Mr. A. is op[>osed to a Tariff' I^aw, which shall be imposed for any other object thati revenue. It is supposed by some, that his hostil ity to (ireat Britain, would lead him to plunge this country into a war with that power. To do away this impression, we publish an extract of a letter from him, soon after the conclusion of the peace, received by a gentleman of this city:— Ckas. Cotiritr. lia/ir)^, (near Loivlotu) \tk October^ 1815.—laccfptwith pleasure, and return with sincerity, your c»iUgralulations upon the restoraton of peace betw een the Uni ted States and (ireat Britain, and thank you for your obliging noiice of the share which it was my fortnne to have'mthe accomj)llshment of that event. It was my belief, until the war was' closed, that it would have ix-t n happier for both countries, if it.could have bt-en avoided. So far as it respects our country, 1 am less confident in that opinion now.—The evils of war, are always great; but those resultiiig from peace too long iminterrupt- ed, are equally i;ernictous to the charac ters of nations. i'he late war has tauglit us and our enemies nianv valuable les sons, if they and we have the wisflom to protil l)y them. It has disclosed both to them and lo ourselves, the secrets of our strength and our weakness.

None blit good engineers should be permitted to make roads, and when they are made n a proper manner, the tolls on them nil! pay a good interest for the original Lost. At all events, the intercourse be- wfon the Atlantic and remote states, de- nnnds attention to the sul)ject,and when that intercourse cannot be facilitated by ranals, it must be by good turnpike roads.

On their laughing at the Spaniards for the superstitious reverence they paid to it, the multitude, excited by on‘ of their priests, fell on the oll'enders aiul beat them severely. On the report of this treatment, Blake sent a trumpet to the viceroy to flemand the priest. On the answer of the. vicero.y, that he hal no authority over the priest, Blake replied, ho would not inquire who had the power to send the priest lo him, but, if he was not sent within three hours, he wcjuld burn the rown. ’I'he viceroy was at letigih obliged to comply. On the priest’s justifying fiis conduct on the pet ulant beha\ior of the seamen, lilake an swered, that if he had sent a compUint to him of It, he would have punished the olVviulers severely; but would have all liie world to know that an i'.ngHshman was oidy lo be cliastised ijy an English man.

An aggravated case of Murder occurred in this country, on Sat urday last, on Indian Creek, about twenty miles south of ihls place, 'i'he name of the man killed was Higgins—that of the murderer, David Greer, who for perhaps the last twenty years had lived sechuled from society, near tjie top of the Hald Mountain, 31 or 32 miles south «/f this place. Higgins, at the time of the nmr- der, was under arrest atl. iuled by \Vm. S. Erwin, constable, and a.Mr. Cooper, v. lio were conducting him to a justii e of the pcace for trial, 'i'he cause of the (juarre! was some trivial mattci-, tin.' par ticulars of which It is unnecessary to re late. Ciieer hal shot, from a place of conoeahnent near the road, at Iliggins, and missed his aim j after which he got ahead of the party, un[ierceived, and w'aiied in a waste house on the road, iintil they came up, \vhen ho shot Higgins dead on the spot. The highest credit is due to Mr. Erwin for the intrepidity display ed by him in ari-esting the murderer. Upon seoln.g his prisoner fall, he im mediately burst open the dooj’ of the house where Cireer had concealed him self, and attempted to arrest hlnu A violent scuflle ensued, the hermit’s great strength rendering him a fearful enemy. Besides his rifle, he had armed himself with an axe, and after fighting for some time with the former, which, from the lowness of the joist, could not be used to advantage, he then strove lo get hold of his weapon. In this attempt, Erwin, with a small cudgel, twice knocked him to his knees; yet still apprehensive that his purpose might not be eirected., he di reeled Cooper to shoot him. Coope fired and wxjunded him in the hand, when he submitted and was secui'ed. Notwith standing the hurry and cotdusion of a scene so appalling, Erwin’s resolution anrl self-command appear not to have for a moment forsaken him. On the next day the murderer was safely lodged in the jail at Jonesborough, there to await his trial. It has been thought for main years past that he was the subject of slight mental derangement.
