Adv. BALTIMORE, MAY 16. Captain Atkinson who came passenger in the schooner Cordelia, from Gonaives, reports that President Hover arrived there the day he sailed (cJth of April) from t he Cape, and was received with evident marks of joy and satisfaction. On the principal bridge of the canal which runs through the town, the citizens had erec ted a triumphal arch, decorated in the most beautiful and appropriate style. The whole street from the arch to the President's House, .formerly the King's palarc,) was strewed with green bushes and flowers. $. St. Marks the citizens were also erecting a triumphal arch, and the recep tion of the President at Port au Prince, it was thought, would be equally imposing and satisfactory. Fed. Gaz. TUESDAY MORNING, JUNK 4, 1822. TO COailESrONDENTS. " John I'oorman," we suspect, would not be libelled, should we attach alias to his name. It is true, our acquaintance with J-thn is but slight ; yet we think we ought to know him ; and v e cannot discover in the present character the least resemblance of him. If misfortune has thus destroyed his identity, from our hearts we pity him. But he he John, or he he not, we have given him a birth so snug, that the "pelt ing of the pitiless storm" will never more kit him. A Farmer" shall not be neglected. The present number closes the second volume of the Carolinian. If its pa ges have been instructive and interesting ; if, while they sought to inform the head, they have contained nothing which might corrupt the heart; if in advocating the rights, they have met the approbation, of the people : if they have thus answered, though verv imperfectly, the important ends of a public journal, we have some cause to felicitate ourselves. That we have realized the expectations of all, we have not the vanity to believe ; that we have not come up to our own wishes, humble an they are, we frankly acknowl edge : but that what we have dene falls very little chert of our means, is perhaps no less true. To give respectability and permanence to a newspaper, it must be well f iipported, and ivcU jiaii. Mere f-.atrtnege, unac companied by that which gives value to it, is like the true stamp on base coin, it destroys the hopes, and ruins the pros pects of him who trusts in it. Those, whose only capital is their business, and whose ability to prosecute it, and means cf subsistence, depend upon its regular income,. are of all persons the least able to live upon empty promises, which arc to them like j.n estate in reversion to a per son dying with hunger. Prompt pay ment gives to them, 1s moisture to plants, w he.dlhv and thrifty appearance ; and they wither and droop without it. These few hints, it is hoped, will be sufT.c :icnt. Without regular payments, the editors frankly avow, they cannot con duct the, Carolinian with profit or credit to them selves, or advantage to. their sub scribers. The friends of this establishment, and particularly those who have contributed to the circulation of the paper cr the use fulness of its pages, have our sincere ac knowledgments. A continuance of favor on their part, will excite to. renewed ex ertion on ours. The bill farther to regulate the Post Oflice Department, which passed the House of Representatives, was indefinite ly postponed in the Senate. Wc do not regret this. Though the bill was as un like Mr. Meigs' project, as open undis guised, friendship is to insidious, covert en inity, yet there were some exceptionable J features in it which v.c would like to -cc I removed be feu c it becomes a law. llv. Meigs has no doubt the thanks of all the Pi inters, for hij good will towards them, so emphatically expressed in Lis famous report ; and lie has probably ere this become fully semiblj A their grati tude. Iiut this cue expression of his kind ness is sufficient : for over much care," on his part, would doubtless have the same effect on the Pi inters, as it did on u Lucky Christie's chickens" it would kill the greater part of them. Yc observe in the last Compiler that there are already three candidates on the carpet, to represent the Mother of the commonwealth the town of Halifax- in the next General Assembly of North Carolina. Leaving out the black citizens, (without meaning any ojftJicelo them, how ever,) about one-third of the votes of this famous town are candidates ! Old Sarum itself can but just beat this. The State Hank of North-Carolina has declared a dividend of fjiir per cent, for the the last 6 months. West India trade. The following is an extract from a letter, dated London, Apiil 6, to a gentleman in New -York. The writer is a member of Parliament : " I conclude, the termination of non in tercourse between the United States and our colonics, will be an acceptable meas ure on your side ; as all West India pro duce is to be permitted to be sent direct to the United States, it may lead to an in tercourse of some importance. Your pro duce is to be subject to a moderate colo nial duty, to a fiord some protection to the produce of our North American Colonies; but it will be the same, in American as in British bottoms. I hope it will lead to a better state of things in the West Indies, and a better understanding with your go vernment. It is abi) provable there will soon be an increase of duty heic, paiticu larly on foreign cotton; which, in that case, will be all drawn bark on goods of vnrn, when cxpr'itrd. The amount is not settled, but it rnay be considerable." A.n: in v. .v .v.irr. The following is a comparative view of our Nmw in 1801 and 1822. It will be perceived that we have now onlv tivo more vessels, and one hundred and fiftv-cight more guns, than wc had at thr.t period. An increase scarcely anv thing like com mensurate with our national growth and prosperity, our extended commerce and naval refutation.

Providence has for some time past harbored a hostile disposition toward the S. 15. Gen. Clark, in consequence of her superior running, and to gratify a feeling of jealousy, which wc had supposed could only have been fostered in the breast of the untutored savage, did wilfullv and maliciously tun his boat against the Gen. Clark, whereby he carried away her guards, wheel room and part of the cabin, and killed two per sons on board the same boat. We learn also, that the captain of the Providence is in the hands of justice, and hope if found guilty, will receive the punishment due to iuch zn inhuman enrage. DIED, On the night of the 24th ult imo, Col. James OrinsTBEEr, of Barnwell District, S. C. after a short but painful illness. He was returning from Washington City with hia lady, (whom he had recently married,) to his seat in South-Carolina, after having discharged his duty ai one of the representatives of the people of that state dur ing the first session of the seventeenth Congress, enjoying in anticipation the pleasures of home, and the society of intimate friends and relatives. On the Saturday morning previous, he readied Sal:dury; after eating breakfast, he resumed !i!s -urney ; but ere he had travelled ten miles, he :;- came seriously ill. Having reached Mr. Parley's, ten miles from Salisbury, on the read leading to Charlotte, he was unable to proceed farther ; and then death, that inexorable mon ster, terminated his mortal career. His re mains v erc decently interred, in a neat country church-yard, not more than one quarter of a mile from Mr. Partcc's residence. The afflic tion of a disconsolate widow may be imagined, but not expressed, licmote from her friends ; widowed in a land of strangers ; destined to a community where she is herself a perfect stran ger ; all those flowering prospect. of future happiness, which seemed already to have bloom ed around her, at once destroyed by one wide withering blast : those only who hae shared like ills, can manifest a correspondent sympathy. An acknowledgment is due to Mr. Partee and his family, for their very kind and prompt atten tion to the deceased, during his illness. cOMMCMCATED.
