you to such a sense ofyour perilous situation,

‘to that Be-ing.who alone ca_n snatch you from

It appears that, some time since, you woo?-'l

the altar, and there, in the presence of_tliatBe-

ynu interclianged with her the vows of perpet-
ual love and fidelity. She kept her vow—_ti-
midst the severest trials she did not forget it.
The marks of your brutal violence disclosed
.mu,. C,.,,,.i_V to the world, before her own lips
-whispered it to her nearest friend. When her
wounds awakened the sympzithies of the only
male connexion she had on eartli—and forced
him to step forwartl in her defence-—she inter-
ceded in your behalf, quelled the rage of her
defender, palliated the offence of her husband,
forgave him, and '.vi‘.h manifestations ofuna.-

“With each lrevoiving month your cruelties

ed, so often were '.'::ey forgiven." At length
your conduct {lS.‘.lllllt'iCl a more alarming char-
acter, and she foresaw 136 l9“ l““'PU53 You
have now executed. She appealed to the
. laws ofher country to avert the ruin which
menacetl ht-1'-—l)ul‘., ere she. could experience
' their etficacy, one laind word from you dissi-

ved onlyito einbolden you in iiiiqtiity. Her
friends expostnlated with _vou——slie besought
you: and her mother, trembling under. the.
weight of years, implored you to deal more
kindly with her daugliter. That mother ad-
dressed herself to your feelings in language
that Ishould have thought even a demon could
not.-esist. When she repeated it here, the
sternest heart in this vast multitude could not
withhold from her the tribtite ofa tear. Be-
. hold, said she, I am a weak and aged woman—
I can neither protect nor defend my'child——
. her father is dead—if you discard her,where is
she to seek protection ? This eloquent appeal
. could iiotfind its way to your heart.
Your inhuman treatment continued, and
was borne by your companion with uuexa_rii-
pled fortitude for more than 5 years; during
which period she presented you four children.
It was the ninth day ofthe age of the young-
. est, and when its mother had not yet left the
rooui of her confinement, you selected to ex-
ecute your hellish purpose. Then, when she
clasped to her bosom her helpless innocent,
with this instrunieiit, (a knife) still covered
- withrher blood, you commenced the work of
' death. Nay, her life was not sufficient to ap-
pease your vengeauce—her mangled corpse
‘gave unequivocal proofs that many of her
wounds could have been only inflicted to try
the strength of her nerves. The keen edge
of the knife made her forget her infant and
her weakness ; she fled ; you pursued her and
dealt to her a blow that arreste.d her feeble
flight; yoti then dropped the knife,went to
your trunk, and drew from it this iiistriiiiient
of keener edge (a razor,) and with it- you
severed her head from her body. For all
this what is your defence! A plea that would
deprive her of all that she had left behind her
-——her r eputation. Happily for her memory,
this lies beyond the reach ofyour vengeance.
Your efforts to tarnish it have only given to it
additional lustre. lfthere was one in the vast
assembly who witnessed your trial, that har-
bored fdr a moment a suspicion dishonorable
to her, his conscience now rebukes him for
his cruelties. After five months’ preparation;
" after having all her nearest friends before you;
after producing the inmates of your family,
you have not been able to extort from one a
single word that could alarfn svenjeaioriiy it-
self. All attest that she was constant, artless,
meek, submissive and kind. Oh, she would
have been a prize to any man but you ; had
you permitted her to live,~she would have been
ablessing to your ‘children. Poor, helpless
orphans, what is now to be their destiny ?—
Who is left to watch over their dawning in-
telleci, to chasten their morals, to lead them
to virtue’s shrine? Father of Mercy I be thou
their protector, guardian, and friend. Spirit
of their murdered mother! hover over and
direct them through the dangerous and devi-
ous windings oflife.
Description of the Prcsident’s Levee on New-
Years’ Dag/—by the Editor of the JV‘. York
Statesman, now at Washington.
After some introductory reinarks,and com-
pliments to the editors of the Patriot, Mr.Car—
ter adds: These things being premised, you
may suppose two members of Congress and
inyselfin a hack working traverse for halfan
hour through a throng of carriages, in reach
ing the door ofthe President's House from the
street, a distance ofa hundred yards. On en-
tering the large hall in front of the mansion,
we fotiiid it already filled with visitants, who
were busy in divesting themselves of outside
garments,aiid in preparing to make their bow.
In or‘! corner ofthe hall, a large and excel-
lent band of music was stationed ; and at in-
tervals, during the visit, inspiring national
airs, rang through the reinotest apartments of
the mansion, and contributed much to the so-
cial enjoyinent of the occasion.
The spacious and elegant suite of rooms, a
description of which was given in my letters
last winter, were crowded to overflowing.-
Some of the residents at Washington, who
have been in the habit of attending these le-
vees annually, inform me that on no former
occasion ofthis kind have they known so nu-
iiierous an assembly of ladies and gentlemen,
notwitlistandiug the incleinency ofthe weath-
er. Had the day been plezisant, hundreds of
others would probably have attended. Every
carrizige and hack in the city were put in re-
