the choice ofSen—.
ators; thus for example, the people" ofNew-
York will elect in their several congressional
disti'icts, thirty-four members ofCongress,and
thirty-four electors for President, the Legis-
lature selecting the other two.
We are not prepared at this time to go into
an aiialysis oftliis proposition, and examine
all its bear’.u'_rs national, atid political.
It may llt‘. called an election for electors by
districts, a plan which is by no tiieans approv-
ed ofin this state ; but there is this difference
to be observed, that the election by the uiode
proposed is to prevail tliroughout the iiniou,
and'notin one particular state; it follows that
whatever may be the political complexion the
same character will prevail as to electors for
President,whicli will at once be brought home
to the people, and managed in their districts,
without agitating tliegstate, while the Legis-
latures tliroiiglioiit the imion having the choice
of.l8 electors will always exercise a proper
state of influence over the whole electoral col-
lege. Thereare minor points conte'mpl:i‘t'ed
in this project, such as the time, mode, and
placeof meeting: the ultimate decision by
Congress, &.*.c. 82c. at all. events we should be
pleased to see it discussed, and any measure
atlifpted, or improvenient authorised which
may give permanency, and tranquility to the
union in tlieselectioii of fu ture Presidents.—
The importance and details of this new plan,
are such as will render it difficult to -carry it
into execution until after the next President-
ial -'election.—.N'alt',om‘zl Advocate.
A grand musical festival was held lately at

inay be contributed towardsthe reliefofthe

there ever was a contest, in which the highest
and holiest feelings ofour nature might with-
out let or scriiple be indulged, it is surely that
in which we now see the Greeks engaged.-
Aiitl let no one hold back from the apprehen-
sion that all tliatvcan be thus. raised, will be of
little value. Time wzis,wlien our great forefa-

tnay be to this cause, the moral ijffecl of the
spontaneous ofl'ei'ii_i_gs ofthe freemeu'ofAmer-
ica to those whose fathers were as free, and
whose descendants deserve to be not less so,
will be yet ofincalculalily more value. ’

-cept the captain, and then threatened him
with immediate death iflie did not tell wlierc
the money was. He told them there was
none on board except a small sum in his desk
to pay his port charges at Turks Island. They
broke open the desk and took all they could
find, and after searc'riin'g till they were satis-
fied there was no more, they made of, say-
ing they must hurry, as they had two more
American schrs. to board that night, which

Georgia li:is resulted in the election of George
M. Troop, Esq. the Crawford candidate, bya
majority of four votes over Matthew Talbot
