LATE II VMOM KUKOPK.
An arrival at loston ml one
at New York, brings Kurnpean
accounts as lute as the 14lh oi Au
gnst. Accounts frrtni Madrid state
that it had been resolved in a
council of Ministers that the Gov
ernment should publicly dispose
of nine hundred convents, the
proceeds to be applied to the re
demption of the debt, without in
terest. it is said the assassin Fiescbi,
is the very same person recently
employed by the Parisian police,
to watch the movements ot the
Duchess of Berri.
The woman, Petit, lived
with Fieschi, ha 5 been arrested
and also other accomplices. It is
supposed she can give the most
valuable information, as she pass
ed the night of the 27th with him,
but there are no proofs of an ex
tended conspiracy. The assassin
himself is found to be not one of
those moody and desperate spirits
which bail been conjectured, but
on the contrary hail taken every
possible precaution to escape and
avoid detection. Not a single
scrap of paper was found in his
trunk. He has acknowledged
a little time before the King ar-
ficed by the infuriated animal,
who rushed upon him, but the
bull's attention was distracted to
so many points that he escaped
unhurt. At length the bull was
despatched, and was bound .with'.
the rope which had been cut at
the commencement. .Many of the
orderlv spectators had retired,
and now the rioters were permitted
to proceed in their w ork of des
truction. The principal seats
were soon in pices, and property
to the value of upwards of 7000
dollars was wantonly destroyed.
The Lull, now in possession of the
populace, was dragged in triumph
through the stieets amid the
shouts of assembled thousands.
It was soon obvious that there was
some ulterior plan in contempla
tion, of the certainty of w hich wc
were soon convinced.
The cries of (A!s Convents, a
S:in Francesch, als earmelites!'
'To the Convents, to St. Francis,'
to the Carmelites! were soon
heard; as also 'Death to the friars!1
and in less than halt an hour, as 1
proceeded with the multitude, 1
observed that they had set fire to
one of the gates of the convent of
St. Francis amidst shouts of 'Viva
1 1 Libertnd: murcan!' 'Long live
Liberty: kill them' (the friars.)

Barcelona no other event of
consequence has occurred in
Spain.
July 29. Barcelona has been,
during the 25th and part of tiie
2Gthi:ist. the theatre of grcvious
disasters. On Saturday last the
populace at the Plaza-de Toros,
at a bull fight, commenced early
to evince symptoms of disorder.
It so happened that the two first
bulls were of a most pacific dispo
sition, and consequently afforded
very little diversion. It was soon
remarked that they were of a
different breed to that announced
in the handbills, and this circum
stance was noted with marked
disapprobation. By law it is
prohibited to throw any thing into
duced to allies. Amidst the con
fusion incidental to the circum
stances, and the many temptations
to robbery nothing could exceed
the disinterestedness of the
wretches employed in this horri
ble work of destruction. No
money or valuables of any des
cription was appropriated by the
incendiaries. Sacred vessels of
gold and silver, and various other
costly articles as soon as found
were thrown into the fire, and one
individual was nigh belaboured to
death for baving secreted a silk
pocket handkerchief.
The most horrible part of my
narrative is ytt to be related.
The populace was not content
with the destruction of property.
The wretches thirsted for human