quisition; and many were obliged to remain
at home for the want of a conveyance. All
appeared anxious to pay their respects to.the
chief niagistrate of the nation; to welcome
his safe arrival at the goal of another year;
and to tender their warui wishes for his future
health and prosperity. He never perhaps
stood higher in the public estimation, than at
the present niouicnt. The prompt and deci-
ded tone of his message has commanded uni-
versal i'espect.8t. added much to his popularity.
_ The President took his station in the rottin-
da,or principal drawing-room,wheuce he was
consttintly receiving the congratulations of his
friends, and the coiiipliuients of the season,
for upwards of two hours. A great number
of strangers, of course, took this opportunity
of being introduced. He appeared to be in
excellent health and spirits, and received his
visitants to the number of not less than athou-
sand, with much courtesy and cordiality. He
is now at an advanced age ; but titiie has not
yet made any serious inroads upon his consti-
tution, or impaired the faculties of his mind.
To every appearance he may survive his exit
from office many years, and add another to
the number of Ex-Presidents, who, after fill-
ing the highest stations in the gift of any peo-
ple, have mingled again in the great mass of
the community, as private citizens, and in the
bosom of retirement and in the quiet of do-
mestic life, still live to witness the prosperity
_of their country. The President yet retains
the revolutionary costume, and much of the
dignified simplicity of revoltitionary manners.
Mrs. Monroe has for some tiuie been seri-
ously indisposed, and did not appear. In
her absence, Mrs. Hay, her daughter, filled
the station with great dignity and elegance of
manners. Some of our female readers may
have a curiosity to know the dress of this lady
and the costume ofthe visitants, and although
I do not possess halfthat gallantry,iniputed to
me by the correspondent of the Advocate—
whose impudence shall hereafter receive that
chastisenient which it merits, yet I will here
add a few particulars furnislied by the polite-
nes ofa distinguished friend.
‘ Mrs. Hay’s dress was an imperial piirple,
stainpt or embossed, with a frillof white lace
round the bosom, and furbelow neatly array-
ed _in such a manner, as to correspond and
produce a proper finish. Asinall diadem comb
ornamented her fine brown hair, simply put
up a la chenoize. Her neck-lace was ofaqua
mairire, set in gold, and her ear-rings corres-
ponded. Many of the ladies were dressed
with great elegance, some in pink, blue, and
red ; others in orange, fawn-color, dun, and
white. Feathers of’ every description, from
the plume of the ostrich, to that ofthe bird of
paradise, ornamented the heads of the fash-
iouables. Indeed all kinds of head dresses
were seen, from the plain quaker, bonnet, to
ornaments the inostspleudid and fanciful.
‘ The gentlemen were less splendid in their
dresses than the ladies. Costumes of all the
civilized world were to be seen. The Russian
Legation were in blue, embroidered with sil-
ver ; the French, in dark blue, embroidered
with gold, much flowered, assuming rather
the regime than the moclune ; the British ap-
peared also in blue, ornamented with gold, a
very neat dress, not too gaudy, but quite ap-
propriate; the Colombian and Mexican, in a
remarkably neat citizen’s full dress, without
any kind oforiiament, manifesting much taste
and elegant simplicity. American military
and naval oflicers, many of whom were pre-
sent, appeared in the plain uniform ofthe U.
States, neat, without trappings ofa georgeous
character, suited to our republican institutions,
and the simplicity ofour manners. They did
not lose anything by comparison with tlie_rep-
resentatives ofthe crowned heads ofEurope.
‘In the midst ofthe iiiultitude, the celebra-
ted General Devereux, an Irish gentleman in
the service of Colombia, and who has lately
been appointed an ambassador to some ofthe
European powers, attracted a large share of
attention. His figure and dress were coni-
manding—He has a fine open coiiiitenance,
exhibiting all those traits which chara cterizc
his coiintryuien. His uniform was unique,be-
ing of green and gold, richly embroidered
treated with tnuchcordiality by some of our
citizens and public officers.’ » __ A
So much for the contribution of inyfrieiid.
It would be an idle task to attempt,..to_ e,ti‘u‘iii'é-
concourse, Sufiice it to say,'tlia“t‘-the Secre-
taries of State, of ‘War, and the Navy, theAt-
torncy General and the Post-Master General,
a
l
soiiiewhat after the fashion of the Austrian-
generals. He was received with kindness, and_
I shall complete the sketch with_a fapid,pen..
rate lialfof those who coi'ii‘posed»_;th,i’s'iniimense‘
jtlre ‘presiding officers and ‘most or. the mem-
bers of both Houses of Congress, of civil, na-
val, and military officersiof the government,a
very large proportion ofthe citizens of_'_ Wash-
ington and Georgetown and their families, to-
gether with a great number of strangers from
all parts of the country and the world were
here‘ assembled. The ladies were collected"
into groups in the different rooms, when they
received the congratulations of their friends.
They appeared to great advantage, presenting
a fine display of beauty, taste and fashion.----
Auiong the gentlemen, the four candidates
for the Presidency of course attracted an im-
