His Holiness is not ignorant as to entertain the idea for a .oment, that the South-American gov- nnunts would permit such orders to be Airiod into effect, even were he infatua- ;cl enough to issue them ; and he is niibtless well aware, that should his arch- ■ ''fips and bisiiops be bold enough to •oMic thus openly the instigators of se and the advocates of treason, the •v^'Jniss of their office would hardly ,..id 'I'.o'n from the punishment of trai IS.

At this(Vte, March 16, 1825, the Trus tees would farther announce that, in con sequence of the detention of Mr. Lodor, an engagement has been made with Mr. Jnmes C. Carey, former Assistant Teacher in the Raleigh Male Academy. This gentleman holds testimonials of a very flattering nature. When Mr. Lodor ar- iyes, as we still look for him, Mr. Carey will still remain. Our number of Teach ers for the Languages and Sciences, three in number, will then warrant a prepara tion for attending to a very large number of students. We would farther state, that a new set of Globes, on an original plan, lately con structed, together with School Books, comprehending an original and more sim plified method lor studying Geography and Jlstronnmy, have been ordered on from Europe for the use of this Academy. A still more extended patronage of this nstitution, is respectfully solicited from our Sputhei ii community. By order of the Board, J. HAUUIS, Secretary. York Diatricf, S. C. No man of the period at which he liv ed had been nmre concerned in party pol itics than Dean Swift; and his remark pon this subject was, that Party is the hiadncss of many for the benefit of a feio.”— The meaning ol this is, that in all parly trife, the few make use of the many \.o urther their own designs. This is done by inflaming the minds of the people, by perversion of truth, and by personal scurrility. Every insect may, indeed, be permitted to choose the atmosphere in which it will buz, and it freciuently happens that those which have their ori gin in an impure source buz the loudest; but it is a matter well worthy of consid- ration how far any individual, that loves his country and wishes to promote 1>er prosperity, ought to commit himself to such m.adness. The Chief Magistrate of a nation can give no stronger proof of his entire devotion to the interests of his country, than the selection of able men to fill the offices in his gift, without re ference to the party to which they be long. By this means the real talent of the nation is brought into active opera tion, and the public enjoys the advantages of the highest intellectual powers within the scope of the community. A Presi dent who acts otherwise is, in reality, not the Chief Magistrate of the nation, but the creature of a party ; and let that party he called by what denomination it may, it will too frequently mistake the mere impulse of the passions for the promptings of patriotism.—Nat. Jour. It appears, from a statement in one of the Philadelpia papers, that it is intend ed to nominate Mr. Kremer as the next Governor of Pennsylvania.—The paper to which we refer, says--“Giving Mr. Kremer credit for all that his friends can claim for him, '■pIxLin honesty,' it cannot be disguised that he has shown himself a very ignorant man—weak in condescend ing to sign his name to a production he could not indite—and ignorant in pen ning such articles as appeared in the Baltimore papers, with his name, and as form his replies to certain invitations to dinners, suppers, kc. ;” and concludes with this pertinent and piegnant ijues- ti,j„—“ Do not certain membei s of Con gress, u ho aided in the Latin ijuotations of Mr. Kremer’s letter, wish that they had left hmi to his German, before they had thrust him, so mal apropos, over iheir own heads?” Nut. Journal. IMPORTANT DECISION. The jury in the case^of Commonu'talth vs. George Tyson, in the Mayor’s Court of Philadelphia on Tuesday, brought in a verdict of Guilty. The circumstances, which wore the subject of this indict ment and which have caused so miich excitement in the public mind, are gen erally known, and were conclusively es tablished on the trial. I’he indictment of Mr. Tyson, who has hitherto held a respectable station in society, was for ob taining from Mrs. Stewart upwards of SlOOO, under pretence of purchasing for her as a broker, bank stock to that a- mount, but which in reality never was purchased, but converted to the uses of tlie defendant. The felony indicted was constructive larceny, and the great question before the court was whether it was that offence or a mere breach of trust. The jury, applying the facts to the law, were persuaded that the defendant had a feloni ous intention in the transaction, and there fore was guilty under the indictment. Freeman's Journal. Singular Incident.—On Thursday, the 17th ult., anew saw mill nearly complet ed, belonging to Mr. Samuel Ives, situa ted in the town of Roxbury, w as sudden ly started from its foundation, dashed to j)ieces and floated down the current. The accident was occasioned by the rapidity of the stream, and the pressure of the w ater in the dam, of which the mill form ed a part. Three persons were in the mill when it started; two of whom es caped witli but little injury. Mr. Saui (the mill-wright) endeavoured to do the same, but failing in his attempt, extricat ed himself a short distance below and reached the shore with his arm very much broken. Catskill Recorder. A CONSCIENTIOUS ROGUE. Two fellows were lately apprehended at Boston, for passing counterfeit money. One of them, to get his own neck out' of the noose, turned state’s evidence, and on being called on to be sworn, he objected stating that it was against his conscience to take an oath. IMPROVEMENTS. The disposition to extend dur water communication as far as it can be done by artificial means, is hourly gaining strength. W’e observe a notice in a Bos ton paper, under the signature of such names as those of Daniel Webster, Josi- ah Quincy, and William Sullivan, calling a meeting of their fellow-ciiizens of Bos ton, to take into consideration the prac ticability of a canal route between Con cord, New Hampshire, and Plymouth, in the same state, across the country to Connecticut river, a distance of twenty- five miles—or to Baker’s river, which flows into the Merrimac, a distance of twelve miles. By this means a canal communication will be formed between Boston and New Hampshire. \^Balt. American.