proceedings of the taureadores i obtained it. Nearly four-score

ces. Chairs, benches, and parts
of the balustrades were now hurl
ed from all parts into the plaza.
The Governor immediately ap
peared and endeavoured to soothe
the assembled multitude, but in
vain; the soldiers who accompa
nied him were ordered to withdraw
by the people and at once obeyed.
Meanwhile the plaza was filled
by ihe multitude, who set upon
the unfortunate bull in every di
rection. By the w ay, the "Gov
ernor was very near being sacri-
I 1 1. e
military torce. Une poor
wretch, the first victim, appealed
to me and another person in whose
company I was, for protection,
and we used all our endeavours in
his behalf, but in vain. We suc
ceeded in having ,im carried to
the theatre, where there was a
guard of forty volunteers, but they
would not protect him. He re
ceived soon afterwards more than
twenty wounds, and soon ceased
to exist. The night of Saturday
was truly dreadful- six convents
on fire at the same time, the mili
tary parading the streets, but per
fectly passive, and with orders not
to fii cou the populace; the inmates
of ihe house adjoining the con
vents rushing out ami removing
their valuables; the villanous as
sassins working the bloody deeds,
the deafening vivas, as an unhap
py victim fell into the fire, or
perished by the knife, all formed
a scene w hich battles description.
There are nearly 300 frairs in
the castle of Moujuck, and as ma
ny more Fn the citadel and Atara
zana barracks. The greater part
of the Fanciscan friars made their
escape through a sewer which led
from the convent to .the sea, and
were received by the military sta
tioned at the barracks which 1
have just mentioned. The town
is now somewhat tranquil, but will
not, 1 fear, long continue so, as
the garrison is verv weak.
General hlauder arrived yes
terday evening, has again left
Barcelona with all his family.
Canada.-h will be seen from the
following remarks of the Montreal
Vindicator, that already are the
Canadians talking of separation
from England, and an union w ilh
the United Stales:
' 'Since ihe Tory newspapers dis
cuss, and Tory coleries talk so
freely of separation from England,
and connection with the United
Slates, the Vindicator may notice
the subject without being charged
with sedition.
'Wc have alrea'dy said that a
foreign yoke, although lined with
velvet, sits not easy on the necks
of native born Americans, and
that European bondage will be
endured in America no longer
linn it is convenient. We now
add that the Western hemisphere
is too far advanced in civilization,
wealth, and population, to owe
obedience to the dictates " of the
antiquated Eastern world. Our
spirits are roused at the thought,
and we experience a feeling of de
basement in reflecting thai we are
the last anion-: the inhabitants of
ibis continent, to declare our ca
pability of governing ourselves,
disenthralled from the clumsy op
erations of foreign direction.
The lime worn principles of an
cient kingdoms correspond not
with the 'fresh, the fair, the ever
free? principles, that govern and
control men in this bright and
beautiful w orld of ihe West. E
ven the emigrant of yesterday
finds the vallies of the West as
green, the bills as wild, and the
skies as bright as those that adorn
ed his native land. An affection
for Europe has in a great measure
ceased to be natural feeling. Why
indeed should the children of A
merica regard the soil or the
flags of Europe with anymore
affection ihat the children of Eu
rope regard ihe soil of ihe eastern
most parts of Asia. The march
of the world is Westward.
'We speak of this subject not as
one connected with the present
politic:, of the day but as an event
that appears approaching iu the
course of human affairs.'
Come, "stand up to the rack, fod-1
der, or no fodder," as your menu
Davy Crockett would say, and
let usjoin isue on the question,
"Is Mr. Petiigrew "a Jackson man,
or an anti-Jackson man?" W e un
hesitatingly affirm that he repeat
edly declared himself during the
canvass, to be "a Jackson man."
No marucucres take the other
part of the question, if ycu please,
but treat it fairly.
As to the "challenge" to men
tion .the members of the above
Convention, we think it perfectly
ridiculous the Editors of the
Whig say it was held in Wash
ington and have begged pardon
for staling that we were a-member
of it, yet they challenge us to
mention the members surely,
the fumes of the great Whig feast,
cannot yet have entirely evaporated.
With regard to the important
matter whether we "peddle"
books, or the Whig Editors songs,
we think the public would not
view it either "contemptible" in us
to deliver books to subscribers,
nor for them to sell songs, or even
to sing them through the streets,
as the ballad singers of old at
any rate, we have no objection to
iheir trying the experiment.
We underhand that no lit
tie excitement and" speculation
h i been produced, in the vicinity
of Mr. Dcmsey Bryan's in this
county, in consequence of its be
ing di-ci.vered (hat several graves
on bis plantation, (formerly called
ihe Philips' plantation,) had been
violated. The graves were those
of Mr. West, an Aged lady,
Polly Parmenter aged about 12
years, and John Philips aged a
bout 22 the two former had been
buried about ten year, the latter
about six years. The remains of
John Philips bad been entirely
removed, excepting two small
bones supposed to be of the fin
gers, some of bis hair, part of the
j winding sheet, and one of the
stockings in which he was buired.
A square hole was dug at the
head of Polly Parmcnteis grave,
about laige enough to gi ihe
head alone of the corpse, and
partly filled up and a napkin, re
cognized as the one hound round
her head at her death, was found
at the grave. Mrs. West's grave
was only paitly filled up but
neither Iter's, nor Polly Parmen
ter's were examined. No clue
has as yet been discovered, as to
ihe perpetrator of this outrage.
Appointment by ihe President.
John S. Horner, of Virginia,
Secretary of the Territory of
Michigan, Charles Shaler having
declined the appointment.
We learn that Mr. Horner has
accepted the above mentioned ap
pointment, and that he is now on
his way to Detroit. Globe.
SATURDAY, SEPT. 26, 1335.
CTOur neighbors of the Wash
ington Whig, have made the
amende honorable in regard to
their misrepresentation that we
were a member of the Van Buren
Convention, said to have been
held in that town but refer us
"to the articles which have ap
peared in this paper since the elec
tion, where Mr. Petiigrew is rep
resented as a Jackson man," for
proof that we have practiced "ma
nojuvres" to cover our defeat.
Now, if we mistake not, we can
dissipate the visions of "glory,"
which have of late disturbed the
imaginations of the worthy Edi
tors of the Whig, as readily as we
checked their flights of fancy.