usual share of attention. Each of them had
a circle constantly around him, not of parti-
sans, (for politics -are never permitted to iii-
trudeinto social circles at Washington) but of
those who were anxious on this occasion to
pay their" respects to gentlemen ofdistinguish-
ed talents and holding elevated stations. I
regret to add that the Secretary of the Treas-
ury still continues seriously indisposed, and is
unable to leave his room. He was of course
deprived of the pleasure of mingling with llls
fellow-citizens on this joyous occasion, and of
receiving the congratulations of his friends.
At about two o’clock, P. M. the company
began to retire, the ladies and gentlemen
proinenaded the extensive hall to the music of
the band, while in waiting for their carriages
at the door. Before three o’clock the rooms
were clear, and the visitants had departed,
satisfied, I trust, with the happy comineiice-
uieiit of a new year, and with the socialaiid
festive pleasures of the nioruiiiv.
In the evening I attended a splendid ball at
the spacious hall belonging to Messrs. Caru-
si’s. About three hundred ladies and gentle-
men were present, most of whom were on the
floor at the same time.
THE TURKS.——We caution all those pat-
rfotic gentlemen whose nerves are too weak to
iiutie their strong purse-strings in aid of the
Greeks, not to read the following deniniciation
of that huge-wisltered fellow, the Grand Stil-
tan. Though one by the olden time, we are
sure his mantle has fallen upon his present
successor, so let the trembling bipeds that
stand in awe of him and read this, while they
tliiuk of the consequences resulting from our
aid to the Greeks, look well to their cluttering
teeth and kiiuckle-bones.— Conn. Herald.
The following challenge was sent from So-
lyiiian the Great, Emperor of the Turks, to
Maximilian II. Emperor of Germany :
“ By connivance of the Great Got) in
Heaven, we Solyman, God on earth, Great
and Sublime Emperor of all the \Vorld,Lord,
Master, and Disposer of all the followers of
CHRIST, we send and declare unto thee, Max-
iinilian, indignation, misfortune, and infideli-
ty to thee and thy Princes, subjects and ad-
herents. Vlle moreover give thee to know,
that we, by the sufi'erance ofthe Great GOD,
styled on eatth the Great and PerpetualGod,
Most Mighty Emperor Soldan of Babylon,
Lord of Armenia, the Mightiest in Persepo-
lis and Numidia, the greatest auxiliary ofG0i),
Prince in Barbary, even unto the Mountains
of Achaia, King ofKings, from the Meridian
to the Poles, from the rising of the sun to the
setting thereof, the first and chief-placed in
the Paradise of Mahoniet, the scourge of
Christendoiii and Christians, keeper and de-
fender ofthe sepulclire ofthy G01) crucified,
the only victorious and triumphant Lord of
the VVorld, and of all Circuits and Provinces
thereof; thou, Maximilian, who stylest thy-
self King ofour Kingdom of Hungary, we
will visit thee for that cause, and make thee
acquainted with our strength ofthirteen king-
doins, collected in one hundred thousand
horse and foot prepared for war, with all the
power ofTurkisli munition, such as those. nor
noiie of thy servants have seen, heard, or had
knowledge of; and this even before thy chief
city, Vienna. We, Solyinan, God oti earth,
in defiance ofthee, thine adherents and abet-
tors, do, with our war-like strength, pronounce
au(l'intend thine and their utter destruction
and depopulation, by every possible means we
candevise; and this we signify unto thee, to
the end that thou and thy uiiserable people
may prepare yourselves for ruin or death ;
with us it is determined, by the hands of our
Janizaries, to ravage and spoil thee, and all
thy German kingdoni} and principalities-—,
This misery we have euounced against thee
and thy adherents; have thou no doubt we
will come. Dated in the year of our‘ reign‘
forty-seven, in the city ofCoustantinople,from
which we did expel thy predecessors,- their
wives, children, and friends, and made them
miserable slaves and captives.”
Character of the Turlr3.—The following
sketch of the character of the Turks, given by
the Rev. Mr. Fisk, one of the Missionaries to
the Holy Land, will be read with interest.
Tliiiilt of a government in which every of-
fice is sold to the highest bidder, and in which
21 criminal may almost uniformly obtain his
freedom by the payment ofmoney ; think of
schools,in most of which the only thing taught
is to proiiotiiice the words ofa language which
neither pupils nor teacher unt:'erstand ; think
of places of public worship, in which nearly
all the exercises are performed in an unknown
tongue; think of one half of the females in
the country prohibited from going out willi-
out concealing their faces, while both the
laws and the religion ofthe country allow po-
lygamy and concubinage; think of a country
in which scarce one woman in a hundred can
read, and where perhaps not lialfthe men are
more fortunate ; think of a country in which
the governor has liberty to bchead seven men
a day without‘ assigning any reason whatever
for so doing; where a criminal is condemned
witliout_jury, and I had almost said without
trial or witnesses ; and after being condemn-
ed, is iiiiinediately beheaded, strangled, or
hu_ng at the first convenient place in the street,
and left hanging two or three days; think of
.a country in which, in case of public disturb-
ance, one halfof the community can i_ni.irder
whomsoever they please ofthe other halfwith