We have had opportunity to examine a box of cutlery, made by Mr. Samuel Poo- ley, a native inhabitant of this city, which far surpasses in workmanship any thing of the kind that has fallen within our ob servation. It contained 12 table knives and forks to match, a pair of carving knives and forks to match, twelve deser knives and forks to match, 9 miscellane ous knives and 4 forks, 2 small, razors and 2 larger ones, a penknife, with a tor toise shell handle, weighing 3r} loth of a ffrain, a ])enknifc with a pearl handle, 4i lOths of a grain, and a pair of scissors, weighing rather less than 2-lOths of a grain.-^Thcse various articles are all fin ished in the handsomest n>anner, and ap pear ^o he of fine materials. We under stand that the box, with its contents, is intended to be presented to the President of the United Slates, as a specimen of the progress of skill in domestic manu factures. N. V. Daily Adv. An old bachelor, named William Galt, died lately in Richmond, leaving proper ty, according, to his own estimate, a- mounting to *750,000 dollars. He em igrated from Scotland in 1775, and com menced trading with a pedler’s pack. At that time he did not own an acre of soil, but in 1825, he could ride 15 miles rectilinear on his own ground, the rich est bottom lands on James river. The “Utica Sentinel” of the 29th ult. contains the following Editorial para graph: “ What a fine breeder the old Canal w'ill be 50 years hence ! yielding a •evenue of 9 millions, it toil! enable the State to create a work of the same magnitude once a year •without taxes.’* We have seen a letter from the State Engineer, Hamilton Fulton, Esq. stating that he has accomplished the object of his visit to the north, having contracted for the Dredging Machine lately ordered by the Board of Internal Improvenients. Mr. F. will arrive here in a tew days, for the purpose of commencing immediate operations on the Cape Fear river. A large number of hands will be employed on this work, and it is desirable that ap plications for employment be made on or before the 1st of next month, on w’hich day Mr. Fulton says he will certainly commence the work, whatever may be the state of the river. Fayetteville Observer. Longevity.-^li is a remarkable fact, that there have died in the town of Little- Compton, R.

Troup is again a Candidate for that office, in Georgia. General Clarke is also announced as a candidate. Oliver Wolcott has been re-relected Governor of the State of Connecticut without serious opposition. The Richmond Enquirer grumbles because a brig- was launched at Haltimorc, called the Lady Adams.

This slv attack upon our unsuspecting mer chants was principally from al)road. Some of our neighbors of Richmond and Pe tersburg, having received advices, took ihu sleu'm boat which happened in their wav in the nick of time, got here on Sun day liight, and before'breakfast the iiexi morning, pretty nearly swept the market. in tlie nieun time, as the news began to get ailjat, expresses were started ofl' in every diret tion to pick up all the cotton they could lin;l—and it is said that all the-'small grocers through the country have been drained of every grain ol coffee, at retail prices, much lower than they can now buy it by the bag. Printers’ Convention.—The editor of the Geneva (N. Y.) Palladium proposes a Convention, to be comj)osed of one or more of the printers of each county in the Western District, to be held at Geneva or Canandaigua, for the purpose of tak ing measures to place themselves on footing with other professions, and to re ceive an equivalent for their labors. An old Planter, who has watched the seasons for many yours, jji ogncsticates a cold spell of weathi r from the 1st to the loth of May—possibly a “ killing frost.” He would advise his brother Planters to liusband their seeds a little longer. Cot ton especially is a delicate ])lant; and it is believed, should the approaching crop be nipped by a frost, a sufficiency of seed cannot be obtained to t'Oplant. Less than a fortnight afro, we had a severe snow storm : and as “winter never dies in'the air,” it would be at least cautious to be prepared against an unseasonable visit from “blustering Boreas.” Pit.