The Cotton Crop. A gentle
man from Marion District, S. C.
informs us that the Cotton Crops
were never more 'promising than
at piemen'.
In ili&dssippi, it is estimated
ihat the crops will amount to
250,000 bales.
In Alabama, though there are
apprehensions of injury to the
crop--, it is said that ihe cultiva
tion has extended so much, that
ihe crop will be 50,000 bales mote

Ohio and Michigan. The Na
tional Intelligencer, of Saturday
says: "It gives us great pleasure
to be able to state that the crisis
which seemed so lately to threaten
actual bloodshed between the cit
izens of Ohio and those of Michi
gan, has passed off peaceably, and I
that all fears of collision between
them may be dismissed, for the
present at least, and we hope for
ever. Letters were received in
this city yesterday, stating that
the troops of Michigan, (about
2000 strong,) after remaining at
Toledo, in the disputed territory,
for two days, without meeting
with any adverse force from Ohio,
or any attempt on the part of the
functionaries of that State to exer
cise oflicial authority, departed on
the 9th inst. on their return to
Detroit; and before any fresh ex
citement could lead to hostilities,
the new Secretary for Michigan
would have arrived at Detroit,
with such instructions doubtless as
will prevent any further hostile
movement before ihe dispute shall
be adjusted by the authority of
Congress or of the Judiciary."

We ate glad to observe the fob
lowing in ihe Washington Globe,
defending Mr. Kendall from the
assaults of the New York Even
ing Post. It shews Ihat the
President is decided in his stand
for Southern rights. Hal. llr.
"In justice to Mr. Kendall's
views, and the propriety of the
course he has adopted, as deline
ated in his abused letters, there is,
we believe, but one opinion here,
and that is one of unqualified ap
probation. It is wonderful tlui
the Pom should be so far deluded
as to suppose ihat Mr. Kendall
would proceed, on a question of
high concern to the Administra
tion to take ground and express
umciaiiy important opinions,
without consulting his associates
in the Government, and ascer
taining that his course would be
approved by the President.

Garrison, in Brighton st. On the
next day it was found that a gal
lows had been erected during the
night, opposite the door of the
house, with two ropes suspended
therefrom. On the cross bar was
an inscription, Judge Lynch's
Law. When the fact came to the
know ledge of the municipal au
thorities, it was ordered to be tak

thors of this proceeding will con
tent themselves with this hint, and
that they will not attempt to rival
the acts of violence which have
been witnessed in some other parts
of the country.
Duels A gentleman who has
just arrived from Rio Janeiro, in
forms us ihat while the Peacock
lay there, no less than three duels
were fought between the Midship
men attached to her. One of the
lads was shot through the lungs
and killed, another had a leg
fractured. All this among friends.
One of the battles had its origin in
a pea jacket. One said goodna
turedly, "Tom that is my pea
jacket you have on." The other
replied with equal good nature
"you lie, it is my pea jacket.''
The jokes were pushed on until
the parties became angry, and
then upon the honor of gentlemen,

rests on those superior officers who
permit the boys placed under
their guardianship to murder
each other thus.