such a country or rather much worsetlian e-
ven this description,‘ is Turkey.
I Title following is an extract from the address l A Society was in'stitute.d at Hartford on the
ofa committee appointed in a town inHart-
. _ ford county to solicit subscriptions in aid of
the Greeks from the inhabitants. It incri-
tions some interesting facts.
“ The Greeks inh'abit'tlie southern part of
the Empire of ‘Turkey, the finest ‘country in
Europe. -.Tlieir territory, exclusive of nume-
rous ‘islands, contains about 50,000 square
miles, and from four to five millions ofinhab-
itants. They are the descendants of the an-
cient Greeks, the most remarkable people of’
antiquity, the inventors of the arts, the au-
thors of civilization, the first people who un-
derstood the principles of civil liberty, and es-
tablished the government ofRepublics. They
continued to be an illustrious and prosperous
people, till they were conquered and enslaved
by the ferocious Turks, under the banners of
Mahomet, in the year ofour Lord 1452.
The Greeks were converted to Christiani-
ty by the labors of the Apostles. Most ofthe
Churches mentioned in the New Testament,
belonged to the Greeks, and in their language
was that part ofthe sacred volume originally
written. They are still a Christian people.
By theirMahoinetan masters, they are per-
secuted for their religion, bated for their an-
cient renown, and have been incessantly op-
pressed with an unrelenting bondage. They
are now making a united and maguaniinous
effort for national independence, fo_r civil lib-
erty,and for the religion of the Gospel.
vine Providence has sustained them, through
3 campaigns, to the admiration ofthe world.
They have called upon this country for sym-
pathy and assistance. They are hoping to es-
tablish civil institutions, similar to ours. Long
plundered and enslaved,they are poor, and pe-
cuniary assistance would afford them great re-
lief. Collections are now making in their be-
half, extensively, in our country.
MANUFACTURERS’ MEMORIAL.—
On the 1st inst. a meeting ofthe friends of A-
inerican Manufactures was held at the State
House in Hartford, and a memorial to Con-
gress, praying for their protection, presented
and adopted. The ineniorial first sets forth
the distressing condition of many who have
embarked their all in manufacturing establish-
ments; and then asks, ifthehand of govern-
uient cannot be extended for their relief;ad-
ding, ‘it is a fact that the hopes of the iiiaiiu-
f'-.icturer must perish unless soiuethiiig effect-
ual is done. ‘ How humiliating the reflection
———what a stigma on National character, that
in war we must smuggle from our enemicsthe
comforts and necessaries of life !—The last
war has proved the ivealiness of our resources
—for we could not supply a few blankets for
the Indians. It was then that a patriotic ar-
dour burst forth, and honesty and good faith
were pledged, to cherish a benevolent inten-
tion to furnish supplies at honie.——’I‘hen it was
that capitalists sought out the best location for
iVlanufacturing establishments, and in the love
of country, laid the foundation of their future
coinfortor rtiin. Soon after Con -'ress veiitur- ‘
7
ed,again:t the many predictions ofsome meni-
bers, to grant a heavy duty on coarse cottons
-—an experiment which intist satisfy the states-
man of the policy ofincreasiug the Tariff on
other articles.’
It proceeds to show that Manufacturers ask
no more of Government than other classes of
citizens actually and constantly receive.
Millions are expended to support a navy for
the protection of the property of the merchant
—and millions more in sending Ambassa-
dors, Consuls and Agents to Foreign Courts
to protect their rights. The iiiantifactures of
other nations are prosperous because they are
protected. ‘ But when the Manufacturer here
asks for assistance, the answer is “No.
Our revenue will be affected ; the wheels of
government must stop if duties on imports are
diminished !” And the Southern Planter says
“No.——Why should I be taxed, or why should
one portion of the country be compelled to
btiild up another?” The L\'lanufacturer is di-
rected to look for consolation to the " let us
alone policy,” and turned ofl" with the chill-
lug reflection, that, although all is hazarded,
he finds no relief. But will an increase of
the Tarif’f injure the Southern planter? He
is now protected by a duty on tobacco and su-
gar from 50 to 100 per cent; while the Mati-
ufacturer of the Northern and Middle States
is left to contend with every disadvantage 2--
Cotton is now the great remittance to liqui-
date the enormous debt due from the citizens
of the United States to GrcatBritain. Btit
how soon will England supply her manufac-
tures of wool and cotton frotii her own colo-
iiies—-tlie West and East Indies? How soon
will the Island of Jainaica change the culture
of cane, at present so uiiproductive, to the ciil-
ture of cotton ?—Tlie time may not be far dis-
tant. In that event,where is the planter to find
his market? Not in the republics of South
Aiiierica--they have no nianufactures. Should
however, the manufactures of the Middle and
Northern States be extended by suitable eti-
couragement,how easily would the planter find
a sure niarket,and the coaster employ in trans-
porting nianufacttired cottons to the new and
important ports ofthe South. There is, how-
ever,soine apology for former opposition from
the South, to high duties to aid the Manufac-
turer of the North ; for it must be admitted,
that niitil lately, there was a moral inability to
supply the demands for cloths by domestic
manufacture. A high duty then would have
enhanced the price of bagging and clothing
for the slaves. But that time is past. Your
ineinorialists do not suppose their interest a-
lone is to be prouioted by a revision and in-
crease of the tariff. The languishing pros-
pects of the agriculturist, rests upon the filial
decision of this question. Their graneries are
fulr, domestic markets supplied, and foreign
markets glutted. The fainter, who with the
productions of his farm, pays the mecliatiic
for the labor of his shop, affords a familiar ex-
ample of the benefits of a domestic niarltet.
It is estimated, that in 1820, the inaiiufacto-
ries in Oneida Co. N. Y. consumed 8| l0,000
of Agricultural productions ; and that more
than $40,000 worth of Flour, and 200,000
bushels of Com have been imported into
Providence during the last year, and consum-
ed principally, hy those interested in nianu-
factorics; whereas, a market is not afforded
for one pound ofour flour,wool, flax, or hemp
by the British,wlio sell us inaiiufactures to the
amount of 340,000,000 annually.
The growers of these articles could not be
injured by an increase ofduty on imports, btit
benefitted,since our limiie inanufactories con-
sume more ofour bread stuff, than the whole
continent of Europe, and we might adtl, that
ofEast Indies. Why thenshotild not nianufac;
tures be encouraged by a higher tariff ?
Di-‘
lst inst. under the name of the “ btihhecticut
Association for the promotion of Manufac-
tures, Mechanic Arts, and National Industry.”
The An'uual—ineetings are to, be holden i,nMay,
alternately at New-Haven and Hartford. The‘
officers are to consist ofa President, eight V.
Presidents,~(one for each county,) one Secre-
tary, and one Treasurer‘. Every member
must pay 50 cents aniinally.
The Treasury Estimates were on Friday
sent in to Congress, being a week earlier than
they were sent in the last year. The writers
of letters to distant places, therefore, can no‘
longer represent Mr. Crawforrl’s recovery as
hopeless. Their case is hopeless if their cal-
culations ofsuccess are founded on so deplor-
able a contingency. We cannot even flatter
them with the hope of his losing both his eyes,
as is said to have been predicted abroad, or e-
ven one of them. He is gradually and cer-
tainly. lll0Ugl1 yet not rapidly, regaining his
health.——.N'at. Intel.

The present nutnher of prisoners is 60. There
